Shu Jianyue nodded and said, "I forgot, but you can't have forgotten too, can you? Why don't you come to Qionglai Peak to find me?"
"If you have any problems, I can help you solve them."
Gong Chengxi smiled and said, "Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle. I have been in seclusion recently, so I have not been able to visit Qionglai Peak. Please forgive me, Grandmaster Uncle."
Actually, he was too embarrassed to bother him; he was very clear about his position.
In other words, they knew too much, so they failed to seize the opportunity.
Otherwise, he could have trained under her guidance alongside Yun Zhongtian and Jie Yukong, and together they could have gone to even greater places.
Shu Jianyue hadn't thought of this, and only felt that she shouldn't have forgotten about him. "Cultivation cannot be rushed. Keep these bottles of Spirit Nourishing Pills safe. Consider them compensation for your grandmaster's failure to take care of you."
Gong Chengxi was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook his head and said, "Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle. You have already taken good care of me. How can I accept anything more from you?"
"Here you go, just take it." Shu Jianyue tossed several bottles of Spirit Nourishing Pills over.
Gong Chengxi quickly and carefully caught it, bowed to her, and then put it away, much to the envy of the elders.
Shu Jianyue said, "I will be leaving Bahuang in the next two days. If you need anything, just ask the Dean or go to the Cloud Sky Auction House and find the manager there. I will explain everything clearly."
Gongchengxi bowed again, "Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle, I understand."
Gu Pingsheng couldn't help but look at Gong Chengxi. Putting aside his relationship with Shu Jianyue, Gong Chengxi himself was quite talented and could be properly nurtured.
He secretly gave Hu Yang a wink.
Hu Yang nodded slightly, understanding his meaning.
When Shu Jianyue first arrived, she mentioned Gongchengxi, but unfortunately, after it was found, nothing more was heard of it. So they all assumed that the relationship wasn't very good, and they provided resources according to the normal system.
Now, it seems we need to make some changes.
Shu Jianyue nodded, unconcerned about their subtle misunderstandings. After giving Gongchengxi some instructions, she returned to Qionglai Peak.
Her actions were intended to help Gong Chengxi, and Shengshi Academy would likely provide her with some resources out of consideration for her.
She also left some for him; if he couldn't stand up and go further, then he could only stop here.
Shu Jianyue sent a telepathic message to the few young men who were out training, instructing them to take care of their personal matters and set off for Sihai in two days.
Then they arrived at the Cloud Auction House. No one was brought up to succeed Chaotian, and it was unknown whether he had found a suitable successor.
When Chaotian saw Yuchuan, he knew that the whole family had come up, so he accelerated the training of a successor.
He met this successor when he went to the palace to attend a banquet. He felt bored in the main hall, so he went out for some fresh air. Unexpectedly, he heard the Fifth Prince Yun Zhonglu talking eloquently.
After observing him for a few more days, testing his character, and evaluating everything, they finally agreed to let him be their successor.
Chao Tian never expected him to refuse, because with the reputation and strength of Yunxiao Auction House, who would refuse?
But Yun Zhonglu refused.
Even Lian Yunlan's intervention couldn't convince them.
He only agreed after Yun Zhongtian talked to him.
When Yun Zhonglu saw Shu Jianyue, his eyes lit up. “This beauty, please come in. The auction doesn’t start until 5 pm. You can come in first, have a cup of spiritual tea, and chat for a while.”
Shu Jianyue glanced at him and felt that he looked somewhat familiar.
I couldn't help but wonder, why do so many people look so familiar to me lately?
"Are you the new successor that Chaotian has found?" This demeanor doesn't seem like that of a waiter.
Yun Zhongtian raised an eyebrow. "There aren't many who dare to address Venerable Chaotian by his name directly. And who are you?"
"Could it be His Majesty?"
Shu Jianyue smiled and was about to speak when Chao Tian arrived, laughing, "Is this the successor you found?"
Chao Tian nodded, "Yun Zhonglu, Fifth Prince."
"Yun Zhongtian's younger brother?" Shu Jianyue looked at Yun Zhonglu, no wonder he looked familiar.
"Golden Core Stage 5, not bad. Keep up the good work, and once you break through to the Nascent Soul stage, you can travel to the Four Seas."
"Of course, as long as you work hard and don't limit yourself to one place, you can go to higher and farther places."
Yun Zhonglu was overjoyed. "Thank you, Your Excellency."
Fourth Brother broke through to the ninth level of the Golden Core stage in just a few years following the Venerable One, and he believed that he could too.
Shu Jianyue nodded and went with Chaotian to the private room that had been reserved for her.
"I plan to leave for Sihai in two days. Is he ready to take over?"
He shook his head. "I haven't given him the most important thing yet."
Shu Jianyue sat down and said, "Still don't you trust me?"
Chao Tian sat down next to her. "We're still observing him. After all, he hasn't been here long, and we don't dare entrust the auction house's foundation to him yet."
"Trust those you employ, and don't employ those you don't trust. If you don't trust someone, it's best not to employ them, lest it backfire." Who likes to work for someone who constantly doubts them? Even if they don't say anything for the time being, there's no guarantee they won't do something drastic later.
Chao Tian nodded, "Let me take another look. You guys go first, and I can go up after I've made the arrangements."
Shu Jianyue naturally had no objections. Chaotian always had his own ideas, and she always respected his own decisions.
"Do you have enough of what you need? If not, I'll give you some more."
Chao Tian thought for a moment and said, "Give me some more materials for the Spirit Gathering Pill. Before I leave, I'll make sure to get more Spirit Gathering Pills and try to keep him away from the materials."
The simple elixirs are sold at exorbitant prices, and the fewer people who know about them, the better.
Shu Jianyue nodded and gave him more than a hundred baskets.
After talking for a while, they found Yuchuan and took him back with them.
She had already told Gu Pingsheng that there was nothing else she needed to tell Shengshi Academy. They could set off once the five of them returned.
Upon receiving the letter, Yun Zhongtian immediately returned to the palace and told Yun Lan about his trip to the Four Seas.
Yunlan stood up in surprise. "We're going to the Four Seas already? Elder Shu said he'd take you all with him?"
Yun Zhongtian nodded, "Yes, they'll be leaving in a couple of days. They want us to come back and take care of some personal matters."
"Father, you'd better tell Zhonglu not to have any ulterior motives in helping Elder Shu, or the consequences will be something you won't be able to bear."
He had previously doubted Shu Jianyue's abilities, but now he was absolutely certain of them.
She said she was going to the realm of gods, so her destination must definitely be the realm of gods.
Yunlan rolled her eyes at him. "Do you think he's the only one who's stupid? Do you think I don't know about this kind of thing?"
"You've already said so much to him, and the fact that he's willing to go shows that he knows what's good for him."
"You just need to follow Elder Shu closely. You don't need to worry about things in the palace. With Father Emperor's cultivation, he can still hold out for many more years."
The same explanation was given in the Weapon Hall and the City Lord's Mansion.
When Hong Shunzhi learned that Hong Jinbao was going to Sihai with Shu Jianyue, his first reaction was not happiness, but worry.
I'm afraid this silly boy will go there and offend people without knowing the risks.
It was only after following Shu Jianyue that Sammo Hung's worries about him lessened, knowing that he had been diligently cultivating. Otherwise, as before, he would have secretly sent people to follow him.
Sammo Hung is too simple and honest; he doesn't mince words and is very straightforward.
