Su Yu laughed and said, "Not necessarily. I believe Old Zhou knows it as well." If that was the case, Old Zhou must have been a terrifyingly strong expert. Since the Martial King was strong enough to kill Old Zhou, did Martial King know the grand cycle cultivation method as well? If that was the case, both Culture King and Human Emperor probably knew it as well. Human Emperor, Culture King, Martial King, Old Zhou, Time Sage... Su Yu listed out the super experts he was aware of. All of them seemed to be humans. How did humanity suffer defeat in the ancient past if they were so powerful? How odd. Su Yu decided to stop thinking about the matter. He put his saintly light and Mark of Civilization away. Even so, he still looked incredibly refined and pretty. Even when he was disguised as a death spirit, he looked like an extremely handsome death spirit. He Tu was left quite speechless by how good-looking Su Yu was. He asked, "Are you returning?" "Yes." Su Yu nodded. The mansion would reopen soon. He had to go back. He said, "Lords, thank you for your help this time. I'm wondering if I should return to Grand Dream City or Grandstar City." Both were valid paths for him. And he had also formed a relationship with the ruling death sovereigns there. In the future, he would be able to freely enter or leave the Death Realm through the two cities. In short, the territory under both cities was as good as his. "Grandstar City." He Tu suggested, "The people outside seem to have learned that I was inside the mansion. They might be paying close attention to Grand Dream City." Su Yu blanked out slightly. Right. That was the case. And he was the reason for that. Those outside were already aware that He Tu was in the mansion. They could very well be paying close attention to Grand Dream City. He Tu looked at Su Yu suspiciously and asked, "Su Yu, were you the one who had spread the news about my presence in the mansion?" He had a very strong feeling that those outside were already aware of his presence in the mansion. He could sense numerous people cursing at him. Su Yu coughed and said, "No way. I'm not that kind of person. You misunderstand me, Lord." He Tu sneered. This was as good as a confirmation that Su Yu was the culprit. Sure enough, the humans were treacherous. This guy had actually leaked the news of his arrival in the mansion. How impressive. He said, "Did you know about my arrival from the very beginning?" "Not really. I only learned of it when you reached the second level." Su Yu said, "I happened to hear your voice then. Due to my great respect toward great individuals like you, I started shaking with joy right after learning of your arrival." He Tu felt like giving Su Yu a punch. No wonder. No wonder he hadn't been able to find many victims each time he entered a new level. Su Yu must have killed the rest of them. "Did you make me your scapegoat?" "Not at all." Su Yu denied, "Lord, let's not talk about this for now. We need to lock this place down and prevent any other death spirits from reaching here. This is the best spot to launch our invasion against the world of the living in the future. We can't allow the other death spirits to ruin our plan." He continued, "Lord, I am planning to kill a few Invincibles to warn the myriad races after leaving. Are you interested in helping?" He Tu asked, "Are you thinking of opening a new tunnel to let me out? Are you not worried that I will start killing wantonly and spread death qi everywhere after leaving? That will force the old turtle to kill you." Trusting He Tu to not cause trouble? Nope. Not even He Tu himself could control himself after leaving the Death Realm. After all, all death spirits were driven by their instincts to kill and destroy. That would be troublesome. He shouldn't try that unless he could control He Tu. Su Yu said, "We'll worry about this next time. I do hope that you'll be willing to help when it matters. Lord Xing Yue, Principal Xia Chen, I hope I can receive your assistance as well. Together, we can face anyone as long as the Pseudo Emperors stay out of the fight." "If you don't fear the heavenly laws, I naturally won't mind leaving to meet some of my old acquaintances." He Tu had a toying expression as he gave that offer. He naturally enjoyed leaving the Death Realm. He would be more than happy to leave, but Su Yu needed to be brave enough to allow him passage. Su Yu laughed the matter off. He started walking away. While walking, he asked, "Lord He Tu, are you the only Invincible in your territory?" "Of course not." He Tu said, "I have two death sovereigns under my command. My Grand Dream Kingdom is the strongest kingdom in the region. Second to that was the kingdom of the tiger brothers, but they are dead now. Moving forward, my kingdom will be unrivalled." For original chapters go to novel⚑fire.net Su Yu glanced at Xing Yue questioningly. How about her kingdom? Xing Yue merely maintained her cold expression. She did not have any death sovereigns under her command. Why was he looking at her? Understanding dawned on Su Yu. True. As a shut-in death sovereign, how was she supposed to recruit more death sovereigns to her banner? Then again, death spirits were quite hard to subdue. One could subdue a death spirit today, but the death spirit might forget the matter after one day. A new battle of submission would unfold. Thus, it was also quite impressive for He Tu to have two such subordinates. "In that case, please lead the way, Lord Xing Yue. It's good that there are no other death sovereigns in your kingdom. We can go through your place undetected. This will be the perfect opportunity for me to stab those people on their backs. Hehehehe." Su Yu was also quite curious about the survivors as well. Who could leave the mansion alive? He wasn't only curious about the humans. How many people were left on the eighth level? How about the seventh level? Were there no survivors on the bottom six floors? There were still many uncertainties. He Tu might have missed some secret locations. And some survivors might emerge from those places. As for Zhan Wushuang and the others, Su Yu had not killed them. But he hadn't brought them with him either. It would be too dangerous to enter the Death Realm with a bunch of living beings. The little furball did not count since he was more like a character than a living being. Thus, he had handed Zhan Wushuang and the others to Great Qin King. He was unsure if this would be helpful for the humans after leaving the mansion. Perhaps this would be enough to deter the divines somewhat. Before long, they left through the same black hole. Then, He Tu sealed the black hole with his death qi. When he was done, he said, "Let's go. I'll be able to sense any attempt to enter this place with my seal here." Xing Yue led the way with her usual cold and detached expression. They were finally going to her kingdom. This time, they were able to move much faster as they did not encounter any death sovereigns on their way. In less than a day, they reached a large forested area. There, Su Yu blanked out. What was this? Plants were very rare in the Death Realm. Why was there a forest here? Was it even possible for trees to grow in the Death Realm? At the center of the dark forest was a massive ancient castle. It floated in the sky. All around the dark forest, squads of death spirits were patrolling under the lead of Pseudo Invincible death spirits. He Tu wasn't surprised. He said, "Xing Yue, you sure are boring. All other death sovereigns are busy cultivating or fighting. Meanwhile, you have been spending all your time growing plants and renovating your ancient castle. No wonder you have remained weak for so long." Xing Yue maintained a cold expression. She said nothing. He was insulting her! When even Su Yu started clicking his tongue, Xing Yue erupted in anger, "Su Yu, what are you doing?" Su Yu laughed awkwardly and said, "No, nothing. I wanted to say that your territory is nice. It's pretty. It's completely different from the other boring territories I saw before this. Wow. Look at all these trees and flowers. Lord, did you enjoy gardening back when you were alive?" Xing Yue ignored him. Just then, a Pseudo Invincible death spirit flew over and greeted loudly, "Greetings, Sovereign!" The death spirit rose and looked at Su Yu and the others doubtfully. Su Yu found the death spirit familiar. After staring at the death spirit for a bit, he laughed and said, "Brother! Did you enter Grandstar City to attack Su Yu once? During the incident involving the dark dragon." The death spirit blanked out slightly before answering, "Lord...Yes...I think..." Su Yu grabbed the death spirit's head and smiled, "Well, I'll be generous and forgive you. We're both on the same side. Moving forward, Lord Xing Yue is the ultimate ruler of this kingdom. Meanwhile, I am your chief commander. Do you understand me?" The Pseudo Invincible death spirit stared at Su Yu blankly. So powerful! How did his lord return with so many death sovereigns after taking a short trip away from the kingdom? All of them felt so strong. Su Yu said, "Why are you blanking out? I'm Su Yu. I'm the chief commander from now on. Report everything to me. Don't bother our esteemed lord for no reason. I'll personally report anything important to our lord." At this point, eight Pseudo Invincible death spirits had arrived from all over the territory. They all looked at Xing Yue for an answer. Xing Yue couldn't be bothered to say anything. She flew straight to her ancient castle with her usual indifference. Behind, Su Yu reached out and grabbed all the Pseudo Invincibles like they were little chicks and grinned, "Do you hear me? Are you trying to waste our lord's valuable energy? Send someone to the death tunnel and check the situation outside. I'll come and train you when I have the time. Stop blanking out. Go and do your job." Seeing that Xing Yue was not reacting, the Pseudo Invincibles dropped to their knees and greeted, "Greetings, Chief Commander!" Su Yu smiled happily. It wouldn't be a bad idea for him to get himself a position here. With a casual swing of his hand, he tossed one of the Pseudo Invincibles out. He said, "You. From now on, your name is Xing One. Go check the tunnel. I'll have a chat with our lord in her castle." Xing One answered by instinct. Even after Su Yu's left, he was still blanking out. He stared at the other death spirits and said, "The chief commander...Su Yu...is he dead?' Was he dead? Did their lord finish the conversion? He was so strong! No wonder. No wonder their lord had been focusing on the tunnel as of late. She had been refusing to leave. So she was doing it for Su Yu. The speed at which Su Yu was growing...seemed a tad bit too scary. They had been to Grandstar City as well. Thus, they all knew that not so long ago, Su Yu was still too weak to kill even a Sunmoon. In the blink of an eye, he had grown enough to easily handle eight Pseudo Invincibles. First, they were shocked. When the shock faded, they grew excited. "Apart from the chief commander, I also saw Lord He Tu from Grand Dream City. There is also another lord who is incomparably strong. What are they doing here? Are we attacking Grandstar City?" The Pseudo Invincible picked by Su Yu said, "Gather up and come with me. We need to investigate the tunnel." In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Sunmoon death spirits gathered in front of him. Together, they moved toward the tunnel. They were all feeling incomparably excited. They could finally invade the world of the living. Their great lord had finally grown a brain. Instead of attacking alone, she had brought so many helpers. They had also gained a powerful chief commander. With that in mind, all the death spirits capable of thought grew incomparably excited. Liu Hong was ready to depart. The mansion would reopen tomorrow. Su Yu would be back. "Kid, be thankful I'm responsible enough to keep at this until today. But I need to leave now if I don't want to be stuck here. So long, Kid." Liu Hong laughed. Next, he stepped into the inner hall and said respectfully, "Lord, many experts are surrounding the city outside. Would you go outside and deter them from doing anything stupid? You don't need to fight. You only need to travel openly toward the Heavendoom City. Everyone will suspect that you're discussing an attack against them with Lord Heavendoom. Su Yu is coming back tomorrow. I'm worried that something bad will happen if we don't do anything to deter all those people outside from trying anything rash." Grandstar thought about it and said, "I'll take a look outside. Don't run around. Don't mess with anything. Don't even enter the death tunnel. Something felt wrong just now. The death qi down there had grown much thicker not long ago. Some powerful death spirits must be passing through the area. Don't do anything stupid." Grandstar had kindly warned Liu Hong. He had sensed the arrival of more than one death sovereign down there. Xing Yue had gone missing for a while. Did she leave to recruit help or something? She had never done this before. Grandstar was surprised, but he wasn't bothered. No death spirit could leave the tunnel. Now that he had a good helper to share the burden, suppressing the tunnel felt much easier. He could handle even multiple death sovereigns without much trouble. Furthermore, only a death sovereign could enter the tunnel at a time. Grandstar City was different from Grand Dream City. Then, Grandstar vanished with a flicker before reappearing outside. He flew toward Heavendoom City without hiding himself, catching the attention of countless people. Grandstar had left the city yet again. Was Su Yu in the mansion or not? What was going on here? If he was inside, how was Grandstar leaving the city so easily? The moment Grandstar left, Liu Hong grinned. Increase in death qi density? Did Grandstar think that this would be enough to scare him? Xing Yue was gone. The other death spirits would be mostly dumb. None of them would bother with guarding the tunnel. Liu Hong knew all that. Why was an ancient expert like Grandstar using such a weak lie against him? Liu Hong inhaled deeply. He had spent quite a lot of time pretending to be obedient here. Even Senior Wang and Old Man Bai were no longer so wary of him. Thus, he could able to enter the inner hall with much more freedom than before. This was what he had been waiting for. He gnashed his teeth and started approaching the tunnel. At the entrance, he smiled, "Su Yu, thank you for this. I worked hard for you and you opened a clear and safe path for me. With this, we're even." At the same moment, Grandstar looked back. He wasn't worried. Rather, he merely frowned with annoyance, "Fool. There are really multiple death sovereigns down there. I even sensed the aura of a certain kid. Why did the fool jump into the tunnel?" Did the fool think that the warning was a lie? As an ancient general, would he deign to lie to a weak Cloudbreach? Was Liu Hong tired of living? Whatever. He had kindly given Liu Hong a warning due to Liu Hong's great performance recently. However, Liu Hong had gone seeking death. Even if he could avoid the death spirits, there was also a certain individual known as Su Yu down there. Then again, why did Su Yu return through the Death Realm? Even Grandstar was quite shocked by that. There was a connection between him and Su Yu. Thus, he could sense Su Yu's arrival near his vicinity. He decided to forget about Liu Hong. What a dumbass.
