Chapter 138: Number One Experimental Subject Obtained

"However, you know, in a family where power changes hands, no one can ever stay out of it; there are only the strong suppressing the weak, and certainly no such thing as the compassionate pity of a prayer. After you and I were both assassinated in succession, your father also began his counterattack."

Speaking of this, there was only pride on Mu Hanyan's face. In her eyes, her man had never once broken his vow from beginning to end, and he had practiced it his whole life. Su Xinyuan was her pride, and likewise, Mu Hanyan was Su Xinyuan's pride!

"The first time I was assassinated, luckily it was discovered in time by Old Chen, so a tragedy was averted. Because of this, your father didn't pay it much mind, thinking it was just a warning. To show his stance, your father even gathered everyone and gave up all the power in his hands, all for the sake of seeking peace."

"However, things did not develop as smoothly as imagined. This peace only lasted for a few months. When two of the remaining four heirs were out of the running, your father received an offer of alliance from one of them, but Su Xinyuan chose to refuse."

"Until one day, your father was invited to a banquet. When the banquet was halfway through, you were attacked. This attack was successfully neutralized by Su Xinyuan, who had sensed the clues beforehand. It was on that very night that your father chose to take control of the family himself."

Speaking of this, Mu Hanyan reached out to stroke the group portrait on the wall. "That night, your father said to me, 'Yan'er, I have failed you; I couldn't give you the life you wanted. But you must believe me, from today on, no one in this family will ever come to disturb us and our children again.' That night, he settled you and me in, turned, and left the courtyard."

"Five days later, when he returned again, he held the Family Head's Token in his hand, along with a blue sapphire ring that was a Space Treasure and a pink-blue gemstone space ring. He told me happily that from now on, no one would ever disturb our lives again."

"After Old Chen explained it, I realized that after your father left that night, he had dragged the others to the Su Family ancestral hall and snapped their necks with his own hands. Since then, no matter how the family power changed, you and we have always lived a stable life. It's just that..."

"Hm? Just that what?" It seemed the story wasn't over yet. Driven by curiosity, Su Yu pressed for more.

Mu Hanyan just smiled. "Actually, it's nothing, just that every time in the ancestral hall, there are always a few blind fools who end up staying there forever..."

Well, damn, it turns out his own old man wasn't such a saint either. No wonder none of these old guys had dared to move for so many years; with Old Chen around, who would be blind enough to come and throw their life away? After all, they didn't even look at who Su Xinyuan was.

The story wasn't long, but it allowed Su Yu to understand Su Xinyuan's past. Thinking of his own current situation, it wasn't much different from Su Xinyuan's now...

After saying goodbye to his mother, Su Yu returned to Mingde Hall. In his Spirit Sea, he ordered his clone: "Go to Teacher Xuan's place; someone should be waiting for you there."

After the clone Luo Yu received the message, he returned to Xuan Ziwen's laboratory and even sat in on a class. There was a Shrek student there who had been bullied miserably by Wang Shaojie, but ever since Xuan Ziwen spoke up to stop it, things had calmed down a lot.

Sure enough, not long after Luo Yu left Mingde Hall, the news reached Ju Zi's ears.

The subsequent matters were basically within expectations. Su Yu did not let his clone accept Xu Tianran's recruitment, but he did give a deadline. If he agreed too early, things wouldn't go as smoothly.

The best method was to keep Xu Tianran hanging. Only by making this arrogant man who thought he was in control of everything miscalculate would it have the greatest effect.

If Luo Yu were to join Xu Tianran's ranks later, Luo Yu would inevitably become a crucial chess piece.

As for the rest, leave it to Ju Zi. Even if Ju Zi wouldn't provide any help, as long as Ju Zi was still by Xu Tianran's side, Luo Yu would definitely infiltrate Xu Tianran's side, or even become Xu Tianran's guard, eventually controlling Xu Tianran...

By Xu Tianran's side, there was a Title Douluo, and this Title Douluo wasn't powerful to a certain degree yet, which meant his plan was still possible to execute.

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed. Now, Yi Lao had basically recovered his complete memory, but although his divine sense was stable, his strength had still not recovered.

Ever since Yi Lao woke up, Su Yu hadn't just focused on his own cultivation; instead, he would occasionally infuse his own Spirit Power into Yi Lao. For other Soul Masters, this kind of infusion of different Spirit Powers was purely courting death.

However, Yi Lao was different; he was of the same origin as Su Yu, and even attached to Su Yu.

This day, Su Yu was estimating the time himself. Thinking carefully, the time should have arrived for the Body Sect to come and smash the place up. All he had to do now was honestly dig a hole under the 1238 table and then block the hole with the table.

But obviously, it was still quiet for now. However, once danger arrived, his Fate Eye would give him a warning.

"It's probably coming soon. Get ready. Don't you dare tell me the first explosion is going to be right here at my spot."

Sure enough, the Fate Eye between his brows suddenly opened, and a strong sense of crisis continuously stimulated Su Yu's brain.

It's here, it's here, the Body Sect is here!

This was not the time to be calculating. He was fully prepared to activate the Red Dust Protection. Originally, the Red Dust Protection was the final gift Mu Lao had left for him, but Su Yu had given it to Wang Dong.

Who knew that when leaving Shrek to become an exchange student, Wang Dong worried that Su Yu would encounter danger and secretly put it back on Su Yu.

Sure enough, in the next instant, several explosions rang out one after another, and the shockwave caused by the terrifying explosion swept through Mingde Hall.

It was fortunate that Su Yu had chosen 1238, and it was at the edge. If it had been in the center, he probably would have been doomed instantly.

The explosion appeared too suddenly, so much so that the Soul Engineers at the center of the explosion didn't even have time to react and could only watch as they were swallowed by the explosion. The scope of this explosion was very wide; at least a hundred Soul Engineers were instantly vaporized at the start of the explosion.

In this Mingde Hall, which was strictly guarded by the Sun Moon Empire and regarded as the top priority, who could have expected such a terrifying attack to occur suddenly?

Over a hundred experimental tables were torn apart by the terrifying explosive force, and metal fragments scattered everywhere, turning into the most terrifying metal tide. Screams mixed with the smell of blood, and under the effect of that terrifying shockwave, they erupted outward like a fountain.

The terrifying explosion even caused the ground to shake violently. In the massive underground Soul Guidance Device production base, more than one-third of the people were affected. For a time, the Soul Engineers and students studying in Mingde Hall suffered heavy casualties.

After the explosion stopped, the people from the Body Sect appeared, and what followed was wanton destruction inside Mingde Hall.

As for Su Yu, he had long since used the ability he gained after absorbing a soul bone, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw, to dig a path under the table. As for the place he dug, it had long been blocked by Su himself.

Su Yu wasn't idle either. While Jing Hongchen of Mingde Hall and Du Busi were fighting, he dug desperately downward. According to the original work, five meters below the 1238 experimental table, there was a tunnel. Following this tunnel forward, one could find the Number One Experimental Subject.

Su Yu did not hesitate and used his fastest speed to rush out of the tunnel, finally finding the place where the Number One Experimental Subject was located.

This laboratory was very large; the circular laboratory was over a hundred meters in diameter, and the height was thirty meters. When Su Yu stepped into it, he saw the Number One Experimental Subject at a glance.

This was a huge humanoid metal body, with a height of fifteen meters. The massive body was entirely cast from metal. Although it looked a bit crude, the overall structure was already complete. The chest area was open, and there seemed to be something like a seat inside.

On this huge metal man, he actually discovered thousands of massive core arrays. Moreover, the precision of many of these core arrays was something he had never heard of.

What was even more terrifying was that this huge metal man seemed to contain an extremely terrifying energy. This energy was the metal itself.

Using the Spirit Detection copied from Huo Yu Hao, Su Yu also carefully scanned the Number One Experimental Subject inside and out.

No wonder Jing Hongchen wanted to search crazily at all costs after this thing was lost. Now it seemed that this thing was the Mecha of later generations, and could even be said to be the origin of the Battle Armor and Mecha of later generations!

Around the metal man's body, there were platforms at different heights, obviously built for processing it. On these platforms, there were signs of various soul power residues. Clearly, Mingde Hall had been experimenting for a long time, and the resources consumed in this research had reached a terrifyingly astronomical figure.

Not far away, Su Yu found the platform where the Star Light Sapphire Ring storing the Number One Experimental Subject was placed. With the deepening of his Spirit Detection, Su Yu finally found the Star Light Sapphire.

It was a piece larger than a palm, existing like a heart-protecting mirror. The surroundings were silver-white decorations, magnificently engraved with the appearance of core arrays, but the very center was a huge gemstone in the shape of a convex lens.

This gemstone itself appeared light blue, with six star lines flickering on it. That strange luster gave people a dizzying and mesmerizing feeling.

The Star Light Sapphire in front of him was still much larger than the family heirloom ring in Su Yu's hand; after all, to hold such a large thing, it needed a larger space.

Star Light Sapphire is a magical gemstone containing massive energy. This gemstone contains mysterious space power. It is the best carrier for making space-type Soul Guidance Devices.

If a piece the size of a fingernail is added to a Storage Soul Guidance Device, then the object that this Storage Soul Guidance Device can store will immediately increase by more than one cubic meter.

Star Light Sapphire itself is very precious, mainly because the output is small. But because there is nothing particularly large, the value is also limited.

This is also why the Su Family has that piece; although expensive, it is not expensive to that super outrageous degree.

"Finally found you, you bastard. If it weren't for you and Xue Di, I wouldn't have suffered like this. Heaven rewards the diligent!"

Su Yu was so moved he wanted to cry. Thinking back, in order to infiltrate Mingde Hall, he went to the Sun Moon Empire alone and practiced hard in Mingde Hall for a year and a half, even becoming Jing Hongchen's disciple. Wasn't it all for today?

The goal was achieved; for what followed, he had to prepare his disguise.

A siphon-like sensation instantly transmitted from the huge Star Light Sapphire in his hand, and Su Yu's soul power flowed away rapidly. In just an instant, one-sixth of it had disappeared.

His soul power was much stronger than Huo Yu Hao's, although in terms of Spirit Power he still couldn't beat that freak Huo Yu Hao—after all, who could compare to him? He had the million-year Tian Meng Iceworm and the four-hundred-thousand-year Ice Empress in his Spirit Sea, all turned into his Soul Rings.

As a beam of blue light shot out from the gorgeous surface of the Starlight Sapphire, the blue radiance spread outward in a radial pattern in mid-air.

The forehead of that massive metal figure also released a corresponding beam of light; the two blue lights collided in the air, and that brilliant blue instantly illuminated the entire massive laboratory.

Fortunately, this burst of blue light did not last for very long, and by the time the light receded, Number One Experimental Subject had already been loaded inside.

"Time to slip away, time to slip away; if I don't run now, it'll be too late."

After putting the Space Sapphire into his own ring, Su Yu hurriedly had Yi Lao use Simulation to make him look like Du Busi.

"Teacher, do me a favor and turn me into the likeness of Du Busi."

Su Yu did not feel the slightest panic; the current Yi Lao was enough to help him muddle through, because he did not have absolute certainty that he could imitate Du Busi by relying on his own ability to copy Huo Yu Hao's soul skill, so seeking Yi Lao's help now was the best choice.

"Very well, relax your mind and do not resist."

Yi Lao began to chant an incantation, and as Yi Lao's powerful Spirit Power covered Su Yu's entire body, Su Yu could feel that he was undergoing a change from the inside out, even though this change was fleeting.

However, Su Yu could feel that even if Du Busi himself appeared before him, he would not be able to discover any flaws.

This was the greatness of Yi Lao, striving for absolute certainty in all things; it was just that after passing the hurdle of that Body Sect Soul Douluo, Su Yu would still have to face the hurdle of Du Busi and Jing Hongchen.

However, the arrow was already on the string, and it had to be fired.

"Wealth is sought in danger; I don't care about all that, let's go!"

Su Yu quickly walked back into the corridor, and sure enough, he encountered that Soul Douluo from the Body Sect.
