Chapter 982: Entering The Sea Of Stars (2)

Su Yu was left quite speechless. He was happily minding his own business. Why did they insist on inviting him?

These damn immortals were all the same. Previously, Dao Cheng and Jiu Xuan had behaved similarly as well. They had invited him to become a guest at the Immortal Realm. And what was the result? Jiu Xuan was dead. And Dao Cheng would die sooner or later.

The immortals sure were hospitable. After their recent losses from trying to invite him, they were trying to invite him yet again.

"Three Mountainseas. One peak Mountainsea, one seventh-stage Mountainsea, and one sixth-stage Mountainsea..."

That was not weak at all. Or to be precise, that was a very strong lineup. With three Mountainsea dao protectors, the youths were probably individuals with strong backgrounds. But their backgrounds wouldn't be too excessive. It was likely they came from Sunmoon families. And this was probably their first time traveling out of their territory.

Those who were experienced with the Allheaven Battlefield would not be traveling around with dao protectors. Everyone knew that flowers raised in a greenhouse would not be strong.

Thus, even people like Dao Cheng and Mo Duona did not travel around with dao protectors. Then again, they all had formidable trump cards. At the very least, they were capable of calling out to Invincibles when they were in crisis. But there was no promise that the Invincibles would be able to arrive in time.

Thus, those traveling with dao protectors would either be inexperienced travelers or true silkpants. Su Yu did not think that this was a group of silkpants as there were too many of them. After all, they were decently strong. Thus, this was probably their first time out of their territory.

After reaching a conclusion, he briefly scanned his surroundings before replying, "In that case, I'll be troubling you, immortal friends."

He displayed great unwillingness on his face as he spoke.

The youth smirked and waved his hand, sending a sword flying toward Su Yu. Noticing the sword, Su Yu instantly stepped backward, only to see a wide sword floating in front of him.

The youth said, "Come on up."

An amazed look appeared on Su Yu's face as he stepped on the sword. But inwardly, he was cursing. What an idiot. This was a mere profound sword. Why was the immortal pretending like it was a heaven weapon? Did the immortal really think that he was a fool? The sword brought him straight to the flying ship.

The three Mountainseas inspected him again, but they did not perform a deep scan on him. They also focused on their senses, but they did not feel any danger from him. This left them with two possibilities. Either this human was not hiding his cultivation or was far stronger than them.

If he was really far stronger than them, what even was the point of scanning him? Ultimately, they concluded that this human was harmless.

Soon, Su Yu found himself standing on the ship. The ship was quite spacious, with a deck at the front and back of the ship. A large room occupied the middle part of the ship, looking like a place for one to rest.

All the youths were relaxing on the deck. Chairs and tables filled the deck, and tea and liquor adorned the tables. They seemed rather leisurely, as though they were out on vacation. They were probably in the middle of drinking and socializing before they saw him.

They sure knew how to enjoy life. Of the thirteen youths, six were Cloudbreaches and seven were Skysoars. Most of the Cloudbreaches were at the early stage. One of them was at the middle stage while another was at the late stage.

Su Yu felt like if none of them was a super freak like Mo Duona, he could probably kill them all with a single swing of his hammer.

"Greetings, immortal friends."

The same youth smiled and said, "Aren't you introducing yourself?"

"Human, Great Xia, Zheng Yunji."

"Zheng Yunji?" With a pensive look, the youth said, "The most well-known human of Great Xia with the same surname is probably Principal Zheng of the Great Xia War Academy. Do you know him?"

Su Yu hurriedly answered, "Yes, um, no. I met him once. I'm from a branch of the Zheng Family, so I can be considered someone from the same generation as his grandchildren in terms of seniority. To be precise, I am in the same generation as his grandson, Zheng Yunhui."

Su Yu continued, "Immortal friends, feel free to ask your questions. I will not hide anything I know. The humans and immortals are allies. I definitely won't let you down."

"You're a smart one."

The youth smirked and waved, "Sit down. Don't be nervous. We hold no malice toward you. If we really mean you harm, what can you do as a mere Skysoar? It's pointless to be nervous, so just relax."

After a slight pause, the youth smiled and said, "I'm Yun Sheng."

"Immortal Lord Yun!" Su Yu hurriedly greeted.

Yun Sheng said, "Sit down."

"I wouldn't dare..."

"Sit."

Yun Sheng repeated sternly.

Su Yu sat down with an uncomfortable expression. Only then did Yun Sheng and the others sit down. All of them were looking at him like they were looking at a clown.

A young woman said, "Human, what is your destination in the Sea of Stars?"

Su Yu answered, "Red Clouds Island. I'll gather some earthsea gold there. These ores are quite valuable and that island is not too deep into the sea. It's also less dangerous there..."

"Red Clouds Island?"

Yun Sheng said, "True. That place is known for its earthsea gold. But that might not necessarily be a safe place anymore. It's only roughly five thousand kilometers away from Ninestar Island..."

Su Yu said, "It's fine. Ninestar Island should remain relatively safe as well. I checked. The Thousand Region Alliance has always maintained order in that island and its vicinity. As long as one does not cause trouble there, one will be mostly fine."

Hearing that reply, Yun Sheng laughed. The others laughed as well. How ignorant. That information was outdated. Since this human was traveling alone, he was probably a nobody. It was normal for him to not know about the latest happenings.

Ninestar Island was no longer a safe place. Numerous geniuses were gathering there. It had been proven again and again that the number of geniuses in one place corresponded directly to how dangerous that place was.

Yun Sheng couldn't be bothered to explain anything. He asked, "Do you know Su Yu? He's a human from Great Xia."

"Su Yu..."

Su Yu's face instantly turned alert. When Yun Sheng noticed that, he said, "Don't worry. Just speak freely. It doesn't matter if you know them. I know Dao Cheng as well. So what? Are we supposed to take our anger out on you just because you know him? Furthermore, we're not even close to Dao Cheng and Jiu Xuan."

Su Yu exhaled and cautiously spoke, "I can't say I know him. But I did see him once. Back when he was a student in Great Xia, I visited the academy and saw him once. At the time, he was only a Great Strength cultivator. But now...sigh."

That was a complicated sigh. It contained various emotions, including pride and sorrow. He continued, "But eventually, he left for Great Ming and grew apart with Great Xia. Now, he's fighting alone in the Allheaven Battlefield. I wonder if the Invincibles of my race will take him back home..."

"Definitely not." Yun Sheng said, "I know the answer to that. He has yet to return to the Human Realm. Everyone claims that Su Yu has an Invincible ruin. Do you know anything about that?"

Su Yu replied awkwardly, "There are such rumors...but I'm a nobody. I don't know if that's true. Not even those big shots can know this for sure. Immortal Lord Yun, I don't know much about these topics. Even if you ask, I won't be able to provide any answers. I'm only here because the humans and immortals are allies..."

A different youth asked, "I heard there is no suppressive force in the Human Realm. Is that true?"

Su Yu nodded, "Yes. All visitors can freely utilize their full strength in the Human Realm. Everyone knows this."

"Have you met the Xia prefect before?"

Su Yu nodded, "I saw him on TV before. Uhm...TV is basically an item with moving images. Lord Prefect could be frequently seen during live executions. Each time we caught a large number of cultists, the prefect would take charge of the executions."

That was an interesting topic for these youths. Truly a butcher. He was indeed worthy of the title Carnage King.

A young woman asked, "Is the Carnage King cruel? Does he look ferocious and barbaric?"

Su Yu replied unhappily, "Of course not! Lord Prefect is wise, brilliant, handsome, and valiant. How is he barbaric and cruel?"

His unhappiness could be clearly seen on his face.

The youths weren't even surprised. They had all heard that Xia Longwu was the hero of Great Xia. He was basically their spiritual leader. It was normal for this human to react badly to any criticism of Xia Longwu.

Sure enough, the people of Great Xia were all fearless. A mere Skysoar actually had the courage to show his displeasure in the presence of so many experts. The rumors were true. Great Xia was filled with mad murderers.

The youths grew more and more excited. They had always been very curious about the mysterious Human Realm.

"I heard that a descendant of Immortal King Tian Yu went to the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy as an exchange student. They are even preparing to hold a marriage between the Xia Family and the immortal king's family. Have you met the crown prince of Xia before?"

"Yes." Su Yu nodded, "Crown Prince Xia Huyou is...wise, brilliant, strong, and valiant as well."

He did not mean any of that. Inwardly, he was grumbling about Xia Huyou. Was that fellow really going to take that immortal fairy as his wife?

If that was the case, he had to be careful of her farting habits. As the descendant of an immortal king, she had a prestigious status.

Su Yu saw her once, but he didn't pay too much thought to her. At the time, he was still in Great Xia Cultural Research Academy. He had taken a quick look at all the visiting students, and that immortal fairy was among them. Her strength was nothing special. That was his impression of her.

Immortal King Tian Yu...

Su Yu decided to keep this matter in mind. He wondered if they were really planning to befriend humanity or was this entire thing a scheme. If this was a scheme, it would probably be a rather big one. After all, the immortal king had sent even his own descendant to the Human Realm.

He continued answering their questions. Most of the questions were related to the human race, and none of the questions were too difficult to answer. Clearly, these people had learned about the human race before, but it was also obvious that they were still quite clueless about humanity as a whole. Perhaps he was the first human they had ever seen.
