Chapter 1126: Chapter 1126 Between Master and Disciple
"Kuronagi, have you figured out the origins of that person?"
Kuronagi scratched his head upon hearing this, "I haven’t looked into it in detail, but it should be about right. Someone who can bring out a whole bottle of Huawei Tear Beads, if not a person from the Hua family of Liuli Country?"
"That may not necessarily be the case; there has been some commotion in the Hua family recently, and no one can say for sure whether the Hua family now exists in name only." The middle-aged man spoke with a cold tone.
Kuronagi swallowed hard, already seeing that the lord before him didn’t plan to report this matter but also didn’t want to give up easily after being treated well by others. He pushed on stubbornly, "What does it matter, at most this guy has control over the Fish-tail Dragon Carp Clan, which isn’t a bad thing for us. Chang Ping, your realm doesn’t need Huawei Tear Beads, but doesn’t your lineage always struggle with cultivation?"
He Mao Chang Ping hesitated for a moment, pondered, and then said, "I’m not opposed to establishing a connection between the He Mao Family and the Fish-tail Dragon Carp Clan. It’s just this person’s identity..."
"Don’t worry, could there be a problem if I personally check it out? If you still don’t trust it, I can watch over him for another couple of days," Kuronagi knew it would be difficult to get this stubborn man to relent, so he took a step back himself.
He Mao Chang Ping nodded, "That would be best. Come find me again after you’ve confirmed everything."
"Alright."
Kuronagi said and left the place, not in any hurry since he had already told Su Chengyu that it would take a few days.
After Kuronagi left, He Mao Chang Ping did not leave his guest room but rather spoke a few words to his maid.
Once the maid left, very soon a stooped old man walked in from the outside.
"Lord Chang Ping, you’ve called me here; may I know what task you have for me?"
He Mao Chang Ping gestured for the old man to sit down before explaining the matter of Su Chengyu, asking whether the old man knew this person.
The old man nodded and said in a low voice, "I am aware. When Kuronagi and his people were surrounding that guy, my descendants were there too. My family also got a few Mermaid Tear Pearls, which I have confirmed to be genuine."
He Mao Chang Ping nodded, "The items may be real, but the person might not be."
The stooped old man thought for a while, then spoke up, "Isn’t Kuronagi already in contact with that person? It doesn’t seem appropriate for me to interfere."
He Mao Chang Ping scoffed, "That idiot Kuronagi must have accepted benefits from the other party. Even if I send him to investigate again, he surely won’t do it diligently. Plus, reaching an agreement with the Fish-tail Dragon Carp Clan is no small matter, so I must be absolutely sure of this person’s identity."
The stooped old man immediately nodded, "I understand. Lord Chang Ping, rest assured, I will send someone to test the depths of this guy."
"Send someone?"
To the old man’s answer, He Mao Chang Ping was evidently dissatisfied.
The old man, realizing his mistake, quickly added, "When necessary, I will also take action myself, to see what this young man is really about."
He Mao Chang Ping finally nodded in satisfaction and made a promise, saying,
"If this matter succeeds, Kuronagi gets the primary credit, you’ll get the secondary. And if the cooperation doesn’t happen, you’ll be the primary credit holder, while Kuronagi..."
His words trailed off as a hint of murderous intent flashed in He Mao Chang Ping’s eyes.
"I understand," said the old man, who now completely grasped the situation, in an indifferent tone and then left the place.
When Kuronagi left the He Mao Family, it was already getting dark.
He first went to the accommodation arranged for Su Chengyu, then knocked on the door but received no reply. Perplexed, he slowly pushed open the door to find the room empty.
"He’s gone?"
In the midst of confusion, the maid tasked with serving Su Chengyu was called over. She immediately said, "Mr. Yu just left not long ago, saying he wanted to go... to go seek out beauties, and he even asked me about several places."
"Hahaha! I knew it, this guy making himself look like that, how could he not like flirting with women."
The maid expressed her confusion, "Mr. Yu’s appearance is fake?"
"Nonsense, our Demon Clan can shape-shift, can’t humans change their faces too? I’ve always said this kid looks like a repressed flirt. You’re useless too. Had you shown some interest and cozied up to such an easy mark, wouldn’t you have risen high by now?"
The maid bowed her head, not daring to respond. After Kuronagi left while cursing and grumbling, the maid then closed the door to Su Chengyu’s room.
Only after the two had left did the figures of Su Chengyu and Yu Yanshu slowly emerge from the darkness.
Su Chengyu’s face showed a hint of confusion, "Do I really look like a repressed flirt?"
Yu Yanshu by his side couldn’t help but let out a knowing smile before speaking, "Not at all, Master is just very handsome, which easily breeds jealousy."
"Really?"
Yu Yanshu nodded like a pecking chicken.
The Heaven-Mending Stone inside his Divine Sense couldn’t help but retort, "The little girl is just humoring you, and you actually believe it."
Seeing that the Heaven-Mending Stone had finally absorbed the excess effects of the elixir, Su Chengyu asked, "Yan’er’s body is really all right now?"
The Heaven-Mending Stone rolled its eyes, "You’re now a Nascent Soul. You can open your Heavenly Eye and observe the God’s Soul for yourself, do you really need to ask me?"
Su Chengyu chuckled, "Isn’t this just in case?"
"Rest assured, she’s fine now, after all, it was a God-ranked Elixir. Using it on her was somewhat wasteful, but it’s a good thing I was here, as I got another good feed."
Su Chengyu smiled without a word, knowing that the Heaven-Mending Stone was willing to talk so much obviously because it had benefited considerably as well.
Yu Yanshu’s injuries were severe, indeed requiring a God-ranked Elixir for healing, but her God’s Soul was ultimately too weak.
The tremendous effects of the God-ranked Elixir were too vast for her never-before-trained God’s Soul.
As a result, most of the elixir’s potency was absorbed by others.
And among those who benefitted the most was not Su Chengyu, who had just entered such a phase and was perfectly suited for soul strengthening, but rather the Heaven-Mending Stone.
However, Su Chengyu didn’t mind. After all, they were all part of his household—whose absorption mattered?
The thing he felt most relieved about was that Yu Yanshu had truly awakened.
Looking at Yu Yanshu fully recovered, Su Chengyu let out a long sigh of relief, speaking softly, "Yan’er, I’m sorry."
Yu Yanshu was startled and immediately wanted to argue, but Su Chengyu stopped her, "I am your master. No matter the reason, since you are with me, anything that happens to you is definitely my problem. Do you understand?"
These words from Su Chengyu were not just an apology but more importantly, to dispel the guilt in Yu Yanshu’s heart.
Yu Yanshu never owed him anything; it was always him, as her master, who hadn’t done well enough.
And seeing Su Chengyu’s domineering attitude, Yu Yanshu pouted, "Master, isn’t that being unreasonable..."
Su Chengyu smiled with understanding, patting Yu Yanshu’s shoulder, "Yan’er, in dealings between people, often times it’s all about being unreasonable."
