Chapter 2272: Surprise? (3)

At the same time.

Inside Su Yu's world.

Great Zhou King's eyes snapped open as he hurriedly looked around. Then, his jaw dropped as a look of overwhelming shock covered his face. That was followed by a mournful wail.

Shortly after, a few people appeared around him. Wan Tiansheng's grave voice rang out, "What is it?"

Great Zhou King opened his mouth, but hesitated slightly before saying, "My throat wasn't feeling great, so I tried shouting. Ahahahahahhh!"

He continued wailing.

Where was the human Mountain?

Ahhhhhh!

Why was the Human Mountain gone?

What did Su Yu do to it?

"He's going crazy."

Wan Tiansheng was left speechless. Did this guy lose his mind after being targeted by Su Yu?

But it wasn't that bad, right? Why would he go mad like this?

Great Zhou King continued wailing for a bit before shouting, "Where's His Majesty? I need to see him!"

"No idea. Maybe the River of Time? He's probably there to extract some power."

"River of Time?"

Great Zhou King's expression changed further. Holy shit! Was Su Yu suppressing the river with the Human Mountain? What manner of scumbag behavior was that? Wait, did that fellow...manage to guess it as well?

Great Zhou King started wailing again, "Ahhhhh, wow, what wonderful weather we have today."

"Are you crazy?"

Wan Tiansheng didn't know what to say anymore. He looked at Great Zhou King suspiciously before looking around. Just what was going on with Great Zhou King? He wouldn't go crazy for no reason.

Noticing that Wan Tiansheng was looking around, Great Zhou King shouted wailing and laughed instead, "Wan Tiansheng, is His Majesty not around? Hahaha! You're dead!"

Boom!

The silence character shot out as he threw a punch at Wan Tiansheng. He had to find a target to vent his frustration. Wan Tiansheng was the perfect target since Great Zhou King was a Master of Law while Wan Tiansheng wasn't.

He would give this bastard a massive beating.

This damn treacherous snake!

The resulting rumbles attracted even more attention. They all saw Wan Tiansheng receiving a miserable beating from Great Zhou King, and their expressions turned odd. What was wrong with Great Zhou King this time?

Why did he beat Wan Tiansheng up for no reason? Was he not scared that Su Yu would target him further after this?

How curious.

Naturally, Great Zhou King was unconcerned about all that. He was more concerned about venting some of his anger before he died from sheer anger.

***

Meanwhile, Su Yu was too busy to pay any attention to the ongoing battle. He could sense the fluctuations in his world, but he ignored them. Great Zhou King must have noticed the disappearance of the Human Mountain.

Heh, would this be enough to give that old fart the scare of his life? Speaking of, the Human Mountain sure was impressive. In fact, it felt even more impressive than Xing Yu's token. It was doing its job very well here.

After an indeterminate amount of time, the pen dao started shaking violently again. The shaking reached its peak with a rumble before calm returned. And then, two specters emerged from it.

Nan Wujiang muttered doubtfully, "That felt...easy?"

Su Yu answered with a smile.

Easy?

He was a Creator and a tier-two Master of Law. Yet he would have failed without external help. Did the two understand the kind of price he had paid for their success?

Whatever. There was no point in mentioning it. He had to speed things up or Great Zhou King might really lose his mind.

Su Yu said, "You have just finished your transformation. Take some time to get used to your current status. I'll continue with the others. By the way, I believe furballs are the perfect look for soul devourers. You should consider taking on the same appearance. Your current appearance...looks quite creepy. You're like ghosts."

The two were rendered speechless. What was a ghost before this guy? It would be too embarassing for them to turn into furballs. There was no way they were doing that.

***

Su Yu ignored the two and moved on with the others who were also willing to transform into dao spirits. They were free to pick any dao they wished.

They could even pick daos with masters. It was harder for one to become the dao spirit of a dao with a master unless the master was one with an unstable grasp over the dao. In that situation, this could serve as a trap for the future.

Of course, not everyone was here to transform into dao spirits. Some were here to fuse with new daos, and some were here to simply extract some dao powers.

In any case, Su Yu was helping them with anything they wanted. He could help fuse them forcefully with their chosen daos, or he could first drain the chosen daos of their power before squeezing these people into those daos. Since they only cared about the end result, they only needed to focus on succeeding, not the process.

As far as Su Yu was concerned, he was a normal guy being forced by a bunch of lunatics to help them grow strong. What could he do about this? As for the Human Mountain, it was being used as the new Xing Yu's token, and it was working exceptionally well.

***

Done with helping those intending to transform into dao spirits and those intending to fuse with new daos, Su Yu started helping the rest with their yang acupoints.

When he was done with that, he moved straight to the Death Realm to help move Liu Hong's dao. Naturally, the Human Mountain was brought along to suppress the Celestial River of Death.

He had to admit that the Human Mountain was very useful. Since it could suppress even the River of Time, it could naturally suppress the Celestial River of Death as well.

***

By the time Su Yu was done moving Liu Hong's dao, he was already panting heavily in exhaustion.

But the shameless Liu Hong walked up to him right after and said, "Your Majesty, since we're already here, why don't you help expand my dao a little?"

"..."

Screw that motherfucker!

This fucker should just die!

Su Yu ignored the request and went to the River of Time. He needed to extract some power from the physical body dao to help those who had opened their yang acupoints.

The strength of these people was still negligible, including Nan Wujiang and Yun Chen, who had become a part of the pen dao. However, they would be able to grow to incredible heights after a little bit of time.

***

Su Yu spent quite a lot of time helping all these people.

Three days later, an exhausted Su Yu returned to his world with the Human Mountain. Great Zhou King had been going mad, challenging numerous people to single combat during the past three days. It felt as though he had fought more in the past three days than his total combat count prior to that.

When Su Yu was back, he was greeted with the sight of Great Zhou King being pressed on the ground with a bunch of people beating him up.

All around them, a bunch of people with bruises on their faces were cheering.

"Fuck him up!"

"Hit him!"

"His Majesty was only gone for three days, but he attempted to rebel! Mess him up!"

Everyone was roaring furiously. They all looked greatly annoyed. Great Zhou King had been picking fights with them for no reason. And now, he was receiving the retribution for that.

Only when the Human Mountain drop down with a rumble did everyone calm down. Great Zhou King's face was so swollen that his eyes couldn't even be seen anymore. Upon seeing the Human Mountain, he finally relaxed. He looked at Su Yu and opened his mouth to say something.

But before he could speak, someone complained, "Your Majesty, Great Zhou King rebelled right after you left! He nearly killed Principal Wan!"

Su Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled at Great Zhou King, "Great Zhou King, what are you trying to do now? So be it, I'm not unreasonable. I'll spare you this time. Be sure to say something nice about me when you meet Human Emperor."

"..."

Great Zhou King grimaced. What could he say to Human Emperor? He had the urge to give Su Yu a beating, so how was he supposed to say anything nice about Su Yu? But Su Yu merely beamed at him. This old fart must have been given the scare of his life, right? Served him right!

Su Yu did not elaborate and said, "Alright. Go back to your cultivation, everyone. Why are you wasting your time here? If you're really so free, I can call Martial Emperor back and have him spar with all of you."

Instantly, everyone vanished.

Forget it.

Nobody wanted to spar with Martial Emperor.

After flashing Great Zhou King another smile, Su Yu vanished with a flicker. Great Zhou King waited for a bit before stealing a glance at the Human Mountain. Noticing the many bumps and holes on it, he paled.

Holy shit!

Just what did Su Yu do with the mountain? That...was clearly a result of corrosion from the River of Time! Did Su Yu give the Human Mountain a bath in the River of Time or something? This wasn't something a short exposure could do to the mountain.

In fact, some golden radiance could already be seen on the mountain. Noticing that, Great Zhou King rushed over before vanishing into the mountain. Shortly after, the golden glimmer faded as well.

***

Far away.

Su Yu reappeared with a grin.

Was that exciting enough for Old Zhou? It should be. Then again, he didn't do that deliberately. He was only using the Human Mountain because he lacked alternatives.

"After drawing more power to strengthen my world, I can start focusing on the new frontline."

Back then, he planned to go upstream with ten or so Masters of Laws and give Human Emperor a big surprise. But that plan had been scrapped. He was worried that the surprise would be too much for the myriad races to bear, provoking them into doing something crazy.

"The myriad races are probably assuming that their people back in the Myriad Realms have produced some new Masters of Laws. Perhaps there is something I can exploit here."

Su Yu sank into thought. Should he pretend to be the reinforcement of the myriad races? But that wouldn't be easy. Human Emperor and the others were blocking the way. He would meet Human Emperor's camp before the myriad races.

Whatever. He would worry about that later. Before that, he needed to summon Xing Yue and learn more about the situation there. Of course, even that could only be done sparingly if he didn't want the myriad races to notice anything.
