Chapter 1032: Chapter 1032: The Frog in the Well

After flying directly to Jiangyang City with sword control, Su Chengyu did not head straight to the Dragon Soul Department like he did when returning to Lin Jiang, but instead went to where Gu Ying was located.

Firstly, to confirm their safety now, and secondly, he needed to confirm something.

Su Chengyu landed near the residential area, then walked towards it.

Just as he entered, he sensed several lines of sight converging on him.

Su Chengyu wasn’t surprised; on the contrary, if there hadn’t been such vigilant eyes, he would have been more worried.

And as Su Chengyu slowly approached Gu Ying’s location, those hidden figures had already begun to move.

In no time at all, they had completely surrounded Su Chengyu, and then people emerged from all directions to encircle him.

"Routine inquiry from the Dragon Soul Department, please show your ID card?"

Su Chengyu glanced at the person in charge, who he did not recognize, and spoke up, "Who is in charge of security here?"

The other party was momentarily stunned, but quickly became alert and entered a combat-ready state, "Who exactly are you and what are you here for?"

Seeing that words were of no help, Su Chengyu spread his Divine Sense into the vicinity, and quickly discovered a familiar figure not too far away; to his surprise, she had come in person.

"Mu Ge, long time no see."

Qin Muge, who had just rushed over, swiftly walked to the front of the crowd, but she did not see the face she knew well, and was taken aback.

"Who are you?"

Su Chengyu chuckled lightly, "Don’t you recognize me with a different appearance?"

Listening to this familiar voice, Qin Muge hesitated, "Are you Su Cheng?"

Su Chengyu nodded, glanced around, and Qin Muge immediately signaled for the others to leave first.

Although they were somewhat puzzled, they still followed Qin Muge’s orders.

By now, Qin Muge was not just the foremost expert of the younger generation in Jiangdong; she was now also occupying the powerful position of Grand Marshal of the Dragon Soul Department in Jiangyang City.

When the others had left, Su Chengyu continued as he walked, "Do I need to change my face to talk to you?"

Qin Muge shook her head, "No need, Su Cheng, Su Chengyu, it turns out they’re the same person. I should have realized it sooner."

Qin Muge had always harbored feelings for Su Chengyu, but Su Chengyu had also made his stance clear to her.

Since Su Cheng’s disappearance, Qin Muge had devoted herself to cultivation; now that she saw him again and knew that Su Chengyu and Su Cheng were the same person, many of her doubts were resolved.

Su Chengyu smiled noncommittally, "How come you came here in person?"

"Ever since my appointment, I have been secretly taking care of these two ladies."

Su Chengyu was somewhat surprised; he hadn’t expected that, in this respect, Qin Muge was much clearer-sighted than Stone Sword Edge. He checked Qin Muge’s abilities casually and then spoke.

"You’ve laid a solid foundation as a Great Grandmaster. Take this elixir; it should help you advance to the Martial Marquis Realm within half a month."

Qin Muge took the elixir that Su Chengyu tossed to her, shocked. She still found it hard to believe what he had just said.

According to her father, it would take nearly a year for her to advance to the Martial Marquis Realm, even at the fastest pace. But Su Chengyu said it would only take half a month—what kind of elixir had he given her?

And if she remembered correctly, six months ago this guy’s strength was only comparable to that of the Martial Marquis Realm. In just a mere half-year’s time, he could already let someone advance to the Martial Marquis Realm at will?

"Ci Ti Dan, the herbs used in its concoction are precious, and its effects are tailored only for martial artists. However, I happened to procure a batch of it recently. Don’t be polite; consider it my gratitude for you looking after them," he said casually.

Qin Muge was stunned before she remembered again that the man standing before her was a cultivator!

The progress of a cultivator could not be judged by ordinary standards.

"Thank you, Mr. Su!" Qin Muge promptly changed how she addressed Su Chengyu.

"No need for thanks. They will still need your extra care in the future."

While speaking, Su Chengyu had already arrived at Gu Ying’s door, and Qin Muge also took the hint and promptly took his leave.

It was then that Su Chengyu suddenly thought of something and spoke, "Right, could you contact your father for me? If it’s convenient for him, ask him to come over; if not, never mind."

Determined to completely eradicate the Black Dragon Commerce Association this time, Su Chengyu was resolute in his mission, and since the branch in Jiangdong had already been wiped out, Qin Siyuan wouldn’t be of much help anyway.

By informing him, Su Chengyu was merely giving him a heads up, preferably to prepare the entire Eastern Dragon Soul Department, to avoid excessive turmoil when the Black Dragon Commerce Association collapsed and potentially implicate the whole of the Longjiang Four Provinces.

If Qin Siyuan did not come, Su Chengyu didn’t really care either way. After all, when the time came, it would not be he who would be troubled, but those fellows in the Dragon Soul Department.

"Rest assured, Mr. Su, I will inform my father straight away."

Although Qin Muge didn’t know why, he readily agreed.

Ever since Su Chengyu appeared, despite him never revealing what he intended to do, the aura he now exuded was entirely different from before and that gave Qin Muge an intuition.

Jiangdong, no... the whole Longjiang Four Provinces, maybe even the entirety of the Eastern Six Provinces, were about to witness a change of the heavens.

Su Chengyu nodded, not saying much else, and turned to press the doorbell.

"Who is it?"

The cautious voice of Gu Ying came from inside, and although it carried strength, Su Chengyu could clearly detect a hint of fear in her words.

"It’s me, Su Chengyu."

The front door instantly opened, and Gu Ying leapt out, embracing Su Chengyu tightly.

"ChengYu, I’ve missed you so much."

Su Chengyu softly patted her back in comfort, saying, "I’ve come back, haven’t I?"

Gu Ying nodded, and her emotions quickly stabilized. Knowing that the entrance was not the place for conversation, she hurriedly ushered Su Chengyu into the house.

Upon entering, Gu Ying immediately asked, "ChengYu, what’s happened? People from the Jiangyang Dragon Soul Department came by just now, and they told me not to go out casually these next few days."

"Now that I’m here, there’s nothing to worry about."

Su Chengyu replied with a smile.

Despite none of her questions being answered, Gu Ying did not doubt Su Chengyu’s reassurance; her unease vanished completely upon hearing his words.

"How long are you staying this time?"

Su Chengyu blinked, "A day or two, perhaps. There’s still some unfinished business, and I was worried about you guys, so I made a detour here. Later, I should be able to come and stay with you for a few more days."

Gu Ying was taken aback and looked over at the side where Little Shuang lay, "Is someone targeting Little Shuang?"

After a moment’s thought, Su Chengyu eventually decided to tell Gu Ying everything.

After hearing the whole story from Su Chengyu, Gu Ying’s expression changed drastically, and she said agitatedly, "I absolutely never told anyone about you being Su Cheng!"

"I know, I’ve never doubted you. But knowing you wouldn’t tell anyone, that’s exactly why I had to come."

Gu Ying watched Su Chengyu, not understanding, while Su Chengyu had already started to examine her body.

Su Chengyu quickly discovered that indeed someone had used a Dao technique similar to the Soul Searching Method on Gu Ying, although the method employed was clearly inferior to the Soul Searching Method itself.

It wasn’t a direct extraction; someone had simply used a form of hypnosis to coax information about him from Gu Ying.

Nevertheless, this was enough for Su Chengyu to confirm that the current Black Dragon Commerce Association was not just aided by Martial Saint Xiang Yuesheng, but had Cultivators secretly assisting from the shadows.

In an instant, Su Chengyu destroyed the trace of mana left in Gu Ying’s body by the perpetrator and then turned his gaze toward Jiangnan.

Xiang Yuesheng, with the help of Cultivators, do you think you’re completely secure?

Years ago, he was like a frog in a well in front of Xiang Yuesheng.

Now, in the eyes of Su Chengyu, Xiang Yuesheng was merely a frog in a well trapped within the Longjiang Four Provinces!
