"To be born in the same era as this guy is a tragedy for all of us." Ying Cheng smiled bitterly and shrugged his shoulders helplessly. As long as Su Yu's shadow shrouded the entire Zhenlong Continent, his peers would never be able to stand out.
Unexpectedly, Ling 'er, who was at the side, curled her lips in disdain. "Look at you, you have no fighting spirit at all! No wonder you could not reach Su Yu's level! Do you know that Su Yu had only stepped into the Zhenlong Continent four years ago? Do you know that four years ago, when we were all Saint Kings, he was still the lowest level of martial artists? Even three years ago, we weren't any weaker than him. So, how did Su Yu get to where he was now, one step at a time? The Hundred Territories Alliance fought against the heroes, the Dynasty branch defeated the Ten Great Region Masters, the Phoenix Cabinet created their own World's Edge for the person they loved, defeated all the geniuses of the north continent, and became the number one genius of the north continent! "
He then added, "Now that I have returned to the continent, I will use the Black Snow Devil King's body as Su Yu's. Then, I will use the power of a single person to turn the tide and lead the Heavenly Law Alliance to the continent's first great victory. Then, I will kill several hundred otherworldly Half Fairies, as well as a Grade Three Half Fairy with just a single strike. Then, I will be able to recover the Zhenlong Continent's first territory!"
"His achievements are the result of his hard work. As a man, to be able to reach this step, he can die without regrets. He is not like you, who only knows how to complain and be jealous." At the mention of Su Yu, Linger seemed to have turned into a chatterbox. She started chattering incessantly.
Ying Cheng was embarrassed and had nothing to say.
The middle-aged Hall Master smiled helplessly. "I've never seen you put so much effort into a mission. Yet, you actually managed to find out everything about the Heavenly Law Alliance's Alliance Master. Furthermore, you have already repeated his deeds more than three times, to the point that my ears are about to grow calluses."
Ling 'er's face turned slightly red when she heard this, and she glared angrily, "Father! What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just doing my duty as an intelligence agent to find out more about the Heavenly Law Alliance Master. I don't have any other intentions. "
The middle-aged Hall Master smiled meaningfully, "Hehe, I didn't say that Ling 'er had other intentions. Why are you so anxious?"
Hearing this, Ying Cheng's face darkened.
As an intelligence officer, his ability to read people's thoughts and body language was naturally higher than that of an ordinary person. He could sense that something was amiss from Ling 'er's eagerness to investigate the Heavenly Law Alliance's Alliance Master.
Now that the hall master reminded him, he immediately came to a realization.
Ling 'er was probably interested in the Heavenly Law Alliance Master!
Although Ying Cheng was jealous, there was nothing he could do.
It was rumored that the Heavenly Law Alliance's Master, Su Yu, was not only extremely powerful, but he was also extremely young and handsome. Moreover, he was also a person who valued relationships and was perfect in all aspects. Now that he had achieved a great victory in the continent, he was undoubtedly a great hero who had saved Zhenlong.
Which young girl would not look forward to such a person and not admire him?
"Father! I'm going to get angry if you talk nonsense again! "Ling 'er's face turned red as she glared at him angrily.
The middle-aged Hall Master found it funny and said, "Okay, okay, I won't say anymore."
In any case, it was impossible for them to have any interaction with such a legendary figure. Even if his daughter really had feelings for him, there was nothing he could do.
"Not good! That person is coming towards us!" The middle-aged hall master's expression suddenly changed.
Ling-er, who was embarrassed and angry, immediately found a place to vent. She stood up with a whoosh and said angrily, "I'll fight him!"
She was a One Crystal Half Fairy, so she could be considered an upper-class genius. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been entrusted with such a heavy responsibility by the empire and entered the ranks of the intelligence agency.
"Ling 'er …" The middle-aged Hall Master hurriedly shouted at her to stop, but it was already too late. He could only helplessly leap forward and protect Ling 'er.
Ying Cheng also stepped forward and examined the youth in front of him.
Apart from his excessively handsome face and his simple white clothes, he didn't seem to be anything special about him.
"Father, let me deal with him. You can judge whether he's an otherworldly person or not." After Ling 'er spoke, she angrily charged forward.
"Years Flow Like Water!" As Ling 'er pointed her finger at him, three water lotuses appeared above her head. Their petals then spun around and shot toward Su Yu.
Su Yu was somewhat helpless, as he wasn't clear about their identities. However, he could still discern that they weren't otherworldly people. He had just come over to greet them and ask them about the matter of entering the giant peak. However, he didn't expect that a beautiful girl would suddenly rush forward and throw a cultivation technique at him.
Since Su Yu was aware that it was just a misunderstanding, he wouldn't deal a heavy blow to her.
A water type cultivation technique? Su Yu muttered inwardly. It was far inferior to Xia Jingyu's.
Xia Jingyu was proficient in several hundred water type cultivation techniques, and most of them were more advanced than Years Flow Like Water.
"It's not bad." Su Yu chuckled and suppressed his cultivation on purpose. He then released the Level One Fairy Realm's Vital Energy and turned it into a shield in front of him.
Splutter!
When the petals hit the shield, a muffled sound echoed out as they shattered and turned into numerous raindrops. It seemed like rain was falling on a lotus.
It seemed like Su Yu had easily blocked it.
However, Ling 'er's eyes were filled with craftiness. "Humph! Do you think that my immortal level cultivation technique is so easy to block?"
Oh? Su Yu was surprised.
It was at this moment that many threads, which couldn't be seen by the naked eye, appeared among the shattered petals.
These threads connected all of the raindrops together. In other words, the raindrops were just used to deceive people, while the true power of the technique lay in the hidden threads.
The silk threads unknowingly dispersed and formed a large net. By the time Su Yu came to his senses, the net had already taken shape and caught him by surprise.
All of a sudden, Su Yu was like a turtle trapped in a jar.
Just after this, Ling 'er flew over and took out a small green sword from her waist. She then placed it against Su Yu's neck and said proudly, "Hey, didn't I tell you? You are just a lad trying to scare people. You are so weak, yet you still dared to come here and scare me."
Su Yu didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. This net was made of Vital Energy, and its power depended on the purity of Ling 'er's Spiritual Energy.
With his cultivation, he could easily shatter the net at any time if he wanted to.
He just didn't want any more misunderstandings to occur, so he just sat there and waited for his death.
Su Yu was left speechless by the little beauty's words, but he couldn't help but laugh. He wasn't just trying to scare them. They were just hiding somewhere, and Su Yu hadn't noticed them before he had descended on the mountain.
"Hall Master, how is it?" When Ying Cheng saw that Su Yu had been easily subdued by Ling 'er, he couldn't help but relax.
At this moment, the middle-aged Hall Master was holding a white jade plate in his hand.
A dark-red color could be faintly seen on it, and it was flickering.
"There's a reaction, which means that he's an otherworldly person. Ling 'er, let him go." The middle-aged Hall Master put away the jade plate and examined Su Yu.
Ling 'er clenched her hand and collected the net. She then curled her lips and said, "Lad, you should properly cultivate your power. The continent is quite chaotic now, and if you are discovered by the otherworldly experts with your meager power, you will surely meet the King of Hell."
Su Yu cupped his fists at her with a faint smile and said, "I will bear in mind your advice."
Ling 'er rolled her eyes at him and said, "You still have the face to smile? Really, you're just another guy with no ambition. "
Ling 'er shook her head. She didn't want to look at Su Yu anymore.
"Little brother, please forgive me for offending you." The middle-aged Hall Master cupped his fists at him and apologized.
"It's fine, I understand." Su Yu waved his hand at him and smiled.
The middle-aged Hall Master's eyes flickered. "Little brother, may I know what you are doing here? The otherworldly army is in front of us, and if you are discovered and recognized as a member of the Empire of Darkness, your end will be quite dangerous. In the past three years, all of the Empire of Darkness's people who fell into the otherworldly realm were tortured to death. "
If the otherworldly people wanted to invade the Empire of Darkness, they could only interrogate the captives.
The other factions' captives might not be in any danger, but the captives here were in grave danger.
Su Yu's eyes flickered as he wondered … Why does this person know so much about the Empire of Darkness's situation? It seems like he's most likely a member of the Empire of Darkness.
Moreover, since he was hiding here, it was likely that he wanted to return to the Empire of Darkness.
If he followed them, it wouldn't be difficult for him to enter the giant peak.
"I escaped from the northern continent's Hundred Territories Alliance, and I sought shelter with a distant relative of the Empire of Darkness. I didn't expect that the Empire of Darkness's situation would be so grave, and I wanted to enter it, but I didn't have any way to do so." Su Yu made up a lie.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged Hall Master sighed and said, "So, you escaped from the northern continent. It's no wonder that you didn't know how dangerous it is to come here."
Although he said this, his eyes flickered. It was obvious that he didn't believe Su Yu's words.
"Little brother, you should quickly leave this place. This place is too dangerous, so you shouldn't stay here for long." The middle-aged Hall Master cupped his fists at Su Yu and bid him farewell. He then waved his hand at Linger and Ying Cheng to follow him.
Su Yu thought to himself, Are they really on guard against me? They are really vigilant, as I have already suppressed my cultivation and lowered my threat level to the lowest possible level.
As Su Yu looked at them leaving, he wondered … How can I sneak into their group?
After the middle-aged Hall Master had walked a thousand meters away, Ying Cheng's eyes lit up, and he said, "Hall Master, it seems like this lad wants to follow us into the Empire of Darkness."
Linger blinked her eyes and snorted. "Hmph, it turns out that this lad still has such an idea in mind."
The middle-aged Hall Master nodded slightly. "Yes, I heard it clearly, so I will take you and leave immediately. Although he doesn't pose any threat to us, if we rashly bring him back to the Empire of Darkness's giant peak, and if he turns out to be an otherworldly spy, we won't be able to bear such a responsibility. "
Ying Cheng agreed with him, then said, "Spies bribed by the otherworldly world aren't anything new, so it's better for us to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Since all three of them had such thoughts, Su Yu's plan had failed.
"Wait! Don't go any further!" All of a sudden, the middle-aged Hall Master came to a stop, while his expression changed drastically. A faintly discernible aura, which was visible to the naked eye, had entered his nostrils.
Linger and Ying Cheng immediately started weaving signs with their hands, while a similar scene occurred. It seemed like they were able to absorb the unique aura in the air through their noses.
"It's awful! We have been discovered by someone, and a group of otherworldly experts is rushing over! Quickly run! "The middle-aged Hall Master made a prompt decision, then turned around and fled.
Linger and Ying Cheng's expressions also changed drastically. They were intelligence agents, and such a situation was common, so they both reacted quickly.
The direction in which the three of them were fleeing happened to be where Su Yu was.
"Ying Cheng, take him with you," the middle-aged Hall Master shouted in a deep voice.
Ying Cheng was quite displeased by this, as bringing along a burden at such a critical moment was really bad.
However, since the Hall Master had given him an order, he didn't dare to just leave Su Yu here to die. So, he grabbed Su Yu's shoulder and said, "If you don't want to die, then don't move!"
