Meanwhile, Su Yu was wondering about one thing.Were they acting as well? Or were they being serious?
He was clearly the one who had given Great Yuan King a beating here. Great Yuan King was the one who had suffered. Meanwhile, these people were acting like he had been wronged...to the point where it would be wrong for him to not feel the same.
And thus, he released an expression of fury, sorrow, and disappointment as well. Yes. He had returned to help humanity. How could they treat him this way?
A sense of shame engulfed some of the human Invincibles. Yes. Su Yu had done so well out there. Yet the moment he returned, he suffered an attack by Great Yuan King. What if he were weaker? He would have died earlier.
Even so, Great Zhou King and Great Xia King were still preventing Su Yu from killing. Wasn't this the same as bullying him with numbers? This was truly excessive. And thus, more and more people were swayed and started empathizing with Su Yu.
Su Yu and the multiple character faction were clearly their allies, but now, they were being forced to leave yet again. It was likely that there would no longer be any future cooperation between humanity and them as well.
At that moment, Great Yuan King's expression changed slightly said, "I am the one to blame here. Su Yu, you feel wronged, right? I will shoulder my mistake. This is unrelated to anyone. Do not let this end the alliance between the ancient cities and humanity. If I were to awaken as a death spirit in the future, you could summon me to fight under your banner."
Then, he sent a palm attack toward his own head.
He was surprisingly decisive.
With all three of his bodies around, he had lost control of his emotions and attacked Su Yu. Because of him, the alliance between humanity and the ancient cities was on the verge of collapsing. This would affect the survival of humanity as a whole.
He could not allow that to happen.
Thus, he decided to end the matter with his life.
Suddenly, Su Yu threw a punch and sent him flying.
With a sneer, Su Yu said, "So be it. I won't lower myself and keep harping on this issue. Your death would most probably turn me into a villain of humanity. They would paint me as a villain who had forced a founding king into suicide. What a great plan, Great Yuan King. With this, you would die a hero. Meanwhile, I would end up as a villain of all ages."
Great Yuan King blanked out slightly and said, "No, that wasn't my intention..."
But that made so much sense!
He had never considered it that way.
True. The masses would always be lenient toward the dead. His death would twist the story and make Su Yu the villain of this story. Humanity would remember him as a villain for eternity.
Great Yuan King didn't know what to do anymore. Was he supposed to live on? He couldn't die, but Su Yu's anger must be appeased as well. Did he not have the freedom to even die?
Not far away, Great Zhou King's face twitched.
Incredible.
The kid had somehow twisted the narrative completely.
Su Yu sneered and said, "Whatever. I don't care anymore. I'm only here to celebrate my father's birthday. I will leave after the celebration. How laughable. I suppose you lot are only good for politics and nothing else. So be it. Enjoy your little games while humanity is still around. I doubt it will last for long."
Then, he started walking away. His voice reverberated everywhere, "I, Su Yu, do not deign to associate myself with the likes of you."
"..."
With that one statement, he was scolding all of humanity.
Even so, not a single human could find a retort.
They started believing that the leadership of the holy land...might really mean nothing for him.
Such an incident had happened during the very first day of the conference. How laughable. This was truly a joke. A founding king had actually attempted to kill him during the conference. This was something the myriad races would be happy to see.
Instead of further solidifying their alliance, a conflict had arisen between humanity and Su Yu.
With an unsightly expression, Great Yuan King gnashed his teeth and said, "Su Yu, I am the one to blame here. Why let the entire humanity suffer your wrath? I, Yuan Qifeng, is willing to be punished for my mistake. Please continue attending the conference. Don't abandon humanity because of my mistake."
He was basically begging Su Yu to continue attending the conference.
At that moment, Great Zhou King sighed and said, "Mayor Su, please be lenient with us. We will naturally give you a satisfactory answer for that incident. Please continue attending the conference."
Su Yu clearly wasn't willing to let the matter go before he bowed.
Fine. Fine. Great Zhou King decided to satisfy Su Yu's desire.
What was the point of this?
From afar, Su Yu sneered and said, "I'll think about it. I only hope that nothing will happen during my father's birthday celebration."
"That is only natural." Great Zhou King looked at Great Yuan King helplessly before looking at the others. With a sigh, he said, "Let's disperse for now. That was truly...sigh."
He sounded extremely helpless.
He said, "I'll have a chat with Su Yu. Old Xia, check up on Old Yuan. See if there's a way to help with his injuries. Su Yu...is already unrivaled beneath the ninth degree."
With a final sigh, he left as well.
The surrounding people were left with complicated emotions.
A battle had erupted out of nowhere. Great Yuan King had lost two bodies. Su Yu had departed in anger. The multiple character faction had lost all hope on humanity. The conference had ended without a conclusion.
Sigh.
This was truly a chaotic time.
As for the myriad race visitors, they all had odd expressions as they witnessed everything.
Humanity had not suffered much in the recent conflicts, but somehow, an internal strife had erupted among themselves. Great Yuan King had nearly died. This was actually a major loss for humanity as they had essentially lost a seventh-degree Eternal from that one battle.
Numerous messages were sent out of the Human Realm through various channels.
They had to report this to their respective races as soon as possible.
This was major news.
This would most likely be extremely amusing for the myriad races.
The myriad races had not even done anything. Humanity had fought among themselves for seemingly no reason. Humanity should really do this more.
***
Su Residence.
Su Yu sat down and took a sip of tea. Right at that moment, Great Zhou King appeared before him with a flicker and smiled. "That was all a misunderstanding..."
Su Yu sneered and said, "Misunderstanding? Your Majesty, I helped Great Yuan King with his issue. You know the truth. Where is my reward?"
"So you saw through my plan?" Great Zhou King laughed.
Su Yu laughed as well. "Do I look like a fool?"
"No." Great Zhou King said, "Therefore, through that incident, those from Liu City have all turned into heroes. Isn't this a good thing?"
"Tsk. That was nothing. It merely happened because you attempted to steal the reward for my hard work. I wouldn't have bothered otherwise."
Great Zhou King laughed and said, "If I didn't do that, you wouldn't have pushed the matter to those from Liu City, turning them all into the heroes of humanity. That was a part of my plan as well."
"Heh."
"Heh."
The two smiled at each other, but neither said more about the matter. Then, Great Zhou King turned solemn and asked, "So? Do you have an answer?"
"Yes. Silk Destroying King."
Great Zhou King frowned. After a long while, he said, "If I told you that...it might not be him, would you believe me?"
Su Yu frowned and said, "He has the bloodline of Control King. The same bloodline of the traitor. I saw the bloodline symbol of the traitor with my own eyes before."
Once again, Great Zhou King sank into silence. After a long while, he said, "If I told you that the traitor is Heavenly Seal instead of Wang Hu, would you believe me?"
"Why so?"
Su Yu had verified the bloodline himself. Why would Great Zhou King have a different answer? How could Great Zhou King be sure?
After some time, Great Zhou King answered, "Intuition."
Su Yu laughed, "Intuition?"
"Yes!" Great Zhou King said, "Su Yu, I am confident in my intuition. Yes, everything points at Wang Hu, but I...have a feeling it's Heavenly Seal. It is very likely that Wang Hu isn't the traitor."
"Is your intuition the only reason for you to believe this?"
Great Zhou King thought about it and said, "Yes. I investigated Heavenly Seal before, but I found nothing. However, I can't shake off the feeling that he's the traitor. If you doubt me, let's see Wang Hu together. Give him a chance. Can you do this?"
Su Yu raised his brow.
Great Zhou King inhaled deeply and said, "Just trust me once. Heavenly Seal is most likely the traitor. Wang Hu...might have been schemed against. He might not even know it."
"A scheme?"
Great Zhou King nodded and said, "Yes. I would have suspected him less before this, but after your confirmation, something felt extremely wrong to me."
Great Zhou King stopped to organize his thoughts and continued, "Let's see Wang Hu together. We will walk the River of Time with him. If he refuses, I will investigate his sea of willpower by force. If he resists even that, I will take him for a traitor and execute him."
Su Yu was quite surprised. Why was Great Zhou King so sure?
Intuition?
Su Yu considered the matter and nodded. "Sure. Let's do it. If he resists, kill him. You will do it. I don't want to be the bad guy here."
"Sure."
Seeing how confident Great Zhou King looked, Su Yu raised his brow. Was there really a twist here? But he had investigated the matter personally. He was certain that Silk Destroying King carried Control King's bloodline.
Great Zhou King said nothing else and vanished with a flicker.
Before long, he reappeared near the formation. Great Ming King and the others were still busy working on it. Great Zhou King beckoned at Silk Destroying King and said, "Wang Hu, come over here. You can be considered a teacher of Su Yu as well. Come with me. Let's talk to him together."
Silk Destroying King said helplessly, "Are you sure he sees me as a teacher as well? Don't you know his temper?"
"Just give it a try."
"Fine." Silk Destroying King sighed again and said, "The formation was badly damaged by their fight. I don't even know if we can still repair it. Great Yuan King...sigh."
He sighed with regret and left with Great Zhou King.
***
Su Residence.
Great Zhou King arrived with Silk Destroying King.
Right after arriving, Great Zhou King asked, "Wang Hu, what bloodline do you have?"
Silk Destroying King asked warily, "Why do you ask?"
"Answer me." Great Zhou King frowned and asked, "Don't you know your own bloodline?"
Silk Destroying King laughed and asked, "Why are you being so serious here? I...have the bloodline of Peace King."
Great Zhou King's voice turned cold as he said, "Must you force my hand?"
At that, Silk Destroying King gave Great Zhou King a deep gaze. Then, he looked at Su Yu, who was seated there silently. After a long while, his face turned helpless as he answered, "I have the mixed bloodline of Control King and Blazing Flame Devil Pseudo Emperor."
Su Yu looked at Great Zhou King and shrugged.
Great Zhou King asked, "Mixed bloodline?"
Silk Destroying King nodded, "Yes. Did you find out? Sure enough, some secrets can't be kept forever."
He sounded defeated.
"It has been so many years. Nobody cared. Why...are you asking this all of a sudden?"
Silk Destroying King said weakly, "I admit that I'm a mixbreed. But I was born a human. I have never considered joining the devils."
He sighed and said, "Did you...create all that mess...just to investigate my bloodline? There was no need. Why implicate Great Yuan King for this?"
With yet another sigh, Silk Destroying King said, "You have your answer now. If you wish to kill me for this...so be it."
Su Yu raised his brow. Great Zhou King's frown deepened.
Su Yu chuckled and said, "Silk Destroying King, you had the chance to kill me back during Chen Yong's trial. Why didn't you kill me?"
"..."
Silk Destroying King gave Su Yu a long stare. Finally, he said, "I might be a mixbreed, but must I kill you because of that? Su Yu, did you overestimate your importance? Why would I kill you for no reason?"
Su Yu asked, "But why did you stab the fifth principal on his back?"
"The fifth principal?"
"Ye Batian?"
Silk Destroying King blanked out slightly before saying, "That wasn't me!"
Just then, Great Zhou King sighed and said, "Su Yu...please have more trust in us. I believe that this whole thing...might really be a misunderstanding. We must investigate properly or Silk Destroying will die for the wrong reason."
He had a strong feeling that Silk Destroying King wasn't the traitor. They had to make sure of it before taking action.
Great Zhou King inhaled deeply and said, "I might have been mistaken since the very beginning. How are you sure that what you saw was the truth? Who told you that the descendant of Control King must be the traitor? Is there a guarantee that a mixbreed must be a traitor?"
"Traitor?" Silk Destroying King blanked out before saying, "You...I'm not a traitor! Yes, I hid my identity because I'm a mixbreed, but I have never betrayed humanity! What is the meaning of this?"
Su Yu frowned and said nothing. A mixbreed who wasn't the traitor. Instead, Heavenly Seal King was the real traitor. Why was the old fox so confident about this?
