Chapter 144 - 144: 096 Ancient Map, Ice and Fire Dual-Three Step Cave Mansion (10k subscription request)_3
When Su Yu saw Yu Ke'er appear with the two sisters Lan Xi and Lan Gong, he was somewhat surprised.
Why would they be here?
A moment later, Su Yu finally found out from Lan Xi that some changes had occurred in the Bai Yue Immortal City.
As the years went by, Xu Wansheng had reached the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm and had become increasingly domineering, extending the true hall's influence into more areas of the Bai Yue Immortal City.
Previously, many cultivators could tolerate this.
However, recently, Elder Tianpu had returned from the site of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate and was now confronting the True Hall. Tianpu, a false Core Formation powerhouse and a senior disciple of True Man Bai Yue, was on one side, while on the other side stood a ninth level Foundation Establishment cultivator who was also a second-level superior alchemist and artifact refiner. This cultivator had a group of talented disciples. The situation seemed to be taking form.
This resulted in a tense atmosphere permeating the entire Bai Yue Immortal City.
It was so tense that the sisters Lan Xi and Lan Gong had both fled and dared not stay in the Bai Yue Immortal City.
Elder Tianpu wanted to seize control of the True Hall.
However, as True Man Bai Yue had not appeared for some time, it made Elder Tianpu anxious. He was forced to rush back to Bai Yue Immortal City to manage the mess.
So, thought Su Yu, Elder Tianpu had no choice but to take action himself?
At this thought, Su Yu couldn't help but feel his heart stirring.
If even the Bai Yue Immortal City fell into chaos, it was likely that items such as elixirs, talismans, formations, monster puppets, etc., would sell well again, right?
"It seems I should stock up on some elixirs, talismans, and monster puppets for the Su Family after the black market event ends," Su Yu thought, a slight smile appearing on his face.
First, stock up on goods, then sell them off when they become popular.
He had made a good profit from the previous few bouts of chaos.
One instance was the conflict between the Chen and Bai families, and another was the conflict between the righteous and demonic factions at the Eight Demons Ridge.
I wonder when the two disciples of True Man Bai Yue will start their battle?
Su Yu was rather looking forward to seeing infighting in the Bai Yue Immortal City as he held no affection for it.
The sisters Lan Xi and Lan Gong had come to Danshan. Although they were to serve as maids by Su Yu's side, they had no qualms about it.
After all, Su Yu's reputation was quite good at present, especially in the Yunjian Sect region.
He had already vaguely earned the title of the number one person below the second-level superior alchemist.
They were only ninth-level Qi Refinement cultivators, so it wasn't shameful to serve Su Yu as maids.
Of course, they were just maids.
They never had the intention of becoming women who completely relied on Su Yu.
...
Two days later.
A beast known as a Cloud Tiger soared into the sky from Danshan, with its wings flying majestically. As a second-level supreme beast, its speed far surpassed that of the current mid-level second-grade black-scale eagle and double-headed blood eagle.
On the back of the Cloud Tiger, Su Yu, Li Pingchang, Yu Ke'er, Lan Xi, and Lan Gong were all seated cross-legged. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Due to the excess yin energy, Su Yu had also called out Li Pingchang to head to the black market with him.
"Pavilion Master, are you saying that True Man Bai Yue might be reaching his life limit soon? Otherwise, why hasn't he shown up for such a long time? His two disciples seem to be on the verge of fighting, and we haven't seen him at all," asked Li Pingchang, looking shocked and uncertain after hearing about the situation of Bai Yue Immortal City from the Lan sisters.
Su Yu shook his head; he had never even seen True Man Bai Yue.
How could he know about True Man Bai Yue's lifespan?
But as for the Yunjian Sect...
There had been several rumors that their lifespan was almost over. Su Yu wondered if the time had come?
After that, Li Pingchang also fell silent, and the Cloud Tiger reached the black market in only half a month without any conversation on the way.
Shortly after arriving at the black market, Su Yu was pleasantly surprised to find that his cousin Su Zhi had already returned. Along with Su Zhi, many talents from other powers had also come back, bringing the same lively atmosphere to the black market as during the auction in the previous years.
In the cave dwelling.
Su Yu asked someone to invite Su Zhi over. Seeing that Su Zhi's arms, legs, her fair and delicate face, and other parts were intact without changes, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Yu said, "You scared me by disappearing for eight years."
With a hand covering her mouth in a light laugh, Su Zhi, looking more mature than before, said to Su Yu, "Were you worried about me? I'm now at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment Realm. I had some good opportunities there, it was not bad."
Then, she added, "It's a pity that you didn't come with us. If you had, you might have found some opportunities and maybe even had a chance to form a Core in the future."
Su Yu gently shook his head and said, "I don't feel regret. My current cultivation level is quite good. I am making steady progress. Both my earth and wood attributes now have reached the third level of Foundation Establishment Realm."
The fact that he cultivated both earth and wood attributes was not a secret. He never concealed the mana aura of the Xuan Ming Thick Earth Art; at least the high-ranking members of the Su Family knew.
After a small talk.
Su Yu asked, "Did you come back alone, Sister? How about Taoist Friend Luo...?"
Su Zhi shook her head, "Sister Luo is fine, she is just still inside the secret ruins and hasn't come out yet, so I came back first."
"By the way."
Su Zhi suddenly took out a piece of parchment from her Qiankun bag, handed it to Su Yu, and said, "This is one of the things I obtained in Tianfeng Palace ruins. It's not useful for me. Check if it's useful to you."
What is it?
When Su Yu unfolded the parchment, his pupils shrank slightly in surprise and excitement. "An ancient map?"
This map was titled "Full View of Luoyue Lake."
The topography on the map was completely different from the modern layout of the Da Yue Prefecture; it depicted a lake with numerous islands. The names of those islands were also recorded on the map.
