Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: Le Niushang

"I said I would come back, didn’t I?"

Upon hearing Su Chengyu’s words, Lin An suddenly frowned and then pushed him away, "Then couldn’t you have come later? You came exactly two months as you were told; couldn’t you wait for the Earth Immortal to come again? Do you know how much effort I made to ensure that nothing here hindered your departure to another country?"

Su Chengyu blinked at this, and he wondered why his departure had gone so smoothly.

If the Long family could detect his departure, others should have been aware as well, yet it seemed that no one from Xia Country had tried to stop him – so it turned out that Lin An and the others had put in their efforts behind the scenes.

"Thank you, but I still want to fully resolve this matter, and also..."

"You’re still thinking about your grandfather..."

Halfway through her sentence, Su Chengyu suddenly shook his head, and Lin An immediately understood his intention and refrained from speaking outright about it.

Although Lin An had sneaked in here, the place was after all not entirely safe. Considering she had managed to enter undetected, it was hard not to worry about eavesdroppers, so she chose not to continue.

"I’ve also investigated some things these past few days, but haven’t found any useful information."

"Mhm."

Su Chengyu was not surprised. Although Lin An had a special identity, the matter had evaded Ye Qingci’s investigation for so long, so it would be odd if Lin An could find clues so easily.

"This matter can’t be rushed. If it truly is the worst case scenario, even if I knew everything, I wouldn’t be able to handle it now."

Lin An nodded without speaking, her mood visibly complex.

She naturally understood the worst case scenario Su Chengyu was referring to; it involved her own father, who was now the Heavenly Son of Xia Country, and who was not just aware of the entire situation but potentially an active participant or even the planner.

And if that were true, how should she, Lin An, cope?

In her heart, Lin An naturally did not believe that her father was capable of such treachery against the loyal and good. But what if?

Regarding this matter, there was always a thorn in Lin An’s heart.

Seeing the inner struggle within Lin An, Su Chengyu voluntarily changed the subject, and looking towards the door, he spoke softly, "Is that Zhuang Yihan your cousin?"

Lin An was slightly startled, then nodded, "Yes, his mother is my aunt. But that guy isn’t quite right in the head; I don’t really like him."

Su Chengyu smiled, immediately understanding what Lin An meant by ’not quite right in the head’, and whispered.

"What is this thing called love that makes one willing to live and die for another?"

Lin An gave a sidelong glance and whispered, "With how he is, he wants Ye Qingci to fancy him? Let alone talent and strength, even if he really was an Earth Immortal, I doubt Ye Qingci would give him a second look, right?"

Su Chengyu was somewhat surprised by Lin An’s high regard for Ye Qingci, and sensing his gaze, Lin An glanced at him and explained, "After all, she is the first Land Immortal of the younger generation. Honestly, I too didn’t expect her to become a Land Immortal before Long Xuan. Such a pity."

Su Chengyu smiled, naturally understanding what Lin An found regrettable.

Lin An’s strength was at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm, which could be described as the Late Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, showing phenomenal progress.

But that was normal; with Lin An’s exceptional talents, along with the resources of the Royal Family, her cultivation speed was bound to be extremely fast!

Back in the Kunwu Realm, she hadn’t even considered Long Xuan’s talent worthy of note, and, of course, harbored thoughts of being the foremost amongst the youth. It was just unfortunate that Lin An was born later and ascended the Dao later, enabling others to gain a head start.

If Lin An, Ye Qingci, and Long Xuan had started at the same point in time, who would have ascended first would still be up for debate.

"It seems that Long Xuan is also about to become an Earth Immortal."

Recalling what Ye Qingci had said to him before she left, Su Chengyu reminded Lin An.

Upon hearing these words, Lin An frowned, but what concerned him wasn’t the fact that Long Xuan was about to ascend to immortality, rather he subconsciously blurted out, "Then why have you come to the Capital City at this time!"

Su Chengyu replied with a faint smile, "He probably won’t directly make a move against me."

Lin An was momentarily stunned upon hearing this and quickly realized that this must have been something Ye Qingci negotiated for Su Chengyu. He didn’t ask any further and just nodded his head.

"That’s good. If Long Xuan made a move, you certainly wouldn’t be able to handle it, and the Long Family doesn’t have any other members that need much attention."

The most outstanding member of the Long Family below Long Xuan was Long Li, and he was also the root of the conflict between Su Chengyu and the Long Family, but he had long been killed by Su Chengyu, with no chance to cause trouble again.

Not to mention, even if Long Li were still alive today, he would definitely not be a match for the current Su Chengyu.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be careful," he said.

Su Chengyu looked at Lin An, whose face was full of concern for him, and said with a smile.

Lin An looked at Su Chengyu with irritation, "Smile, you still have the mood to smile, do you know..."

"I know, your mother seems to not like me very much."

Lin An was taken aback for a moment as he looked at Su Chengyu, who had a smile on his face, and his own face unexpectedly turned red, then he said, "Zhuang Yihan, that big mouth, isn’t usually so gossipy."

Su Chengyu continued to smile and said, "He didn’t exactly volunteer the information, it was mostly deduced by me piecing together the little clues."

Zhuang Yihan had previously mentioned Lin An’s mother, but the conversation was abruptly cut short due to the attack. However, afterward, Su Chengyu’s simple probing allowed him to guess her attitude.

In essence, Su Chengyu, this person who had suddenly appeared, was not accepted by the Zhao Family.

Su Chengyu had actually been mentally prepared for this, just not expecting the direct attitude to come not from the Royal Family, but from Lin An’s mother.

Upon hearing this, Lin An glanced at Su Chengyu and said quietly, "You don’t find it troublesome, do you?"

"Troublesome?"

Su Chengyu looked puzzled and said, "What trouble do I have? I’m only worried it might trouble you."

"Hm?"

Lin An was somewhat puzzled by Su Chengyu’s meaning.

"What I like is you, not your mother. If we can make both sides happy, that’s naturally the best outcome, but if they don’t like me... then I’ll just take you away to roam the world far and high, far from the reach of the Emperor."

"I may not be up to fleeing overseas alone, but even if Xia Country has no place for me, at the very least, I have to take you with me when I leave."

Lin An’s face turned red with a coy shyness that he could not completely conceal upon hearing Su Chengyu’s words. However, he quickly regained his composure and glared at Su Chengyu.

"Put away those little schemes of yours! Do you have any idea how much effort I expended just to sneak out and see you today? And you still think of taking me away from the Capital City, do you think you can do that?"

"Whether or not it can be done is one thing, but whether or not to do it is another matter entirely," Su Chengyu replied without hesitation.

His unabashed words warmed Lin An’s heart, and he nodded, "Don’t worry, although my mother doesn’t like you very much, she respects my choice very much. She also promised me that she wouldn’t cause you trouble."

Su Chengyu nodded and didn’t say much more; naturally, he believed Lin An’s words, but Su Chengyu also understood – even if Lin An’s mother promised not to target him, would she really refrain from moving against him behind the scenes?

Although some time had passed, he still remembered the last piece of advice Feng Jie Yu gave him before he left to wait for the wind.

"Be careful around Le Niushang."

In the past decade, the Nine Heavens Beauties List had undergone several iterations, but Le Niushang had consistently remained at the top, never changing.
