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

Secondly, they didn't know Yun Jie's background or his true strength, so they didn't dare to act rashly for fear of being tricked.

Throughout the myriad realms, anyone with a brain knows that humans are the most treacherous.

······

Within the same time period.

Xia Wushen led his team to the rebuilt Nine Star Island outside the Xingyu Mansion.

For small tribes, reclaiming land from the sea requires a considerable investment, but for large tribes, it's a piece of cake.

With the intervention of several invincible individuals, a brand new island reappeared on the sea, but this new Nine Star Island no longer bore any trace of the ancient city of Xinghong.

He was not welcomed by the various tribes, partly out of concern that Su Yu was too troublesome and it was better to stay away from him.

Therefore, at this moment, Xinghong Ancient City was floating alone on the sea.

However, Su Yu wasn't particularly concerned. If he wanted to, he could set up the ancient city on the newly built Nine Star Island at any time. Did they dare to stop him?

If other races intervene, it will only suit his purposes. In that case, Xinghong will have a legitimate reason to take action, both to kill and to establish his authority. How wonderful!

But right now Su Yu is busy bargaining with Liu Hong. After searching around, he finally realized that the most suitable person to impersonate him is Liu Hong, his teacher Bai Feng's mortal enemy.

Liu Hong is also very bold, practically a carbon copy of Su Yu. However, his actions are not as sensational as Su Yu's, and he doesn't dare to target powerful clans. Therefore, even though some people hate him to the core, he is still living a very comfortable life.

And now, he has even infiltrated the ancient city.

Because he knew that Su Yu would definitely be unable to resist running into Xingyu Mansion, he volunteered to go.

"Su Yu, stop haggling. Think about it, who else is more suitable to impersonate you than me? Besides, Xingyu Mansion is opening tomorrow. Where are you going to find someone in such a short time? What I want shouldn't be too much, right? It's just a drop in the ocean for you, Su Yu, the big tycoon."

Xinghong Ancient City, inside the city lord's palace.

Liu Hong was speaking earnestly, but Su Yu remained unmoved.

Liu Hong continued, "Su Yu, now that you're successful, can't you even help your former teacher? Don't forget, I provided some of your cultivation resources back then."

At this moment, Su Yu said disdainfully, "That was your own bet that you lost to Teacher Bai. Don't try to make yourself look good. Besides, I heard recently that you were swindling and cheating people in my name. Did you ask me? Did you get my permission? What about my share?"

In an instant, Liu Hong's expression stiffened. Damn it, who told Su Yu about this? It shouldn't be like this; he had been keeping a low profile.

"What, you used my name, Su Yu, to swindle money, shouldn't you give me half?"

Su Yu was unforgiving. Although Liu Hong was skilled at deceiving people, he was using his own name and claiming to be working for him. This was a clear case of damaging his reputation, and he wouldn't even get any benefit from it. How could Su Yu tolerate this?

Everyone knows that Su Yu is notoriously petty and vengeful. Isn't Liu Hong just provoking a hornet's nest? If he doesn't skin Liu Hong alive today, he's not even a Su.

Liu Hong's eyes darted around, and he asked, "Su Yu, do you think my cultivation level is improving quickly?"

Su Yu glanced at him. He was at the ninth level of the Lingyun realm, and his speed was decent, but he couldn't compare to him. However, given Liu Hong's combat strength, Su Yu felt he could kill him with one hand; he was too weak.

Of course, Liu Hong is still faster than Bai Feng. Bai Feng is currently only at the fourth level of the Lingyun realm.

Oh, teacher, how can you be so weak?

Su Yu nodded, looking serious, and said, "Not bad, but still far inferior to me."

Liu Hong rolled his eyes. "Go to hell! Do you really think everyone is as weird as you? I'm not comparing myself to you. I'm comparing myself to a normal person. I'm comparing myself to Bai Feng. Is that okay?"

Then, Liu Hong said mysteriously, "So guess why I was able to improve so quickly?"

Su Yu was exhausted and said speechlessly, "You're not trying to say that you used all the resources you swindled to improve your cultivation, are you?"

Liu Hong immediately laughed, "As expected of you, Su Yu, you're so smart, you guessed it right away."

Su Yu: "..."

"So, you're planning to renege on your debt? You don't want to leave the ancient city alive?"

Liu Hong's smile instantly froze. Well, he couldn't fool them anymore.

"Ahem, well, how about this, this time I'll impersonate you and I won't take your kickback. Let's call it even, what do you say?"

“But you still owe me a sum of money to buy your life,” Su Yu looked at Liu Hong deeply and said slowly, “But forget it, for the sake of our teacher-student relationship, I won’t hold it against you this time.”

Su Yu noticed Liu Hong's unusual behavior. This man wasn't someone Su Yu had kidnapped and brought into the ancient city; he had come on his own. Moreover, he kept glancing towards the Death Passage. Su Yu thought his eyes were very discreet, but he had no idea what Liu Hong was up to.

However, now is not the time to delve into this. With Liu Hong around, he can enter the Xingyu Mansion with peace of mind.

Once he's inside, it doesn't matter whether he's exposed or not. As long as he eliminates all the enemies he sees, who will know that he's entered the Starry Sky Mansion?

Su Yu is now very confident in his abilities. A week ago, he completed the seventy-second forging stage and is now just waiting to enter the Starry Sky Mansion before seeking an opportunity to break through.

Actually, he could have broken through these past few days, but Yun Jie told him that entering the Starry Sky Mansion would bring some benefits and enhance his foundation, so he temporarily held back from breaking through. Otherwise, he would have already entered the Soaring Cloud Realm, of course, referring to his physical body.

His willpower is now at the ninth level of the Soaring Cloud Realm, not far from the Mountain and Sea Realm. However, he is not in a hurry. His divine apertures are not yet fully opened. He will enter the Mountain and Sea Realm when they are all opened.

With one day remaining before the Starry Sky Mansion opens, Su Yu plans to visit Hongmeng to inquire about some ancient information.

Hongmeng is an ancient relic that survived from the ancient times, so it should know quite a bit about the Starry Sky Mansion.

He originally wanted to ask Yun Jie, but he couldn't find him, so he had no choice but to go find the Primordial Turtle.

Before long, Xinghong Ancient City soared into the sky, immediately attracting the attention of many people. At this time, they would not let any movement go unnoticed, let alone an ancient city, and of course, Su Yu inside.

Xinghong Ancient City suddenly vanished into thin air. Watching the departing figure of the ancient city, someone wondered, "Huh, could it be that Su Yu really doesn't intend to enter Xingyu Mansion? He actually left at this time."

A god of the Sun and Moon clan sneered, "Heh, I think he's scared. Last time he forged a demonic weapon, the Immortal Clan issued a kill order against him. He doesn't even dare to leave the ancient city now, let alone enter the Starry Sky Mansion."

Someone was whispering in the shadows, not daring to show their face.

"Tch, that sounds nice. How many kill orders have been issued against him by various races? Yet he's always alive and kicking, while it's always the people from those races who die."

"Heh, you're right. Su Yu is really damn weird."

Immediately, everyone was discussing and speculating, and Su Yu once again became the topic of conversation.

With a loud bang.

A violent tremor occurred on the seabed, causing many underwater mountain ranges to collapse.

Here, Xinghong Ancient City was successfully connected to Hongmeng Ancient City, and Su Yu quickly flew towards Hongmeng Old Turtle.

When he forged the Civilization Chronicle last time, he chatted a lot with the old tortoise, and their relationship improved considerably. Therefore, Su Yu directly stated his purpose.

At the same time.

Endless void.

Yun Jie, Tian Gu, and the others did not engage in combat, but silently watched Xinghong Ancient City as it landed next to Hongmeng Ancient City.

As Xinghong Ancient City landed next to Hongmeng Ancient City, everyone lost sight of it; that was because the Hongmeng Old Turtle had made his move.

Normally, these people can spy on him when he's sleeping, but not now... not now.

So everyone looked away.

"Great Xuan King, do you think Su Yu will also enter the Starry Sky Mansion this time?"

Tian Gu suddenly spoke up.

Before Yun Jie could speak, the Overwatch Lord smiled and said, "This Su Yu is very bold. I guess he probably won't miss this opportunity. If he misses it this time, the next one will be ten years later, and ten years later... hehe."

Ten years from now, when the Upper Realm opens, will humanity still have the energy and time to explore the Starry Sky Mansion?

Or, to put it another way, will all races still tolerate the continued existence of the human race?

It can now be basically concluded that the day the upper realm opens will be the day the human race is destroyed.

Of course, unless there are still many ancient humans in the upper realm, but that's impossible.

In the last tide, under the leadership of the Hundred Battles King, the human race lost over a hundred Dao Integration Realm cultivators—that's over a hundred Dao Integration Realm cultivators!

After the battle of the last tide, how many ancient humans are left?

It is precisely because of this that the Marquis of the Heavens now has the courage to stand up and oppose the human race. You must know that before this tide, he did not dare to show his face in the battlefield of the heavens and hid in the endless void all year round, for fear that the human race would find him.

Tian Gu nodded calmly and said, "I now hope he's brave enough and doesn't get scared into hiding in the ancient city."

The Immortal Clan has made preparations for this trip to the Starry Sky Mansion. They have sent eight Invincible individuals, including two Eternal Ninth Stage experts!

It must be said that the Immortal Clan has a considerable number of ninth-level experts, far more than the God and Demon Clans.

On the side of the gods and demons, only 6 invincible beings were sent, each led by a ninth-level expert. In other words, there are four ninth-level experts from the three races of immortals, gods, and demons, which is three more than in the original story.

In the original work, the myriad races camp dispatched many invincible warriors, but there was only one ninth-level warrior, the Bloodfire Demon King. Unfortunately, he is now dead, having died at the hands of Yun Ying in the last battle.

It is clear that the Hunter's Pavilion also has a ninth-level expert, namely the Minister of the Heavenly Department.

The remaining members of the Ming, Feng, and Tianyuan clans, among others, had a cultivation level of only the sixth stage, with not even a single one at the late stage. It was unclear whether they were worried about being killed at the Xingyu Mansion or simply wanted to preserve their strength.

However, they also knew that even if they didn't send any of their own people out, the immortals, gods, and demons would still spare no effort in targeting the human race. Therefore, all they needed to do was cheer them on from behind.

In the endless void.

Ji Wu glanced at Yun Jie calmly and said, "Where is the Great Ming King? Could that black-robed figure in the group be him? This way of hiding, huh."

This is just a self-deceiving trick; do you really think everyone else is stupid?

Of the five human leaders, only his whereabouts are unknown, and then another black-robed man appeared in the human ranks. Who else could it be but the Great Ming King? Isn't this just burying one's head in the sand? It's like trying to hide something obvious.

Looking at the group of brilliant minds in front of him, Yun Jie chuckled to himself and remained silent. Speaking now would only backfire, so he simply kept quiet and let them guess.

······

Half a day later.

Su Yu walked out of the City Lord's Mansion of Hongmeng City with a satisfied expression, seemingly having made a good haul, which was indeed the case.

After confirming with the old tortoise that no one could spy on the ancient city, Su Yu transformed into a fish and disappeared into the deep sea, while Xinghong Ancient City stood quietly beside Hongmeng Ancient City.

Inside the ancient city, the Primordial Tortoise and Xing Hong watched Su Yu leave.

Xinghong turned to look at the Hongmeng Old Turtle and said, "Boss, aren't you going to stop him?"
