Chapter 662: Chapter 508 Aztec Ruins

When Su Yu led a thousand people to the outskirts of Black Iron City, he found that a large number of people had gathered. These people had come from various cities to celebrate the completion of the Black Iron City. There were people like the Great General from General City, Nian Nujiao, the City Lord of Hundred Flowers City, the Dwarf King from Earth’s Core City, and the City Lord and his son from Bloodline City etc. This took Su Yu by surprise, but he also felt somewhat delighted and hurriedly invited these people into Black Iron City.

That night, of course, a grand banquet was held. The festive atmosphere could hardly be described in terms of pen and ink. What surprised Su Yu the most was that at the opening of the feast, Lei Leian arrived with a group of barefoot men and women in white robes.

All the city lords bowed to greet her, and Su Yu also came forward to welcome her.

After not seeing Lei Leian for ten days, Su Yu sighed softly when he saw her again. He noticed that Lei Leian’s aura had changed. Even though they hadn’t seen each other for just ten days, Lei Leian’s aura had already shown signs of reaching the Level 7 peak. How could her strength have increased so quickly?

Lei Leian seemed to notice Su Yu’s confusion, and she blinked at him and smiled without saying a word. It wasn’t until most of the guests had dispersed that Lei Leian pulled Su Yu and Woody into Su Yu’s palace. She then laughed and said, "Woody, I have a piece of good news for you. I have a little clue about the whereabouts of your other bodies."

"Really?" Even Woody, who was usually careless, immediately opened his eyes wide and showed a surprised expression on his face.

"Of course! But don’t get too excited, it’s just a small clue," Lei Leian said.

Su Yu sat down, brewed a cup of tea for Lei Leian, handed it to her and said, "Sit down and tell us. What kind of news is it?"

Lei Leian looked around the palace once before lowering her voice, and said, "Su Yu, do you remember the lord of Great Landlord City?"

Su Yu nodded, he naturally remembered the incident where they had encountered Anhuan, the city lord of Great Landlord City, on their way to find the Tears of Timis. They had entered the Demonic Forest and found a shrine ruin with an Imperial Coffin that sealed Woody’s head. Anhuan had wanted to control the little girl Feng’er to threaten them, but was unexpectedly killed by the terrifying power within Feng’er. Su Yu then acquired a piece of black iron shard and a map, which he used to unlock the Imperial Coffin and release Woody’s head.

Lei Leian said, "I finally figured it out; Great Landlord City is under the rule of the Loulan Giant City among the Ten Great Giant Cities. I also investigated the history of Anhuan, the city lord of Great Landlord City. The most peculiar fact is that he had entered the Demonic Forest ten years ago. Among the group of people, only he managed to escape the Demonic Forest alive. Before entering the Demonic Forest, he had visited the Aztec Ruins."

Su Yu frowned slightly and said, "So you suspect that he obtained the map from the Aztec Ruins, and then used the map to enter the Demonic Forest? Are you saying that we might discover something if we visit the Aztec Ruins?"

Lei Leian nodded and said, "I have carefully investigated Anhuan, and the only suspicious places are the Aztec Ruins and the Demonic Forest. Before entering the Aztec Ruins, he seldom went out, and had never entered the Demonic Forest. However, once he incidentally passed by the Aztec Ruins, he hurriedly went to the Demonic Forest. Therefore, this is indeed suspicious. We have been to the Demonic Forest before, so the only place left to visit is the Aztec Ruins. If there are any clues there, Woody, you should be able to sense them, right?"

Upon hearing Lei Leian’s analysis, Woody, though he could not be certain that the Aztec Ruins were linked to the whereabouts of the other parts of his body, believed that this was the only opportunity they had. There was no other choice except to give it a shot, and it seemed like it was necessary to visit the Aztec Ruins.

Su Yu also nodded slightly and said, "Since we don’t have any other clues for now, I believe we must go there and see if we can find anything."

Lei Leian said, "The Aztec Ruins and the Demonic Forest are not far apart. Both are governed by the White Tiger Giant City. If we are really going there, we must be careful."

Su Yu had heard from Lei Leian that White Tiger Giant City was the most powerful among the Ten Great Giant Cities, and it was said that an Immortal had once emerged among the races behind the White Tiger Giant City. This was the one race among the ten that should not be offended. Therefore, even Lei Leian reminded them to be extra careful.

"By the way, Lei Leian, how did you progress so quickly? It seems like you are about to reach the Seventh Order Peak Realm," Su Yu asked curiously.

Lei Leian smiled and said, "I have participated in some experiences in the Ocean Main City, so that’s why my level has increased. I want to catch up with you. In this way, I can help you in half a year’s time, and beat that so-called Nine Pig God of the Maya into a real pig."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu couldn’t help but laugh. He then found out that Lei Leian had misread Maya’s Nine Pillar God as Nine Pig God. However, he was secretly amazed by Lei Leian’s talent. He remembered Ada once saying that Lei Leian could be a rare genius born with all seven apertures opened. For such talents, as long as they absorb enough energy, they can naturally evolve. The understanding and breakthroughs were straightforward to them and no extra effort was needed. Lei Leian was obviously such a rare genius. From her demeanor, it seemed that reaching the Eighth Stage was just a matter of time and depended on how much effort she puts into evolving. Unlike Ouyang Nuo, who desperately wanted to evolve but couldn’t do it however hard he tried.

After scheduling a time with Lei Leian, they decided to visit the Aztec ruins together in three days. After confirming the plan, Lei Leian then left Black Iron City with a smile.

The wooden man could hardly hide his excitement upon receiving the news. Su Yu, who had already reached the peak of the eighth stage and was temporarily unable to make a breakthrough, naturally wanted to accompany the wooden man if there might be a trace of clues about the whereabouts of the other parts of the wooden man’s body.

After sending Lei Leian off, just as Su Yu was about to retrieve the "Dark Heart" for study, Kou Xiaowei suddenly came to see him.

Su Yu put the "Dark Heart" that he’d just taken out back into the storage ring, smiling, "Xiao Wei, what do you need?" He was a little curious, what did this little girl want?

Kou Xiaowei hesitated, then said, "Big brother, you always ask me about Ji Baihu’s affairs. I haven’t said anything because the time wasn’t right."

Su Yu smiled at Kou Xiaowei, "So is it time now?"

Kou Xiaowei nodded and said, "Anyway, Brother, since you’ve offended the Nine Pillar Gods of the Maya, there’s no big deal if you add White Tiger to it."

Su Yu was astounded, and then burst into laughter. The little girl’s words made him rather speechless.

Kou Xiaowei gave a faint smile before continuing, "Actually, what I told you isn’t because I want your help against White Tiger, it’s just that you have a half-year agreement with the Maya Clan, and I thought... this could possibly be of help to you."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu’s curiosity piqued. "Come and sit, Xiao Wei. What’s going on? I’ve always been curious about your grudge with White Tiger Giant City. Why are they trying to kill you?"

Kou Xiaowei turned solemn upon hearing his words, and her face displayed a hint of desolation. She bowed her head and after quite a while, finally said, "Big brother, the truth is... my father was once the leader of the ’White Tiger Giant City’."

Su Yu was taken aback, and looked at Kou Xiaowei in surprise. If Kou Xiaowei’s father was the former leader of White Tiger Giant City, why is Kou Xiaowei being hunted down by White Tiger? Could it be...

Su Yu stammered, "Could it be that there was a rebellion within White Tiger Giant City and so your father... you were hunted down?"

Kou Xiaowei shook her head and sighed. Though she was still young, her demeanor was as mature as an adult.

"Actually, the root of everything... lies in the revelation my father accidentally discovered. A shocking secret." Kou Xiaowei spoke gravely and seriously.

Su Yu remarked, "A shocking secret? What secret?"

Kou Xiaowei glanced around and whispered, "Brother, you have to promise not to tell anyone."

Su Yu nodded.

It was then that Kou Xiaowei solemnly took a piece of paper from her bosom—no, half a piece of paper—and handed it to Su Yu.

Su Yu was thrilled with anticipation. Could this shocking secret be written on this piece of paper? Eagerly accepting it, he immediately noticed the bizarre quality of the paper. Its texture was peculiar, something he had never seen before.

But, he didn’t pay much attention to it and instead examined the content of the paper.

This piece of paper had been torn in half, and only the right side remained. Written on it were strange numbers that Su Yu could recognize, some equal signs, and a series of insignificant numbers. Finally, there was an unfamiliar symbol. Puzzled, Su Yu looked up at Kou Xiaowei.

"Xiao Wei, is this half piece of paper the shocking secret you were talking about?" Su Yu was somewhat amused. It wasn’t just he who could make heads nor tails from it, Ada, who was resting on his shoulder, also couldn’t understand the strange numbers on the paper. The only peculiar thing about the document, perhaps, was the unrecognized symbol that looked like a charm.
