81: Chapter 81 High-Ranking Traitor?
With the strength of the Great Xia Kingdom military, coupled with the experts from top institutions like Capital Martial Arts University,
cleaning up a cult organization should not be a difficult task.
Hearing Su Yu's question,
Vice Principal Nie Changkong let out a bitter laugh.
He shook his head, his tone revealing a deep sense of helplessness and powerlessness.
"It cannot be cleared out."
"The actions of the Abyss Cult are exceptionally cautious."
"They are like mice hiding in dark corners. The moment there is any disturbance, they will immediately cut off all connections and go completely underground."
"And..."
Vice Principal Nie Changkong paused.
He raised his head and looked at Su Yu.
A trace of extremely covert yet hair-raising dread flashed through his eyes.
"The most crucial thing is."
"Among the upper echelons of our Human Race..."
"There should be traitors corrupted by the abyss!!!"
Boom!
This sentence was like a sudden clap of thunder on a flat ground.
It exploded resoundingly in Su Yu's ears!
Su Yu fell silent.
In his transparent and profound eyes, a trace of intense ripples surged for the first time.
The upper echelons corrupted?!
What does this mean?
This means that the seemingly indestructible defense line of the Great Xia Kingdom has long been riddled with holes internally!
It means you will never know whether the comrades, commanders, and even those high-and-mighty big figures standing beside you
are still human at all!
"To think it's this dangerous?"
Su Yu's voice carried a rare solemnity.
He originally thought that as long as his strength was strong enough, he could walk unhindered in this world.
But now it seems,
the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light,
and it is impossible to guard against!
"It is even more dangerous than you imagine!"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong took a deep breath, his expression unprecedentedly serious.
"Su Yu."
"Your talent is too freakish!"
"An eighteen-year-old Form-Manifesting Spear Intent, Martial King-level Mental Energy, and that unimaginable Cultivation speed!"
"If the upper echelons of the Abyss Cult find out your true background,"
"they will definitely go completely crazy!"
"Even at the cost of exposing a few Advanced dark agents lurking in the military, they will spare no expense to mobilize powerhouses at the Martial King or even Martial Emperor level to completely kill you!"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong pressed both hands on Su Yu's shoulders.
His tone revealed an unquestionable firmness.
"Therefore,"
"usually in school, try not to display your true strength!"
"What you display to the outside world should only be the Form-Manifesting Spear Intent and one thousand points of Qi!"
"Your Mental Energy must absolutely not be exposed!"
"That terrifying 120,000 Qi must be hidden tightly!"
"A tree standing out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!"
"Before you truly possess the strength to suppress everything, keeping a low profile is your only life-saving talisman!"
Su Yu nodded slightly.
Of course he understood this reasoning.
Biding one's time and developing in secret is the absolute truth.
Only when his source blood breaks through to millions or tens of millions, and when his Mental Energy reaches the Martial God level,
will he truly fear no assassination from any force.
"However,"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong changed the subject.
He looked at Su Yu, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Since you have already attracted the attention of the Abyss Cult,"
"it is too dangerous to go out and act using your current identity."
"Didn't you complain that the bounty mission rewards in school are too low and want to take those high-value missions worth over 100 million?"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong pondered for a moment.
"I will apply for another identity for you."
"A shadow identity completely independent of the Capital Martial Arts University System with no past records."
"It will be convenient for you to accept high-value bounties in the future, hunt ferocious beasts outside, and earn resources."
Vice Principal Nie Changkong sighed.
His tone carried a hint of apology.
"Actually, with your current talent, I should have directly applied to the Principal to tilt all the top resources of Capital Martial Arts University onto you."
"Allowing you to sprint towards the Martial King and Martial Emperor Realms in the shortest possible time."
"However,"
"I have no way to apply for you temporarily."
"Because once a massive amount of top resources inexplicably flow to a freshman,"
"it will definitely attract the attention of those traitors lurking in the dark!"
"In case you enter the eyes of those high-level traitors,"
"they might stop at nothing to strangle you to death!"
"I cannot use your life to gamble!"
Listening to Vice Principal Nie Changkong's explanation,
a trace of understanding flashed through Su Yu's profound eyes.
He did not care about the resources of Capital Martial Arts University.
Because he had the System.
As long as he had money, he could infinitely deduce and infinitely grow stronger!
No matter how many resources Capital Martial Arts University gave, could it be as fast as him spending 100 million in a single second?
"I understand."
Su Yu's tone was calm.
"When can the shadow identity be completed?"
"Tomorrow morning at the latest!"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong said decisively.
"I will use my private authority to bypass all conventional review Systems and directly enter this identity into the top-secret database of the Great Xia Kingdom."
"Except for me and the Principal, no one can find out the true background of this identity!"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong bent down.
With one hand, he picked up the unconscious Shadow Blade on the ground.
"I am taking this person away."
"I will interrogate him personally to see if I can pry out other strongholds of the Abyss Cult in the capital from his mouth."
"You hurry back to school for classes and maintain a normal state."
"Remember my words."
"Hide your trump cards well!"
"Before the freshman exchange tournament begins, do not stir up any more big commotions!"
Saying this, Vice Principal Nie Changkong's expression turned stern, and his tone became incomparably strict.
"Also, starting today, you absolutely cannot live off-campus anymore!"
"The outside world is a hundred times more dangerous than you imagine!"
"The enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, making it impossible to guard against!"
"I have already applied for it for you. You will move into the freshman apartment of Capital Martial Arts University tonight. There is a school-protecting grand array guarding it, and Martial Kings patrol it twenty-four hours a day. It is one of the safest places in our Dragon Country."
"Without my permission, or without the shadow identity as cover, absolutely do not step half a step out of the Capital Martial Arts University gates!"
Vice Principal Nie Changkong gave repeated instructions, and finally shoved a student card into Su Yu's hand before breathing a slight sigh of relief.
He picked up the unconscious Shadow Blade on the ground with one hand.
His figure flashed, directly transforming into a meteor tearing through the night sky, and disappeared into the vast night.
Outside the gates of Capital Martial Arts University,
tranquility was restored once again.
Su Yu stood under the street lamp.
The night breeze blew against the corners of his clothes.
He raised his head and glanced at the profound night sky. In his transparent eyes, a glimmer of contemplation flashed.
The Abyss Cult?
High-level traitors?
Pervasive assassinations?
Su Yu narrowed his eyes slightly.
It seemed that this world was much more dangerous than he had imagined.
He originally thought that with the System, as long as his Qi and Cultivation Technique improved fast enough, he could walk unhindered in this world without restraint.
But now it seemed that even if he could instantly kill a Grandmaster, facing those massive forces lurking in the dark that might deploy Martial Spirits or even Martial Kings at any time, he was still at a disadvantage.
Before truly possessing the absolute strength to ignore all rules and suppress the entire Human Race, blindly high profile would only bring endless trouble.
Biding one's time and developing in secret is the absolute truth.
"The top priority right now is to wait for the 100 billion cash from the Chen family to arrive."
Su Yu calculated silently in his heart.
As soon as the money arrived,
and poured entirely into the System, that would be a full 100 billion years of cultivation!
Once he completely digested this extremely massive resource, even facing a real Martial Emperor personally entering the fray, he could remain undefeated.
Su Yu withdrew his gaze and turned around.
With steady steps, he walked toward the freshman apartment inside the school.
Since Vice Principal Nie Changkong told him to keep a low profile usually and maintain a normal state,
then he would just do things a freshman should do.
Tomorrow, he would go to school first and casually attend some class.
By the way, he would see if there were any suitable Heaven Rank martial arts in the classrooms of this number-one institution of the Great Xia Kingdom.
