Chapter 1530: Chapter 1531: Immortals Fight
In the following days, Su Chengyu stayed within Qilong Court waiting for news from Zhao Shijue, and during that time he took down the information Zhao Shijue provided about the woman, planning to inform Su Zi about it after her arrival at the Su Clan so she could investigate it.
After all, within the Su Clan, the best piece on the board was still Su Zi; seeking help from other channels was just making things unnecessarily difficult.
"A woman from Bashu, with a fiery temper and a frail body, yet possessing greater strength than men since childhood. She seems like a natural fit for the Martial Way."
Su Chengyu muttered to himself as he examined the intelligence provided by Zhao Shijue.
Like Xu Nanzhi, who also has Naturally Divine Bones, she was not suited for martial training. However, after the Luo Clan stimulated her bloodline, her innate talent for cultivation was outstanding, even though she had no connection with the martial path.
"I wonder, what Realm has she reached by now?"
Su Chengyu murmured to himself, Xu Nanzhi’s figure emerging in his mind once again.
Since his return from Bei Luo, he planned to visit Xu Nanzhi at Luoshui in Middle State, as he was worried that her cultivation level might be very close to reaching Hollow Vacuum.
After all, he himself had unknowingly stepped into the Late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, and even if Xu Nanzhi deliberately slowed down her cultivation speed, it was likely not far behind under the arrangements of the Luo Clan.
For this reason, Su Chengyu had to personally visit Luoshui to check on Xu Nanzhi’s condition.
"Master, are you thinking about your wife?"
Yu Yanshu, who was sitting by Su Chengyu’s side, blinked and spoke up.
Su Chengyu glanced at her and said, "Gossipmonger, couldn’t I be thinking about Aunt Feng or someone else?"
Yu Yanshu objected, "If Master were thinking about Senior Feng, you definitely wouldn’t be so worried."
Su Chengyu shook his head and said, "I am worried, but not about Aunt Feng’s safety; I’m just wondering whether Aunt Feng has found my father."
Aunt Feng had once instructed that he must not consider going to other domains before achieving Hollow Vacuum, and he understood that Aunt Feng was worried about him getting into trouble, but there were times when he wanted to find his father directly, to find out what had happened back then, and why he had to leave this world.
But unfortunately...
"Teacher, an old man has come to visit, saying that he had made an appointment with you."
The voice of Bai Huang outside the room suddenly rang out, surprising Su Chengyu; when he was at Qilong Court, his Divine Sense presided over the entirety of Qilong Court’s Great Formation, so he should have detected anyone approaching immediately.
And even if he didn’t notice, Master Qiu Tianlin who was in charge would definitely have alerted him.
Now, with no awareness on his part and Qiu Tianlin showing no sign of appearing, Su Chengyu instantly realized who the visitor was, and got up immediately, "Please invite the old gentleman to the study... No, I will go meet him myself."
Bai Huang found Su Chengyu’s behavior a bit odd; since Su Chengyu had returned to the capital, there had not been a shortage of visitors.
Most of the time, Su Chengyu didn’t meet them, and even when he did, he had never displayed this kind of attitude before.
However, after what happened last time, Bai Huang knew not to ask questions that he shouldn’t, and not to show up when he wasn’t supposed to.
On the other hand, Su Chengyu, who quickly walked out of the room, soon saw the Daoist elder who didn’t wear a Taoist Robe, and just looked like an ordinary old man, outside Qilong Court.
The old man hid his presence extremely well; even when seen with his own eyes, to Su Chengyu, the old man just seemed like a very ordinary old man.
"Junior Su Chengyu, greets Master Chang Chun," he said.
Master Chang Chun quietly smiled and replied, "You’re too kind, I am just an ordinary old man today, coming to meet a junior I have heard about several times."
Despite the simple words, they conveyed an unexpected goodwill from Master Chang Chun—Su Chengyu had thought that after dealing with his disciple, Master Chang Chun would at least try to intimidate him, especially since it would be more convenient to gain more advantages for Zhao Shijue.
"Master, you are too polite. Please, come inside."
Su Chengyu broke the silence as Master Chang Chun, smiling, walked into Qilong Court, his steps faltering, resembling a truly venerable elder.
It wasn’t until he entered the main hall that Master Chang Chun spoke, "Such exquisite arrangement, it seems to be the work of a master. Even I am unable to discern what is going on inside from the outside."
"Senior overestimates me."
"Whether I overestimate you, you know best. While the person hasn’t appeared, I can sense the presence of an Earth Immortal Realm aura within your court."
Su Chengyu’s expression changed dramatically, never expecting that even with his teacher’s cautious concealment, Master Chang Chun could still detect clues.
Seeing Su Chengyu’s nervousness, Master Chang Chun smiled and said, "No need to be nervous. Other than myself, only Zhao Kongming and your master could spot these clues, and I have no intention of disclosing this matter."
Upon hearing this, Su Chengyu finally heaved a sigh of relief, then tentatively asked, "Master, you and my teacher... "
"We were once Dao companions who held mutual respect for each other, now we tread our own paths separately."
Master Chang Chun’s words carried deep meaning, unguessable by the inexperienced Su Chengyu, but they affirmed that Master Chang Chun indeed had a significant relationship with his own teacher.
Just as Su Chengyu’s heart had somewhat settled and he was about to speak, Master Chang Chun preemptively asked, "This Dragon Vein, what do you plan to do with it in the future?"
That question instantly made Su Chengyu’s heart race again, uncertain about the intention behind Master Chang Chun’s words. After pondering for a while, he decided to speak the truth.
"Do nothing. Although I’m currently contributing to the Dragon Vein’s foundation, I have no intention of claiming it for myself once it matures."
Master Chang Chun looked at Su Chengyu with a smile and asked, "Are you truly willing to return such a Dragon Vein to Xia Country?"
"I am originally a citizen of Xia Country, what is there to be unwilling about? Throughout my cultivation, the spiritual energy I’ve absorbed, hasn’t it all been born from the Dragon Vein of Xia Country?"
Su Chengyu spoke candidly, and upon seeing this, Master Chang Chun nodded.
"No wonder Cang Qing holds you in such high regard. Such a family vengeance, yet you do not harm the innocent; indeed, you have a few shadows of your grandfather’s past."
Su Chengyu was taken aback and looked up, saying, "Master, you know of my origins?"
Master Chang Chun glanced at Su Chengyu, finally revealing a bit of personal temperament, "If I didn’t know about your origins, why do you think I’d want to see you?"
Su Chengyu swallowed hard and said, "I thought my teacher had never spoken of these things..."
Master Chang Chun chuckled, "He hasn’t, but I was able to divine it."
"Cut the nonsense; you couldn’t even divine my presence here. How could you possibly divine the hidden fates that Su Linyuan has shielded?"
Su Chengyu turned in astonishment, staring blankly at Qiu Tianlin who appeared at some unknown time, and said, "Teacher, why have you come out?"
Qiu Tianlin glanced at Master Chang Chun and said, "This man knows everything about you; what’s the point of me hiding? Besides, don’t be fooled by these people with their fancy airs. Whether they are competent or not is debatable, but they are always good at putting on a show."
"Lord Chou, there’s a saying that you don’t slap someone’s face when you hit them. After so many years, how can you still be the same?"
"I have always been like this, or else how could I end up in this situation?"
"Then you are asking for trouble. Learn from Ye Wujiang, and you wouldn’t have ended up so miserable."
"Can’t learn it! Nor do I intend to learn it!"
Watching the two Immortals fight, Su Chengyu was completely dumbfounded, unable to utter a single word.
