Chapter 2182: Chaotic Battle, Chaotic Slaughter (1)
"Su Yu!"
The moment Su Yu ran off with his people, someone roared in fury. Su Yu again! The two Venerables weren't even dead! Why was he running off with them?
At that, Su Yu stopped and looked at Venerable Phoenix in confusion. "What is it?"
That further infuriated Venerable Phoenix.
What was it?
Just as she was about to rage further, Su Yu took Venerable Dragon's sea of willpower out. Everyone believed that he was about to kill the dragon, but he suddenly gathered the chaos power in the air before reconstructing a body for the dragon. In the blink of an eye, a confused Venerable Dragon reappeared.
Su Yu said, "I lack physical body power so I can only use some chaos power for this. A recovery is better than no recovery. You nearly died, you fool. Consider the Coiled Dragon Mountain your payment for this. The debt between us is cleared. I don't like owing debts."
Everyone watched blankly as Su Yu rebuilt Venerable Dragon's body. The new body was weaker than before, but this was still much faster than what the dragon could do through his own efforts. In the blink of an eye, his body had recovered by about sixty percent.
Then, Su Yu kicked the dragon back to the battlefield and said, "Why is everyone staring at me? Continue fighting!"
"..."
But the silence continued.
Venerable Dragon had a complicated look in his eyes. He said nothing and flew toward Venerable Phoenix. She said nothing and flew toward him as well. The two had been engaging in dual cultivation for quite some time. They were essentially dao companions.
As the two joined up, they started looking at Tiangu and the others warily. At the same time, they glared at the devils furiously. Naturally, their fury was not reserved to only the devils. Deep. When they looked at Tiangu, hate gleamed deep inside their eyes as well.
Noticing that, Tiangu's eyes flickered.
He looked at Su Yu.
Su Yu!
An attempt to sow discord?
Or something else?
Tiangu had opted to focus fire to remove a powerful opponent from the field. If Venerable Dragon were to die because of that, so be it. But Venerable Dragon had survived. Meanwhile, Su Yu was busy extracting the dao power of the axe-wielder. In the blink of an eye, he was done. Then, he punched at the ball of light before him.
Boom!
The entire Chaos Mountain shook. There were no energy fluctuations, but the world still shook from the death of a Venerable.
Killed!
Su Yu had no hesitation. This way, he did not need to worry about his enemies recovering and coming after him again. Venerable Dragon watched as Su Yu killed the axe-wielder. He felt some lingering fear when he recalled that moments ago, he was in Su Yu's hands as well.
He solemnly said, "Thank you, Human Lord. Consider the Coiled Dragon Mountain my gift to you. The debt between us is cleared."
Was that enough to clear the debt? After all, his life had been saved. It should be sufficient. Su Yu's choice to not kill the dragon shocked countless people. Everyone had thought that he would run off after capturing the two, but no. He had merely moved further away before healing and releasing the dragon.
To the side, Giant Axe and the others were utterly confused. Were they not running anymore? They had thought that they would be making their exit here. But they were clearly mistaken.
***
Su Yu was naturally not planning to run.
The battle had just started. Why should he run now? When he first caught the two seas of willpower, the thought of fleeing did cross his mind. After all, two Venerables were quite a massive profit. But after some thought, he changed his mind.
The battle had just started. A few Venerables had already died. It was clear that even more would die today. He couldn't give up on a potentially bigger profit for a small profit. This would also be a great opportunity for him to release Venerable Dragon and sow some discord among the myriad races.
Tiangu had decided to sacrifice Venerable Dragon, but Venerable Dragon had survived. Venerable Phoenix was his dao companion. In this manner, Tiangu had gained the enmity of two Venerables. At present, the immortals were powerful enough that they would silence their anger. But this would not be the end of this matter.
How could Su Yu allow the myriad races to truly achieve unity? He wouldn't allow that to happen. Previously, Su Yu hoped to see more unity among the myriad races. But now, he wanted to see the opposite. After all, things had changed. That little incident had also changed the situation in the battleground.
With Venerable Dragon alive and the axe-wielder dead, Sacred Source, Venerable Dragon, Venerable Phoenix, and Venerable Nether on top of Tiangu, a heavenly king, were faced with Venerable Scrape, Celestial Devil, and the white-haired old man.
Corona had broken free of his seal and was in a standoff with Yue Zhan. However, he wasn't a match for Yue Zhan. As for the Consort Emeritus, she was faced with a powerful devil. The balance of the battlefield had shifted.
Control King's lineage might have lost two Venerables, but Venerable Moon was as good as a cripple, while Venerable Dragon had been greatly weakened. The two devil Venerables had also defected.
With this, Su Yu's party, with six Venerables, became a very important force in this battlefield.
This was not the time for Tiangu to worry about anything else. He looked at the two devils before looking at the female devil. "Purple Cloud Marquis, what do you hope to get from this?"
"What do I hope to get from this?" The powerful female devil said, "Nothing. The holy race and devil race are one. What would I want from this?"
Her eyes turned frosty as he looked at the chaos dragon and eight-winged tiger. "Are the two of you betraying the chaos?"
"Betrayal?" The tiger's eyes spun around as he disengaged the twins before saying, "This is not a betrayal. We're only having some fun here. By the way, what is up with the myriad races?"
The devils had suddenly joined hands with Control King's lineage. Or to be precise, they had always been one, according to Purple Cloud Marquis.
Even the Daofuses of the devils had odd expressions as they all pulled back from the battlefield. Not long ago, they were still fighting Control King's lineage to the death. How were they suddenly family?
Tiangu might have guessed this, but he still felt very helpless when the defection truly happened. The devils had truly joined Control King. Why? Because of Blazing Flame Devil Pseudo Emperor? It was said that the current Control King's lineage descended from Control King and Blazing Flame Devil Pseudo Emperor.
Yue Zhan looked at Purple Cloud Marquis and said, "You were late. Shi Jian and Dou He are both dead."
She only acted after they lost two Venerables.
As for the myriad races, Venerable Moon was gravely injured. But his sea of willpower survived. Venerable Moon had even regained about sixty percent of his physical strength. Of course, that was still much weaker than before. His current combat strength would probably be similar to that of a heavenly king.
However, dead was dead. Two of their Venerables had died.
Purple Cloud Marquis had a sharp look in her eyes as she said, "I did not expect things to change so rapidly."
She looked at Su Yu before looking at the Consort Emeritus before her. "What's the point, Consort Emeritus. You might not be able to kill me. How long can you survive after this fight? Are you going to place the hope of the divine race on Corona?"
The immortals had four Venerables, but the divines only had three, including the Consort Emeritus. Things had grown too chaotic. Nobody knew for sure who was their friend and who was their enemy anymore.
The Consort Emeritus' aura continued stirring as she said indifferently, "I've lived long enough. I'm only curious about one thing. When did you start colluding with them? It should be quite recent, right?"
Purple Cloud Marquis smiled and said, "Yes. Quite recent."
"Why? Bloodline?"
Far away, Su Yu smiled and said, "What bloodline? Nonsense. I believe a message must have arrived from behind the Hell Gate. Perhaps that Blazing Flame Divine Pseudo Emperor is right behind the gate. The devils must have received an instruction from behind the gate."
At that, Purple Cloud Marquis looked at Su Yu and smiled, "Are you the famous Su Yu of the human race? You are smart indeed. That's right. However--"
"Die!"
Boom!
Su Yu attacked out of nowhere with his hammer, stunning everyone.
Holy shit!
Was he starting the battle?
Su Yu said, "This woman looks annoying. Thunderstorm, let's join hands and kill her. Consort Emeritus, help Corona against that Ancestor guy."
Those on Su Yu's side obeyed him unconditionally. His will was the law. When he wanted to fight, they would fight.
Rumble!
Su Yu slammed his hammer down repeatedly like a madman. To the side, Fat Ball stomped his shoe down repeatedly, March swung his bamboo stick repeatedly, and Giant Axe cleaved forth with his axe repeatedly. At the same time, Heavenly Fate Marquis was keeping their target locked while Thunderstorm was raining lightning from the sky.
Under Consort Emeritus' stupefied gaze, explosion after explosion erupted. Purple Violent Marquis, who was still looking incomparably mighty earlier, was instantly bloodied by the beating. Her power of lightning wasn't able to do much as it was devoured by Fat Ball the moment it was released.
In truth, Su Yu was attacking because of her lightning power. He had taken a liking to her lightning power. This was a peak Venerable. Such a being was quite impressive. If he could kill her and fuse her lightning power into his world, he could probably produce another powerful fake Venerable. After all, there were some lightning cultivators among his subordinates.
In any case, he had to start attacking this woman, as it seemed like the myriad races were starting to consider a retreat. He couldn't allow that. He was not done here. The fun would end with the withdrawal of the myriad races. He wouldn't race before seven or eight Venerables were dead.
Su Yu roared, "Everyone, attack with your full strength. Stop hiding your strength. Playtime is over. Kill her and show everyone our might."
"Roar!"
"Awooo!"
"Come on!"
Instantly, the six Venerables seemed to grow by about thirty percent in strength. Thunderstorm maintained the same combat strength, but Su Yu's voice suddenly rang out in his ears, "Either you petrify her and counteract her or I'll kill you."
"..."
Thunderstorm's expression changed as the intensity of his lightning power suddenly increased. Apart from Su Yu, all the Venerables on his side were fighting with their full strength.
The powerhouses of Control King's lineage rushed over to help, but they were too late. At the same time, the Consort Emeritus rushed away to help Corona against Yue Zhan.
Yue Zhan roared in fury.
The expressions of Venerable Scrape and Celestial Devil changed as both charged toward Su Yu. Noticing that, Su Yu roared, "Tiangu, stop them or I'll turn on you instead."
Tiangu's expression changed. Su Yu was crazy enough to do just that.
"Kill!"
And thus, Tiangu rushed over with his people to stop the two devils.
