Chapter 1012: Finding Topsoil Spirit (3)

At the same time, inside the mayor's residence.

A stone statue in the inner hall awakened from slumber.

The moment that happened, a miniature man walked over with a helpless and irritated expression.

"Passing by. Not a death spirit. Special cultivation method."

The stone statue stared at the miniature man silently for a long while before speaking, "Is this Troublemaker Su Yu from Heavendoom?"

"You know him, Senior?"

"I can hear everything in the holy city. Not long ago, some people spoke of that incident in the city."

The stone statue expressionlessly warned, "Heavendoom has a good temper, but my temper isn't that good. Don't stir up trouble or I'll punish him."

The miniature man thought for a bit and said, "The Pseudo Emperor of the soul devourers told him to do that. The Pseudo Emperor wanted to lure some delicious cultural researchers out. He also wanted to temper his junior with some hardships."

Hearing that, the stone statue's gaze penetrated Su Yu's sea of willpower and landed on the little furball who was lazily sprawled atop the Soul Expanding Hammer. This human was acting on the orders of the soul devourer Pseudo Emperor?

And the statue was able to sense a faint trace of Heavendoom's power on the little furball. Clearly, Heavendoom had once acted to protect this little fellow. So they were doing this to lure some delicious food for the Pseudo Emperor?

After a short silence, the stone statue asked, "Who are you? I've never seen you before."

"It's normal for you to not know everyone, Senior..."

"Your willpower clone is on the verge of dissipating away. You won't be able to stop me if I really want to do something."

The miniature man nodded, "Yes. I won't be able to stop you even at my peak. But I'm acting on orders of Great Qin King, Great Xia King, Great Ming King, and Great Zhou King to protect this human. He is the disciple of Silk Destroying King and Heavenly Forge King."

After mentioning a long list of Invincibles, the miniature man paused slightly and added, "He has also inherited the teachings of Great Song King, Great Han King, and many other human kings..."

The stone statue slowly scanned Su Yu. And indeed, he was able to sense faint traces of powers originating from numerous Eternals. And among them, a certain saber qi was exceptionally powerful.

"His es from Xia Longwu?"

"Yes."

The stone statue sank into silence. That saber came from Xia Longwu, not Xia Wushen. He had met both those people before, so he could differentiate their sabers. This was a very troublesome human. A human with the inheritances of numerous Invincibles.

The statue warned again, "Don't create trouble for no reason."

After saying that, the statue shut his eyes again.

Forget it.

He couldn't be bothered to say anything else.

Topsoil Spirit was feeling greatly jittery.

Annoying!

Furthermore, he had not been able to find the so-called opportunity in this building. Was he supposed to leave? But that might be even more dangerous as both Su Yu and Shi Zun were looking for him.

"Is the danger coming from Su Yu?"

Topsoil Spirit was in denial. That shouldn't be the case, right? That fellow wouldn't be able to find him so quickly, right? Nobody knew he was in an ancient city.

Still restless, Topsoil Spirit almost left the building several times. But each time, he dispelled that thought. No. He should keep waiting. At that moment, he heard some noises outside his building. He hurriedly ceased all movement.

Outside, Su Yu was softly clawing on the door. There was no response. But he was sure this building wasn't empty. He had completed his search over six more buildings earlier. This was the seventh building. Of the six buildings, he had verified that Topsoil Spirit wasn't in four of them. Like this building, he had not received any response from the other two.

He had four more buildings in the ring to go through. Thus, Topsoil Spirit was most likely hiding within one of the seven uncleared buildings. Su Yu continued clawing at the door.

Inside the building, Topsoil Spirit was greatly alarmed. What was happening? Was someone outside? Or was something outside? He was very nervous. He still remembered how he had nearly died in an ancient city not long ago.

After a while, the noise stopped. He exhaled in relief, but he still didn't dare to open the door.

But after about half an hour, the same noise returned.

Su Yu had returned. Of the seven remaining buildings, the inhabitants inside three of them had opened their doors out of curiosity after he left. Su Yu had stayed nowhere near them. Instead, he had observed them through his Perception Jade.

The moment the doors were opened, he was able to perform a scan on them. None of the three was Topsoil Spirit. That left him with only four buildings.

He only needed to keep harassing them. Eventually, the people inside would open their doors to check. Even if they didn't do it immediately, they would wait until they feel safe before doing so. That helped Su Yu narrow his search further.

Inside the building, Topsoil Spirit was growing irritated. What was this? Why was this happening again?

"Who is this?"

Finally, Topsoil Spirit spoke up.

Was some bastard playing a prank on him? He was the future leader of the five elemental race. He was not so easily scared! Was the prankster tired of living? A small golden sword appeared in his hand while his expression turned ferocious.

Outside, Su Yu stopped.

His mouth curved into a smile. A death spirit was smiling.

He had finally found Topsoil Spirit. That fellow was really hiding here. The voice was slightly different from what he remembered, but he could still recognize it.

Su Yu exhaled in relief. This fellow must have been hiding here all this while. Thus, his scam had yet to be exposed. In fact, this fellow was probably still unaware of the fact that he had stolen Tianduo's identity.

"Found you, Topsoil Spirit..."

Su Yu grinned. It was time for him to deal with the final loophole.
