Chapter 559
The followers dared not fail to take Su Wei's words back. The head of the Su family and the two elders present were speechless when they heard this. The matter could not stand up to scrutiny. Even they could not guarantee that Su Zeyang had no hand in Su Wei's disappearance. Su Wei, who always had a good temper, posed a difficult problem to the Su family this time.
After a while, the head of the Su family took a deep breath and said, "What do you think we should do about this?"
If Su Zeyang disagrees, Jiang Yue will definitely make a scene and involve the Jiang family, so what will the Su family do? Moreover, this matter will affect the reputation of the Su family. If Su Wei is not appeased, Su Wei will not return to the Su family, which will affect the reputation of the Su family in the eyes of others.
While the Su family was hesitating, Su Wei had already taken Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi to rent two caves in the city to stay temporarily. In fact, the Su family did not show up until they left the restaurant. Su Wei had already expected the result. He felt a little disappointed that the Su family was still hesitating at this time.
Before he fell into the Martial God Space, he was a person who put the interests of his family first. After coming out of the Martial God Space, he found that he might not be that important to his family, and his family could not always stand behind him.
Many forces and cultivators in the city knew that Su Wei had returned, and were all paying attention to him and the Su family. Su Wei arrived at the door of the Su family but left, and then rented a cave outside instead of returning to the Su family. This in itself was worthy of gossip among the cultivators.
Is there any need to say this? The Su family must have treated Su Wei badly. Even though he had disappeared for hundreds of years, many cultivators still knew what kind of person Su Wei was. It must be the Su family's fault that they had forced a good-tempered family member to not want to go back.
Gradually, rumors began to spread in the city, about what the conflict between Su Wei and the Su family was. The rumor said that Su Wei was in trouble because of his own nephew, who wanted to snatch Su Wei's fiancée. This rumor spread very quickly as soon as it appeared.
Along with this news, the Su family also sent people to the cave where Su Wei rented several times to ask for a meeting. Even Su's father and mother went there in person. They had to obey the orders of the head of the family. Unfortunately, Su Wei never showed up. He only asked someone to ask, "Have you sworn?"
No? Then go back and don't come back.
Su Wei in the cave did not seem to be disturbed. He was very interested in refining several furnaces of pills with Yuan Jing. Yuan Jing found that his aura was becoming more and more peaceful, as if nothing bothered him. Yuan Jing guessed that Su Wei had really let go of those things.
Of course, letting go does not mean forgiving Su Zeyang or agreeing with the Su family's approach, but that he has let go of the Su family. He will no longer be the family member who always puts family interests first, but has separated himself from the Su family.
Just when the Su family thought there was still room for easing the situation and were still working hard, Su Wei announced that he would go into seclusion. His cave was completely closed and he would not be able to get out unless he broke through. The head of the Su family was a little dazed when he received the news. So when would he be able to see Su Wei again?
Upon hearing that Su Wei was in seclusion, Su Zeyang was relieved. He was worried that the Su family would force him to come forward in order to persuade Su Wei to come back. Now that Su Wei was in seclusion, it meant that no one would force him to come forward.
The turmoil in the city seemed to gradually subside as Su Wei went into seclusion.
Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi lived their normal cultivation life, and interacted with cultivator Ding and cultivator Chen from time to time. Because of this relationship, and because they heard that Zhong Zheng had spread the word to protect the two, not many cultivators would make things difficult for them.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for the secret realm that Su Wei mentioned to open. Ding Xiuzhe helped them obtain the qualification to enter, and then the two of them ran into the secret realm.
Su Wei's cave is still in a closed state. No one can escape until he comes out. If an outsider wants to break in by force, it will cost a lot. Moreover, the force that rents out the cave is not weak. If anyone wants to break in by force, they will have to face the force behind it first.
Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi used a sleight of hand to enter the secret realm. This secret realm was passed down from ancient times and carried a desolate atmosphere. There were powerful wild beasts, rare Yuan plants, and even occasionally ancient treasures that had become extinct outside. Even the wild beasts inside, their flesh and blood were precious treasures for cultivators, and the higher the level, the better.
The two of them let go and trained in there without any restraint. No one knew them anyway, and they also got to know a few like-minded cultivators. Of course, they were also surrounded and killed by more cultivators because they coveted the rare plants and treasures they obtained, but they were able to escape from the encirclement calmly every time, and even fight back.
The two of them would never show mercy when dealing with cultivators who wanted to take their lives. There were tens of thousands of cultivators entering the secret realm this time, so during the half year they stayed there, the two of them had almost no peace.
The past six months have been extremely fulfilling for the two of them. In the blink of an eye, it was time to leave the secret realm. The two of them quietly waited to be teleported out of the secret realm. Yuan Jing leaned on Duan Linzhi and smiled, "I wonder how Senior Su is doing in seclusion. Do you think Senior Su can be promoted to Martial Master?"
Duan Lin held the person on his body with one hand and touched his chin with the other hand: "Su Wei's state of mind is the most down-to-earth. The hundreds of years he spent in the Martial God Space were not wasted. His cultivation level did not improve and even regressed a bit, but his state of mind improved a lot. Maybe this retreat can really help him break through to the Supreme level in one fell swoop."
When Su Wei just came out of the Martial God Space, he was a sixth-level Martial Emperor. However, when he just fell into the Martial God Space, he was an eighth-level Martial Emperor. He dropped two levels in hundreds of years, but when he was in seclusion outside the Qingyu Sect, his cultivation had recovered to the eighth level and had improved slightly. Coupled with the resources Su Wei had prepared for a breakthrough, he might really be able to make a breakthrough to become a Martial Lord.
Yuan Jing clapped his hands and laughed, "If Senior Su can be promoted to the Venerable, then the Su family will be the biggest joke. The Su family wants to have their cake and eat it too, but unfortunately, being too greedy may end up with nothing. I don't really understand the Su family's mentality. Senior Su is obviously the most promising talent in the Su family to be promoted to the Venerable, so why don't they invest all their resources in him to help him become a Venerable? Instead, they want to marry into the Jiang family to borrow external power?"
Duan Linzhi said: "Maybe the Su family felt that Senior Su's advancement was not that fast. The news that Senior Su's cultivation level regressed after he came out of the Martial God Space must have spread."
Yuan Jing blinked: "So they don't know that Senior Su's cultivation has recovered?"
Duan Linzhi smiled: "This shows that Su Wei was mentally prepared and did it on purpose."
Yuan Jing laughed: "If Senior Su is promoted to the Venerable right at the doorstep of the Su family, wouldn't the Su family become a laughing stock in the entire Tianmang Realm?" So this was intentional, or was it intentional?
It still takes some time to get out of the secret realm and rush back to the city where the Su family is. Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi are from the group of independent practitioners. There are also some high-ranking members of families and sects who stayed outside to receive these practitioners. There were obviously some abnormalities, and they hurried back after picking them up.
"What happened?"
"You don't know yet? News came from Hongtu City that someone is going to survive a catastrophe. That place is suspected to be the place where the Su family's alchemist Su Wei is in seclusion."
"Really? That's impossible. Master Sultan has only been back for a short time. Is his cultivation level high enough for the next level?"
"That's why so many people are rushing back to see what's going on. What are you waiting for? Once you go and see it, you'll know whether it's true or not."
Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi raised their eyebrows. They didn't expect to get the news that Su Wei was going to advance just after they came out. The timing was too coincidental.
Others still have some doubts, they don’t think there is anyone else besides Su Wei.
"Let's go back and take a look." The two of them happily hurried back as fast as they could. "All of them have become venerables. From now on, we can win without any effort, right? Haha."
Duan Linzhi squeezed Yuan Jing's hand in amusement, but he didn't believe that he would really stop trying and just wait to win.
However, this greatly reduced the pressure on them. Duan Linzhi didn't believe that no one coveted the Yuansheng Fruit on them. Zhong Zheng and Su Wei's successive breakthroughs would only make people believe more in the effect of the Yuansheng Fruit.
When they entered Hongtu City, they could already see the calamity clouds gathering above the cave they rented. Many cultivators had rushed to the vicinity of the cave and gathered there. Cultivator Ding came forward to take them over, and there were several other cultivators who had received the news and rushed over to protect Su Wei.
The cultivators who rented the cave here also came out early because of such a big commotion, and the formation of this area was also activated. It can be seen that the owner of this place has come out. He wants to lend a helping hand to Su Wei and gain a favor. If Su Wei successfully breaks through, he will get more than just a favor from a venerable master. Su Wei is also a genius in alchemy.
At this time, everyone was certain that the person who had undergone the tribulation was Su Wei, so Su Wei's reputation as a genius was brought up again. If Su Wei heard it with his own ears, he would probably be embarrassed.
"Look over there, the Su family is not slow, they came here a long time ago, but what's the point of coming here now? They don't look very happy."
Ding Xiuzhe pointed in a direction for Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi to see. The two looked over and saw a trace of regret in the eyes of the head of the Su family. Ha, regret it now? It is estimated that the Su family finally realized that Su Wei was able to successfully break through and advance this time because he got rid of something. It is extremely difficult to pick up the things that have been gotten rid of.
"That's the Jiang family's. They have sent people here early to guard the place." Ding Xiuzhe pointed in another direction.
Yuan Jing and Duan Linzhi had never seen anyone else from the Jiang family except Jiang Yue. As expected, the faces of the Jiang family members were rather gloomy. It was obvious that they did not want to see Su Wei advance, but they could not interfere with the heavenly tribulation in public.
When the first heavenly tribulation was about to fall, Su Wei finally appeared under the tribulation, looked up to face the thunder tribulation in the sky, and the voices of the onlookers became louder.
