The moment they saw the man, the expressions of the three people who were originally waiting for Chen Yu Bing's group on the platform immediately changed. There was surprise on their faces. It was clear that they did not expect this troublesome person to come to the fourth summit.
"Uncle … uncle master Hu …" The three of them smiled wryly and quickly wrapped their fists in their palms to bow towards the man.
The hierarchy in Freezing Sky Clan was strict. If they did not greet their elders, they would be punished. The three of them might be resigned, but they still had to greet him.
Chen Yu Bing had a strange expression on his face. He instinctively looked at Su Ming, who was standing not too far away, then wrapped his fist in his palm to greet the man. Xu Ru Yue, who was by his side, did the same.
The man seemed to be rather impatient. Once he swept his gaze across the crowd, his eyes fell on Han Fei Zi.
"Hey, Berserker Girl, are you Su Ming?" As he spoke, he picked up the gourd and drank a big mouthful from it. He wiped the corners of his mouth and shouted with a drunken look.
Han Fei Zi's face darkened. She cast the man a cold glance but did not speak.
"Ah, who's Su Ming here? Don't make me mad!" The man let out a furious roar, causing the snow around him to tremble.
"I'm here. Who are you?" Su Ming's face was calm. He turned around at the edge of the platform and looked at the man.
The man scratched his head and sized up Su Ming before he shouted in displeasure, "Move aside. I'm looking for Su Ming, not me. You're Su Ming, but you're not the person I'm looking for."
The moment he said those words, the people on the platform immediately stifled their laughter. If it were not for the man's power, they would have laughed out loud a long time ago.
Su Ming was also momentarily stunned. He rarely met such a stupid person. He smiled wryly and nodded his head before speaking once again, "I am Su Ming."
"Nonsense. Didn't you say you're Su Ming? Why did you say you're Su Ming the moment I heard I'm looking for him? I'm telling you, your Grandpa Hu is smart. Don't even think about lying to me!
I hate it when people lie to me! " The man glared at Su Ming and strode towards him with a fierce look on his face. His imposing presence, coupled with his majestic body, created an intimidating presence that came crashing down on Su Ming.
Under that presence, all the people on the platform started retreating. Even Han Cang Zi, who was beside Su Ming, instinctively took a few steps back. She was oppressed by the man's presence.
"Your Grandpa Hu hates people who lie to me the most. Tian Xie, that old thing, lied to me a few times, but later on, he swore that he would never lie to me again. This time, he told me to look for Su Ming. If you don't have him here, then he's lying to me again." Anger appeared on the man's face. He walked towards Su Ming and glared at him.
"Tell me, who is Su Ming here?!"
Su Ming frowned. He was originally wondering why the man before him was able to call out his name, but when he saw the strange look on Chen Yu Bing's face, he already had an answer in his heart.
When he heard the man mention Tian Xie Zi's name, he did not say anything else and brought out the wine pot Tian Xie Zi had given him from his bosom.
The moment Su Ming brought out the wine pot, the man immediately stared at it. After looking at it for a few moments, he let out a long sigh. His gaze when he looked at Su Ming was no longer fierce, but filled with pity.
"So you're Su Ming. Why didn't you tell me earlier? You made me ask you so many times. Come, I'll take you to the old thing's cave abode." As the man spoke, he sighed once again and left the platform.
The bad feeling in Su Ming's heart grew stronger. After a moment of hesitation, he wrapped his fist in his palm towards Han Cang Zi, Han Fei Zi, Chen Yu, Xu Ting, and the others.
"I'll be taking my leave first. If there's a chance, I'll meet up with all of you again."
"Brother Su … Congratulations, congratulations …" Chen Yu Bing quickly wrapped his fist in his palm and spoke with a strange look on his face.
"Once I've settled down, I'll come and find you." Han Fei Zi's voice was still cold as she looked at Su Ming.
"I'm at the third summit. Brother Su, if you're free, you can come and visit me. Try the tea I brewed myself." Han Cang Zi smiled gently.
"Su Ming, why aren't you leaving yet? How long did you make me wait?!" Before Su Ming could reply, the man's displeased roar traveled forth from midair.
Su Ming frowned. Once he nodded at the crowd, he stood up and stepped into the air. He was dressed in green robes and his long hair moved with the wind, giving him an air of elegance.
When the man saw Su Ming following him, he charged forward at full speed. Su Ming saw a world covered in snow. He sucked in a deep breath. The cold in this place reminded him of the winter in Dark Mountain. In silence, he followed the man in front of him, and the two of them turned into two long arcs that flew out of the fourth summit.
No one stopped them along the way. Even if someone saw them, the moment they saw the man, they would frown and avoid him.
"It's rare for the old man to go out, and he brought a junior brother with him. Why is your Grandpa Hu so unlucky? I'm drinking and he has to come and fetch you.
"No, it's not your Grandpa Hu who's unlucky. You're the unlucky one. You're really unlucky. You're too unlucky …" The man would occasionally turn his head back to look at Su Ming as he moved forward and mumbled.
However, his mumbles sounded like growls to Su Ming. His voice was deafening even when he heard it at such a close distance.
"Enough!" Su Ming's face turned cold and he said coldly.
"Hmm? How dare you stop your Grandpa Hu from talking to himself? "The man immediately glared at Su Ming and roared.
Su Ming felt a slight headache coming on, especially when he saw that the man seemed to have been wronged as he roared. When he remembered that the man had come to fetch him, and based on his words, he seemed to be Tian Xie Zi's disciple, Su Ming sighed.
'Tian Xie Zi told me that I'm his only disciple …' The bad feeling in Su Ming's heart grew stronger.
"Alright, how should I address you?" Su Ming asked with a wry smile.
"Hmph." The man seemed to still be angry. He turned around and ignored Su Ming, continuing to fly forward.
After a while, when the two of them passed through several mountains, the man saw that Su Ming was no longer speaking and could not help but speak.
"I'm warning you, don't talk to me anymore. Don't ask for my name. Even if you ask, your Grandpa Hu won't tell you. I'm angry!"
"Alright, how should I address you?" Su Ming nodded.
"Hmph, everyone calls me Grandpa Hu, but since we're brothers under the same master, I'll allow you to call me Grandpa Hu Zi," the man quickly said. He had long since forgotten what he said just now. There was a smug look on his face, as if he was very satisfied with his own name.
"Yes, Hu Zi, when did Tian Xie Zi's Master come back?" Su Ming's expression remained the same as he nodded and asked.
"You didn't see him? The old man just came back. Hmph, I was drinking when he picked me up and asked me to fetch you. "When the man said that, anger appeared on his face.
"Oh? I really didn't see him. "A barely noticeable glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes.
"The old man is a great man. Do you know what a great man is? A great man has to act like a great man. He's the best at making things seem mysterious." The man seemed to have remembered something and took a big swig from his pot of wine. There was a gloomy look on his face.
Su Ming clenched his right fist. A cold glint appeared in his eyes, but his expression remained the same as he nodded.
"He once told me that I'm his only disciple …"
Before Su Ming finished speaking, the man's face immediately turned angry. He turned around and roared at Su Ming.
"He also told me the same thing in the past! But when I was brought back by him, I realized that there was a senior brother above me, and there was another senior brother above my senior brother … "
A smile appeared on Su Ming's face, but that smile was a little forced, and there was even coldness in it.
"He also told me …"
This time, before Su Ming even finished speaking, the man immediately spoke up.
"I know. He must have told you that he has a lot of Berserker Vessels and you can choose as you please."
Su Ming clenched his right fist even tighter.
"He might have even told you that he has all the skills and divine abilities in Freezing Sky Clan. If you acknowledge him as your Master, you can learn and understand them."
The smile on Su Ming's face turned even colder.
"He must have even told you that if you acknowledge him as your Master, then you'll know in the future that Freezing Sky Clan is nothing. Damn it, that old man told me all these in the past. They're exactly the same. Junior brother, you're unlucky. You're really unlucky. You're too unlucky …
"Let me tell you, you're not the only one like this. My senior brother above me also told me the same thing in the past. He went through the same thing as us, and my senior brother's senior brother also went through the same thing …"
As the man spoke as if they were in the same boat, Su Ming and he gradually passed through the towering main summits and arrived at the ninth summit of the Great Frozen Plains of Freezing Sky Clan.
The nine main summits and the numerous secondary summits formed the Great Frozen Plains of Freezing Sky Clan. It corresponded with Heaven Gate and had a majestic presence.
The nine main summits were an incredibly important part of Freezing Sky Clan. Each of them was gigantic. At first glance, they looked like ice mountains that exuded an ancient presence.
At that moment, what appeared before Su Ming was the ninth summit.
"We're here. This is it." The man pointed at the ninth summit beside Su Ming and sighed.
Su Ming was momentarily stunned. He had already been disappointed by Tian Xie Zi's words on the way here, but when he saw the ninth summit, he could not help but be surprised.
"How many people … live here?" Su Ming hesitated for a moment before he looked at the man.
"Not many. Including the old man and you, there are only five people. This is the only thing the old man didn't lie to us about. He does indeed live in Freezing Sky Clan, and he does indeed have a mountain that belongs to him. It's the ninth summit. "
Su Ming took a deep breath. Finally, he found some comfort in his heart from being lied to.
"Our eldest senior brother is always in isolation. He only comes out during the Day of Eternal Creation. Every single time he comes out, he makes a huge ruckus. Even if you drink the most, you'll still be woken up by him. You'll be tormented to death if you listen to his cries of" I'm finally out. "
"You can treat him as a turtle. He usually sleeps, and when he wakes up, he'll yawn and go back to sleep," the man mumbled.
Su Ming listened and found himself speechless for a long time. "To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
