Chapter 679: Real And Fake (1)

Su Yu was unaware of the activation of the Super Sensory Jade. He was finally done extracting heavenly source qi out of his blood essence on the night of the 21st. When he stepped out of the cultivation room, his head felt light.

He had been forced to constantly consume blood essence and keep the body forging arts active for the past few days. Despite his high stamina, he was starting to feel tired.

Right after he left the room, Wu Lan hollered at him, "Su Yu, Principal Niu wants you to see him after you're out."

"Sure."

Principal Niu was looking for him? Why?

Curious, Su Yu left the research center despite his exhaustion.

Heart Paradise Island.

Once again, Su Yu was ferried across the lake by the old turtle. The moment he stepped onto the island, he understood why the principal was looking for him. The three beasts. All three of them showed up the moment he arrived, and they were all staring at him grudgingly.Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

They were very scared. This damn place was too scary. Principal Niu and Prefect Zhu seemed to be busy torturing someone for the past few days. Screams of misery had been constantly coming from the building. This place was akin to hell.

"Seniors..."

Su Yu greeted awkwardly. He had completely forgotten about them. He felt rather apologetic.

"I was at a crucial point in my research. Right after I was done, I came here to welcome you, Seniors."

"It's fine, it's fine."

One-eye had a grumpy voice. His third eyes were shut while his other two eyes were completely black with no pupils in them. In the eyes of a human, his appearance was rather scary.

"Su Yu, both you and your grandteacher promised to release us to the Allheaven Battlefield after helping you. Does that promise still count?"

Su Yu said, "Of course. If you wish to go now, I'll get someone to send you away immediately. I won't go back on my words. But I also know that after killing so many single character faction experts, and seeing things many people don't know about, the Invincible backing those people might decide to capture the three of you."

Great Mountain gloomily said, "You mean if we leave, we'll die."

"Yes." Su Yu spoke frankly, "That's basically it. They might still have some misgivings when killing other humans. But killing demonic beasts that are back on the Allheaven Battlefield is something they can do without any worry. Of course, you don't have to worry if you're confident you can quickly go into hiding at a place nobody can find you."

Bloodmoon coldly said, "So you're sure we have no alternatives except staying with you?"

Su Yu calmly said, "Not at all. I don't even need you anymore. Sure, you're Mountainseas. But to be honest, Mountainseas are no longer that helpful to me nowadays. If you wish to leave, I'll get the prefect to send all three of you back to the Allheaven Battlefield. I won't even hesitate."

At this moment, someone laughed and said, "Su Yu is right. If you want to leave, it won't be an issue. Next month, a group of soldiers from the Heavenly Dao Army are being deployed to the Allheaven Battlefield. You can join them during the journey. Mountainseas are strong...but not really that important."

That was Zhu Tiandao's voice.

How useless.

Meanwhile, the woman, or to be precise, Xu Bin, had an odd look on his face. That? A Mental Tempering Stage Cultivator? Was this a joke? Su Yu was too sensitive. His senses were terrifyingly sharp.

Xu Bin's secret character had been instantly bitten by something. Damn it. What was that? He was using a Mountainsea character! But a small chunk had been bitten off it so easily. He was even more surprised by that soul technique. A single hammer strike was enough to cause his entire sea of willpower to shake. There was also something off about that punch. His shoulder, where the punch had landed, was turning black and slowly rotting away. He was a Mountainsea!

Of course, the fact that he didn't dare to hit back played a role in how easily Su Yu had landed a hit on him as well. But even so, not even a Cloudbreach was supposed to be able to muster such a ferocious response against him, right?

Su Yu glanced at the woman and frowned. Earlier, his tribulation character had throbbed again. Then, the little furball reacted before he could even do anything. A character had approached him. In the eyes of the little furball, that character was here to steal his food. Thus, he bit down on the intruder unhesitatingly.

Since the opponent was a Mountainsea, the little furball was unable to eat the character without being detected. He could only bite off a small chunk of the character. That was how Su Yu had been alerted of what was happening.

Niu Baidao coughed awkwardly and said, "Don't mind us. We were testing his ability. We were also trying to test your ability at the same time. That fellow claimed that those below the Mountainsea Realm won't be able to detect anything even if he steals their hearts from them."

"Stealing my heart?"

Su Yu's eyes turned cold. Xu Bin hurriedly said, "I didn't try that! I only wanted to showcase my ability by taking your storage ring. But before I could touch the ring, my character was bitten."

He felt very gloomy. He had failed. He had actually failed to steal from a Mental Tempering Stage cultivator.

Su Yu frowned. Who was this? Zhu Tiandao's subordinate? That did not seem to be the case.

Zhu Tiandao said, "This is a fellow we caught recently. He's a famous thief. He has the courage to steal anything. By the way, he's a man. Or maybe he's not. I don't know. He is able to put on all sorts of appearances."

Su Yu asked, "Transformation faction?"

"No." Xu Bin explained, "I only have some unique characters. I'm not from the transformation faction. They are capable of completely transforming their bodies, but I can only put on a disguise on my body. What's the point of transforming my body if a disguise will work just as fine? That's too stupid."

Zhu Tiandao said, "Stupid? If others hear this, be careful lest you don't survive for long."

"I wouldn't dare to let anyone hear about this."

Zhu Tiandao said, "You may leave. Go prepare some food for the beasts."

"Yes, Prefect."

Xu Bin didn't want to stay here with them anyway, so he left unhesitatingly. While he was leaving, Zhu Tiandao's voice rang out behind him, "Don't even think of running. We'll capture you again, but your treatment will change completely."

"I wouldn't dare!"

Xu Bin cursed inwardly.
