Chapter 2203: Su Yu's Fury (1)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Rather than relying on others, it was better to be self-reliant. That had always been Su Yu's belief. This belief was mostly shaped by the environment he grew up in.

Since he was weak, he only had himself to rely on. First, he relied on the Book of Time. Liu Wenyan was crippled, and Bai Feng was unreliable with his obsession with research and nothing else. At first, Bai Feng's strength was still sufficient as a backer. But the moment Su Yu grew into a Skysoar himself, Bai Feng hadn't been able to catch up.

In fact, Bai Feng had been incapable of backing Su Yu even when Su Yu was still at the Mental Tempering Stage. Even back then, Su Yu was already facing Sunmoons. And then, Nan Wujiang and Yun Chen appeared to back him, but he felt distant from them. He could never make himself rely on them.

Liu Wenyan and Bai Feng were his teachers. His family. Wan Tiansheng and Lan Tian were his fellow daoists. His friends. They were very close to him, but they were still different from Liu Wenyan and Bai Feng.

These days, Su Yu rarely visited Bai Feng and the others. He was happy to see them focus on research.

At Su Yu's current level, Bai Feng's talent was clearly insufficient to keep up anymore. Su Yu couldn't get too involved with Bai Feng, as that would probably result in a funeral for Bai Feng not long after.

***

Su Yu did not have too many thoughts in his mind.

He returned to his world again. He didn't take too many people with him, but he still took Fat Ball, Lan Tian, and Heavenbridge as a precaution.

That would be enough.

Heavenbridge could help with their escape at any time, Lan Tian could help with instant message transmissions, and Fat Ball was strong.

All three were Venerables. Coupled with Su Yu, they would be able to put up a fight against Martial Emperor even after he was released from his seal. At the very least, they would be able to last long enough for reinforcements to arrive.

It was time to release Martial Emperor.

Shortly after, Su Yu returned to the Death Realm.

***

Death Realm.

Martial Emperor was waiting.

Would...Su Yu return?

Sure, he could still break free without Su Yu, but it would probably take him a year or two to accomplish that without help. Since he was now fully awake, he could no longer stand his current state. He wanted to leave as soon as possible. He looked up at the sky expectantly as he waited.

Martial Emperor was worried that Su Yu would suddenly change his mind. What if Su Yu suddenly decided that this wasn't worth it? To give one hope before crushing the hope. That would be extremely annoying.

Suddenly, he manifested himself again and opened his tunnel wide. Not far away, several figures shot over.

Martial Emperor blinked and asked, "Did the dumbfuck Heavenbridge break through?"

"..."

Silence descended.

Martial Emperor rarely cursed. Thus, Su Yu was quite surprised by the reaction. Perhaps he was simply being truthful with his feelings. He probably found the excessively talkative Heavenbridge annoying as well.

Heavenbridge Marquis' face stiffened slightly. But next, he smiled and said, "Isn't that normal? Martial Emperor, have you never heard that even a dog has its day—"

Martial Emperor said, "I'll swat you to death even if you're a Master of Law."

What an annoying fellow.

He cut Heavenbridge off, not giving Heavenbridge the chance to keep talking.

Su Yu laughed. "You are old neighbors. You have been together for over a hundred thousand years. Why the aggression? You should be quite close to each other after all these years together."

Martial Emperor cursed inwardly, while Heavenbridge smiled without saying anything. Who would deign to have a good relationship with that guy? This was the thought both of them shared.

They had been neighbors for many years, but they weren't on the same side.

When Martial Emperor looked at the others, he exclaimed with surprise when he saw another familiar face, "You broke through as well?"

Lan Tian smiled, "Yes. Thank you for your previous support, Martial Emperor."

Martial Emperor snorted. Support? Back when Lan Tian first entered the Luminous Domain Mansion, a resonance was triggered between the two. But that couldn't be considered a form of support.

This guy was still a Sunmoon back then. But even he had grown to such a level. Martial Emperor was greatly astonished. Previously, Heavenbridge was only around tier two or tier three. And now, he was already a Venerable. Lan Tian had also grown rapidly.

There was also that dog! When Martial Emperor looked at Fat Ball, Fat Ball returned the gaze curiously. When Martial Emperor narrowed his eyes, Fat Ball grew confused. This was his first close encounter with Martial Emperor.

The two had seen each other from afar previously, but this was their first time meeting face-to-face.

After a while, Fat Ball asked doubtfully, "Have we met before?"

Martial Emperor frowned and said, "Divine sun devouring hound. We met once. We fought once back then. Eventually, you fought Culture King and had your connection to the chaos severed by him. Did you recultivate?"

This time, it was Su Yu's turn to be astonished.

"You...fought Fat Ball before?"

Su Yu was greatly surprised.

Martial Emperor said, "What of it? This fellow must be the divine sun devouring hound from back then. He used to be the strongest active chaos powerhouse back then."

"What are you talking about?" Su Yu asked doubtfully.

Martial Emperor frowned. "Don't you know everything? The Hell Gate was broken several times during the primordial past. All these powerful beasts, including the heavenly desolate beast, had actually escaped from the Hell Gate.

"At the time, chaos was no longer capable of supporting the existence of beings like them. Thus, some opted to fuse into the dao of the Myriad Realms, such as the heavenly desolate beast. Some were unwilling and lingered in the chaos like the divine sun devouring hound. The hound was the final chaos beast to not switch his dao back then."

Su Yu asked, "You mean...that there is also a restriction to the chaos?"

He had no idea. He did not know much about the eight-winged tiger and chaos dragon, but the sole chaos cultivator in his camp, the tea plant, had barely entered the second tier. She was still very far from a Master of Law.

Suddenly, Martial Emperor started feeling smug again. So there was something Su Yu didn't know, after all.

He sneered smugly and said, "Of course. Chaos itself is sealed. The real Chaos Era is behind the Hell Gate. Since it has been sealed away, that era is naturally over. An era that has ended can never produce another supreme being.

"Back then, the gate was broken, releasing a large number of chaos beasts. They attempted to restore chaos, but they crashed right into the strongest humanity and myriad races. The ending is clear for all to see. The numerous chaos beasts, such as the heavenly desolate beast, bowed and became a part of the myriad races. The stubborn ones were mostly killed. Only a small number remained in the chaos, such as the divine sun devouring hound. But even the hound was relegated to a guard dog.

Hearing that, Fat Ball looked at Su Yu doubtfully. Su Yu frowned slightly and said, "Are you saying that at the end of the primordial past, Fat Ball was actually a supreme being?"

"This is most likely the same dog." Martial Emperor nodded, "The dao is different, but the essence is the same. However...I can see that this dog might have undergone rebirth."

Fat Ball seemed unbothered about that, but Su Yu looked at Fat Ball curiously. Previously, the chaos dragon had talked about how strong the divine sun devouring hound was, but Su Yu had not given much thought to it.

But Martial Emperor was saying that he had fought the hound before. He wasn't the type to remember a weak opponent for so many years. In any case, a weak opponent wouldn't even survive a clash against him.

Since Fat Ball had survived the clash and even forced Culture King to personally deal with him, he was clearly not weak. Eventually, he was subdued and lost all his memories. What happened?

Su Yu did not try too hard to guess the truth. Rather, he said, "In short, the chaos cultivators can't actually break through outside the gate. Is that so?"

"Yeah."

Martial Emperor was in a great mood. He finally knew something Su Yu didn't. He explained, "Exactly. But this dog has switched to a different dao. That restriction won't apply to him."

Su Yu nodded. No wonder the chaos dragon was still not a Master of Law despite his strength. So he was stuck. In that case, the so-called chaos will the two beasts had been dying to get must be very important. They must require it for their breakthrough.

Su Yu would have no need for it himself, but someone on his side could use it. The tea plant. The tea plant, book spirit, big tree, and Fat Ball were all left behind by Culture King. When Su Yu first met them, he was still quite weak. They had played a critical role in his subsequent growth. However, none of them had opted to fuse into Su Yu's world.

The book spirit was a book of Culture King that had attained the dao. The book would probably do better without fusing with Su Yu's world. There was no need to mention the tea plant. As for the big tree, its sentience was too juvenile for it to actually do anything. It had merely been following the footsteps of Fat Ball and the others.

These days, Su Yu had grown strong. His subordinates had grown strong as well. Meanwhile, the tea plant had barely reached the level of a tier-two Daofuse. The book spirit was still a tier-three Daofuse. The big tree was also a tier-three Daofuse.

Within Su Yu's camp, they could only be considered third-rate combatants. Their importance had declined considerably. With a bunch of heavenly kings and Venerables in the camp, tier-three Daofuses were indeed not as critical.

Hearing about how hard it was for chaos cultivators to break through out here, Su Yu thought of Yu Qing and the matron dragon. If the tea plant and Fat Ball could devour the matron dragon to strengthen themselves, they could probably grow much stronger.

And if they could devour even the chaos will in Yu Qing's hand, the tea plant might be able to grow into a Master of Law.

Su Yu had always been one to repay his favor. But at times, he lacked the ability to repay it. The growth of one's cultivation depended on many factors. It was not something one could easily help with. And now, an opportunity had presented itself for the tea plant.

Su Yu sank into thought. As for the chaos dragon and eight-winged dragon, the two had withdrawn during the previous battle. That signified the end of their temporary cooperation. In that case, Su Yu's previous pact with them would naturally be invalid.

Having reached a decision, Su Yu set the matter aside. He only needed to keep it in mind. It was pointless for him to talk about it. He looked at Martial Emperor and smiled, "Enough. Let's stop wasting our time talking about pointless matters."

Martial Emperor cursed inwardly. Was the matter pointless just because the guy was ignorant about it? How shameless.

Nevertheless, his confidence in Su Yu had grown considerably. After all, the subordinates of Su Yu had indeed grown significantly as of late. In fact, Martial Emperor was starting to grow expectant.

Yes, he was still expectant even though he was not necessarily going to agree to cooperate with Su Yu.

Martial Emperor set the matter aside, licked his lips, and asked with a slight excitement, "Do you have enough assembly tokens on you?"

"Of course."

Su Yu had ninety-seven tokens. Two were still missing, but it didn't matter. The remaining two were probably with the giants. He couldn't be bothered to collect them from the giants. Previously, the giants had readily handed him four when he asked for it. Thus, it was likely that they still had more hidden away.

It didn't matter. Ninety-seven would be enough. After all, the power of laws was already on the verge of scattering naturally. He no longer needed to complete all the tokens to complete the job.

"When are you scattering the power of laws?"

"Scattering?" Su Yu laughed, "Nope. I'm not scattering anything."

Martial Emperor's expression changed slightly. Was this guy changing his mind?

"I'll eat it up." Su Yu said, "The power of laws is very nutritious. In the past, I was wary of milking it so much that it scattered entirely. Now that I need it gone, I'll naturally devour everything."

Martial Emperor was relieved to hear that. He did not care about that. Whatever. Su Yu could scatter or devour it for all he cared. He only wanted it gone.

"Get ready. I'll head to the world of the living and free you. I'll also take this chance to find the actual location of your main body."

Suddenly, Heavenbridge said, "Your Majesty, someone seems to be looking for you outside the Celestial Chasm Realm."

"Who?"

"South Suppression Marquis."

South Suppression? Su Yu blinked. Why was that guy looking for him? Whatever. He was too busy to care.

After some thought, he said, "Tell him to see me outside the Luminous Domain Mansion."
