1030: Chapter 1030: Is This How You Test a Cultivator?
“I’m sorry I missed the trial in the Kunwu Realm,” Su Chengyu spoke, “My master said my strength wasn’t enough, and going would have been akin to seeking death.
So I entered seclusion for a while and then went down the mountain to gain experience.
I just returned from Dadao Mountain a couple of days ago.”
“Dadao Mountain?
What place is that?” Bei Tang Qianxiao responded, sowhat surprised by the na Su Chengyu ntioned, having never heard of it before.
“It’s an ancient peak in the west.
Half a month ago, an Immortal Mansion appeared there, and various martial arts sects went to fight for it.
Many cultivators also showed up.
It caused quite a commotion.
Mhm…
I was at Dadao Mountain at that ti as well.”
Number Two spoke casually, always well-inford when it ca to intelligence.
“Number Two, I heard that several experts from the Dragon Soul Departnt went there, and the Dragon Soul Eighteen Guards ended up with one dead and one injured—is that true?”
“True or false, couldn’t you check it yourself?”
Facing Yang Junmo’s probing question, Number Two clearly couldn’t be bothered, dismissing Yang Junmo with a single sentence.
Yang Junmo, feeling snubbed, shifted his target: “Number Seven, did you find any good loot at Dadao Mountain?”
“No, after I arrived at Dadao Mountain, I sensed sothing odd and chose not to go too deep.
Then chaos erupted, and with my inadequate strength, I dared not get close to the hot spot.
So, I’m unclear about what happened inside later.
It’s a pity I forgot to ntion it in the group at the ti.
If I’d been able to team up with Number Two, maybe I could’ve gone deeper and seen if there were any opportunities to seize.”
“Even if you had asked, I wouldn’t have recomnded you go deeper, let alone take you with .”
“Why is that?”
Su Chengyu continued to inquire.
“That purported Immortal Mansion was a disguise.
In reality, it was the legacy of a cultivator from the Demonic Path.
Now, Xia Country has started investigating those who obtained the legacy.
The less you’re involved, the better.”
As expected.
Upon hearing Number Two’s response, Su Chengyu’s suspicion was confird.
Out of all the ssages he looked up on the Nine Heavens Dark Web, it was this Dadao Mountain incident that had caught Su Chengyu’s attention the most.
The ergence of an Immortal Mansion and the subsequent struggle between powers were normal.
However, the event at Dadao Mountain, where even the Dragon Soul Eighteen Guards died, was totally irrational.
Su Chengyu broached the subject in the group chat not only to cover up his own identity but also to see what insights others in the group might have about it.
“The Demonic Path, huh?
It’s been many years since I heard that term.
The Demon Slayer Departnt has been lax these past two years.” Yang Junmo remarked with a sigh, but his words fell on deaf ears, as everyone could see who he was really trying to probe—whether Number Two originated from the Demon Slayer Departnt!
Realizing his attempt was too blatant, Yang Junmo did not persist but bluntly addressed everyone.
“Boring, you’re all like old turtles, I’m out, I’ve got things to do tonight.”
“Number Six, what could you possibly be busy with so late?”
Chen ngng asked worriedly, knowing that Su Chengyu had asked Yang Junmo for help before leaving.
“Just minor stuff, it’s not a big deal.
You focus on your cultivation up in the mountains, don’t worry about the outside world.”
“Up in the mountains?”
Number Two quickly picked up on those words, asking directly.
Yang Junmo, realizing his slip, vanished in an instant, offering no further response.
Su Chengyu also felt a pang of distress for Chen ngng, with such an unreliable person knowing her identity, it was only a matter of ti before Yang Junmo spilled the beans.
However, Chen ngng’s identity was pretty much an open secret by now.
She had already said that Su Chengyu was her older brother, and with the intelligence of the group, it wouldn’t be a hard guess.
Bei Tang Qianxiao already knew from the Kunwu Realm that Number Three was Chen ngng and Number Six was Yang Junmo.
Su Chengyu originally intended to inquire about Yu Shuang’s situation, but Liu Yan suddenly stirred, and Su Chengyu imdiately closed the group chat and returned his focus to reality.
Liu Yan’s consciousness gradually returned as she opened her eyes in a daze, seeing the smiling Su Chengyu by her side, she beca mostly lucid and subconsciously reached out to touch her own face.
Feeling the smooth touch under her fingertips, Liu Yan couldn’t believe it and opened her phone’s front cara.
The next second, her eyes welled up with tears.
“ChengYu, am I really cured now?”
With a smile, Su Chengyu spoke softly, “Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”
“Cut it out, you n can say anything when sweet-talking a woman.”
Liu Yan playfully glared at Su Chengyu, but the joy in her eyes couldn’t be hidden.
Su Chengyu went up to her and gently hugged Liu Yan, whispering in her ear, “I don’t know about other people, but I never lie to my own woman.”
“Thank you, ChengYu.”
Liu Yan’s whole body relaxed into Su Chengyu’s arms, rarely showing her feminine vulnerability in front of him.
The lingering scent of the dicine mixed with Liu Yan’s delicate fragrance entered Su Chengyu’s nostrils, leaving him parched with desire.
After all, it had been over half a year since he last indulged!
Liu Yan, noticing the change in Su Chengyu’s body, turned to him with a smile, “Shall we go ho or to a hotel?”
“Right here!”
As Su Chengyu spoke, he could no longer restrain himself and pounced on Liu Yan.
Liu Yan’s long legs naturally wrapped around Su Chengyu, and soon the room overflowed with hints of spring.
A reunion was even sweeter than a new marriage, and their ti apart felt as grave as life and death.
Once the tempest had subsided, Liu Yan leaned on Su Chengyu and softly said.
“Sister NanZhi and I are so lucky to have t you.”
Su Chengyu shook his head, “No, I am the lucky one to have t you both.”
Liu Yan’s gaze shifted instantly, knowing what Su Chengyu ant, and softly said, “Trust in Sister NanZhi’s choices then.
She may seem fragile, but she’s actually much stronger than on the inside.”
“I know, but I still worry about her.
You too, of course.”
Liu Yan tensed up and hurriedly asked, “Have you found out who was behind it?”
Su Chengyu nodded, “Black Dragon Comrce Association.
Honestly, I didn’t expect them to be able to find Lin Jiang, but since they’ve dared to make a move, they can’t bla for being impolite.”
“There won’t be any trouble, right?”
“No problem, I have everything arranged.
We just wait for the news tomorrow morning.”
Su Chengyu had given Stone Sword Edge a day, but if he couldn’t provide an answer by dawn, Su Chengyu wasn’t planning to wait any longer.
The hazard could be blocked later.
How the Black Dragon Comrce Association found him, Su Chengyu could as well personally get that information from Xiang Yuesheng’s mouth.
“What about tonight then?
You’re not planning on just leaving and abandoning here, are you?”
Liu Yan looked at Su Chengyu with pitiable eyes, adopting the lonely air of a woman confined to her chamber.
Feigning equanimity, Su Chengyu who was slightly fatigued after their exertions, said, “Is this how you test a Cultivator?
Which Cultivator can withstand such a test?”
“How about this then?”
Liu Yan blinked and then gently lifted the sleep robe she had just put on, revealing most of her slender jade leg.
“If I don’t satisfy you, this little temptress, tonight, then I don’t deserve to be a Cultivator!”
“Ah!”
Accompanied by Liu Yan’s scream, Su Chengyu once again pounced on her like a famished tiger.
Downstairs, Mi Feifei, who had long noticed what the two were up to, giggled to herself and then left the bar without making a sound.
Tonight, this place was a love nest solely for the two of them.
