Chapter 2081: Chapter 2081
The Master of the Heavenly Court looked incredulous, quickly waving his hand to signal the people of the Heavenly Court to enter the valley to search.
The people of the Heavenly Court immediately rushed into the valley, while on the side of Qinghe Academy, there wasn't much commotion. After all, all nine people of the Human Clan had come out, so there was no need for them to go in and search.
The principal walked up to Su Yang, full of joy and excitement, nodding, "No matter what, it's good that you're out, it's good that you're out!"
Su Yang smiled and nodded; in fact, he didn't say much. If the principal knew that not only did they come out, but they also gained much from this trip, who knows what expression he would have.
After the people of the Heavenly Court went in and searched, they all came out dejected, as there wasn't a single person inside the valley.
"Eighty people from the Eight Realms, not even one managed to come out?" The Master of the Heavenly Court struggled to accept this; he didn't care about others, but ten people from the Heavenly Realm had gone in, and not a single one came out. How was he going to account for this to the Heavenly Realm?
"If they didn't come out, then they probably couldn't make it out." Su Yang said, "Inside the Feather Spirit Palace, it's very dangerous, not as simple as you imagine!"
"Very dangerous? Then why did all of you come out!" An elder from the Heavenly Court couldn't help but shout angrily.
Su Yang glanced at the elder and said coldly, "So according to you, we shouldn't have come out?"
The elder looked indignant and said coldly, "The Human Clan's power is the weakest. Ten people went in, and nine of you managed to come out. But from the Eight Realms, where the power is stronger than the Human World, eighty people went in, and not a single one came out. Su Yang, explain this to me!"
"Explain?" The principal said coldly, "Heh, do you still have the face to ask for an explanation? The Eight Realms are all more powerful than the Human World, and yet eighty people went in, and not a single one came out. Shouldn't that be an issue for your Eight Realms? Why do you expect the weakest Human Clan to explain to you? Do you think the Human Clan sacrificed one person in exchange for slaying all eighty people from the Eight Realms?"
The elder was momentarily speechless, just as the principal had pointed out. The Eight Realms were stronger than the Human World, yet not one person came out, and now they were questioning the Human World, which wasn't quite fitting.
But the problem was, they were really unwilling to accept this.
The survival rate of the Human World was so high, yet none survived from the Eight Realms; who wouldn't find that hard to accept!
"What exactly happened inside?" The Master of the Heavenly Court looked at Su Yang, frowning, "Why didn't anyone from the Eight Realms come out?"
"I really don't know about that!" Su Yang said, "Anyway, outside, we lost quite a few people. There were sweeping seven-colored rays, and mysterious power vortexes; we lost nearly thirty people in total."
"You lost nearly thirty people in total, based on probability, at least three people from the Human Clan should have died!" The elder shouted angrily, "What's going on here?"
"Probability also depends on luck." Su Yang said, "Inside, we drew lots for paths. Our Human Clan was lucky; only one person drew from the first thirty, so we lost one person. Isn't that acceptable?"
The elder was furious and shouted, "Lucky? Only one out of the first thirty? Such luck? How am I supposed to believe this?"
"Don't believe it, fine then!" Su Yang retorted indignantly, "When we drew lots, we were still inside the valley. Backing out from there was moving outside. At that time, people from the Nine Realms were together, and you were watching from behind. Do you think our Human Clan could have tampered with it at that moment? If we truly had that ability, heh, do you think you would still be qualified to enter the Feather Spirit Palace?"
"You..." The elder was at a loss for words, unable to refute Su Yang for the moment.
The Master of the Heavenly Court frowned, "So what happened after you entered the Feather Spirit Palace? You lost thirty people outside, and there were still sixty who entered the Feather Spirit Palace, only nine of you came out?"
"As for what happened inside the Feather Spirit Palace, I really don't know!" Su Yang said, "There are many overlapping spaces in the Feather Spirit Palace; it's easy to get separated. At the time, the Eight Realms forced us, the Human Clan, to lead the way together. We had no choice but to lead at the front. In the end, we accidentally stepped into an overlapping space and got separated. Most of us were trapped in these overlapping spaces and couldn't get out. Later, there was a massive power fluctuation inside the Feather Spirit Palace, causing all these overlapping spaces to disappear. By the time we came out again, the situation outside had changed a lot."
"Changed how? Explain it clearly to me!" The elder shouted angrily.
"Who do you think you are, asking for a clear explanation from me?" Su Yang was also angry, glaring, "Old thing, don't forget, you were all rescued by me from Storm Valley; is this how you speak to your savior?"
The elder sneered, "Su, you've got it wrong. I am from the Heavenly Realm, not a member of the Heavenly Court. I wasn't rescued by you!"
Hearing this, Su Yang was immediately furious and turned indignantly to the Master of the Heavenly Court, "What does this mean? The people from the Heavenly Realm can just dictate to the Human World now? Can the agreement between the Heavenly Realm and the Human World be scrapped? Does the rule of the Heavenly Court not need to be followed anymore?"
The Master of the Heavenly Court looked embarrassed, glaring at the elder with annoyance, and said sternly, "You, be quiet!"
The elder was angry but ultimately dared not speak further. His status in the Heavenly Realm was far inferior to that of the Master of the Heavenly Court. He could only be considered an envoy, while the Master of the Heavenly Court was akin to a high-ranking official.
The Master of the Heavenly Court looked at Su Yang and said, "Su Alliance Leader, if I have offended you earlier, please forgive me. It's just that this matter is indeed too significant. The ones who entered the Feather Spirit Palace were the most talented young people from the Eight Realms. If they all perished inside the Feather Spirit Palace, I must provide an explanation to the Eight Realms. Otherwise, they might come themselves to question you!"
The Master of the Heavenly Court's words carried a veiled threat to Su Yang. If this matter couldn't be explained clearly, the Eight Realms would arrive at the Human World for questioning. By then, the Human World would truly be in crisis.
Su Yang said coldly, "Immortal Elder, if I said that I killed all the members of the Eight Realms, would you believe it?"
"Nonsense!" Before the Master of the Heavenly Court could speak, the elder directly cursed, "Who do you think you are, thinking you could kill eighty people from the Eight Realms? You should look at yourself in a puddle of water to see if you're really capable of that!"
Su Yang simply stopped speaking, glaring coldly at the Master of the Heavenly Court.
The Master of the Heavenly Court was also angered, glaring at the elder, "If you say any more, I'll send you back first!"
