Chapter 196: Emperor of The Great Xia Dynasty And Su Changyu

In the mystic realm.

With the departure of the Sword King, everyone couldn’t hide the joy on their faces.

The happiest person was Chen Lingrou who originally thought that she had just gotten a useless thing, but to her surprise, the Sword King actually gave her his Sword Dao inheritance.

‘Wouldn’t I advance greatly in the future?’

Everyone was overjoyed. Gu Jianxian remained very calm but Da Xu was somehow upset.

‘I followed them through the danger but I didn’t get a single reward?’

Seemingly sensing Da Xu’s emotions, Daoist Tai Hua walked down from the stone platform and looked at Da Xu with a smile on his face. “Da Xu, do you feel that you weren’t rewarded for the efforts that you’ve put in throughout this period of time?”

Daoist Tai Hua put away the Heavenly Secret Eight Trigrams diagram and then looked at Da Xu smilingly.

“A little bit.”

Da Xu couldn’t bring himself to say that he was feeling extremely upset so he just said a little bit.

“Da Xu, although you didn’t get any reward, you’ve gained our recognition. From now on, you’ll be the guest elder of Qingyun Dao Sect. How does that sound?”

Daoist Tai Hua also felt that Da Xu was rather pitiful because he didn’t get anything after going through so much with them.

“Guest Elder? Sect Leader, I, Da Xu, am an honest person who isn’t well educated. You’re not lying to me, are you?”

In Da Xu’s eyes, treasures were not very useful to him. He was a Ghost King and could only use ghost treasures. Hence, those treasures were not of any use to him

Becoming a guest elder of the Qingyun Dao Sect and entering the Qingyun Dao Sect was a good thing for Da Xu.

“Don’t worry, do I seem like someone who would lie to you?”

Daoist Tai Hua said seriously.

“No.”

Da Xu replied with a sheepish smile.

Looking at Da Xu who was satisfied with becoming a guest elder, Daoist Tai Hua was pleased.

However, at that moment, Daoist Tai Hua turned to look at Gu Jianxian before continuing to speak.

“Old Gu, I shall make the decision. From now on, you’ll be the inner sect disciple of the Qingyun Dao Sect. Are you happy?”

Looking at Gu Jianxian, Daoist Tai Hua also thought to himself that since he had given Da Xu some benefits, he had to also give Gu Jianxian some benefits. Otherwise, he would be being biased.

“I’m happy.”

Gu Jianxian said calmly.

Daoist Tai Hua was speechless.

‘You call that being happy?’

‘Do you think I’m stupid?’

However, thinking that that was Gu Jianxian’s normal behavior, he didn’t have anything more to say.

“Okay, since we’ve already obtained the creation, let’s go.”

It was Daoist Tai Hua’s habit to leave after taking advantage.

Leaving such a place quickly would ensure that he would definitely not suffer a loss.

In case someone came later, he would suffer a huge loss.

“Alright.”

“Let’s go back to the sect.”

“Yes, yes, let’s go back to the sect. I want to see my treasures.”

Everyone nodded. Now, they all wished that they could go back to the sect sooner and look at the treasures they had obtained.

“Okay, let’s leave together then.”

Daoist Tai Hua said. He was the first to leap out of the Well of This Life.

Since he had obtained the inheritance, Daoist Tai Hua didn’t think that the Sword King would get up to any dirty tricks.

Daoist Tai Hua left while Da Xu immediately caught up with him.

Everyone also jumped into the well one after another.

Seeing that the people had already left, Su Changyu too did not say anything. He was the last to leave and just before leaving, Su Changyu took a look around and felt that the place was somewhat clean.

After thinking about it, Su Changyu carved some words on the stone wall with the frosty blade.

“There are three million Sword Immortals in the sky but they all have to bow down to me.”

‘Yes, that looks much better.’

Su Changyu looked at the writing on the stone wall and couldn’t help but be elated.

However, Su Changyu left his name behind after writing the poem.

“A peerless Sword Immortal, Su Changyu.”

The words he wrote were quite meaningful.

Soon, Su Changyu jumped directly into the Well of This Life.

“Wait for me, guys.”

Su Changyu called.

At the next moment, in the Qingyun Dao Sect.

The weather was pleasant.

As the clear breeze blew over, Daoist Tai Hua and the others immediately appeared one after another.

They were standing there with confusion in their eyes but they soon recovered from the shock.

“We’re back. Master, we’re back.”

“Indeed, we’re back. We’ve made a huge profit this time.”

“We didn’t lose out at all, we made such a huge profit.”

“Hey, where’s Eldest Senior Brother? Why hasn’t he appeared?”

The disciples of the Qingyun Dao Sect returned to the sect, but Xu Luochen soon noticed that Su Changyu seemed to have gone missing.

“Oh dear.”

At this point, Da Xu spoke up.

As Da Xu’s voice sounded, everyone looked curious as they were at a loss for what to do.

“What’s the matter?”

“Da Xu, what happened?”

Everyone looked at Da Xu curiously.

“The array formation in the Well of This Life is a fixed Teleportation Array. We entered it at the same time, so we will be directly transported within the Dao Sect, but it seems that Senior Su did not come with us.”

“If I’m not wrong, Senior Su should have been teleported to other places.”

Da Xu was knowledgeable and hence knew what happened.

After he said that, everyone frowned.

“Do you mean to say that Changyu might be teleported to other places and hence cannot return to the sect?”

Daoist Tai Hua asked worriedly.

“If I’m not wrong, that should be the case.”

Da Xu nodded solemnly.

At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but seem worried.

“Where could he have been teleported to?”

“Will there be danger?”

“How can this be?”

The crowd was worried and couldn’t help but ask one after another.

“He shouldn’t be teleported far and there’s a 99% chance that he is within 2,500 kilometers. There definitely wouldn’t be danger because there are no dangerous places in Qingzhou.”

Da Xu frowned and answered.

The only dangerous place in Qingzhou was probably the Linhe Ghost Grave.

However, the Linhe Ghost Grave was unfortunately not dangerous anymore.

Hence, Su Changyu wouldn’t encounter any danger.

After realizing what Da Xu meant, everyone couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

‘Good that he seems to be fine.’

“In that case, then let’s wait for Changyu to return. I have something to announce!”

“We cultivators must not be lazy. You have obtained the opportunity and creation, but you cannot be lax because of that. So, three months from now, all of you are to go down the mountain and learn well. You can’t always rely on others, right?”

Daoist Tai Hua said with a serious expression.

Human desires were endless.

At first, Daoist Tai Hua only hoped that the sect could be advanced to a third-rank sect. He would be content with that.

Now that Ye Ping had appeared and was even going to the Jin Nation Academy, the sect could be completely advanced to a second-rank sect.

However, Daoist Tai Hua felt uneasy about relying entirely on Ye Ping.

However, things were now different. The disciples of the sect had already received creation, and since they had the abilities, they might as well rely on themselves.

What was the point of always relying on others?

Hence, he decided to let them go down the mountain.

The purpose of going down the mountain was very simple, one was to improve themselves. They couldn’t waste time in the sect everyday.

They didn’t have any abilities in the past, but now that they did, they had no excuse.

Otherwise, it would be unjustified.

The second purpose was even simpler. Daoist Tai Hua knew that with the talent of his disciples, it would be fine to fool Ye Ping for a while, but it would be impossible to fool him forever.

The answer was obviously impossible. Hence, he hoped that they would go down the mountain to train and hone their skills before going to teach Ye Ping.

Not to mention teaching Ye Ping, if he could give Ye Ping some inspiration, it would be a good thing too.

He might not be able to teach Ye Ping any skills but he could inspire him.

If he couldn’t, he might as well die.

“Huh? Go down the mountain?”

“Sect Leader, I have to go down the mountain too?”

Everyone was a little surprised as they didn’t expect to go down the mountain.

Chen Lingrou was the most curious of them all as she asked Daoist Tai Hua.

“Yes, you also have to go down the mountain. Okay, you guys study it carefully, I’m going to drive all of you out of the sect in three months’ time.”

Daoist Tai Hua waved his sleeve and then left the place.

The thought of sending them away in three months’ time made him feel delighted because he would be able to save some money on food.

As for the safety and security issues, Daoist Tai Hua didn’t want to think about that at all. With those treasures, they should not be scared of encountering thieves.

Besides, they were often taught not to be cowards.

They couldn’t be sheltered forever.

Soon, as Daoist Tai Hua left, the disciples also did not think much about it and left the rear cliff.

Since their master had already said that, there was nothing else they could say and hence had no choice but to cultivate properly. If they went down the mountain in three months’ time and ended up being unable to defeat others despite having treasures, that would be really embarrassing.

After everyone left, Da Xu and Gu Jianxian were the only ones left on the rear cliff.

It wasn’t too bad for Gu Jianxian. After watching everyone leave, he vanished on the spot too.

As for Da Xu, he looked at the backs of the departing crowd with great admiration.

“It’s indeed worthy of being a hidden sect. They’re clearly so strong and yet they’re so modest. Aren’t they supreme experts? I love it.”

Da Xu muttered in his heart, completely convinced by the disciples of the Qingyun Dao Sect.

At the same time, in Chen Nation.

On a green hill, two figures stood on the edge of the cliff, one wearing a black robe with golden thread while the other clad in a light green robe.

They seemed to be in their early forties.

The man in the long black robe seemed mild-mannered, but he was not exactly friendly and amiable. However, he wasn’t aloof either.

However, he vaguely gave off an extraordinary vibe.

As for the man in the light green robe, he seemed rather scheming and ambitious as each move of his seemed enigmatic. However, if one did not observe carefully, they would realize that they did not seem normal.

“It’s an opportunity. I met Chang Jiao back when I was in Chen Nation.”

“Ah, now that I think about it, almost thirty years have passed.”

“To be honest, I miss Chang Jiao, but unfortunately, we are not destined to be together.”

The man in the golden silk black robe spoke, his eyes full of emotions as he stared at the orange-yellow sky.

“Your Majesty, don’t be sad, when the time comes for the Great Xia Dynasty to truly rise and go through Immortal Ascension, Lady Chang Jiao will be revived too.”

The man in the light green robe said with a bow.

However, after he said that, the man in the black robe could not help but sigh, and his expression could not be seen clearly.

“Rise of the Great Xia Dynasty? If my tenth son is around, there might really be a chance.”

“But he’s no longer around, how can the Great Xia Dynasty rise?”

He seemed rather speechless.

“Your Majesty, you’re being too worried. His Highness is indeed a true peerless elite. Although he was harmed by thieves, I believe that he must still be alive in this world. Maybe, Heaven intends for him to go through more training.”

“Maybe it won’t be long before Your Majesty can see His Highness.”

The man in the light green robe said.

“Xuan Ji, you don’t have to comfort me anymore. My tenth son is already dead and that’s an indisputable fact, but the good thing is, Qian’er is not too bad. Although he’s a little rash, it’s normal for young people to be reckless. He’s generally fine.”

“I’ll step down soon, we’ll let Qian’er succeed the throne and change the destiny of the Great Xia Dynasty. I’m not going to last much longer.”

The black-robed middle-aged man continued.

However, the man in light green robe immediately knelt on the ground while his expression changed drastically.

“Your Majesty, you must not say that. The Great Xia Dynasty still needs you and the people of the dynasty need your rule. If you step down, it will not be a good thing for the people of the Great Xia Dynasty and the imperial court.”

He was extremely agitated as he was determined not to let the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty step down.

Yes, the man in the black robe with golden silk was the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The middle-aged man in light green robe was the Chancellor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Taishang Xuanji.

He held great authority and power in court, and was the top existence of the Great Xia Dynasty. He was terrifying both in terms of background and power, and he was considered to be second only to the emperor.

When Taishang Xuanji heard that the emperor wanted to retire, he, as a subject, definitely wouldn’t agree to it no matter what.

Although there was indeed a need to change the destiny of the imperial court, it was Heaven’s will and it could not be decided by him. Otherwise, it would appear that the subjects no longer needed the emperor.

“Xuanji, you’re good at everything but you see through things too clearly. Sometimes, that’s not a good thing. You and I can never be like me and Bo Xuan.”

The emperor said with melancholy.

There was neither anger nor joy on his face, and it was hard to tell what he was feeling.

“However, I am as loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty as Bo Xuan is to you, Your Majesty.”

Taishang Xuanji hung his head low and said seriously.

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did not say anything and simply admired the scenery.

At this moment, someone suddenly spoke up.

“What are you doing here? Bullying the elderly? Oh, no, bullying the disabled?”

The voice seemed a bit abrupt.

Taishang Xuanji immediately got up and looked toward the southeast.

The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did the same too with great interest.

At this moment, in the southeast direction, a figure slowly appeared in front of the two of them.

It was a young man who was wearing a white robe and seemed to be peerless. There was an inexplicable aura around him and he was just like a supreme Sword Immortal.

His aura was cold and indifferent while his gaze was calm. His handsome face made him seem likable too.

In the distance, Su Changyu walked over and couldn’t help but frown.

It was because he realized that he didn’t seem to have returned to the sect after jumping into the Well of This Life.

Immediately afterwards, he wanted to ask for directions, but as soon as he came over, he saw someone kneeling.

Su Changyu subconsciously thought that someone was getting bullied by a stronger person.

Su Changyu would usually just turn around and leave, for fear that he would be robbed. But now, he was not afraid.

He had a supreme Sword Immortal sword in hand and there was nothing to be scared of.

Hence, with the spirit of helping whenever he could, he hollered and tried to look like an impressive person. He would ask for directions too.

However, after taking another look, he felt that he seemed… to have mistaken something.

“Ah! This?”

“You…”

However, when they looked at Su Changyu, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty and Taishang Xuanji were completely stunned.

One reason was that Su Changyu’s aura was too startling.

Secondly, it was because Su Changyu surprisingly had an uncanny resemblance to the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s younger self.

“This! This! This!”

In particular, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was dumbfounded as he looked at Su Changyu with astonishment.

It was the same for Taishang Xuanji.

He had seen the young emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty who was indeed extremely dashing. Hence, he won the hearts of all the beauties in the world.

Although Su Changyu’s appearance could not be said to be exactly the same, it was at least 80% similar.

“Your Majesty…”

Taishang Xuanji’s voice was shaky.

However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty quickly sent a voice transmission to Xuanji to tell him not to reveal his identity. He was also at a loss.

“Master?”

Taishang Xuanji immediately looked at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, at a complete loss for words.

However, Taishang Xuanji was at a loss for words and so was the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.

“Do you guys know each other?”

Looking at their shocked gazes, Su Changyu couldn’t help but be stunned.

‘Have I misunderstood something?’

However, Su Changyu wasn’t embarrassed at all.

As long as one wasn’t embarrassed, the ones to be embarrassed would be others.

“Little friend, who are you?”

Looking at the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, Taishang Xuanji immediately asked about Su Changyu’s origin and background.

“Sword Immortal Su Changyu.”

Su Changyu said calmly and revealed his identity.

He understood that there were only two types of experts

One was heard of, the other was not heard of.

Besides, the real experts were basically unheard of.

He happened to be the kind that was unheard of. Anyway, no matter which type he was, it would be best if he could deceive others.

“Su Changyu?”

They looked at each other in shock.

However, they gradually snapped back to their senses.

Taishang Xuanji immediately asked, “Little friend, where are you from? Are your parents alive? How old are you this year?”

Taishang Xuanji asked.

However, after he said that, Su Changyu could not help but continue to frown.

‘Why ask that for no reason?’

‘Do you want to rob me and my sect?’

Su Changyu’s logic was strange but he was not to be blamed for it. It was mainly because Daoist Tai Hua often told him to be careful when he was out.

Hence, Su Changyu immediately answered.

“Your Excellency, aren’t you asking a bit too much?”

Su Changyu obviously did not want to answer this question.

Taishang Xuanji couldn’t help but be awkward.

However, he soon immediately found a reason to explain.

“It’s indeed a bit sudden. I have a pretty daughter who unfortunately hasn’t found a husband yet. I think you should be compatible with her.”

Taishang Xuanji explained it with an excuse.

However, Su Changyu was not a fool and wouldn’t be fooled by those words.

Moreover, he needed their help now and hence didn’t dwell too much on it.

“May I ask, where is this place?” Su Changyu asked calmly.

He usually wouldn’t talk much because the more he said, the more mistakes there would be.

Most importantly, he felt that there was something odd about the two of them, and hence, he dared not interfere much. Anyway, he just wanted to know where he was.

“Oh, this place is the northern county of the Chen Nation, don’t you know?”

Taishang Xuanji asked curiously.

In the next moment, Su Changyu was dumbfounded.

‘Huh?’

‘Chen Nation?’

‘Northern County?’
