334: Chapter 334 Both of them have the surname Su... Really?

Su Cheng naturally would not sit around waiting. He wrote down the subsequent three-year operational strategy for the Chamber of Commerce item by item in a Jade Slip and handed it to Li Shi, and also had Zhao Shan arrange the procurement of Spirit Medicine and the distribution process for the Medicinal Pill.

As for those Golden Core Family members who sent posts to probe, he gave a unified reply: "Young Master Su has already left the Prefecture City. For matters regarding the nine-aperture golden spirit pill, please contact the Alchemy Hall of the Danding Sect; for the first-grade supreme grade Medicinal Pill, please queue up to purchase them yourselves every month."

On the last day before leaving, Su Cheng went to the marketplace and bought some things.

At dawn the next day, Su Cheng left the Prefecture City and flew on his Flying Sword toward the Tiangang Sect.

The flying speed of a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator was even faster than at the Early Stage, and after his Meridians were widened, his Qi endurance increased significantly. If he traveled at full speed, he could arrive in three days.

There were two purposes for this trip to the Tiangang Sect:

First, to deliver a Wood Spirit to his sister. He had two Wood Spirits in his hand, one for his father and one for his sister. Whoever reached the Foundation Establishment Peak first would be able to use it.

Su Yunling's Cultivate progress was very fast. According to previous information, she would be able to Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Mid-stage within half a year. With the addition of the top-grade nine-orifice golden spirit pill, her speed would only get faster in the future.

Once she reached the Foundation Establishment Peak, the Wood Spirit would be the key to helping her cross the Golden Core chasm.

Second... he did not plan to hide it anymore.

Having taken first place in the Alchemy Hall Competition previously, the name "Su Cheng" had already spread throughout the Tianlan Province cultivation world.

His sister had stayed in the Tiangang Sect for these years. Honestly speaking, apart from the initial guidance and resources given by the Sect, she had basically not used much from the Sect afterward.

Su Cheng provided enough supreme grade Medicinal Pill, and Zhenpin Pavilion had also been cooperating with all its might. She had never lacked the resources needed for Cultivate.

But to say the Tiangang Sect was useless would be incorrect.

At the very least, it was the Tiangang Sect that gave her an opportunity back then, allowing Su Yunling to focus on her closed-door Cultivate and drive some development for the Family, which was valuable in itself.

However, the Tiangang Sect was ultimately just a Golden Core Sect. Once his sister formed her Golden Core in the future, she definitely would not be able to stay in this place.

Of course, that was a matter for the future; there was no need to worry about it now.

His idea was very simple: this trip was only to ensure his sister had fewer unnecessary troubles, not just within the Tiangang Sect, but more importantly, from the outside.

For example, the Sects in Pingling Prefecture; Su Cheng felt this was a hidden danger. After all, there had already been two great battles between the two prefectures. This was a ticking time bomb, and who knew when the next time would be.

When that time came, his sister, as a member of the Sect, naturally could not stand idly by. But with his identity, whichever side it was would have to give Face, so there would be no need to worry too much about his sister's safety.

It was also mainly because Su Cheng would need to start closed-door Cultivate subsequently and would not have too much energy to focus on the outside world, but some things could not be ignored.

However, the real reason he decided to make his identity public in Qinghe Prefecture was actually the Su Family. (Many forces were not clear about Su Cheng's true identity; the Danding Sect had to keep secrets for its own Disciples, right? And one could not just judge by name; there were plenty of people with the same name.)

The Tiangang Sect was the number one Sect in Qinghe Prefecture. Placing this signboard there was a layer of protection in itself.

Su Cheng was a member of the Danding Sect, and Su Yunling was a member of the Tiangang Sect. Once both sides were revealed, those with ulterior motives in Qinghe Prefecture would naturally have to weigh things carefully.

(After Su Cheng's identity was made public, the development of the Su Family should also accelerate; otherwise, it would completely fail to keep up with his pace, and what would be the point of talking about 'the rich helping the poor'?)

On the afternoon of the third day, the outline of the Tiangang Sect's mountain gate appeared at the edge of his vision.

Su Cheng put away his Flying Sword and landed on the stone steps a hundred feet in front of the mountain gate.

The four Qi Refining Disciples guarding the mountain gate saw someone flying over on a sword, and two of them immediately walked up quickly.

"Senior, please stop. This is the Tiangang Sect's mountain gate. May I ask why Senior has come here..."

Su Cheng took out his Danding Sect Disciple token from his Storage Pouch and handed it over: "I am Su Cheng, a Disciple of Qingmu Peak of the Danding Sect. I have come to visit your Sect on business, and I hope you will report it."

"The Danding Sect!" The two Disciples looked at each other.

Then, after one of the Disciples took the token and verified it, the expression on his Face changed. They did not know if it was real or not, but the other party was a solid Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

And a Danding Sect Disciple taking the initiative to visit? This was the first time.

The Tiangang Sect was a Golden Core Sect, and the Danding Sect was a Nascent Soul Great Sect. The two were far apart and had no dealings with each other; at least, this was the first time these two guarding Disciples had encountered such a thing.

Wait... Su Cheng? Su Cheng of the Danding Sect!

One of the Disciples' Faces changed slightly, then he looked at his companion, and the two exchanged a look.

They had heard this name. A few months ago, news of the Alchemy Hall Competition of the Danding Sect spread throughout the Tianlan Province cultivation world. There was a Foundation Establishment Disciple who refined a top-grade nine-orifice golden spirit pill and took first place in the Alchemy Hall Competition. That person was called Su Cheng.

The two Sects had no intersection, but now that this Su Cheng had come to the door on his own initiative, could it be related to the supreme grade Medicinal Pill? That would be a huge matter, and they could not make the decision.

"Young Master Su, please wait a moment!" The Disciple did not dare to delay and hurriedly took out a communication talisman, infused it with Qi, and sent it into the Sect.

Su Cheng stood in front of the mountain gate and waited, not feeling impatient at all.

About half a cup of tea later, the first streak of light flew out from the direction of the mountain gate.

An old man in a gray robe landed on the stone steps. He was at the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment and was one of the Elders in charge of external affairs for the Tiangang Sect.

The Elder verified the token and confirmed his identity. Just as he was about to start making small talk, two more streaks of light flew over his head.

Then there were three, followed by four or five more.

In less than two sticks of incense, seven or eight streaks of light flew out from the Sect, of various levels. The highest was Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, and the lowest was Foundation Establishment Mid-stage.

In addition to these Elders, many Inner Sect Disciples followed. The news of Su Cheng of the Danding Sect arriving must have spread within the Sect, and they were all peering from behind.

The last to arrive was Tiangang Sect Master Sect Leader Chu Xuanyang, who was at the Foundation Establishment Peak. He wore a blue-green brocade robe and had a calm demeanor.

When he landed, he was accompanied by two accompanying Elders and three Inner Sect deacons. This formation was already of a very high standard.

Naturally, the Golden Core Ancestors would not come. Although Su Cheng was a Disciple of the Danding Sect, no matter how famous he was, he was still just a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator, not yet at the level where a Golden Core True Person would personally come out to welcome him.

However, the Tiangang Sect Master bringing a group of Elders to the scene was enough to give him Face.

"Fellow Daoist Su, you have come from afar, and our Tiangang Sect has failed to welcome you properly." Sect Leader Chu Xuanyang stepped forward and cupped his hands, treating Su Cheng as an equal.

Su Cheng returned the salute: "Sect Master Chu, you are too polite. I have made a presumptuous visit, please forgive me."

"Not at all. It is our Tiangang Sect's honor that a young talent from the Danding Sect is willing to visit our Sect." Sect Leader Chu Xuanyang smiled and raised his hand to lead the way, "Please, come inside. Spirit tea has already been prepared."

Su Cheng did not rush to take a step.

He scanned his surroundings. Over a dozen Foundation Establishment Elders, plus the mountain gate guards and the Disciples who had come to watch the fun, were now a massive crowd.

But the person he wanted to find was not among them.

"Sect Master." Su Cheng spoke, "Junior, besides visiting your Sect, has a private matter to attend to. I wonder where my sister, Su Yunling, is now? I would like to see her."

His sister? Sect Leader Chu Xuanyang was stunned for a moment.

The surrounding Elders and Disciples were also stunned and looked at each other.

Su Yunling, Su Cheng, both surnamed Su... no way?
