Su Yu smiled and said, "Thus, we need to proceed with the original plan. Please call a meeting between all the death sovereigns here. Most death sovereigns will be too scared to enter Lord He Tu's territory, so the meeting must happen here. I believe the death sovereigns in this region won't be as scared of Lord Xing Yue. This is a task only Lord Xing Yue can help with." That was mainly because she was too much of a shut-in. Thus, most death sovereigns were unafraid of her. Xing Yue nodded and said, "Yes, I can invite them here. But what then?" Su Yu wondered if she had been paying attention earlier. Did he not make it clear? She only needed to waste the time of the death sovereigns talking nonsense. Time was not a valuable resource for the dead. They could easily spend a month or two or even years talking to each other and they wouldn't mind it. How hard could this be? Su Yu said, "If you can't think of anything, you can make up some stories. For example, you can talk about the discovery of death blood at a random location. Or you can talk about life death fruit. Just tell them you need their help to harvest these treasures. If you need to, you can even tell them about the rumors of a safe tunnel to the world of the living. Make them ask around to verify the fact. You can even get Tuofa and the others to serve as witnesses. After all, Tuofa and the others can't return to the mansion without the special entrances anymore. If you need to, you can even take them to the entrances and tell them to wait ten years there. Or you can even tell them they need to gather 360 death sovereigns to activate the entrances." Simply put, there were simply too many ways to fool the death sovereigns. It wasn't like death spirits were hard to deceive. Xing Yue maintained her cold and detached expression, but she was memorizing everything. So there were so many ways to deceive these death sovereigns? She decided to keep them all in mind. He Tu was doing the same. He had to acknowledge that upon death, he was indeed not as good as the living at scheming anymore. Gathering 360 sovereigns to enter the mansion and invade the world of the living was a truly good idea. That would be a good slogan to recruit more help. Perhaps he could borrow from this idea. This wasn't even a lie. The entrances could indeed transfer 360 individuals into the mansion. He Tu said, "Sure. Since you have everything planned, I'll do you this favor. This is probably not all. Do you intend to open a new tunnel and get our help during a crucial moment?" Su Yu nodded, "Exactly. We need to do the same thing and act like we don't know each other. Take the death sovereigns out and start killing randomly. I only need your help to keep the other death sovereigns under control when it is time for you to go back." Xing Yue sneered, "The living are indeed shameless." They had used a similar trick previously. Now, they were doing the same again. Su Yu laughed, "Lord, I'm doing all this to better serve you. With me dead, you won't be able to find a subordinate as fine as me anymore." Xing Yue sneered. She would not fall for that lie. Subordinate? What manner of a subordinate was this? He Tu did not mind the shamelessness. He said, "Sure. I only have two requests. Firstly, I want to be resurrected when that is possible. Secondly, try to lure the old turtle away every now and then. Give me a chance to take a stroll outside." With the old turtle around, leaving was impossible. He couldn't stand it anymore. To make things worse, Grand Dream City was devoid of people. Nobody would die in the city, and He Tu would have no chance to go up every now and then. This was completely unlike the other death sovereigns. He couldn't take the boredom. "You can also kill a few Pseudo Invincibles in Grand Dream City. That will allow me to stay outside for three days and get some fresh air." "That won't be an issue." Su Yu promised, "If you wish to leave, I can rear a bunch of Pseudo Invincibles and kill one every three days. We can meet up anytime we want." Suddenly, Xing Yue demanded coldly, "I want that as well!" Wow. That was yet another good idea. Su Yu refused, "No, that is not advisable. Lord He Tu is an outsider. He will be punished by the heavenly laws each time he fails a mission outside, but it won't be an issue for him. And I don't really care about him that much. But you might fail to survive the punishment and die. As your loyal subordinate, I can't risk losing you, Lord." Was that the case? Xing Yue sank into thought. She couldn't help but agree that Su Yu was right. With a smile, He Tu sent Su Yu a voice transmission, "You sure enjoy fooling everyone, including the dead. I can see myself in you." "No, not at all. You are much better at this than I, Lord." After giving each other a knowing smile, Su Yu stood up and said, "That is all. I'll be leaving now. Lord He Tu, please help more with the plan as Lord Xing Yue might be too busy to help with it." In truth, he was simply worried that she would mess it up due to her lack of intelligence. Since Su Yu did not make that clear, Xing Yue did not react. Meanwhile, He Tu instantly understood Su Yu's intent. Sure enough, the smart ones could only work well with the smart ones. As for Xing Yue, she knew nothing apart from snorting. Su Yu started preparing to leave. The mansion would reopen tomorrow. He couldn't wait any longer. After all, he needed some time to inherit the mayorship of the thirty-two cities as well. As for the existing mayors, he would put them all under his control. The guardians could help with that. That way, news of his appearance in the city would not leak. While Su Yu was in a discussion with He Tu and Xing Yue, Liu Hong had escaped the city. He was feeling boundlessly excited. Finally! He was finally down here! It was surprisingly peaceful here. There were no death sovereigns or death spirits in sight. This was much better than expected. Xing Yue's absence had helped greatly with this as well. He started flying forward...until suddenly, he turned around and flew back where he came from. What the hell was this? When he was near the exit, he suddenly saw countless death spirits. What joke was this? Since when did non Invincible death spirits learn to work? Why were they guarding the tunnel without order? The Pseudo Invincible death spirit roared in excitement, "Give chase! A living being is invading! The chief commander has newly arrived. Let us capture a living being and showcase our abilities to him!" Find the newest release on NoveI~Fire.net He knew that he was speaking to mindless death spirits, but he did not care. This was the first mission he had received from the chief commander. And an opportunity to complete it nicely had arrived. Xing One was very happy. He was someone who had attacked the chief commander before. This was a good opportunity for him to repair his relationship with the chief commander. And thus, one Pseudo Invincible and hundreds of death spirits gave chase in the tunnel. This tunnel couldn't support the movement of more than one death sovereign, but there was no limit for those below the Invincible Realm. Liu Hong had a pale expression. Why was this happening? Why were they taking the initiative to chase him? Since when did death spirits become so smart? This was very bad. He flew upward with all his strength, but the pressure kept growing the higher he flew. Thus, the distance between him and his pursuers started dropping. Left with no choice, Liu Hong gnashed his teeth and took a token out before roaring, "Audacious! I am the envoy of Lord Culture King. Alive or dead, all shall give way in the presence of his envoy!" The token flickered slightly. Instantly, all the death spirits blanked out. The mindless ones followed their instincts and dropped to their knees. As for the Pseudo Invincible, he struggled, but that didn't last long. In mere moments, a deferential look covered his face as he lowered his head. Unlike the mindless death spirits, he did not drop to his knees. However, his previous aggression had vanished completely. Liu Hong forced himself to stay calm. Inwardly, he was overjoyed. It worked! He had nearly died here! This was too dangerous. But sure enough, the token of Culture King was effective in the Death Realm, especially for the territory under the control of the ancient past. Liu Hong exhaled in relief. Fortunately, there was no death sovereign here. Death sovereigns were smarter, and some might even be former victims of Culture King. Thus, the token might not work as well for them. Not even Pseudo Invincible death spirits were smart enough to disobey the token. Liu Hong carefully moved through the death spirits. By the time he walked past all of them, he noted that all of them were still remaining still. Once again, he was overjoyed. Wow. That was so scary. When Liu Hong was near the exit, several death spirits appeared in the distance. He did the same and raised the token. "Audacious! I am the envoy of Culture King! Dead or alive, all shall make way for me!" However, the four figures did not stop moving. One of them was Su Yu. Still in his death spirit disguise, he changed the color of his cloak to white, resulting in a rather peculiar and sinister combination of black and white. Meanwhile, Liu Hong's expression changed drastically. What powerful death qi! And there were four of them? Were they all...death sovereigns? He had conversed with Xing Yue before, but he had never met her. But why were there four death sovereigns here? This was not supposed to happen! Finally, three of the four figures stopped near the entrance. They did not step into the tunnel. Liu Hong was relieved to see that. Was the token effective against them as well? No. That was mainly because the tunnel couldn't support the movement of multiple Invincibles. Slowly, Su Yu stopped as well. He looked at Liu Hong with shock. Culture King's token. Culture King's envoy? What joke was this? Liu Hong? An envoy of Culture King? Culture King was a super expert from the ancient past. Liu Hong was merely a Cloudbreach. How was this possible? Was the token fake? Or did he find it somewhere? He could see that the token was effective against the death spirits. In fact, it also had a slight effect on him. The moment he saw it, a voice rang out in his mind. "Culture King's token. Myriad races bow." A voice was telling him to make way for the bearer of the token. It was telling him that a disaster would befall him if he did not make way for the envoy. Su Yu was greatly surprised. How did Liu Hong get something ? As for Liu Hong, he was relieved to see that even the death spirit with a white cloak had stopped moving. Was that a Pseudo Invincible? Holy shit! What about the other three? They all felt so strong! As a Cloudbreach, it wasn't easy for Liu Hong to differentiate between Pseudo Invincibles and Invincibles. For him, they were all existences far beyond him. He carefully stepped forth, preparing to move past these death spirits like the ones before as well. Just as he walked past the first death spirit, a palm tapped his shoulder lightly. After screeching in fear, Liu Hong hurriedly lifted the token and said, "The Culture King's token is here! Dead or alive, all shall make way! How dare you disobey the Culture King?" He was practically screeching instead of speaking. However, Su Yu merely dug his ear with one hand and reached out for the token with his other hand. The moment he grabbed the token, it shone, seemingly intending to punish the impudent rebel. It released a ray of light to punish Su Yu, but the ray of light was directly swallowed by Su Yu. Inside his sea of willpower, the Culture Tomb shook slightly, scattering the ray of light. As for Liu Hong, he was completely stunned. He was...dead! He would die here! He would die before even starting his plan for real! Was the token failing him here? The moment the token was taken away from Liu Hong, Xing One and the others recovered. They all looked at Su Yu and dropped to their knees again, "Greetings, Chief Commander!" After putting the token away, Su Yu looked at Liu Hong and said, "Teacher Liu, you sure are brave." Liu Hong was suffering from extreme fear. When he heard those words, his fear intensified. "This...is impossible!" That shouldn't be possible. Su Yu was in the Luminous Domain Mansion. How could he be in the Death Realm? Also, how could he be the chief commander of these death spirits? Next, he heard an even scarier voice.
