Apocalypse Of All Races

Chapter 27: Xia Longwu

Translator: Lordbluefire

Anping Calendar, Year 350, April 18.

It was the day before Su Yu and the group was scheduled to leave Nanyuan. They would all gather tomorrow morning and be escorted out of Nanyuan by the city guards and experts from the Great Xia Civilization Academy.

In the morning.

Su Yu had just woken up and was startled by an extra silhouette by his bed the moment he opened his eyes.

“Awake?”

Liu Wenyan asked suddenly. After that, Su Yu suppressed his thoughts while being a little annoyed. This old man was scaring people early in the morning.

“Teacher, you’re awake too.”

“I’m old, I’ve been awake long ago.”

Liu Wenyan smiled. “Get up and eat something. When you’re done, go to the academy with me but don’t stay around me today…”

“Hm?” Su Yu’s gaze shifted slightly. “What teacher means is…”

“When do you think the All-Races Sect will choose to make their move if they have a plan? By tonight, the Great Xia Civilization Academy will be here. Hence, once it’s night, the All-Races Sect will lose their chance.”

Su Yu’s heart quaked. That was right. If he was someone from the All-Races Sect, he would either make his move today or wait until they left, then make their move when there were fewer city guards.

That meant it was possible for the people from the All-Races Sect to make an appearance today.

......

“It will be too dangerous to follow me!”

Liu Wenyan kept his usual smile. “Those fellows are worried about the manifestation of my will. If they make a move, they will surely target me first and kill me off in advance. This is to prevent me from achieving will manifestation, which will allow me to enter the Soaring Realm with a single step.

“So don’t stay with me or the other experts today. Just stay with the teachers at the Thousand Pound Realm. Someone will protect you all.”

“Teacher…” Su Yu climbed up from his bed in a hurry. “Will they truly dare to do something at Nanyuan Academy?”

“Of course, they will! For the people of the All-Races Sect, some are afraid of death, and others are greedy for life. Some are crazy and others are spellbound. But even those who are craven and cowardly will not hesitate to pull out their swords to achieve their objective!”

Liu Wenyan sighed softly. “These people are really weird! You said that they are afraid of death, yet sometimes, they are more fearless than us. If you place them in the Allskies Battlefield to face off against the gods and devils, they will piss in their pants in terror. Yet, if you ask them to dispose of their kind, they will be valiant and unafraid of death instead.

“Maybe they feel that we are all from the human race and there is nothing to be afraid of. They feel that the myriad races are the truly terrifying ones. They won’t feel an ounce of hesitation when they slaughter the human race.”

Su Yu frowned at what he had just heard. It was true. Those people from the All-Races Sect were strange in his eyes too.

These people could die from terror if you sent them to the Allskies Battlefield.

When it came to courage, they had next to none.

Yet, if you asked them to wreak havoc within the human race, they were even more courageous than the person before them, crazier than the next. Even if they were beheaded every day, it wouldn’t scare them off.

“Could this be regarded as being civil in public but a tyrant at home?”

Su Yu thought about it for a moment before speaking up with a term.

Liu Wenyan laughed. “No, it’s not. We don’t treat them as part of the human race, so we can’t regard them like that. But the meaning behind your words is true. They do have such a character. Meek on the outside but coldblooded on the inside. To be honest, there are many people like that. There have been innumerable incidents of such in history.

“And these people don’t only exist in the human race but are present in every race.

“When they betray their race, to prove that their choice is right, the ‘butcher knife’ in their hands will land on their former compatriots even faster and fiercer!”

Liu Wenyan wasn’t one to wonder at strange sights. “For the human race… In fact, there existed some groups like this in the myriad races!”

Liu Wenyan looked at Su Yu with a smile on his face. “The human race accepted such races too. When they lost faith in their races and had no more hope, they decided to rely on the human race. At that time, these races were also brutal when laying hands on their former compatriots.”

Su Yu couldn’t comprehend it, but he read a lot and knew that such people did exist.

After that, he didn’t ask anymore and got up from the bed to wash up.

At the dining table, Su Yu asked after eating for a while. “Teacher, then will they make their move today? Since there are so many students at the academy, why not declare it a holiday today?”

“We can’t do that. Having a vacation will inadvertently alert the enemy which might cause those fellows to not appear.”

“But…”

Su Yu was a little worried. In case they did come around for the kill, with that many students, wouldn’t they be implicated?

“We have already made preparations. There will be someone to protect you all.” Liu Wenyan sighed. “Don’t think of us as coldblooded because we are using you all as baits. Indecisiveness will only lead to disaster!

“Su Yu, remember this. If you are on the battlefield one day and become a commander, at that time… What you need to do is choose!

“On one end, it’s 1,000 soldiers, on another is 10,000 people. You can either choose to save the 10,000 people, or you can choose to sacrifice these 1,000 soldiers to exterminate a large race’s 10,000-men army. At the moment… How will you choose?”

“I…” Su Yu had some hesitations and answered only after a moment, “I… don’t know.”

“You do, actually, but you can’t bear to say it. You’re wise and should know how to choose. On the Allskies Battlefield, exterminating a 10,000-strong all-races army is very important and can even affect the local war situation.”

Liu Wenyan continued softly, “This is the choice. This is the choice that the human race’s experts and sages should make! Sacrifice 1000 people to exterminate 10,000 people so you can have fewer deaths in the future. This is because the enemy’s army may produce an even larger massacre.”

“Isn’t it very cruel?”

Su Yu nodded in silence. He had never thought of this question. When Liu Wenyan asked him earlier, he thought that it was too realistic, too cruel, and too ruthless.

“Su Yu, this is war!”
