Chapter 1042: Prelude To Chaos (3)
Finally, peace returned.
Silence enveloped the entire city. Outside, only a boundless sea could be seen. After all, the Ninestar Island had been destroyed. Not a single person appeared from the nine realm entrances. They had likely sealed their realm entrances from the other side.
Thus, peace had returned to not only the ancient city, but the entire region as well. Not a single living being could be seen in the area. The auras of the Invincibles who were present earlier were still around.
Meanwhile, the various realms were shocked.
The Heavenly Hunt Pavilion started selling the latest update.
According to the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, the Invincibles had charged into Grandstar City. A large number of death sovereigns appeared. Ultimately, nine Sunmoons died alongside the tri-life bodies of the Invincibles.
Additionally, several names had vanished from the Heavenly Hunt Index. Not a single Heaven Index genius had died, but a decent number of Earth Index and Profound Index geniuses had perished.
The trigger for that disaster was the disappearance of Su Yu's name from the index. Of the two human Invincibles, one had gone mad and started attacking the city while the other had charged right into the city, forcing the other Invincibles to rush inside as well.
That triggered the appearance of the guardians, bringing the Invincibles incomparably close to death. With the departure of the Invincibles, the city had been sealed yet again. A large number of geniuses and late-stage Sunmoons were still trapped in the city. However, it was unlikely that any Invincible would have the courage to save these people anymore.
Losing Sunmoons and geniuses was better than losing Invincibles. It had been too many years since someone mustered enough courage to attack an ancient city. The story about the Invincible who had died in an ancient city had basically turned into a myth. But this incident had reminded all the Invincibles that these ancient cities were not to be provoked lightly.
If they really wanted to do that, they needed at least thirty Invincibles working together. The appearance of the thirty-six stone statues had greatly shocked numerous Invincibles. With this, they were finally certain that all these ancient cities were related to each other.
The relationship between the stone statues and the death spirits also seemed very complicated. Not once had the death sovereigns attacked the stone statues nor would the stone statues attack the death spirits unless rules were broken.
The entire incident caused by Su Yu had attracted the attention of the entire Myriad Realms.
Ninestar Island had ceased existing.
Numerous lives were lost on the island, including Sunmoons and Mountainseas. But...was Su Yu really dead?
Nobody knew.

"I'm rich!"
Su Yu hurriedly pushed a death spirit aside while cursing. Before him was a massive Sunmoon corpse. This Sunmoon was a shark, but its massive head had been destroyed. Meanwhile, its entire body was filled with death qi.
But it did not matter. For Su Yu, this was still a treasure. Since everything had happened so quickly, the storage ring of this expert was probably still around as well. After putting the corpse away, Su Yu picked up the nearby medallions. He was in a great mood. He was basically picking up money from the ground.
Sure, he was already rich before this, but nobody would say no to more money. That was the corpse of a Sunmoon between the second and the third stages. Even without a head, this was still quite a bountiful harvest.
Then, he continued striding forth, pushing aside any death spirits in his way without any fear. He was acting like this was his home. He had grown a lot more brazen than before. As a resident, what was there to fear?
Since he was a resident, wasn't the city as good as his? From now on, this place would have to play by his rules. This was his new home. As for the death spirits, they were naturally his beloved city guards.
His mood became exceptionally good. Thanks to his optimism, he was having the time of his life while roaming the streets. The mass of death spirits felt extremely pleasing to his eyes. He even patted one of them on the head, muttering something like: Good guard! Nice work!

Mayor's residence.
Death Sovereign Xing Yue observed Su Yu for a while before saying, "He is born to be a death spirit."
Holy shit!
Xing Yue had never seen such a bold resident before. That fellow had left his building to pick up the spoils on the ground while there were still so many death spirits around. He even patted the head of one of the death spirits, stunning that death spirit with his bold action.
Had anyone ever treated a death spirit like this before? These death spirits were the incarnation of death They were not kittens or puppies. Grandstar did not feel like saying anything. This was the most unique resident he had ever seen.
After looking at the badly injured mayor, Xing Yue said, "Are you not going to make Su Yu the next mayor?"
Grandstar remained silent. The dark devil dragon was nearly killed during the previous incident. He was still alive, but his death qi was starting to enter his heart. At this rate, he would turn into a death spirit before long.
Perhaps...he really needed to start looking for the next mayor. But was Su Yu really a suitable choice? Would that fellow bring even more trouble to the city after becoming a mayor?
Grandstar was unsure. He did not know what he should do with this human.
He didn't even know what to say about the chaos that had erupted out of nowhere.
