Tribulation of Myriad Races

Inside the room.

After saying all they had to say and handing over the things Su Yu had prepared, the two sank into silence.

After a long while, Su Long said, "There are things you need to do. I can't help you with that. Since nobody is monitoring us, let me cook you a meal."

Su Yu felt like someone was gripping his heart. His thoughts were in a mess. After a long while, he nodded, "Alright. I've been missing your red braised pork."

How long had it been? After cooking him that final meal in Nanyuan, his father had left for the Allheaven Battlefield. Today, he was finally able to eat another meal cooked by his father. When would he get to eat a meal prepared by his father again after this?

There was a kitchen in Su Yu's residence. Numerous food ingredients were already available, so they didn't even need to get someone to buy anything for them. Su Long started cooking in the kitchen.

Su Yu stood nearby and watched silently. Not far away, Chen Long silently moved his gaze away from the two. Father and son stopped talking. They were no longer playing jokes on each other.

Su Long was very familiar with cooking. In less than half an hour, several dishes were prepared.

"Eat."

Su Yu picked up the chopsticks and started stuffing the food down his throat. But as he ate, tears started dripping down his eyes. He lowered his head, not wanting his father and Chen Long to notice that.

"Dad, the meat isn't fresh...

"This isn't salty enough. It's not that delicious.

"Dad, your cooking skills have declined."

"..."

Su Yu started complaining about the food while choking with emotions. He didn't want to cry. He had never cried even when Sunmoons were trying to kill him. But for some reason, he couldn't hold his tears back.

"Cook better next time."

Su Long was not a smoker. But today, he took out a pack of cigarettes out of nowhere and lit one of the cigarettes before taking a seat beside Su Yu. While smoking, he said, "Eat more. You need food to grow your body. Don't think that you can stop eating just with your cultivation.

"Don't worry about me. No matter what, the Xia Family will protect me. Unless they fully descend into chaos and people like Great Xia King are all dead, nothing will happen to me. But at that point, the entire Human Realm would be in chaos as well. There would be nowhere safe for me. Running or staying would not make a difference."

Suddenly, Su Long choked on the smoke and coughed. After a while, he continued, "I won't come again after this. One visit is fine, but more visits will invite suspicion. Don't agree to Chen Long's request. Why should you help the Devil Subduing Army for no reason? There is no need for you to keep in touch with him after this."

"..."

When Su Long was done with the cigarette, he stood up, put the plates away, and started cleaning the place while saying, "It's getting late. We need to leave now if we don't want anyone to suspect us. I'll say that I'm here to ask about my son. Just watch your back when you're alone."

"Alright."

Su Yu lowered his head, not in the mood to say anything.

When Su Long was done cleaning up, he wiped his hands dry and patted Su Yu's head instead of delivering Su Yu another slap. He sighed and said, "In the end, the fault lies on your father for being useless. Otherwise, who would dare to bully you? I would simply cut them down. Since you don't have enough strength yet, just be patient. You're young. You can simply outlive them."

"..."

After saying all he had to say, Su Long smiled and said, "I'll be taking my leave. Do you have anything else to tell me?"

"Take care..."

"Do I need you to tell me that? I won't die before seeing my grandchildren!"

Su Long grinned and turned around to leave.

Su Yu followed behind him silently. With a sigh, Chen Long walked with them. When they reached the door, Su Long laughed loudly and said, "Many thanks, Master Cui. I'm glad to hear that my kid is fine. I hope I didn't bother you too much with my questions, Master Cui."

"Don't worry about it." Su Yu suppressed the melancholy in his heart and smiled as well, "Uncle Su, feel free to visit me when you have the time. Su Yu is a great friend of my teacher. You can look for me if you need anything."

Chen Long interrupted, "Master Cui, about the Devil Subduing Army..."

Su Yu laughed and said, "About that...cough, cough. I will be quite busy for a bit. We can talk about this in the future."

"Sigh."

Chen Long was greatly disappointed. Beside him, Su Long laughed awkwardly. The two cupped their hands at Su Yu before leaving. They walked with a hurried pace, as though they were somewhat unhappy with the result of this meeting.

Su Yu saw them off with a smile on his face. Inwardly, he was unable to calm his emotions.

After a moment, Consul Liu walked over and said, "Junior Brother, did you not reach an agreement with them? By the way, I scolded those fellows for you. Please don't mind them too much."

Su Yu waved his hand and said, "It's no big deal. I wasn't aware earlier, but since that's Su Yu's father, it was understandable. As for that Chen Long, his offer is shockingly low. The nerve of him. Did he think that I would say yes just because he brought Su Yu's father with him?

"Yes, I need to show Su Yu some respect. But his father isn't even a general. I showed them enough respect by meeting them for so long. You saw it with your own eyes."

Consul Liu nodded, "Exactly. You already showed them sufficient respect. That Chen Long was simply too ignorant. Su Yu might be impressive, but you're not his subordinate. He must be dreaming if he thought he could suppress you with Su Yu's name."

Su Yu waved his hand and said, "I doubt he was trying to do that. I reckon that was really the best offer they could give. After all, it's Great Xia. It's understandable if they're poor, right? Hahahaha!"

Consul Liu laughed as well. True. It was not wrong to call Great Xia poor.

After a short chat, Su Yu said, "Senior Brother, do you have the recent news about the frontlines? Can you send me a copy? I'm thinking about taking a walk out there. It's too annoying to stay here. These people will keep coming to recruit me. It's rude to reject them all and I might even offend some of them. Just tell the future visitors that I'm in seclusion to forge weapons and I'm not seeing anyone."

"Leaving for the frontlines?"

Consul Liu hurriedly said, "Things aren't so peaceful at the moment."

"It's fine. I won't be going too far. It's not like I've never been out there before." Su Yu indifferently said, "How dangerous could it get? Would I stumble upon a Mountainsea? I have some Mountainsea talismans on me so I can at least run away from them. This place is still considered our territory so things will be fine."

"In that case, be sure to not go too far. Chaos is starting to descend. The geniuses of the various races are starting to appear. You need to be careful even when you encounter someone below the Mountainsea Realm."

"I understand. Don't worry."

Su Yu looked completely indifferent. He grinned and said, "And if I managed to meet some divine or devil beauties out there... hehe."

Consul Liu was left speechless. Amazing. He knew this fellow's reason to leave wouldn't be so simple.

He did not further persuade Cui Lang to stay. As a Cloudbreach, it would be fine for Cui Lang to roam around near the city. It was unlikely for him to encounter an enemy Mountainsea so near their headquarters. Most of the more dangerous enemies would not be able to get through their frontlines."

"When are you leaving?"

"I'm not sure yet." Su Yu said, "It depends. Also, can you keep an eye out for me? If...cough, cough. If Cheng You comes to see me, notify me in advance. I need to get ready to run."

"..."

That reminded Consul Liu of what he heard before. He nodded and softly said, "That young lady isn't a good person to offend. I don't know what to say about you, Junior Brother...Fine. I'll keep an eye out for you. I'll notify you the moment she makes a move. If she catches you, escaping would probably be impossible."

Su Yu said, "Don't worry. Who knows? Maybe she has forgotten about me. She would have looked for me in Great Ming otherwise."

"Don't be too careless." Consul Liu said with sympathy, "I heard about this matter as well. That Young Lady Cheng is now in the Raised Blade Guard. Right after joining, she declared that she would become a Cloudbreach or a Mountainsea before going to catch you personally. She said that she would first beat you up before taking you back home."

"..."

Su Yu couldn't help but pity the real Cui Lang. So that was the case? She was waiting until she had the strength to catch him personally. How pitiful. Soon, the two ended the conversation and Su Yu returned to his residence. As for Consul Liu, he left to gather the information Su Yu requested.

Inside the residence, Su Yu wiped clean all traces of him and his father, including their residue aura. He also took all the food and some other items in the residence into his storage ring. Basically, he was making it look like he was going on a camping trip.

He didn't want to give anyone any reason to suspect him. Since his father was doing quite well here, he was no longer as worried. The Eastpart City was still a considerably safe place. He had laughed. He had cried. The only thing he could do now was to grow. Grow so strong that he no longer needed to put on a disguise during their next meeting.

***

Inside the room, Su Yu was forging his body while going through the information Consul Liu sent him. Recently, there were a lot of small skirmishes on the frontlines. The military encampments of the various prefectures would frequently get into battles.

He had also received several name lists. These lists contained the names of the active geniuses in the Allheaven Battlefield and some other experts.

Su Yu skimmed through the lists. Some of the names even came with pictures or videos. None of these geniuses were weak. Some were in the Skysoar Realm while some were in the Cloudbreach Realm. And these geniuses hailed from numerous races.

Su Yu was most surprised to read about the fact that there was also a mysterious organization in the Allheaven Battlefield.

Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

This was an organization specializing in hunting and killing geniuses.

As for the founder of this organization and the race or power behind this organization, nobody knew. All previous investigations had been fruitless. The only thing they knew was that this organization specialized in hunting down geniuses for the heavenly rewards.

Everyone in the Allheaven Battlefield knew that the bigger the genius one killed, the better the heavenly reward one would receive.

At times, even a Mountainsea killing a genius Cloudbreach would be rewarded, as long as the Cloudbreach was big enough of a genius. One could say that the Allheaven Battlefield was a place for geniuses to rise, but it was also a graveyard of geniuses.

"Heavenly Hunt Pavilion?"

Su Yu had never heard of this before. Even the books he had read had never mentioned this organization. He hurriedly left his room. Before long, he found Consul Liu, who was in the middle of a meal.
