The so-called important position, the so-called assessment, were all wishful thinking?
He had a brief moment of doubt as to why there was no news from the sect for a long time. However, he instinctively guessed that something had happened to his Uncle-Master, or something had happened to the sect.
Deceiving himself and others, he stayed in that desolate, barren land for countless years.
In the end, the moment the truth was revealed, it was so cruel.
His faith collapsed with a loud bang.
He stood there blankly, not knowing what to say or do. He was in a daze like a puppet.
"Since you've worked hard even if you don't have any meritorious service, you can return to the Supreme Ultimate Sect. However, the number of disciples I can recruit is already full. You can only be a servant of the mansion. What do you think?" Ying Fengxiao pondered for a while and said helplessly.
His tone sounded like he was giving alms.
However, the title of Taiji Sect disciple originally belonged to Huangfu Lieyang. Now, only the servants were left.
This wasn't even as good as charity, it was clearly robbery!
Huangfu Lieyang came back to his senses, feeling humiliated and resentful. He wanted to refute, but he realized that Su Yu was beside him, so he fell silent.
After remaining silent for a long time, he shook his head and said, "Disciple … I've been away from the Taiji Sect for too long. I can no longer be considered a disciple of the Taiji Sect. If Elder Ying is interested, could you recommend this friend of mine to an elder? He hasn't even cultivated for a hundred years, but he's already a double …"
Suddenly, Su Yu patted his shoulder and interrupted him. "Brother Huangfu, you are confused. I came to the Tai Chi Faction on a mission, not to join the Tai Chi Faction."
Huangfu Lieyang was stunned. He immediately realized that Su Yu had changed his mind at the last minute, so he shut his mouth.
Ying Fengxiao looked at Su Yu. He swept his gaze over Su Yu, who was a Later Stage Single Crown Divine Warrior, and his eyes lit up.
If he really had cultivated for less than a hundred years and had such a terrifying cultivation, then his cultivation speed could be said to be shocking, and his aptitude was not bad.
However, the other party had no intention of joining the Tai Chi Sect. Would he, a dignified Yin Yang Elder, take the initiative to beg him?
"Then go to the butler and get some divine stones." Smiling in the wind waved his hand and sent Huangfu Lieyang away.
He took in Huangfu Lieyang out of goodwill, but the other party did not appreciate it!
Huangfu Lieyang no longer held any hope for Windward Smile. He said indifferently, "There's no need for the divine stones. I must have misunderstood something all these years. Farewell."
He stood up weakly and left the mansion with Su Yu.
Along the way, he felt that his head was heavy and his feet were light. He was completely following Su Yu and had lost the ability to think.
"Brother Huangfu, how much longer are you going to immerse yourself in it? Or do you want to recover like a woman who needs someone to comfort her?"
Su Yu's mocking voice suddenly rang in Huangfu Lieyang's ears, waking him up with a start.
He discovered that he had already left the mansion and was surrounded by a vast crowd.
"Sorry, I lost my composure." Huangfu Lieyang became more spirited and said, "I've let you see a joke. I haven't fulfilled my promise, so I can't let you enter the Taiji Sect."
Back then, he had confidently handed his identity nameplate to Su Yu so that Su Yu could come to the Tai Chi Faction to look for his uncle. Then, he would surely be able to join the Tai Chi Faction.
Now that he thought about it, it was fortunate that Su Yu had not come. Otherwise, he would not even have been able to enter his uncle's mansion.
"Actually, you only showed the late stage of the Single Crown Warrior Realm, and he was a bit moved. If he knew that your real cultivation base was the late stage of the Double Crown Warrior Realm, I'm afraid he would treat you like that disciple named Yang Hua and train you. Unfortunately, you interrupted me and didn't let me continue." Huangfu Lieyang was a bit regretful.
Su Yu calmly said, "If he really wants to, then it will be troublesome."
"Why?" Huangfu Lieyang asked in surprise.
Su Yu said, "With your example, what makes this person worthy of being my teacher? If one day, an even more powerful Heaven Ruler appears, will I also be removed from the list and banished to a faraway place? "
Huangfu Lieyang was relieved. With Su Yu's character, it was indeed difficult for him to lower his head and acknowledge Yingfengxiao as his teacher.
"Moreover, why must the men of the world be below others? Since we're in the Five Stars City, let's explore the world by ourselves. Why should we worry about not having the resources of the Martial Emperors? "Su Yu did not have a strong desire to join the Tai Chi Faction.
It would be great if he could join, but if he couldn't, he was confident that he would be able to establish himself here.
Huangfu Lieyang stared at Su Yu, feeling encouraged.
He was a man who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, but his ambition was not as good as that of a young boy like Su Yu.
Indeed, the world was vast and mighty. Did he really have to join the Tai Chi Faction to achieve anything?
When he had traveled to the Sea of Constellations, he had only been a small Single Crown Warrior. He had survived such a harsh environment and become a Double Crown Warrior.
Now that he had returned to the favorable environment of the Five Stars City, why should he worry about not being able to achieve great things?
Thinking of this, his depressed mood eased a lot, and he forced a smile, "Yes, in this world, why should we draw a prison for ourselves? Without Yingfengxiao, would Huangfu Lieyang have been mediocre all his life? "
Huangfu Lieyang patted Su Yu's shoulder. "That's why I've decided to follow you."
Su Yu rolled his eyes. What happened to his courage just now?
Looking at the vast crowd, Su Yu thought carefully. "Then let's find a place to discuss this. Let's see how we can find the resources of the Martial Emperors in the future."
Huangfu Lieyang said, "There's a winery called Yunxiang House nearby. It produces all kinds of famous wines. Why don't we go in and have a seat?"
"Sure."
Yunxiang House's business was booming. Countless strong men came and went, including the Martial Emperors of the world.
Martial Emperors, who were rare in the Four Stars City, could be found everywhere in the Five Stars City.
They were all here for the famous wine of Fragrant Cloud House.
Su Yu and Huangfu Lieyang finally found an empty table on the third floor.
"I didn't expect Yunxiang House to still exist after so many years. Moreover, business is booming as usual." Huangfu Lieyang said with nostalgia. He picked up the wine list and said, "I know Brother Su has a lot of experience in your life, and there are many things that you don't care about. However, Fragrant Cloud House has a special wine that you have never tasted before."
At the level of the Martial Emperors of Heaven and Earth, they rarely consumed food. The desolate energy in their bodies was enough to satisfy all their needs.
Huangfu Lieyang said it so mysteriously. Su Yu really wanted to try it. "What's so special about it?"
"Of course!" Huangfu Lieyang said. "This wine is called Pure Yang. It is a divine wine brewed by Yunxiang House using the sun, moon, and stars in the void. It is also one of the few wines that can replenish one's desolate energy after drinking it."
"For Brother Su, whose cultivation level has fallen, the effects of this wine can be imagined. If you consume it for a long period of time, your cultivation level will definitely recover in less than three years."
Su Yu was surprised. Three years?
"But this wine is too expensive. I don't have much money, so I can only treat Brother Su to a drop." Huangfu Lieyang looked embarrassed.
A drop of wine? Isn't this too stingy?
As if he understood Su Yu's meaning, Huangfu Lieyang's face turned red. "Brother Su, don't doubt me. This wine is measured in drops. A drop of wine costs thirty million divine stones."
Thirty million? Su Yu could not help but click his tongue.
Many Double Crown Divine Warriors only had ten million divine stones in their lifetime savings. Even Triple Crown Divine Warriors, such as the Baiyue Sect Master, only had a hundred million divine stones.
However, Su Yu had killed countless enemies on the Dark Star. The number of divine stones he had seized was astronomical, at least ten billion.
Especially the storage space of the Sword Alliance Master, which contained the savings of the entire Dark Star Alliance Chamber of Commerce over the years.
He could still afford a few drops of wine.
"Two drops of Pure Yang." Huangfu Lieyang reluctantly ordered the wine.
The maidservant smiled sweetly. She looked at Huangfu Lieyang with a burning gaze. "Alright, sir. I will place the order for you."
To be able to afford such wine, he must be a disciple of the Tai Chi Faction.
Holding the menu, the maidservant quickly went to the counter to request for two drops of Pure Yang Wine.
Standing at the counter was a Triple Crown Divine Warrior. He was the nephew of the Yunxiang House Master. He was under thirty years old and looked serious.
"Mm." The shopkeeper took out a sealed space storage device. It was sealed with the special seal of the Four Crown Divine Warrior. He had to personally remove the seal to retrieve the two drops of Pure Yang Divine Wine.
"Two customers, sixty million divine stones," the shopkeeper said calmly.
He looked at the two of them. From their clothes and the Yin and Yang energies in their bodies, they were not disciples of the Tai Chi Faction. Hence, there was no need to be too polite.
Su Yu shook his head slightly. This person's attitude was not bad, but it was not polite.
However, this was not important.
Huangfu Lieyang did not say anything. He took out two bags, each filled with thirty million divine stones.
The shopkeeper checked them and confirmed that there were no mistakes. He removed the seal on the storage device and took the bags.
"Haha, Brother Su, have a taste of this wine." Huangfu Lieyang opened the storage device and took out a precious crystal pot.
There were two drops of black and white liquid lying quietly inside. They were the so-called Pure Yang.
Su Yu could feel that the crystal pot was filled with primordial energy. He could not help but take a closer look. Gathering the sun, moon, and stars to brew sounded incredible.
At that moment.
Two more people walked into the Yunxiang House. They were dressed in the uniform of the Tai Chi Faction and looked dignified.
They were immediately noticed as soon as they entered, and they all looked at them with envy.
Compared to the entire Five-Star Empire, the disciples of the Tai Chi Faction were rare existences. Their status was extraordinary.
The usually serious shopkeeper could not help but be moved. He smiled warmly and went forward to welcome them. "What brings Mr. Yang Hua and Fairy Yinyu here?"
The former was the famous disciple of the famous Elder Yingfengxiao. He had recently broken through to the later stage of the Three-Crown Divine Warrior and was quite famous.
The latter was the rising star of the Tai Chi Faction. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also talented in cultivation. She had reached the later stage of the Two-Crown Divine Warrior. She had many suitors, and Yang Hua was one of them.
"Give me two drops of Pure Yang. Let Yinyu have a taste," Yang Hua said with a smile.
The shopkeeper's face stiffened. He said apologetically, "Mr. Yang Hua, we only provide two drops of Pure Yang every day. They have been sold out today. Do you …"
Yang Hua still had a smile on her face, but her gaze toward the shopkeeper was much colder.
The shopkeeper shuddered.
The Yunxiang House had been stable for many years. They did not fear Yang Hua, who was a Three-Crown Divine Warrior.
But ninety-nine percent of Yunxiang House's Pure Yang was bought by the disciples of the Tai Chi Faction. If Yang Hua said a few words about the Yunxiang House, it would affect the sales of Pure Yang.
"I'll think of a way." The shopkeeper's mind was racing. He glanced at Su Yu's table.
Realizing that their Pure Yang had not been opened, he immediately walked over and grabbed the crystal pot. He said expressionlessly, "Someone else wants Pure Yang. Come back another day."
Compared to the disciples of the Tai Chi Faction, the consequences of offending them were much lighter.
Moreover, they might not dare to seek revenge on the Yunxiang House.
Huangfu Lieyang could not help but be angry. They had paid and were about to drink, but the shopkeeper had snatched it from their hands.
That was fine, but he still had a cold expression, as if they had done something wrong.
"Wait!" How could Huangfu Lieyang swallow his anger?
The shopkeeper's gaze turned cold. "What do you want?"
Huangfu Lieyang was about to explode in anger, but Su Yu pressed on his shoulder. "Don't be impatient."
It was their first time here. It was better not to offend anyone.
Huangfu Lieyang clenched his teeth and remained silent.
"Humph!" The shopkeeper snorted coldly, turning to leave.
"You can take the wine back, but return our money as well," Su Yu said calmly.
The shopkeeper turned his head and looked at Su Yu. He then said coldly, "I have already said that you can come back tomorrow to drink. I have already taken the money, so there is no reason for me to return it."
So, was it reasonable to take back their wine?
That was sixty million. It was not a small sum to anyone.
"Don't go too far with the Yunxiang House!" Huangfu Lieyang slammed the table and stood up, startling the entire restaurant.
The shopkeeper's expression turned cold. He lowered his voice and threatened, "Try shouting again. I won't let you walk out of the Yunxiang House!"
The aura of the three-crown Divine Warrior was released, enveloping Su Yu and Huangfu Lieyang.
Su Yu was fine, but Huangfu Lieyang's body swayed under the pressure of the aura. He sat down again.
"Don't act rashly." Su Yu pulled him back to his seat. "My friend was rude. Goodbye."
Holding Huangfu Lieyang's hand, Su Yu left the table calmly.
"What the hell?" The shopkeeper snorted, then raised his voice and said, "These two guests are just messing around. We don't have to lower ourselves to their level."
Only then did the customers look away.
Huangfu Lieyang felt like he was about to explode. It was the Yunxiang House who had humiliated them. They had lost sixty million divine stones, and now they were the ones messing around?
However, what was more infuriating was that when he passed by Yang Hua, he ignored him and said to Fairy Yinyu behind him, "The wine is here. Let's have a taste."
Fairy Yinyu saw with her own eyes where the two drops of wine came from. She shook her head lightly. "Forget it. It's just drinking wine. Why do you have to bully ordinary people?"
"Haha, how is this bullying? Pure Yang is not something that can be drunk with money. Only people of status like you and me deserve to drink it. Giving it to an unknown person is just a waste of God's gift. "
Huangfu Lieyang stopped in his tracks. He understood what Yang Hua was implying.
Was he implying that his background was unknown?
Others might not know, but Yang Hua himself knew where he got the quota to become Ying Fengxiao's disciple.
This was too much!
However, Su Yu did not say a word. He pulled him away and did not give him a chance to vent his anger.
Su Yu only let go of him when they were far away from the Yunxiang House.
"Brother Su, let's part ways here. You will only be humiliated if you follow me." Huangfu Lieyang seemed to have given up on himself.
He had been encouraged by Su Yu and had planned to go all out. However, the bullying from the Yunxiang House had made him feel that he was just a useless nobody. Achieving anything? Dream on!
"So, we are going to return our humiliation now," Su Yu said calmly. "If you don't want to go, forget it."
Huangfu Lieyang was moved. "Brother Su, are you going to take revenge?"
