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

Currently, their combined strength is insufficient, so they can only use a remote restraint method to prevent him from having the opportunity to devour Wen Yu.

······

outside world.

Su Yu roared, "All of you come here, sort out the Great Dao, and comprehend the Great Dao."

"This..." The crowd hesitated.

"Stop hesitating and come over here."

Su Yu not only wanted to cultivate Tao himself, but also wanted to get everyone else to cultivate Tao together.

The next moment, the Great Qin King, the Great Xia King, Xia Longwu, Fu Tuling, and many others who had not participated in the battle entered Su Yu's world.

Gradually, as the fusion of Dao neared its end, Su Yu's aura rose back to the Heavenly Venerable realm. At this moment, only the Great Dao of Life and Death remained to be reached.

Only by successfully opening the Great Path of Life and Death can Su Yu's world form a closed loop, and only then can this world be considered successfully opened; otherwise, it is a failure.

"King of the South, Marquis of Lanshan, Liu Hong, King of Great Zhou, prepare yourselves to receive the power of life and death!"

Everyone was prepared for this, and everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Just as everyone was preparing, Yun Jie looked at Su Yu and said in a deep voice, "Yu, before that, you need to undergo another period of annihilation... to live towards death. Think it through. Do you still want to continue? It's not too late to give up now, otherwise you might really die if you're not careful."

Su Yu looked at Yun Jie with a smile and slowly said, "Grandpa, it's come to this point, and you want me to give up? Besides, isn't this the shackle you put on me? You guided me step by step to become the ruler of humanity, to become the new emperor. Now, can I really give up? If I give up, what will happen to the others?"

"To be honest, I also want to give up. Getting to this point is not my will. If I had known earlier that you were the Great Xuan King, I would have chosen to just live a life of leisure and wait to die. Let whoever wants to be the ruler be it. I'll live one day at a time. I just want to get a good night's sleep."

Yun Jie remained silent, his mind filled with countless thoughts. Perhaps... he shouldn't have placed this pressure on Su Yu. Su Yu could have avoided it. Just as Su Yu said, if he had known earlier that his grandfather was the Great Xuan King, he wouldn't have worked so hard, and none of this would have happened later.

Thinking about it, it makes sense. I clearly had so many choices, whether it was Wan Tiansheng, Lan Tian, ​​or anyone else. There are so many people in the human race. If I randomly chose one to train, he wouldn't be much worse than Su Yu. It's just that I was influenced by the original work from the beginning and thought that Su Yu was the only one who could do it.

But in reality, is Su Yu truly indispensable?

"Grandpa, I know what you're hiding, and I know what the Great Zhou King is hiding. I just want to ask one question: if I give up, can humanity win?"

Su Yu was very clever. He wasn't unaware of some things, but he just didn't want to say them out loud. But now, just as Yun Jie said, he might never wake up again after this annihilation, so he simply laid his cards on the table.

Yun Jie was stunned on the spot. Su Yu's meaning was very clear, and he understood.

Su Yu meant, "Grandpa, what are your trump cards? Show them already! I don't want to work anymore, I want to sleep..."

Yun Jie was both amused and exasperated. What was going on? Why bring this up at the very last moment of the creation of the world?

Yun Jie really wanted to say yes, but...

"Sigh, you... this sudden move, what am I supposed to say? The creation of the world is almost over, and then this happens, you... sigh..." Yun Jie sighed several times in a row.

Su Yu chuckled and said, "Didn't you tell me to give up?"

"Do you think you'll give up just because I tell you to?" At this moment, Yun Jie saw through Su Yu.

"No, I just want to quit, but I still want to create the world and cultivate the Tao. The freedom of the Time Master and King Wen is what I yearn for. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up, and someone to help clean up the mess. How great is that?"

Yun Jie: "..."

"Let's talk about it after you successfully create the world."

Su Yu smiled broadly. "I understand. Now I can go all out."

Yun Jie didn't even look at him. You understood before you'd even said a few words. You don't understand anything!

······

Su Yu, thinking he had received an answer, was overjoyed. He didn't think about what Yun Jie was hiding from him; he only knew that without him, the human race would not lose, and that was enough.

In the blink of an eye, Su Yu entered a state of annihilation, which meant he was dead.

Looking at the lifeless "corpse" before him, Yun Jie sighed softly. "Ah, this is really a headache. This is putting me in a difficult position."

Why would he want to give up at this crucial moment? Have I really ruined him...?

Let's not go into how conflicted Yun Jie was.

At this moment, Su Yu's "corpse" was surrounded by people who were watching him nervously, afraid that he would not wake up.

They overheard Su Yu and Yun Jie's conversation, but they didn't have time to think about it too much right now. Except for a few people, such as King Da Zhou, Wan Tiansheng, and Lan Tian, ​​who were worried about Su Yu, they were also thinking about something.

The Great Zhou King was speechless. Why was he being dragged into this again every day?

Yun Jie glanced at them and said, "Have you rolled your eyes enough? Stop thinking about it and get ready to draw upon the power of life and death!"

Looking at everyone, Yun Jie immediately gave orders: "Wen Yi, Giant Axe Marquis, Devouring King, General Xue Lan, the four of you guard the Chaos and don't let the ancient beasts get close. The rest of you, go and suppress the Ruins of Return. Fat Ball, if any of the undead in the seal make any moves, take your master's boots and smash them hard."

"Old Zhou, you're in charge of harnessing the life force."

"Nan Wang, Lan Shan Hou, and Xia Chen, the three of you are responsible for drawing upon the power of death."

Finally, Yun Jie looked at Liu Hong and said calmly, "Liu Hong, get your Ink Dao ready. You'll be responsible for connecting Su Yu's Heaven and Earth and the Great Dao of the Dead in a little while. You'll probably be under a lot of pressure. Hang in there. I've given you a chance, but your cultivation is still so slow. You're a waste!"

After Yun Jie finished speaking, everyone froze on the spot, not making a move for a long time. Apart from Yun Chen and a few others, the others were at a loss, not knowing whether they should listen to Yun Jie.

"Why should we listen to you? Don't think you can order us around just because you're Su Yu's grandfather. We're waiting for Emperor Yu to wake up."

The Prince of Nan and the Marquis of Lanshan did not respect Yun Jie's opinion. In addition, although Wan Tiansheng, Lan Tian and others did not speak, they clearly shared the same attitude as the Prince of Nan and the others.

"Does my word no longer carry? Just go when I tell you to, stop with the nonsense!"

At this moment, Yun Jie exuded an imposing aura without anger, and a chilling light flashed in his eyes, sending a shiver down everyone's spine.

Even so, they still didn't move an inch. Yun Jie was both amused and exasperated. Well, his words really didn't work.

Just then, Su Yu's aura surged, and a loud voice rang out: "Open!"

Buzz!

Su Yu stood up, his white robe turning into a black robe, his entire body becoming pitch black, exuding an incredibly strong aura of death.

The next second, a Path of Death appeared instantly, followed by a Path of Life, the two paths completing the heaven and earth.

"Resurrection!"

Su Yu shouted and stepped onto the Path of Life, attempting to be resurrected, but he failed...

After several attempts, he gave up, frowning as he said, "Try drawing upon the power of life and death."

Without further hesitation, everyone quickly divided the tasks: some remained in the chaos, others suppressed the land of Guixu, while the Great Zhou King, the Southern King, and the Marquis of Lanshan went to draw upon the power of life and death, and Liu Hong also exerted his strength to move the ink path.

In an instant, everyone left, leaving only Yun Jie and Su Yu.

Su Yu smiled. Although he had been silent, he had still heard what was happening outside. "Grandpa, it seems like they're not listening to you."

Yun Jie glanced at him and said indifferently, "Whether you listen to me or not is irrelevant. But what's there to be proud of? You said you wanted to quit, but to me, it seems like you're enjoying it."

Su Yu grinned, his entire body covered in black except for his white teeth. He said, "Even so, I can't help but feel happy. This shows that my months as the new emperor weren't in vain, right? What do you think, Grandpa?"

Yun Jie didn't indulge him and said calmly, "Yes, it wasn't for nothing. I've cleared all the obstacles for you. If it's for nothing, then I really don't know what to say."

Su Yu smiled faintly and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to Grandpa leading the human race and other races to a great victory, otherwise I wouldn't be so relaxed."

Yun Jie nodded calmly: "That's one of them, but that's not what I'm talking about now."

Su Yu: "???"

"What is that? Persuading the various prefectures and uniting the various tribes?"

"That's one point too..."

"Grandpa, stop beating around the bush and just say it." Su Yu was speechless; he sensed that Yun Jie wanted to take revenge on him.

Looking at the crowd in the distance, Yun Jie smiled faintly and said, "Why do you think the town garrison commander supported you back then? Why do you think the Emperor of Fate pledged allegiance to you? Why do you think Dao Qi helped the human race? Why do you think... cough cough, never mind, let's leave it at that for now."

Yun Jie noticed Su Yu's increasingly resentful gaze, so he stopped asking the soul-searching question "What do you think?" for fear that Su Yu might not be able to bear it and give up on the revival process.

"Well, I knew it! No wonder everything went so smoothly. It was all your doing. You're such a good grandfather!"

Staring at Yun Jie, Su Yu gritted his teeth and said, as if he wanted to beat Yun Jie up right away.

Good heavens, so everything I did was pre-arranged!?

Chapter 516 is packed with information! [Requesting monthly votes! Requesting full subscription!]

······

Within a small world that has just taken shape and is not yet fully stable.

Looking at Su Yu, who was gritting his teeth, Yun Jie remained calm and said softly, "Whether I make arrangements or not, I just want to make things easier for you. I don't want my grandson, whom I raised from a young age, to become a madman because of all sorts of pressure. This era doesn't need so many madmen..."

“Even without my arrangements, even if I do nothing, the ancient city will still choose you, and the Destiny Clan will still choose to submit to the Human Clan. It’s just that the process will be more complicated, and you may… feel despair.”

“I don’t want you to hate Grandpa when you find out the truth later, so I have to do something, at least to make it easier for you to win.”

At this moment, Su Yu's expression had returned to calm. He said quietly, "Why me? There were so many people to choose from, why me of all people? Don't you know my initial wish? I just wanted to study hard at the Academy of Civilization, to become a researcher, a Civilization Master, to decipher the cultivation techniques of all races, and to delve into the civilizations of all races..."

Yun Jie shook his head: "You have to understand, it wasn't me who chose you, it was the Book of Time, it was fate, it was them who chose you. Even without me, you would have walked this path and reached this position."

"Besides, are you sure your wish can come true? Are you sure you can really be content with mediocrity? At that time, don't you want to unravel the secret of your long-standing nightmares? I knew you were a troublemaker from the moment you were born, so don't try that on me. I'm not taking the blame for this."

Su Yu: "..."

"So, the Time Book is..."

"Hey, don't try to pin this on me, it really has nothing to do with me."

“But you know!” Su Yu stared at Yun Jie.

"I know, so what? You just kept saying you were having nightmares and wanted to sleep, but you didn't ask me to take it out for you. Besides, didn't I tell you to go to sleep later?"

Yun Jie suddenly started arguing illogically, with a hint of feigning ignorance in his words.

After hearing this, Su Yu was speechless. At the same time, he once again realized how shameless Yun Jie was. Not to mention that he was ignorant at the time and had no idea that there was a book in his mind, when he finally found out, he didn't know that his grandfather was so powerful. So, where could he explain this to Yun Jie?

"Ahem, alright, why are you worrying about this? Let's prepare for resurrection. Oh, I forgot to mention, before you resurrect, sever the necromantic passage connecting you to Xingyue. Don't be reluctant, otherwise you won't be able to revive at all."

Since we've already said so much, Yun Jie doesn't mind saying a little more.

"..." Su Yu was embarrassed and said, "I'm not reluctant to part with her. There's really nothing between us. Also, Grandpa, you seem to know everything. Besides the Zhou Tian Yuan Qiao Fa, Zhou Tian Shen Qiao Fa, and the Da Zhou Tian Qiao Xue Running Method, you know them too, right? If nothing unexpected happens, you've opened the Heavenly Gate as well."

Yun Jie didn't reply. He had opened the Heavenly Gate, but it had collapsed. Now he had no gates at all, and he didn't need any.

Just then, Liu Hong's voice rang out from within the Netherworld: "Su Yu, get ready! I'm coming!"

Buzz!
