Chapter 889: Chapter 889: Encounter with the Purple Garment Again

"Aren’t you the one who brought up this subject? And now you’re blaming me?" Lin An asked with a light laugh, covering her mouth.

"Ah... right, right, my bad, my bad," Su Chengyu rolled his eyes and closed his mouth.

"Don’t be discouraged," Lin An said. "Although you’re only at the Tongxuan Realm now, after I help you obtain the Qingming Spiritual Leaf, you’ll be able to refine Dragon Spirit Pills to elevate your realm. Once we leave the Kunwu Realm, I’ll give you ten Creation Pills to aid your cultivation, and your realm will rise rapidly. Moreover, the fact that you acquired the True Dragon Divine Bone and the queen serpent’s bone in the Snake Spirit Desert under such circumstances shows that your luck is extremely strong. Even if you might not become an Immortal, you should achieve great success."

"You really know how to comfort someone, don’t you?" Su Chengyu said.

"How about this, would you like to join the Dragon Soul Department or the Demon Slayer Department? I can recommend you," Lin An suggested.

"Not interested. I’m used to my freedom and dislike being restricted by others," Su Chengyu declined.

"Don’t be so quick to refuse. If you join the Dragon Soul Department or the Demon Slayer Department, with my family’s influence, you could rise through the ranks easily. It would be like having a powerful support in life, offering you extra protection as you venture the world," Lin An persuaded.

"Then I’ll consider it," Su Chengyu relented.

Despite Su Chengyu’s lack of interest, he did not outright reject Lin An’s kindness to his face.

As the two chatted casually, they unknowingly arrived at Gumu City.

They landed outside Gumu City and walked into the ancient city, which resembled a ruin. There were quite a few people in Gumu City, with trialists seen everywhere.

"By the way, have you been to the Ascending Heaven Tower?" Lin An asked.

"Not yet. There’s no rush to visit the Ascending Heaven Tower, right? If my realm were higher, I’d have a better chance at climbing higher. Who wouldn’t want to reach as high as possible?" Su Chengyu replied.

"Your thinking is sound. You only get one chance to climb the Ascending Heaven Tower, so you must prepare well," Lin An said.

"Your goal must be the tenth level, Heaven beyond Heaven, right?"

"Of course! I’m determined to reach Heaven beyond Heaven. I have confidence in myself," Lin An declared.

Touching his nose, Su Chengyu thought that if Lin An couldn’t reach Heaven beyond Heaven, then probably none of the trialists of this generation would have the capacity to do so.

Heading towards Gumu City’s Teleportation Circle, they heard many people discussing the events in the Snake Spirit Desert. The annihilation of the Snake Tribe was a major event that had shocked the entire Kunwu Realm.

Neither Su Chengyu nor Lin An was interested in the discussions and headed straight for the Teleportation Circle. However, at that moment, the circle flickered with light, signaling that someone was teleporting from the other side.

A figure clad in purple emerged in the circle. Su Chengyu focused his gaze and saw it was the purple-robed woman who was suspected to be Xu Nanzhi.

"She’s come to the West District now."

Upon seeing the purple-robed woman, Su Chengyu felt a surge of excitement. Lin An, standing beside him, asked, "Do you know her?"

"She resembles someone I used to know, but she wears a veil so I can’t be sure of her identity. I encountered her once in the East District," Su Chengyu explained.

"Isn’t that simple? Just remove her mask," Lin An suggested.

"Forget it. That would be quite impolite, and besides, I’m no match for her. Wait for me a moment; I’ll go and say hello."

As the purple-robed woman walked out of the Teleportation Circle, she flew away in another direction. Su Chengyu quickly performed The Cloud Rising Technique to chase after her.

Shortly after Su Chengyu set off in pursuit, the purple-robed woman turned and sent a streak of Sword Qi his way, forcing him to quickly dodge.

"What are you following me for?" the woman in purple asked icily.

"I mean no harm, I just saw you coming out of the Teleportation Circle and wanted to come over and say hello."

Su Chengyu really wanted to know if she was, indeed, Xu Nanzhi.

"I’m not familiar with you, nor do I owe you any favors, so why the greeting! Stop following me, or don’t blame me for being rude to you," the woman in purple said indifferently.

"Where are you going?" Su Chengyu asked.

"It’s none of your business."

After saying that, the woman in purple suddenly accelerated, flew out of Gumu City, and Su Chengyu did not follow. He simply watched as her figure disappeared from his sight, watching for a long while until Lin An’s voice came from behind, "Are you going to the Air Mulberry Valley or not?"

"Ah... yes, of course, I’m going."

Su Chengyu gathered his wits and flew back to the Teleportation Circle with Lin An. Lin An said, "She must be the woman you love, right?"

"I don’t know, I’m not sure. I can only say she looks very similar; her silhouette is very similar, her profile is very similar, and her speaking voice is almost exactly the same, not to mention they both come from the same family," Su Chengyu said.

Upon hearing this, Lin An’s facial expression changed slightly, and there was a subtle shift in her eyes, but she quickly returned to normal and teased, "But she is quite cold to you, isn’t she? She doesn’t give you the time of day at all. Are you unrequited in your affection, or did you simply mistake her for someone else?"

"How could it be unrequited! We love each other deeply, but our fates are fraught with hardship and obstacles. Perhaps, indeed, I am mistaken. If it were truly her, she would never treat me like this."

Su Chengyu turned back to look once more in the direction the woman in purple had left, his eyes filled with a touch of sadness. Lin An, watching at his side, pursed her lips and said, "Now I’m a bit curious. Could you tell me the story between you and her?"

"Let’s talk about it when we have time. For now, let’s go to Mist City. You’re wealthy, so you can cover the cost of using the Teleportation Circle," Su Chengyu said with a grin.

"Hmph! You’re such a money-grubber. Never mind then, this... this miss isn’t interested at all, who would want to hear your story!"

Lin An scoffed with a tsundere expression and immediately threw a hundred Heavenly Pills, activated the Teleportation Circle, and let Su Chengyu go first.

After Su Chengyu disappeared from the Teleportation Circle, Lin An turned back to look in the direction the woman in purple had flown off to, murmuring to herself, "Next time I meet you, I will surely remove your veil to see who you really are, what you look like! Participating in the trial in the Kunwu Realm while wearing a veil, do you think your status is higher than mine?"

After saying that, Lin An activated the Teleportation Circle and transported herself to Mist City in the South District.

As the light in front of Lin An dissipated, she was already at the Teleportation Circle in Mist City when a Sword Qi attacked her, but the Teleportation Circle was protected by a Formation, and the Sword Qi dispersed immediately.

Lin An frowned and saw that Su Chengyu was currently fighting someone.

"Just got here and already fighting?"

Lin An stepped out of the Teleportation Circle, and saw a man wearing a Taoist robe and holding a horsetail whisk fighting fiercely with Su Chengyu. Another Taoist dressed similarly was watching the battle.

Recognizing the cloud pattern embroidered on the Taoist’s robes, Lin An identified their affiliation.

"Quanzhen Disciple..."

Lin An, exceedingly clever, understood why the fight with Su Chengyu had broken out after recognizing their identity; it must be related to Su Chengyu practicing the Quanzhen Daoism, and they would surely be determined to investigate and then purge their ranks.

This person was indeed Tang Jian, the Quanzhen Disciple who had been investigating Su Chengyu’s whereabouts!
