Chapter 727 744: Grandpa Su
Sophie rolled her eyes at Lin Mu, "C'mon, Grandpa has everything he needs to eat and drink, so what are you prepping for? Just go there!""Alright then, actually I've always wanted to visit him, but I've been too busy with business. How about we pay him a visit today!" Lin Mu said.
"Okay, let me call my grandpa, we'll head over right now!" Sophie said.
After speaking, Sophie took out her phone and called Grandpa Su! It seems it's only when she calls her grandpa that Sophie shows a girlish demeanor!
After hanging up the phone, Sophie called out to Lin Mu, and the two of them went downstairs together. Sophie didn't drive, nor did she bring anyone along, but directly got into Lin Mu's car as he drove towards the Su Family's house!
On the way, Lin Mu passed a mall and bought some gifts for Grandpa Su. It's the traditional courtesy of the Huaxia people; it's not polite to visit empty-handed, buying gifts for elders is a gesture of respect from the younger generation!
Since Lin Mu had only been there once after he got injured last time, he wasn't very familiar with the way. Fortunately, he had Sophie to guide him. Following Sophie's directions, Lin Mu drove into the mountainous area. The roads appeared to have been specifically maintained, and following the highway, Lin Mu arrived at a beautiful hillside manor from afar!
The place where the mountains and forests met, beside the water, was definitely an ideal spot for self-cultivation! Lin Mu parked the car at the entrance, where an old man dressed in a Qing dynasty long robe stood at the door!
Grandpa Su's health was robust, even though his hair was white, he was full of vitality, not inferior to a young man in his twenties or thirties!
"Grandpa!" Upon seeing Grandpa Su at the door, Sophie excitedly opened the car door and, like a little girl, hopped and skipped towards Grandpa Su. Sophie only sheds her queen-like aura and becomes a spoiled little girl when she sees her grandpa.
Grandpa Su was evidently very pleased to see his eldest granddaughter, his grin unable to be contained!
Lin Mu opened the car door, putting aside his usual carefree demeanor, and respectfully called out, "Grandpa Su!"
Don't be fooled by Grandpa Su's current old bones; back in the day, he was a well-known figure who dominated the business scene in Wancheng Beach, establishing a vast business empire!
Moreover, Grandpa Su's martial arts skills were quite impressive, something Lin Mu had heard mentioned by Old Lin. This Old Su was probably comparable to the old man at home!
"Ah, it's been a while, Lin Mu. You must have been busy lately, right? Haven't had time to see this old bag of bones!" Grandpa Su asked warmly as he looked at Lin Mu.
"Yes, Grandpa Su, I apologize, indeed I've been very busy lately!" Lin Mu said with a smile.
"Haha, that's alright. I hadn't seen enough of you last time when you came. Now I see more of that old Lin in you! Though in his youth, he was much more of a demon, but you're much more handsome than he is, haha!" Grandpa Su laughed, as if recalling fun times from his younger days.
"Haha, Grandpa Su has a keen eye indeed! Not many people praise my looks these days; you're truly my confidant, Grandpa Su!" Lin Mu said excitedly.
"Grandpa, don't be fooled by his appearance. He only looks all proper because of you, but normally, he's quite a rogue." Sophie said, holding onto Grandpa Su's arm.
"Haha, by the sound of it, he's even more like that old monster. That old monster was just like that back in the day!" Grandpa Su laughed, then invited them, "Lin Mu, come in, let's chat inside!"
"Alright," Lin Mu nodded and followed Grandpa Su into the villa.
I have to say, Lin Mu truly respected Grandpa Su. If there were people Lin Mu respected from the bottom of his heart, the old man at home would be one, and Grandpa Su would be the other!
"Lin Mu, have a seat!" Grandpa Su gestured towards the sofa.
"Thank you, Grandpa Su!" Lin Mu nodded and sat down.
"Ah, it's been five or six years since I last saw Old Lin. How is his health?" Grandpa Su asked.
"Rest assured, Grandpa Su, the old man, ahem, my grandpa is still quite robust." Lin Mu replied.
"Haha, that's a relief. That old fellow, I have to say, I do miss the times we had together!"
"Grandpa Su, how long have you known my grandpa?" Lin Mu asked.
"About forty or fifty years, I guess, quite a lifetime! You probably don't know, but we are sworn brothers!" Grandpa Su said.
Well, that's quite something, no wonder those two old guys have such formidable skills. Although there's a difference, one became a business magnate, the other a powerful figure in the underworld, completely different lives!" Lin Mu thought to himself.
Lin Mu nodded, "So that's what it is, no wonder I feel Grandpa Su is so similar to my grandpa; turns out you're sworn brothers for decades!"
Grandpa Su shook his head after hearing this, "I'm still far off compared to that old monster! Old Lin, that guy, is a super monster! His martial arts skills have always been ahead of mine, and he's a true martial arts fanatic, destined to spend his life fighting and battling!"
Upon hearing Grandpa Su's words, Lin Mu was also deeply moved, "Yes, completely different life paths. Now, Grandpa Su lives a free and leisurely life, while Master, that old man, still remains in the fighting and battles of the martial world. Different life pursuits, predestined divergent paths of fate!"
"Grandpa Su, I wonder if you could offer some guidance. To be honest, I'm currently at a bottleneck in my martial arts advancement, trying to break through, but unable to!" Lin Mu suggested.
"Haha, you kid, you're indeed a lot like Old Lin. Seeing you, I seem to see Old Lin back in the day; his obsession with martial arts was no less than yours. He always thought of ways to seek guidance from masters, pondering deeply and gradually breaking through bit by bit. Since we have time today, I'll give you a few pointers!" Grandpa Su laughed.
"Thank you, Grandpa Su!" Lin Mu quickly nodded in gratitude.
Afterward, Lin Mu and Grandpa Su went to the front of the villa's yard, the old and the young facing each other at the front!
Grandpa Su stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an airs of elegance like a hermit sage, possessing an impressive noble aura!
"Lin Mu, use your full strength; I want to test your foundation so I can guide you more specifically!" Grandpa Su said.
Lin Mu nodded, "Here I come!"
"Come on!" Grandpa Su, as stable as Mount Tai, gestured at Lin Mu.
Lin Mu gathered his inner strength, leaped forward, his body forming a phantom as he attacked Grandpa Su, knowing he was a master unworldly, thus holding nothing back and using all his strength!
