Chapter 1584: Secrets Everywhere (3)
"Don't do anything rash."
Wan Tiansheng rolled his eyes and said, "Doing this would only lose you the support of Great Qin King and the others. They wouldn't give you the chance to perform your investigation. Those who were supportive of you would be forced to stand against you. Even if you did manage to drag the traitor out, the other Invincibles would still be displeased at the manner with which you had conducted the matter. This concerns the dignity of a race. Don't do anything stupid."
Some of the older Invincibles cared a lot about that. They could accept an investigation about the traitor. They could even bow to Su Yu if he was strong enough to achieve that by giving all of them a beating personally. No matter what, he was a human.
But forcing them to take action with a bunch of non-humans would not create a favorable result even if that was done for humanity's best.
They couldn't allow the precedent to happen. What if a different human were to return with a bunch of immortals some other day? Were they supposed to relent as well?
Su Yu thought about it and nodded, "You're right, Principal. I didn't think things through. At times, it might not be a good thing to use too much force."
"Exactly."
When the two reached Grandstar City, Wan Tiansheng added, "I'll give you a simple lesson in the manipulation of laws. I won't teach you more. I can only open the door for you. As for your future path, that relies on yourself. Remember. All treasures, all supports, all external power, are not comparable to your personal strength in reliability."
He looked at Su Yu and solemnly said, "You have a strong foundation. A terrifyingly strong foundation. However, you growth has also been too rapid. You have not gotten the chance to properly accumulate and digest experience. From your physical strength alone, you are already comparable to some sixth or seventh-degree Eternals. With that source soul acupoint, you can even contend against eighth or ninth-degree Eternals. You are better than me in all this. But do you believe me if I say that in a fight to the death, I have a far higher chance of winning against you?"
Su Yu nodded and said, "Physical strength won't matter if I can't even land a hit. You only need to land enough attacks on me to slowly kill him. But I have the Death Realm. I can escape there at any time and you won't be able to do much to me there."
Wan Tiansheng rolled his eyes. What was the point of mentioning that?
Su Yu grinned and added, "Also, you are still not strong enough to kill me with one hit. You probably require around a thousand or so hits to kill me."
