Chapter 1055: Chapter 1054: The Boat Will Straighten When It Reaches the Bridge
"At that ti, you were battling at the center of the lake while we stayed at the shore. There was quite a distance between us, and generally, no one could just traverse it in the blink of an eye. I was puzzled; how did he manage to get across?" Huo Tian recalled the situation of the day.
"Grandpa Huo, if I told you that the old man moved like the Wave-Riding Light Steps from a TV show, would you believe it?" Su Changfeng asked. At that mont, from his angle, he saw the old man stepping onto the water, moving at an incredible speed, sothing beyond scientific explanation; his fear of entering Tuo Shi was exactly due to this. Despite being considered a master in the mundane world now, entering Tuo Shi would an he’d have no qualifications to spar.
"You’re saying he walked directly on the water?" Huo Tian expressed his disbelief, finding it unimaginable, sothing he deed impossible.
"I happened to see it myself and didn’t believe it at first, but later I specifically asked Liu Junyang if there was anything supporting under the water," Su Changfeng explained.
Feeling shocked, Huo Tian furrowed his brow; such bizarre occurrences he hadn’t heard of in all his years, thinking before that it was rely a TV scene until Su Changfeng told him.
"The Tuo Shi world indeed is a realm full of talents and hidden masters," Huo Tian mused.
After a long pause, Su Changfeng began speaking to Huo Tian, "Grandpa Huo, what kind of mystical world do you think Tuo Shi is? Why do they exist in this world?"
While Su Changfeng was amazed by Elder Wu’s magical abilities, he was more curious about why Tuo Shi existed. After all, the people of Tuo Shi are all capable, gathering now for simple sparring seed too trivial, so their existence must have a purpose, possibly not only affecting Tuo Shi or the mundane world but humanity itself...
"Could it be they’re protecting sothing? Or perhaps combating so formidable force?" Huo Tian thought out loud, reconsidering before further pondering, "Besides this, maybe they’re policing these powerful individuals to ensure they don’t disturb the lives of mundane people."
"I think they are opposing so force. Previously, that old fellow even asked
what changes I’d make if I had the ability," Su Changfeng rembered Elder Wu’s question, speaking softly.
Regarding the old fellow’s real identity, Huo Tian and Ye Qingtian suspected strongly that the elder was Elder Wu, wanting to accept Su Changfeng as a direct disciple. Although there was no concrete evidence yet, based only on his words and so details, his true identity was apparent. If he was truly rely sent by Wu to execute a task, why adopt Ye Nianhai as a granddaughter, especially given Yang Junming’s deferential attitude toward him—it resembled the behavior of a subordinate toward a superior, exceedingly respectful and obedient.
What’s more, his questions to Su Changfeng clearly indicated more than a re errand boy.
The vast world is bound to change, but if it were due to Su Changfeng, it might seem insane to outsiders; yet coming from Elder Wu, the aning was different.
"Changfeng, have you ever thought carefully about the old man’s real identity?" Huo Tian pondered before asking.
Su Changfeng smiled slightly and spoke, "Grandpa Huo, do I even need to think about it? From the start, he didn’t directly tell
his na, deliberately hiding it, indicating he doesn’t want
to know. If I can’t infer that he is Elder Wu from this point, my intelligence wouldn’t suffice to consider going to Tuo Shi."
At that very mont, Elder Wu, who was soundly sleeping in Tuo Shi, suddenly awoke, saying, "Why am I suddenly thinking about it? Could soone be gossiping?"
Upon hearing Su Changfeng’s reasoning, Huo Tian smiled and nodded, saying, "Previously, your grandfather and I felt that the elder might be the Wu of Tuo Shi."
"Even now, I still don’t know his exact position in Tuo Shi, but just from his previous question, it’s clear these aren’t words spoken lightly," Su Changfeng remarked, furrowing his brow.
After hearing this, Huo Tian understood so as well; with soone of Elder Wu’s status, he wouldn’t ask such questions of an outsider casually. The fact that he did indicates he trusts Su Changfeng greatly, and this might reveal the purpose of Tuo Shi’s existence—not rely to avoid disturbing mundane lives.
"The boat will naturally straighten when it arrives at the bridge, everything might be destined. Grandpa Huo believes no matter how big the difficulty, it will eventually be resolved; it’s just a matter of ti," Huo Tian concluded, clinking glasses with Su Changfeng.
Su Changfeng laughed and said, "Grandpa Huo, do you think I can handle everything like an invincible Iron Man?"
Upon saying this, Su Changfeng instantly regretted; this statent carried such weight, bearing such responsibility. Who would dare utter such a description in this world?
Yet Huo Tian didn’t laugh, maintaining a solemn expression, not perceiving Su Changfeng as joking, solemnly saying, "Though you are currently far from that, Grandpa Huo believes with ti and experience, you will achieve it, because you must be strong to protect those you love."
Protecting those you love.
This statent really struck Su Changfeng’s heart; if faced with obstacles, even if he must break apart to overco, he would pay any price. For this, Su Changfeng was willing to forge ahead.
"Grandpa Huo, I will keep this in my heart always, no matter what challenges I face, I’ll fight with all my might to survive," Su Changfeng declared with determination.
At this mont, Huo Tian stood up from his chair and said to Su Changfeng, "Let’s go; it’s getting late, we should head back. Han Xue is probably waiting at ho; I saw the light in her room still on."
Su Changfeng suddenly realized, hurrying to check his watch; it was already five a.m., soon to be daylight. He couldn’t let Shen Hanxue wait like this.
Initially planning to escort them ho, now his wife awaited him, so naturally, he decided to head ho first.
