Chapter 748: Emotional Damage (2)

Silence descended. Nobody could find a retort against that argument. There was no doubt that Shan Xiong had not challenged the multiple character faction just to have a spar with them. There was a hidden agenda behind his action. He was simply unfortunate enough to stumble upon someone he couldn\'t defeat this time.

Niu Baidao smiled, "Su Yu, why are you speaking like that? You should be polite. Prefect Shang, this little girl has gone mad because of love. I can understand that. But she has also snatched Su Yu\'s spoils of war. That is taboo. Hand it over first. In the Allheaven Battlefield, snatching the spoils of war of others is a heavy crime. We can forgive her since she\'s young and this is her first time..."

Shang Tianjiao bit her lips anxiously as she looked at the silhouette that was slowly turning more and more corporeal. That was her grandfather. She could only place her hope on him.

After a short silence, Prefect Shang said, "Tianjiao, hand Shan Xiong\'s character to Su Yu first."

"I refuse!" Shang Tianjiao sank into despair. Even her grandfather was telling her to hand it over.

Prefect Shang said, "Hand it over first. You can even hand it to Principal Niu. Am I right, Principal Niu?"

Principal Niu wouldn\'t kill Shan Xiong for no reason. There would be no benefit to doing so. Instead, he would offend Great Zhou and Great Shang. As for handing it to Su Yu...youngsters were more rash so Su Yu might really kill Shan Xiong.

Right at that moment, the golden ball in Shang Tianjiao\'s hand shone. Shan Xiong\'s weakened voice rang out, "Tianjiao, let Su Yu take my character."

"I refuse!" Shang Tianjiao\'s eyes turned red as she said, "You\'re not allowed to die!"

She looked at Su Yu and mournfully said, "Must you kill him? He has never killed your people! Even when his grandpa was killed by your teacher, he had never thought of killing you! Su Yu, are you this cruel?"

Su Yu smiled, "Are you trying to say that I\'m the one at fault here? His grandpa was the one inciting trouble repeatedly. He tried to kill my grandteacher, my teacher, and my martial uncle in Great Xia. Isn\'t it normal for one to be killed after failing to kill others?"

"As for him, I naturally won\'t have anything to say if he kills me after defeating me. But now that he\'s the loser, what can I do about it? Why do some people always believe that they are innocent and they are the only ones deserving of sympathy? Shan Xiong didn\'t need to challenge me in the first place. Did I force him to come all the way here and fight me?"

Shang Tianjiao had nothing to say.

Su Yu said, "If you aren\'t the descendant of an Invincible, you would have died right after snatching my spoils of war. Don\'t think that you can do anything you want just because of your background. Prefect Shang is right here. Let me ask you something. If you refuse to hand over the character, I\'ll kill you. Will Great Shang kill me for that? This matter has nothing to do with Great Shang in the first place. Must you drag Great Shang into the mess?"

"Previously, an elder from Great Shang tried to kill me. I never said anything about that. Is Great Shang insisting on being my enemy?"

This time, Su Yu was looking at the silhouette instead of Shang Tianjiao.

After a short silence, Prefect Shang said, "Hand Shan Xiong to Principal Niu. Su Yu, don\'t kill him just to vent your anger. Killing him won\'t benefit you. What do you want? Great Zhou and Great Shang will try our best to satisfy you."

It was unlikely that Su Yu would kill Shang Tianjiao. But even if it did happen, would he kill Su Yu for that? What a joke. Invincible families were strong, but it wasn\'t like Su Yu had no backer. This was unrelated to them in the first place. Were they supposed to trigger a war between two prefectures because of this?

Even Zhou Polong was still remaining uninvolved. Why should he involve himself? If it wasn\'t for the fact that Shan Xiong himself was quite a valuable individual, he wouldn\'t have bothered showing himself.

He could clearly sense several Sunmoons locked onto his willpower projection. This projection of his wasn\'t too strong. It wouldn\'t last too long here. It was pointless to do anything. He would only offend Great Ming in the process. And he did not intend to let that happen.

He looked at Jiang Tao and asked, "Jiang Tao, do you think this is negotiable?"

Jiang Tao said, "Yes. As long as Su Yu\'s request is reasonable, Great Zhou will fulfill it for Shan Xiong\'s sake."

Su Yu laughed, "You\'re trying to pressure me with morality, making it seem like I\'m the one at fault here. Seniors, have I said anything? Do I need anything from you? Do I lack money or resources? I lack nothing. I only want Shan Xiong\'s character. That is the only thing I lack. Of course, if you can offer a treasure that can push me to the Invincible Realm, I can consider accepting it. Otherwise, there is no need for a trade. I already have everything I need to smoothly reach the Sunmoon Realm."

Speechless. The crowd had nothing to say. He was...actually right. Would Su Yu have trouble reaching the Sunmoon Realm? Unlikely. He did not lack money, resources, and cultivation methods. They didn\'t have anything to offer.

Nobody had expected that the match would end in this manner. It was completely one-sided. Both Great Shang and Great Zhou were placed in a difficult position. How were they supposed to protect Shan Xiong?

***

As the standstill persisted.

At the same time.

Great Ming. Prefect\'s residence.

Zhu Tiandao was drinking tea with a middle-aged man. He smiled and said, "That kid...sure doesn\'t pull his punches. That student of yours is quite good. Just how did he create that character. I only saw one character, but it felt like multiple characters. How did one character gain so many abilities?"

Seated opposite him was Zhou Polong.

After taking a sip of tea, Zhou Polong slowly said, "Shan Xiong can\'t die. Name your price. I only want him to test Su Yu\'s strength. But...the result is too surprising."

Not even he had expected such a one-sided defeat.

"That\'s none of my business." Zhu Tiandao smiled, "I\'m not Su Yu."

Zhou Polong said, "If you\'re not going to take part, I\'ll take Shan Xiong away with force. Can Su Yu stop me?"

"..."

Zhu Tiandao said, "Brother Zhou, that\'s not appropriate. The bet has been set. You have to follow it."

"I don\'t care about my reputation." Zhou Polong said, "If I take Shan Xiong away with force, will you attack Great Zhou with your father because of this?"

"Cough, cough. That won\'t happen. My old man won\'t do something like that." Zhu Tiandao said, "But that\'s inappropriate. If everyone starts doing this, then the Human Realm will turn into a lawless place."

Zhou Polong said, "That\'s why I asked you to name your price."

"I can\'t. How am I supposed to know what Su Yu wants? I\'ll act as the middleman. You can talk to him yourself. I personally think that Su Yu isn\'t a murderous individual. He\'s only trying to scare Shan Xiong. He will be willing to talk. This is a small matter. It\'s not like they are bitter enemies. Su Yu is stronger while that student of yours is nothing. I doubt he cares that much about someone like that."

Zhou Polong stiffened somewhat upon hearing that before smiling, "Zhu Tiandao, you truly never hold back when speaking."

"That\'s the truth." Zhu Tiandao said, "Nowadays, Great Ming is getting very lively. Even Shang Yunchao sent his willpower incarnation over. I\'m getting the urge to beat up a few Invincible descendants. That way, I might be able to lure out even more old friends and catch up with them over tea."

Zhou Polong didn\'t even deign to give a reply. After finishing his cup of tea, he stood up and asked, "Is Su Yu aware of my arrival?"

"I\'m not sure."

"Interesting. Do you really want me to talk with him?"

The two did not even move. They merely flickered before reappearing above Su Yu. Their arrival instantly caught everyone’s attention.

"Greetings, Principal Zhou and Prefect Zhu."

Some of the experts bowed and offered their greetings. They offered their greetings to Zhou Polong first. Zhu Tiandao had a higher status, but Zhou Polong was the stronger individual. This was an expert who was incomparably close to the Invincible Realm.

In fact, he was similar in strength to Xia Longwu. However, it was widely spread that he was slightly weaker. But since the two had never fought each other, it was hard for anyone to say which of the two was stronger.

Zhou Polong did not react to the greetings. Meanwhile, Zhu Tiandao smiled and nodded at the crowd.

He said, "Old Shang, why are you sending only a willpower incarnation here? That\'s quite rude. Don\'t do this in the future. Otherwise, I\'ll send one of my kids to your place and kick up a fuss as well before sending my willpower incarnation over. Would you like that?"

Prefect Shang nodded, "My apologies. This was an emergency. Tianjiao is a spoiled brat. I apologize for her actions. The next time we meet, I\'ll apologize in person."

Zhu Tiandao laughed heartily and said, "It\'s fine. Don\'t worry about it. Would I bicker with a child for something like this? Su Yu, be more magnanimous. No matter what, you\'re an elder. In terms of seniority, you can even call Tianjiao niece. If you\'re feeling shameless, you can even call her your granddaughter. As an honorary elder, you have the same seniority as principals and prefects. Why bicker with a child?"

"..."

Once again, silence descended. At first, they were looking forward to how the two experts would solve this issue. But Zhu Tiandao had only been focusing on putting those from Great Shang in their place.

Zhou Polong said nothing. With a wave of his hand, the golden ball flew out of Shang Tianjiao\'s hand into his hand. The golden ball turned red as it absorbed the life force provided to it. After a while, a pale Shan Xiong reappeared before everyone there.

His physical cultivation had dropped all the way to the Great Strength Realm. The only silver lining was the fact that he did not need to undergo the Source Opening process all over again.

Of course, that might not be the case if one delayed the rebuilding of one\'s destroyed body as the Source Opening acupoints might be blocked again by then.

With his head lowered, Shan Xiong said, "Teacher, I have embarassed you."

"Don\'t worry about it." Zhou Polong said, "Su Yu is extremely talented. And he\'s quite strong as well. In fact, he\'s stronger than both me and Xia Longwu when we were his age. In fact, we might not even survive a fight with him as Skysoars."

That caused a great uproar among the crowd. Zhou Polong! He had actually said that even he and Xia Longwu would not be able to survive an encounter with Su Yu were they at the same cultivation level. What did that mean? Was Su Yu even more talented than the two of them?
