Tribulation of Myriad Races

There wasn’t much Su Yu needed to do. He only needed to determine the time and venue to make his move.

When the time arrived, he would throw a punch, blast Xia Xinyi apart, before returning to the crowd. The authorities would search the crowd, but Administrator Hu was no Invincible. What was there for him to fear?

As he grew in strength, many of his characters had also grown stronger, including his change, patience, deceit, and calm characters. The concealment art he learned from the looping turtles had also grown a lot more effective than before. Coupled with the concealment talisman he received from Old Niu, very few people could see through his disguise.

“Two peak Mountainseas and one regular Mountainsea. This won’t be too hard to locate.”

While thinking that, Su Yu constantly scanned the area with his Perception Jade. He only needed to throw a punch from a kilometer away. His target wouldn’t even see him. That would be perfect!

Suddenly, his eyes flickered. At the moment, the group had just arrived in front of the Martial Dragon Guard’s local branch. He continued conversing with the others as they approached the building.

All of a sudden, he stopped moving. That did not attract any attention. The guards stationed outside did not suspect anything either. Nobody would visit this place without a proper reason. And nobody had the courage to create trouble there. Thus, they merely gave the group a glance before looking away again.

Su Yu transformed into a gust of wind. In a split second, he moved a kilometer away. Xia Xinyi and the two hidden peak Mountainseas entered his vision. The calm character activated. The two peak Mountainseas did not feel any danger. Abruptly, a fist appeared out of thin air.

Boom!

At the moment, the street was filled with pedestrians. A shocking scene unfolded before their eyes.A middle-aged man had been punched apart. His entire body had exploded from the punch. The reaction of the crowd fully displayed the martial customs of Great Xia. Instead of scattering in panic, numerous blades were drawn.

As for the two hidden Mountainseas, they first blanked out. Then, the eyes of one of them turned red as he roared furiously, “Young Marquis!”

That furious roar resounded throughout the city.

Next, an incomparably powerful aura rose from the prefect’s residence.

“Damn it!”

“Seal the city!”

“Martial Dragon Guard, seal the city!”

“All Mountainseas and Sunmoons in the city, gather up immediately. Refusal is not an option!”

That was Administrator Hu’s voice. He was losing his mind.

Heavens!

Someone had killed Xia Xinyi right under his watch! Marquis Xia would go mad after learning about this.

The shout of the Mountainsea stunned the surrounding pedestrians.

Who could it be? Young Marquis? Who was that? Marquis Xia’s son?

Everyone in the city was stunned. Marquis Xia’s son had been blown apart right inside the capital. He wasn’t even that far away from the prefect’s residence and the Martial Dragon Guard’s office when it happened.

This…was unimaginable!

***

The auras of Sunmoons and Mountainseas started erupting all over the city.

Meanwhile, Su Yu had returned back where he was. He continued his conversation with the group of students. Suddenly, they all looked up in shock.

Hundreds of Martial Dragon Guard soldiers were rushing out of the building in front of them. A few of the stronger ones directly soared into the sky. Su Yu’s group was completely ignored.

Or to be precise, they were pushed aside since they were standing in the way of the departing soldiers. The soldiers were all rushing toward the place of the incident.

Instantly, the entire city entered a state of war. Sounds of military horns rang out all over the city. This was a major incident. A member of Xia Family had been killed not far from the prefect’s residence.

Administrator Hu’s roar could be heard all over the city. Multiple Sunmoon auras instantly covered the entire city. At the same time, dozens of Mountainseas made their presence known.

A massive spear shot into the sky. That was General Zhao. He looked incomparably furious. A large number of experts had instantly appeared in the capital.

“Seal the city!”

“Nobody is allowed to enter or exit for three days.”

“All civilians are to return home and await investigation.”

“Anyone attempting to break the curfew or leave the city will be executed without mercy.”

“Search! Find the killer!”

A burning sun appeared in the sky, pressuring the entire city with its might. Hovering above Administrator Hu’s palm was a tiny and fragile ball of light. Staring at the ball of light, Administrator Hu looked furious.

“Profound Nine, that was you, right?”

“Heavenly Hunt Pavilion! You guys have gone mad! You’re all dead! Dead! Request for Great Xia King’s return! Request for Prefect Xia’s return! Request for Maquis Xia’s return! We will eliminate the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!”

Administrator Hu could no longer keep his calm.

Xia Xinyi was not dead. But he had lost his body, leaving only a badly damaged sea of willpower behind. Administrator Hu didn’t know how he should face Marquis Xia after this. Everything had happened under his watch.

Marquis Xia’s son had actually been blown apart.

Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!

That fist definitely belonged to Profound Nine. He had seen the same fist before.

“Seal the city!”

He ordered again in rage. He was sure Profound Nine had yet to leave the city. This time, he would find Profound Nine regardless of the price he had to pay. He would kill Profound Nine before Marquis Xia was back.

He had previously thought that Profound Nine was only someone of minor importance. But that was no rat. Instead, that was a lunatic who had attempted to kill an important member of Xia Family as retaliation.

Administrator Hu’s eyes were frosty. How did Profound Nine find out about Xia Xinyi’s schedule? Not even Administrator Hu himself had access to that information. Looking at the two Mountainsea guards, his eyes turned even colder than before. Did these fools sense nothing beforehand? Or perhaps they had been corrupted by the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion?

Marquis Xia must hear of this. Administrator Hu felt extremely helpless. He could already see how furious Marquis Xia would be. Due to the small size of the Xia Family, they placed a lot of importance on their family members. In fact, Xia Xinyi was Marquis Xia’s sole son.

Before long, the entire city was placed in a lockdown as a large number of soldiers were deployed. Nobody was allowed to leave or enter the city. A curfew was imposed on the people in the city. Even the consulates of the other prefectures in the city were placed on lockdown.

As for the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy, due to the number of foreign students in it, the eighth-stage Sunmoon white dragon personally enforced the lockdown on it. The academy members who were outside were all ordered to return immediately.

***

At the same time, news of what happened started spreading everywhere.

“Emergency report! Marquis Xia’s son, Xia Xinyi, was blasted apart by Profound Nine in broad daylight. Hu Dehao and Zhou Rui have placed the entire city on lockdown. Nobody is allowed to leave or enter the city. The experts of Great Xia will return soon. Martial law has been imposed on the entire city.”

“Emergency report! Xia Xinyi has been killed! Great Xia is in chaos!”

“The Xia Family is sealing and searching the entire city. Destroy everything. Cease all our activities.”

“Everyone, stay where you are and wait. If you’re found, self-detonate immediately. Think about your family.”

All sorts of messages were being sent everywhere.

But that only lasted a short while before all communication channels went silent. To avoid detection through these communication channels, they had to avoid using these channels too much.

***

At the same time, Marquis Xia, who was already near Great Xia, staggered. His eyes turned red as he roared, “All Sunmoons of Great Xia are to return! I will eliminate the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion!”

“Go back! Now!”

Marquis Xia roared madly. The experts around him were greatly shocked. At that moment, Marquis Xia was fully releasing his aura as an eighth-stage Sunmoon, subjecting his surroundings to immense pressure.

Before long, news of what happened also reached the Allheaven Battlefield. And not long after that, two Sunmoons of Great Xia started withdrawing from the Allheaven Prefecture.

After some time, the portal in Allheaven Prefecture opened. Eight Sunmoons stepped out of it before rushing straight to Great Xia, moving at their top speed.

***

At the same time.

Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

Human Realm’s branch.

White One and the others looked at each other in dismay. The enforcer elder nearly crushed his own mask after losing his calm.

After a short silence, he said, “All white masks are to go into hiding immediately. The headquarters have been updated. The Human Realm branch will be stopping all operations for now. All elders are to go into hiding as well. Cease all communication between our members.

“Withdraw all our members in Great Xia. The Xia Family has gone mad. Damn it! Profound Nine is a lunatic! Damn it! Rather than letting him go crazy, we should have killed Yellow Nine to placate him instead!”

Even the enforcer elder was losing his mind.

Was Profound Nine crazy?

He had killed the prince of the Xia Family right at the very core of their territory.

Xia Xinyi was the grandson of Great Xia King. And Great Xia King only had two grandsons. One of them was Xia Longwu and the other was Xia Xinyi.

That crazy Profound Nine had killed Xia Xinyi.

Holy shit! That guy was too crazy!

Sure, Yuan Qingdong was the grandson of Great Yuan King. But that was different as Great Yuan King had a large number of grandsons. And the attack on Yuan Qingdong had happened in Great Xia, not their own territory. Meanwhile, Xia Xinyi had been killed right in front of Great Xia’s residence.

That was a provocation.

That was a slap across their face.

The enforcer elder couldn’t stay calm anymore. The Xia Family would not forgive the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion for this. Definitely. In fact, he already received words that the Xia Family had withdrawn even the Sunmoons stationed in the minor realms under their rule.

They were pulling back a large number of experts. Clearly, they were prepared to fight the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion to the death!

“First Profound…you…you…if you managed to contact Profound Nine….you…forget it.”

The enforcer elder didn’t even know what he should say anymore.

When he heard that Profound Nine wanted to take revenge previously, he did not take that seriously. But now, he greatly regretted his previous inaction. If he had known this would happen, he would definitely not allow that to happen.

Out of all people, that lunatic had to kill Xia Xinyi. This would bring them endless troubles. Even now, those from the two chambers were spamming them with messages, demanding to know if that madman was from the four departments.

In fact, one of their members had personally witnessed that punch. And that member was currently trembling with fear. The entire city had been placed in lockdown. How many people would die because of Profound Nine?

Damn it!

This incident shook the entire Human Realm. As for Yuan Qingdong’s who were on their way to Great Xia, they picked up the pace after realizing that this was the prelude to something big. They had to be quick if they wanted to arrive in time to watch the show.

Naturally, they would try to avoid entering the capital. Instead, they would stay nearby and enjoy the show on the sidelines. The Xia Family would go crazy. Could Marquis Xia tolerate the murder of his sole son?

Also, if the Nanyuan ruin happened to appear while the Xia Family was fighting the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, would the Xia Family be too occupied to care about the ruin? Of course, they also needed to be careful lest the Xia Family go completely mad and take out their anger on everyone.

And thus, the group of young masters contacted even more people. With more people, they would be able to better handle Xia Family’s anger. More and more people started heading toward Great Xia.

All of them had the same idea. If the Nanyuan ruin was found during this time, the Xia Family might be too occupied to interfere. This concerned their reputation. They had to prioritize dealing with the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion.

***

Xia Xinyi’s death had great repercussions.

In fact, even the Allheaven Battlefield was affected by that incident. With such an incident happening, Great Xia King wanted to return. But with the tensions at the border, he was forced to remain. In his fury, he picked a fight with a random devil Invincible instead.

Naturally, the devil Invincible was someone from the blood fire devil race. According to Great Qin King, everyone should step aside and allow the two lunatics to fight it out. That way, they could let off some steam.

All the Invincibles had heard of what happened. The grandson of Great Yuan King was nearly killed while Great Xia King’s grandson was directly killed. The entire Great Xia had been thrown into chaos.

Even those from the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion’s Allheaven Battlefield branches were starting to withdraw. According to the headquarters, things were getting very dangerous.

Great Xia King might decide to go mad and kill all these people to vent his anger. Thus, the headquarters had advised their members to reduce their operations for a period of time. A single Profound Nine had shaken the entire Myriad Realms.

What was wrong with that madman? Why did he run to their territory and kill a major individual there right in front of their own house? Why must he do this to the Xia Family, a family that cared a lot more about their members due to their small size?

Things were already getting chaotic, but because of that madman, the chaos had been elevated to a whole new level.
