Sensing the hint of impatience in Xu You's tone, Shen Meng Qi replied indifferently, "He's just a childhood playmate and an old friend. He doesn't have a spirit root and can't cultivate. He's different from us. There's no need to bother about him."
"So, he's just a mortal. I was wondering who he was."
Xu You raised his brows and said coldly, "This Su Zimo clearly knows that you've joined Iridescent Clouds Palace and become a cultivator. Yet, he still dares to bully your brother?"
Shen Meng Qi shook her head. "Forget it, it's all in the past. Furthermore, he might not be blamed for this. "
Although Shen Nan seemed to be innocent in his narration and Su Zimo was the one who had been bullying him, Shen Meng Qi knew her brother's character very well.
Furthermore, when she saw Shen Nan's evasive gaze, she knew that there was more to this.
"How can this do?!"
Xu You said in a low voice, "This Su Zimo doesn't know his place and dares to be so impudent as a mortal. Since we've met, we have to teach him an unforgettable lesson!"
Initially, Xu You did not intend to interfere in this matter. However, he could vaguely sense that Shen Meng Qi seemed to be protecting Su Zimo.
The more that was the case, the more Xu You wanted to interfere and meet this person!
Xu You looked at Shen Nan and asked coldly, "Young Master Shen, where is this person now?"
Initially, Shen Nan did not intend to do anything. However, when he heard Xu You's words, his mind could not help but become active and he gradually became more confident.
Shen Nan stammered, "H-he left Ping Yang Town two years ago and we don't know where he went."
Xu You frowned.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was vast and there were dozens of vassal states of various sizes. Trying to find a person was no different from finding a needle in a haystack.
Shen Nan coughed gently and continued, "However, this person has an elder brother named Su Hong. He's the current King of Yan and has a high status. We can't afford to offend him …"
"Humph!"
Xu You sneered. "The king of mortals is merely a mortal after all! He's only on par with the Qi Refinement Warriors of the small sects. When he sees the Foundation Establishment Cultivators of Iridescent Clouds Palace, even if he's the King of Yan, he'll have to kneel before me! "
Shen Nan's blood boiled and his eyes lit up.
Shen Nan seemed to see the high and mighty Prince Yan kneeling by his feet obediently, not daring to raise his head. What kind of scene was that?
Xu You said proudly, "That's great. Junior Sister, since this Su Zimo bullied your brother, let's go to the capital of Yan Country and teach his brother a lesson! Haha, this is called an eye for an eye! "
Chen Meng Qi frowned and hesitated.
"Junior Sister, even if it's not for this matter, we still have to make a trip to the Yan Kingdom."
Xu You said, "Junior Brother Zhou has been missing for two years without any news. Master asked us to investigate. The place with the most Cultivators in the Yan Kingdom and the place with the most information is the capital of the Yan Kingdom."
"Okay."
Chen Meng Qi nodded.
Xu You took out a spirit boat from his storage bag and injected spirit qi into it. It expanded against the wind and floated in midair.
Xu You smiled and said, "Young Master Shen, you should come up too. The day you meet King Yan will be the day you can hold your head high!"
Shen Nan nodded hurriedly, trembling in excitement and unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes.
More than ten Iridescent Clouds Palace cultivators boarded the spirit boat one after another. Under Xu You's control, it rose into the air rapidly, turning into a stream of light that sped in the direction of the capital of Yan Country.
…
After a few days of traveling at full speed, Su Zimo and Demoness Ji finally arrived at the capital of Yan Country.
Two years ago, Su Zimo was here.
In the main hall, in front of everyone, he beheaded the King of Yan, Zhao Qian, with a single slash and tied it to his waist. Thereafter, he fought his way out of the encirclement in a heroic manner.
That scene seemed to have happened yesterday.
After a slight pause, Su Zimo rode on his sword and sped towards the palace. Before long, he arrived above the palace.
"Who's there?!"
A holler sounded from below.
Right after, two Qi Refinement Warriors summoned their flying swords and soared into the air, arriving opposite Su Zimo and Demoness Ji.
Both of them were Qi Refinement Warriors – one was at Level 6 Qi Condensation while the other was at Level 7.
Using their Spirit Peering Art, the two of them scanned Su Zimo and Demoness Ji. They could not help but shudder and their expressions changed.
Right now, Su Zimo's cultivation realm was at the peak of early-stage Foundation Establishment and was much higher than the two of them.
Demoness Ji stood there with a veil over her face – the two of them could not detect her at all!
"Greetings, seniors."
The two Qi Refinement Warriors reacted quickly and bowed hurriedly.
One of the Qi Refinement Warriors asked cautiously, "I wonder what the two seniors have come to the palace for?"
"Bring me to see the King of Yan."
Su Zimo had a friendly expression as he said with a smile.
"This …"
The two of them exchanged glances and did not agree immediately.
After all, they did not know the identity of the green-robed cultivator before them – how would they dare to bring him in rashly?
However, the man and woman before them had deep cultivation realms and they would not be able to stop them if they wanted to barge in.
Right then, a sword beam sped over from not far away.
When the person came closer and caught sight of Su Zimo, his eyes lit up and he said happily, "Second Young Master Su?"
"Mr. Song, it's been two years. How have you been?" Su Zimo smiled and nodded.
The person who came later was none other than Song Qi, the Qi Refinement Warrior that Su Zimo hired to protect the Su family two years ago.
Two years ago, Song Qi had just broken through to become a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior. Right now, he was at Level 9 Qi Refinement Warrior.
"Eh?"
Song Qi looked at the flying sword beneath Su Zimo's feet and his eyes widened in disbelief.
In his impression, Su Zimo did not have a spirit root and could not cultivate at all. How was he able to use Sword Kinesis Flight now?
Instinctively, Song Qi used his Spirit Peering Art to check on Su Zimo's cultivation realm.
This look gave Song Qi a fright, and he almost fell from the sky.
Early-stage Foundation Establishment!
In just two short years, a mortal without any foundation, not even a spirit root, had stepped into the Foundation Establishment realm!
Song Qi had not slacked off in the past two years and yet, he had only advanced by a small cultivation realm.
In reality, Song Qi did not know that Su Zimo had been trapped in Thunderclap Valley for half a year and his cultivation had not improved at all.
Furthermore, half of Su Zimo's spirit qi was spent on tempering his body.
How big was the difference between them?
Foundation Establishment Cultivators were considered top-notch cultivators in the entire Country of Yan.
This was the difference in spirit roots and had nothing to do with talent or cultivation resources.
"Second Young Master Su, you've changed a lot in the past two years."
Song Qi sighed emotionally and shook his head.
If he had not witnessed it for himself, he would not have imagined that the young man back in Ping Yang Town would have reached such a level today!
Demoness Ji blinked at the side and smirked, murmuring softly, "Second Young Master Su, hehe. Interesting."
"How has First Brother been recently?" Su Zimo asked.
"First Young Master is fine. However, he often misses the two of you and is worried that you guys will be in danger outside and get bullied."
Su Zimo felt a warmth in his heart.
Song Qi brought Su Zimo and Demoness Ji to the harem.
The harem of the King of Yan was cold and simple without any beautiful women. Along the way, they saw many old acquaintances of the Su family.
It was inevitable for them to exchange greetings when old friends met.
