1300: Chapter 1300: Unrivaled for a Mont 1300: Chapter 1300: Unrivaled for a Mont Zhuang Yihan was quite surprised by the answer, though Su Chengyu did not say it explicitly, his expression indicated that Su Chengyu already considered Ye Qingci to possibly lose.
“Although I am not clear on the specifics, I have also heard from my elders that the person who first reached the status of Earth Immortal in this generation will encounter a great opportunity.
Since Ye Qingci reached Earth Immortal before Long Xuan, it doesn’t make sense for her to lose to Long Xuan, right?”
Su Chengyu, who heard of this for the first ti, was a little surprised, but he soon thought of the affair concerning ascending immortality through the dragon gate.
Being the key that unlocked the dragon gate, Su Chengyu was very clear that Ye Qingci, who had leaped through the dragon gate, had received the full blessing of the True Dragon lineage, and benefited imnsely.
Ye Qingci, who entered the Earth Immortal status, could be said to have taken a big step ahead of everyone else who has broken through to the Land Immortal Realm.
If…
she truly beca an Earth Immortal.
Previously, Su Chengyu had not noticed, after all, his strength was not enough to discern Ye Qingci’s condition.
However, when Feng Jie Yu left, she specifically ntioned Ye Qingci’s situation.
The negative effects that not undergoing the Heavenly Tribulation brought upon Ye Qingci were far more severe than Su Chengyu had thought.
It dood Ye Qingci to have no hope of truly transcending tribulation and ascending to immortality, and her physical strength was also far inferior compared to others of the sa realm.
The True Dragon Power made Ye Qingci appear no different from an ordinary Earth Immortal, but when compared to the exceptional ones in the sa realm, this problem would be magnified indefinitely.
“Long Xuan is by no ans an ordinary individual; you should understand this better than .”
Being inconvenient to disclose Ye Qingci’s specific situation, Su Chengyu could only speak in such vague terms.
Zhuang Yihan blinked and it was not appropriate to ask further, he quietly said, “If Long Xuan really defeats Ye Qingci, those voices that belittle the Long family, I estimate that they will soon disappear without a trace.
Be careful.”
Su Chengyu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, the Long family should no longer trouble in the future, at least Long Xuan definitely won’t.”
Zhuang Yihan upon hearing this said, “Is Long Xuan truly willing to concede a life to you?”
Su Chengyu shook his head and said nothing.
No matter what Long Xuan thought, he never believed that Long Xuan truly owed him a life.
However, the death of Long TingSheng marked the end of the grudge between him and the Long family.
The certainty in his eyes at the mont was even more so because he believed that the cause and effect asserted by Long Xuan was heartfelt.
And since Long Xuan was able to be chosen by the Earth Core Lotus, Su Chengyu believed that he was definitely not soone who would easily change his true nature.
Zhuang Yihan, seeing Su Chengyu’s stance, did not bring up his grudge with the Long family again, instead, he made routine inquiries about Long TingSheng’s affair.
Although it was just a formality, it had to be recorded for the Dragon Soul Departnt’s records.
“Indeed, it was Long TingSheng who attempted to ambush , and my godmother acted in killing him.
Master Yang can also attest to this.”
Zhuang Yihan nodded his head upon hearing this; having the corroboration of Yang Chengyin was sufficient.
After asking about other affairs in a cursory manner, Zhuang Yihan stopped taking notes, just about to get up when he suddenly thought of sothing and spoke.
“There’s one more thing—this matter should now be considered an internal matter of the Demon Slayer Departnt.
However, since you are likely to join the Demon Slayer Departnt, I need to ask one more question.”
“Go ahead.”
Su Chengyu believed that Zhuang Yihan would not deliberately make things difficult for him, and if he spoke up, it must be sothing requested by the Dragon Soul Departnt.
“At the Demonic Annihilation Assembly, Lin Ran once demanded you hand over soone.
Do you know what this is about?”
Su Chengyu shook his head: “I have absolutely no idea.
I have never had any contact with people from the Demonic Path.”
After the Demonic Annihilation Assembly ended, Su Chengyu had thought over this issue, but he never had any clue.
Zhuang Yihan pondered for a mont before speaking, “The matter of you joining the Demon Slayer Departnt has actually already been decided by them.
The reason no appointnt has co down yet is largely because of this issue.”
Su Chengyu’s brows furrowed upon hearing this, “Is soone suspecting that I have colluded with the Demonic Path?”
Zhuang Yihan nodded, “Yes, although I trust you, the Capital City is full of people who love to talk, and you can’t shut everyone up.”
Su Chengyu sneered at this remark, “Where were these people when the Demon Slayer Conference went wrong?
I didn’t see anyone lifting a finger to help.
Now all of a sudden, they can’t tolerate even a speck of dust in their eyes.”
Understanding Su Chengyu’s emotions, Zhuang Yihan said, “You don’t have to take it too seriously.
Most of them are just nitpicking to prevent you from joining the Demon Slayer Departnt.
As long as your conscience is clear and they have no evidence in their hands, they can’t change anything.
At most, it will just delay the ti of you joining the Demon Slayer Departnt by a few days.”
Su Chengyu turned and jested, “You, a man from the Dragon Soul Departnt, seem to know quite a lot about these matters.”
Zhuang Yihan rolled his eyes, “How can I not be clear?
Just our family has held two etings about your arrival, and one ti my father even specifically called to join.”
“Oh?
What’s the Zhuang family’s attitude towards ?”
Su Chengyu asked with a smile.
“What else can it be?
They discussed for a long ti without any conclusion, and decided to wait and see, and instructed to maintain a lukewarm relationship with you, that’s enough.”
Zhuang Yihan also didn’t hide anything, speaking frankly to Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu smiled; clearly, the other party’s candor indicated that their attitude towards him was definitely not as indifferent as they claid.
Su Chengyu looked at Zhuang Yihan and spoke with gratitude, “Thank you.”
“Alright, I’ve said what I needed to say.
I should leave.
If I stay any longer, my family will dragoon into an interrogation about what I spoke with you.”
Su Chengyu nodded and stood up to take the initiative to see Zhuang Yihan off.
Right after Zhuang Yihan left, Su Chengyu returned to the seat Zhuang Yihan had sat in and took out a piece of paper from under the teacup he had just used.
“It’s best not to go out recently.”
After reading the content, Su Chengyu didn’t hesitate to burn the paper to ashes and then returned to his own room, acting as if he had never seen anything.
In the following half-month, Su Chengyu stayed inside the residence arranged by Ye Qingci without leaving.
During these days, aside from a few visits from Ye Qingci, no one else had co to see him.
While Su Chengyu stayed indoors, the Capital City underwent earth-shattering changes.
The case of the murder of Xu Jianglong, the Deputy Grand Airspace Officer of the Dragon Soul Departnt of Jiangnan, was thoroughly investigated, resulting in the direct dismissal of the Grand Minister of the east, Helian Xuan.
This further caused a tremor in the national structure of the Dragon Soul Departnt, with quite a few local-level officers dismissed, especially severely within the Jiangdong branch.
Within the Demon Slayer Departnt, following the death of the Red Fla Holy Envoy, not only was the vacant position filled, but the Cangxue Shengshi (Pale Snow Holy Envoy) was also directly dismissed, with both positions filled by the Substitute Holy Envoys from within the departnt.
Yin Feifei, the forr Pale Snow Holy Envoy, encountered an attack from the Demonic Path while being dispatched from the Capital City and completely lost contact; her life or death was unknown.
Prince Jue Zhao Shijue, who had participated in combat privately, was demoted to a Marquis by the Heavenly Son himself and confined to the Marquis’s manor, forbidden to leave the premises for three months.
Long Winter True Man, a forr Quanzhen Disciple, took his own life in the Dragon Soul Departnt prison, not uttering a single word before his death.
Nine Heavens Tower made the latest revision to the Red List, and Su Zi of the Su Clan, once the tenth on the Red List, was kicked off the list.
For the first ti in history, the Red List, which had never featured more than ten people, finally returned to having ten.
…
Significant events radiated from the Capital City at the center towards the whole of Xia Country.
Those with an agenda quickly realized that these seemingly unrelated incidents all had one common na appearing behind them.
Su Chengyu.
A battle of life and death had catapulted the na Su Chengyu onto the desks of all great noble families and ancient clans, making him the talk of the mont.
