"What do you want?"

Su Cheng sat cross-legged at the tea table, casually pushing the tea that Shangguan Rou brought him aside; he wasn't thirsty.

Cheng Liang didn't care, but said seriously, "Let's talk. You knew this would happen, didn't you?"

Su Cheng picked up Yu Lan and placed her on his lap like a baby: "What are you referring to? If you mean the result of this competition, I really don't think anyone can be Qing Han's opponent."

Yu Lan didn't mind, letting Su Cheng put one arm around her waist and rub her head with the other.

However, Yu Lan seemed completely oblivious at the moment, nestled obediently in Su Cheng's arms like a child playing with a toy airplane, fiddling with her beloved butterfly knife.

"You've been to the Eastern Regions, so you know what's behind that black mist, right?"

"I know some things, but only a limited amount."

"The black mist is spreading, and although it is not very fast at the moment, it can no longer be ignored. Now, such black mist areas have also appeared in the Southern Region."

"What does this have to do with me? That black mist may spread throughout the world, but it will never obscure the Lingxian Palace."

Cheng Liang knew that Su Cheng was trying to gain leverage, but if it was a cooperation, he couldn't refuse to take any of it.

"You know what I'm talking about, I can help you."

“You are not a good partner. I prefer to cooperate with others, or not cooperate at all.”

Cheng Liang pursed his lips. If Shangguan Rou hadn't said something like "a true man can bend and stretch," he would never have done such a thing.

Moreover, in a sense, obtaining information about the black mist earlier would be very advantageous for him.

It should be noted that very few of the cultivators he sent out returned.

Is this what you wanted to see?

"I don't care."

Where are your disciples?

"Hehe, my disciple is quite obedient."

"You are all alone, with no ties to you, but what about them?"

Cheng Liang understood, of course, that this was the man's only weakness, and it was no secret.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have set his sights on Ye Qinghan and Li Shiyao.

"Cheng Liang, you are much more disgusting than I thought."

"I want more than you do, and the means I use are inevitable. You understand, don't you?"

"Shangguan Rou? Was this your idea?"

Su Cheng just stared at the woman in red who had been standing silently to the side for a long time, and she could guess what was going on.

Even if Cheng Liang had this intention, there needs to be a way to make things more convenient, right?

Besides Shangguan Rou, Su Cheng couldn't think of anyone else.

"Sect Leader Su is giving Rou'er too much credit. How could Rou'er possibly be in charge of Master's affairs?"

"Heh, do you think I should cooperate with him?"

"Rou'er believes that cooperation is entirely beneficial to Sect Leader Su."

Although Shangguan Rou sensed that something was wrong, she dared not think too much about it!

If it were anyone else, she might have thought that the other person had taken a liking to her, but Sect Leader Su, she didn't think so at all!

After all, Ye Qinghan is still a virgin, and with three stunningly beautiful women by his side, Sect Leader Su has not overstepped any boundaries!

"Is that so?"

“Obviously so.” Shangguan Rou said confidently, just as she had when they first met.

Su Cheng smiled. As expected of the original eldest disciple, he had clearly grown a lot after clearing his mind of all the junk thoughts.

"Let me guess, you've obviously already thought of how to answer, haven't you?"

"If Rou'er can understand such a simple principle, how could Sect Leader Su not know it? Sect Leader Su, please stop teasing Rou'er."

Su Cheng pulled his gaze back and looked at Cheng Liangdao again.

"The poisonous fog did not appear out of thin air, but rather appeared with an uncontrolled force; it was a harbinger of impending disaster."

"How did Senior Brother Su find out about this?"

"It is found in the ancient books left by the teacher."

Where is that ancient book now?

"You should know that you perished in the fire along with your teacher, shouldn't you? After all, you're the one who framed me for killing your teacher and then set the fire to cover up the crime, aren't you?"

"Back then, besides the teachers, there was only you and me in the academy. If it wasn't me, then who was it?"

"Then why can't it be you, Junior Brother Cheng?"

Meeting Su Cheng's fierce gaze, Cheng Liang realized he had gone off-topic.

"Let's not talk about that. What else do you know about the black mist?"

Su Cheng didn't want to argue about this with Cheng Liang, so he just said casually.

"That's enough for today. Next time, have someone else negotiate with me. I don't want to see you."

"Is it because of the teacher?"

Su Cheng glanced at Shangguan Rou beside him and sneered, "You're not even as good as your disciple; at least she doesn't lie through her teeth!"

"Are you trying to say it's me? It's been so long, and you still won't admit your guilt?"

Cheng Liang is getting angry too!

Su Cheng's talent is not as good as his, nor is his effort at all!

But the teacher just happens to like this senior student!

All the good things go to Su Cheng; he never gets a chance!

The teacher was so good to Su Cheng, yet Su Cheng killed him!

So many years have passed, the evidence is conclusive, Master was killed by his sword! But he refuses to confess!

"You seem to have lost your mind. What good would it do me to kill the teacher? And you're pretending to be stupid with me? Is that even meaningful?"

"That's why I wanted to know why you did that! Your teacher is so good to you!"

"That's why I say people like you are disgusting; you want to be a prostitute and also pretend to be virtuous!"

Su Cheng felt that if Shangguan Rou hadn't been there, Cheng Liang would definitely have confronted him!

The reason for performing such a clumsy act is simply to leave an impression of a good master in front of his disciples.
