Shut Outside the Gate, Fingersnap Divine Skill

Su Yu’s expression darkened. He immediately went over to the celestial soldiers. Every one of them had suffered injuries to varying degrees; those closest to the blast had been killed outright, and some had even been blown to pieces, their bodies gone.

One of Cang Nan’s hands had been blown off. The entire battlefield was covered in mangled, bloody corpses. Clutching his arm, Cang Nan hurried over to Su Yu and said, "General, the Demon Clan may send reinforcements at any moment. We should retreat first."

So many people had been injured; not retreating was impossible. Su Yu nodded. "Mm. Help each other back to the border city. Once we’re back, I’ll treat your injuries. Even if you’re dead, I can bring you back!"

Someone immediately shouted, "General, then let’s bring our brothers’ bodies with us!"

Su Yu was about to agree when he suddenly sensed the Demon Clan closing in from behind. He immediately said, "Quick! There’s no time to take our brothers’ bodies. Let’s head back first. Once your injuries heal in a few days, we’ll come back and retrieve them!"

After that battle, Su Yu had already come to regard them as his own brothers. He would definitely find a way to save them.

Hearing Su Yu’s words, everyone immediately supported one another and ran toward the border city. Su Yu did not remain idle either. He immediately used a clone from the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations to carry several corpses. However, some corpses had been blasted so badly that even their clothes were gone. Su Yu could not quickly determine whether they were his brothers, so in the end, he only took away a few hundred bodies.

On the wall above the border city gate, Wang Qiang and the others had turned pale. They had just witnessed Su Yu’s strength. Someone looked at Wang Qiang and asked, "Brother Wang, should we open the City Gate later?"

Wang Qiang shouted excitedly, "Absolutely not! You all saw Su Yu’s strength just now, right? We deserted. If we let him in, he’ll definitely kill us!"

"Right, right, right." Some of the more timid people immediately echoed him.

"Fine, then." All ninety-nine of them agreed with Wang Qiang. They had intended to harm Su Yu from the start; they had merely been frightened out of their wits by Su Yu’s strength.

Su Yu and the others soon returned beneath the border city. Cang Nan shouted, "Wang Qiang, open the gate!"

Wang Qiang and the others had long since hidden away. They had already made up their minds: no matter how those below shouted, they would not make a sound. Then they would report to the Heavenly Court that Su Yu, Cang Nan, and the others had died on the battlefield while fighting the Demon Clan.

The other celestial soldiers had heard Cang Nan’s voice as well. However, Wang Qiang and the others had ordered that the gate was not to be opened. They did not dare disobey, so they all pretended not to hear him.

Seeing that no one responded, Cang Nan’s face turned unusually grim. The others clenched their fists as well. One man began to cry and shout, "Wang Qiang! Fuck your ancestors! We fought with our lives on the line, and you fucking want us dead!"

"Haha, is this the Immortal Realm we’re supposed to protect…? We’re such fucking idiots!"

Everyone began laughing madly. When their hands and legs had been severed, when they had bled and sweated, none of them had cried or uttered a single complaint. But now, with the Immortal Realm shutting them outside its gates, they were truly heartbroken.

These people had joined full of passion, wanting to defend the Immortal Realm. But now, they were utterly disappointed in it…

Su Yu approached beneath the City Gate with a dark expression. He had already figured out what was happening. He sneered. "You all want me dead, don’t you? Huanglong Zhenren… just wait. If I don’t kill you, I, Su Yu, will take my own life!"

The Infinity Gauntlet appeared on Su Yu’s hand. He did not intend to lift the seal on his cultivation, because he still had a way to break open the barrier. Su Yu activated the Power Stone in the gauntlet, raised his fist, and smashed it into the City Gate.

Boom!

An explosion rang out, followed by a cracking sound. The City Gate had actually opened a little. As long as it opened even the slightest amount, the barrier would be broken. Su Yu pushed one side of the gate open with one hand and said coldly, "Enter the city!"

Su Yu had previously sensed the power within the Infinity Gauntlet and discovered four different kinds of Dominion Power. One of them was the Myriad Realms Dominator’s power, which he knew well. Therefore, using the Infinity Gauntlet to break an Immortal Realm barrier was nothing at all.

Cang Nan and the others immediately ran into the city. Wang Qiang and the others were so frightened that their legs trembled. Wang Qiang’s face went pale. "It’s over, it’s over. No, I can’t die."

With that, Wang Qiang immediately turned and ran. He knew he could not escape, because he could not leave without a military token. Yet he still instinctively tried to flee. After all, he had witnessed Su Yu’s terrifying power.

When the others saw Wang Qiang run, they foolishly followed him. Watching the more than ninety thousand people fleeing, Su Yu gave them a cold glance and said icily, "Run? Where can you run to?"

After Cang Nan and the others shut the City Gate, they all came to Su Yu’s side. Seeing the fleeing crowd, their gazes were ice-cold. Cang Nan said in a deep voice, "General, please allow me to bring them back!"

Su Yu sneered. "No need."

As he spoke, Su Yu raised his hand. Then a snap rang out, and Cang Nan and the others watched with their own eyes as the people running ahead began turning into windblown sand, one after another.

The power unleashed by the six Infinity Stones just now had made half the life in the universe disappear when Thanos used it. But Su Yu had absolute control over the Infinity Gauntlet, so he had merely made them vanish.

Cang Nan’s mouth fell open. He could hardly believe what he had just witnessed. His voice trembled slightly. "General, you killed them all?"

Su Yu nodded slightly. "Fleeing alone on the battlefield without obeying the general’s orders is the first crime! Cutting off their comrades’ path to survival is the second crime! Each offense deserves death!"

Cang Nan gave a bitter smile. "General, you have already killed around a hundred thousand Celestial Officials without the Heavenly Court’s permission, and you also released everyone in the border city. When you return to the Heavenly Court, the Jade Emperor will definitely have you executed."

"If the Jade Emperor cannot distinguish right from wrong, then what if I overthrow this Heavenly Court?" Su Yu said calmly.

Cang Nan fell silent for a moment, then dropped to one knee. "I, Cang Nan, am willing to follow the general for all eternity. From this day onward, I belong to the general, not the Heavenly Court!"

The rest dropped to one knee as well and shouted, "From this day onward, we belong to the general, no longer to the Heavenly Court! We are willing to brave fire and water for the general for all eternity!"

Su Yu looked at the people kneeling before him. Every one of their white suits of armor had been dyed blood-red, and some of them were even missing parts of their bodies. Su Yu smiled. "Since you treat me this way, I will never let you down!"

As he spoke, Su Yu used the Time Stone’s power to envelop everyone, reversing the state of their bodies by one hour.
