Chapter 1142: Myriad Assembly In Human Realm (1)

After hearing about the magnificent feat of his big brother, Su Yu could only clap approvingly.

He felt so proud. Thirty-six stone statues had punched the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion for him. This felt great. He greatly regretted not being there to witness such a magnificent sight. If he could be there to watch the show live, he would probably feel even better.

Oh well. There was always a next time for everything, right?

Finally, Su Yu understood why everyone was suspecting him. He laughed heartily and said, "Like I said, I'm tight with my Big Brother Stone Statue. He has my back when I'm in trouble. It's no big deal."

He was not lying. Those were the stone statue's own words. It was no big deal. The three couldn't help but grimace in envy.

Xia Huyou mumbled sourly, "Why don't you invite your big brothers on a trip to the Human Realm? I'll play host."

"Heh."

Su Yu gave Xia Huyou a look of contempt.@@@@

Such a minor scheme would not work on him.

He naturally wouldn't admit that the stone statues couldn't actually enter the Human Realm. Instead, he said, "Stop dreaming. My big brother is only tight with me. As for the rest of you...he will probably turn you into mincemeat with one punch if you try to ask for a favor from him."

Xia Huyou didn't even deign to entertain that bragging. He said, "Since you're fine, I'll be taking my leave. Your disguise as Profound Nine is now safe. Be careful. I still need to keep searching the city for the killer."

Beside them, Bai Feng and Hong Tan looked at the two disapprovingly. These two were the main culprits for what happened to Xia Xinyi. Why were they acting like they were completely innocent?

Xia Huyou did not waste any time and left immediately. He was a very busy man. His time was precious.

As for Hong Tan and Bai Feng, they returned to seclusion, deciding once again that nothing could force them to exit their seclusion prematurely again. They swore to not leave before they broke through.

They were tired of this. Again and again, they were forced to exit seclusion due to a false alarm. Furthermore, they were forced to experience what it meant to be envious repeatedly. Su Yu had somehow established a connection with a bunch of Invincibles outside. In that case, they should really stop worrying about him. Rather, they should worry more about themselves.

***

After the two returned to seclusion, Su Yu was left alone in the research center.

He sighed. But inwardly, he felt great. This was such an amazing feeling. His mood had been great recently. Everything had been going smoothly for him as of late.

Of course, nothing was free. Even the help of the stone statue came with a price. The sudden death qi eruption ensured that Su Yu wouldn't forget this fact. Each time the stone statue left the city, he would need to endure an intense death qi eruption. Any other person would have died long ago.

"Reversal art!"

Su Yu mumbled to himself. This art had played a big role in helping him handle the death qi in his body. And this was an art he had obtained from the death spirit race.

Su Yu started thinking. Since he could use this art to convert death qi into source qi, could the death spirits do the same? But why had he never heard of a death spirit transforming into a living being? Was it possible that the transformation into a death spirit was a one-way street? Perhaps that was the case.

If so, he had to ensure he didn’t die. Otherwise, it would be highly unlikely for him to return to life after becoming a death spirit. There were so many death spirits out there, including the powerful death sovereigns. But he had never heard of anyone returning to life.

The devils were attempting to do so, but they had yet to succeed even after so many years. The difficulty was definitely unimaginably high.

"Well, I'm temporarily out of trouble."

Since he was no longer in trouble, it was time for him to get back to work. What was his work? Troublemaking. What else could it be?

That entire line needed to be investigated.

White One nodded, "I never expected this...sigh. Twelve elders entered the Human Realm. One died, and First Yellow betrayed us. We are left with only ten elders. As for the one hundred white masks, nineteen of them have perished so far."

This was a heavy loss. They were left with only ten elders and eighty white masks since Yellow Nine had also betrayed them. Of course, this only took the members of the four departments into consideration. Those from the Enforcement Unit were not counted among them.

The pavilion had also lost an elder while testing Su Yu. They had lost three late-stage Sunmoons and several other Sunmoons in a row. They had sustained heavy losses for this adventure in the Human Realm.

The enforcer elder sank into silence. After a long while, he said, "Profound Nine can't die. If he dies as well, our loss will be even bigger. Ask him if he's safe. If he's in trouble, we can mount a rescue operation."

"Yes!"

White One left to carry out his orders. As for the enforcer elder, he still felt greatly troubled. How troublesome.

As big as the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was, the losses they had incurred this time were still too heavy for them to simply shrug off. They had begun operations in some other prefectures as well, but strictly speaking, that was all thanks to Profound Nine, whose actions had spread their fame far and wide in the Human Realm.

Otherwise, they would have taken much longer to start their operations. They were also sending more and more of their experts to Great Xia. It was pointless to spare more manpower to the smaller prefectures. As for the other major prefectures, they had yet to even start operating there.

There was no need to talk about Great Qin. Even Great Ming was too dangerous for them. They had lost contact with almost all their people in Great Ming. And nobody knew if Great Ming King was still there. Who would dare to go there when an Invincible might be lurking?

"Sigh."

Without the backing of an Invincible in the Human Realm, things were very difficult for them. He wondered if any of their Invincibles would enter one day. If they could obtain the support of an Invincible, things would be much less difficult for them.

***

At the same time.

Somewhere in the wilderness outside Great Xia City.

A faceless elder and a white mask were looking at each other in a lonesome manner.

Yellow Nine said in a wronged manner, "Elder, I did not betray them!"

Yellow Nine felt terribly wronged. This felt miserable. Not long ago, Heavenly Hunt Pavilion had officially issued a bounty for them. Even First Yellow was implicated in this.

"That Profound Nine...is a bastard!" Yellow Nine cursed, "There might not even be a traitor at all. Profound Nine is sick in the head. Why is he insisting that there is a traitor?"

Not even Yellow Nine suspected that Profound Nine was a traitor. How could a traitor be so crazy? He had merely accused Profound Nine as a traitor out of desperation. He wasn't even serious. Who would have guessed that the pavilion would actually test it out? And who would have guessed that Su Yu was so violent, instantly getting so many people killed?

And now, the higher-ups were infuriated. They were demanding him to report himself to them. What nonsense. If he went there, they would definitely investigate him. To speak the truth, the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion was filled with people of questionable identity. Who could truly be clean? Would he dare to go? That was the same as throwing his life away.

After such disastrous losses, the pavilion was looking to make someone a scapegoat. And who would be the better scapegoat than Yellow Nine?

First Elder sighed, "So be it. It's no big deal. But...this is too obvious. Only the two of you survived. What can we do about it?"

The elder was basically telling Yellow Nine to stop pretending.

Yellow Nine was so furious he felt like coughing blood. Damn it! Even his elder couldn't trust him. In fact, even he himself was wondering if he had indeed betrayed them. But he couldn't remember doing so! Did he expose the operation accidentally?

This made zero sense.

Helpless, Yellow Nine could only shut his mouth. It was pointless to try explaining himself.
