Chapter 2177: Chapter 2177
Listening to Su Yang's words, everyone nodded in agreement.
Su Yang's decision was quite appropriate. These Fierce Beasts remaining here would always be a threat to the Nine Realms. Letting them go was the best choice. Although it couldn't completely solve the crisis of the Nine Realms, at least it could temporarily alleviate the crisis for a period of time!
After driving all the Fierce Beasts away, Su Yang and his team dared not linger on this planet. They dealt with the corpses remaining on this planet, completely destroying the evidence, and afterwards, they hurriedly left the planet.
This time, Su Yang and his team did not venture deeper into the Endless Starry Sky. Instead, they headed straight back.
With the Jade Pendant's guidance, Su Yang and his team easily returned to the vicinity of the moon.
At the edge of the moon, Su Yang saw from a distance that the assassin was standing inside the barrier, watching the outside. Seeing Su Yang and his team return, the assassin obviously breathed a sigh of relief.
It was clear that while Su Yang and his team were in the Endless Starry Sky for training, the assassin was quite worried and had been waiting for their return.
As Su Yang and his team approached the barrier, the assassin opened it and welcomed them inside.
"So, you've been waiting here all along because you were afraid we wouldn't return, huh?" the Beigong War God joked.
"Not exactly!" The assassin shook his head, "With this kid Su around, the odds of you not returning were low. I was just worried that your return might be too coincidental!"
"Coincidental? What do you mean?" Qi Zhishan asked, puzzled.
"In a few days, those Fierce Beasts will launch their attack on the Nine Realms. If you returned at just that time, you'd run into them, wouldn't you?" The assassin explained, "Once they attack, it would be troublesome. During such a massive assault on the Nine Realms, we can only fight outside, and we cannot freely open this barrier to let you in."
Hearing this, Su Yang was stirred. In a few days, it would be the time when the Fierce Beasts attacked the Nine Realms. This seemed somewhat related to the timing of those Fierce Beasts being sent to that planet.
It appeared that once those Fierce Beasts on that planet gradually lost their minds, they would be sent to attack the Nine Realms.
If that were the case, it confirmed Su Yang and his team's suspicions. The Fierce Beasts sent to that planet were indeed intended for the assault on the Nine Realms. And that planet served as a transit station for the Beast Tamers or perhaps the Guardian Gods in their attack on the Nine Realms!
Seeing Su Yang and his team with unusual expressions, the assassin asked curiously, "What's wrong with you all?"
"Nothing!" Su Yang quickly shook his head. They had already discussed the matters regarding that planet and couldn't speak about it casually. Because this involved the issue of the Divine Artifacts they possessed. Once they disclosed the details about that planet, the issue of the Divine Artifacts might also be exposed.
After all, stranded on that planet, they couldn't leave without the use of the Divine Artifacts. If they didn't reveal the matter about the Divine Artifacts, they wouldn't be able to explain how they left that planet, which would definitely arouse suspicion.
So, this secret had to be kept for now and couldn't be disclosed. As for the Nine Realms Saints, they couldn't be informed either. Without absolute strength to protect these Divine Artifacts, Su Yang and his team dared not easily expose the information about them.
To verify their hypothesis, Su Yang and his team stayed there for a while to see if the Fierce Beasts would come to attack the Nine Realms again.
And this time, things indeed unfolded as they had predicted. Ten days passed without any sign of a Fierce Beast attack, which puzzled the assassin and his team, leaving them baffled about what was going on. Previously, at most within a week, the Fierce Beasts would attack, so why was there not even a hint of activity this time?
With this, Su Yang and his team confirmed their hypothesis completely. That planet was indeed the transit station for those Fierce Beasts!
Just as Su Yang and his team were about to leave, some unexpected incidents occurred on the moon. From the Asura Realm, Ghost Realm, Feather Realm, and Demon Realm, groups of people charged out fiercely, heading straight for Outer Heaven, as if their intent was to kill, though the reasons were unclear.
"What's going on with them?" Su Yang asked the assassin, puzzled.
The assassin shrugged, "It's complicated. Rumor has it the Asura Clan killed a group from the Ghost Realm, the Feather Clan killed some from the Demon Clan. Then the Demon Clan killed a group from the Feather Realm, and the Ghost Realm retaliated by killing a group from the Asura Clan. Anyway, the situation escalated significantly. These Four Realms have clashed several times already, and eventually, they agreed to resolve the matters of the Endless Starry Sky within it. These people had been on the moon for quite some time, planning to settle the matter in the Endless Starry Sky. But with the looming threat of the Fierce Beasts' attack, they temporarily stayed on the moon. Now that the Beast threat didn't materialize, they've headed to the Endless Starry Sky, presumably to fight it out!"
Su Yang and his team listened with a guilty conscience. Others might not know what really caused all this, but Su Yang and his team knew it best. At that time, it was Su Yang and his team who disguised themselves as members of various clans to slay people from other clans, leaving survivors to go back and report.
Su Yang's intention was merely to spark some internal conflict among them, but he didn't expect the situation to blow up to this extent. The fact that people from the Four Realms specifically rushed to the Endless Starry Sky to duel exceeded their expectations.
"Isn't mutual slaughter among the Nine Realms in the Endless Starry Sky a customary occurrence?" Su Yang asked, puzzled, "Why is this time causing such a huge commotion?"
"It's normal to kill one or two people before. Or, if you kill a lot, you could annihilate your opponent entirely, leaving them unable to report back, and that would be fine!" The assassin replied, "But this time, for some reason, they've become truly enraged. Almost everyone in their first region training was wiped out, which is a significant blow to any realm; naturally, they are very furious. So, things have escalated more and more!"
Su Yang and his companions exchanged glances, secretly smirking to themselves. The results were better than they had imagined; it couldn't have been more fitting!
"Alright, you should head back first!" The assassin advised, "Next time you venture into the Endless Starry Sky for training, you must exercise greater caution. After this incident, I estimate that it will be even more dangerous within the Endless Starry Sky. The Human Clan, being weaker, needs to be extra careful. Other races killing them could escalate the situation, but slaughtering humans requires no such concern; it comes without any reservations!"
"Understood!" everyone nodded immediately, having fully experienced the situation on their trip to the Endless Starry Sky this time. Just as the assassin described, the Human Clan is treated like Fierce Beasts in the Endless Starry Sky, merely targets for training by the other Eight Realms, with no one taking the Human Clan seriously!
