Chapter 1240: Chapter 1240: Mutation

Having learned of the Beitang Family’s intentions, Su Chengyu’s heart remained utterly undisturbed.

Whether Bei Tang Qi Meng lived or died, he had long since ceased to care.

This person, whose strength and status could no longer threaten him, presenting no qualms for Su Chengyu to save face for the Beitang Family by letting her go.

Now that the Beitang Family planned to hand her over as a sacrificial pawn for the demonic extermination conference, Su Chengyu was even more indifferent.

If she died, all the better, sparing him any future troubles she may cause.

"Su Chengyu, you couldn’t possibly have calculated all of this, could you?"

Yang Junmo, having learned of the Beitang Family’s stance, looked at Su Chengyu with some horror.

He wasn’t afraid of Su Chengyu’s high talent or strong cultivation, but if Su Chengyu’s scheming reached such depths, even as a friend, he couldn’t help feeling a bit frightened.

Su Chengyu glanced at him and said lightly, "Could I possibly hold her down by her head and engage in dual cultivation with someone of the Demonic Path?"

Yang Junmo paused, feeling there was some rationale to what Su Chengyu said, then nodded, "If you really wanted to do that, why not just with me instead?"

Su Chengyu was both annoyed and amused as he retorted, "Get lost."

Bei Tang Qian Xiao, standing aside and overhearing their unrestrained conversation, turned a deaf ear; she had already noticed Su Chengyu’s mention of his extensive knowledge on dual cultivation.

Initially surprised, she quickly thought of the ladies around Su Chengyu and then she understood.

How could such a man be lacking women?

"Gentlemen, this is the location arranged for the Beitang Family; I apologize that due to the overwhelming number of attendees, there are only two seats available."

"It’s fine."

Bei Tang Qianxiao spoke up; although the strongest in the Beitang Family was Bei Tang Ru Meng, this time the representative was still her, born of the direct line.

She looked at Bei Tang Ru Meng and said, "Dream Entering Elder, please take a seat first."

Bei Tang Ru Meng nodded; although her blood relation to Bei Tang Qianxiao had been severed for over three generations, she was very satisfied with this shining future of the Beitang Family.

"Let’s sit together."

Bei Tang Qianxiao nodded, and she took her seat together with Bei Tang Ru Meng, the other members of the Beitang Family standing behind them.

Su Chengyu gave Yang Junmo a look, and just as Yang Junmo was about to speak, the steward who had led them there said, "Young Master Yang, I have already informed the second young master, but he is quite busy today, so it might take a while before he can join you."

Yang Junmo felt relieved upon hearing this, his previous urge to beat up Lin Ran upon seeing him now dismissed, he waved his hand, "It’s fine, he’s in the back courtyard, right? I’ll just go look for him. Oh, and do say hello to Uncle Lin for me."

After dropping these words, Yang Junmo turned and walked towards the back of the conference hall as if he was in his own home. The steward frowned, about to stop him, when a voice sounded in his ear, prompting him to refrain.

Su Chengyu noticed this detail but said nothing, nodding slightly to the steward and then following Yang Junmo.

Their prominent stride towards the back of the hall did not go unnoticed, attracting many gazes.

Su Pingping, who had arrived early, noticed their entrance to the demonic extermination conference and immediately frowned.

A Nascent Soul cultivator beside Su Pingping spoke up, "That Su Chengyu doesn’t have any connection with the Lin Family, does he?"

Su Pingping replied coldly, "What connection could there be? He’s merely boasting behind Yang Junmo. No threat at all."

"Pingping, the clan has not commanded us to be enemies with Su Chengyu."

"But they didn’t say we can’t kill him, did they?!" Su Pingping said agitatedly, "You should know, brother Feng might have died at his hands!"

The man fell silent, knowing full well the affection Su Pingping bore for Su Chengfeng, and how now, this unrequited love had turned into hatred for Su Chengyu.

On the other side, the Yu Clan noticed the Su Clan’s movements. A refined young man spoke to his female secretary, "Is that person Su Chengyu?"

"Yes, I’ve asked people from the Su Clan, it’s no doubt Su Chengyu."

The man’s lips curled slightly, "Interesting. To make Yu Feng go mad, I really want to see what abilities you possess."

"Young Master, the clan has instructed that we avoid contact with this person during our time in the Capital City."

"I am well aware of what I am doing."

The young man spoke calmly, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

Beyond these two from the Ancient Clans, many others had also noticed Su Chengyu’s unexpected visit to the Demon Slaying Conference.

Each bore a different expression, seemingly harboring their own thoughts.

"Qianxiao, concern leads to chaos. This kid is much more cautious than you think. Since he’s come, he must be prepared to face these people."

Bei Tang Ru Meng noticed the anxious emotions in the person beside him and spoke outright to remind them.

Still, Bei Tang Qian Xiao felt uneasy watching Su Chengyu disappear into the hall.

For some reason, ever since Su Chengyu appeared, she had a premonition that something unexpected would happen at what should have been an uneventful Demon Slaying Conference.

However, even as her gaze darted alertly among all the individuals from the Ancient Clans and nobility in the great hall, she detected no unusual movement.

The next second, however, a massive gust of wind came from the courtyard, drawing everyone’s eyes instantly towards it.

A dragon’s roar sounded, and a Five-clawed Golden Dragon burst through the walls of the council hall, shattering the only obstruction.

It was only then that people could see the scene in the courtyard: a humanoid creature.

Still in human shape, but its right arm had become enormously enlarged, almost the size of a person on its own, and in its huge clawed hand, it now held Su Chengyu.

"True Dragon Technique? Is that all there is to it? This is the pinnacle of your cultivator’s techniques?"

Completely clasped in the large palm, Su Chengyu not only felt an immense restraint.

He also sensed a force from the hand, a presence he had never felt before, invading his body through his skin, making it impossible for him to muster any mana.

Yang Jun Mo’s eyes widened in shock at this terrifying scene and he exclaimed, "Lin Ran, what are you doing? You... you..."

"He has embraced the Demonic Path."

Bei Tang Ru Meng’s brows furrowed as she instantly assessed the situation and was the first to act without hesitation.

A flash of green sword light streaked towards "Lin Ran", who deftly sidestepped it, dodging the sharp attack.

The green light, under Bei Tang Ru Meng’s control, immediately pivoted and struck towards Lin Ran once more.

"Cease, or I’ll kill this man!" Lin Ran declared, and then the demonic hand squeezed forcefully, crushing Su Chengyu’s insides as blood spurted out.

Seeing this, Bei Tang Ru Meng had no choice but to halt her sword. Her brows knitted tightly as she addressed the demonic Lin Ran, "As a practitioner of the Demonic Path, what exactly is your purpose in storming into the Demon Slaying Conference alone?"

"My purpose? Isn’t it obvious? You want to slay demons, so naturally, I’m here to turn you all into demons!"

"Just by yourself?" Bei Tang Ru Meng spoke with a cold laugh, acknowledging that although the demonic power before her was formidable, he wasn’t the only master of the Hollow Vacuum present.

However, hearing this remark, Lin Ran sneered back, "Who told you I was alone?"
