"It's the Black Water Pirates!" Zi Yunxiang gave a surprising answer.
Whoosh —
Seventeen urgent letters were delivered to Su Yu.
Su Yu creased his brows as he flipped through them one by one.
Of the eighteen cities under the jurisdiction of the Yinyu Area, other than Yinyu City itself, the other seventeen had been attacked by the Black Water Pirates.
Kidnapping, murder, and arson had resulted in heavy casualties!
The city guards had limited abilities and could only defend.
The seventeen cities were in danger of falling at any time.
The crisis was unprecedented since the appearance of the Nameless Area.
Thus, the seventeen city masters were urgently requesting reinforcements.
It was no wonder that Zi Yunxiang would disturb Su Yu's training.
The territory was in chaos, the fire was burning their eyebrows.
If he delayed any longer, what awaited Su Yu would be the massacre of the seventeen cities.
As the master of the area, Su Yu could not escape the blame.
Before he arrived, a city had already been destroyed by the tide of beasts.
Now that he was the master of the area, how could he sit back and do nothing?
Of the eighteen cities, only Yinyu City was filled with powerful fighters. Only by mobilizing powerful fighters could the seventeen cities be saved!
But Su Yu held onto the seventeen letters, his eyes deep in thought, "Why did you only inform me now?"
Zi Yunxiang had been in the mood to bathe.
"I just received a request for help," Zi Yunxiang said softly. Beneath her long eyelashes, her eyes, as clear as the moon, dimmed a little.
Su Yu's suspicion was like a needle stabbing into her chest, causing her slight pain.
"You mean? Seventeen letters arrived at the same time? "Su Yu's thoughts deepened.
Zi Yunxiang said, "Yes! Elder Fan said that the envoys from the seventeen cities had somehow arrived at Yinyu City at the same time. That was how we found out about the crisis in the seventeen cities. "
The locations of the seventeen cities were different, and they were attacked by the Black Water Pirates at different times. But strangely, the envoys had arrived on the same day, revealing the crisis in the seventeen cities.
It went without saying that something was amiss.
"Palace Master, please give the order." Zi Yunxiang asked curtly, unknowingly using the word "Palace Master." An indistinct distance formed between the two of them.
But Su Yu was thinking about the crisis, and did not notice.
"Yes, gather the fighters in the city and form four armies." Su Yu waved his hand, writing an order and stamping it with the seal of the vice palace master.
With this order, as a citizen of Silver Plume City and the Empire of Darkness, they had to accept it unconditionally.
Anyone who disobeys will be punished according to the law!
"Yes! I will immediately respond to the special envoys of the 17 cities. " Zi Yunxiang remained expressionless, but inwardly, she sighed in relief. With this, perhaps the crisis of the seventeen cities could be resolved.
"Wait!" Su Yu called out softly, "Gathering the army is not to rescue the seventeen cities, but to seal off Yinyu City!"
Zi Yunxiang was shocked. "The 17 cities are in a crisis. If we do not send our troops in time, the people of the Yinyu Area will be in deep trouble. If we only protect Yinyu City, we will be despised by the people of the Yinyu Area!"
At such a critical moment, Su Yu had refused to rescue them. Instead, he was guarding against Yinyu City, disregarding the safety of the seventeen cities.
Su Yu's eyes shone brightly. "You have misunderstood! I sealed off Silver Plume City, not for defense! Don't you think that seventeen letters asking for help came too suddenly? "
"Why were 17 cities attacked, but only Silver Plume City remained unscathed?"
As intelligent as Zi Yunxiang was, she immediately understood. Her expression was filled with shock. "Palace Master, you mean that the Black Water Pirates intentionally created the crisis in the seventeen cities, with the goal of forcing Silver Plume City to attack? Only by evacuating the experts in the city would they be able to enter?"
"They are luring the tiger away from the mountain!"
But what truly shocked Zi Yunxiang was Su Yu's other intention. "You sealed off Silver Plume City because you suspect that the Black Water Pirates have already infiltrated Silver Plume City, waiting for an opportunity to strike?"
Su Yu's eyes were cold. "Yes! They could have already entered the city in disguise, waiting for an opportunity to strike! Since that is the case, I will go with the flow and catch them like turtles in a jar! "
But Zi Yunxiang could not let it go. "How can you be sure that they have entered the city? They should know that entering the city is extremely risky, right? Why would they take the risk to enter the city? "
Su Yu's deep eyes were filled with wisdom. "A person's most dangerous moment is when they are numb to their sense of security."
"If even you think that the Black Water Pirates would not take the risk to enter the city, it is clear that most people would not believe that the Black Water Pirates would have the guts to enter the city!"
These words caused Zi Yunxiang to suddenly feel nervous.
Indeed, she had overestimated the power of Silver Plume City, and had been too careless.
"Pass down my orders. Immediately seal off the city. Do not let a single person escape!" Su Yu ordered coldly. But this time, he added another condition. "Also, leave two gaps in the sealing of the city."
A meaningful smile appeared on his lips. "I wonder what your choice will be."
Leave gaps? Zi Yunxiang was surprised, but she had no objections. She carried out the orders.
With the token of the Area Master in her hands, the strong fighters in the city responded, gathering in all four corners of the city. Following Su Yu's orders, they mobilized the power of the entire city. It was time to catch a turtle in a jar.
In the restaurant.
The Second Head observed the crowd through the window, his eyes glowing with a strange light.
"Second Head, things are not looking good! Palace Master Yin Yu has issued an order to seal off Silver Plume City. Now, all the roads are gradually being sealed! "A black robed man reported anxiously.
The Second Head looked toward Silver Plume City, his eyes filled with fear. "As expected of him. He has already detected our presence!"
Su Yu's wisdom and calmness had left a deep impression on him the last time they fought.
But looking at it now, he realized that he had underestimated Su Yu!
He had thought that even if Palace Master Yin Yu had detected the conspiracy within the seventeen urgent letters, he would not be able to detect it.
But he did not expect Palace Master Yin Yu to be so bold as to determine that they had already infiltrated the city.
Now, they had caught a turtle in a jar. The Black Water Pirates, who had been waiting for an opportunity, were at a disadvantage.
Facing the encirclement of all the strong fighters in the city, the Black Water Pirates that he led could only bury their hatred in Silver Plume City.
The black robed man was shocked. "Second Head, should we retreat immediately? We still have a chance before the roads are completely sealed! "
Crack — —
The Second Head shattered the wooden table in front of him with a palm. It was not difficult to see the disappointment in his expression. He sighed. "Do I only have trash like you in my hands? You can't even see through a simple trap! "
"With Palace Master Yin Yu's wisdom, do you think that he would give you a chance to escape?"
"If I am not mistaken, the roads that have not been completely sealed are his intentions. He is giving you hope so that you will walk right into his trap! There are definitely strong soldiers lying in ambush there. In fact, it might even be him! "
The black robed man's heart trembled. He was indignant. Who exactly was Palace Master Yin Yu?
Wasn't the second in command being too fearful of him?
"Then Second Head, what should we do?"
The Second Head stood at his original position, lowering his head in deep thought. "We have two options. First, we await death and wait for the strong fighters in the city to search for us. That way, our brothers, who are scattered all over the city, will be dug out and killed on the spot!"
"Second, we gather our brothers and fight our way out of Silver Plume City! But I think that the moment we take action, we will be detected immediately. We will give him the opportunity to kill us all. "
The black robed man was anxious. If that was the case, they would die if they did not move. If they moved, they would also die!
Both options were hopeless!
The Second Head clenched his right fist, letting out crackling sounds. His eyes were filled with a desire to fight. "What a great Palace Master Yin Yu, what a great scheme! No matter what choice we make, we will die! "
"He wants to toy with us to our deaths!"
The black robed man was anxious. "Second Head, we will die either way. What should we do?"
They had taken the risk to enter the city, only to be seen through and end up like a turtle in a jar. It was unexpected.
"Hehe..." The Second Head shook his head, a cold smile on his face. "Who told you that we have to follow his decision?"
"Before we entered the city, I had already taken precautions and devised a plan! This is the third option! "
"Immediately send a message to all our brothers. We will attack the Yinyu Manor together!"
The black robed man was shocked. "What? Attack the Yinyu Manor? Isn't the strongest person in the city, Palace Master Yin Yu, guarding that place? Aren't we walking right into a trap if we go? "
Such a choice was too risky!
Second Head's lips curled into an unfathomable smile. "The safest place is also the most dangerous place! Do it immediately! "
...
Up in the sky, Su Yu stood with his hands clasped behind his back.
Behind him, Zi Yunxiang stood calmly.
Revolving his crystalline pupils, Su Yu stood high up in the sky, observing every movement in the city.
At this moment, all the paths had been sealed.
Including the two cracks that Su Yu had purposely slowed down. They were finally sealed.
But there were no major movements in the city.
Su Yu let out a deep smile. "The person who came is not simple. At least, he is not an ordinary Black Water Pirate."
Zi Yunxiang, who understood Su Yu's intentions, agreed. "That's right. He is in the middle of a chess game, but he can see through the situation and see through the traps. It is easy to say, but difficult to do. This person is indeed not ordinary."
Su Yu nodded, then shook his head. "Seeing through the traps only qualifies him. What is truly not simple is that he might not have chosen either of the two options I gave him. That is what makes him extraordinary!"
"This person is very intelligent."
Zi Yunxiang's eyes were filled with wisdom. "Whether they move or not, they will die. This is an overt plot. They have no other choice. Could the Black Water Pirate have seen through this? If that is the case, the person leading them is not simple. "
Su Yu lowered his head, observing the movements in the city. Everything was within his control.
"Hehe... If I am not wrong, he will definitely choose the third option!"
Zi Yunxiang asked curiously, "Under the killing blow, what other option does he have?"
Su Yu's gaze flashed. "In this world, the most dangerous place is also the safest place! Which option do you think they will take? "
A risky move!
They had set their sights on the Yinyu Manor!
"How is that possible? Staking it all on one throw is no different from a moth flying into a flame. "Zi Yunxiang could not understand.
Su Yu's eyes were filled with wisdom. "This person dares to take the risk to enter the city. He must be an intelligent person. He will definitely use this risky move!"
"I have already prepared a surprise for him."
Looking at the confident and energetic Su Yu, Zi Yunxiang was slightly dazed.
That peerless posture of him having everything under his control as he spoke caused people to raise their eyebrows.
But when she thought about Su Yu's fiancée, an indescribable sadness filled her eyes.
Traces of loneliness flashed past her beautiful face.
