Imperial Treasure

Chapter 1574 - 918: Empire Era

Natasha said, "Three have just died, and here come two more, quite exhausting."

Byzantine: "You don’t need to be so wary, I came today just to take a look."

Natasha: "Another day perhaps, today this place is all mine."

Byzantine: "...."

It’s not the first time I’ve heard that Princess Natasha of the United Kingdom is as fierce as a tiger, but it’s the first time witnessing it.

"Are you afraid of something?"

Byzantine’s gaze passed over the two, falling down onto Yellow Springs Avenue.

"One less person, off on another time travel adventure?"

Upon saying this, Natasha felt a jolt of unease,

How does this person know so much about this, there must be some trickery.

These people came prepared, they’re definitely planning to take action.

Or they want to procure something.

Delay? Or just fight?

Natasha flipped her hand, magma roiling,

"Fight, or go in for a drink and chat?"

Natasha got straight to the point, but one person behind Byzantine laughed.

"Drinking wouldn’t be impossible, but since it’s our first visit to Yellow Springs Avenue, aren’t we allowed to take a look?"

Well, isn’t that the ultimate refusal?

Natasha coldly laughed, flicking her palm to send the magma roaring forth, so let’s fight!

But just at this moment.

Byzantine and Li Luo simultaneously looked toward one place, and their expressions changed.

Someone had already appeared on Yellow Springs Avenue.

What shocked them was that Yellow Springs Avenue posed significant damage to martial artists, yet this person could tread on the floor unharmed, though his energy was constantly depleting...

——How strong must this person be?

Byzantine recognized this person.

"Yao"

How could the City Lord of the Underground City also be here? If that’s the case, this situation was no longer under their control, and it was impossible to steal the secrets of time travel.

All five remained silent, rapidly descending to appear on both sides of Golden Road.

Natasha and Li Luo exchanged glances — the two of them combined weren’t a match for this person. If he truly decided to ruin Yellow Springs Avenue, then surely...

As the atmosphere chilled.

Yao suddenly looked in a direction.

Natasha and Li Luo were startled, this was approximately where Sui Yi had entered the tunnel earlier.

Did this person detect it?

As Yao pondered.

Buzz!

Light expanded outward.

A tunnel space suddenly appeared.

Then...

Crash,

Sui Yi and Yi emerged from the tunnel, which quickly returned to normal, gone in a blink.

Witnessing the scene of time travel firsthand, Byzantine and the other two’s eyes brightened. To them, this Earth held little challenge, while other worlds were like sparkling gems, representing supreme opportunities...

Sui Yi was not concerned with Byzantine’s trio but was surprised by Yao’s presence.

She looked at Yao, and Yao looked right back.

Though they had returned, Natasha estimated Yao was neutral rather than clearly good or evil, fighting him would be tough, and who knew if Sui Yi could hold her ground...

"Can we talk?" Yao showed no hostility and seemed to have come specifically for Sui Yi.

Sui Yi agreed.

Soon, the two appeared on a platform at the rest lodge.

They could see Byzantine’s trio still investigating something on Yellow Springs Avenue, probably experimenting on how to correctly traverse time...

Yao poured Sui Yi a cup of water.

After placing the kettle down, he looked at Sui Yi, "Next, I’d like to ask you some questions. If it’s inconvenient, you can opt not to answer. Of course, I can exchange information with you—if there’s anything you wish to know."

Sui Yi had previously caught a glimpse of him, remembering him as someone who seemed very young and composed, but upon closer inspection, discovered he had a firm appearance and robust charisma, yet very calm eyes.

"Yellow Springs Avenue is connected to another hunting space, an auxiliary space of another high-tier world, akin to their backyard, and that world is named Dragon Ape World.... Many powerhouses live there, Void-breakers aren’t considered top-tier figures... caution is needed when entering."

After a brief pause, Sui Yi asked, "Where has Skeleton Society hidden the Jade Bi they obtained from the domestic territory?"

That issue indeed was... a high-level secret,

However, Yao was surprised when Sui Yi revealed secrets about time travel directly to him, as such secrets pertained to breaking through martial arts boundaries, the dream of every Void-breaker, yet she seemingly didn’t care...

She wasn’t afraid of others becoming stronger.

However, she evidently valued that piece of Jade Bi’s location more.

Still, asking him, the City Lord, about Skeleton Society’s secrets...

"Manhattan World Trade Center, that’s where their headquarters is located."

Huh? The World Trade Center is Skeleton Society’s headquarters?

Sui Yi was surprised, then couldn’t help but smile; this was the biggest difference between the forces of Country M and the domestic forces.

One emphasized showing off, the other hiding.

But after getting the information he wanted, Sui Yi drank some water, "Are you going in now?"

"No, now is not suitable... You know... The Skeleton Society, the Vatican, and the Ghost Party have all acquired a considerable part of the Spirit Coffin, and thanks to the Peach Blossom Source incident... they’ve mastered the way to open the Spirit Coffin. Now their strength has greatly increased, and the current situation of our Earth is equivalent to chaos. With their ambition, it won’t be long before they launch a martial arts annexation campaign between various forces, between countries..."

Yao said lightly, while looking at Sui Yi: "I want to form an alliance with you."

"Alliance? Underground City?"

"The Underground City is a loose cultivator’s force, with people from various countries and races, not suitable for this kind of war..."

"This kind of war, do you think this will be a war between races?"

"Yes, the Caucasian, the Black, and the Yellow race war; this is the most fundamental point of contention in the Martial Arts Circle. You know, once at SSS level and above, the concept of a nation becomes light, but the race struggle is the ultimate reason, regardless of time and place."

Sui Yi nodded, she concurred with this point, just like the slaughter between the Divine Race, the Wizard Tribe, and the Human Race; the root cause is a racial issue.

She looked at Yao again.

This person was undoubtedly a typical Yellow race, and from his name, it was certain he was from the Central Plains.

——Yao.

"Apart from myself, there will also be an attitude from The Gate side; the situation creates all of this, and the Yellow race must stand together, while on the Caucasian side, the Vatican and the Skeleton Society will, instead, unite their front line; in a sense, their force is the most massive, enough to crush all other race forces... It won’t take long before they kick off and clarify everything, realizing the era of Caucasian empire rule, and this time won’t be long."

As soon as Yao finished speaking, Sui Yi’s phone rang.

It was Yhan Qingwu.

Sui Yi listened to the voice from the other side. After a while, she put down the phone.

"Indeed, it won’t be long... In three days, there will be a themed exhibition at the top of the World Trade Center, named the Empire Era."

Yao frowned, "Faster than I thought..."

He stood up, looking at Sui Yi, his eyes deep but very serious: "Maybe a bit untimely, but I hope when you get back, you can spare some time for our three-party meeting."

Three parties?

"Okay."

Yao flew up, not looking at the Byzantine side.

Sui Yi understood his thought—Is the interdimensional space so easy to go? No matter how many Byzantines go, they can’t change the overall situation; the Dragon Ape will still be the Dragon Apes’ Dragon Ape; they can only be passersby, so sooner or later it won’t matter.

It is still most important to stabilize one’s own territory.

Sui Yi had the same idea, so there was a tacit understanding.

Yao left, and Natasha and the other three walked in.

"Is this the Overlord Yao of the Underground City? He seems like a good talker," Natasha said while Leon twitched his cheek, lightly snorting: "When they reach this level of skill, not wanting to talk nicely basically means taking action."

Ah, this comment is quite insightful.

Natasha chuckled lightly, looking at Yi, "Haven’t seen you for many years, you’ve become more beautiful."

Natasha’s appearance hadn’t changed much, still as glamorous as ever, only because her strength increased, coupled with spending time with people like Sui Yi for a long time, she developed a bit of Chinese elegance, so her temperament changed significantly.

However, Yi was more thorough, with an appearance more mature and cold, temperament increasingly sharp and gloomy, and a westernized coldness, different from Li Luo’s coldness.

Of course, Natasha’s words were also a compliment.

Yi responded indifferently: "Hmm."

Hmm?

Just a hmm!

Annoying like Wan Ge.

Natasha scoffed, sat across from Sui Yi, and watched the testing of the three people from Byzantine below...

"The scope is getting smaller, and they can find the entrance soon... shouldn’t we get rid of them? But they seem sure we won’t strike at them... any reason?"

Natasha asked, the other few also looked.

Sui Yi smiled faintly: "Great wars are ahead, no need to stir hostility."

Ah... talk like a human.

Natasha pulled her lips, "So, when can we act?"

"In three days, let’s return to Country M... wait for the invitation."

Paused for a moment, Sui Yi looked at Leon.

"Are you waiting for the people from Section 51 here, or coming with us?"

This question made Natasha squint, her gaze sharp as she looked at Leon.

Yet Yi and Li Luo acted as if they already knew.

Sweat beaded on Leon’s forehead, wiping it with a tissue, he laughed dryly: "Well, I knew I couldn’t hide it from you guys... I am indeed employed by Section 51, but I was coerced, it was because that time the Skeleton Society was pressuring me so tight, and Section 51 came knocking, asking for my cooperation... I had no choice."

So you have been a traitor all the way? Natasha scoffed, molten magma danced in her palm.

"I knew you were from Section 51, in the hotel, I left Sui Yi information."

Yi’s words froze Leon’s crying face.

What?

So my antics were all under the eyes of two great figures on the way?

Leon, his face originally thick-skinned, now also blushed.

"Yi, Yi, you know, even though I was employed by 51, I didn’t expose too much about you, otherwise Section 51 would have ambushed you halfway, right."

Leon acted pitiably begging for mercy...

Yi glanced at him, "I know, that’s why you’re still alive."

On the small slate, she had already discussed with Sui Yi, otherwise, why would Sui Yi allow this person to follow.
