Reunion

Western Star Domain, Endless Fierce Realm.

Relying on the space channel opened by Su Wenjian, the journey that should have taken at least a month was shortened to the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Su Ming originally thought the Endless Fierce Realm was just an ordinary Secret Realm, but he never expected the nearby Sects to use it as a selling point, developing a series of supporting industries.

"Why does this feel like a sense of deja vu from my past life, where people set up stalls and hawk their wares at the entrance of a dungeon in an online game..."

The setting of the Endless Fierce Realm itself already made Su Ming feel that it wasn't much different from the online game dungeons before his Transmigration.

Everything before his eyes now gave him the illusion of dreaming back to those years.

Su Ming, feeling quite refreshed by his surroundings, didn't head straight to the point but instead wandered around for a bit.

During this time, he also used 'Fortune and Blessing' and 'Heavens Mandate Vision' to ascertain the surrounding situation.

As for Su Wenjian, he followed behind him in silence throughout, though with a kind expression on his face.

Seeing Su Ming browse through several stalls without purchasing any items, Su Wenjian couldn't help but ask curiously, "Grandson, is there any treasure that has caught your eye?"

"Grandfather, there are indeed many good things here, but I don't really need them."

Su Ming's words were true; whether in terms of offense or defense, he didn't lack Magic Treasures.

As for resources, he lacked them even less.

Coming to the Endless Fierce Realm this time was essentially to temper himself.

Ever since entering the Reincarnation Sword Realm, he hadn't really had a proper battle with anyone.

Now that he had the chance, Su Ming naturally wouldn't let it pass.

"Grandson, come here for a moment." Su Wenjian beckoned to Su Ming.

With confusion, Su Ming came before Su Wenjian, and the latter immediately reached out a finger and tapped it on his forehead.

Su Ming then noticed a change in the items column on his panel.

The previous quantity of *2 heavenly dao realm will had changed to *3.

Su Wenjian said earnestly, "Grandfather has left a strand of will on you to protect you at a critical moment. Therefore, in the upcoming battles within the Endless Fierce Realm, I hope you can refrain from relying on your own Magic Treasures."

This was exactly what Su Ming was thinking as well.

"Don't worry, Grandfather. Grandson understands."

No longer interested in the surrounding stalls, Su Ming headed toward the entrance of the Endless Fierce Realm.

When he arrived, he found that this place actually required paying Spirit Stones to enter.

The forces around the Endless Fierce Realm had indeed turned this place into an industry.

Just as Su Ming was about to take out the money, a very familiar voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Put this person's entry fee on my tab."

Su Ming subconsciously thought he had misheard, but when he turned around and saw her face, he revealed a long-absent, heartfelt smile.

Who else could the person before him be but Luo Ningshuang, from whom he had been separated for a long time?

Su Ming stepped forward quickly and pulled her into his arms. "Long time no see, Ningshuang..."

Luo Ningshuang didn't struggle at all while being held; instead, she obediently buried her face in Su Ming's chest.

Su Ming could sense Luo Ningshuang's current cultivation level: Peak Star Realm.

During the months they were apart, she must have been cultivating very hard; otherwise, it would have been impossible to reach this Realm in such a short time.

Su Wenjian looked at Luo Ningshuang embracing Su Ming and the Jade Pool Holy Land Disciple uniform she wore, and he roughly guessed who she was.

So he hurriedly began rummaging through his storage ring.

This was his future Granddaughter-in-law, after all; he had to give her a grand gift no matter what.

But just at this moment, someone had to jump out and spoil the mood.

"How dare you, Luo Ningshuang! A Disciple of the Jade Pool Holy Land should conduct herself with dignity. To think you'd be hugging and clinging to a man you've never met before—where is your sense of propriety!"

The voice was sharp and mean, making one feel uncomfortable immediately upon hearing it.

Hearing this voice, Luo Ningshuang's expression instantly soured.

Having bumped into Su Ming, she only wanted to spend a little more time with him; she had no patience to deal with the Elder of the Jade Pool Holy Land.

"Who is she?" Su Ming looked at the sour-faced old woman.

"An Elder of the Jade Pool Holy Land named Granny Sun. She belongs to another faction. She's the leading Elder for the Jade Pool Holy Land's trial in the Endless Fierce Realm this time."

Luo Ningshuang had returned to the Jade Pool Holy Land with the jade pool heavenly lock and held the status of the Jade Pool Empress's successor. It was obvious she would be targeted by another faction within the Holy Land.

Su Ming could fully imagine how much grievance Luo Ningshuang had suffered in the Jade Pool Holy Land.

"It's been hard on you... If I had known, I wouldn't have let you go to the Jade Pool Holy Land back then..."

"No," Luo Ningshuang shook her head and said, "I don't regret going to the Jade Pool Holy Land. Only here can I truly catch up to your footsteps. I said I didn't want to be just a pretty face by your side."

"I understand your choice, but that doesn't mean some old fogey can insult you so brazenly in front of me."

As Su Ming spoke, he looked coldly at Granny Sun ahead.

"Hmm?!" Granny Sun had clearly heard Su Ming's words and roared, "You ignorant brat, how dare you speak to me like that! I think you've grown tired of living!"

"Since you, Luo Ningshuang, have tarnished the reputation of my Jade Pool Holy Land, I'll strike both you and this wild man to death!"

Luo Ningshuang's expression changed upon hearing this. "Run, quickly! Granny Sun is in the Great Void Realm. I have the jade pool heavenly lock to protect me, so I'll be fine."

"Want to leave now? Too late!" Granny Sun channeled her spiritual power and struck at Su Ming and Luo Ningshuang.

However, as soon as this palm strike was launched, it was directly neutralized by Su Wenjian.

"For the Jade Pool Holy Land to let an aged shrew be an Elder is truly laughable."

"Who are you? I advise you not to meddle in other people's business! Otherwise, you will be making an enemy of the Jade Pool Holy Land!"

"What kind of thing is the Jade Pool Holy Land?" Su Wenjian looked coldly at Granny Sun, then released his pressure. "Are they even worthy of touching my Grandson and Granddaughter-in-law?!"

The pressure of the Heavenly Dao Realm descended directly upon Granny Sun, causing her previously sharp and mean expression to change instantly.

Luo Ningshuang was shocked. Since Su Xiu, she had understood that Su Ming came from the Su Family of the Outer Void.

And the Jade Pool Empress, who had regained some of her memories, had also explained the mystery of the Su Family to her.

She just never expected that she would meet the head of the Su Family, Su Ming's grandfather, so soon.

Thinking of Su Wenjian's mention of "Granddaughter-in-law" just now, Luo Ningshuang's pretty face couldn't help but turn red.

"How can the people of my Su Family be ordered around by your Jade Pool Holy Land? Is this how Fairy Yan, the acting Sect Leader, educates her subordinates?!"

Faced with Su Wenjian's thunderous questioning, Granny Sun was so terrified that she knelt on the spot, unable to move.

She had finally caught an opportunity to make trouble for Luo Ningshuang, but she never expected to kick a steel plate.
