Chapter 653: Chapter 501: The Gate of Space

The Maya Pillar Gods departed; Xixi, appearing like a little girl, led the other silvery humanoid creatures to leave as well. From a distance, Xixi glanced at Su Yu, who was also a child, with curiosity in her eyes. She couldn’t believe that it was this child who had invoked the descent of the Ten Pillar Gods.

In the current Upper Realm, Su Yu, from the Black Iron World, had already gained quite a reputation. Even though Su Yu hadn’t stepped out of this world and into the Upper Realm, his name was already circulating everywhere there.

Undoubtedly, his was the most sensational name from the "Black Iron World" to hit the "Upper Realm" in nearly a century.

The Maya Clan members retreated completely, and the "Eye" in the sky closed too. The radiant Black Iron Administrator also vanished soundlessly. Only those giant hands remained suspended in the void, seemingly hinting for the golden skeleton to leave this world soon, but without directly striking it down.

It seemed that the monstrous Rule Hands were in dread of the golden skeleton.

"Big brother, I’m leaving..." With all enemies having finally retreated and a promised respite of six months for Su Yu, the little girl Feng’er showed a wistful expression on her face.

Looking at Feng’er with a complex expression, Su Yu was stunned to discover that his life was saved by her influence today. She was indeed the pet of the golden skeleton’s owner. This realization brought a touch of melancholy and helplessness to Su Yu, but he had no choice. This was the relationship that allowed him to survive, at least within the next half-year, the Mayans would not bother him again.

"Feng’er..." Su Yu wanted to say something, but the golden skeleton impatiently said, "Go... your... master... is... waiting... for... you..." It then led Feng’er towards the sky, each step it took seemed to levitate as if stepping on an invisible ladder.

"Big brother---" Feng’er couldn’t help but look back and call out. She had always been hesitant to awaken because she vaguely understood that the moment she did, it would be time for her to leave this world. Yet today, for Su Yu’s sake, she had no choice but to awaken, inevitably saying goodbye to him -- perhaps forever.

Tears welled up in Feng’er’s eyes. As far as her memory went back, Su Yu had always been good to her. In her pure and innocent heart, Su Yu was her only family. She didn’t have complex thoughts. She wished only to always hold onto Su Yu’s clothes, wanting to be his little tail that he could always turn around and find.

"Big brother..." Feng’er didn’t want to leave and broke into tears. She had the premonition that once she left, she’d never see Su Yu again.

Su Yu took a couple of steps forward, then stopped. Looking up, the golden skeleton was already leading Feng’er to the sky. A dark spatial door appeared before them, and the two figures entered it.

"Big brother---" Feng’er screamed, but was soon swallowed by the spatial door, disappearing into the void. Su Yu wanted to shout something, but felt his throat choked up. He could only silently watch as she vanished into thin air, his heart heavy as if weighed down by a large stone.

With the departure of the golden skeleton and Feng’er, all powers of rule over the Ice City dissipated. The unknown skeleton gave the Netherworld skull back to Su Yu and sank back into hibernation within the Ice City. All enemies had vanished, and the sky above the Ice City was bright again.

Everything had returned to peace, but Su Yu felt a sense of suffocation, his heart felt hollowed.

It wasn’t until the sky had cleared and all outsiders had disappeared that everyone in the Ice City gradually came back to their senses.

The battle had not caused any casualties on their side, but from Xixi’s appearance with her silver humanoid creatures, to the golden Eagle-Headed Creature, the Maya Ten Pillar Gods, Ao Lei, the "Eye" in the sky, and finally the golden skeleton -- all these were so shocking that everyone was left numb, unable to come back to reality.

Su Yu remained silent. The events had been too shocking. When everything finally settled down, people felt a void in their hearts. Although there were no casualties among the people in the Skeleton Ice City, the Ice City had suffered great damage. Luckily, the "Skeleton Ice City" possessed an incredible capacity for self-repair and was now undertaking the process automatically. Layer by layer of ice spread out, all collapsed ice sculptures and buildings emerged again, and the cracked ice slowly conjoined.

The Maya Gods were gone. For half a year, they would not approach Su Yu unless provoked. Meanwhile, Feng’er had left. To date, no one knew who Feng’er’s master was or the true identity of the golden skeleton.

Feng Ming, holding her scepter, took a step forward, bowed to Su Yu in respect. As the City Lord of the City of Ocean Main City, Feng Ming had bowed to Su Yu, who at this point seemed just like a five- or six-year-old child. This showed how much she respected Su Yu. In Feng Ming’s eyes, Su Yu was no longer a lowly outsider from the Black Iron World. He was someone who could cause tremors in the Upper Realm, even targeted by the Maya Pillar God directly. Such prestige, unsurpassed by even the lords of the Ten Great Giant Cities, let alone the Black Iron World, would still be incredible news in the Upper Realm.

Su Yu paid his respects, Feng Ming began to speak with a smile, "I won’t say much to express my gratitude, Su Yu. We’re about to leave." As she said this, she took Lei Leian’s hand.

Now that the Maya Pillar God and Ao Lei had made peace, they naturally wouldn’t take action against Lei Leian again. Feng Ming proposed to leave. She had many matters to attend to in "Ocean Main City", she couldn’t stay here forever, and her mission was already complete.

Su Yu nodded. Lei Leian looked at Su Yu with a hint of reluctance in her beautiful eyes, "Auntie, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Feng Ming said, "There are still many things to deal with. Although we have temporarily agreed to reconcile..." Just as she said this, her scepter suddenly began to vibrate.

Feng Ming lifted her scepter with a slight start. The crystal light began to spread, and soon it condensed into the form of a person.

This person spoke with a cheerful laugh, "Feng Ming, Lei Leian. The two of you are together, I see."

Lei Leian recognized the voice and she snorted coldly, paying it no mind. She knew the person to whom this voice belonged: the current master of the "Sky Reaching Giant City", Lance’s father. But of course, true power in the "Sky Reaching Giant City" was in the hands of the Ancestor.

Feng Ming saw this figure emerge out of nowhere without any exception at all. She casually said, "The last time I went to the City of Seven Towers to find you, it seemed you were out?"

This figure sighed, "Yes, I had some urgent matters to attend to at that time. I only rushed back now. As soon as I heard you were looking for me, I contacted you immediately. I just got the news recently. Alas, it’s a pity that we can’t really help with this matter. Oh, by the way, the damaged ’Sky Main City’ and ’Black Iron City’, I’ve sent people to repair them. They should be fully restored soon. Lei Leian, why not return to the Holy Land first? The Ancestor just came out of seclusion. He misses you a lot."

Lei Leian couldn’t suppress her anger. She never expected that these cowards who’ve been hiding themselves when she and her father were in danger were now coming out to show goodwill after the crisis had been resolved. What was this? Did they think they were fools? Lei Leian was almost incited to burst out swearing, but she was abruptly restrained by Feng Ming yanking on her arm.

Lei Leian looked at Feng Ming in surprise, only to see Feng Ming shaking her head, motioning her to be quiet. Then, Feng Ming chuckled and said, "Is it so? Many thanks for your kind intentions, sir. For now, Lei Leian will be returning to the ’Ocean Main City’ with me and won’t be visiting the Ancestor in the Holy Land."

Lei Leian became anxious, she couldn’t understand why Feng Ming was so polite to this crystal figure. If it had been her, she would have loved to slap him. Why would she put up with such a two-faced person?

The crystal figure sighed, "That’s fine too. I understand Lei Leian might be holding a grudge against us. In fact, how could we involve ourselves in such a high-level conflict? Feng Ming, Lei Leian is now in your care. The Ancestor and I are both quite worried about her. But now the storm has passed, that’s good. Speaking of which, is the City Lord of Black Iron City, Su Yu, also with you?"

Su Yu didn’t expect his name to be brought up by the crystal figure. He frowned slightly. Feng Ming glanced at him before replying, "Yes, do you need to speak to him, sir?"

"No, I just want to personally express my gratitude to him. This time, we were unable to lend a hand which is rather embarrassing. The Ancestor also wishes to personally thank him. He’s a benefactor of our clan. We’re currently doing our utmost to repair his ’Black Iron City’, I believe it will be fully restored soon. There’s no need for him to worry."

Su Yu smiled faintly. He was not Feng Ming. He had neither the inclination nor the time to fake courtesy with these people, nor was there a need for it, he didn’t engage further, merely shaking his head at Feng Ming.

Having noticed this, Feng Ming smiled and said, "He appreciates your good intentions, sir. However, there are still many things he needs to deal with here. I’m afraid there won’t be time for him to leave."

"So that’s how it is..." The voice of the crystal figure didn’t carry any anger, but was interspersed with smiles, "Feng Ming, try to visit the Holy Land when you can..." Then, it gradually disappeared into thin air.

Not until the crystal figure had disappeared did Lei Leian finally lose her restraint and exclaimed, "Auntie, why are you so polite to that guy? When we were in danger, we didn’t see him anywhere. What’s he doing popping out now?" (To be continued. To find out what happens next, please visit www.qidian.com. More Chapters are available and remember, support the author and support legal reading!)
