Su Yu continued walking, flanked by Great Qin King and Great Zhou King. With a smile, Su Yu slowed down half a step, allowing Great Qin King to take the lead. When Great Qin King turned to look at him, he said, "Please show me around, Your Majesty. It has been a year since I last returned. I am no longer familiar with this place." Great Qin King smiled. This time, his smile wasn't as stiff as usual. "It has only been a year. Not much has changed." Great Qin King resumed his walk, moving at a rapid speed even when it looked like he was merely taking a stroll. Great Zhou King followed, walking at the same speed in the same casual manner. He was right there, but his presence was almost nonexistent. Even Su Yu, who was walking beside him, felt like he wasn’t there. As far as Su Yu was concerned, someone was the most terrifying. He did not fear someone like Great Qin King. For him, Great Zhou King was far more dangerous. No matter how strong Great Qin King was, he wouldn't do more than stab his enemy to death openly. Meanwhile, Great Zhou King could converse with someone with an amicable smile just moments before sliding a sword through one's heart. Thus, Su Yu felt rather uncomfortable around Great Zhou King. At the moment, Great Qin King was feeling quite uncomfortable as well. Both Great Zhou King and Su Yu were walking elegantly with their fluttering robes behind him, yet it felt as though none of them were behind him. He knew for sure that they were behind him. Neither was a weakling. There was no need to mention Great Zhou King's strength. Su Yu was rather impressive as well. He was lacking in the power of laws, but his brute strength was comparable to that of a sixth or seventh-degree Eternal. Both such individuals were casually following behind him like ghosts with their nonexistent presences. When Great Qin King walked, each step of his would echo loudly. Meanwhile, it felt as though Su Yu and Great Zhou King were floating instead of walking. Suddenly, Great Qin King stopped. The two behind him stopped as well. Great Qin King turned to face Su Yu and flashed another smile. This time, the smile was rather stiff. He said, "As a leader, you need to be firm and unyielding. Each step of yours must be strong, and your presence must be clearly felt by your people. That is the mark of a reliable leader. Tricks and schemes can win you battles, but strength and endurance are required to win a long battle." Su Yu smiled and said, "I understand, Your Majesty." Satisfied, Great Qin King continued walking. Alas, the two behind him continued floating like ghosts. The surrounding Invincibles watched silently. None bothered to say anything. Everyone understood the hidden meaning behind Great Qin King's words. The same applied to Su Yu. But he clearly didn't care. He continued acting as he wished. Great Qin King sighed inwardly. As he walked, he asked, "Have you encountered any troubles recently? Do you need help? If you hadn't killed Blood Fire and many other Invincibles in the mansion, I would have died in there." Some of the Invincibles nearby were already aware of this, but some were hearing this for the first time. Further away, the Sunmoons following the Invincibles were greatly shaken upon hearing those words. What was the meaning of Great Qin King's words? Even someone as strong as Great Qin King had only survived due to Su Yu? Su Yu chuckled and said, "No, but thank you for the offer. As for the mansion, I had merely killed those I disliked before resolving the resulting complications. I didn't do it for you." Great Qin King furrowed his brows and said, "No, that's not accurate. Without you, the myriad races would spare no effort to kill me in the mansion. After losing two of my bodies, you gave me your healing treasures and the divine weapon. That was how I was able to maintain my combat strength after such heavy injuries." Countless people stopped in their tracks. A look of overwhelming shock covered their faces. This time, even the Invincibles were reacting the same. Only a select few people were aware of this matter. And now, Great Qin King had revealed everything himself. Someone exclaimed in shock, "Seal this place! Wipe the memories of those below the Eternal Realm!" Great Qin King nonchalantly said, "Why panic? Don't bother. What's the point? I still have the same combat strength. Nothing will change. I have two fewer lives now, but someone capable of killing you once can naturally kill you thrice. It makes no difference." "No secret can be kept forever." Great Qin King said, "I am saying this to prepare all of you for what may come in the future. This will allow you to remain calm when the worst happens in the future." The many Invincibles were greatly alarmed. How was this possible? Great Zhou King's eyes flickered, but he remained silent. He was one of the few aware of this matter. However, it still came as a surprise to him that Great Qin King was revealing it so openly. Great Qin King said indifferently, "What is there to fear? Like I said, I received Su Yu's healing treasures and the Source Return Blade in he mansion. My combat strength is around the same. Also, dying thrice is the same as dying once. What's with that stupid expression?" He snorted and continued, "Also, I'm not the only ninth-degree Eternal here. Old Zhou, Old Xia, and Old Zhu are almost there. My absence won't change much." "That's not the case, Old Qin." Great Tang King said, "None of us will accept the leadership of others." "Old Qin, we might still be willing to listen somewhat when you speak. As for the others...I can't guarantee the same." Great Qin King frowned and shouted, "Shut it!" Instantly, everyone stopped speaking. Great Qin King stared at them coldly and said, "If you were really so obedient, would there be so many issues among humanity? I only hope that you won't kill each other after my death. I can't do much. The only thing I managed to do all these years is prevent an internal war. Nothing else. If my leadership was as welcomed as you claimed, would humanity be in so much chaos all these years?" The expressions of the Invincibles changed. Great Qin King continued, "The human race might seem strong, but we are very fragile. You know this well. I understand that some of you are planning to hide in the minor realms or activate the suppressive force. Some might even be planning to surrender to the major races. I can only wish you luck in that. Do you think you would live a good life when humanity collapses?" Great Xia King said, "You must be overthinking, Great Qin King. Some might be planning to hide in minor realms or activate the suppressive force, but I doubt anyone is planning to surrender to the major races." "Are you sure about that?" Great Qin King sneered and said, "The major race experts are trying to persuade even me to surrender. They promised protection for me and my loved ones. They even offered to switch my body out and the position as a respected king of their race. Are you saying the same offer isn't being given to the rest of you? They even promised me a body with the bloodline of the Immortal, Devil, or Divine Pseudo Emperors." His voice turned stern as he said, "That won't happen as long as I'm alive. You are free to think for yourself after I'm dead. But while I'm still around, watch yourself. I don't care about the internal strife, but defection...will be punished with death. Let's see if anyone from the major races can protect you from my blade." "Great Qin King!" Great Zhou King said, "The juniors are here as well. Watch what you say." Great Qin King coldly said, "Yes. The juniors are here. That's why I'm saying all this. We have fought together for so many years. I don't want to meet any of you on the battlefield as enemies. Wouldn't that reduce us to clowns in front of our juniors?" Su Yu listened silently. He was observing the reactions of the human Invincibles, trying to figure out their true thoughts. At present, humanity was split into several main factions. The pro-war faction led by Great Xia King. The pro-peace faction led by Great Zhou King. He had always been pro-peace. He was more focused on the reactivation of the suppressive force. Thus, he seldom participated in external affairs. The pro-retreat faction was the third main faction. They intended to withdraw from the Human Realm and live out their lives in the various minor realms. The pro-surrender faction was the fourth main faction. Yes. There was such a faction. As Great Qin King said, the major races had promised them powerful bloodlines and respectable positions upon their defection. Naturally, there was no official leader for this faction. Nobody would openly claim to be a part of this faction. After all, this would incur the wrath of Great Qin King. The former three factions were still valid options for humanity. But the fourth faction was viewed as a faction of traitors. This was a faction Great Qin King himself would act against. Was the pro-surrender faction popular? How many Invincibles were in this faction? It was still unknown, but everyone knew that such a faction existed. They had merely been inactive due to their fear of a certain individual. They knew that Great Qin King was telling the truth. Such a betrayal would be punished with death. He would hold nothing back to kill them. Assassinations? Direct battles? He would do everything to take their lives. That was how humanity had maintained its current fragile unity. Seeing that nobody was saying anything, Great Qin King said, "I know that some of you are aware of some secrets from the ancient past. You know about the previous ninth epochs. Some envoys must have informed you of the previous nine defeats, telling you how terrible humanity is. But would humanity really fall in the tenth epoch after resisting destruction nine times?" "We are humans! We were the ancient rulers of the Myriad Realms!" Great Qin King said, "After the collapse of the ancient past, humanity had fought nine times, rising again and again without fear even after numerous defeats. Are we going to bend our spines at the ninth epoch?" Great Zhou King sighed, "Our spines are still straight, but the nine defeats have exhausted all our elders. During the first nine epochs, humanity was guided by the surviving ancient experts. But not a single surviving ancient expert is around this time. Old Qin, we don't want this, but many of us can't see any hope." Great Qin King solemnly said, "Hope?" He pointed at Su Yu and said, "Are the young not our hope? Since we could produce someone capable of killing Wisdom King like Su Yu, we could produce ten more. A hundred more. And drown the Myriad Realms in blood!" Numerous gazes landed on Su Yu, but he remained indifferent. Or to be precise, he was resisting the urge to laugh. Why were they looking at him? He hadn't said anything. Today, he was here as a prop. Nothing else. Bored, Su Yu dragged the little furball out and started squeezing the furball absentmindedly. Great Qin King was not done with his speech, but noticing Su Yu's reaction, he stopped helplessly. Su Yu...was truly unreliable. What was he thinking? When the other Invincibles saw the furry ball in his hand, they all shivered. That furry ball had a pair of incomparably powerful parents. They considered Pseudo Emperors food. That was a terrifying pair of parents. Su Yu ignored everyone and pulled a glowing flower out. With a smile, he looked at the furball and said, "You seem to have lost some weight recently. Come, eat more..." "Su Yu!" Great Qin King shouted, "What are you doing? Why are you feeding him the nine-leaf skylotus?" For more chapters visıt 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽 Those words shocked countless people. Everyone focused on Su Yu and the flower in his hand. He frowned slightly, but he soon smiled again and said, "Your Majesty, that was rude. The furball is my brother. What's the big deal with feeding him a petal from the nine-leaf skylotus?"
