Chapter 584: Chapter 450: Tears of Timis

Lei Leian was slightly taken aback upon hearing Su Yu say that she and the "Black Iron Guardian" Beth Finley looked exactly alike.

Seeing that she seemed to have genuinely never seen the "Black Iron Guardian," Su Yu couldn’t help but ask, "Lei Leian, have you never participated in these trials before?"

Lei Leian hummed in affirmation, saying, "I heard about these trials a long time ago, they take place once a month and the participants are chosen randomly. However, I have indeed never been selected, nor have I ever seen this ’Black Iron Guardian’ Beth Finley you speak of. You said she looks identical to me...that’s quite odd indeed."

Lei Leian finally understood why Su Yu had been so insistent on asking her about the "Black Iron Guardian" Beth Finley. It seemed that because she bore a striking resemblance to Beth Finley, it had led Su Yu to suspect whether she had any connection to the "Black Iron Guardian".

Lei Leian shook her head, a look of bewilderment crossed her regal and beautiful face. "I really don’t know her. It’s strange that she would look just like me..." Unable to make sense of it, Lei Leian decided to change the subject. With a look of concern, she said, "Su Yu, you say you’ve been punished by the Black Iron Guardian, tormented daily. Have you thought of a solution? Ada, you are a Category 5 Lifeform, quite knowledgeable, do you not have any ideas either?"

Ada thoughtfully said, "To break this seal, one could only use the Power of Rules that shares the same nature as the Black Iron Guardian. Otherwise, as she said, transcending the peak level of a Black Iron Warrior, stepping out of this world, there seems to be no other way."

Hearing Ada’s words, Lei Leian’s eyes brightened. "The Power of Rules? Can it be solved just by using the Power of Rules?"

Ada hummed in affirmation, but her face showed trouble. "However...this ’Power of Rules,’ is hard to capture. Even though I know the Power of Rules can be used, I still can’t find any traceable ’Power of Rules.’"

"Traceable Power of Rules..." With a light smile, Lei Leian said, "This, I do know. Leave it to me."

Upon hearing Lei Leian’s confirmation, Su Yu’s spirit was lifted. He hurriedly asked, "Lei Leian, you say you know?"

Lei Leian hummed in affirmation, saying, "I know of a place where one can find this traceable and concrete Power of Rules. Ada, do you not know? The legendary ’Tears of Timis.’"

Ada was taken aback and murmured, "The Tears of Timis?" In her eyes, there was a hint of realization, but mostly confusion. It seemed that the term sounded familiar, as if she had heard it before, but she had no concept of what the "Tears of Timis" were.

Su Yu hurriedly asked, "Lei Leian, what is this ’Tears of Timis’?" Even she, was haunted by the pain akin to a thousand arrows piercing her heart and at this moment was eager to find a solution.

Lei Leian said, "It originates from a legend. The legend states that the physical entity of this Black Iron World is ’Timis.’ The so-called rules can also be understood as ’Timis’. The ’Tears of Timis’ is the solitary tear shed by Timis, it is the purest Power of Rules in this world... While I don’t know whether the legend of Timis being the physical entity of Black Iron World is true or false, the ’Tears of Timis’ is indeed a real existence."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "Because, when I was little, I was bathed in these Tears of Timis."

Su Yu felt a tinge of surprise. She was even starting to wonder if Lei Leian and the "Black Iron Guardian" looked almost identical due to being soaked in these Tears of Timis?

Ada quickly asked, "Lei Leian, where can we find these Tears of Timis?"

Lei Leian said, "The place is not near here, and it’s considerably dangerous..." After pondering, she said, "Su Yu, come to ’Sky Main City.’ I will go with you; I am familiar with the route."

Su Yu hesitated a moment, but Ada asked, "Lei Leian, is that place very dangerous?"

"Yes, it is currently under the control of the ’White Tiger.’ However, as long as we don’t stir up trouble and merely go to find some ’Tears of Timis,’ there shouldn’t be any issues." After thinking, Lei Leian said, "Forget about it for now. Su Yu, you all come to ’Sky Main City’ first. I will get ready and then accompany you to find the Tears of Timis."

Su Yu felt a chill in her heart. This "Tears of Timis" place is under the control of the "White Tiger." She had heard the name "White Tiger" many times, but she never had a clear concept of it. She only vaguely knew it as a powerful and terrifying force that covers the whole world. Moreover, it had been continuously pursuing Kou Xiaowei. Fortunately, the "White Tiger’s" power in the area of the Black Iron City seemed relatively weak, and since Kou Xiaowei had been constantly changing her appearance, there had been almost no trouble caused by the "White Tiger" in recent days.

Although the location of the "Tears of Timis" was under the control of the "White Tiger," Su Yu was not excessively fearful. The curse set by the "Black Iron Guardian" Beth Finley on him and Qin Jiagui was not something a mere mortal could bear. After pondering for a moment, she decided to agree with Lei Leian.

Only then did a smile appear on Lei Leian’s face before her image disappeared before Su Yu.

Su Yu put away the City Lord’s seal and went to find Qin Jiagui.

Unexpectedly, Qin Jiagui was not enthusiastic about Su Yu’s quest to find the "Tears of Timis" to break the curse of the "Black Iron Guardian" Beth Finley. He mumbled: "The Black Iron Guardian once said that as long as we can step out of this world, we can break the curse on our bodies... Only by stepping out of this world can I find Ni Ping. This daily pain is not torture for me, but a reminder. It reminds me to step out of this world sooner, to find Ni Ping sooner."

Su Yu was stunned. He never expected that Qin Jiagui would rather endure daily torment to stimulate himself to step out of this world sooner, to go to where Yuan Niping was. This way of thinking was completely beyond Su Yu’s expectations.

"Su Yu, you go..." Qin Jiagui’s expression was somewhat gloomy. He muttered: "When Ni Ping was hurt that day, her heart was the most painful one, but I... Now I think about it, I was really a jerk. The pain I have now, I believe it is God’s punishment for me. Do you understand, Su Yu? Only this kind of pain can alleviate the guilt in my heart. All of this is because of my incompetence... It’s because of my incompetence that Ni Ping suffered so much pain."

"Sigh..." Su Yu reached out and gently patted Qin Jiagui’s shoulder. Seeing that he was willing to endure daily anguish to lighten his regret for Yuan Niping, Su Yu was speechless. After leaving Qin Jiagui’s place, Su Yu told Jin Fuhua about his plan to find a solution to the curse on his body and then left.

He didn’t tell Su Yun and Ma Ziye personally because he knew their personalities.

If Su Yun and Ma Ziye heard him mention going to find the "Tears of Timis," they would undoubtedly want to accompany him. But Su Yu remembered Lei Leian’s words about the location of the "Tears of Timis" being under the rule of the "White Tiger," which was dangerous. Because of Yuan Niping’s incident, Su Yu learned a valuable lesson. He didn’t want to take the girls to places that might harbor unknown dangers until they have enough strength to protect themselves.

As for Lei Leian, ignoring her Seventh Order strength, just the fact that she is the City Lord of the "Sky Main City," with her extensive connections and powerful backing, makes her incomparable to others.

After briefly explaining to Jin Fuhua, Su Yu secretly activated the "City Lord’s Seal" and left the "Black Iron City". When he appeared again, he was under the statue of the Demon God beneath the "Sky Main City".

Next to the statue of the Demon God, the round fountain was still continuously spraying water. At a distance, a group of men and women in blue robes were standing sternly on one side.

In this "Sky Main City", those in blue robes are ordinary power wielders, while those in white robes hold higher status.

Having visited the "Sky Main City" many times, Su Yu had a general understanding of these divisions.

When Su Yu suddenly appeared here, several men and women in blue robes quickly approached him. Even as they were about to question him, Lei Leian’s voice was already in the air: "Su Yu, you’ve arrived? Come directly up."

Having heard Lei Leian’s voice, the few in blue robes were taken aback and respectfully backed away, no longer daring to question Su Yu.

Su Yu chuckled slightly. He knew that as the current City Lord, Lei Leian could monitor every corner of the "Sky Main City". She would know as soon as he arrived.

He quickly reached the square in front of the palace via the dragon-shaped jade stone staircase in the center.

At the square, Lei Leian was already there waiting for him in her rather plain tight-fitting white clothes.

Su Yu flashed a smile, looking at her. Now, Lei Leian was not dressed in her usual magnificent, noble robe, but in a simple uniform. She no longer exuded an imposing, noble aura, but seemed more lively. This added a few points of friendliness and adorability to Lei Leian.

"Why are you looking at me like that? Have you never seen me dress like this before?" Lei Leian blinked her beautiful eyes playfully. Seeing Su Yu scrutinizing her, she became a little embarrassed.

Su Yu nodded and said, "Indeed, it is quite unusual. Are we ready to go now?"

Lei Leian replied, "The place we’re going to isn’t suitable for conspicuous dresses, hence this simple attire. I’ve prepared everything necessary and have informed them. Let’s go. We’ll head to ’Star Moon City’ first." As she spoke, she threw out a teleportation scroll. Quickly, beams of light rose, enveloping her and Su Yu. (To be continued...)
