Chapter 624: 479

"What?" Caught off guard, Su Yu was startled. Immediately following, a streak of golden light descended from the sky, abruptly enveloping the entire Black Iron City. The terrifying aura, shaking the earth and startling the heavens, was so oppressive that everyone within Black Iron City was immobilized.

While Su Yu and Lei Leian turned pale, they saw the golden light retracting instantly and soon, golden wings fluttering, and stepping on golden rays of light, a giant man, as tall as ten meters as if made from pure gold, appeared before them.

With a pair of golden wings on his back and a head of an eagle, Su Yu had never imagined that just after he’d thought of this golden eagle-headed man, the man himself would actually appear before him in an instant. The coincidence left Su Yu dumbfounded, his mouth agape, almost unable to speak.

Since observing him once in the Atlantis Ruins on that fateful day of trials, Su Yu had never encountered this golden eagle-headed man again. He was totally unprepared for their meeting at this hour, the man appearing before them without any prior warning.

Almost everyone in Black Iron City was enveloped by a force, immobilising them completely. Among them, the young girl Feng’er’s face betrayed signs of struggle. Meanwhile, the face of an adjacent wooden figure also bore strange and grave expressions.

This golden eagle-headed man, upon his arrival, fluttered his wings and quickly folded them back. His divine eyes swept over the wooden figure and little girl Feng’er.

"The Undying Spirit?" The golden eagle-headed man seemed slightly taken aback and gave the wooden figure an extra glance. The wooden figure chuckled dryly a couple of times, but he was no match for this imposing figure. His body was now only a head, and he had no strength to resist. He chucked a bit but remained silent.

The golden eagle-headed man did not pay any more attention to the wooden figure. It seemed like they both kept a certain distance and caution. He stretched out his hand, suddenly picking Ada up from Su Yu’s shoulder. He frowned slightly. "You’re growing so slowly. You’re only in your fifth stage of growth, little one. I was really hoping that you’d mature a bit faster." Ada landed in his hand, behaving itself, and did not utter a word.

Although Ada seemed to despise the golden eagle-headed man when the eagle wasn’t looking, Ada dared not say anything impertinent in his presence.

The golden eagle-headed man tossed Ada back to Su Yu, but his gaze fell on Lei Leian. Suddenly, he seemed to smile soundlessly. He said in a low voice, "Your parents are in serious trouble. Today, at sunset, could be the day they die."

"No—" Lei Leian trembled all over. Involuntarily, she screamed in desperation. She tried to rush forward, but no matter how hard she struggled, she was unable to move. Her eyes welled up with tears.

Just as shocked, Su Yu stared at the golden eagle-headed man. How could this person know everything? And his attitude suggested he was not lying.

"This battle is quite a sensation. How could I not know of it?" The golden eagle-headed man seemed to understand Su Yu’s thoughts and explained it for him. After a moment’s pause, he suddenly asked, "Human, would you like to assist her parents?"

Su Yu wasn’t sure the meaning behind his question. Even though he wanted to help, he couldn’t. But he instinctively nodded. The golden eagle-headed man raised a golden finger and calmly said, "Hand over the Divine Skull. I’ll help them. Although they might lose their chance of advancing, their lives will be saved."

Su Yu was shocked. So, the sudden arrival of this golden eagle-headed man was for his Divine Skull? Apparently, it all made sense. Back in the ocean battles, when the desiccated skeleton used the Divine Skull, defeated the Eight-Legged God, and defied Giant Hand and Foot, this golden eagle-headed man must have noticed, hence his visit.

With a hint of hesitation, Lei Leian looks anxiously at him, her eyes full of hope. Su Yu’s heart jolts, suddenly remembering something, he swiftly retrieves the Netherworld Skull from his storage ring, saying, "Fine, I hope that you will keep your promise, to assist the parents of Leileian, to help them overcome their hardship."

The Golden Hawk-man also didn’t expect Su Yu to be so direct. He took the Netherworld Skull, held it in his hand, and gently wiped it clean. He studied the divine skull in front of him, and even he, the Golden Hawk-man, seemed slightly agitated.

He examined the "Netherworld Skull" closely. The Golden Hawk-man fell quiet, lost in thought. After a while, he let out a long sigh, then threw his head back and laughed uproariously. With his laughter, the sky darkened, and one could see the wild Power of Rules converging in the center. The clouds hung oppressively low, and the traces of the Azure Sky Giant Hand were vaguely discernible.

"I see, I see... I finally understand what was wrong with my skull... hahaha... this skull to me, only has referential value..." The Golden Hawk-man, still laughing, returned the Netherworld Skull to Su Yu. Su Yu was momentarily stunned, anxious, he said, "What about Lei Leian’s parents..."

"Rest assured, young lad..." The Golden Hawk-man looked at Su Yu, a rare smile on his face. He seemed in high spirits. He suddenly let out a loud wailing: "Too long in silence, it’s time for a change, the structure of the ten races has been maintained for too long --"

With this loud wailing, terrifying energy sprayed outwards. At the same time, in the sky above, the Azure Sky Giant Hand finally came crashing down. The Golden Hawk-man’s Golden Wings flexed, and suddenly turned into a golden arrow, shooting into the sky, striking the Azure Sky Giant Hand. Almost simultaneously, the Azure Sky Giant Hand shattered into pieces. A rain of blood followed, pouring down like a torrent.

The blood rain was horrifying, the entire "Black Iron City" seemed to have been baptized in a rainfall of blood, and the city was flowing with rivers of blood. This bloody scene seemed to foreshadow the beginning of a terrifying upheaval.

Su Yu and Lei Leian stood dumbfounded, watching a dreadful scene unfold in the sky. They saw the Golden Hawk-man transform into a golden arrow, instantly shattering the Azure Sky Giant Hand. This shocking scene was beyond description.

Su Yu suddenly had a thought that upon their reunion, the Golden Hawk-man seemed even more powerful and terrifying. He said that the Netherworld Skull was only a reference for him. This statement clearly indicated that he must have developed a Golden Skull of his own. Therefore, the divine skull only held investigative value for him. Su Yu vaguely felt that the Golden Hawk-man’s previous high spirits were because he had obtained certain information he wanted from the Netherworld Skull which was why he seemed so ecstatic. This also suggested...

The next time they meet, the Golden Hawk-Man would be even stronger, beyond imagination.

The Azure Sky Giant Hand shattered instantly, and fresh blood filled Black Iron City. The Golden Hawk-Man had already vanished into thin air. His appearance and departure felt almost miraculous.

"Su Yu, thank you --" Lei Leian snapped back to reality, suddenly throwing herself onto Su Yu, crying as she embraced him. They were both drenched in blood, but right now Lei Leian didn’t care. She was deeply moved by Su Yu’s resolute action of taking out the Netherworld Skull to save her parents.

Su Yu responded with a wry smile, attributing his swift decision to retrieve the Netherworld Skull to the realization that the Golden Hawk-Man was far too powerful for him to resist. If he truly wanted the Netherworld Skull, he could simply take it by force and Su Yu’s consent would be of no consequence. Given this, why should Su Yu deny him? All he could do was meekly hand over the Netherworld Skull. It wasn’t entirely due to his desire to save Lei Leian’s parents.

Listening to Lei Leian’s gratitude and tears, Su Yu felt slightly ashamed. From the Golden Hawk-Man’s words, he deduced that Lei Leian’s parents were indeed in danger. And from his concluding words, he sensed that this world, or even the world above this world, might undergo a drastic change.

"Is the era of great chaos... approaching..." Covered in blood, Su Yu looked at the dreadful sight of rivers of blood throughout the Black Iron City and muttered to himself.
