Chapter 507: Chapter 394: Entering Main City (Second Update)

Stepping outside, Chunyu and Xiayu draped him with a wide and magnificent black robe. Su Yu, followed by Ada and Diudiu, proceeded to the hall. To his surprise, it wasn’t the lady in white that he expected, but a young man in a blue shirt.

The young man bowed respectfully and said with a smile, "Honorable Black Iron City Lord, I am here on behalf of Inspector General to deliver a message from the ’Master of the Main City’. You’re invited to the ’Main City’ to attend the birthday celebration of the ’Master of the Main City’ in three days time."

Upon realizing that the woman in white had not come, Su Yu aptly deduced that she must’ve felt too embarrassed to face him and hence, had delegated this task to the young man. He smiled, nodded and then asked, "May I know, how to get to the ’Main City’?" He honestly didn’t really know about the location of the "Main City".

The young man in blue hesitated before smiling and responding, "City Lord, you only need to activate your City Lord’s key, it will naturally take you to the Main City. Now that my message has been delivered, I will take my leave." He then gracefully retreated, light began to emit from his body, and very quickly, he disappeared from the hall.

Hearing this, Su Yu took out his City Lord seal murmuring, "So this thing has such a function. Can it really teleport me directly to the Main City? This is interesting. Nobody probably knows where the ’Main City’ really is."

Ada chuckled, "Who would have thought that the Master of the Main City would invite you to his birthday banquet? I guess he wants you guys to bring him gifts."

With a faint smile, Su Yu responded, "Bringing a gift in exchange to get a look at the mysterious ’Main City’ seems like a fair deal."

As for the matter of the gift, he handed it over to Jiang Hai, since Su Yu didn’t want to bother. With Qin Jiagui summoned, Su Yu got updated on the current situation in Freedom Village.

Qin Jiagui currently oversaw the intelligence gathering. Freedom Village naturally was one of their main areas of attention. From Qin Jiagui, Su Yu learned that Meng Ting was indeed very talented. Meng Jun had made a breakthrough and officially became a Sixth-order Powerhouse, while Meng Ting was on the threshold of the Fifth-order Peak. Dragon Kid had also reached its growth phase four, and the population of Freedom Village had once again reached two hundred. In their hundred li radius, they still had considerable strength and reputation, and nobody dared to underestimate them.

"I’m glad to hear that they are all safe," said Su Yu, letting out a soft sigh, "What about the Demon Beast Mountain Range that I asked you to investigate?"

The appearance of the icy world with the Demon Beast Mountain Range on the east side, as well as his encounter with the skull relic that resulted in flooding of that area, had always been a thorn in Su Yu’s side. Now that he had gained enough strength, Su Yu decided to ask Qin Jiagui to keep an eye on the area and immediately report back any unusual activities.

Qin Jiagui furrowed his eyebrows and responded, "I’ve got many people stationed there but didn’t find anything unusual. The only exception is the increasing roars heard deep in the heart of the Demon Beast Mountain Range - as if something is going to happen. However, those beasts are fierce, and our men can’t go too deep into that area. To do so, we would need at least a sixth or even seventh-order person."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu fell silent. He tapped on the table lightly, "Always keep an eye on that place. Yesterday, Gu Lingshuang and Ren Honglin asked me to help with ’Black and White City’ information. Have you found any clues?"

Black and White City was responsible for killing hundreds of students and teachers at their school. Gu Lingshuang and Ren Honglin had always held a grudge against them. Earlier, when they didn’t have the power, they endured. But now that Su Yu had become the Black Iron City Lord and gained a considerable amount of power, they were eager to investigate Black and White City.

Qin Jiagui pondered, "Given that Black and White City is a city itself, I suspect its strength is not less than ours. Our intelligence reach at the moment only extends to the eighteen villages under our control. It’s probably beyond our ability to investigate the ’Black and White City’."

After a pause, Su Yu asked, "Do you remember our encounter with a fat man from Hailou Town? He mentioned that there’s a ’Sky Zither Sea’ at the northernmost point of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, with a black and white ’City of Steel’ in the sea."

Qin Jiagui asked, "You suspect that ’City of Steel’ is the Black and White City?"

Nodding slightly, Su Yu said, "There’s a possibility. Why don’t you send someone to investigate? But remember, do not give away your intentions." Now that he owned a Demon Divine Beast and had swallowed enough Day Coins, as long as the location of Black and White City was determined, he wouldn’t mind summoning the Demon Divine Beast to strike a deadly blow and destroy the city that brought about bloodshed and chaos that day.

Off nodded Qin Jiagui and left to get busy with his tasks.

Two days’ time swiftly passed, and Jiang Hai had prepared a generous gift for Su Yu. Upon opening it, Su Yu discovered it was a Blood Coral Tree, said to have a lifespan and history spanning over ten thousand years. Its beauty was of shocking profundity, especially when placed in darkness, where it radiated a bloody brilliance, like an Everlasting Tree.

Jiang Hai declared with pride, "I’m confident that the Master of the Main City will love this. According to the information I’ve received, this city master is so wealthy it’s inexpressible, possessing all kinds of treasures. Giving money would be too vulgar and wouldn’t interest him in the least. However, this Blood Coral Tree springs forth only once every ten thousand years. It’s practically unique; he’ll certainly like it."

Su Yu smiled lightly, "All right, we’ll go with this then." He then sealed the Blood Coral Tree in a box made of jade. Ma Ziye, Su Yun, and Zhang Zhongmou, learning that he would attend the birthday banquet of the Master of the Main City in the mysterious "Main City", all wanted to come along. Jiang Hai hastily stopped them, saying, "Traditionally, only the City Lord is invited when the Main City summons. Even bringing a single extra person requires prior permission and approval. Recklessly coming along could potentially infuriate the Main City, which might then mete out punishment."

At these words, expressions of disappointment surfaced on the faces of Zhang Zhongmou and the others. Jiang Hai laughed, "I am equally curious about the Main City, but I can’t do anything about it. I’ve never been there before either."

Su Yu, seeing that it was almost time, nodded to the group, "I’ll leave Black Iron City in your hands for now. When I return, I’ll tell you what the Main City is like. Ha-ha." Holding the box of jade, he took out the City Lord’s Seal. In the past two days, he had researched this item and found that its uses were vast. Teleportation and communication were just two of its many features.

With his will, the talismans on it started to shift, swiftly forming a different array. It then activated as if a mechanism had been triggered. A white light shone from it, reaching up to the sky. It quickly enveloped Su Yu and Ada. This time, even Diu Diu wasn’t granted permission to come along. Only Su Yu and Ada started the teleportation function of the "City Lord’s Seal". Soon, with a flash of white light, Su Yu and Ada vanished before everyone’s eyes.

"This guy is really lucky, getting to attend such a banquet. I’ve never attended one since coming to this world." Zhang Zhongmou looked on with envy.

Jiang Hai gave a bitter laugh, "Whatever Su Yu does, I just hope he doesn’t stir up trouble. I’ve seen his daredevil nature before, and seeing him leave for the Main City makes me feel uneasy. I have a premonition. Wherever this guy goes, there’s never peace."

As the scenery before him shifted, Su Yu felt like when Ada summoned the "Heavenly Pit" power for teleportation. The talisman power within the City Lord’s Seal bypasses the power of Category 5 Lifeforms. However, it has the function of remembering specific locations and can only teleport to those memorized locations. It can’t randomly teleport to the Sixth-Class Elemental Spaces like Category 5 Lifeforms can.

When the scenes before him became clear again, Su Yu found himself standing before a huge statue surrounded by a pool. Three people were at his side. Judging by their appearances, they had just been teleported as well. Two more flashes of white light followed, and two more people appeared.

They glanced at each other, giving each other a subtle nod of acknowledgement. Then, they all turned their gaze toward Su Yu with a touch of surprise in their eyes.

At the same moment, Su Yu’s heart started pounding aggressively.

Observing the individuals that appeared, each one seemed inscrutable. One was a middle-aged noblewoman, one a white-haired elder, two middle-aged men, and the last, astonishingly, a Minotaur monster. This Minotaur was lavishly dressed and held a City Lord’s Seal in its hand, representing his identity. He was also the City Lord who wielded control over a city.

"Looks like another city’s lord has been replaced. Moreover, it’s such a young man." One of the awe-inspiring middle-aged men chuckled. A City Lord’s Seal rested in his hand as well, representing his status as a City Lord.

"This one here is Su Yu from Black Iron City. Your news is quite outdated." Suddenly, another flash of white light followed, and a man clad entirely in light silver armor appeared.

This man’s face was half-covered by his helmet, making it impossible to see clearly. When he noticed the astonished expression on the others’ faces toward Su Yu, he gave a faint smile.

"Oh? Black Iron City? You mean Olic died by his hand? Olic was not an easy opponent." The individuals showed astonished expressions.

Su Yu understood their astonishment and responded with a peaceful smile. He looked at the man in the general’s armor and asked, "You know me?" (To be continued... to know what happens next, please log in to www.qidian.com with many more Chapters in support of the author and legal reading!)
