Chapter 2210: Clash Of Sovereigns, Full Victory (2)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

Hundred Battle King resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Just what was Su Yu trying to do? Was Su Yu picking a fight? Or was Su Yu trying to start a war with Martial Emperor free? Hundred Battle King sank into contemplation.

Martial Emperor had an unsightly expression. Finally, he roared, "You can't be reasoned with!"

What an idiotic Hundred Battle King!

Martial Emperor would really attack Su Yu if Hundred Battle King was willing to help. He couldn't forgive Su Yu for all the insults to him.

But Hundred Battle King was a total idiot!

How infuriating!

So be it. Martial Emperor decided to look at the bright side. Cooperating with such a fool would probably result in the two of them dying to Su Yu's schemes sometime in the future. What a fool! Martial Emperor cursed again. After shooting Hundred Battle King a cold gaze, he snorted and left.

Behind him, Su Yu's laughter rang out, "Don't run around too much, Martial Emperor. You might be number one, but the Myriad Realms aren't necessarily safe anymore. Remember to not enter the chaos. Be careful lest you meet Nephew Zhou Ji and die. Don't blame me for not warning you when that happens."

Martial Emperor ignored him.

He wanted to take a look around. The world was massive, and it had been over a hundred thousand years since he had taken a good look at the world. He was in no mood to talk to Su Yu. For now, he wanted to first finish his trip around the world.

Ignoring the departing Martial Emperor, Su Yu looked at Hundred Battle King from afar. Previously, they nearly met each other in the River of Time. However, that was not a proper meeting. This time, they were finally seeing each other face-to-face. It was said that a sovereign should never meet another sovereign, but circumstances might change.

Su Yu wanted to take a good look at Hundred Battle King.

Floating in the sky, Su Yu gazed at the distant Eastrift Valley and smiled, "Brother Hundred Battle, Martial Emperor has always been hot-headed. Don't mind him. He's mentally unstable after being sealed for over a hundred thousand years by Martial King."

"Martial Emperor is a senior. I will naturally not hold any grudge against a senior." Hundred Battle King smiled as well. "Fellow Daoist Su, do you wish to return to the Human Realm?"

Su Yu chuckled, "What if I say yes?"

"I can withdraw."

Someone frowned behind him.

Su Yu frowned as well. "Is humanity not worth your time?"

Hundred Battle King laughed and said, "You are different. I believe humanity will remain fine with you around."

Su Yu said, "In that case, I want the giants as well."

Hundred Battle King frowned slightly and said, "The giants won't be of any use to you."

Su Yu nodded, "I see."

He did not say more.

In short, Hundred Battle King was willing to give up on humanity, but he couldn't give up on the giants.

Behind Hundred Battle King, someone's expression changed. Moments later, Hundred Battle King realized the trap in that question as well. He said, "You know this. My wife belongs to the giant race. As for humanity, you're the tenth human lord. I believe nobody will stop you if you want to reclaim the human race. Nobody wants a conflict over this. We are fellow humans. There is no need for a conflict between us."

He was saying that he only offered this for humanity. For the sake of the big picture. It wasn't that he was scared of Su Yu. It also wasn't that he wanted to abandon humanity.

Su Yu nodded. "The Myriad Realms are in chaos. As fellow humans, we can always discuss things. Simply put, our current enemies are the sinned lineage and myriad races."

"Sinned lineage?"

"I stripped Control King's title. The heaven and earth bore witness and Human Emperor approved it. Control King has been abandoned by humanity." Su Yu said, "I made a public declaration in the Upper Realm. All human powerhouses should have sensed something. Did you sense nothing, Brother Hundred Battle?"

Was he not a human? Was he not a powerhouse? How was he clueless?

Hundred Battle King frowned slightly, but he soon smiled again. "I did sense it, but I wasn't aware that you had renamed them the sinned lineage."

Su Yu asked, "Is Control not a sinner? Are the descendants of Control not sinners? Yue Luo and Yue Xiao are right among your subordinates. Does Yue Luo not know whether they are sinners? Setting everything aside, just the act of ignoring humanity as the myriad races suppressed humanity for a hundred thousand years is in itself a sin."

Su Yu's voice boomed, "As humans, they did nothing as eight human lords died one after another. That is an unforgivable sin. They watched as the descendant of Martial King died in battle. Their sin is unpardonable. Is Martial King a hero of humanity? Is the first human lord a hero of humanity? With kinghood comes duty.

"They shared the fortune of humanity. How dare they watch as humanity weakens? After staying hidden for a hundred thousand years, they emerged with two Masters of Laws, seven or eight Venerables, more than ten heavenly kings, and over a hundred Daofuses. Don't tell me that they took only six thousand years to accumulate that strength."

Su Yu's voice reverberated everywhere, "If they could gather that much strength in only six thousand years, is the rest of humanity trash?"

Had Control King's lineage sinned? Hundred Battle King did pass his judgment on that. But Su Yu said yes. Just their act of doing nothing while humanity declined was enough for them to be considered sinners. Their act of doing nothing, as over a hundred ancient human marquises died, was also a sin.

Su Yu did not bother mentioning the suppression of Culture King's line. That was unrelated to those outside that line. He did not bother talking about a collusion with the death spirits as Su Yu himself was doing that.

However, that one reason he gave was enough to judge them as sinners.

Hundred Battle King gave Su Yu a deep gaze and nodded, "The sinned lineage. This is indeed an appropriate name for them."

He couldn't deny this. Even if...Su Yu was indirectly talking about him as well. When Su Yu mentioned six thousand years, he was essentially talking about Hundred Battle King. At such a young age, he had such a meticulous mind and a dark heart. How could Hundred Battle King deny such an allegation in public?

The successful removal of Control King's title was proof that Su Yu had the popular support. It had happened just because he wished it so.

Su Yu did not stop there. His voice boomed out again, "The sinned lineage and myriad races are the enemies of humanity. Do you agree, Brother Hundred Battle?"

"Yes." Hundred Battle King nodded.

Suddenly, someone interupted, "In that case, why did you help the Divine Consort Emeritus break through, Human Lord Su?"

Was that a sin as well? It was inappropriate for Hundred Battle King to mention that, but no matter. Someone else could mention it for him. Su Yu was claiming that the myriad races were enemies, yet he had helped them grow stronger.

Su Yu said, "To use enemies to subdue enemies. The Divine Consort Emeritus is an enemy. However..."

He turned around and said, "Divine Consort Emeritus, you promised a single request for my approval. I ask for one simple thing. Kill Yue Zhan, and our debt will be cleared."

After a short silence, Consort Emeritus' voice rang out from the Divine Realm, "Noted. Yue Zhan's life shall be the price for my breakthrough."

Su Yu looked down at the person who had questioned him and said, "She could have succeeded even without my approval. With this, she will start targeting Yue Zhan. Yu Qing will definitely try to stop her. Perhaps she will not only kill Yue Zhan, but she might even die alongside Yu Qing. Is this a worthy trade?"

The speaker asked, "How can Human Lord Su guarantee that she will fulfill the promise?"

Su Yu declared, "I will kill her in half a year if she does nothing. If she's still alive in half a year, I'll vacate my position as the human lord and hand it to you. What do you think?"

Su Yu took a step forth and raised his voice, "I only have one question for you. Would you dare to accept this position?"

The speaker stepped back with a pale face.

The speaker was not Longbrow. At present, Longbrow was too busy shivering in fear. The speaker was Evergreen, Hundred Battle King's head advisor.

Su Yu's voice boomed out, "I dare make such a promise. Dare you make a similar promise?"

It was as though his voice had turned into the tune of the very dao. "You collected Yue Luo and Yue Xiao, two sinners from the sinned lineage under you, without anything to show for it. Dare you promise to kill Yu Qing within three months and step down if you fail?

"Yue Luo and Yue Xiao are the traitors of humanity. Can their sins be wiped off just by a simple submission?"

Su Yu roared, "Can their sins be forgiven with a simple apology or a willingness to return? In that case, are we supposed to forgive Control and the Masters of Laws of the myriad races when they return as well?

"If they can all be forgiven, what of the past hundred thousand years of war? What have humanity been fighting for? Regardless of whether it's the divines or the myriad races, I'm only working with them today to pit them against our enemies.

"They have not been forgiven. I won't wipe the slate clean just because they're willing to serve me. I accepted the iron devourer, fate, spatial beast, and hou races because they have always been the allies of humanity. There is no blood debt between them and us. They have not sinned.

"These races have stood with humanity even after our massive decline. They fought for us. They bled for us. I can accept them. Will the myriad races be willing to join me?

"I can lie and say that I'm willing to accept them. The Divine Consort Emeritus might agree to join me. But can I forget our blood feud just to gain a single Master of Law? In the tenth epoch, humanity fought for five hundred years. Over ten million, no, over a hundred million soldiers died fighting our enemies. Can I accept those butchers for the sake of one Master of Law?"

Silence descended.

"So what if I become the public enemy of the myriad races?" Su Yu's voice continued rising in volume, "How can I forget a blood feud because a powerful enemy wishes to join me?"

Was he lying?

No.

He had never accepted someone with a blood feud against humanity.

The races he had accepted were races with no blood feud against humanity. They were either neutral races or friendly races. They had abstained from the battles early this epoch, but why was that? Who was the reason for such a choice? Su Yu couldn't even be bothered to mention it.

He did not have a single enemy of humanity on his side. The death spirits might be the exception, but he did not bother talking about them. Those fellows had been dead for so many years. Who knew what their actual history was?

As Su Yu spoke, the world sank into silence.

After a long while, Hundred Battle King's soft voice rang out, "You're right, Fellow Daoist. Those with the blood of humanity in their hands can't be accepted. In truth, Yue Luo and Yue Xiao have been fighting for humanity all along. They were implanted as spies among the sinned lineage to gather information and prevent them from joining the attack against humanity."

With that said, Su Yu would be clearly picking a fight if he continued pushing on.

Su Yu really wanted to push, but he said something else instead. "It is clear that you worry about my involvement with the myriad races, while I worry about your involvement with the sinned lineage. I propose that you focus on the myriad races while I focus on the sinned lineage."

Su Yu smiled and said, "The ninth and tenth human lords joining hands to pacify the Myriad Realms. This will create quite a captivating story that can catch the imagination of many.

"What about a little friendly competition, Brother Hundred Battle? Let's see who will first prevail against our assigned target. The chaos of the Myriad Realms began because of humanity. Let humanity be the one to end it as well. The myriad races have one Master of Law and multiple Venerables. The sinned lineage has two Masters of Laws. Yue Zhan and Scrape are quite powerful as well. Our assigned targets are similar in strength. This is a fair arrangement. What say you, Brother Hundred Battle?"
