Chapter 956: Project Counter Hunt (3)

Su Yu scratched his head in frustration. Liu Wenyan felt quite helpless to see that. The kid had truly never expected anyone to help him. This was really sorrowful. A genius like this might really not receive any help. In fact, that was why Liu Wenyan himself had traveled all the way out here.

He was proud of Su Yu's ability to escape without any help. The kid was even planning to get all the people targeting him killed. But he also grieved for Su Yu. If the kid wasn't a part of the multiple character faction, the human Invincibles would most definitely protect him due to the sheer amount of talent he was showing.

Would anyone come? Liu Wenyan was unsure.

He said, "Investigate the place properly before starting your plan. If there are really humans here to help you, it won't be good to get them killed."

"True."

Su Yu nodded. Since even Qin Fang was here, others might come as well. Those people might not even be here for him. Rather, they would come for Qin Fang. He couldn't think of anyone who would come for him apart from Hong Tan. Whatever. He would wait and see.

He might not need the help anymore, but it still wouldn't do to get them killed. Nobody would come, right? Su Yu felt like any helper would only become a burden. He preferred moving with only his Teacher Liu. It was much easier for just the two of them to flee.

But if some humans had really arrived...he could actually have them keep watch outside the city. Some of the more sensitive Sunmoons might notice the moment the gates start shutting and try to escape. At that time, the human experts waiting outside the city could stop the Sunmoons from escaping.

That would help greatly. He could even get Liu Wenyan to stay outside and get an expert capable of killing Sunmoon death spirits to enter instead. That way, Liu Wenyan wouldn't have to risk his own life for this plan.

But if he went with that, Liu Wenyan would be missing out on the heavenly rewards for killing Sunmoons. Whatever. Su Yu decided to find out more before finalizing his plan.

***

At the same time.

The Shadow Guard had taken a detour around the Plain of Desires and were arriving near the Heavendoom City, completely unaware that their assistance was no longer needed.

Su Yu did not need any saving from them. Instead, he would find them burdensome. He had to worry about getting them killed alongside the other Sunmoons. At this time, Su Yu was busy taking in the second and third characters from Liu Wenyan.

The second character was the massacre character, an extremely powerful offensive character.

Massacre. The act of slaughter.

Su Yu himself had a fourth-tier kill character. Combined, he would have two characters embodying the act of slaughter.

The third character was a rather useless character. It was the rain character. Capable of summoning rain, it was actually quite powerful. But it was not a peak Sunmoon character. Thus, it had been chosen to serve as the energy supply.

As for Su Yu, the Mountainsea leading his group was a demonic beast from the Sea of Stars. Since the Mountainsea was walking around in a humanoid form, Su Yu couldn't tell the race of this expert. He could find out if he actually scanned the Mountainsea, but that was an offensive action that might bring him problems. Thus, he refrained from doing so.

The Mountainsea spoke to the group through voice transmission, "Stick together, everyone. Don't move around carelessly lest you offend an expert accidentally. This place is filled with experts, including Sunmoons. The humans do not get along well with the divines and devils. A fight might break out between them anytime. These major races might even start killing indiscriminately. Anything can happen. When something bad happens, don't forget to run. At that time, you can only rely on yourself."

"Some of us are here to look for opportunities. Some are here to catch the eyes of an expert. But try to manage your expectations. The possibility of either of that happening is extremely low."

Yes. That was one of the reasons for many of these people to be here. If they performed well, they might catch the eyes of the major races and be taken in as disciples. This had happened before. Even a small benefit given by an expert of the major races would be massive for these minor races.

Su Yu started scanning the area with his Perception Jade. The Sunmoons were his priorities. He was also trying to figure out if any human experts had arrived. Perhaps he would need to notify them in advance so they wouldn't seek death and enter the city after the gates reopened.

But without even the Perception Jade, he could see that there was at least one human expert here.

A certain fellow was standing ominously near one of the gates without bothering to hide himself.

Zheng Ping.

Su Yu was both surprised and unsurprised. Zheng Ping wasn't even that far away before, so it wasn't surprising for him to be back here again.

As an expert from Great Xia, courage was something he didn't lack. Great Xia wouldn't have been able to build such a massive reputation through slaughter without courage.

"Zheng Ping is here."

This might not be a bad thing, after all. At the very least, Zheng Ping was still somewhat reliable compared to someone completely unknown. Su Yu had to find a chance to establish communication with Zheng Ping.

There was no need for a mere early Sunmoon like that to enter the city and throw his life away. He should just leave after picking Qin Fang up. It was unlikely that anyone would try to prevent Qin Fang from leaving. After all, nobody wanted to attract Great Qin King's attention. That might spoil their plan to deal with Su Yu.

Nobody knew what Su Yu was thinking. One would think that he was already an Invincible from how he was thinking about an early Sunmoon. Yes. Su Yu wasn't strong. But the ancient city was basically a coffin.

As far as Su Yu was concerned, this was a great place. A great place to die, to be precise. Those death spirits were the blade he was going to wield against these experts. Not only was this blade convenient to use, he didn't even need to worry about damaging it.

This was such a great place. It would be rude for him to let these Sunmoons enter without getting them all killed, right? He was only a puny Cloudbreach. He had to properly thank these Sunmoons for showering him with so much attention.

After scanning the area one kilometer around him, he discovered twelve Sunmoons. Including Zheng Ping, there were thirteen of them. What a grand reception for puny Cloudbreach like him.

Su Yu sneered. Good. Time for all of them to embrace death.
