Chapter 1840: Chapter 1841: Tribal Aftermath

Su Chengyu descended steadily back into the cave without any further incident.

Chang Li was the first to notice Su Chengyu’s return, having been worried ever since detecting the commotion at the mining site earlier, and immediately came over to check on Su Chengyu.

Seeing Su Chengyu safe and sound, her long-held anxiety finally eased considerably.

"Master, you..."

"It’s time to leave. The things at the mining site have been taken care of. Though there were some unexpected developments, the outcome could be considered a form of perfection."

Su Chengyu did not plan to say much about what transpired at the mining site. Those matters were still too distant for Chang Li at this point, and knowing too much would not be beneficial for her.

Wise as always, Chang Li seemed to understand this, nodding knowingly and asked, "Is there anything you need my help with, regarding... matters of the humans here?"

Though Su Chengyu outwardly maintained a detached stance towards the tribal people, Chang Li knew clearly that it was because Su Chengyu understood he would eventually leave and didn’t want the humans of the tribe to become overly dependent on him.

In his heart, Su Chengyu still harbored a sense of compassion for his fellow kin.

"I have engraved several stone slabs while at leisure. Deliver them to the designated places according to the standards inscribed. It doesn’t require any elaborate explanation; whatever they can comprehend from it is up to them."

"Understood, Master."

Chang Li nodded without questioning why Su Chengyu would do this, nor was she concerned with what Su Chengyu was leaving behind for them.

She understood that it wasn’t something she needed to comprehend. What Su Chengyu had already given her was more than enough, and what he was willing to give her would only be better.

With Chang Li’s assistance, Su Chengyu no longer needed to personally handle many trivial matters.

Shortly after Chang Li left, the tribal elder who received his Divine Sense arrived outside the cave, together with a young girl.

Su Chengyu sensed the pair outside the cave and, slightly displeased, remarked, "I don’t recall asking you to bring her along."

Upon hearing this, the elder instantly knelt on the ground, pleading, "Master, forgive me. If my niece has done anything that displeases you, please do not hesitate to punish us, no matter the cost."

The girl brought by the elder was precisely the one into whom Su Chengyu had painstakingly implanted a Contract of Destiny, the young girl named Mao.

At this moment, the fate within the girl’s body showed no signs of burgeoning; evidently, she was far from ready to embark on this path that Su Chengyu had laid out for her.

"Come inside, both of you."

Though Mao’s presence was unexpected in Su Chengyu’s plans, he didn’t mind seeing her once more before his departure.

After all, according to the original plan, Su Chengyu intended to observe for a while longer to see how the Cultivation Method within Mao’s body would manifest in the hands of others. Now, it seemed he wouldn’t have the chance to witness it.

The moment the elder and the girl entered, they immediately knelt before Su Chengyu.

The elder was convinced that the girl had offended Su Chengyu, insisting that she bow her head and admit her mistake.

Su Chengyu glanced at the two, not bothering to explain the misunderstanding, and spoke directly.

"I will be leaving by noon tomorrow."

This statement caused the tribal elder’s pupils to dilate instantly, and he began to bow fanatically, pleading for Su Chengyu not to leave just like that.

"Master, if we’ve offended you in any way, feel free to punish us. We’re willing to pay any price..."

"It has nothing to do with you. I was planning to leave anyway, just that due to certain matters, I must depart earlier than anticipated."

Su Chengyu interrupted the elder’s rambling, then added, as if recalling something.

"The Big Monster that kept you captive before is already dead. His followers have also been thoroughly scattered, and pose no threat now. For the foreseeable future, no one from the Demon Clan will dare to harm you, even in my absence."

Previously, She Li had consolidated the local demon clans, ensuring the secrecy of the Vermilion Bird Immortal Core. No other demons were aware of it except himself.

This spared Su Chengyu considerable trouble, as dispersing She Li’s followers naturally caused the surrounding demons to disperse, losing any interest in a mere human settlement.

The tribal elder was momentarily stunned by his words and then recalled the thunder and snowstorm that erupted from the direction of the mining site, slowly piecing things together.

"So, that was because of you earlier..."

"There are questions you shouldn’t ask. What matters is that the incident is over, and no demon clan will dare confront you because of it in the near future. That is enough."

Su Chengyu said coldly, suppressing the elder’s curiosity.

Seeing Su Chengyu’s demeanor, realizing this Immortal-like being was resolute in leaving, he finally abandoned the idea of persuading Su Chengyu to stay and instead asked.

"What about our future?"

Su Chengyu’s cold gaze bore down on the elder: "What, do you want me to pen you up like that demon clan did?"

The elder detected the anger in Su Chengyu’s tone and immediately knelt without daring to lift his head, feeling the intangible pressure that made it difficult for the elder, well over fifty, to even breathe.

Su Chengyu exhaled deeply, ultimately choosing not to dwell on the matter any longer.

He understood what the tribal elder feared—in this demon-dominated world, humans were woefully weak.

Even without the Vermilion Bird Immortal Core drawing trouble, a passing Demon King might one day slaughter the humans here to extinction once Su Chengyu left.

He wasn’t clear why Su Zhedian settled them here, but Su Chengyu couldn’t simply abandon them to their fate, which is why he had taken such measures.

"Your future does not lie in my hands; it rests in your own hands."

Su Chengyu spoke, his gaze settling on the girl: "Mao."

"Master?"

The girl raised her head, her expression surprisingly more composed than the tribal elder’s. After the baptism of the Breath of Destiny, even though Mao had yet to Ascend Dao, her demeanor had changed significantly compared to before.

"I just bade farewell to Yin before returning."

Su Chengyu had expected this news to shake the girl, but surprisingly, she was unfazed.

"I know, I just saw him."

"Oh?"

Su Chengyu looked at the girl’s calm face with some surprise, curious about her Mind State at this moment. _{fr.eew eb novel..com}

Feeling Su Chengyu’s anticipation, the girl took a deep breath and said, "Master, I know you have high expectations for him. I can feel that he is just one step away from the path you described. But even so, I don’t believe I will lose to him."

Taking a deep breath, the girl continued, "Master, you said the future of the tribe is in our own hands. So I will definitely be the one who stands at the forefront, walking faster and further than anyone else!"
