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

May:???

April:???

March, Marquis of Giant Bamboo, Full Moon: ? ? ?

Six thousand years have passed, so it's not surprising that she got married and had children in August, but her strength in September... something's not right.

The fourth-level Dao Integration Realm cultivator's aura is still fluctuating, indicating that he is not far from advancing to the third level.

Is this reasonable?

Heaven took pity on them; during the tenth tidal change, the Iron-Eating Clan produced an unparalleled prodigy.

"Ahem, elders, please don't look at me like that. I'm not normal... no, I mean, my situation is abnormal because I took a shortcut, otherwise I would definitely still be an eternal being."

The people in March had strange looks in their eyes. What kind of shortcut could make your strength improve so quickly?

Seeing their confusion, he quickly explained it to them.

After a long while, March raised her head, her voice somewhat low, and asked, "So, it was the Prison King who killed February and sealed its Great Dao?"

Beside her, several pairs of large eyes were staring at September.

In September, she put down the bamboo she was holding and said with a sorrowful expression, "Yes!"

click!

The armrest of the chair was crushed by March, sending wood chips flying everywhere, but no one present even blinked.

"What a prison king!" March said through gritted teeth.

A strong killing intent rose up, but it was quickly replaced by a sense of powerlessness.

That's the King of Hell!

One of the Four Supreme Kings, possessing immense power and a fearsome reputation, he is the one who wields the power of punishment.

Even if she had disappeared, even if she were right here in the myriad realms, right in front of them, what could the Iron-Eating Clan do to her?

They were powerless to take revenge.

September understood their feelings and comforted them, saying, "We can't defeat the Prison King, but we can fight his entire lineage..."

A single word awakened me from my dream!

In March, they suddenly realized, "That's right!"

If we can't take revenge on the Prison King, can't we at least take revenge on his entire lineage? Let's wipe out the Prison King's lineage first; that would be a small amount of interest we'd gotten from him.

They made a decision in March.

Soon, the group composed themselves, and Marquis Giant Bamboo asked, "So, you've already joined the war in the lower realm?"

Since it was the humans who helped break the seal, it means that the Iron-Eating Clan in the lower realm must have made their choice. Moreover, the fact that September is here now is enough to explain a lot of things.

"Yes, not only our Iron-Eating Clan, but also the God-Eating Clan, the Life Clan, the Ancient Hou Clan, the Space Ancient Beast Clan, the Five Elements Clan, and even the guardians of the thirty-six ancient towns, all stand on the side of the human race."

Then, in September, she briefly recounted to the group what had recently happened in the lower realm.

"hiss!"

In March, several people gasped in shock. The mortal realm had changed!

There were many surprising things that happened to them. First, there was the change in the Immortal Clan, then the defection of the Fate Clan, followed by the fact that the Thirty-Six Ancient Cities took sides. Later, the Human Clan pacified the Netherworld, and the Myriad Realms were also taken over by the Human Clan.

Each and every single one of these events would have been enough to astonish them in March, let alone so many happening at the same time—it was simply unbelievable.

With so many things happening at once, even Marquis Juzhu and the others couldn't help but wonder, "September, are you sure what you're saying is true? You're not lying to us? Or are you actually living in a dream?"

September:"……"

"Really, everything I said is true! There's no way to lie about something that's so easily exposed, okay? Besides, I'm the Iron-Eating Beast King now. I wouldn't joke about the fate of the Iron-Eating Clan. I can take responsibility for my words. Everything I said is true."

"September said with a serious expression."

"hiss!"

In March, they gasped again. These things sounded like a dream come true, but now they had no choice but to believe them.

a long time.

Marquis Juzhu looked at Yun Jie and asked, "And who is this...?"

"Oh, this is Senior Wenyi, from the Wenwang Mansion."

With September's introduction, Yun Jie also regained his appearance as Wen Yi and appeared in front of March and the others.

"Wen Yi, from the Prince Wen's residence?"

In March, the group was surprised again, looking at Yun Jie with curiosity.

Well, actually I wasn't that surprised. It's just that I'd already been surprised enough, so I was a bit numb for a while.

"I have met several of them. I am Wen Yi, and I am indeed from the Wenwang Mansion. Strictly speaking, I should be considered a disciple of Lord Wenwang."

Yun Jie introduced himself with a smile, and then invoked the banner of being a disciple of King Wen. Of course, he said the same thing to Su Yu.

A disciple of King Wen!?

In March, their eyes were somewhat numb. A disciple was not someone a student could compare to. This meant that the person in front of them was a true direct descendant of King Wen, but... they had never heard of him before.

Then, in September, he quickly explained to the others. Upon hearing this, they realized that this person had never appeared in the outside world since ancient times and had always lived in the former residence of King Wen.

"Gentlemen, this is a small matter and there's no rush. His Majesty the Emperor is still waiting outside," Yun Jie reminded them with a smile.

"Oh, right, right, we'll go out and greet them now."

"No, our main priority this time in the Upper Realm is to keep a low profile. There's no need for any welcoming ceremony. I'll send a message to them and tell them to come in directly."

"Well... alright then, it was our fault for being negligent." Marquis Juzhu hesitated for a moment, but quickly came to terms with it.

"It's alright. These are special times, so we can skip unnecessary formalities. Emperor Yu isn't particularly concerned about these things."

As they were talking, Su Yu and his group quietly arrived outside the main hall. Along the way, none of the iron-eating beasts noticed them.

"Emperor Yu."

Upon seeing Su Yu, Yun Jie and Jiu Yue each called out.

"Um... I've met Emperor Yu."

In March, they called it for the first time. They weren't used to it, and it sounded a bit awkward to others. They themselves also felt awkward.

Moreover, Su Yu is far too young, and in terms of both strength and prestige, he is far inferior to the Human Emperor.

Especially for March and Marquis Juzhu, who had personally experienced the era of the ancient Human Emperor and felt the majesty of the Human Emperor, it was inevitable that they would feel a little awkward now that Su Yu, a rising star, had suddenly become emperor.

Of course, this feeling didn't last long. It was just a title, and you got used to it after a few times. Of course, it was just calling him Emperor Yu, without adding the words "Your Majesty".

There are many emperors, including immortal emperors, demon emperors, god emperors, and so on. Calling Su Yu "Yu Emperor" now is simply to regard him as the current emperor of the human race.

But once the words "Your Majesty" are added, the meaning changes; it signifies submission.

Let alone the fact that they haven't even reached an agreement yet, even if they had, calling His Majesty would be impossible.

At least for the time being, unless Su Yu completely subdues them, their relationship with the human race will be more one of cooperation than one of submission.

"Su Yu has met several seniors."

Not only did Yun Jie have a good impression of the Iron-Eating Clan, but Su Yu also had a good impression of them. Therefore, he did not put on airs at this time and was very polite.

When they heard the word "senior" in March, smiles appeared on their faces. It seemed that this person was not an arrogant person after all.

Soon, Yun Jie, Su Yu, and their group, hosted by the March guests, began drinking and chatting happily in the main hall.

Suddenly, Su Yu slowly put down his wine glass and smiled, "Seniors, now that we've had our drinks and meals, shouldn't we talk about cooperation? I'd like to know if you're willing to support me?"

quiet!

The once cheerful hall fell silent instantly. Yun Jie and the others stared motionlessly at San Yue and the others, quietly waiting for them to express their opinions.

In March, they put down their chopsticks and looked at the Giant Bamboo Marquis, their meaning clear: you make the decision.

Marquis Juzhu looked helpless. "Your Yue lineage is really something!"

March, April, and May gave a silly smile, as if to say, "What can I do? You're so smart!"

Marquis Juzhu glared back and said, "You're talking nonsense!"

It's clearly because you guys are lazy, too lazy to use your brains!

How did I end up with such a bunch of idiots...?

Chapter 475, Part 1: Embrace the Storm! [Seeking monthly votes! Seeking full subscription!]

······

This moment.

Marquis Juzhu felt that the Iron-Eating Clan was facing a bleak future with such an unreliable group of Beast Kings!

Ah, thank goodness I was there.

"Ahem," Marquis Giant Bamboo cleared his throat and said, "The human race and the Iron-Eating Clan have been staunch allies since ancient times. We have also lent a helping hand to the human race many times during the previous nine tides. Now, it is not impossible to cooperate again, but we need to see your strength. After all, words are not enough."

After a slight pause, Marquis Juzhu picked up the wine cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp. He continued, "Regardless of your achievements in the lower realm, firstly, it's just what you say; we can't see it and can't verify it for the time being. Secondly, this is the upper realm!"

Marquis Juzhu said with a serious expression, "You may be able to win in the lower realm, but that may not be the case in the upper realm. There are not many strong individuals left in the lower realm, and their strength is generally average. Compared to the upper realm, the difference is like heaven and earth. Therefore, we need you to demonstrate sufficient strength!"

After Marquis Juzhu finished speaking, Su Yu looked at Sanyue and asked, "Senior Sanyue, is this what you all mean as well?"

“Yes,” March nodded. “What Marquis Juzhu means is what we mean. As long as you can demonstrate enough strength and give us a glimmer of hope for victory, even if it’s just a sliver, we are willing to support you with all our might.”

Su Yu nodded thoughtfully. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, they would give their full support. It has to be said that the Iron Eater Clan had already shown great sincerity.

Thinking of this, Su Yu smiled and asked, "Then how does Marquis Juzhu hope we will demonstrate our strength? Is it to defeat you or to kill a certain number of enemies?"

Su Yu tapped the table lightly and said calmly, "To be honest, it's not advisable for us to expose ourselves right now. After all, we recently provoked a conflict between the traitorous Prison King lineage and the myriad races. They're about to start fighting each other. It's not appropriate for us to jump out at this time; that would undoubtedly be helping the Prison King lineage out of their predicament."

March, Marquis of Giant Bamboo, April, May, and Full Moon were completely dumbfounded, staring at each other wide-eyed: What?!

Was this done by Su Yu and his group?

Wait a minute, isn't that Marquis Dingjun at the back of the line?
