"My name is Mie Zheng. Greetings, Cauldron Master." Mie Zheng was very nervous. He didn't know anything about this Cauldron Master.
Was the other party cruel and eccentric?
"How have you been, Mie Zheng?" A familiar voice floated into his ears.
Mie Zheng was startled. This voice?
He looked up and saw the Cauldron Venerable Cauldron slowly turn around. What he saw was an excessively young face.
"Su Ruchu!" Mie Zheng blurted out in surprise.
As soon as he said it, the former pirate leaders shouted angrily, "How dare you call our master by his name!"
Master?
Great waves surged in Mie Zheng's heart again!
The seven pirate leaders who had been wreaking havoc in the Seven Great Civilizations were calling Su Yu their master?
He had thought that the Cauldron Master was at most the ruler of the Pirate Alliance.
He didn't expect that he would enslave the Pirate Alliance!
Su Yu allowed the Snow Swordsman and the others to join the Cauldron, but he didn't recognize the seven pirate leaders.
None of them were good people, and such people didn't deserve to join the Cauldron. They could only be Su Yu's slaves.
Mie Zheng immediately changed his tone and said respectfully, "Greetings, Cauldron Master!"
"Get up," Su Yu said calmly.
Mie Zheng stood up and looked at the young Su Yu, his mind full of thoughts.
The current Su Yu was already on an equal footing with him!
No, Su Yu might even be on a higher level than him.
The seven pirate leaders aside, the pretty woman next to Su Yu gave him a feeling that she wasn't any weaker than Xie Xiaoyue.
Even the former, who was a family master, could only be used by Su Yu!
How powerful was such a person?
"Mie Zheng's Family Master, did you come here for the territory and resources of the greatest family?" Su Yu asked directly.
Mie Zheng struggled in his heart and gave up the idea of competing with Su Yu. He said, "I didn't expect the Cauldron Master to be here. Since you've already come here, I'll leave with my people!"
"Wait!" Su Yu called out to him.
"Cauldron Master, what can I do for you?" Mie Zheng asked nervously.
"I'll give you the territory and resources."
However, Su Yu didn't make things difficult for Mie Zheng. Instead, Su Yu said something that he didn't dare to believe.
"Cauldron Senior, please state it clearly." Mie Zheng became even more nervous, as he wondered … There's no such thing as a free lunch! Does Su Yu have another request?
As expected, Su Yu said, "In exchange, do me a favor!"
Mie Zheng's expression turned ugly as he said, "Cauldron Master, please speak."
Su Yu couldn't help but laugh. He said, "I want to open the Heavenly Well, but I'm still short of a Path Master. Are you willing to help me?"
Uh —
Mie Zheng had never imagined that it would be such a simple request!
"That's all?" Mie Zheng asked in disbelief.
Su Yu retorted, "If you want to impose more conditions on yourself, I won't oppose it."
Was it really that simple? Mie Zheng felt like he was dreaming!
"If you don't have any objections, then let's start now," Su Yu said.
Although Mie Zheng did not want to believe it, there was no harm in trying.
Mie Zheng's strength was equivalent to that of two Daolords, and he completely fulfilled the requirement of ten people!
The nine Daolords surrounded the Heavenly Well and channeled their Daolord powers into it at the same time.
Crash —
All of a sudden, the sound of huge waves emerged from the ancient well, and the purple light that soared into the sky became even more dazzling.
The faces of the nine Daolords changed instantly!
They could sense that their Daolord powers were flowing rapidly into the ancient well.
Mie Zheng's tone was slightly anxious as he said, "Cauldron Master, if you have any questions, ask them as soon as possible. We can't hold on for much longer!"
Su Yu nodded and took a deep breath. He stuck his head into the mouth of the ancient well and asked loudly, "Where is the Sinful Lady Palace?"
The Sinful Lady Palace is …
The Sinful Lady Palace …
Sinful …
The ancient well was full of echoes.
Just as Su Yu was wondering where the so-called answer came from, a weak voice came from the bottom of the well!
"It's … an eight-star civilization …"
The voice disappeared in a flash. Fortunately, Su Yu managed to remember it.
An eight-star civilization?
"Which eight-star civilization are you referring to?" Su Yu shouted loudly as he asked again.
Considering the vastness of the Great Beginning Realm, there shouldn't be only one eight-star civilization.
Mie Zheng slowly withdrew his Daolord powers and said, "Cauldron Master, you don't have to ask anymore. The Heavenly Well only answers one question every ten years. You've already used up your chances just now."
Su Yu waved his hands reluctantly, signaling the seven pirate leaders to stop.
It wouldn't help if they continued.
There were so many eight-star civilizations in the world. Which one was the Heavenly Well referring to?
Su Yu felt a deep sense of dejection. Was this the only answer he could get after working so hard?
He sighed deeply and regained his composure. Then, he waved his hands and said, "Let's go. Everyone, retreat!"
He had kept his promise and left everything to Mie Zheng.
Mie Zheng was overjoyed. He didn't expect Su Yu would really hand over the first peerless family to him!
Seeing that Su Yu was about to leave, Mie Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Cauldron Master, please wait!"
"What's the matter?" Su Yu asked absent-mindedly. He only got a vague answer about the specific location of the Sinful Lady Palace.
Mie Zheng said hesitantly, "I've heard some rumors about the Sinful Lady Palace."
Eh?
"Family Master Mie Zheng, please enlighten me!" Su Yu asked hurriedly.
Mie Zheng said, "Actually, it's not a secret. I just happened to come across it when I was traveling."
He continued, "A few decades ago, I took my daughter to visit an old friend in a seven-star civilization. Unexpectedly, the civilization was attacked by a group of extremely powerful Corpse Clan members!"
Corpse Clan?
He hadn't heard any rumors about the Corpse Race for a long time.
"What's strange is that the main intention of the Corpse Clan wasn't to invade the civilization, but to track down the whereabouts of the Sinful Lady Palace!" As he spoke, he cast a strange look at Su Yu.
The whereabouts of the sinful girl that the Corpse Clan was chasing?
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out, "What is the name of the leader of the Corpse Clan?"
Mie Zheng tried hard to recall. "I think it's called … Pearl?"
Bang –
Su Yu felt his head explode. The Pearl Female Corpse!
When they parted ways in the Sea of Constellations, the Pearl Female Corpse had mistakenly believed that Su Yu had died at the hands of the Sinful Lady Palace. Hence, she had sworn to destroy the Sinful Lady Palace.
After nearly fifty years, Su Yu thought that the Pearl Pearl Female Corpse had already given up.
But who knew …
Half a year passed like water. It swept away the aspirations of countless heroes and countless memories. But, it could not take away the oath that was engraved in the passage of time.
Just as the Pearl Pearl Corpse had said, she was willing to be like a vine, following the direction of the tree for the rest of her life, spreading into the boundless sky.
Even if the giant tree never lowered his head to look at her, he would never regret it.
Su Yu's heart trembled continuously, as if he had been electrocuted.
Fifty years!
That's fifty years!
What did she rely on to persevere for so long? Was it just because of that oath?
And, was it worth it for her to do so?
Su Yu felt his heart sink, as if it was being weighed down by an extremely heavy boulder.
There were unbearable burdens in life, and the Pearl Pearl Female Corpse's love was one of them.
