Chapter 931: If Su Yu Wants You To Die At Three (1)
Flame Armor was dead.
It was such a sudden death. A death that filled everyone with disbelief. He had killed himself trying to become a resident. Everyone knew the danger of death qi erosion.
Flame Armor had died such a mysterious death. All the surrounding experts felt a chill up their spine. What was going on here? Was Flame Armor a fool? No. There was a limit to how stupid a Mountainsea could be. Rather, something went wrong with conversion.
The furious Final Armor roared, "Why? Why did this happen?"
This wasn't the first time a Mountainsea had attempted a conversion. Why would something like this happen? He couldn't accept this. He couldn't believe it. They had lost four Mountainseas so far.
No, there was also a Sunmoon and two geniuses. A large portion of their active forces outside their realm had perished. This would be a massive loss for any race.

At the same time.
Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.
The faceless elder received the latest update as well. He exclaimed in surprise, "Flame Armor died?"
How? Did Su Yu kill him? No. According to the information he had, Flame Armor had died himself. What was happening?
"Contact Su Yu immediately."
The masked man nodded with a stiff expression. Numerous questions filled the screen in front of him.
"Why aren't you answering?"
"So you don't know which character is the most yummy as well?
"The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion is so stupid."
"You know nothing!"
"Reply!"
"Are you dead?"
"Just which character is the most yummy? Don't you know?"
"Aren't you an information peddler?"
"..."
The masked man asked, "Elder, he has been asking me about yummy characters. Is there a point in asking him? I doubt he's even aware of Flame Armor's death."
The faceless elder stiffened slightly upon hearing that. After a while, he solemnly said, "Just try. Also, what is up with Su Yu? He has been sending you so many messages. Doesn't he need to cultivate? Doesn't he need to look for opportunities? Doesn't he need to flee for his life?"
Had he gone crazy? Something felt wrong about Su Yu.
"Fine."
The masked man sent his message over.
***
Inside the room.
The little furbal was resting atop the index copy. When he saw a reply, he was overjoyed. Finally! This thing had finally learned to speak again! He had been very furious earlier. It was so boring staying here with nobody to speak to.
"Flame Armor?"
He did not know who that was. But...since that fellow was dead, that was probably Yummy's enemy. Yummy had probably killed that fellow.
The little furball was not entirely stupid. His eyeballs rolled about as he thought of an answer and sent it over, "I killed him with my curse. I can curse anyone to death. Answer me! Which character is the most yummy of all? If you don't answer, I will kill you with my curse as well."
"..."
"Bullshit!" Final Armor roared furiously and started giving chase, ignoring his task of watching over Su Yu's building. "Killed by Su Yu? What bullshit is that? Damn it! What is the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion trying to do? How dare you snatch the remains of a Mountainsea from my race right in front of me? I'll kill you!"
Su Yu?
Absolute nonsense!
Su Yu was still trapped inside that building. A curse? Bullshit! Even if Su Yu was really the killer, how could they use the corpse of an expert from the mystic armor race as the price? Final Armor could not tolerate this.
A loud rumble rang out as the masked individual pushed Final Armor back yet again before vanishing into thin air. In an ancient city, one could only leave through the city gates. The masked individual was strong enough to reach a gate in the blink of an eye.
Silver Armor and company were not too far away. They had remained near the city.
When Final Armor noticed them, he shouted loudly, "Stop him!"
Silver Armor and company did not know what was happening, but they did not hesitate to act. However, the masked individual was too strong. He broke free of their blockade instantly before vanishing into the distance.
As for Final Armor, he hovered in the sky instead of giving chase. He was furious. But he couldn't leave as he still needed to deal with Su Yu. Even if he gave chase, there was no guarantee that he would be able to kill the masked individual.
Before long, he landed on the ground again. The death qi up in the sky was much thicker than the ground. Even after landing, he was still gnashing his teeth in anger.
Fury.
Boundless fury. That was what he was feeling.
This was intolerable.
Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!
***
Outside the city.
Dao Cheng and the others were totally confused. What happened? Was that someone from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion?
Silver Armor said, "Something isn't right. Lord Final Armor is furious and the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion has appeared out of nowhere. Did they flee with Su Yu?"
Dao Cheng said nothing. Instead, he was focused at the gates. The guards were in the middle of withdrawal.
He frowned, "Yes. Something isn't right. We have only been out of the city for a short time. What happened? Also, these guards seemed to be withdrawing."
He soared into the sky and looked at the Mountainsea guard. He asked, "Commander Tian Men, where are you guys going?"
Standing atop the city wall, Tian Men indifferently replied, "There have been too much bloodshed in the city. Too many death spirits have appeared. The city is no longer safe. We are all withdrawing."
"Too much bloodshed?" Dao Cheng spoke through voice transmission, "Commander Silver Armor, please ask about the situation through your voice transmission talisman."
Silver Armor was already doing that. However, the death qi in the city was too dense. Even the voice transmission talismans were unable to work normally. He shook his head, "Something is interfering with the transmission. Maybe I should enter and take a look."
"No!" Dao Cheng reminded, "Be careful. After all, you're still not a high-stage Mountainsea."
Silver Armor said nothing, but he was feeling quite displeased. His displeasure stemmed from the underestimation of his ability. Also, he felt that these immortals were a tad bit too cowardly. He believed that Dao Cheng was only stopping him so that he would stay here and protect them.
He could see just how furious Final Armor was. He was also confused about what was going on with Flame Armor. Even if Final Armor had to stay, Flame Armor could come out and give them an update, right?
But that did not happen. He really wanted to go in and figure out what was going on.
Dao Cheng seemed to have guessed Silver Armor's thoughts. He solemnly said, "Commander Silver Armor, Su Yu is a very dangerous opponent..."
"He's stuck in a building."
Dangerous? No. This immortal was merely being too cowardly. Silver Armor was furious. The mystic armors were the ones who had been doing all the dying. These immortals would naturally not feel the sting.
When Dao Cheng saw that, he felt even more helpless. After a long pause, he said, "In that case, let's wait a bit more and expel more death qi from our bodies. We can enter the city after that."
He tossed a tiny clump over and said, "I have some heavenly source qi here. Use it to remove the death qi in your body."
Silver Armor said nothing. He accepted the ball of heavenly source qi and started working on the death qi in his body.
