Each with Their Own Reasons

"Nether Clan?"

Su Chengyu spoke in surprise. He had very little contact with the Nether Clan and naturally assumed that the differences in appearance between the Nether Clan and the Human Clan were fixed characteristics.

Yu Ming gave him a disdainful look and said, "Earth Immortal level Demon Clan, can you really tell any difference just by their aura and appearance?"

"I can’t."

Su Chengyu admitted, understanding Yu Ming’s point.

That blonde woman clearly used some special means to make herself look completely like an ordinary person.

He guessed that even Yu Ming, that is, only during their combat, was able to confirm this.

However, he quickly realized something was amiss and turned to Yu Ming, "If she is from the Nether Clan, why would she be stationed here?"

"That’s what baffles me the most."

Yu Ming’s brows were tightly knit together. She had been pondering over this issue ever since she learned of the woman’s identity, yet even now she had not come to a definitive answer.

Images of that Bei Luo Soldier flashed across Su Chengyu’s mind, and a bold idea emerged.

"Yu Ming Saint Envoy, do you think there’s a possibility that the Tower of Eternal Winter has already fallen under the control of the Nether Clan?"

Su Chengyu’s words made Yu Ming instantly lift her head, her eyes filled with shock as she looked at Su Chengyu, "Do you even realize what you’re suggesting? That would mean the Demon Suppression Tower has become a stronghold for the Demon Clan! Such a thing is nearly impossible!"

"But the Tower of Eternal Winter has never been the Demon Suppression Tower."

Su Chengyu’s statement struck at the very heart of the issue.

If it were before arriving at the Tower of Eternal Winter, Su Chengyu’s thoughts would naturally be the same as Yu Ming’s.

But after coming here and hearing the words and judgments of the Heaven-Mending Stone, Su Chengyu understood that the tower itself was never enough to trap a true Earth Immortal.

To truly imprison Earth Immortal level beings, there must be someone with even greater strength overseeing the imprisonment.

If the one overseeing has sufficient strength, the Tower of Eternal Winter could indeed be as impregnable as the Demon Suppression Tower.

But what if the one overseeing is weaker than the one being imprisoned?

Without a doubt, upon entering the tower, the strength of the imprisoned would be weakened, and the pressure of being on an away field would make the cost of turning the tables even higher.

But since they are under someone else’s control, there lies the possibility of breaking free.

This is entirely different from how Xia Country’s Demon Suppression Tower operates.

Su Chengyu’s words ultimately silenced Yu Ming.

As a Demon Slayer Department Emissary, she naturally knew what kind of place Xia Country’s Demon Slayer Tower was.

In Xia Country, once Demon Clan members enter the Demon Slayer Tower, there is hardly any chance of escape, even if someone secretly assists them, even if the other party’s strength is nearly that of an Earth Immortal.

As long as one is deemed as suppressed upon entering the Demon Suppression Tower, the moment they leave the tower, even if they do not die, they would be severely injured.

The Green Fox of the past is the best example.

Otherwise, how could the once-Demon Monarch be suppressed by the newly appointed Saint Envoy Red Flame?

"Su Chengyu, the situation with the Tower of Eternal Winter may be more complicated than we thought."

Yu Ming’s expression flickered. After listening to Su Chengyu’s analysis and recalling the words the blonde woman had said to her, Yu Ming felt even more that something was amiss.

If the Tower of Eternal Winter truly had become a possession of the Nether Clan, then what situation would his mother, the Nether Clan Red-robed High Priest who was imprisoned here, be in now?

After all, some of the Nether Clan members here had been personally sent in by her.

Su Chengyu had no idea what was on You Ming’s mind, but realizing that something was amiss, he spoke up, "Indeed something isn’t right. If the upper levels really are where the Nether Clan is gathering, then Eternal Winter City..."

You Ming looked up at Su Chengyu and immediately grasped his meaning, "Are you saying that Qian Jun might also be in danger?"

Su Chengyu shook his head, "I don’t know, but since the City Lord of Eternal Winter visited the Tower of Eternal Winter before we got here, it’s highly probable that he’s already in league with the Nether Clan."

"Bam Alliance..."

You Ming once again mentioned the name of this strange alliance.

The many accidents happening within the Tower of Eternal Winter made it hard for You Ming not to associate all this with the Bam Alliance.

"What do we do now?"

Su Chengyu turned to look at You Ming. Although he was the one who rescued You Ming, and despite the fact You Ming was still in a dire state, in terms of rank, You Ming was still half a level above him.

However, what Su Chengyu didn’t expect was for You Ming to shake his head with a somewhat lost expression and say, "I don’t know."

"Yu Ming Saint Envoy?"

Su Chengyu asked, puzzled.

You Ming bit her lip and spoke frankly, "I’m sorry, I know this is irresponsible, but I really don’t know what to do next. The upper floors are likely a gathering place for the Nether Clan, and it’s very possible that there might be members of the rank of the Red Robed High Priest. The cost of entering rashly is just..."

"You still want to go and see for yourself, don’t you?"

Su Chengyu interrupted You Ming’s words.

You Ming lowered her head, unable to deny his words.

With an answer already in his heart, Su Chengyu stood up and looked at the great doors leading to the upper floors in the distance, took a deep breath, and said, "Then let’s go take a look."

"You’re coming too?"

You Ming was surprised; she thought Su Chengyu would have been content just letting her go in.

"What else? Leave you alone and I’d be able to escape from here?"

Su Chengyu asked with a smile, then continued, "Don’t misunderstand, I’m not concerned about your personal affairs, it’s just that I realize even if we tried to flee downwards, we wouldn’t be able to break through these tower walls without leaving the middle level, and the paths to the lower levels must have already been completely guarded by that member of the Nether Clan. Even a rational consideration tells us that the only way out is to keep going upwards."

Su Chengyu analyzed the situation calmly, justifying why he had made such a decision.

"But the upper levels could also be a death trap."

You Ming poured cold water on the idea without mincing words, especially considering Su Chengyu’s earlier speculation.

This Tower of Eternal Winter, which was supposed to suppress the Nether Clan, had already become a gathering place for them.

"If death awaits both in front and behind, wouldn’t it be better to give you a favor with the current? Besides..."

Su Chengyu paused in his speech, pondering whether to speak out some thoughts to You Ming directly.

"You have your own reasons as well?"

You Ming’s interjection made Su Chengyu feel relieved; he nodded and said, "I can’t hide anything from your eyes, can I?"

"Not surprised. Ever since you entered the Bei Luo Empire, you’ve been very stable emotionally, even when you saw an old acquaintance turn into that state in Linbei City, you didn’t overreact. But these past few days, something’s been off with you, to be precise, since the day before yesterday."

As a spectator, You Ming was clear-headed about her own affairs, but when it came to Su Chengyu’s matters, she, as a Saint Envoy, still had a very clear view.

Knowing he couldn’t hide it from her, Su Chengyu simply said, "The people from the Demonic Path have made moves against those close to me. In the Capital City."
