This isn't some weird tea that promises you'll fall in love with Shiyao tea; this is a proper tea, and you'll only find it delicious after drinking it.
However, Cang Jue still carefully checked several times before hesitantly took a small sip, then quickly looked inward to see if there were any changes...
"Uh, Shiyao and the others aren't here, and Yulan went out to play too. It's just me and Miaomiao in Lingxian Palace."
While explaining, Su Cheng picked up his teacup and took a sip, then prepared to get down to business with Cang Jue.
"Hiss... This really is proper tea."
Su Cheng curled his lip: "Otherwise what?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, if I'd known it was proper tea, I wouldn't have come." Cang Jue slowly put down his cup, rolled his eyes, and muttered under his breath...
Su Cheng was somewhat helpless, after all, Cang Jue had said it to her.
So, Su Cheng briefly explained his thoughts to Cang Jue, which was to hold a grand martial arts competition for cultivators of unprecedented scale.
Whether you belong to a sect or are a freelance cultivator, you can participate.
First, preliminary rounds will be held in each state. Those who rank higher can participate in the competition in the four regions. Finally, the winners of the four regions will compete in Lingxian Mountain to determine the ultimate winner.
Cang Jue could understand all of this; after all, she just looked like a child.
However, what intrigued Cang Jue was: "What benefit do you get from this?"
Clearly, Su Cheng hadn't expected Cang Jue to ask that question, and he was stunned upon hearing it.
"Isn't it obvious that there's no benefit to it?"
Upon hearing this, Cang Jue pondered for a while before refilling his cup of tea.
Based on Cang Jue's understanding of Su Cheng, Su Cheng wouldn't do something thankless; if he did act this way, there must be a reason.
"Is it something I'm not allowed to know?"
Cang Jue had a calm expression, as if he had accepted his identity. It was the kind of expression that showed he was unhappy but pretended to be fine.
However, the act wasn't convincing, and Su Cheng saw through it at a glance.
“In the future, the appearance of dead lands will become the norm. Even though the Four Domains and the Immortal Alliance have made some progress, it is still far from enough.”
"My disciples are not what they used to be; they are all..."
Cang Jue nodded, indicating that there was no need to explain it so clearly; she wasn't stupid.
"Then why not just have the young ladies do it? Given their status in the Four Regions, they should be more adept at handling this kind of thing, right?"
“I did not tell them about this. They are currently in a critical period of cultivation, and I have strictly forbidden them from interfering in external affairs.”
"Moreover, I believe that Master has things to do, and disciple has things to do."
"As your master, I only need to do my job and be responsible for creating momentum. Qinghan and the others are smarter than monkeys, so I don't think I need to remind them."
"If they can't even see the current situation clearly, and I have to remind them of everything, and I can't even eat the meal I've prepared, then what's the point of all this trouble?"
Cang Jue seemed to suddenly realize something; she really hadn't expected Su Cheng, who seemed to be idle all day and acted on a whim...
That makes sense; Su Cheng has indeed gone to great lengths to care for these precious disciples.
"Heh, in the end, isn't it all about these ladies?"
Su Cheng sneered and curled his lip, unconvinced.
"That's for sure. Otherwise, what would this world have to do with me?"
Cang Jue didn't reply, but just smiled along with Su Cheng.
This time, Su Cheng clearly didn't see what Cang Jue was thinking. What seemed like a perfectly normal thing to Su Cheng, even a matter of course, left Cang Jue feeling empty inside.
It has nothing to do with him...
Cang Jue really wanted to ask, "What about her?"
However, as Xiao Ai once said, many things can only be said with a certain status.
She? She's just an unlucky idiot. She's not as clingy as Yu Lan, nor as lucky as the other young ladies.
"Suzhou?"
"Um?"
"fine."
Cang Jue picked up his teacup thoughtfully and drank it all in one gulp. He then poured himself another cup and stared blankly at it.
"Do you think there's a problem?" Su Cheng asked, seeing that Cang Jue hadn't spoken for so long and hadn't said whether he agreed or not.
Cang Jue sneered inwardly. A question?
How could there be a problem?
"No problem, I'll contact Siyu later and have them do the publicity and preparation work."
Cang Jue readily agreed, after all, Su Cheng's plan was already quite mature.
Suzhou has even planned out the different competition subjects for each state and county, so that every participating cultivator can give full play to their strengths.
Naturally, this was also to select suitable candidates for the four disciples.
However, Cang Jue hoped that Su Cheng would also have feelings for her.
Instead of wishing her to get lost when they don't need her...
Su Cheng has always been like this. Cang Jue felt that, at least as an elder of Lingxian Palace, she should receive the same treatment as Yu Lan, right?
Su Cheng's feelings for Yu Lan were not like hers. Although she certainly couldn't emulate Yu Lan's personality, but...
She felt it was unfair, and she hoped that the man in front of her could also make room for her in his heart.
Hiss... wait a minute...
Why is it so hot?
Cang Jue was lost in thought when he noticed something was amiss!
Cang Jue then looked at Su Cheng with an incredulous expression, and then at the teacup in his hand.
"Suzhou!"
"Um?"
"You son of a bitch!"
