Chapter 232 Alliance (Part 1)
When Su Yu returned, everything was proceeding according to Luo Yu's plan, and the Sun and Moon Team indicated that they could hold talks with the person in charge of the Tang Sect.
What followed unfolded exactly as the script had been written, like a bizarre stage play. Both the audience and the actors were like puppets, watching the spectacular performance on stage with great delight.
However, who knew that the script provided by the screenwriter had a deeper, more hidden intention?
A week later, the Shrek team encountered the Body Sect and ultimately defeated them at the cost of two seriously injured and three slightly injured.
The Tang Clan team wasn't so unlucky, and they made it into the quarterfinals without any major setbacks. However, in the original story, the Snow Demon Sect was defeated by the Holy Spirit Sect, and their fate was extremely tragic.
After the quarterfinals, there was a two-day break. During this time, the Tangmen team had another match with the Riyue team.
Su Yu touched the gold soul coins in his hand that had multiplied dozens of times and couldn't help but sigh deeply. He never missed the gambling in the black market, after all, it was a great opportunity to make a lot of money. As long as he blindly bet on the Sun Moon Team and the Shrek Team, he simply couldn't lose. Moreover, his intelligence was more accurate than everyone else's.
After the previous Soul Guidance Competition ended, Su Yu earned hundreds of millions of gold soul coins from the black market. Apart from allocating a large portion to his family, he kept the remaining 100 million gold soul coins in his own hands.
In this black market gambling operation, some teams offered very large betting odds. These things are all shady dealings, and everyone knows the powerful forces and authority behind these industries.
As someone who controls the strength of both sides and is also a time traveler, turning 100 million into several billion is no problem at all for Su.
Of course, this is also risky. After all, Su always has to change his identity when placing bets in order to avoid being targeted. After all, it's better to avoid trouble.
The development of the Myriad Mirrors Sect also requires start-up capital. Currently, he has not yet returned to the Star Luo Empire, and the Myriad Mirrors Sect's current expenses are also consuming the capital he left behind.
The competition is about to end, and now all he has to do is wait.
In recent days, Xue Di has shown faint signs of awakening.
This made Su Yu very happy. As long as Xue Di woke up, he could go to the far north. However, before going to the far north, he wanted to visit the Yuanen family. After all, the Wanjing Sect needed a cover now. The Su family was no longer reliable, so he needed an ally. At present, the Yuanen family was the most suitable ally.
Although Xu Tianran is difficult to control, there are many times when we need to rely on him to accomplish things, such as Mingdu's Soul Guidance Matrix. Once we master the Soul Guidance Matrix, we can completely solve all of Number One's problems.
The operator of Number Two is almost certainly Luo Yu, because neither the Hall Master nor Xu Tianran would allow an outsider to control such a powerful weapon of war. Moreover, the old emperor of the Sun Moon Empire will pave the way for Xu Tianran. This is a game of strategy, and now it depends on the attitudes of the Hall Master and Kong Deming.
These things need time to settle, but too much attention can easily lead to trouble. The last one to get into trouble was the Crown Prince's advisor. Ju Zi and Luo Yu have done plenty of things like murder and confiscation of property. As such, they know Xu Tianran's personality very well.
What Luo Yu needs now is to focus on doing the present task well, and not to reveal any of her intentions in other matters until the competition ends.
There are two final rounds left in the tournament: the semifinals, featuring the Body Sect, Shrek Academy, Sun Moon Empire, and Tang Sect.
Without Tang Ya and Ma Xiaotao, the Holy Spirit Cult lost its original fighting strength and was defeated by Wang Qiu'er in a bloody battle, thus failing to reach the top four.
As for the Sun Moon Empire, Luo Yu never made a move from beginning to end. Others may not know Luo Yu's strength, but Shrek Academy and Tang Sect team definitely have a deep understanding of Luo Yu's strength, especially Huo.
That's practically a slow, deep-seated psychological trauma!
"It's time to set off. Once you miss the opportunity, you'll never have another chance." After quickly packing up, Su Yu got up and went to the location of the Tang Clan team.
Upon arriving at the conference room, Su Yu addressed the crowd, saying, "There are still two rounds of competition left. I have received my graduation assessment from the academy, so I must leave now and will not remain in the Sun Moon Empire."
"Wait, you mentioned the academy's graduation assessment. Didn't your soul power just reach the Soul Emperor level?" Xu Sanshi asked in surprise.
The academy's graduation assessments are mostly at the seventh ring, sometimes even reaching the eighth or ninth ring. Of course, in the original work, Huo Yuhao's assessment was completely Shrek Academy's way of being a scoundrel.
Su Yu placed the academy's notice on the table and slowly said, "I don't know what kind of agreement the academy reached with the Star Luo Empire. Perhaps the academy hopes that I can clear up the misunderstanding with the Star Luo Empire, which is why they arranged this assessment for me. So, everyone, I'll take my leave first. If the Star Luo Empire doesn't like me, I will apply to the academy to change my graduation assessment. If I can't change it, I will apply to withdraw from the academy."
"This...this isn't quite right..."
After listening to Su Yu's words, Bei Bei was stunned. It was clear that the Star Luo Empire was actively extending an olive branch to Su Yu. Such a great opportunity, yet Su Yu actually refused it and even considered dropping out of the academy if it didn't compromise.
That's the most prestigious academy on the mainland!
Bei Bei wasn't the only one with this idea; even Huo Yuhao, who had stayed at the Body Sect, was stunned.
"Su Yu, are you really going to do this?" He Caitou looked at Su Yu and remained silent for a long time before asking.
Su Yu looked at He Caitou's meaningful gaze and nodded. "Some things always require choices, and that's true now, and it will be true in the future."
"I understand. Take care on your journey. Since this is your choice, I believe you have more important things to do." Xu He didn't say anything more. He stepped forward and gave Su Yu a hug.
After bidding farewell to everyone, Su Yu set off on a new journey. This time, he was heading to Haotian Fortress, but not to seek their approval. Instead, he was going to find the Titan Giant Ape. Although he wasn't sure if the Titan Giant Ape had actually found the Yuanen family, as long as the Titan Giant Ape remembered that place from back then, it definitely wouldn't be unable to find it.
After a day of travel, we finally arrived at the location of the Haotian Sect.
"Halt! This is the sacred ground of the Haotian Sect. No outsiders are allowed to trespass!" The elders guarding the outer perimeter of the Haotian Sect stopped Su Yu.
"Go and inform the sect leader that Su Yu has come to visit. Elder, you don't even remember me, do you?" Su Yu smiled at the wary man in black in front of him.
"Are you the person the young sect leader brought back?" The elder hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking.
Su Yu nodded, watching the person who went to report. He stood quietly on the cloud, waiting for Titan and Niu Tian's reply.
"Let him in, don't worry about the kid," Niu Tian's voice came out calmly.
After obtaining Niu Tian's permission, Su Yu arrived at Haotian Fortress without any obstacles.
In the main hall of the Haotian Sect, Su Yu looked at the two people sitting in the high positions, bowed respectfully, and said, "Uncle Niu Tian, Uncle Titan, please forgive my unannounced visit."
"You don't come here without a reason. So, what are you up to now?" Niu Tian smiled and asked.
Su Yu sat down in the guest seat, smiled, and said, "Before that, I want to confirm one thing: is Uncle Titan really named Yuan Enming?"
Upon hearing this, Niu Tian glanced at Titan and coughed twice.
"That's right, I am Yuan Enming. As for the specifics, I think I'll tell you in detail later. By the way, how did you know about the Yuan En family?" Titan looked at Su Yu with satisfaction and asked slowly.
Su Yu stroked his chin and said, "This matter has to start from a long time ago. You all know what our family does without me having to explain. We often manage to gather information, and a family with an extremely powerful martial soul has emerged. The Su family would never choose to offend them, so we will keep our distance with respect."
"Originally, I didn't take this matter to heart, and for a long time, I even forgot about this information, until Uncle Titan used the Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul in Haotian Fortress. At that moment, I remembered that there was someone who also had the Titan Giant Ape Martial Soul, so I tentatively asked the senior if his name was Yuan Enming."
"After all, given your formidable strength and Titan Giant Ape martial spirit, I believe that even if the Yuanen family is not your descendant, they are most likely to have an inextricable relationship with you."
"And then you asked it out loud?" The Titan Ape laughed heartily.
"Now it seems that I had an unexpected and positive outcome."
It may seem like an unintentional act, but every step was part of a carefully planned scheme, waiting for the Titan Ape to take the bait.
However, this is not a conspiracy; it is simply an exchange of equal value.
"I won't say thank you. Anyway, Xiao Dong'er has already decided on you. Just say what you want. I, Yuan Enming, am not a stingy person." Yuan Enming waved his hand and said proudly.
"I'd like to visit the Yuanen family to discuss a collaboration with them. At the same time, I have another question I'd like to ask you, senior."
Su Yu only needs to guide him step by step. Niu Tian doesn't care about worldly affairs, so he won't interfere in this matter.
"Cooperation? What cooperation?" Yuan Enming was a little confused. Su Yu already had the Haotian Sect behind Wang Dong'er as his backer, so why did he still need to cooperate with the Yuan En family?
Heavily in debt and the "forever" series.
The gathering and dispersing of smoke and dust will eventually come to an end...
