Chapter 188 The Beginning of Power Deprivation
"What are you worried about? Back in the Star Dou Great Forest, didn't the vice class monitor come back safe and sound?" Xiao Xiao thought for a moment and felt that bringing up Di Tian as a reason to comfort Wang Dong'er was the best thing to do.
"Xiao Xiao, do you think Su Yu might move from the Star Luo Empire to the Sun Moon Empire like Senior Brother Bei Bei said?" Wang Dong'er thought for a moment and decided to ask this question.
"I don't know about that, but given the vice squad leader's personality, it's highly likely..."
Xiao Xiao recalled Su Yu's consistently carefree demeanor and couldn't help but think that if such a thing really happened, Su Yu would most likely choose to solve the problem at its root.
Just like during the selection of the Shrek Seven Devils, Su Yu withdrew directly to avoid trouble. Even later, when he returned from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, he directly negotiated a deal with Elder Xuan for Wang Dong'er's graduation exam...
Aside from Su Yu, there is no other genius like him on the entire continent.
Shrek Academy, Poseidon Island, Poseidon Pavilion.
Meetings at the Sea God Pavilion are extremely rare, often held once a year at most, and sometimes not at all for several years. However, in recent years, they have become exceptionally frequent.
If you count carefully, this is already the seventh year since Su Yu enrolled. The Sea God Pavilion has held more than a dozen meetings. This unusually frequent meeting has given many elders a slight headache.
While each of these recent meetings was indeed very important, the more frequent the meetings and decisions, the more likely they are to give the impression that they are not so important. However, this impression is just that – an impression. In the Sea God Pavilion, which of the many cunning old foxes is anyone but a pushover?
This time, the Sea God Pavilion meeting was still chaired by Elder Xuan, but the content of the meeting was drafted by Yan Shaozhe.
The meeting was divided into three parts. The first part was about the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament.
The competition format has changed this year, and the number of participating teams has increased dramatically. However, in accordance with Mu En's previous instructions, the Tang Sect will also participate, and the participants will be the current Shrek Seven Devils. But after Su Yu was mentioned, the tone began to shift.
"According to the letter from Su Yu's parents, Su Yu withdrew from this competition because of the Star Luo Empire's royal family. I'm sure you all know the details. What are your thoughts on this?" Elder Xuan looked around, his brows furrowed slightly.
"I believe this matter has nothing to do with Su Yu. As Shrek Academy, the Star Luo Empire's royal family should also be mindful of their own behavior. Moreover, this matter has fundamentally affected the academy's participating teams. I think we need to negotiate with the Star Luo Empire's officials to lift the restrictions on the Su family."
Yan Shaozhe thought of the thrilling reversal in the last competition. If it weren't for Su Yu, they would most likely have lost in that final. He didn't want a similar thing to happen again this time. Since it could be prevented, the academy's interests had to be the priority.
"I agree with Dean Yan's statement, but I feel that if we do that, wouldn't it violate Shrek Academy's rule of not interfering in the affairs of other countries? If we do that, wouldn't it bring immeasurable negative impacts to Shrek Academy?" Xian Lin'er naturally knew Yan Shaozhe's plan, but doing so would only bring negative effects to Shrek Academy, with the disadvantages outweighing the advantages.
"Both of you have valid points, but I believe that with the right approach, this could have been avoided. However, this is a matter that Su Yu must resolve himself. As elders of Shrek Academy, it is not appropriate for us to interfere in such matters," Elder Lin said slowly.
"That's right, let's leave this matter to the Star Luo Empire." Elder Xuan looked at Lin Huiqun and nodded.
The next two parts are about soul tools. In short, we have enough resources, but not enough conditions, such as a lack of technical guidance and design blueprints.
At this point, everyone turned to look at Fan Yu…
Fan Yu: "…………"
“…………”
The meeting ended in such an awkward atmosphere. Don't ask why I looked at Fan Yu, because Fan Yu is Su Yu's teacher. The more than forty design drawings about the overall development and research of soul tools were passed down from Su Yu.
…………
The Star Luo Empire, the Su family.
"I think, Yan'er, we should go back to the Sun Moon Empire. The Star Luo Empire is no longer peaceful." Su Xinyuan looked at the figure standing at the door and sighed softly.
"Father, Mother, I'm back..." Su Yu wiped the blood from his face, looked at Su Xinyuan's forlorn expression, and slowly spoke.
"Yu'er, what's wrong with you? What happened to you...?" Looking at the bloodstains on Su Yu's body and his somewhat torn clothes, Mu Hanyan instinctively sensed that something was wrong.
"It's nothing. I just ran into a clueless guy on the way back. I have some things I want to discuss with my dad."
Su Yu looked at the somewhat dejected Su Xinyuan, and then sat down in the living room under Mu Hanyan's guidance.
"You mean to talk about the family relocation, right?" Mu Hanyan looked at Su Xinyuan and then asked.
Su Yu nodded and said, "Our family has always been a puppet of the Star Luo Empire. From the very beginning of our rise to power, the Star Luo Empire's royal family has always been behind us. You haven't told me about this, have you? If I'm not mistaken, the older generation in our family have basically supported the Star Luo royal family, right?"
"It's not hard for you to guess. I originally planned to tell you all this when you reached the Soul Saint level, but it's not unexpected that you could guess. So, tell me, how many people did you kill this time?" Su Xinyuan put down the teacup in his hand and sat down opposite Su Yu.
"Not many, just those people who wanted to harm you before. Although I know that doing so would displease the Star Luo Empire's royal family, I have a trump card to protect myself. I'm keeping this as our last trump card and won't tell anyone for now, including you and my mother."
Su Yu took the damp towel handed to him by the maid and slowly wiped away the congealed blood from his face. This was not the first time he had killed someone, but it was the first time he had killed someone from his own family.
"To be honest, I don't know much about your affairs either. Sometimes I even doubt whether you're my son. But I trust you to do things. You can handle things with the Star Luo Empire yourself. After all, you're the head of the family now." Su Xinyuan waved his hand, not caring at all.
"In that case, leave it to me. I don't care about anything else. As long as you and Mother are safe and sound, everything can start over. Even if it means starting from scratch, that's fine too. So, leave the Star Luo Empire and go to the Sun Moon Empire. It doesn't matter if you don't move your things, as long as you leave the Star Luo Empire."
Looking at Su Xinyuan's slightly tired appearance, Su Yu revealed his plans.
As for the future of the Su family, whether it is a war between the Sun Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire or the Sun Moon Empire conquers the Star Luo Empire, the Su family will ultimately be bound to the Star Luo Empire's war chariot and sent to the battlefield where they are doomed before the royal family falls.
No one can stop the army of the Sun Moon Empire unless a miracle occurs, or someone can change the balance of power among the three empires in this chaotic world. But obviously, Su Yu is not going to do something so thankless.
Even if he had the ability, he wouldn't drag his family or himself into such a power struggle.
Because this is meaningless to Su Yu.
Listening to their conversation, Mu Hanyan gradually realized that something was wrong. "Yu'er, if we leave, what will happen to you? As your parents, how can we leave you alone in this dangerous place?"
Su Yu shook his head helplessly and said, "Mother, I am now a disciple of Shrek Academy's inner court, the captain of the Shrek Seven Devils, and a core member of Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department. If the Star Luo Empire can withstand Shrek's wrath, they can certainly take action against me. But you and Father are different. They can use the family to bind you, and if you don't leave, they can also use some underhanded methods to use you to bind me. Therefore, you and Father must leave, because we don't want to see something even more terrible happen to our family..."
"Mother knows, but Yu'er, you must promise me that you will take good care of yourself. If you encounter danger, don't be reckless. Protecting yourself is the most important thing..."
Listening to Mu Hanyan's incessant admonitions, Su Yu and Su Xinyuan exchanged a smile. Su Xinyuan reached out and grasped Mu Hanyan's hand, his eyes filled with a barely perceptible tenderness.
Su Yu got up, left the place, and returned to his courtyard.
The following day, the head of the Su family was assassinated, and everyone in the Su family mansion perished in the fire; all 137 people in the mansion were killed.
Looking at the intelligence in his hand, Su Yu calmly stood up and slowly looked at the mansion engulfed in flames.
"It seems that Father has found a way to escape. Old Chen did a good job. It's just a pity about those pawns that outsiders planted around Father. Old Chen will probably make arrangements for them too, after all, it's not like he's never lived in the Sun Moon Empire before."
Su Yu got up and burned all the letters and documents in his house, leaving all the evidence of the Myriad Mirrors Sect's existence in the sea of fire. When he left the courtyard, the area around the Myriad Mirrors Sect outside the Star Luo Imperial Capital had already been completely covered by the poisonous miasma formed by the Azure Scale Seven Absolute Flowers and Azure Scale Nine Absolute Flowers.
With everything prepared, Su Yu now has no worries.
Family?
Su Xinyuan and Mu Hanyan have already left the Star Luo Empire. Now, their families are completely at the mercy of the royal family. Su Yu no longer cares about their lives or deaths.
This is undoubtedly a self-inflicted wound for Su Yu, but given the situation, he has no other choice.
Some decaying things, too, will eventually be selected through this process and perfectly forge their own value in the future, perhaps in the next few decades or even a decade or two…
This carefully designed "accident" was not only to protect Su Xinyuan, but also to protect those Su Xinyuan could trust, as well as some of the core members of the family. Of the 137 people, about 80 faked their deaths.
These are the people Su Xinyuan can't let go of. Letting them leave with Su Xinyuan means that Su Xinyuan no longer cares about the life or death of the Su family.
Su Xinyuan was not ignorant about making choices; in fact, he deeply understood this principle when he personally killed other competitors in his early years.
Su Yu was also aware that because he had reviewed all of Su Xinyuan's information, the two of them cooperated extremely well when making this plan.
The incident caused a huge uproar and turmoil in the outside world. The fact that they dared to take action even in the capital of the Star Luo Empire made the Star Luo Empire lose face. The impact of this incident was no less than that of the previous attack on Mingde Hall by the Body Sect.
Subsequently, since no evidence or trace could be found, the mess could only be left to the Holy Spirit Cult, which had committed numerous evil deeds. In order to show compassion for the people, many restrictions on Su Yu's travel were lifted, and Su Yu was restored to his freedom.
The reason for doing this is that with the death of this group of people, a power vacuum has appeared in the Su family. Su Yu is too lazy to get involved, and the huge Su family has become a battleground for people from different factions to fight for power. It is precisely because this is a good opportunity to control the Su family that Su Yu, a powerless family head, seems less important.
After a grand funeral, the Su family faded from public view once again, but the news eventually reached Shrek Academy.
Regardless of the consequences of the incident, what everyone was concerned about was Su Yu's condition.
However, the final news was that Su Yu announced that the Su family would be managed by the elders, and he would go to the Sunset Forest for training on his own.
No one was surprised by this decision. Anyone else would probably be devastated and even fall into despair if their family suffered such a huge loss, and even their parents were lost in such an accident.
When Su Yu reappeared in Sunset Forest, the scene he saw was truly astonishing. All the immortal herbs were somewhat abnormal, and the most pitiful was Youyou, whose petals had been knocked off...
When she saw Su Yu, it was as if she had seen a savior, and she staggered toward Su Yu.
"What's wrong with you guys that you have to fight the Snow Empress?" Su Yu was puzzled. The difference in strength was obvious, so why did these immortal herbs have to be so reckless?
"It's all Youyou's fault. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have gotten beaten up by Xue Di..."
Is it all Youyou's fault?
A series to be completed in one's lifetime.
