Behind them.

The pursuit continued with Su Yu in the lead.

Suddenly, Su Yu transmitted, "Tiangu, Consort Emeritus, we'll handle Yu Qing. The rest of you will take on Yue Zhan and the devils. There are only five Venerables among them. Kill them all or you guys will be the ones to suffer after this, not me.

"Chaos dragon and eight-winged tiger can deal with Yue Zhan. The myriad races can handle the devils and twins. If you still fail to kill these opponents, you should start considering suicide. Know that things are getting very dangerous for all of you, but not me."

Nobody said anything.

Next, Su Yu turned around and slammed his hammer down. "Kill!"

Boom!

Yu Qing reacted immediately and pierced her spear through the hammer. With a frown, she said, "Sure enough. A foolish choice, Su Yu. Others will benefit from this, not you. You know that Hundred Battle's faction is powerful, yet you're still doing this. Are you willing to submit to Hundred Battle? I believe we are natural allies in this situation."

"Heh, I don't care about all that."

The six on Su Yu's side attacked together. At one point, Thunderstorm had left their group. Yu Qing's expression changed slightly. Damn them! Were they really doing this? But someone else would benefit from this, not them!

In her opinion, Su Yu shouldn't be doing this since Hundred Battle King was a lot more powerful. What was this fool thinking? Nevertheless, she was aware of the crisis she was in. She was two Venerables short. Damn it!

"Withdraw."

Yu Qing started retreating. Unfortunately, the others weren't as fast. They were caught by their opponents before they could go far. The chaos dragon, in particular, was moving much faster than before.

He shot forth before sweeping his tail toward them. The eight-winged tiger roared and pounced on them as well. All these were his enemies so he would be glad to kill any of them. The weaker Yu Qing's side was, the better it would be for him.

One ought to know that the tiger and dragon had initially planned to handle the Master of Law with just the two of them. Their true strength was not to be underestimated. With one sweep of his tail, the chaos dragon pushed Yue Zhan several steps backward.

His true strength was unveiled as he roared, "Die!"

With a flap of his wings, the eight-winged tiger appeared beside Yue Zhan. Yue Zhan panicked. He was strong. Previously, he was able to handle Corona and the Consort Emeritus alone.

But now, the chaos dragon alone was already enough to give him a lot of trouble. The addition of the tiger would make things even more dangerous for him.

He roared furiously, "You lunatics! Since Hundred Battle could make Yue Luo and the others defect, he is definitely far stronger than we can imagine!"

"Kill!"

Boom!

A massive battle broke out.

Tiangu inhaled deeply. Regardless of what the truth was, he wouldn't do wrong by killing some people here. These were all humans. The myriad races were the actual weakest faction here.

It didn’t matter who they killed. Humanity would be the one to lose its powerhouses.

Tiangu said, "Go all out! All heavenly kings and Daofuses are to fight as well!"

With his command, over a hundred Daofuses attacked. The myriad races still had more than ten heavenly kings left. Two or three heavenly kings were good enough to match a Venerable.

People like Sacred Marquis and Corona were a step above the others. At present, the myriad races only needed to face four opponents: the twins and the two devils. Yu Qing and Yue Zhan were occupied. With those two out of the way, how could they fail to kill these four?

They weren't so useless that they couldn't even accomplish something like this.

"Kill!"

Rumble!

A massive battle erupted between them.

***

Fleeing was possible for Yu Qing. But she couldn't leave with Yue Zhan and the others bogged down. Thus, she stopped, allowing Su Yu's group to surround her.

She had a frosty expression.

"Su Yu, this is a foolish choice. So what if you can kill them all? The Hell Gate is already open. The endless experts of holy race will be upon you. You are severing your own path forward."

Su Yu laughed, "Is that so? Truth be told, I'm only here to test the strength of a proper Master of Law. Yu Qing, do you cultivate the myriad daos or the chaos dao?"

Yu Qing said with a frown, "You'll find out soon."

She stabbed her spear forward.

Chaos.

She cultivated the chaos dao.

As the spear shot forth, it was as though reality itself had returned to chaos. It was powerful. Unstoppable. Unbelievable and unimaginable. There was a qualitative difference between this attack and the attacks of Venerables.

Su Yu met the spear with his blade, but the blade instantly shattered as the spear continued onward. The attacks of March and the others arrived. Giant Axe's axe shattered instantly. March's bamboo stick shattered instantly.

Heavenbridge Marquis started teleporting the momentum of the spear away. Fat Ball started devouring the chaos power around the spear. Heavenly Fate Marquis pointed, displacing the spear. And finally, Fat Ball's shoe dropped down, stopping the advance of the spear.

All six of them turned solemn.

This was way too powerful.

Su Yu and Fat Ball were by no means weak. Yet the six of them was barely able to stop a single spear strike from her.

Su Yu raised his brow and said, "A Master of Law is indeed stronger than imagined."

"Die!"

Once again, the spear shot forth toward Su Yu. Su Yu's presence swelled as he took in the power of myriad daos before swinging his blade forth.

Boom!

This time, his blade did not shatter immediately. The intense battle continued.

Yu Qing did not intend to drag the fight out. While fighting, she roared, "Retreat! Do not stick around!"

That was what the others wanted as well.

But was that possible?

Nope.

They were facing too many enemies.

Their opponents enjoyed the numerical advantage in terms of Venerables. There was also a large number of heavenly kings and Daofuses, giving them the experience of what it meant to have a bunch of ants kill an elephant.

The twins roared as they struggled to flee, but they couldn't break free from Corona and Sacred Marquis. On top of the two, there was also an encirclement formed by the nether and phoenix Venerables alongside more than ten heavenly kings. Escape was impossible.

The twins despaired.

They had not imagined that they would be in such dire straits even with Yu Qing out.

Finally, a certain spark of inspiration struck the two. They joined their hearts, roared, and burned their entire beings before rushing back in the direction of their territory. The myriad race powerhouses gave chase.

Su Yu was just about to intercept the twins when he noticed something and frowned. They were trying to summon more powerhouses out of the gate. That much was obvious to him. That would only add to the chaos, but it didn't matter to him. Things were already messy enough. Perhaps an even bigger mess would only be better for him.

Suddenly--Boom!

Two rumbles rang out. The moment the twins moved near enough to their territory, they self-detonated. A bunch of nearby heavenly kings and Daofuses died as massive shockwaves swept through the world. A powerful force surged into the sky before seemingly vanishing into nothingness.

Deep inside Control King's territory, the Hell Gate shook slightly.

An ancient being behind the scene spoke, "I'm going! Su Yu killed me twice! I'm killing him with my own hands!"

"Matron dragon, are you not afraid of dying even with your main body?"

"Hmph!"

The matron dragon insisted on being the one to leave.

They couldn't forgive Su Yu. Of course, there was still not enough energy for them. However, the gate had opened slightly more than before. If a few more people died, they would be able to step through the gate as well.

***

The twins had self-detonated.

That dealt a heavy blow to the myriad races. A bunch of heavenly kings and Daofuses were caught in the explosion and died. Even the nether and phoenix Venerables suffered considerable injuries from the explosion.

Fortunately, Corona and Sacred Marquis had moved to support them or the myriad races would probably lose even Venerables to this explosion.

Elsewhere, the two devil Venerables were under the assault of Venerable Dao, Sacred Source Marquis, Venerable Dragon, Tiangu, and Consort Emeritus. Venerable Scrape sighed.

Things had developed in an entirely unexpected direction.

Purple Cloud Marquis had died right after arriving. Yue Luo and Yue Xiao had betrayed them. Yue Hao had been instantly killed. One variable after another emerged, killing one Venerable after another.

If it weren't for all these sudden changes, the devils and Control King's lineage together would be strong enough to contend against Su Yu and the myriad races. Alas, it was too late for regret.

Celestial Devil transmitted, "Scrape, you should leave. Go to Human Mountain and leave with our people."

"You..."

"I'll die alone. That's better than all of us dying together. We're doing all this for the devil race. Perhaps we shouldn't have placed our trust on those fellows who have yet to return, including the Devil Pseudo Emperor. The devils from the Lower Realm are decent. Find them and help them grow. We have...indeed grown old."

Celestial Devil sounded bitter. Suddenly, his aura stirred. Tiangu and the others hurriedly pulled away. A surge of aura erupted before--Boom!

Yet another explosion erupted.

Venerable Scrape took the chance to rip space apart and flee. Some wanted to chase but stopped immediately. The sudden explosion had nearly killed Sacred Source Marquis.

Tiangu roared, "Don't chase!"

Sacred Source Marquis had blocked a large part of the damage from the explosion for him. He wouldn't have been injured so heavily otherwise.

Three Venerables had died one after another. Venerable Scrape had fled.

With a roar, Yue Zhan sent the chaos dragon flying with a punch before saying, "Run, Senior Sister!"

Not far away, Yu Qing sent March flying with a spear strike before pushing Su Yu back with another. Then, she shot away with Yue Zhan in tow. While flying in the Hell Gate's direction, she coldly said, "If you want to kill us so badly, come."

Once again, the Hell Gate was shaking. A powerful presence started leaking out of it.

The matron dragon's voice rang out, "Su Yu, wait for me!"

They would be out soon.

Celestial Devil had self-detonated and killed several Daofuses. The deaths of so many powerhouses had further accelerated the release of a second powerhouse from the gate.

Su Yu raised his brow as he looked at Tiangu and the others. Their losses had been heavy. Sacred Source Marquis, Venerable Nether, Venerable Phoenix, Venerable Moon, and Venerable Dragon had all been injured. Even now, Venerable Moon was still without a body.

A bunch of heavenly kings and Daofuses had died as well.

Not giving Su Yu the chance to say anything, Tiangu yelled, "Retreat! Back to the Myriad Race Mountain! We will seal the mountain away!"

And then, a mad escape started.

Su Yu's expression changed slightly. "Tiangu—"

Tiangu didn't even bother looking back as he said, "The myriad races will be entering seclusion starting today. We will be sealing ourselves off from the world. If anyone wishes to attack us in our place of seclusion, bring it on. The myriad races will cease all offensive actions starting today. If anyone wishes to start a battle with us, you will pay with your lives."

In the blink of an eye, over a hundred powerhouses were gone. Tiangu was no longer interested in talking to Su Yu.

Control King's lineage had been weakened sufficiently. They had even been forced back to the Hell Gate. This was enough for Tiangu. He needed to return and reinforce their defenses around the Human Mountain.

These humans were too devious. They had lost so many people, yet Su Yu hadn't even agreed to release the restriction. He would no longer cooperate with Su Yu. Damn that bastard!

Since they still had a decent number of Venerables, they should prioritize recovery and tightening up their alliance. That was their only way forward.

Su Yu cursed inwardly.

Fuck!

Why was everyone running away? They could still kill Yu Qing! What a pity. The eight-winged tiger and chaos dragon looked at each other before fleeing deep into chaos as well. They were too wary of Su Yu.

Suddenly, Su Yu's expression changed.

"Leave!"

With everyone gone, he had to leave as well. Otherwise, he would be the one to suffer if Yu Qing decided to return. The myriad races and chaos beasts were very treacherous. With everyone gone, Su Yu had nobody to use as cannon fodder. He sighed with regret. How were those people using their brains?

Wouldn't it be nice for them to serve as his tools? After all, he might decide to spare them if he was satisfied enough with their performance.

Damn it!
