Chapter 440: The Two-Pronged Solution, Redeeming Oneself Through Service!

"You came for that little Beichen, right?"

Slay Dragon King gave a half-smile, staring at Su Yu; under Slay Dragon King's gaze, Su Yu couldn't help but startle.

In Slay Dragon King's gaze, Su Yu felt as if everything about him had been seen through.

Su Yu scratched his head and said.

"How did you know, Teacher?"

"In Mie Long Cheng there's nothing I don't know; from the moment that little Beichen stepped into Mie Long Cheng, I began to pay attention to him!"

Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said.

"Why are you paying attention to Beichen, Teacher?"

Slay Dragon King glanced at Su Yu, gave a slight smile, and said.

"What? I can't pay attention to others?"

Su Yu chuckled and remained silent.

Slay Dragon King continued.

"Alright, dealing with Chen Tian Wang isn't that simple; this guy's seniority is so high that even the Three Emperors couldn't figure out how to execute him."

Upon hearing Slay Dragon King's words, Su Yu's brows furrowed slightly and he said in a low voice.

"Teacher, if Chen Tian Wang is executed, what will happen to Beichen? Beichen is, after all, a pride of the Human Race; if he suffers a setback because of this, it would also be a loss for our Daxia!"

"Heh, you're a bit biased toward kin over reason!"

Su Yu startled, then realized his earlier remark was rather inappropriate.

Slay Dragon King slowly rose to his feet.

"The Three Emperors don't know how to execute Chen Tian Wang because his seniority is comparable to theirs."

"So those three old fellows tossed this problem to me!"

Upon hearing Slay Dragon King's words, Su Yu's eyes lit up, waiting for what he would say next.

Sure enough, Slay Dragon King spoke with some hesitation.

"By rights, Chen Tian Wang is a traitor to the Human Race; I should have just killed him. But although he's a traitor, his hostility is directed only at me."

"According to the investigation by those three old fellows, although Chen Tian Wang betrayed the Human Race, he never passed any of our secrets to the Ten Thousand Races; in the end, his betrayal is still because of me!"

Listening to Slay Dragon King's words, Su Yu felt somewhat puzzled.

"Because of you, Teacher? Why?"

Su Yu couldn't understand why, because of Slay Dragon King, Chen Tian Wang would betray the Human Race.

Could it be that my teacher wiped out Chen Tian Wang's entire family?

Slay Dragon King gave Su Yu a sideways glance, as if seeing through his thoughts.

"Alright, although I have slaughtered countless of the Ten Thousand Races, I am still relatively mild toward the Human Race."

"In terms of seniority, Chen Tian Wang should be above me. In his era, he overshadowed the entire age, truly a pride of heaven."

"But... as Slay Dragon King spoke, his expression turned somewhat strange: 'Since I was born, that guy has been left far behind by me, perhaps because he couldn't let go of his grudge, and he has always harbored a dislike toward me.'"

"Upon reaching the Sealing King realm, he should have become the Human Race's fourth Half-Emperor, but due to the inner demon in his heart, he has remained stuck at the Five-step Sealing King, unable to advance."

"It is likely because of this that the Ten Thousand Races caught him in a loophole, promising Chen Tian Wang that if he killed me, he would dispel his inner demon and thus ascend to the Emperor Realm!"

"The result... you also know, it didn't succeed!"

Slay Dragon King said with feeling.

This matter, Slay Dragon King only recently learned of it.

Never would I have thought that, because of me alone, it would make people think that the veteran Human Race Sealing Kings had betrayed.

After hearing this, Su Yu's expression showed a slight astonishment.

Good grief, I had thought there was some deep grudge between my teacher and Chen Tian Wang, but it turns out it's just because my teacher is too extreme.

This caused the inner demon left in Chen Tian Wang's heart.

And for Chen Tian Wang to break that inner demon, the best way is to kill Slay Dragon King.

That's why he colluded with the Ten Thousand Races.

But this was solely for that purpose; regarding other matters of the Human Race, Chen Tian Wang did not inform the Ten Thousand Races.

If we set aside the identities of Human Race and Ten Thousand Races, Chen Tian Wang's actions aren't really wrong.

But... in a world like the Ten Thousand Races Continent, having no identity is impossible.

Even if one is in the neutral City of Carnage, they still possess their own identity.

Otherwise, Zhao Tianxing wouldn't have relied on Su Yu's hand to lend aid.

Su Yu sighed inwardly, looked at Slay Dragon King, and said.

"So, Teacher, how do you plan to deal with Chen Tian Wang?"

Slay Dragon King sat loosely on the steps and said.

"Dealing with this guy would make me seem petty; what do you think is the best way?"

Slay Dragon King threw the problem to Su Yu.

Su Yu fell silent; from the perspective of Daxia, it would be best to execute him, after all, if Human Race traitors aren't executed.

Wouldn't that give others with ulterior motives among the Human Race an opportunity?

But if we execute him, what about Beichen's side?

Su Yu instantly fell into a dilemma.

Slay Dragon King gave Su Yu a deep look, shook his head, and said.

"You silly kid, you're fixated on appearances!"

Upon hearing SlayDragon King's words, Su Yu's body shuddered violently.

Su Yu lifted his head and looked at the Slay Dragon King.

To his surprise, the Slay Dragon King, at some unknown moment, pulled a large cigar out of the Space Ring.

He placed it in his mouth and took a hard puff.

He exhaled a swirl of haze and then said lightly.

"There are many ways to handle it, and it can also be a case of atoning by merit, understand?"

Su Yu's eyes brightened.

"The teacher means..."

The Slay Dragon King sneered and said.

"Since those three old fellows asked me to handle it, I'll do it my way."

"Send King Chen Tian to the Qian Kun Cavern; only by seizing a Star Ore Vein for the Human Race can he qualify to restore normalcy!"

The Slay Dragon King said calmly.

In theory, snatching a Star Ore Vein is simple, but in practice it's exceptionally difficult.

The Star Ore Vein can be called a strategic‑level resource of the Continent of Myriad Races; each time in the Qian Kun Cavern, the fiercest battle is the scramble for the Star Ore Vein.

Even a King-Conferred Strong One might fall there.

Moreover, at that time, the Human Race would be facing the entire Myriad Races' Marquises and even King-Conferred Strong Ones.

It's not easy at all; otherwise the Human Race wouldn't be without even a single Star Ore Vein.

Su Yu looked at his teacher and smiled faintly.

What a clever move!

If King Chen Tian falls in the Qian Kun Cavern, then he dies for the Human Race, and all prior matters can be nullified.

But if he emerges alive with the Star Ore Vein, King Chen Tian can also atone by merit honorably.

The worries on the Northern Star side have been completely dispelled.

After understanding, Su Yu chuckled.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Having said that, Su Yu ran straight out of the palace.

Seeing Su Yu's frantic demeanor, the Slay Dragon King smiled faintly, his eyes softened.

"Sure enough, he's that guy's child; the temperament is exactly the same!"
