Supreme Warrior in the City

Su Yang entered the thatched hut, heading to Jieyue Tower to find the Martial Champion.

”The seals at all the boundary points of the Six Realms have been broken...” Su Yang said in a deep voice. ”Is there any way to reseal them?”

The Martial Champion shook his head slowly: ”Unless we can find six more Divine Beasts of similar strength to seal these six boundary points with their lives. Otherwise, there’s no way to reseal them!”

Su Yang frowned. That being the case, it was impossible to seal them again.

”Is there any other way?” Su Yang asked sternly.

The Martial Champion thought for a while and shook his head again: ”This time, it’s different from before. Previously, when the channels to the Eight Realms were found, they only came to the Human World for its thin spiritual energy and to occupy it. But this time, it involves the World Melting Furnace, and the Feather Spirit Palace, so the Eight Realms will do their utmost to come to the Human World and seize them. Thus, the threat that the Human World faces this time is far more terrifying than before the Nine Realms were separated!”

Seeing Su Yang’s expression, the Martial Champion whispered: ”However, even if the Eight Realms send people to the Human World, it will take some time. During this time, you can try to send as many potential members of the Human World into the World Melting Furnace and then hide it. In this way, at least the Human World can preserve its heritage somewhat!”

Su Yang’s brows furrowed even more. What he wanted was not just to preserve the Human World’s legacy, he wanted to protect the whole Human World!

Even if Su Yang hurriedly sent people into the World Melting Furnace now, how many could he send in?

Once the Eight Realms launched their attack, an estimated 99.9% of the Human World would likely die horrifically.

By then, with only a few people left, would that count as preserving the Human World’s legacy? Would the Human World still be considered an existence?

Seeing Su Yang’s unchanged expression, the Martial Champion sighed softly and said, ”Su Alliance Leader, this situation is different from usual. Now is not the time to consider how to save everyone in the Human World. Sometimes, choices must be made. If you want to save everyone, you might not be able to save anyone. To achieve great things, one cannot hesitate in the least. Your hesitation might lead to a situation where not even a spark of the Human World is preserved!”

Su Yang suddenly awakened. He looked at the Martial Champion and nodded vigorously: ”Senior Zhang, I understand, thank you for the reminder!”

”Alright, off you go!” The Martial Champion waved his hand: ”From today, the Zhang Family will isolate itself again. My Zhang Family will not get involved with the Eight Realms, and the Eight Realms will not attack us easily!”

Su Yang remained silent; he understood the Martial Champion’s protective nature. In fact, the Martial Champion was originally a member of the Demon Realm and had no obligation to help the Human World. It was understandable that he wanted to consider his own family’s safety.

Even if the Eight Realms entered the Human World, they definitely would not provoke the Martial Champion.

After all, a Sub-Saint, even in the Nine Realms, could walk sideways. Who would dare provoke a Sub-Saint?

Back at Qinghe Academy, the headmaster and others were waiting anxiously.

”Su Yang, how did it go?” Su Zhan came out as well, his face full of worry. Given the current situation in the Human World, even Su Zhan could not remain calm.

Su Yang repeated the Martial Champion’s words, and the faces of everyone became even gloomier.

If even the Martial Champion said so, the situation in the Human World was truly perilous.

”Are we just going to wait here for the destruction of the Human World?” The headmaster’s eyes were filled with despair, having guarded the Human World for thousands of years, only to reach this end?

Su Yang sighed. Though he did not want to answer, right now, the situation in the Human World was indeed like that!

After pondering for a while, Su Yang suddenly spoke sternly: ”Our Human World will not perish just like that. The Martial Champion was right. Regardless, it will still take some time for them to enter the Human World. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can at least preserve some legacy for the Human World!”

Everyone straightened up and looked at Su Yang in unison: ”Su Alliance Leader, what do you plan to do?”

Su Yang looked at the eight stone coffins and said solemnly: ”I need someone to guard here, to protect these eight stone coffins, and to buy as much time as possible for the Human World. Then, I will open the World Melting Furnace and try to get more people into it to preserve the legacy of the Human World. After that, I’ll take the World Melting Furnace to the depths of Storm Valley. This way, even if the Nine Realms Saints came, they couldn’t seize the World Melting Furnace.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded. The headmaster said excitedly: ”Yes, inside the World Melting Furnace is a massive world, much larger than the Human World. Our Human World’s members can continue to live and reproduce within it. When their strength grows to a certain level, they can return and reclaim the Human World!”

”That’s right, it’s the best plan!”

”To preserve the legacy of the Human World!”

”I am willing to guard here. Unless I fall in battle, no one from the Eight Realms will leave!”

”I am also willing to guard here!”

The continuous roars from the crowd, as everyone expressed their willingness to stay and guard these eight stone coffins.

Su Yang observed the expressions of those present, mostly members of Qinghe Academy. These elders had been at Qinghe Academy for at least several hundred years, some even for thousands.

These elders have always protected the Human World. At this last moment, they have no thought of escape. Instead, they choose to stand guard here, knowing well they would meet their demise. Knowing that staying here meant no hope of leaving. Yet, their unwavering spirit is truly admirable!

Su Yang looked at the headmaster and said solemnly: ”Headmaster, for the task of preserving the legacy of the Human World, you lead the people of Qinghe Academy. I will guard here...”

”What nonsense!” The headmaster interrupted Su Yang: ”This is a task for your young generation. We old bones, how long do we have left? What achievements can we still accomplish? Standing guard here would be our last contribution to the Human World. While you are the ones most likely to surpass the Eight Realms and achieve sainthood. If you perish here, what hope remains for the Human World?”

”But...” Su Yang urgently voiced.

”But nothing!” The headmaster said loudly: ”No buts! From this moment onward, everyone at Qinghe Academy will guard this place and not depart. Su Yang, while you may be the leader of the Human World, you are also a student of Qinghe Academy. I am several thousand years your senior, and this time, I command you to lead the people into the World Melting Furnace to preserve the legacy of the Human World!”

Su Yang stared wide-eyed at the headmaster, reading the resolve in the headmaster’s determined eyes. Even if Su Yang wanted to stay, the headmaster would never agree!
