Chapter 437: Elder Su Heng Might Not Think Much of Me
Chapter 437: Elder Su Heng Might Not Think Much of Me
The Second Elder, Elder Su Heng, no longer paid much attention to his appearance, looking somewhat disheveled.
During the banquet, when Su Chen spoke of Elder Su Heng's exceptional demeanor, it didn't quite match the current state of the Second Elder.
Hearing this, the Second Elder let out a light hum.
"When I was young, I was renowned as a handsome young talent among the surrounding sects.
To put it bluntly, your grandmother was attracted to my looks and insisted on her own initiative, insisted on marrying me.
How dare you say that our alchemists are unattractive."
"Go to Zhu Ming Palace and see for yourself. Among our alchemists, who doesn't possess some talent?"
Hearing her grandfather's rebuttal, Ming Yao Yao couldn't help but smile.
All three of them practiced at Fengyu Tower and looked out for each other in their daily lives.
- Heaven's Blade Technique -
"Senior Sister Yao Yao, do you think Elder Su Heng might cause some trouble?"
Elder Su Heng is our honorary elder at Zhu Ming Palace. As members of Zhu Ming Palace, we will go together to participate in the Sacred Jade Tournament.
After the banquet, Ming Yao Yao went to her grandfather, most likely to talk about these matters.
Lu Jia quickly thought of some reasons to prevent her grandfather from continuing his nagging.
"Let him experience it himself, then he'll know to cherish it."
Although Elder Su Heng is an elder, he is of similar age to us.
He is also able to sense her little granddaughter's tricks.
Having a Transformation Realm powerhouse like him in the sect would undoubtedly elevate the sect's influence.
Many times, Senior Sister Yao Yao, you need to take the initiative.
Let him see you getting close to Elder Su Heng, and let it stew in his mind.
With both of her close ones saying this, Ming Yao Yao seriously considered their words.
Among the disciples of Zhu Ming Palace over the years, the one with the most outstanding martial talent is probably her granddaughter, Ming Yao Yao.
Even in Fengyu Tower, her talent would place her among the core disciples.
Currently, the entire court is pressuring the royal family to offer a scapegoat.
After that incident in Xiamen City, she returned to the Qiu family to seclude herself.
After Lu Jia finished speaking, Ming Yao Yao's face showed some hesitation.
At the right moment, she should express her thoughts to him.
This is to match Ming Yao Yao with Su Chen.
Xu Junnian has always been so indecisive, and it annoys me just looking at him.
But reaching the Transformation Realm Perfection is already considered an unparalleled powerhouse in the Jin Kingdom.
However, he was entangled by Su Chen, and Su Chen also had the support of many Zhu Ming Palace elders.
"Hmph, you shouldn't think too highly of yourself."
Hearing Lu Jia mention Xu Junnian, Ming Yao Yao playfully scolded her.
"My dear senior sister, please tell us."
"It's Elder Su Heng. We all saw it, and the Palace Master intends to bring you two together."
In fact, Su Chen had no such thoughts about Ming Yao Yao.
Let's drag it out for now. Even if they agree to get to know each other, it doesn't mean they'll end up together.
By the end of the month, it will be time to depart.
The sky was already darkening, but someone was still waiting in her courtyard.
This move by the Great Zhou royal family directly halved their influence.
However, he was a bit lacking compared to Ming Yao Yao.
The key is that he hasn't gained much benefit from it.
Although Lu Jia didn't finish her sentence, the other two understood her meaning.
"Elder Su Heng is indeed quite handsome, and compared to other alchemists, he's much more good-looking."
Seeing her grandfather wanted to say something more, Ming Yao Yao quickly interrupted.
The three of them spoke in their secret girl talk, discussing the thoughts in their hearts.
After listening, Su Chen didn't feel he gained much.
In the past, at Fengyu Tower, most of their time was spent on cultivation.
This is to make Ming Yao Yao compromise.
Let's see how it goes."
Seeing her expression, there was still a hint of a mischievous smile on her face.
"What are you talking about, Lu Xiaomei? What agreement or not?"
This isn't looking down on him, but rather, he's not good enough.
Those praises during the day were just polite compliments.
The three close friends spent the night together.
After leaving her grandfather's courtyard, Ming Yao Yao returned to her own.
They have already arrived at Tiangang City, bringing complete stability to the city.
But Ming Yao Yao truly didn't have any interest in him.
They never considered Ming Yao Yao as a rival.
They dare not even think of the Unification Stage.
Hearing Ming Yao Yao's tone, Lu Jia felt she wasn't wrong.
In her mind, Ming Yao Yao seemed to have already envisioned Su Chen pestering her in her mind.
Curious about this, Lu Jia and her junior sister were, of course, in no hurry to wait.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jia and her other junior sister let out a light scoff.
Lu Jia held Ming Yao Yao's hand, her face showing a hint of urgency.
That man, on the other hand, lacked some responsibility.
Regarding the intricacies of alchemy, I truly had no interest.
"How was it? How was it? Did you agree?"
During the banquet, Lu Jia also understood the intentions of the various elders and the Palace Master.
The elders Wang Shanlin and Qin Wei of the Tahe Sect.
Speaking of which, Lu Jia was still willing to communicate more with Su Chen.
Between Ming Yao Yao and Xu Junnian, it wasn't just Lu Jia who felt something was amiss.
Even if Xu Junnian came to question, he couldn't find fault with Senior Sister Yao.
Lu Jia wore a different expression, making herself appear slightly aggrieved look.
Later, as he stayed at home, and I wandered and adventured, it was even less appropriate.
At the very least, if we encounter something, we'll help Senior Sister Yao clarify.
"Grandpa won't force me, and if I'm unwilling, this matter definitely won't happen.
"What are you saying, Junior Sister Lu?"
This time, returning home, she relaxed a lot and could chat about many other things.
In Elder Shangxuan's letter, Su Chen spoke of Tiangang City's recent situation.
Unable to refuse them, Ming Yao Yao's face showed a hint of hesitation, but she still explained.
As for Elder Su, his appearance was..."
I think we should go and confront him.
"Senior Sister Yao, I think this is indeed feasible.
"I know what you want to say, Grandpa. Let's just see, let's see."
Su Chen had to deal with those who were not his peers.
At the same time, he also briefly mentioned the methods of various sects and their standard techniques.
But if he took it seriously, what would he do?"
Ming Yao Yao was truly concerned about this.
Having said so much, it was basically like showing her hand.
"Grandpa just told me that Elder Su Heng might not look favorably upon me.
It was Su Heng who knew he wasn't worthy of Senior Sister Yao, so he chose others."
Not just appearance and status, but even her proud martial talent, Su Chen didn't care about.
Without any news, they might not sleep this night.
If pestered by Su Chen, how would she handle it? This was originally to verify Xu Junnian's feelings for her.
If this situation truly arises, I wonder what kind of fairy he would find."
On the other hand, the Great Zhou side was already in some turmoil.
If he took it seriously, Senior Sister Yao, what would you do?"
Let this scapegoat bear the wrath of Tiangang City.
She felt that she and Su Chen were quite compatible.
There was still some time until the Xanying Conference, but they needed to leave some time for the journey.
Seeing Ming Yao Yao, the two of them pulled her into the small courtyard.
But they weren't sure if it would be appropriate.
At Fengyu Tower, he didn't respond to me many times."
You approach him like this, but you don't take it seriously.
With a smile, Ming Yao Yao shared these words with her two close friends.
Beside her, the other junior sister also offered advice.
As for their proficiency in pill cultivation, the three of them were perhaps too young.
Opening another letter, they saw it was from Qiu Ruofang.
"I think Senior Sister Yao, your judgment is correct, and we should see.
The error-free version is on Book 69. Read it! 6=9 Book Bar.
If it's not compatible, we'll talk later."
They chatted a lot, with many topics.
If it's finally verified, Xu Junnian's intentions towards her are true.
It's best if his martial talent is stronger than mine, and his appearance is more handsome, making me feel inferior—that's the best~"
Ming Yao Yao stepped slightly closer, who could gossip about this?
For Elder Su to reach this position, it wasn't just his exceptional pill cultivation skills.
Regarding her grandfather's words, Ming Yao Yao wasn't annoyed at all.
Hearing Lu Jia's suggestion, Ming Yao Yao also nodded.
"He doesn't look favorably upon Senior Sister Yao?"
As the person involved, Ming Yao Yao also felt this was possible.
The letter wasn't opened, and Su Chen read its contents.
At Zhu Ming Palace, they could probably rest for ten more days.
Or, without being injured, to experience that kind of humiliating pill pursuit.
Even more so, it wasn't just the wrath of Tiangang City, but also the distrust of various other sects.
Ming Yao Yao's thoughts were laid out so clearly.
She didn't feel it was completely wrong.
The clear laughter gave a unique impression.
What Ming Yao Yao had just said, Xu Junnian's exceptional martial talent, all these were compatible.
In the Sacred Jade Tournament, one cannot achieve good results if they require guidance in these matters.
Coincidentally, I took the opportunity to send a letter to Su Chen.
Currently, her seclusion has proven fruitful.
"Grandpa, the one I admire in my heart is still a cultivator with exceptional talent in the Martial Way."
Elder Two glared at her, no longer arguing with her granddaughter.
Senior Sister Yaoyao should make him feel some pressure, otherwise, he might think that you are the only one for him."
But deep down, Elder Two was quite proud of her granddaughter.
The other Senior Sister beside her was the same, constantly asking for advice.
For Su Chen, the only thing they could affirm was that her appearance was not bad.
If Elder Two had a stronger attitude, Senior Sister Yaoyao..."
Her grandfather would definitely support Su Chen.
Growing up in a medicine pill clan, she couldn't fully grasp the importance of medicine pills.
The Alchemy branch held a respectable position in the Jin Kingdom, and even received high regard.
It was difficult to truly appreciate the value of medicine pills.
Their casual chat continued until the end of the night, only then did they start to rest a little.
Opening the envelope, inside was a letter from Shangxuan True Person addressed to her, and another unopened letter.
Young people have always been more concerned about matters of love.
When Lu Jia mentioned this, both Ming Yao Yao and the other Senior Sister were left speechless.
Additionally, the Zhu Ming Palace was also an Alchemy clan.
During these days, the steward overseeing the Martial Way in Zhu Ming Palace explained to everyone the precautions for the Sacred Jade Tournament.
At the same time, she also thought of the words her grandfather had said before.
As Lu Jia spoke, she seemed to have thought of a problem.
As the granddaughter of Elder Two and a junior of Zhu Ming Palace, she naturally had her own courtyard.
As for Ming Yao Yao, she might have the chance to reach the Perfection of the Transcendent Realm.
"Actually, I also want to see what's on his mind, whether or not he truly values me."
"Senior Sister Yaoyao, your appearance is already beautiful, and in terms of Martial Way talent, you can be considered the best in Zhu Ming Palace without any issues."
After a long while, Ming Yao Yao finally spoke.
This letter was sent from Tiangang City to her.
"We really want to know, if you don't tell us, we might not be able to sleep these days."
It's easy for arguments to arise."
"I'm just speaking the truth."
Her face still carried a calm expression.
Xu Junnian Senior Brother, in front of you, has always been somewhat distant."
The focus was still on the matter between Ming Yao Yao and Su Heng.
"That's perfect, I also want to see what kind of peerlessly beautiful fairy he finds.
We haven't even asked Su Heng about his thoughts yet.
Hearing this, Lu Jia quickly nodded.
In their words, Su Chen was just a backdrop, a tool used to test the intentions of other men.
This made Ming Yao Yao feel a bit embarrassed.
Seeing that Ming Yao Yao seemed to have something on her mind.
"Tell him, Senior Sister, you admire Xu Junnian Senior Brother, a talented warrior like him."
But instead, she brought endless danger to herself and her family.
Elder Su Heng's identity was indeed suitable for testing Xu Junnian."
It was Lu Jia and another female disciple.
On the fourth day of receiving these pointers, Su Chen received a letter.
Although she verbally criticized her granddaughter, she implied that Su Chen might look down on her.
As for the others, at most, they could only reach the Initial Realm of the Transcendent Realm.
The letter was addressed to Su Chen and sent directly to Tiangang City.
"Alright, alright, you win, I'll tell you,"
The rest of the letter mainly advised Su Chen to be cautious and reassured her about the sect.
From this conflicted attitude, it was clear that Ming Yao Yao truly had some special feelings for Xu Junnian.
Lastly, Shangxuan True Person mentioned this letter.
"Senior Sister Yaoyao, you might need to hold back a little later.
The mentioned precautions were all too conventional.
"The person I have in mind should be a talented Martial Way genius.
If I were to settle for less, choosing a woman without any foundation of strength, it would just be an empty shell."
A conflict arose between the court and the royal family.
Instead of immersing herself in the alchemy room as a pill master.
Qiu Ruofang, with her strength, had entered the Third Stage Unification Realm.
However, her realm was still somewhat unstable, and she was doing her best to solidify her strength.
Writing a letter to Su Chen, she invited him to her courtyard.
She had prepared many cultivation resources for Su Chen, helping him break through from the Sixth Stage to the Fifth Stage Snow Essence Realm.
If the promotion to the Fifth Stage was still far away, the prepared resources could also assist Su Chen in further improving.
