Chapter 1230: Chapter 1230: Difficult Barrier of Love

"Of course I care, he’s my brother, after all. I owe my life to Kunwu Realm, and if it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t have been able to learn the True Dragon Technique."

Yang Junmo patted his chest and answered with utter straightforwardness.

As for his relationship with Su Chengyu, Yang Junmo never shied away from discussing it.

The matter of him secretly supporting Su Chengyu had long been an open secret within the Capital City, and any attempt to conceal it would be pointless.

Moreover, Yang Junmo was no fool; he understood that in a place like the Capital City, the more one tries to cover up, the more others become suspicious. It’s better to be forthright than to be the subject of constant suspicion.

Yang Qianyan nodded upon hearing this. Although Yang Junmo had never mentioned this to him, he had been well aware of it already.

Yang Qianyan didn’t know exactly what had transpired with Yang Junmo in Kunwu Realm, but he had some idea about the people he might have met and the trials he underwent, as such matters were hardly a secret within the Demon Slayer Department.

"Brother, can you share a bit, then? After all, he has helped your younger brother quite a bit."

"It involves classified information, I cannot disclose anything. Also, I advise you to stop prying any further; getting too involved will only bring you trouble."

Yang Qianyan hesitated for a moment but then decided to speak his mind, "You are too weak."

"Hey! Brother, don’t be so harsh! I’m about to break into the Nascent Soul Realm, that’s not too bad among the young people, right?!"

After coming out of the Kunwu Realm, Yang Junmo indeed intensified his cultivation for a while, and now he was at the threshold leading into the Nascent Soul Realm.

If it wasn’t for his assistance with Su Chengyu’s matters concerning the Long family over the past two months, it was not impossible for him to have already entered the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, Yang Qianyan remained unmoved by his words and responded coldly, "I’m at the Hollow Vacuum, Xu Zijing is at the Hollow Vacuum, Long Xuan is at the Hollow Vacuum..."

"Stop, stop, stop, give me someone closer to my age."

Although all considered the younger generation, those mentioned by Yang Qianyan had started their cultivation several years before Yang Junmo.

"Princess Lin An is in the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, and that Su Chengyu has also reached the Nascent Soul, also..."

Yang Qianyan’s speech suddenly halted, and Yang Junmo’s eyes quickly darted as he guessed what his elder brother was thinking and spoke up, "Ye Qingci has become a Land Immortal."

Yang Qianyan turned with a confused look, not quite understanding how Yang Junmo knew, "How do you know?"

"What hasn’t been spread around outside, what’s strange about me knowing?"

Since the incident, Yang Qianyan chose not to mention it. Ye Qingci’s battle in Dongying caused a huge stir; inevitably, word of it spread among the populace.

Although the Demon Slayer Department had yet to officially acknowledge it, the wider world had essentially accepted it as fact, with only many within the Capital City remaining skeptical.

Especially those aware of Ye Qingci’s previous realm.

Advancing from the pinnacle of the Nascent Soul Realm to Earth Immortal in just two months seemed too fantastical by any measure.

Such a feat, being described as unprecedented, was no exaggeration.

"The Ye Family’s cultivation technique is indeed a bit special. I used to think it was just a result of accumulating a lot before making a breakthrough, but now I see it’s more than that."

Since Yang Junmo was already aware, there was no need for Yang Qianyan to avoid the topic and he spoke openly.

"How come this small place like the Capital City keeps producing such freaks of nature? Now there’s also Su Chengyu, life is really not easy."

Upon hearing this, Yang Qianyan glared at Yang Junmo, "Get your head in the game. If you don’t want to join the Demon Slayer Department, it’s your decision, but your cultivation is your own. Think about it, if you were at the Hollow Vacuum now, wouldn’t you be able to help Su Chengyu even more?"

"That’s not necessarily true."

Without saying another word, Yang Junmo only rolled his eyes. If he truly was at the Hollow Vacuum, the Xia Country would monitor him even more strictly, making some matters even harder to handle.

Yang Qianyan shook his head after hearing the words, feeling a sense of frustration akin to hating iron for not becoming steel. He couldn’t understand why his brother, whose talent wasn’t much lower than his own, was so indifferent to cultivation.

He had intended to use this opportunity to lecture a bit more, but sensing that the situation was unfavorable, Yang Junmo was already planning to leave the study.

Yang Qianyan furrowed his brows and immediately looked at Yang Junmo’s retreating figure, asking, "Where are you going?"

"Why should I stay here if you’re unwilling to say anything? I’m off to see my brother."

Yang Qianyan’s frown deepened as he said at once, "Haven’t I told you to stay away from him?"

Yang Junmo rolled his eyes and retorted, "Father also told you to stop provoking Ye Qingci, but that hasn’t stopped you, has it?"

"You..."

"With that kind of concern, you might as well focus more on Ye Qingci. After all, she’s now an Earth Immortal."

That single sentence completely stifled Yang Qianyan’s response, and he clenched his fists tightly, taking a deep breath to calm himself.

Long Xuan was the inner demon of many geniuses, permanently perched atop the pinnacle, shattering the dreams of so-called talents.

But not for Yang Qianyan. From the beginning of his cultivation, Yang Qianyan had only one inner demon.

Ye Qingci.

The barrier of love is hard to break, even harder to cross.

The moment Ye Qingci became an Earth Immortal was the moment Yang Qianyan realized that the threshold he needed to cross to ascend to immortality had become a thousand zhang taller.

Taking another deep breath, Yang Qianyan stilled his agitated spirit and, in the end, did not continue to stop Yang Junmo.

He understood Yang Junmo’s character—for now, even if he forcefully kept him here, he would only continue to irritate himself.

Besides, he had more important matters to attend to during this trip home.

Yang Qianyan frowned as he searched the study for a long time without finding the materials he wanted to consult, and he couldn’t help but wonder, "Could it be that I’m overthinking this?"

Looking down at the book in his hands and the name on it that had completely vanished without a trace in Xia Country, Yang Qianyan’s expression was very complex.

Su Linyuan, the figure who had once been a founding minister of Xia Country.

Yang Qianyan harbored his own suspicions about the disappearance of Su Linyuan and the erasure of his traces, but he was just as ignorant about what actually happened back then.

Yet, by deducing from the outcome, Yang Qianyan had a rough idea of what must have occurred.

The appearance of Su Chengyu made Yang Qianyan remember this legendary figure once illustrious throughout the world. But after searching through all the clues in the Demon Slayer Department, and even looking through his family’s private collection, Yang Qianyan found nothing amiss.

If information about Su Linyuan’s fate had been erased by the Xia Nation Official like it had never existed, then Su Zhedian, who suddenly disappeared from this world, was even more of an enigma.

Su Linyuan was dead, Su Zhedian was missing, and it was uncertain whether there were any surviving descendants of the Su family lineage.

It seemed there was truly no channel left in this world for verification.

No, there might still be one.

Suddenly recalling something, Yang Qianyan swiftly left the study.

If there was one person in this world who knew whether the Su family had surviving descendants, it would undoubtedly be her.

The Yu Clan, Yun Qingluo.
