Cloud Head Summit Reception Hall.
"Senior Sister, do you think Senior Brother Cheng Yu will tell us the truth?" Tian Xing drank the tea served by the maidservant as he asked.
In this huge and dignified reception hall, if it was someone else, they would definitely be very nervous.
However, he was very casual because he was very familiar with the Cheng Clan.
After all, Cheng Yu had given him some special privileges. As long as it wasn't an extremely important or special place, he could freely enter and exit.
Furthermore, he was good friends with quite a number of Cheng Clan disciples. Therefore, coming to the Cheng Clan was as free as returning to Tianshan Sect.
"Hard to say. If he doesn't wish to speak, no one will be able to make him speak!" Tian Xue shook her head.
Obviously, she was very familiar with Cheng Yu's character.
"Ha! Senior Sister, you really understand Senior Brother Cheng Yu very well. Actually, I feel that what Martial Uncle said is right. You should fight for your own happiness.
Although Senior Brother has a lot of wives, he already has so many of them. He wouldn't mind adding another one! "Tian Xing laughed.
"Don't talk too much. I will handle my own matters!" Tian Xue glared at him discontentedly.
"Aren't I doing this for your sake? It's been so many years. It's not like Senior Brother Cheng Yu doesn't know that you like him. However, he didn't express anything.
If you really wish for him to confess to you, I reckon you can only wait until the mountain collapses! "Tian Xing acted as though he couldn't see the killing intent in Tian Xue's eyes as he continued.
Because he truly felt sorry for his Senior Sister. It had been so many years. Even he had found someone he liked. However, his Senior Sister was still unable to fulfill her wish. This caused him to feel anxious.
After all, in his heart, he had always treated Tian Xue as his own sister. He hoped that his Senior Sister would be able to find a happy ending.
"Enough. This is the Cheng Clan. Don't speak carelessly." Tian Xue's eyes flickered with a trace of sadness as she spoke to Tian Xing.
Could it be that she didn't know this logic?
However, this matter wasn't only related to the two of them. There were still so many women behind Cheng Yu.
All these years, the excuse that Cheng Clan used was that Cheng Yu was in seclusion.
All these years, Tian Xue had never seen Cheng Yu before. Therefore, every time she did, she would accompany Cheng Yu's women to chat.
Seeing that the relationship between these women was so good, she was actually very envious. Sometimes, she even wanted to join this group.
However, she could feel that these women had been intentionally or unintentionally expressing the difference in everyone's identity.
Therefore, although they seemed to have a good relationship with each other all these years, she knew that these women had always kept a certain distance from her and only treated her as a friend.
Now that Tian Xing was saying such things to her, she was even more worried that the walls had ears. If Cheng Yu's wives were to hear it, they would definitely distance themselves from her.
However, what they didn't expect was that Cheng Yu was already standing outside the living room. He had heard their conversation clearly.
Cheng Yu was embarrassed. Could it be that these two people were here to force him to abdicate?
Cough, cough!
Cheng Yu intentionally coughed twice before entering the living room.
"Senior Brother Cheng Yu!" Tian Xing quickly stood up when he saw Cheng Yu had arrived.
"Long time no see!" Cheng Yu looked at the duo and smiled.
"I heard that you have been in seclusion for all these years?" Tian Xue looked at Cheng Yu. Her heart was still thumping rapidly.
"That's right. I hope to comprehend the Heavenly Dao as soon as possible!" Cheng Yu smiled.
Back then, he had left for close to ten years. Other than his women, Keke and Shi Ji, no one else knew of this matter. Even the elders of Cheng Clan didn't know of it.
Firstly, it was to ensure the safety of Cheng Clan.
After all, those who understood Cheng Clan would know that he was the strongest person in Cheng Clan.
If others were to know that he had already left Cheng Clan, it was inevitable that some people would harbor evil intentions towards Cheng Clan. So much so that they might even destroy the current system of Cheng Clan.
On the other hand, he was also protecting himself.
Because when he left, he was destined to do something spectacular outside. For example, clashing with the dynasty or those cities under the dynasty.
If others were to know that he had already left Cheng Clan and coincidentally caused such a commotion outside, it was inevitable that some people would guess if these matters were related to him.
Although it might just be some guesses, no one would know the truth. But as long as such guesses were to spread everywhere, it would inevitably enter the ears of the dynasty.
There was no such thing as an impenetrable wall in this world. To outsiders, it might seem like something that couldn't be touched at all, but when some things entered the ears of some people, even things that couldn't be touched at all might become closely related.
When the time comes, the dynasty would also be curious if these matters were related to him. They would send people to investigate. Perhaps, they might be able to find some clues to prove that these matters were really done by him.
He had done so many things outside. He was also unable to guarantee that everything he did would be airtight.
Therefore, in order to avoid these troubles, he could only let everyone know that he was still in Cheng Clan. This way, no matter how chaotic the cultivation world was, it would have nothing to do with him.
At the very least, no one would be able to prove that he had left Cheng Clan and revealed his identity.
Therefore, even if Tian Xue were to ask him, he couldn't possibly tell them the truth. Otherwise, if this matter were to spread out, it would easily arouse suspicion.
The Cheng Clan had obviously said that he was in seclusion. But now, there were rumors that he had left Cheng Clan.
Wouldn't that be telling others that he had intentionally concealed this matter? There must be some secret that he couldn't divulge to others.
"Senior Brother, how's the result of your seclusion? Don't tell me you have really comprehended the Heavenly Dao? "Tian Xing enquired curiously.
He knew that Cheng Yu's talent was very high. Therefore, Cheng Yu was able to have such an achievement. As for them, they could only get further and further away from Cheng Yu.
If Cheng Yu was trying to comprehend the Heavenly Dao and had been in seclusion for so many years, now that he had come out, he would definitely have a huge harvest. Tian Xing also hoped that he could bask in his glory and listen to Cheng Yu's comprehension of the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps, he might be able to comprehend a lot of things.
"The Heavenly Dao is myriad. How could it be so easy to comprehend? The cultivators in this world are all ignorant. How could I have ever heard of someone truly comprehending the Heavenly Dao?" Cheng Yu smiled as he shook his head.
"Even so, I believe Senior Brother must have gained a lot right?" Tian Xing continued.
"Seclusion for ten years. If there's no harvest at all, wouldn't I have wasted the past ten years?" Cheng Yu smiled.
"Heh heh. Senior Brother, you are so smart. After seclusion for ten years, you must have gained a lot. A stupid person like me would definitely not have the capability to comprehend the Heavenly Dao.
Why don't you share with me what you have gained from seclusion? "Tian Xing scowled.
He knew that Cheng Yu was a very amiable person. Furthermore, Cheng Yu had taken care of him like a younger brother. Therefore, he dared to say such words.
If it was someone else, he wouldn't have said such words.
Just like those senior brothers in Tianshan Sect. They weren't so close to each other. Their character wouldn't be as good as Senior Brother Cheng Yu. Therefore, it was naturally impossible for him to say such words to them.
"Tian Xing, you are too much!" Tian Xue felt that even if Cheng Yu was a good person, Tian Xing's words were still somewhat rude.
"You are so smart and you still dare to call yourself stupid. Do you really think Senior Brother is so easy to fool?" Cheng Yu teased.
"Heh heh. No matter how smart I am, I'm still not as smart as Senior Brother!" Tian Xing also felt somewhat embarrassed.
"Heavenly Dao isn't something that ordinary people could comprehend. As long as anyone could comprehend a trace of it, they would be able to gain a lot of benefits.
Therefore, I don't dare to say how much I have comprehended. But if you really wish to know about my harvest, we can have a chat when we are free.
As for today, you guys better tell me the reason why you are looking for me! "Cheng Yu didn't get angry.
After so many years, how could he still not know what kind of temper Tian Xing had?
Furthermore, he had always treated Tian Xing as his younger brother. For him to say such words, it had also expressed his closeness and trust towards him.
As for comprehending the Heavenly Dao, in his opinion, as long as it was someone he acknowledged, it wouldn't be a problem for him to talk about it.
Besides, the Heavenly Dao wasn't something that anyone could comprehend. Even if he were to tell Tian Xing about his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, Tian Xing might not be able to comprehend the same thing as him.
But he had to admit, if he could listen to someone else's comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, it would be of some help.
If he could help Tian Xing cultivate better, Cheng Yu didn't mind helping him. After all, they had been friends for so many years.
"Thank you, Senior Brother. I knew that Senior Brother isn't a stingy person!" Tian Xing was stunned before expressing his gratitude emotionally.
Obviously, he didn't expect that Senior Brother Cheng Yu would actually be willing to share his comprehension of the Heavenly Dao with him. This had truly moved him.
"Today, I came here to ask you. In the past, the Cheng Family Competition was always open to the public. Why is it not open to the public this year? Did something happen? "Tian Xue looked at Cheng Yu and enquired.
Cheng Yu didn't reply to Tian Xue, but looked at her with a smile.
"Why are you looking at us like that?" Tian Xue was somewhat embarrassed by Cheng Yu's gaze. Her heart was thumping as her face turned red.
"Is this what you wish to ask or is it what your Sect Master Martial Uncle wishes to ask?" Cheng Yu smiled.
In the past, Tian Xue had never asked about such matters. Besides, whether the competition was open or not had nothing to do with them. Why would she specially come over to the Cheng Family to ask about this?
"Of course it's what I wish to ask. Why? Can't I say it? "Tian Xue persisted.
"Of course you can say it. It's just that the answer you and your Sect Master Martial Uncle will be different!" Cheng Yu replied.
