249: A life of ease, and enlightenment!
After a long while, Su Yuanba walked out of the inner courtyard, his face filled with confusion and existential doubt, accompanied by a sense of unreality.
Who am I, and where am I?
He felt as if he were dreaming.
Su Yuanba considered himself someone who had seen the world, especially during the time he followed Liu Yunfei, where he had encountered many powerful experts and a vast quantity of Immortal Crystals.
Yet, compared to what Su Chen had given him, those things seemed insignificant.
The gap was simply too vast.
Taking a deep breath, Su Yuanba's eyes gradually became resolute. With Su Chen in the Su Family, he needed to Cultivate diligently from now on.
He would strive to improve his strength as soon as possible.
As for the Su Family's affairs, Ning Yan was handling the internal matters, and there were not many external matters for him to deal with.
Moreover, with his strength at the Late Stage Profound Immortal, what kind of difficulties could he possibly encounter?
In this Fengyu City, everything was within his grasp.
Furthermore, Su Chen had recently killed the Soul-Devouring Venerable to establish authority, so no one dared to provoke them.
After this journey of Ascension, Su Yuanba's internal reliance on Su Chen had decreased significantly.
Su Chen could not be by his side every moment. Just like this Ascension, all crises had to be resolved by himself, so improving his own strength was the most important thing.
This way, even if Su Chen were not by his side in the future, he would have the ability to solve difficulties rather than pinning all his hopes on Su Chen.
"But what kind of background does this kid actually have? It's terrifying. He just tossed me five hundred billion Immortal Crystals right off the bat. Good heavens, that's so many Immortal Crystals; even if it were dirt, it would take half a day to pack it all."
After thinking for a moment, Su Yuanba shook his head. Su Chen's background must be terrifying.
But it didn't matter anymore. Su Chen cared about the Su Family, and he was the head of the Su Family, so whatever background Su Chen had in his past life had nothing to do with them.
Su Yuanba only knew that this was his nephew and also the head of their Su Family.
For him, or perhaps for many in the Su Family.
Su Chen's identity was that of a Reincarnation of some powerful being in the Immortal Realm; otherwise, so many things could not be explained.
After Su Yuanba returned to the new Su Family in Fengyu City, Su Chen spent another two days bringing back the other members of the Su Family who had ascended from the Canglan Realm to Fengyu City.
With his cultivation as a Half-step Immortal Emperor, combined with his Bloodline detection technique, finding people was very simple.
The days that followed fell into tranquility.
For the most central courtyard in the Su Family's inner courtyard, Su Chen still used the old name.
Wangyun Courtyard!
Now, the courtyard was filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, looking extremely cozy; all of this was done by Yan Wanwan.
On this day.
Su Chen lay under an ancient tree in the center of the courtyard. The leaves above were slightly yellowed, blocking the dazzling sunlight, with only scattered rays falling onto the ground, looking like shimmering waves.
In his arms, Yan Wanwan was dressed in light clothing, lying gently against Su Chen.
Because she was wearing very little, her exquisite and youthful figure was displayed to the fullest, and her calves below the knees were exposed to the air.
Her small feet were extremely fair and tender, the soles rosy, without a single callus, looking like an exquisite and flawless object that made one reluctant to let go.
Feeling the delicate body in his arms, Su Chen's face was full of enjoyment.
This kind of life was still the most comfortable.
Upon arriving in the Immortal Realm, he had been searching for people everywhere and had been busy for a while; now, he could finally return to a normal life.
The beautiful woman in his arms carried a faint, refreshing fragrance, which made Su Chen's mood much better.
Suddenly, Yan Wanwan raised her head. Her eyes rippled like autumn water, making one unable to extricate themselves.
"Husband, shall we go to the room?"
Yan Wanwan's enchanting voice rang out, possessing infinite temptation, as if it were tugging at Su Chen's heartstrings.
This little vixen!
Su Chen thought to himself, then without another word, he picked up Yan Wanwan and walked towards the room.
Just kidding.
As a real man, how could he retreat from battle?
In Su Chen's eyes, there was only charging forward; there was no option to retreat.
Time flew by, and soon night fell.
However, the door to the room where Su Chen was remained tightly closed, and with a sound-insulating Formation, the entire courtyard appeared quiet.
Lin Yimeng returned after a busy day. Since the Chenmeng Chamber of Commerce had just been established, many matters required her to manage them, and there had been quite a lot of things to do these days.
She looked curiously at the brightly lit room and walked up to it:
"What are you doing so late?"
Lin Yimeng pushed the door open directly. The scene that met her eyes made her blush. She hurriedly closed the door again and then trotted away.
However, after a moment, Lin Yimeng ran back, pushed the door open, and entered.
The door was tightly closed again, and not a sound came out.
...
Time passed in a flash, and soon a hundred years had gone by.
The Su Family force also gradually spread throughout Fengyu City, becoming a power even stronger than the Xuntian Sect.
Everyone's unified impression of this Family was that it was extremely strong; everyone's Aptitude was very powerful, and the core members all started with an Imperial Physique.
In order to curry favor with the Su Family, the Xuntian Sect even gifted Fengyu City directly to them.
Today.
Su Chen was holding Yan Wanwan's soft hand, strolling through Fengyu City.
Lin Yimeng was handling matters for the Chamber of Commerce, while Ning Yan was wanting to let Yan Wanwan stay alone with Su Chen, not wanting to come and disturb them.
Letting Yan Wanwan stay alone with Su Chen, and next time it would be her turn; this was something all three women understood tacitly.
The feeling of all three of them accompanying Su Chen out for a stroll was different from going out with just two people.
Out and about, Yan Wanwan was very quiet; she didn't clamor to buy this or that, just obediently let Su Chen hold her hand.
Feeling her small hand held by Su Chen's large hand, Yan Wanwan's heart was filled with a sense of security.
Just at this moment, a shout caught Su Chen's attention.
"These are three Sword Intents carved by my Revered Master. The difficulty increases sequentially. Whoever can comprehend one of these Sword Intents will receive a sword technique."
After the young man finished speaking, he pointed to the four jade swords in front of him.
"If you comprehend this white jade sword, you will be gifted an Immortal Rank Grade 3 Low-level sword technique; comprehend this blue jade sword, and you will be gifted a Grade 3 Intermediate sword technique; comprehend this red jade sword, and you will be gifted a Grade 3 Advanced sword technique."
"As for this last black sword, whoever comprehends it will obtain an Immortal Rank Grade 4 sword technique and will also be able to have my Revered Master do one thing for them."
"Is there any Senior or Fellow Daoist willing to give it a try?"
Behind the young man stood four other people; they all had swords at their waists and were clearly all Sword Cultivators.
In the very center, an elderly man with an ethereal, immortal demeanor and white hair sat cross-legged. He kept his eyes tightly closed, as motionless as a mountain.
Many people had already gathered around, but no one went up; they just stood in the distance, pointing and talking.
"Which School are these people from? Does anyone know?"
"I don't know which School they are from, but they came from Qingran City. I heard that wherever these people go, they stay for fifteen days. They seem to have passed through quite a few cities, but never has a single person comprehended their sword techniques."
"Is it really that bizarre?"
"Indeed. They have been sitting in Fengyu City for almost ten days, and so far, it seems no one has comprehended anything, not even the lowest-level white jade sword."
Discussions kept arising. Some people had intended to try, but after hearing that the difficulty was extremely high, they gave up on the idea.
With so many people around, there was no need to lose face.
Of course, there were also some who considered themselves to have superior Comprehension Ability who stepped forward to try, but they all returned dejectedly in the end.
