Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 501: Subdue (2)

"You guys can go. I\'ll stay here a bit longer..."

Wu Lan decided to ignore Su Yu, someone who clearly lacked the spirit of perseverance. It was perfectly normal for researchers to work overnight! What did this fellow know?

"..."

Su Yu didn\'t know what to say. He was even starting to worry. If this lass ended up working herself to death, would her grandaunt blame him?

Even if her grandaunt spared him, would her elder sister spare him? Even if those two spared him...he had heard about another expert in the Wu Family. Wu Yuehua\'s mother was a Sunmoon. A Sunmoon! Would she kill him? He was getting more and more worried.

By the way, what would be her form of address for the mother of her grandaunt? Suddenly, a random thought appeared in Su Yu\'s mind. Wu Yuehua was the younger sister of Wu Lan\'s grandfather. Thus, Wu Yuehua\'s father was Wu Lan\'s great grandfather, right? Ohhh, in that case, the Sunmoon was Wu Lan\'s great grandmother!

Suddenly, Su Yu asked, "Wu Lan, does your great grandmother love you?"

"Huh?"

Wu Lan blanked out slightly. She looked at Su Yu and snorted, "Of course! Before she entered seclusion, she doted on me the most! She doted on me more than my elder sister!"

"..."

In that case, she better not work herself to death here. If nobody loved her, it would probably be fine. But since she had a Sunmoon who doted on her, he was afraid of trouble in case she died.

Su Yu continued persuading Wu Lan to take a rest. He couldn\'t help but lament that it sure was nice to have a strong background.

Hu Qiusheng had a Sunmoon grandfather.

Wu Lan had a Sunmoon great grandmother.

Ji Xiaomeng had a Sunmoon father.

Wan Mingze had a Sunmoon grandfather.

Xia Huyou had a peak Sunmoon father, a Sunmoon second granduncle, and an Invincible great grandfather.

Zhao Shiji had a Sunmoon grandfather.

There really were quite a lot of experts in Great Xia.

...

After making his arrangements, Su Yu returned to the Wentan Research Center. He needed to leave early the next day, so he had to make some preparations. He was only going to the suburbs and things would probably be safe, but there was no guarantee that nothing bad would happen.

Prison zone.

Once again, Su Yu arrived. He ignored all the prisoners and looked at the shadow before saying, "Both you and the water guy are good at concealment. I am going to take a trip outside the academy and require a bodyguard. Which of you is interested in this task?"

The water elemental was a seventh-stage Cloudbreach. The shadow was a third-stage Cloudbreach.

The white civet hurriedly said, "Lord Su, I might only be a Skysoar, but I am very good at concealment and disguise. I am also very fast."

The fire crow also hurriedly said, "Lord, I am small. Even without concealment, most people will overlook me. I won\'t be able to do much against warriors, but if it\'s a cultural researcher, I\'ll be able to harm that person with my lifebound fire even if it\'s a Mountainsea."

The two of them were obviously getting anxious. The mountaindrill bull and suanni were even more anxious.

What was this?

Why did Su Yu only need someone good at concealment? What about them, who were only good at direct confrontations?

The mountaindrill bull asked, "Lord, do you need a means of transportation for this trip? I am fast and my steps are steady!"

Su Yu lazily said, "Not for now. Also, I will be going out with the son of Prefect Xia. Xia Longwu\'s son. Remember this. Don\'t try anything stupid. Or maybe you can consider capturing him and using him as a hostage for free passage out of the Human Realm."

They all shivered. Don\'t joke around!

Capturing Xia Longwu\'s son in Great Xia? They might as well dig a hole and bury themselves alive. That might be a less miserable death than the alternative. They were definitely not interested in courting death.

Su Yu did not waste any time and called Xia Huyou with his communicator again.

Xia Huyou\'s impatient voice rang out, "What is it this time?"

"Take a trip to the Myriad Race Pit with me tomorrow. You can stay outside if you want. I only need your presence as a show of force to a few beasts. I have a few fellows locked here. They are supposed to escort me tomorrow, but I\'m afraid that they will turn on me."

"Mountainsea beasts? I won\'t be able to do that. I\'ll get someone else to follow you instead..."

"No. The strongest among them is only a Cloudbreach."

"What?" Xia Huyou said, "If they are only Cloudbreach beasts, just slaughter them. What\'s the point of keeping them around? Are these first divines or original devils? Cloudbreach beasts are useless. Su Yu, why are your standards so low? Unless it\'s a young cub, you are better off slaughtering them and selling their bodies. You won\'t be able to get much value out of them."

Xia Huyou complained, "Are you telling me to be your bodyguard against some Cloudbreach beasts? You\'re looking down on me too much. In the myriad races or even the divines and the devils, someone like me can be considered a prince. You\'re bothering me in the middle of the night for something like this?"

"Cut the crap!" Su Yu was blunt, "I can give you a different version of what I gave you previously if I manage to produce something with my research."

"..."

Xia Huyou sank into silence. Shortly after, he said with a greasy tone, "Big Brother Su, remember to call me tomorrow! If those puny beasts dare to create trouble, I\'ll have the Martial Dragon Guards raid their realms and hunt their races to extinction!"

All the beasts sank into silence.

Xia Longwu\'s son.

Someone with an Invincible great grandfather and a soon-to-be Invincible father.

Xia Huyou was right. Someone with his identity could be regarded as a prince regardless of which race he was in.

And if the Martial Dragon Guards were really deployed, they might not be able to truly exterminate the races of these beasts since they were all from rather powerful races, but their races would definitely suffer considerably.

Of course, it was very likely that Xia Huyou was bluffing when he spoke about hunting them to extinction. But you never knew since Great Xia was filled with lunatics.

"Sure. See you. Bye..."

"Wait, Big Brother Su, do you really have a different version of that cultivation method?"

"We\'ll talk again in the future."

Su Yu then ended the call. If he was really exposing his second cultural art, then Xia Huyou would definitely be the first person in his mind. This was Great Xia. If he didn\'t have a good relationship with the Xia Family, life would be hard.

He would not consider this if Xia Huyou was his enemy. But Xia Huyou was a friend.

Thus, giving Xia Huyou a copy of the second cultural art would give him another protective layer within Great Xia.

He looked at the beasts and indifferently asked, "Shadow and water guy. Which of you is interested?"

The shadow sighed.

"Lord Su, I am willing to become your dao protector."

He had not expected that Su Yu would be able to form a relationship with the prince of the Xia Family so fast. From the tone of the conversation, the two even seemed rather close. As for the possibility of this being an act...there was no need for that. It was only a matter of time before they could verify if the other person was really Xia Longwu\'s son.

Within the first cage, the water elemental revealed himself and softly said, "I am willing to serve you, Lord."

At this point, this was their only option. Either they die or they submit.

Su Yu rubbed his chin and said, "I\'m still worried. Your lives are not worth anything, but my life is very valuable. What if you decide to sacrifice yourself and take me out? Sure, you would be dead as well, but that would be too much of a loss for me."

With a smile, Su Yu said, "Hand over your main Divine Characters and put them under my control for now. You might be weaker without them, but that is a form of guarantee for me."

The water elemental said, "If this is what you want, I have no issue. But the beast taming faction probably has a method to restrict us. There is no need for you to weaken us with such a method, Lord."

Su Yu smiled, "I don\'t want anyone to know about you for now. I\'ll ask around and see if I can find an alternative later. But for now, hand over your characters."

Both the water elemental and shadow sighed. As prisoners, they had no other options.

If their main Divine Characters were destroyed, their sea of willpower would receive a backlash and their strength would drop greatly. This was the weakness of all cultural researchers.

At this time, the mountaindrill bull said, "They have third-tier characters. Lord...will you be able to suppress those characters? Why don\'t you give those characters to me for safekeeping. You can take me on the trip as well. I promise I won\'t turn on you."

When the fire crow heard that, he anxiously said, "Lord, I can watch over the characters for you. With my lifebound fire, they won\'t dare to rebel unless they are feeling suicidal."

The water elemental and shadow were infuriated. It was clear that at this point, unity was no longer possible among them. Since even the two strongest among them had surrendered, the rest of them needed to start thinking for themselves as well.

It was time to submit.

It was either that or death.

Bai Feng was gone. The research center no longer required them. And they were too weak for Hong Tan. They were out of options. If they waited until Su Yu outgrew his need for them, would there be a next person for them to rely on?

Perhaps Su Yu would be the last new student they could see before meeting their end. Su Yu would be their final caretaker. They were all very clear about this.

Su Yu rubbed his chin and said, "Fire crow, you\'re right. How about this? Hand me your main Divine Character. I\'ll let you suppress their characters but you will remain in your cage. The moment I do something to your character, you will know that they have turned on me. At that time, just destroy their characters."

"..."

The beasts were stunned.

The fire crow was filled with grief.

He wanted to leave!

He didn\'t want to stay here!

He was so obedient and honest! Why wasn\'t he given a chance to leave? This was driving him crazy.

Despite the grief in his heart, the fire crow said, "Your wisdom knows no bounds, Lord. The moment you touch my character, I will burn both their characters."

The shadow said, "Lord, what if you accidentally touch his character? Would the two of us die for no reason?"

This felt too dangerous.
