The mastermind behind the scenes starting with the calamity of all races

Qin Guang didn't answer. He was exhausted and didn't want to use his brain at all. But every time he chatted with Yun Jie and Zhou Tianqi, he had to use his brain, otherwise he had no idea what they were thinking.

At this moment, Zhu the landlord suddenly appeared: "Old Qin, Old Yun, I have to go to Xinghong Ancient City, something has happened there."

Qin Guang glanced at Yun Jie and said to Landlord Zhu, "Let's go together, we want to go too."

Landlord Zhu asked in confusion, "Hmm? You're going too?"

Yun Jie stepped forward: "Brother, you stay here and keep things under control. Old Zhu and I will make the trip."

Then Yun Jie turned to Xia Wushen, who was walking towards them, and said, "Old Xia, you stay here and guard. Old Zhu and I are enough. If we really can't save them, there's no use in you going. You should stay here to guard against the myriad races. Who knows, they might be desperate and start a war."

Qin Guang looked at Yun Jie and said seriously, "This time you'd better bring Su Yu back. That kid is too scary... If he keeps causing trouble, we can't handle it!"

Yun Jie nodded: "I may not be able to save him this time. All I can say is that I will do my best."

It's impossible to catch him. Su Yu should have already become a half-undead by now, so we can't delay any longer.

Qin Guang sensed Yun Jie's perfunctory attitude and thought, "Fine, I don't care anymore. Let it be. I'm tired!"

"Let's go, Lao Zhu."

Yun Jie greeted Zhu the Landlord, and then the two of them turned into two streaks of light and disappeared into the horizon.

Watching their disappearing figures, Qin Guang said to Xia Wushen, "Old Xia, your Great Xia Prefecture has so many talented people, and the key is that they are all more troublesome than the last, from Ye Batian to Xia Longwu, and now Su Yu..."

Xia Wushen said speechlessly, "Old Qin, I can accept Ye Batian and Xia Longwu, but you can't push Su Yu onto my Great Xia Prefecture. Although he was born in Great Xia, he is actually Old Yun's grandson, and now he has joined the Great Xuan Prefecture, right? The trouble he caused is the Great Xuan Prefecture's business, and you can't blame it on me."

Xia Wushen felt that Su Yu's situation was not his fault; Yun Jie should be responsible, and he would not take the blame.

At this moment, Zhou Tianqi walked over, his expression slightly changing. He asked, "Old Xia, you just said...who is Su Yu's grandson? Yun Jie?"

"Uh... this..."

Xia Wushen glanced at Qin Guang, then at Zhou Tianqi. Oh no, he seemed to have let something slip.

An eerie atmosphere suddenly filled the surroundings.

next second.

Xia Wushen quickly composed himself and said without changing his expression, "What do you mean, whose grandson? Old Zhou, you must have misheard me. I didn't say that. What I said is that the trouble Su Yu has caused right now should be taken by the Great Xuan Mansion, and has nothing to do with my Great Xia Mansion."

Zhou Tianqi looked at him expressionlessly. "Keep making things up. I heard everything. It's too late for you to try and argue now."

"Old Qin, you tell me, did I hear that wrong?"

Seeing that Xia Wushen wouldn't budge, Zhou Tianqi turned his gaze to Qin Guang.

Qin Guang remained silent. He disliked lying, but he had to keep Yun Jie's secret, so he could only stay silent.

However, silence is sometimes an answer.

Zhou Tianqi glanced at the two of them, and now he understood. He calmly said, "It seems you two knew all along, and then you both followed Yun Jie's lead and let Su Yu run wild. That's why Su Yu is in this mess now. It looks like a major battle is about to break out today..."

Xia Wushen waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not that bad. The myriad races don't start wars so easily. At most, there will be local wars, which will still be within a controllable range."

Zhou Tianqi said quietly, "Even if this time it's within a controllable range, what about next time, and the time after that? Can you still guarantee that?"

Xia Wushen was speechless. Since Su Yu arrived at the Battlefield of All Heavens, he had made more and more noise. In less than two months, he had already provoked the invincible gods and demons. Who knew if he would provoke a half-emperor next time? He couldn't guarantee it.

No one can guarantee that.

Qin Guang, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up: "Alright, Lao Zhou, didn't I just tell Yun Jie to bring Su Yu back?"

Zhou Tianqi was speechless. Didn't you see his perfunctory tone and expression just now?

If he can bring Su Yu back, I, Zhou Tianqi, will take his surname!

Unfortunately, Yun Jie was unaware of Zhou Tianqi's current thoughts; otherwise, he might have brought Su Yu back, and at worst, he could have sent Su Yu back to the ancient city later.

Zhou Tianqi said again, "Old Qin, I have to remind you that if Su Yu continues to cause trouble, the fragile peace between the human race and all other races will be broken. We originally had several decades left, but now... that may not be the case."

With Su Yu's appearance and the revival of the polytheistic script system, the remaining fifty years of peace may be about to vanish.

After Zhou Tianqi finished speaking, Qin Guang raised his head, looked up at the battlefield above the heavens, and said in a deep voice, "Old Zhou, have you heard about the thousand-year period that the myriad races are talking about? Fifty years of peace? There was never any. At most, there are only a little over ten years left..."

"If we don't take advantage of these ten years to quickly become stronger, will we still have a chance in the future?"

Qin Guang was not optimistic about the upcoming millennium. Judging from the expressions of the gods, demons and other races, their strength would definitely increase exponentially once the millennium arrived, otherwise they would not have been so confident.

It was as if once the millennium had passed, the human race would be at their mercy.

Zhou Tianqi was silent for a moment. He naturally knew about the millennium period, and he even knew the specific time. The Battlefield of the Heavens had been open for 990 years, and there were only ten years left before the Upper Realm opened. Therefore, Qin Guang's concerns were correct, and he could not refute them.

But right now, is there any possibility that Su Yu can break the deadlock? Is it worth taking a gamble on him?

Zhou Tianqi's gaze was deep. To be honest, he didn't think highly of Su Yu, nor did he believe that Su Yu could become the ruler of this tide. His actions did not meet the standards of a ruler at all.

In Zhou Tianqi's eyes, a ruler should not be like this. Composure, domineering presence, and strategic planning are what a ruler should possess, and he could not see these qualities in Su Yu.

Su Yu gives the impression of being a madman, a shameless scoundrel, and so on.

There's another point: Su Yu wasn't trained by him, and he can't be sure which side Yun Jie, who trained Su Yu, is on. If he's on the traitor's side, then... something big is going to happen!

After a long pause, Zhou Tianqi said, "Old Qin, what do you think Yun Jie's purpose is? Is Su Yu's behavior at this moment under his instruction?"

Qin Guang glanced at him and said indifferently, "Are you doubting Yun Jie?"

Zhou Tianqi said calmly, "It's not a suspicion, just a casual chat."

Qin Guang said in a deep voice, "I don't care how you test each other, I firmly believe that Yun Jie is definitely not a problem. He also explained to me about Su Yu's matter that all of Su Yu's actions were spontaneous and that Yun Jie did not instruct him."

Qin Guang always trusted Yun Jie. Although he had increasingly felt that Yun Jie was not simple in recent years, he always believed that Yun Jie's heart was with the human race.

Therefore, he did not inquire about what Yun Jie was planning in private, and similarly, he did not inquire about what Zhou Tianqi was doing.

For him, as long as it doesn't harm humanity, it's good; there's no need to ask or care.

After Qin Guang had said this much, Zhou Tianqi remained silent.

The group simply gazed in the direction of the Starry Sea.

The other invincible beings were also paying close attention to the direction of the Starry Sea. Today's events were not only about Su Yu's life or death, but also about the situation between the human race and all other races.

Just as Yun Jie and his companion were rushing towards Xinghong Ancient City, several invincible beings from the God Clan and Demon Clan also set out, as their descendants were also trapped inside the ancient city. In particular, the Dao King of the Immortal Clan was so frustrated that he wanted to vomit blood. This was the second time, and when Dao Cheng was captured by Su Yu to exchange for resources, it made it the third time.

For a moment, he didn't care whether Guan Cheng lived or died.

At the same time, invincible beings from the Dragon and Phoenix clans also set out, but their main purpose was to watch the excitement and see if they could pick up any bargains.

The smaller tribes, however, were wiser this time, staying far away and not daring to approach, lest they suddenly become targets for the human race to establish its authority.

Humanity's repeated acts of annihilation have truly frightened them, making them hesitant to take sides unless victory is assured. In that case, they might step forward to express their stance and, incidentally, try to take advantage of the situation.

But let's forget about it for now and just watch from afar.

There is still some distance between the Eastern Rift Valley and Xinghong Ancient City. Xinghong Ancient City is already close to the center of the Star Sea, Xingyu Mansion.

Even with such a distance, it would still take Yun Jie and his companion quite a while to arrive.

Zhu the Landlord no longer had time for joking around. He said seriously, "Old Yun, do you think Su Yu can hold out until we arrive? This time, dozens of Sun and Moon Realm experts from all races have gathered in Xinghong Ancient City, and a considerable number of them are at the high level of Sun and Moon Realm. Based on the methods Su Yu has shown before, he can at most kill those at the fifth or sixth level of Sun and Moon Realm."

Yun Jie calmly said, "It's alright. Aren't Qin Zhen and the others in Xinghong Ancient City right now? I believe they won't stand idly by. Perhaps Xinghong Ancient City has already completely descended into chaos."

Then Yun Jie glanced at Zhu Dizhu and said, "Moreover, Yun Chen is also in Xinghong Ancient City. If things get out of hand, he will take action."

"!!!" Landlord Zhu looked at Yun Jie in shock and exclaimed, "Old Yun, are you crazy? Don't you know that all the races are watching your children? You still dare to let him run to the battlefield of the heavens?"

Landlord Zhu felt like he was going crazy. It was one thing for Yun Ying to come to the Battlefield of All Heavens before, since she stayed obediently in the front line of the Eastern Rift Valley and didn't run around. But now, after Yun Ying went back, Yun Chen came, and now he's even run to Xinghong Ancient City. This is going to drive me crazy!

Landlord Zhu hurriedly said, "Tell him not to make a move. If the myriad races discover him, they will probably kill him, not Su Yu!"

Yun Jie remained calm and smiled, "Don't worry, Yun Chen knows what we both know. I believe he won't make a move until the very last moment."

"That's good, that's good," Landlord Zhu nodded repeatedly.

He couldn't help but worry. If Yun Chen were exposed, he and Yun Jie wouldn't be able to control the situation. They weren't even confident with just Su Yu now, let alone Yun Chen... He didn't even want to think about it.

Now, all Zhu the landlord can do is pray that his grandson Zhu Guangshen, Qin Zhen, and An Ying can do something right and prevent Yun Chen from being exposed, otherwise the world will really collapse today.

Yun Jie said with a faint smile, "Hey Lao Zhu, I'm not even nervous yet, why do you look more nervous than me?"

Landlord Zhu said irritably, "Nonsense, how could I not be nervous in this situation? It's you who's acting strangely!"

Yun Jie's eyes flickered, and after chuckling, he didn't reply. At this moment, Xinghong Ancient City was already close at hand.

"Where are you two going in such a hurry?"

Several figures suddenly appeared and blocked Yun Jie and his companion's path.

Yun Jie stopped in his tracks, his eyes turning cold: "Get out of the way! Don't block my way!"

A few petty thugs dared to block their way.

The newcomer's face darkened: "What if we don't allow it?"

Landlord Zhu chuckled and said, "King Dao, King Xuan, it's not quite right for you to stop us here instead of rescuing your descendants. Aren't you afraid they'll die in the ancient city?"

Then, Zhu the Landlord changed the subject: "Dao King, you're blocking our way here. What, are you planning to sabotage the Human-Immortal Alliance? Or is this actually Tian Gu's doing?"

Dao Wang's face darkened, and he said sullenly, "We had no intention of disrupting the Human Immortal Alliance. We just happened to see you two, so we came to join in the fun. We'll be leaving now."

The invincible gods and demons sneered. The Human-Immortal Alliance? It's nothing but a joke, and it will soon become a thing of the past.

Landlord Zhu still wore a smile: "In that case, please let Dao King and Xuan King leave first."

The two men, Dao and Wang, glanced at the group, hesitated, and finally decided to leave.

Now is not the time to break ties with the human race.

After Dao Wang and his companion left, only three figures remained in front of Yun Jie and his companion: one from the Demon Clan and two from the God Clan.

Yun Jie said coldly, "Now it's just the three of you left. Are you still going to stop us? Or do you think the three of you can stop us?"
