Chapter 1001

~6 min read 1,035 words

When the truth gradually became clear, Su Yu naturally constructed the scene of the Giant Rhino's collapse in his mind.

The Giant Rhino Palace was smashed, looted, and burned by the citizens. The statue sat at the very top, looking at all this with compassion and helplessness. The cruelest injustice angered the citizens' fury.

"Inviting disaster," Su Yu said this term, "The ancestor was wrong. He shouldn't have used the Giant Rhino Palace as a private building, causing public anger is very normal."

"Causing public anger was something we had long anticipated, but as heirs of the Giant Rhino Palace, if we changed the last words left by the ancestor, it would be a great disrespect," a flash of resentment crossed the giant python's eyes. How could he not resent it?

Su Yu touched his chin. In that situation, caught in a dilemma, wanting to do his best to remedy it but being unable to do anything, only being able to watch everything he guarded be destroyed, was truly torturous and truly painful.

"But it's meaningless to talk about these things now," Su Yu said, "The Giant Rhino has already perished. The Giant Rhino Palace is currently related to me, but for me, it's still quite useful. It's better to let nature take its course; if it's destroyed, it's destroyed."

Who knew the giant python would stare at him the next second and say: "You are standing and talking without back pain; perhaps it's not your planet that was destroyed."

Su Yu spread his hands: "I didn't say that."

The person in white looked at them and sighed gently.

What Su Yu said was not unreasonable. To revive the Giant Rhino, how could it be a simple matter? Moreover, the group of people from the Giant Rhino back then were either dead or had fled, and there had been no news for a long time.

That evening, the giant python disappeared silently.

The person in white did not rest. He guarded the Giant Rhino Ruins, sitting alone by the river, not knowing what he was thinking. When Su Yu saw his figure, he walked up and asked him.

"Where did he go, do you know?"

Su Yu was referring to the giant python.

The person in white looked back at Su Yu, hesitated for a moment, and shook his head.

Su Yu frowned.

He could naturally see that the person in white was hiding something from him, so he stayed on the spot without moving.

When the person in white turned back and saw Su Yu still standing behind him, his eyes drooped unnaturally. Su Yu had obviously realized that he was hiding something from him, and since that was the case, there was no point in hiding it anymore.

So the person in white chose his words carefully and said slowly.

"Last night, for some reason, he suddenly vanished into smoke..."

"Vanished into smoke?" Su Yu was shocked.

For a powerhouse at the Star Spirit realm, vanishing into smoke was the most miserable outcome, but they had thousands of ways to preserve their souls, not to mention someone like the giant python, who was a super-strong Card Controller who had once stepped into the Demigod realm.

A flash of pain appeared on the person in white's face, but he quickly covered it up: "Actually, saying he vanished into smoke is not entirely correct. Like me, he left a strand of soul in the Soul-Chasing Lamp, but the soul will dissipate in ten days. If it dissipates, it will be no different from truly vanishing into smoke."

Speaking of the Soul-Chasing Lamp, Su Yu remembered the pillar-shaped torture device he had seen: "Are the ten great evil objects of the Giant Rhino really untouchable? I once saw something with spikes in a pillar shape; it is also one of the evil objects... what exactly is its effect?"

"You actually saw that thing?" The person in white's pupils suddenly dilated, "It is the head of the evil objects. Some criminals of the Giant Rhino would be put into the torture device to endure the pain of needles and bleeding. It is rumored that criminals who die in this torture device will sink into darkness forever, with no chance of turning over... where did you see it?"

Su Yu knew the pillar-shaped torture device was ominous, but he had only just learned that the outcome for those who died in it was so tragic. Steadying his mind, Su Yu said: "In the wilderness of Blue Star, it was placed by someone in the basement of an abandoned house."

The person in white said in horror: "How could it appear on Blue Star? This kind of torture device has executed so many people, the resentment is monstrous. Even people who have touched it might suffer a backlash, let alone bringing it to a place as extremely barren as Blue Star."

Seeing him describe his home planet like this, Su Yu sighed while feeling a bit horrified: "Backlash? Who would suffer a backlash?"

The person in white looked at Su Yu, thinking he was a bit panicked, and hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, as long as you didn't touch it, you won't suffer a backlash. I am referring to the person who brought it to Blue Star. Within half a month, they will definitely suffer its backlash. The most miserable consequence is vanishing into smoke!"

Once this term came out, Su Yu and the person in white were both stunned.

At this time, Su Yu seemed to remember something and asked: "Don't you think that torture device has some connection with Sebas?"

The person in white was stunned upon hearing this: "He once went to Blue Star?"

Su Yu pondered for a moment, connected all the clues in his mind, and then nodded: "Yes, he once went there to find me and almost threw me into the torture device."

"There is such a thing?" The person in white frowned, "He doesn't seem like that kind of person. Although I am not too familiar with him, I have spoken a few words to him before."

"Human hearts are easily changed. Perhaps he vanished into smoke because he touched the evil object."
