Chapter 1215: Eruption Of War (2)
Outside.
Su Yu was still doubtful about Dao Cheng's reason for walking with him.
After a while, Dao Cheng asked, "Are you Su Yu?"

Su Yu replied, "You are free to believe what you want. Immortal Lord Dao Cheng, my words won't change what you believe, right?"
Dao Cheng laughed, "True. However...I still have something I wish to say. The Xia Family's plan will likely fail. There are too many matters holding them back. They wish to lure the traitor out, but it won't be that easy or simple. Even if Liu Wenyan manages to become a ninth-stage Sunmoon, what can the Xia Family do if the traitor refuses to come out?"
"What are you trying to say, Immortal Lord Dao Cheng?"
Dao Cheng stared at Su Yu for a while before smiling, "In truth, the person with the highest likelihood to lure the traitor out is Su Yu. He is a true genius. I refuse to believe someone like him can die to something like death qi corrosion. Just look at how good he's doing in the ancient city. He even has the stone statue acting as his dao protector. He is the biggest threat to the traitor. He is the only person the traitor fears."
Su Yu nodded, "True."
Dao Cheng continued, "Thus, Liu Wenyan or anyone else can't guarantee the success of this plan. I believe Su Yu is the only person they can rely on. Killing Su Yu in the Allheaven Battlefield is almost impossible. He has the protection of the ancient city. Even Devil King Lade and the others had suffered tremendously thanks to those stone statues when they attempted to go after him. The traitor won't be able to touch him either. Killing Su Yu in the Human Realm is his best chance at removing this threat before it matures."
Su Yu nodded again. Yes, that was what he believed as well. Sure enough, as fellow young geniuses, they were similarly smart. Unfortunately, Dao Cheng was a tiny bit lacking in his decision-making. As a result, he lost his fiancee.
Su Yu replied nonchalantly, "Are you saying all these because you believe I'm Su Yu and you're trying to goad me into revealing myself?"
Dao Cheng laughed, "Not at all. You misunderstand me, Brother Profound Nine. If...note the if I'm using. If you're Su Yu, you will indeed be an incredible threat. Su Yu with the combat strength of a third-stage Sunmoon, a white mask of the pavilion with the potential to become an elder, also the mayor of an ancient city." "Even when the traitor is discovered in the future, Liu Wenyan and the others might not necessarily have the ability to do anything to him. But Su Yu does not rely on the backing of human Invincibles. Rather, he is backed by ancient Invincibles who are not even humans. He has nothing to fear."
"The human Invincibles might refuse to help unless Liu Wenyan or someone else manages to become an Invincible. But that is not something Su Yu needs to worry about. He only needs to forge a good relationship with those stone statues. With the backing of those stone statues, the traitor stands no chance against him."
"Liu Wenyan does not have the ability to kill an Invincible before becoming an Invincible. But Su Yu has the ability to get an Invincible killed before becoming an Invincible."
Su Yu smiled and said, "Thus, if Su Yu shows up in the Human Realm, the traitor will definitely make a move. A good plan, Immortal Lord Dao Cheng. But you seem to have a grudge against Su Yu as well. Don't you want to kill him yourself?"
Dao Cheng sighed, "That will be too difficult. Almost impossible. That is why I'm hoping that you're Su Yu. If you're Su Yu, perhaps...not even an Invincible is enough to kill you. You never know, right?"
Dao Cheng laughed.
It did not matter if Profound Nine was really Su Yu. Even if there was a tiny possibility that Profound Nine was Su Yu, these words might be the push Su Yu needed to reveal himself. That would turn him into the target of an unknown Invincible. Here, Su Yu lacked the protection of his ancient city.
Su Yu laughed and said, "Sure. These are interesting words. And they did give me a good idea. May I suggest that you issue a mission to the pavilion and have them send someone to the ancient city? That person only needs to shout these words outside the city. Perhaps Su Yu will really come after hearing these words."
Dao Cheng gave Su Yu a deep look and smiled, "Sure."
Profound Nine...Su Yu...
It did not matter if Profound Nine was Su Yu. He only needed to pass these words to Su Yu’s ears.
Su Yu was a much bigger threat than Liu Wenyan. Anyone with an eye could see that. Even if Liu Wenyan managed to reach the ninth-stage Sunmoon Realm, he still wouldn't pose a threat to an Invincible. But Su Yu was different. To be precise, of all the humans in existence, Su Yu was the sole non-Invincible capable of posing that traitor a threat.
When Great Qin King's son told him to kill an Invincible, would Great Qin King do so unhesitatingly without first thinking about the consequences?
No.
But Su Yu could.
Those ancient cities did have such misgivings. Back when the death spirits had been slaughtering everyone in the ancient city, those stone statues had not treated the humans there favorably.
Putting himself in the position of the traitor, Dao Cheng concluded that he only needed to be wary of Su Yu, not Liu Wenyan or anyone else. Thus, if an opportunity appeared for the traitor to kill Su Yu outside the ancient city, the traitor would definitely grab it. The conversation ended and Dao Cheng moved away from Su Yu.
Beside Su Yu, First Profound asked through voice transmission, "Did he discover your identity?"
"No. That was merely a test."
Inwardly, Su Yu was lamenting his brilliance that couldn't be covered no matter how hard he tried.
He was already working so hard to hide himself. He had the stone statue mask his absence. He took his mask off to show his face as someone from the fiery eye race. He displayed the strength of a third-stage Sunmoon. He used ability blood essence to strengthen the fact that he was not a human. He even attacked Xia Xinyi to drive the point home.
Even after all that, he had still fallen under suspicion. What else could he say? He was simply too outstanding. When the others noticed his excellence, they would have no choice but to think of the only person so outstanding in the Myriad Realms, Su Yu.
Sure enough, all geniuses were lonely.
Su Yu sighed with regret.

The next day.
The atmosphere was getting more and more tense.
Early in the morning, the aura of someone stepping into the Sunmoon Realm rose from Nanyuan. The aura resembled Chen Yong's. Prior to this, he was only a ninth-stage Mountainsea. After a night in the city, he had begun his advancement into the next realm.
As for Liu Wenyan, he was not showing any signs of further advancement. A group of Pseudo Invincibles were holding a meeting up in the sky.
"We can't keep waiting. Liu Wenyan's success might not be a good thing for us."
"There is no need to wait. Let's make a move immediately."
The experts started exchanging opinions through voice transmission. It was pointless to keep waiting. That would only give Liu Wenyan more time to complete his advancement.

Elsewhere.
Those from Great Ming and Great Qin had joined up. With a solemn expression, Zhu Tiandao said, "Are they losing patience? Qin Hao, do you think we, the triple number twos can do this?"
First, Qin Hao blanked out. But soon, understanding dawned on him, rendering him speechless.
Triple number twos.
That was accurate since he, Marquis Xia, and Zhu Tiandao were each the number two child in their respective family.
Qin Hao inhaled deeply, gazed at the sky, and solemnly said, "There are too many of them. This won't be easy to handle. I feel like all three of us will die here."
After a short pause, he laughed, "So be it. Our deaths will make it much harder for these people to leave the Human Realm safely."
He asked, "Where's Great Ming King?"
"Boundless void." Zhu Tiandao shook his head, "Don't bother putting your hope in him. He won't be able to make it."
Great Ming King couldn't leave his current position as that would expose the Human Realm to an invasion of Invincibles in their main bodies.
He added, "Including my old man, eight human Invincibles are protecting our borders in the boundless void. That is enough to prevent any invasion, but they won't be able to interfere with whatever is happening in the Human Realm."
As Zhu Tiandao spoke, his breathing grew heavy. His expression grew even more solemn than before. Fourteen Pseudo Invincibles. He could feel the existence of those Pseudo Invincibles.
The Pseudo Invincibles were not deliberately spreading their auras, but just by grouping up, they had caused the very air around them to stagnate. It was lucky that no regular person was left in the area or those people would lose the ability to breathe right about now.
With his spear in hand, Qin Hao gazed at the human experts in the distance and laughed. He shook his head and said, "We can't rely on any of them. Sigh. If this had happened four hundred years ago, no human Sunmoon would stand aside and do nothing while their fellow humans were under siege." "Over the years, the Invincibles have focused too much on the Allheaven Battlefield and neglected the Human Realm. After so many years, most of those from the previous generations have died. Those from the younger generations have forgotten what our seniors used to know. Hopefully, it is still not too late to wake them up...with our blood."
Zhu Tiandao said, "You are free to use your blood that way, but I'm not interested in that."
