Chapter 1050: Chapter 1050 Volunteering

The Second-Class Monster Emperor, Su Chengyu did not take him seriously.

What Su Chengyu was truly worried about was the person scheming all this from behind the scenes.

These cultivators might have been lured here for the Wasteland Sky Halberd, but the person planning all this was very likely targeting Su Chengyu himself.

"Are those people Mr. Su’s enemies?"

Hua Qian, who had already noticed that those people were all targeting Su Chengyu, asked.

Su Chengyu glanced at her indifferently, "What’s the matter? Regretting asking for my help?"

"No, this servant absolutely does not!"

Hua Qian paled with fright and immediately knelt down again, fearful of angering Su Chengyu once more.

"Talk less, do more. Tell me everything about the Hua family."

Although the potential threat had already arrived at Laisong Island, Su Chengyu had no intention of escaping from this place, holding the belief that what is meant to be a blessing will be a blessing and what is meant to be a disaster cannot be avoided.

With the enemy hidden and himself exposed, rash actions would only make him more likely to fall into a passive situation. It was better to stay put and see what their next move would be.

Afterwards, Hua Qian told Su Chengyu everything he knew.

The Hua family was the largest powerhouse on Laisong Island. Owing to the Dragon Carp, many martial arts practitioners were willing to join it.

Now, although the position of Family Head had been usurped by Hua Yingrong, who treated the Dragon Carp as mere tools, the value of the Dragon Carp’s tears was no longer cherished. Under Hua Yingrong’s management over the past decades, the Hua family had become even more powerful than before.

The ronin under their command were at least of Marquis level, with numerous Martial Kings, and they also had four Martial Saints sitting in important positions. They were a first-rate power in Liuli Country now.

"No cultivators?"

Su Chengyu found it odd and asked in confusion.

Hua Qian nodded, "For some reason, Hua Yingrong seems not to trust cultivators, so even when cultivators of the Golden Core Realm come to pledge loyalty, he does not wish to accept them, only treating them with courtesy."

"Hmm, I understand."

Su Chengyu spoke calmly, understanding that it was very likely because of the Real Black Dragon.

"What about him?"

"Fourth level of the Nascent Soul Realm."

"He is indeed a few notches higher than the Real Black Dragon, no wonder the Real Black Dragon couldn’t locate this fellow afterwards."

The Real Black Dragon, fearing death and loving life, naturally would not target someone stronger than himself.

"Mr. Su?"

"It’s nothing, continue."

Hearing what Hua Qian said, Hua Qian breathed a sigh of relief, as the other party did not alter their decision because of Hua Yingrong’s strength.

After explaining the Hua family’s power structure, Hua Qian informed Su Chengyu of several key locations belonging to the Hua family, indicating that those places might have what he needed.

"Mr. Su... You’re not a local, are you?"

Watching Su Chengyu thinking about his next move, Hua Qian couldn’t help but ask.

Su Chengyu glanced at him and asked, "Indeed I’m not, is there a problem?"

"It’s like this: as far as I know, Hua Yingrong somehow made connections somewhere and has been paying tribute with batches of Dragon Carp’s tear pearls to the Royal Family for the past two years. If you truly kill Hua Yingrong, you might face considerable trouble."

"Oh? Are you advising me to back down?"

Su Chengyu couldn’t help but laugh.

Hua Qian immediately knelt to the ground and explained, "This servant only wishes to avoid any misunderstandings with Mr. Su after the matter is concluded."

Seeing Hua Qian like this, Su Chengyu gave a light chuckle, knowing she was now thoroughly afraid of him.

A part of it might have been due to the attitude he had previously shown, but more likely it was the act of slaying the Demon Emperor that had completely deterred Hua Qian from scheming against him anymore.

Power, the disparity was too great. If it were Su Chengyu in such a situation, facing an Immortal, he wouldn’t dare to plan anything either.

No matter how meticulously you plot, the opponent could easily snuff you out with a mere thought. Being honest with such a person is the only wise choice a truly smart individual would make.

"Rest assured, I have it under control."

He was bound to make contact with the Liuli Royal Family sooner or later, and the True Dragon Reverse Scale among the Emperor’s Six Treasures was very important to him, even though the Six Treasures themselves meant little to him.

With the True Dragon Armor, he could easily extract the True Dragon Reverse Scale and then return the Heavenly Black Dragon Seal to the Royal Family to trade with them.

But of course, that was a matter for later.

Whether the Liuli Royal Family was worth cooperating with or not, Su Chengyu could use the affair with the Hua family to test the waters.

But for now...

Su Chengyu looked at the map of the Hua family’s terrain given by Hua Qian, thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "If we hadn’t shown up, what was your original plan to deal with that Martial King?"

Hua Qian lowered her eyes, "Not to hide anything from Mr. Su, but I have fled from the Hua family some time ago. During this time, I have already gathered a group of demons who hold grudges against the Hua family. Of course, these demons’ strengths are naturally far inferior compared to yours. And..."

"And most of them are after your Hua Tail’s Tear Pearls, right?"

Hua Qian nodded her head with a helpless and bitter smile, "Where there’s no benefit, people won’t get involved."

These demons may truly bear grievances against the Hua family, but who would want to take on a family as large as the Hua’s without any incentive?

"How many demons have you gathered, and what is their strength like?"

"There are five in total; three are Sixth-Rank Demon Generals."

Yu Yanshu at the side couldn’t believe what she heard. Even though she knew beforehand that Hua Qian had some helpers, she did not expect that as a Seventh-Rank Big Monster at the Foundation Establishment Stage, Hua Qian could gather such a force.

Su Chengyu glanced at her and said, "Your strength wasn’t merely at the level of a Big Monster before, was it?"

Hua Qian nodded bitterly, "My Dragon Carp clan, though producing pearls from tears causes no depletion, excessive production of pearl tears impacts our realm. Ever since my clan fell into Hua Yingrong’s hands, there are no longer even Demon Kings amongst us."

Su Chengyu felt a sense of poignancy upon hearing this; the True Dragon Bloodline was exceedingly rare.

The Dragon Carp belonged to the Ancient Relic Species, just like the Chaos Demon Ape and the Two-Headed Golden Lion.

But who could imagine that the Dragon Carp clan, which survived even the great changes of heaven and earth, ended up nearly extinct due to the petty desires of mortals.

"Don’t worry, I don’t consider myself particularly kind-hearted, but I definitely won’t enslave your clan like that."

Su Chengyu’s sudden words greatly pleased the Dragon Carp, and she immediately expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, Mr. Su, for your great kindness. Hua Qian is willing to stay by your side for life, to serve as a servant without any complaints."

"No need for that, let’s talk about it after the matter is concluded."

Looking at the terrain map of the Hua family given by Hua Qian, Su Chengyu narrowed his eyes and then said calmly, "Six passes, let your helpers take five of them."

"Tonight?"

Hua Qian was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Su Chengyu, who had just been through a battle, would be so eager to act.

"Yes," Su Chengyu nodded quietly, planning to head to the last pass himself.

The strength of Hua Yingrong was such that only Su Chengyu himself could handle it. Acting prematurely might expose himself, but with caution, he should be able to avoid revealing his full power outright.

However, as Su Chengyu was contemplating this, Yu Yanshu interjected, "Master, please allow Yan’er to go to the last pass."
