Chapter 1378: Don't Offend Women (3)

Further away, Su Yu's heart thumped.

Dao King was talking about the carrier treasure. Since the white-haired divine king was suddenly talking about the carrier treasure, there must be an issue with it. He had studied the carrier treasure for quite a while after receiving it. However, he had failed to discover anything wrong with it. Was it possible that the white-haired divine king could sense the carrier treasure, after all?

Holy shit!

Could Liu Hong handle this? None of them had expected this.

With a laugh, Liu Hong said, "You want it back? My apologies. I have too many useless things like that. Thus, I gave it to my Lord Sovereign Xing Yue. If you want it back, sure. Just die. I'll get Lord Xing Yue to awaken you from your death and return it to you. Deal?"

"..."

Death Realm!

The white-haired divine king swore inwardly. Damn it! Did this bastard throw his carrier treasure into the Death Realm?

Damn it!

No wonder he couldn't sense it anymore. What was this madman doing? Did he really give it to the death sovereign? That was an invaluable treasure! How could he do this?

While the white-haired divine king was deep in thought, Liu Hong said, "Everyone, all will prosper from peace. There is no need for you to target me like this. What did I ever do to you? Did I kill everyone in your family or something? Don't force my hand. Also, do you still acknowledge the tokens allocated previously? If you do, play nice and keep following the rules. If not...well, I guess my mood will decide whether everyone gets to enter the mansion this time. Of course, you are free to challenge me if you doubt my words."

While speaking, Liu Hong was busy thinking as well. He knew that the white-haired divine king had given Su Yu a carrier treasure. Why was the divine king mentioning the carrier treasure suddenly? Was the carrier treasure problematic?

Had Su Yu dealt with the problem? Whatever. He was only in charge of acting. Everything else was Su Yu's problem to solve.

He had to admit that it felt amazing to become Su Yu. He could run his mouth against Pseudo Emperors and Invincibles yet they couldn't do anything to him. This felt great.

Just then, the white-haired divine king sent a voice transmission, "Dao King, Su Yu is withstanding the burden of three cities alone. Earlier, only Grandstar fought. Join hands with me and force the other two stone statues to act as well."

Dao King's eyes flickered as he replied, "Are you suspicious of something?"

"No...but I still feel uncomfortable about this. Su Yu is loved by luck. If someone like him is allowed to enter the mansion, he might benefit greatly from the mansion and become an even bigger problem for us."

The two conversed secretly. Grandstar was the only stone statue that had acted earlier. Were the other two stone statues incapable of acting due to Su Yu's heavy injuries? Or was there a different reason for that?

Or perhaps Su Yu was only capable of hiding the death qi when only one stone statue was out. When three of the stone statues were out, he wouldn't be able to hide his death qi anymore.

The white-haired divine king wanted to give it another try. More importantly, he was unhappy that he had lost his carrier treasure. If he had known that the immortals would issue a kill order against Su Yu, he wouldn't have bothered to give Su Yu the carrier treasure. At the time, he had relented because he was worried that Su Yu might go mad and target him before dying. But from how things had developed, Su Yu would probably go after the immortals before anyone else. Was his carrier treasure really in the Death Realm? He found this hard to accept.

Before long, the two reached an agreement. The other divine kings and immortal kings received their new order.

Attack.

They would attack Grandstar, Rainbow Rain, and Empyrean Cloud Cities. Even if they were looking at the real Su Yu, this might be enough to kill him through death qi overdose. And if the stone statues did not react to their provocation, it wouldn't matter.

That would only signify that Su Yu was no longer a threat. The stone statues wouldn't be that much of a threat if they couldn't leave their cities.

Next, the air shook as one expert after another attacked out of nowhere. The three ancient cities were being attacked at the same time.

Immediately, the three stone statues sallied out of their cities to meet the attackers.

Far away, Su Yu trembled.

***

Inside the city.

Instantly, Old Man Bai's face turned gray. He had the ability to withstand the death qi of three cities as well. Su Yu had reached an agreement with Empyrean Cloud and the others to assign a position in each city to Old Man Bai. However, this was meant to be a last resort.

Unfortunately, the three stone statues had been forced to act so soon after their arrival. Death qi started seeping out of Old Man Bai's body. Half the source qi in his yang acupoint was eroded away by the death qi in an instant.

At this rate, he wouldn't be able to last more than ten minutes. In the sky, Liu Hong's face turned gray as well. He swore inwardly. Grandstar had transferred a part of the burden to him. Damn it! Why did Grandstar not warn him beforehand? This was getting very dangerous! He was aware that Old Man Bai wouldn't be able to withstand this for long.

***

The three stone statues were furious.

Nine Invincibles had attacked them at the same time.

Among the attackers, Dao King and the white-haired divine king were almost as strong as the stone statues. Each stone statue was forced to face three attackers. In his fury, Grandstar roared, "Guardians, descend!"

Boom!

One projection after another appeared in the sky.

In the blink of an eye, countless punches and kicks dropped down from the sky.

Space collapsed while Invincibles bled.

***

Far away.

Su Yu looked alarmed. Like everyone around him, he trembled in fear. Inwardly, he was swearing.

How audacious of them. Were they really not afraid that the guardians would flip out?

At the same time, Great Xia King looked at Great Zhou King. However, Great Zhou King merely frowned and said, "Be patient. We—"

Before he could finish, a shining blade soared into the sky.

With a hum, it swung toward an Invincible.

As a response, Moge stepped forth from the devil encampment and stopped the blade with a punch before indifferently saying, "This is a battle between the ancient cities and the two races. Why must the humans interfere?"

He did not want to get involved in this, but he didn't want the humans to benefit from this either. That was why the devils had not joined the attack against the ancient cities yet they wouldn't allow the humans to interfere.

Before long, the Invincibles from the nether and dragon races stepped forth as well. They all stared at Great Xia King silently, their stance clear. This was something the humans shouldn't interfere with or they would all join the fight as well.

Great Xia King looked at the Invincibles coldly. Individually, he was stronger than any of them. But there was no guarantee that he would be able to handle all of them at once. Furthermore, each of the three races had more than one Invincible present.

Meanwhile, the battle between the ancient cities and the Invincibles grew in intensity. With a furious roar by Empyrean Cloud, her city transformed into a sword. With a flicker, it vanished, leaving only a massive black hole in its previous spot.

The expressions of Grandstar and the others changed drastically upon seeing that.

Empyrean Cloud was losing her mind.

"You are courting death!"

Instantly, she depetrified. Ignoring the black hole she left behind, she grabbed her sword and swung it. The sword extended endlessly, as though it had become the sole sword in the Allheaven Battlefield.

With a splurt, an immortal king's head was cut apart.

That did nothing to quench her anger. How dare they provoke her? She was no pushover!

The expressions of the immortal and divine kings changed drastically. Their change in expression was not due to Empyrean Cloud. Rather, it was because a death sovereign was looking out of the black hole with a wary and surprised look. Then, the death sovereign roared with laughter and flew out.

The seal was gone!

That crazy woman had actually removed the seal!

He, Yanmo, was finally free!

He was not alone. Countless death spirits were rushing out of the black hole. In all the other ancient cities, the death sovereigns were roaring as well, "Go! Go to Empyrean Cloud's tunnel!"

That lunatic had removed the seal!

Clearly, she had lost her mind to her anger.

Everyone's expression changed. As for the devils, they were pleasantly surprised to see Yanmo out. What a surprise. He had returned without any help from them.

"Impudent!"

Right at that moment, the sky changed color.

A massive ancient city descended from the sky. With a rumble, it suppressed the black hole and smashed all the death spirits apart, including Yanmo.

Grand Dream City had arrived.

The old turtle appeared in the sky. He looked furious as he glanced at Empyrean Cloud and the other Invincibles. Instantly, a massive turtle shell appeared in his hand. He brought the shell down upon Dao King.

Dao King was alarmed. At the same time, a ray of light shot out of the eye in his palm.

Boom!

The eye was smashed apart alongside Dao King's body. Before Dao King could regrow his body, his dao fell apart with a rumble as the space around him collapsed. With a roar, he regrew his body again only for it to be smashed apart again.

"Emperor—"

Tiangu's voice rang out from the sky, "Brother Grand Dream, this is a misunderstanding..."

The old turtle ignored him. Instead, he berated, "Impudent! Empyrean Cloud! Return and seal the entrance!"

With an indignant snort, Empyrean Cloud's sword transformed back into an ancient city before returning to its previous spot. As the old turtle moved away, the city pressed down upon the black hole. Then, Empyrean Cloud returned to the city and transformed back into a stone statue.

Next, a spatial tear appeared before Grand Dream City. With a flicker, Grand Dream City shot toward the northern sector.

Boom!

A terrifying scene unfolded before everyone's eyes. The massive ancient city was madly attacking the Immortal Realm's barrier.

Boom!

One immortal king after another charged out only to be blasted apart by the city. Some unlucky immortal kings lost all their tri-life bodies at once.

The old turtle appeared above the Immortal Realm in his main body and roared, "How dare you? Damn you! Tiangu, others might be ignorant, but is that an excuse for the immortals? Since you wish to die, I shall fulfill your wish."

His usual calm was nowhere to be seen. The massive city continued ramming into the Immortal Realm, alarming the various immortal kings.

Death qi started seeping into the barrier of the Immortal Realm as the furious turtle continued attacking madly. Meanwhile, the projections of the other Pseudo Emperors started appearing outside their respective realms.

The expression of the Divine Pseudo Emperor changed repeatedly as he sent a voice transmission, "Retreat! Now! Immediately!"

Holy shit!

They had somehow driven the old turtle mad.

In truth, what they did earlier wasn't enough to provoke such anger from the old turtle. But Empyrean Cloud had gone mad and gone against the laws. Was that lunatic not afraid of death?

Right at that moment, crimson clouds converged in the sky above Empyrean Cloud City.

A blood tribulation was manifesting.

Empyrean Cloud raised her head to look at the sky and snorted. With a furious voice, she said, "Where were you when they were humiliating me? Why were you silent then, you useless laws? We have worked diligently for a hundred thousand years. Is this how you repay us?"

The blood tribulation continued growing in strength. Clearly, it intended to kill Empyrean Cloud.

Right at that moment, the old turtle said, "Tiangu, join hands with me and scatter the tribulation or today will be the day we give up on our posts. This will be the end of the Myriad Realms."

Boom!

Meanwhile, the projections of the stone statues were slowly turning solid.

Grandstar roared furiously, "Abandon the tunnels and kill! Kill them all! Let blood wash over the Myriad Realms! If the heavenly laws dare to kill Empyrean Cloud, we will defy the heavens!"

Silence enveloped the world.

An intense sense of crisis was assaulting everyone.

Danger.

Extreme danger.

If the thirty-six stone statues were to abandon the ancient cities, they would die to the heavenly laws. However, everyone else would suffer alongside them.

Tiangu's voice rang out, "Join hands and scatter the tribulation!"

Tiangu was swearing inwardly as well.

Fuck!

𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Empyrean Cloud was crazy! If she really died to the tribulation, a calamity would befall the Myriad Realms. The guardians wouldn't even be their biggest concern. Rather, it would be the death spirits.

This was troublesome.

This was the very first time a guardian had ever done something like this.

Only now did Tiangu come to a realization that these guardians...were capable of feeling emotions. That was especially true for Empyrean Cloud. She clearly had a terrible temper.

She had gone mad with only a tiny bit of provocation. Only three Invincibles had attacked her yet she had grown so angry that she directly abandoned the seal. What madness was that?

"Hmph!"

With a snort, the old turtle left with his city. At the same time, all the Pseudo Emperors raised their arms and attacked the blood tribulation. The old turtle joined them and rammed into the blood tribulation with his city.

They had to scatter the tribulation or Empyrean Cloud would die. This tribulation had appeared due to her dereliction of duty. This was an offense punishable by death.
