After a long silence, Great Zhou King inhaled deeply and said, "I will."

Wan Tiansheng smiled and said, "I believe Great Zhou King understands what I'm saying. In an era of chaos, a saint is required. The rotten, the corrupt, the outdated, all shall be swept away. We shall clean the filth and give humanity a bright future. This epoch is a new start. Everything is new."

Great Zhou King sighed and said, "I understand."

"Don't be too serious, Great Zhou King. I am merely speaking candidly about what I feel."

Next, Wan Tiansheng looked around and bowed slightly before saying, "I was at fault for killing your descendants back then. There are rules for everything. Back then, I was not the enforcer. Thus, I was wrong for taking on the duty of enforcement without being an enforcer. I overstepped."

He claimed the mistake of overstepping, but he did not claim that killing those people was a mistake.

"According to the human laws at the time, enforcing without the role of an enforcer is punishable by..."

Suddenly, Wan Tiansheng waved his hand. Instantly, ten thousand swords appeared in the sky before raining down upon him. One by one, they stabbed into his body. The expressions of the surrounding Eternals changed.

Below, numerous people exclaimed in surprise. Great Zhou King frowned, while Su Yu remained silent.

Every inch of Wan Tiansheng's body now had a sword embedded in it, apart from his head. With a pale face, he smiled and said, "I have been punished in accordance with the human laws. I no longer owe humanity anything. From now on, I will no longer feel any guilt toward humanity. It doesn't matter if you acknowledge my appointment. Public affairs will remain public affairs, and personal affairs will remain personal affairs. If you're still unhappy with me, talk to me in private without the baggage of our official positions."

By punishing himself, he had shattered the chains around him. He did not believe that he was wrong in killing all those people. His only mistake was that he had carried out the duty of an enforcer without being an enforcer. But now, he was already an enforcer.

Nobody said anything.

After a long silence, Su Yu said, "Director Wan and everyone else, this matter ends here. If you wish to take your revenge in private, you are free to issue a challenge. You can fight to the death or merely spar. I won't stop you.

"As cultivators, dying in a challenge is simply part of the risk. A new year is coming. In about a month, year 352 will be over. Tomorrow, we will change the calendar. The Anping Calendar shall end in the year 352. Anping (peace and calm) is no longer appropriate as peace is over. The following year will be the first year of New Domain (Yu) calendar."

The hearts of numerous people thumped. The changing of the calendar.

The first year of New Domain.

Su Yu continued, "With a new year, many new things are coming. A new world. New policies. And a new beginning. We can commemorate the past, but do not live in the past."

"Emperor Yu is wise."

Wan Tiansheng was the first to bow. The numerous soldiers shouted as well, "Emperor Yu is wise!"

The Anping Calendar was coming to an end.

Over 350 years had passed since the founding of the various prefectures. Prior to that, humanity had fought in a war of nearly one hundred years. After the founding, a new calendar was established, signifying the start of an era. And in about a month, that era would end.

Only a small number of people understood that this was Su Yu's way of telling them that Anping Calendar wasn't the only thing that was over. He was also severing the future from the previous nine epochs.

Right at that moment, the fortune of humanity started roiling. Then, it surged, growing even stronger than before. Up above, Su Yu's projection appeared again. This time, it was clearer than before. It was visible from all corners of the Human Realm.

***

Once again, the projections of various experts appeared outside the various realms.

What was it this time?

Why couldn't Su Yu stay idle for once?

***

Human Realm.

Emperor Yu's Court.

Su Yu did not remain in the Eastrift Valley.

Only a few individuals were in the palace. Suddenly, a playful, smiling Lan Tian appeared. When noticing the solemn Su Yu, the silent Great Zhou King, and the pale Wan Tiansheng, he withdrew his smile and carefully sat down beside Wan Tiansheng. He even sat upright, looking incomparably solemn and serious.

Su Yu did not smile at Lan Tian. He was terrified that a smile would trigger Lan Tian's madness. Thus, he decided to stay solemn and strict. They were here to discuss serious matters!

Su Yu said, "At present, we have two important matters to prioritize. Firstly, the various tokens must be planted as soon as possible. Secondly, I need a human expert in the Death Realm, someone to seal any death qi fluctuations.

"The aura of that person must not be too powerful as that might throw the Death Realm into chaos as well. Great Zhou King is good at this, and he is also capable of teleportation. He can help teleport us as we give chase to our fleeing targets."

Great Zhou King asked, "Wasn't I supposed to seal the realms from the outside?"

"Great Ming King can do that." Su Yu said, "Great Ming King is on the verge of achieving Daofuse. He will take on this task. As for me, I must go to the Death Realm personally to open the death tunnels."

Great Zhou King thought about it and nodded, "I understand."

Su Yu looked at Wan Tiansheng and said, "After Great Zhou King's departure, you will keep watch in the Human Realm and keep the calm, Director Wan."

"Noted."

Wan Tiansheng appeared rather calm.

Su Yu looked at Lan Tian and said, "Deputy Director Lan, be very careful. Make sure to hide these tokens well. This is very important. They each hold the fortune of humanity. Additionally, make sure you hide them near the Daofuses undetected. We can only do this once before things become suspicious."

Seeing that the atmosphere was so serious, Lan Tian could only reply seriously, "Okay."

"In that case, let's not waste time. I will gather the hous and iron devourers in preparation for a secret attack on the Fate Realm. Director Wan and Great Zhou King, our main goal won't be killing any Daofuses this time. Of course, I don't mind killing a few if there is a chance. We will act depending on how the situation unfolds. Give up on killing them if it risks death on our side.

"Follow my plan closely. Do not act rashly. I want to lead a complete team in the attack against the Upper Realm. I don't want to lose five Daofuses just to kill ten Daofuses. Not to mention five, I'm not even willing to lose one.

"If a zero casualty victory is possible, there is no need to use the lives of our Daofuses to trade for the victory. Some might say that exchanging one for ten is worth it, but in my eyes, that's bullshit. Losing even one will weaken our forces. And how are we supposed to contend against the Upper Realm weakened?"

Great Zhou King wanted to speak, but he remained silent after some hesitation. He felt like Su Yu cared too much about casualties. Was that possible in a war?

Su Yu did not explain more. If he was the weaker party, there was no helping it. But at present, his side had a massive advantage in the Lower Realm. In that case, why shouldn't he aim for zero casualties?

"I won't say more. I'll go look for some people. The moment those Daofuses are lured away, it will be time for you to act, Lan Tian."

"Okay."

***

The meeting ended shortly after. Su Yu left in a hurry after noticing that Lan Tian was trying to speak to him.

He had considered taking Lan Tian on a trip to the River of Time as well, but the time wasn't right yet. He was worried that Lan Tian would grow suddenly, resulting in the fluctuations of the auras of all his clones. That would expose all his hidden clones amid the myriad races.

The likelihood of that was very high as Su Yu had a feeling that Lan Tian was most likely following a singular dao, a dao shared by his various clones. Thus, he had to set the matter of taking Lan Tian to the River of Time aside for now.

***

Shortly after.

The Iron Devourer Pseudo Emperor met Su Yu. He was informed that they would be attacking the Fate Realm after three days. The Pseudo Emperors of the hous and spatial beasts were informed of the same.

The primordial giants were not included. Su Yu had not bothered to visit them. With the three Pseudo Emperors, Su Yu himself, Great Zhou King, the book spirit, the tea plant, and the furballs.

All in all, he was preparing to deploy ten Daofuses on top of himself for this mission. Wan Tiansheng would watch over humanity during the attack. As for Great Qin King and the others, they would be on standby in Grand Dream City.

Officially, there were two Daofuses in the Fate Realm. Su Yu did not know if this was accurate, but he didn't care either. He would not fight inside the realm. After all, most of his allies weren't humans. It would be stupid to have them fight under a suppressive force.

They would attack from the outside. And the myriad races would come to help the fate race. If not, they would probably approach the Human Realm to force the attacking force to withdraw.

***

While Su Yu was preparing for the attack.

Fate Realm.

Heavenly Fate Mountain.

The Fate Pseudo Emperor was performing a quick divination with his fingers. A short moment later, several bloody lines appeared on his hand. He healed himself without a change in his expression.

Then, he looked up at the sky and sighed inwardly. Trouble was coming. The trouble would either come from the humans or the Upper Realm. It occurred to him that neutrality was no longer possible in this epoch.

"The time to make a choice has arrived. One time. Just one more time."

Fate Pseudo Emperor had a heavy feeling. He would observe one last time before making a choice. The choice of the fate race was extremely important.

After all, they held the entrance to the Upper Realm. With the suppressive force in the realm, anyone controlling the realm would hold a major advantage over the other races. The myriad races would not allow them to side with humanity.

But siding with the myriad races would also invite the attack of humanity. It was only a matter of time.
