Chapter 384

The pirate captain immediately signaled for his subordinates to retreat.

But Su Yu didn't want to let them go. He took out a Magic Card and, coordinating with his life-bound beast, firmly trapped the group in place.

Su Yu used an Ancient-grade Magic Card, which had auxiliary attributes.

The moment Su Yu produced the card, dozens of twisted green vines, as thick as arms, sprouted from the ground where the pirate team members stood. Following Su Yu’s guidance, they firmly wrapped around their legs.

Many members who tried to break free tripped because their legs were bound by the vines, their upper bodies falling to the ground in a pathetic and miserable state.

Su Yu didn't even look at the group struggling desperately. He walked a few steps toward the pirate captain, stopped in front of him, and said.

"You’re at the early-stage of Domain Lord, right?"

As soon as he said this, the pirate captain felt a chill run down his spine.

Could Lin Li have lied to him? This person was definitely more than just Star Spirit level; otherwise, it would be impossible to restrain so many of his subordinates so easily.

The captain didn't dare to move, took a deep breath, and said.

"Yes. You... you wouldn't be at the Demigod level, would you?"

Su Yu’s gaze held a hint of mystery, not giving the pirate captain an answer. But the more he did this, the more curious and terrified the captain became.

He had actually provoked a Demigod-level powerhouse!

The pirate captain’s knees went weak, and he knelt down straight. He knew that his life was the most important thing; what were dignity and backbone worth? So he began to kowtow while crying out.

"Spare me! It was I who had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. I won't tell anyone that the Xunfa Secret Realm is with you, you can rest assured..."

Su Yu’s gaze sharpened.

"When did I say the Xunfa Secret Realm was in my hands?"

The pirate captain was stunned, then suddenly remembered something and began kowtowing to the ground again.

"Yes... yes, actually I was just guessing, because that day only you and those three people went to the tunnel."

Su Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"How did you know that?"

"Someone told me all of this..."

"Who?"

The captain’s expression went blank, struggling to recall.

"I forgot... that person seemed to be wearing a mask, I couldn't see his face clearly."

Su Yu knew he wouldn't get anything more out of this person, so he withdrew the auxiliary Magic Card, and the vines binding the seven people’s hands and feet instantly retracted.

It wasn't that Su Yu didn't want to kill the pirate captain, but their strength was only a small gap apart. It would be no problem to severely injure the opponent, but killing him wouldn't be so easy.

It was better to let the pirate captain live in fear of him, ensuring more peace in the future.

Su Yu spat out one word.

"Scram!"

The pirate captain quickly said yes, called his subordinates to retreat to the ship, and ran away as fast as he could.

As the ship left, the space collapsed. When Su Yu opened his eyes again, he found himself lying on the sofa. He hadn't been lying there long before the door was knocked on again.

Su Yu was annoyed and didn't want to deal with it, but the knocking grew louder and heavier. When Su Yu stood up impatiently, the door was literally torn off by the person outside and thrown to the side.

Su Yu stared eye-to-eye with the person outside.

The person outside was Lin Li, who looked as if he had seen a ghost upon seeing Su Yu and took several sharp steps back.

· ········Seeking flowers···· ········

Su Yu glanced at the dismantled door and was amused, his expression not exactly friendly.

"Come in and sit."

This was a command. Lin Li stood frozen, looking at the unscathed Su Yu in shock.

"How... how are you here?"

Su Yu spread his hands.

"Is it that strange?"

Su Yu saw Lin Li’s expression and suddenly said.

"I beat your boss up. They just boarded their ship and rolled out of Star; they’re probably already parked in space."

Lin Li’s face turned pale instantly. He shook his head, looking at Su Yu as if he were a ghost.

0 ..... ...

"How is that possible! Aren't you at the high-stage of Star Spirit? How could you beat the Captain?"

Su Yu raised an eyebrow: "Why is it impossible..." He glanced at Lin Li’s face and added, "If you want to fight me, you should at least prepare yourself, right? Who told you I was still at the high-stage of Star Spirit?"

Lin Li’s lips twitched.

Not just high-stage Star Spirit? That meant Su Yu was actually a Domain Lord-level figure! He had felt he couldn't see through Su Yu’s cultivation from the start, thinking he was just a small stage higher than himself. He never expected him to have jumped a whole major stage in such a short time!

This realization made him both excited and jealous.

How did Su Yu jump from Star Spirit to Domain Lord? The only possibility was the secret realm he had obtained.

...If he could also obtain the Xunfa Secret Realm, could he soon trample Su Yu under his feet?

After all, Su Yu’s talent level was the same as his—both SSS-grade.

Su Yu saw Lin Li’s face gradually beginning to twist, frowned, and stepped back quietly.

Lin Li quickly adjusted his expression and said quite politely.

"So the pirate group already found you. I thought..."

Su Yu looked at Lin Li with a blank expression and told him to put his door back on.

But Lin Li stood there, not moving an inch, as if he hadn't heard Su Yu, a crazy light flickering in his eyes.

"Give it to me... the Xunfa Secret Realm... give it to me."

Su Yu suddenly felt that the current Lin Li was like a vengeful spirit. He was muttering for him to hand over the Xunfa Secret Realm, but Su Yu would never let anyone know it was in his hands.

Su Yu frowned and cursed him under his breath, then leaned against the doorframe, watching Lin Li’s near-maniacal state: "What Xunfa Secret Realm? Never heard of it."

"You’re still playing dumb?" Lin Li asked, but then felt his tone was too aggressive and feared provoking Su Yu into teaching him a lesson on the spot, so he changed his tone: "I mean, you don't have to pretend you didn't get the Xunfa Secret Realm. After all, this is common knowledge throughout the Baiyi Civilized Ancient Kingdom."

Su Yu frowned: "What did you say?"

"You don't know?" The smile on Lin Li’s lips had a hint of schadenfreude. "Though not everyone knows. In the Baiyi Civilized Ancient Kingdom, only the upper echelons know this news. It won't be long before they all attack you together."

"Did you tell them?" A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Su Yu’s face; he didn't intend to let Lin Li go anymore.

Lin Li clearly didn't notice Su Yu’s change, thinking he had something to threaten Su Yu with, and remained immersed in his fantasy: "Give me the Xunfa Secret Realm, and I’ll help you bear the pain of being hunted."

Once these words were out, not only Su Yu, but Diluoluo and Gale Thunder wanted to laugh.

"He really is a big dreamer. No one is better at daydreaming than him," Diluoluo commented.

Su Yu just said ambiguously.

"Are you sure? What if the people from the Baiyi Civilized Ancient Kingdom kill you to get the secret realm?"

He heard Lin Li scoff.

"Kill me? With the Xunfa Secret Realm, could they still kill me? Besides, I can escape, but you... that’s not certain."

Su Yu lowered his head and thought carefully.

Handing over the Xunfa Secret Realm was absolutely impossible, especially since he had already cleared it. If he gave it to Lin Li, Su Yu felt he would be at a huge loss.

So Su Yu slowly shook his head: "Do you think that’s possible? Besides, the Xunfa Secret Realm isn't in my hands."

Su Yu was fishing for information from Lin Li, while Lin Li was doing the same to him. Su Yu didn't know if the people of the Baiyi Civilized Ancient Kingdom knew the secret realm was in his hands, but he had to deny it, or it would bring greater disaster later.

Hearing this, a flash of doubt appeared in Lin Li’s eyes.

Why was Su Yu still denying the Xunfa Secret Realm was in his hands even now? Could the information those people gave him be wrong?

Lin Li suppressed the doubt in his heart. Su Yu’s expression was too natural and calm; he didn't see any guilt in his eyes at all.

Su Yu waited for a while, but Lin Li just kept staring at him. He gradually grew impatient and issued an ultimatum.

"Put it back."

The three words made Lin Li’s heart jump. He looked at Su Yu with desire and greed, but due to the difference in strength, he could only pick up the door and install it back.

Then Lin Li pointed behind Su Yu and asked.

"Can I come in and sit for a while?"

Su Yu looked at him coldly and slammed the door shut with a "bang."

Without Lin Li’s harassment, Su Yu could finally rest, but just as he lay down, he felt a cold wind blow across his face.

Su Yu’s skin crawled. He immediately propped himself up on the bed and scanned his surroundings vigilantly.

A few seconds later, Su Yu suddenly sensed a powerful and terrifying airflow. This airflow made his eyes ache, and his heart began to beat faster, bringing a strange sense of unease.
