"Xuelian, please state clearly which genius it is. We must recruit such a genius into our Left Palace Master's faction," Wei Zheng said solemnly.
The alluring Cabinet Mistress felt much more at ease, and she revealed a faint smile as she said, "Isn't he Su Yuxian, who isn't even qualified to become the Left Palace Master's faction? Even senior brother Wei doesn't like him, so how could he have fought Jian Wusheng to a draw? It's just a rumor! Hehe … "
Wei Zheng was petrified.
How could it be him?
"I don't believe it!" After Wei Zheng came back to his senses, his expression became gloomy as he shook his head. "I'm quite good at judging people, and this person's talent is just so-so. The rumor that he fought Jian Wusheng to a draw needs to be verified."
"Hehe, won't we know during the seasonal exam?" The alluring Cabinet Mistress was in a good mood, and as she took a sip of tea, she was overjoyed.
Xue Qi was dumbfounded. She couldn't believe it either.
Xue Qi shifted her gaze and said, "This won't do. I must go and meet him now. Regardless of whether it's true or not, we mustn't let the Right Palace Master beat me to it."
Similarly …
Lao Ai and Shao Qingfeng were shocked when they heard this news.
"It's impossible." Shao Qingfeng shook his head firmly. He didn't believe this rumor.
Lao Ai got lost in his thoughts, then said in a deep voice, "It's quite possible. There were many witnesses, so it's impossible for him to fabricate a rumor."
"If I had known that this lad was so capable, I would have been more lenient in dealing with Wuxin's matter. But now, I can't back down." Lao Ai regretted his decision.
Now, both sides were like fire and water, and the possibility of Su Yu joining the Right Palace Master's faction was almost zero.
If the Right Palace Master found out that they had blocked such a heaven-defying genius from joining the Right Palace Master because of their personal grudges, they would probably suffer unimaginable punishments.
Lao Ai's mood instantly became restless.
"We mustn't let this continue. If it's proven that he's so capable, he will surely be recruited by the Left Palace Master. At that time, how could the Right Palace Master not be angry? We mustn't allow him to join the Left Palace Master's faction, "Lao Ai said.
Shao Qingfeng asked gloomily, "What should we do?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Lao Ai's eyes as he said, "Of course, before the test, I'll severely injure him or kill him directly. Only then can I prevent him from entering the seasonal test."
Now, many people didn't believe that Su Yu could fight Jian Wusheng to a draw.
As for the upcoming seasonal exam, it would attract the attention of many people. Whether Su Yu had that kind of ability and whether the rumors were true or not, everything would depend on Su Yu's battle during the seasonal exam.
Therefore, they wanted to get rid of Su Yu before that happened, so that he wouldn't be able to get on the stage and be tested by the crowd.
Although they might be questioned, it would be worth it if they could get rid of the hidden danger.
"But, killing is prohibited within the sect. So, how are we supposed to attack?" Shao Qingfeng asked puzzledly.
Lao Ai smiled coldly. "Do you still need me to teach you? Didn't you already set a trap for that playboy? Now is the time to use him. "
Upon hearing this, Shao Qingfeng came to a sudden realization, and a trace of ridicule appeared on the corners of his mouth. "Hehe, I almost forgot about this trash."
Inner sect.
"Master, please let me go to the Outer Sect. I want to challenge someone." A slim and beautiful woman knelt quietly in front of a stone door.
Mo Tianxuan, the strongest person in the Eighteen Blessed and Heavenly Lands, was in the sect!
"Is it the outer sanctum's disciple who fought to a draw with your mother?" An apathetic voice transmitted from within the door. "There is no need for that, as it was just a draw. Let's wait until someone defeats him. You can leave now."
The woman hesitated for a moment, then left unwillingly.
A dignified woman in a blue robe was quietly cultivating inside the stone door.
All of a sudden, layers of black ghost energy appeared on her palm. If Su Yu was here, he would surely recognize that it was the Extreme Evil Ghost Energy that he had absorbed.
"Where did that old perverted thief go? Who will get my guillotine? "Mo Tianxuan sighed softly.
She was the woman who had disguised herself as a man, whom Su Yu had saved. She was also the Red Blood Palace's ruler, Mo Tianxuan.
The matter of her losing the demonic path's Supreme Fairy Artifact hadn't been publicized to the public. She had just sent people to all the great markets to inquire about it, and once they received any news, they would immediately retrieve the fairy artifact.
Moreover, they still had an important mission, which was to find that old perverted thief.
Whether or not they could get rid of this old perverted thief would depend on that mysterious old perverted thief.
Su Yu, who was completely unaware of all of this, went back to the Demon Mountain. He planned to cultivate for a while before participating in the seasonal exam.
When he had just sat down in his room, a piercingly cold sword energy swept toward him from outside.
Shock appeared on Su Yu's face, and he immediately teleported two hundred feet away, arriving in the sky outside the room.
When he looked down, he saw that it was Bing Wuxin, who was holding a long sword, sweeping through his central palace.
With a single strike of the sword, the whole central palace was cut in half and turned into ruins.
Su Yu couldn't help but get annoyed. "Are you crazy?"
Bing Wuxin turned around and pointed her sword at Su Yu, her fighting spirit surging. "Su Yuxian, I want to challenge you."
Su Yu was baffled. "Are you crazy? Why do you want to challenge me all of a sudden?"
"I heard that you fought Jian Wusheng to a draw, so I want to challenge you. Don't worry, I will suppress my cultivation to the same level as yours. "Bing Wuxin's fighting spirit was overflowing, and she yearned for a fight.
Jian Wusheng? Su Yu was speechless. He was just trying to practice his new technique, so how did he end up provoking trouble?
"Oh yeah, a couple is fighting. Hurry up and carry a small stool." Gongsun Wuxie, who was eager to see the world in chaos, giggled as she carried a stool and flew to the roof. She rested her chin on her hands and watched the fight excitedly.
This commotion had drawn out Bai Shanliang and Tian Renyao.
"Cough! Cough! You two should go outside and fight. The house has been destroyed, and we will have to sleep on the streets." Bai Shanliang coughed twice.
Tian Renyao cast a glance at Bing Wuxin. "Brother Yuxian, don't be afraid. I will help you beat this woman together. We are husband and wife, and our hearts are united."
What a bunch of weirdos! Blue veins popped out on Su Yu's forehead.
He glared at Bing Wuxin angrily. "Isn't the seasonal exam just around the corner? Can't you wait for a few days? I just came back from a great battle, and if you want to take advantage of me, you can fight me now. "
"Bah! If I, Bing Wuxin, want to fight fairly. Who wants to take advantage of you? " Bing Wuxin sheathed her sword and said coldly, "It's fine. My injuries are almost healed, and I will fight you in the seasonal exam. I will also settle the palm attack you used on me that day."
Su Yu blushed with shame. This girl still remembers the grudge from that day!
"Tsk! How boring! "Gongsun Wuxie pouted her small mouth and spoke disdainfully.
Su Yu was speechless as he looked at the ruined palace below. He was going to be homeless tonight.
"Junior brother, why don't you come to my place tonight?" Bai Shanliang asked when he saw that Su Yu was in a difficult position.
Su Yu naturally wouldn't reject him, and when he was about to agree, Tian Renyao said angrily, "Brother Shanliang, you are up to no good again. Do you want Brother Yuxian to test the poison for you?"
Su Yu was startled, and he looked at Bai Shanliang.
"Nonsense! I, Bai Shanliang, have kindness in my name, so how could I test the poison on my dear junior brother? Don't speak nonsense and slander my innocence! "Bai Shanliang was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he shouted righteously.
All of a sudden, as he waved his sleeves, many colorful bottles fell out and scattered on the ground.
Su Yu looked at them and saw that they all had labels on them.
"Five Poisons Intestines Shattering Powder!"
"Drunken Life Death Pill!"
"One Life Death Pill!"
"Nine Deadly Poison Life Liquid!"
..
Blue veins popped out on Su Yu's forehead.
Bai Shanliang was embarrassed. He picked up the bottles of elixirs and coughed heavily. "Ahem! I forgot to vomit blood!"
Wah!
Bai Shanliang spouted a mouthful of blood and covered his chest in panic. "It's awful! I must quickly go back to rest. Ahem!"
After he left, Tian Renyao said flirtatiously, "Brother Yuxian, why don't you sleep with me tonight?"
Su Yu's whole body shuddered. "Get lost!"
Bing Wu's fighting spirit rose once again. "Su Yu, why don't you come to my room?"
Su Yu felt a headache when he looked at her eyes. This woman is pretty, but why is she so barbaric?
At this moment, a bell-like chuckle transmitted over. "Brother Yuxian, why don't you come to my room? Wu Xie is quite obedient. "
Obedient? How could Su Yu not understand the little demoness's temperament?
But, no matter how he looked at it, she was still safer than the other three demons.
"Fine, then I will disturb you, senior sister Wu Xie," Su Yu said.
The little demoness chuckled like a fox whose evil scheme had succeeded. It was unknown what kind of devious plan she was hatching.
It was at this moment that Xue Qi came into the cave.
When she surveyed the mountain, she couldn't help but be startled. "Is the Demon Conference being held here?"
"It's the Demolition Conference." Su Yu pointed at his house, which had been turned into ruins.
"Senior sister Xue Qi, why are you looking for me?" Su Yu asked bluntly.
Xue Qi revealed a charming smile. "Can't I look for junior brother Su for no reason?"
After teasing him for a moment, Xue Qi said with a stern look, "I came here to thank you for saving me. I'm really grateful to you. You owe Ruffian Long 10,000 merit points to me."
Su Yu didn't forget this matter, so he waved his hand at her and said, "Junior brother, you can't let others pay for the debt you owe me. I appreciate your good intentions, but it was my duty to save you. You don't need to take it to heart."
Xue Qi looked at Su Yu and sincerely praised him for his character.
"Senior sister, do you need anything else?" Su Yu asked.
After Xue Qi came back to her senses, a solemn look appeared on her face. "I want to verify whether the rumor about you fighting Jian Wusheng is true or not."
"It's true? Senior sister, do you also want to challenge me?" Su Yu felt a headache coming on.
Xue Qi opened her eyes wide in surprise. "It's true."
After Xue Qi pondered this for a moment, her eyes lit up. "Junior brother, I wonder …"
Swoosh!
Before she could even finish her words, a person rushed into the mountain. He was pacing back and forth at the entrance, but he didn't dare to enter.
He surveyed the surroundings, and when he saw Su Yu, delight appeared in his eyes. "Brother Su, please save Shangguan Yunque. Only you can save him."
"Shangguan Yunque? What happened to him?" Su Yu asked as he looked at the person who had brought him this news. He had a slight impression of this person. It seemed like he was the Shangguan family's genius, Shangguan Fei, who Su Yu had saved once in the Fairy Confining Forest.
Blood seeped out of the corners of Shangguan Fei's mouth, and there was a red palm print on his face. His clothes were also covered in dust.
"Brother Yunque was captured by Shao Qingfeng, and he wants to cripple his Dantian," Shangguan Fei said anxiously.
Su Yu was startled by this. "Shao Qingfeng? He dared to capture people in the sanctum at will and cripple their Dantians? "
The sanctum's rules were strict, and besides the law enforcement team, few people dared to punish people in private.
"It's … It's Shao Qingfeng. A month ago, brother Yunque vouched for three of his friends and borrowed 10,000 merit points from the black market at a high interest rate. But, who would have expected that those three friends harbored evil intentions? In fact, they borrowed 100,000 merit points and ran away. Now, it's time for them to repay the loan, and since those three scoundrels ran away, brother Yunque will have to repay them.
Vouch for them? Su Yu suddenly recalled that Shangguan Yunque had once vouched for his three fair-weather friends at a high interest rate. At that time, Su Yu had even warned him not to easily trust fair-weather friends.
However, he couldn't refuse him, as he didn't want to give him face.
Now, such a troublesome matter had arisen.
"Don't be anxious. Brother Yunque's net worth is quite high, so you should be able to pay 100,000 merit points, right?" Su Yu asked.
Shangguan Fei smiled bitterly and said, "If it was just 100,000 merit points, it wouldn't be a problem for me. But, since the last month, the interest has been compounded, and now, I have to pay 500,000 merit points. Moreover, I must pay it today. So, how is this possible?"
Compounded interest? Su Yu's expression became gloomy. The terrifying thing about high interest rates was that when one paid a debt, the interest would be higher than the principal.
Now, it seemed like what Shangguan Yunque had signed was a daily interest loan, which meant that the principal and interest would be calculated every day. So, after thirty days, he would have to pay four times the principal!
"Why is he so muddle-headed?" Su Yu shook his head inwardly. He was, after all, the young master of a great aristocratic family, and he had underestimated the black market's people.
Shangguan Fei was so anxious that he almost cried. "Brother Su, please save brother Yunque. I have already sent someone to inform sister Qinger, but she will need at least a day to rush over from the inner sanctum. By the time she arrives, it will already be too late. So, you are the only one who can save brother Yunque."
Shangguan Yunque was a loyal and righteous person, and he had treated Su Yu well. Now that he was in trouble, Su Yu couldn't just sit by and watch.
Moreover, Su Yu's intuition told him that Shangguan Yunque had probably fallen into a trap.
Those three fair-weather friends had probably been bribed by Shao Qingfeng, and they had set up a trap for Shangguan Yunque so that Shao Qingfeng could easily control him.
Shao Qingfeng was really like a haunting ghost!
All of a sudden, Su Yu's gaze flickered. "Shangguan Fei, can you tell me who told you to look for me?"
Shangguan Fei replied hurriedly, "I heard it from a bystander. He said that you got a lot of merit points in the Elegant Spirit Mountain, and he said that you can probably lend some of them to brother Yunque."
Su Yu's eyes flickered slightly, and a cold sneer appeared at the corners of his mouth.
"I was just wondering what a coincidence it was! It turns out that the person Shao Qingfeng wants to deal with is me!" Su Yu sneered at him.
The fact that he had gotten a large number of merit points in the Elegant Spirit Mountain was only known to the people involved, and it hadn't been widely spread.
Yet, an ordinary passerby had coincidentally pointed out the right path for Shangguan Fei and pleaded for Su Yu's mercy. It could be seen from this that Shao Qingfeng's ultimate goal was to lure Su Yu out.
"Hehe, don't even think of hitting me!" Su Yu's eyes flickered with a cold glint. This was a poisonous snake that had attacked him from behind, and he had provoked him several times. It was time for him to settle this once and for all.
"Where are they? Who were there?" Su Yu asked in a deep voice.
Shangguan Fei was overjoyed. "There was Shao Qingfeng, as well as the outer sanctum's black market's people, as well as an inner sanctum's disciple."
It was obvious that the inner sanctum's disciple was Lao Ai, who liked to launch sneak attacks and leave a deep impression on Su Yu.
