Su Tu thought this way, then changed his clothes and walked out of the Cultivation Room. He habitually arrived outside his master's inner chamber.

But he did not enter.

His master had not emerged from seclusion. He could feel powerful waves of the Power of Destruction surging within the inner chamber.

As if it turned the inner chamber into an abyss of destruction, yet within the abyss, an extremely exuberant Life Force was erupting, dazzling as a newborn sun.

Su Tu merely sensed it with his Heart and Spirit and felt a rush of heat.

The corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, feeling truly happy for Elder Zhou from the bottom of his heart. Elder Zhou's Life Fire is not only flourishing but his Cultivation has greatly increased—an immense blessing indeed.

After confirming the situation of his master, Su Tu planned to leave.

Just as he turned around, a face full of black mist was right in front of him.

For all that, Su Tu seemed oblivious and intended to keep walking.

The figure in the black mist then directly spoke: "You really act quite well; I almost believed you genuinely couldn't see me. Care for a chat?"

Upon hearing this, Su Tu's eyes, initially unfocused, suddenly refocused on the figure in the black mist.

Su Tu indeed could see him now, but he had promised his master to pretend not to see him before, so he had been acting.

Even as the face of the figure in the black mist was right up against him, he could still appear as though he couldn't actually see him.

Originally, Su Tu planned to continue pretending not to see the figure and leave, but the figure in the black mist actively asked to chat, and Su Tu was very curious about him, so he stopped acting.

"Misty Elder, your Heart and Spirit are truly resilient; had you not spoken, I would not have noticed your presence."

Su Tu spoke with his fists clasped, showing considerable respect towards the black mist figure.

This respect was due to Elder Zhou; this figure in the black mist was practically inseparable from Elder Zhou, guarding outside the inner chamber since Elder Zhou began seclusion, which showed their close relationship.

"Come on, kid, you're like a prodigy, I'm convinced. When old Zhou said don't let you find out, I thought it was impossible."

"In front of you, I'm deliberately concealing myself, and even then you can notice me; this isn't about the height or depth of Heart and Spirit, it's about Status…"

The black mist figure said in a deep tone.

Upon hearing the word Status, Su Tu's gaze could not help but change; Heart and Spirit Status are about identity, standing, related to the divine hierarchy of Immortals. For this Misty Elder to speak such words, he surely is remarkable.

"Sit~"

The misty figure said with a light wave of his hand, instantly the black mist condensing in the void, transforming into two Master's Chairs.

Seeing this scene, Su Tu's eyes tightened; creating items from thin air, such techniques were unheard of!!

Su Tu could ascertain that this black mist figure was not using spatial techniques to move two Master's Chairs here, but rather creating them from nothing, such methods are a bit too astonishing.

The black mist figure sat on one Master's Chair, his posture and appearance bore a resemblance to Elder Zhou. His gaze swept over the 'Seven' character outside the inner chamber door.

He tapped the other Master's Chair with his hand and spoke again: "Sit, after old Zhou, I reckon I'm something like your uncle-master; surely you won't make me beg for you to sit?"

The black mist figure spoke like an old witty person.

Su Tu did not mind, after all, he had heard much chatter between the black mist figure and Elder Zhou, often exchanges in banter.

The previous words were already quite diplomatic.

"Elder, then I won't be polite."

Su Tu said, then sat down on the other Master's Chair.

"Little Tu, I call you that, you don't mind?" The misty figure spoke.

Su Tu replied: "Elder and my master are close friends, both are my elders, how you call me is entirely up to you, elder."

"Good, Little Tu, this time thanks to you; if it weren't for you, given old Zhou's previous condition, he wouldn't have made it through this year."

Hearing the black mist figure's words, Su Tu's gaze trembled slightly, he knew before that Elder Zhou's life was perilous but didn't realize the situation was so dire.

Elder Zhou's Life Fire had weakened to such an extent, fortunately, by chance, he entered the Other Shore, otherwise, Su Tu dared not imagine what could have happened.

Though farewell is commonplace, this kind of farewell, Su Tu unwants.

"Elder need not say such; my master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain, he spared no effort for me, paving various paths in advance. Elder Zhou is not only my master but my family in my heart."

"Among family, there's no need for thanks."

Su Tu spoke.

Upon hearing these words, the misty figure couldn't help but closely observe Su Tu, although his face was shrouded in mist, only a pair of eyes visible, through those eyes, Su Tu could feel the appreciation.

"No wonder old Zhou is so fond of you, you truly are an endearing child."

Hearing these words, Su Tu's lips lightly pressed; he didn't speak but gently smiled.

Yet within Su Tu's heart remained several questions, truthfully, previously Xiao said to revive the Dao Lineage, help Elder Zhou restore his morale, only then could the master survive.

But based on Su Tu's perception, Elder Zhou's vital energy was deteriorating, True Qi dispersed, a sign of extreme injury; in such a case, the best remedy should be medical diagnosis.

However, after Su Tu revived the Dao Lineage in the Other Shore, a presence belonging to Elder Zhou emerged in the thatched cottage, thereafter Elder Zhou's old injuries healed, his life rapidly improved.

All these events left Su Tu somewhat puzzled, unclear about the connection between the two.
