Chapter 1851: The Friendly Su Yu (3)

With a smile, Su Yu said, "Of course. But the place might not exist anymore. I don't remember hearing of this place before. Great Zhou King, do you know the place?"

Great Zhou King laughed sheepishly and said, "Uhm..."

"Just answer." Su Yu said, "If you don't know, I'll consider it a dereliction of duty."

Great Zhou King could only answer with resignation, "I know. The former Lanshan is located within Great Zhou. It is no longer known as Lanshan. It is now known as Gengshan—"

"Change it." Su Yu said, "Great Zhou is hereby ordered to change the name of that place and restore its former name, Lanshan. It shall be bestowed upon Marquis Lanshan."

"Yes!" The overjoyed Marquis Lanshan hurriedly said, "Thank you, Emperor!"

"No need. That has always been yours."

Su Yu said, "Go and take a look. Director Wan, you will accompany Marquis Lanshan before returning to the Death Realm with her. The four domains have been pacified, but the Celestial River of Death and the Origin Land are yet uncontrolled. If you're interested, you can find He Tu and join him in his search for Ye Batian."

"Thank you, Emperor Yu."

Wan Tiansheng was quite surprised as well. So the Death Realm had indeed been pacified. Previously, he had thought that Su Yu was bragging. But now, it seemed like Su Yu had really done something incredible. The four domains were under his control, and he was even starting to encroach upon the river and the Origin Land.

Wan Tiansheng didn't know much about the Death Realm, but the widened eyes and agape mouths of the four made it clear that this was an incredible achievement.

He stood up, smiled, and said, "Marquis Lanshan, I am Wan Tiansheng."

Marquis Lanshan smiled and said, "I know your name. In that case, I'll be troubling you."

"Don't worry about it."

After cupping their fists at Su Yu, the two left. Marquis Lanshan couldn't wait any longer. With the two gone, Su Yu looked at the others. Silence engulfed the hall as the four were still immersed in their shock.

With a smile, Su Yu said, "I'm afraid Marquis Lanshan isn't too close to Stable Army Marquis. If Stable Army Marquis has anything to say, feel free to let me know. I'll pass the message to Marquis Lanshan."

Zhao Chuan could no longer remain seated. He stood up while trembling and dropped down on one knee. After swallowing nervously, he said, "Zhao Chuan, a soldier under Stable Army Marquis' command, greets Emperor Yu."

Seeing what he was doing, the other three hesitated slightly before dropping on one knee as well.

With the same smile on his face, Su Yu said, "You are too polite. You are guests from the Upper Realm, also subordinates of an ancient marquis. You are essentially my seniors. How can a youngster like me receive such treatment from you?"

"We wouldn't dare."

Zhao Chuan and the others couldn't calm down from their boundless shock. The new human lord had...conquered the Death Realm! Not only did he dominate the world of the living, but he had also conquered the Death Realm behind the scenes. No human had achieved such a feat since the ancient past.

How terrifying.

A conquerer.

No other human lord apart from the Human Emperor had achieved such a level of glory.

Previously, they had only thought that the new human lord was lucky to be blessed with a large number of powerful subordinates. Sure, they feared him slightly. But now, they were terrified of him. They couldn't stop shaking before him.

Zhao Chuan had been so confident that they were useful as Stable Army Marquis had mentioned the human death spirits. But the moment he mentioned the death spirits, the human lord had summoned Marquis Lanshan over.

And from Marquis Lanshan's attitude, it was clear she had completely submitted to Su Yu. From her report, the legendary South Heavenly King of the four heavenly kings had also submitted. What a terrifying piece of news.

Su Yu had the same smile on his face as he said, "You guys are too courteous. The humans of this epoch do not care too much about such gestures. It's the same in the Death Realm. Puresolar Marquis and the others are too stiff, caring too much about these gestures of respect. But the humans of the primordial past were different. That old fart called Martial Emperor, for example, was quite rude toward me. I guess I need to find a chance to kill him for his insolence..."

Silence descended.

Primordial past. Martial Emperor.

Su Yu had mentioned these names nonchalantly, but each of them struck their hearts like a hammer.

Su Yu continued, "Great Zhou King, take them with you. Just be sure to get the maps I want. Treat them well and try to look for the corresponding coordinates of the Death Realm under the Human Realm. Try to verify the danger level. Do it in secret."

Suddenly, Su Yu called out, "Openmountain, Battledome!"

Shortly after, the two guardians arrived.

Su Yu said, "Both of you have survived from the ancient past as well. Join Great Zhou King and accompany our guests as they look around. While you're at it, look for the tunnels those in the ancient past might have opened. If you are worried about the danger, you can request help from Heavendoom and the others. Things will be fine. You have enough numbers to kill even three or five Daofuses."

Zhao Chuan and the others kept their heads lowered, their bodies trembling.

Even Great Zhou King blanked out slightly. When he focused, he sensed the appearance of several powerful auras.

He looked at Su Yu in shock. After a long while, he said, "Emperor Yu...the guardians...are already Daofuses?"

Su Yu smiled and said, "Yes, but only some. Including General Grand Dream, there are only eleven of them."

He sighed and continued, "That's such a small number. Including the death spirit Daofuses, I only have about fifty on my side. How am I supposed to face the Upper Realm with this? How troublesome."

Great Zhou King was completely unaware of this. Openmountain and the others had only entered the Human Realm through an alternative entrance known to the old turtle. Initially, Great Zhou King had assumed that the newcomers were Great Qin King and Great Xia King.

But no. Su Yu clearly had more Daofuses hidden away. Great Zhou King was truly unaware of this matter before this.

His expression turned odd. Su Yu had actually fought the previous battle with more than ten Daofuses hidden away. The guardians had not been deployed. Fat Ball wasn't there either. There was also the five elemental race. They seemed to have submitted to Su Yu as well. Right, there was also September...

Numerous thoughts surfaced on Great Zhou King's mind. Shortly after, he laughed and said, "Sure. I will take Zhao Chuan and the others to He Tu and start our search."

Su Yu said, "In that case, this is where we part ways. My apologies for not showing you around personally, friends from the Upper Realm. I am too busy. Do let Great Zhou King know of any requests you have. I will be counting on you when I enter the Upper Realm in the future."

At this point, Zhao Chuan and the others were starting to find it hard to remain standing. Their legs were feeling weak. Even speaking seemed hard for Zhao Chuan as he said with great difficulty, "You are too polite, Emperor Yu. If you wish to enter the Upper Realm, Stable Army Marquis will definitely welcome you personally! He wouldn't dare to slight you!"

"Good."

Su Yu said, "In that case, I'll find a chance to pay the Upper Realm a visit. Upper Realm...I guess that's a good place to kill some people. There are so many Daofuses up there. I still have some guardians who are not Daofuses. How troublesome. Hopefully, killing fifty or so Daofuses will be enough to help them all advance."

Silence descended.

Meanwhile, both Openmountain and Battledome grinned. Killing Daofuses in the Upper Realm to advance? That was actually a good idea! Not bad at all!

"I'll be taking my leave now. Enjoy your time here."

With a smile, Su Yu vanished.

Openmountain's ears flickered as he received his final message. Then, he smiled and said, "Great Zhou King, we will be protecting you in secret. Do inform me of any requests you have. According to Emperor Yu, we should satisfy all requests of our respected guests."

At that, the guardians vanished with a flicker as well. Instead of leaving, they had hidden themselves nearby. Great Zhou King looked at the four visitors. Zhao Chuan's clothings were already drenched with sweat. He hurriedly dried himself before looking at Great Zhou King.

Great Zhou King was the sole person capable of making them feel slightly safe here. That new human lord was too terrifying.

Great Zhou King softly said, "Just do your job well. Complete the map, find the tunnels, and find a way to explore the Upper Realm. Do not think of including any fake information in what you provide. Be honest about things you don't know. Devilroil and the others are dead. There is a way to extract their memories. If you are found lying...you know the consequences."

Zhao Chuan said bitterly, "Senior, we never meant harm. Truly..."

"It doesn't matter. Just don't do anything stupid. Don't even look at what you're not supposed to look at. Knowing too much might not be a good thing for you. You saw Marquis Lanshan. You saw the guardians. You are already aware of some of the secrets of the current human lord."

Once again, Zhao Chuan started sweating profusely. He hurriedly said, "This junior understands. From now on, we will serve Emperor Yu loyally!"

Great Zhou King smiled and said, "Good. Looks like you're smart, after all. I only hope that Stable Army Marquis will be just as smart."

Then, he stopped talking. How terrifying. The four visitors were not the only ones shocked and scared. Great Zhou King himself was feeling the same.

Unknowingly, Su Yu's power had reached such a terrifying level.
