Supreme Warrior in the City
Chapter 2471: The Sinister Guardian God
"So!" The man nodded and continued, "The reason those Guardian Gods haven’t invaded the Land of Chaos is because the terrain within the Land of Chaos is too complicated, with too many branches, easy to defend but hard to attack. If they forcibly advance, they could indeed wipe out the Human Clan and the Demon Beast Clan, but they would have to pay a heavy price. Therefore, they’ve never launched an invasion. But just because they don’t attack doesn’t mean they’ve spared these Human and Demon Beast clans. On the contrary, they are constantly devising ways to deal with these Human and Demon Beast clans."
"They have sent many Beast Tamers into the Land of Chaos to monitor the Human Clan and Demon Beast Clan within, observing the situation here. If you take away too many Saint Emperors, it will cause these Beast Tamers to notice something amiss, and once they report back to the Guardian Gods, it might trigger them to act prematurely, which is the biggest issue!"
"So that’s how it is!" Su Yang nodded slowly. It seems there’s no way to take away a large number of Saint Emperors.
But, more than two thousand Saint Emperors don’t hold much significance either.
Su Yang is quite familiar with the situation of that Great World because he owns a complete map of it. Among the Demon Beast Clan of that Great World, the Saint Emperor Realm experts number in the hundreds of thousands. The Guardian Gods only have more of them.
Under such conditions, Su Yang taking just over two thousand Saint Emperors to resist the Guardian Gods is nothing short of a fool’s talk.
However, Su Yang isn’t too anxious because he has thought about the Demon Beast Clan. Perhaps he could think of a way to unite the Demon Beast Clan to confront the Guardian Gods.
After all, once the Guardian Gods take control of everything, they not only need to deal with the Human Clan but also the Demon Beast Clan. The Demon Beast Clan was similarly driven into the Land of Chaos; once the Human Clan is defeated, the next to fall would be the Demon Beast Clan. The Guardian Gods can’t possibly allow anyone to stand equal with them!
"Also, what do you think about the Spiritual Birth Day that occurs once every hundred years in the Land of Chaos?" the man asked.
"How did it come about?" Su Yang asked curiously; he was quite interested in this matter.
Previously, he thought the main branch in the Land of Chaos would naturally generate a Spiritual Source. Now that he knows the Spirit Birthplace is merely a wormhole, he can’t understand what these Spiritual Sources are all about.
"Think carefully, how do you think these Spiritual Sources came to be?" the man asked with a smile.
Su Yang pondered for a while, his expression suddenly changed, and he said solemnly, "Could it be the Guardian Gods?"
"Hahaha..." The man laughed, "You’re just as clever as your mother, you figured it out quickly. Correct, these Spiritual Sources were deliberately thrown in by the Guardian Gods."
Su Yang’s expression changed further. Although he guessed correctly, his heart was extremely cold. The methods of the Guardian Gods are truly terrifying.
"There is no Spiritual Energy or Spiritual Source within the Land of Chaos. The Guardian Gods forced these Human and Demon Beast clans’ experts into the Land of Chaos to make us cower here, too afraid to confront them." The man said, "But if there were never any Spiritual Sources here, people would completely lose hope. Desperate individuals often lead to explosive struggles. If the Human Clan and Demon Beast Clan’s experts utterly despair, unite and charge out, the Guardian Gods would have to pay a significant price to resolve it."
"The Guardian Gods don’t regard other life forms as lives; they only see themselves as superior. Thus, they don’t want to pay too high a price to deal with us. They wish to resolve us at the lowest cost. And these Guardian Gods thought of this method—to throw Spiritual Sources into the Land of Chaos, giving the experts a thread of hope, so they wouldn’t unite and charge outward."
"Every hundred years, the Guardian Gods don’t provide many Spiritual Sources—just enough for seventy percent of the population in the main branch of the Land of Chaos to survive. Thus, people must fight desperately for these Spiritual Sources. The ultimate outcome is that it leads to internal strife and depletion between the Human Clan and Demon Beast Clan. This way, they slowly consume each other, with the Guardian Gods needing little effort until most are exhausted. To illustrate, the number of Saint Emperors in the Land of Chaos is less than ten percent of those who initially entered. Think about how many Saint Emperors have perished due to the Guardian Gods’ schemes over the years!"
Su Yang’s expression was somber. He knew the Guardian Gods were ruthless, but their actions made him exceptionally angry.
The Guardian Gods don’t even want to come in to kill personally. It’s like a beast fight, throwing in some Spiritual Sources, making the Saint Emperors struggle like beasts. And those Guardian Gods, externally, watching and laughing like a beast fight—they don’t even consider these beings as life!
"Given this, why not inform the Saint Emperors here?" Su Yang said urgently, "We can’t let them continue to waste like this!"
"What good would it do to inform the Saint Emperors here?" The man shook his head, "Even if these Saint Emperors unite, they’re not opponents for the Guardian Gods. Conversely, if they unite now, it would make the Guardian Gods act prematurely, leading to the complete extermination of the Human Clan and Demon Beast Clan. For us, this holds no significance. What we need most now is time. We must wait for the right timing to combat the Guardian Gods. Hence, even if we know about the Spiritual Birth Day, we should not tell those inside. We still need to confuse the Guardian Gods!"
Su Yang froze for a moment. The man’s words were indeed right. The most crucial thing is to buy time—the effort his mother made was precisely to buy time.
The reason for buying time is unknown to Su Yang. He thought perhaps it was related to the Nine Realms. After all, this man had said before, the key to the Human Clan’s comeback lies in the Nine Realms!
"Only by being powerful can you protect everyone." The man said softly, "It’s better to focus on enhancing your strength than to think too much. That’s the most important thing. Remember, once you leave here, first return to your Great World and clean it up—that’s your task!"
Su Yang nodded slowly. In this Land of Chaos, he truly can’t do much, but what he can do now is to handle the issue within his Great World. His mother fought for the entire Human Clan, so his goal can’t be as simple as the Nine Realms!
