Chapter 524 - 443: Su Yuan: At My Most Lost, There Were Only a Cold 30 Billion in My Account (3K)
Before Su Yuan made the decision to return to Blue Star, Taibai Yuxi, Ye Muyu, Taibai, Long Bai, and those Evil Extermination University students who went to Cold Plum World for training had already returned first.
Even though the war in Celestial Law World raged fiercely, it did not affect the commencement of Blue Star’s local universities.
Those remaining in Celestial Law World, aside from An Xingran and Wu Luo True Monarch, were only the executors of the Mai Gou plan, including Su Yuan.
Once Su Yuan decided to leave, there would be no need for them to stay either.
After all, the Mai Gou plan had been completed to perfection, and Celestial Law World had fully fallen into the hands of the Blue Star Federation.
Unfortunately, if the Abyssal Shadows within are not eradicated, the Federation would not be able to send a management team to reform the world’s oppressive atmosphere and system.
However, after some discussion, An Xingran decided to stay temporarily in Celestial Law World to oversee.
She stayed simply to look after each other with Gui Yuan, preventing an ambush by the Venerable of Immeasurable Calamity.
Neither of them had been vaccinated.
On one hand, Gui Yuan’s shadow was following the clone of the Venerable of Immeasurable Calamity, and if vaccinated, the fake Saint Law Celestial Monarch would die instantly, exposing the secret Su Yuan had painstakingly concealed to the Venerable of Immeasurable Calamity.
On the other hand, even though Su Yuan desperately added external aids to himself, he couldn’t form the shadow of a Divinity Transformation Cultivator.
To compare oneself to the divine with a mortal body?
Impossible.
Therefore, neither Gui Yuan alone nor An Xingran alone would be safe guarding Celestial Law World.
Only by the two Divinity Transformation Cultivators cooperating and guarding each other could Celestial Law World be secured.
Thus, after ruthlessly leaving the two young girls behind, Su Yuan and his companions boarded Captain Zhang’s Observation Law Ship, enjoying hotpot and singing all the way towards the Blue Star Federation.
The fellow travelers also included Motis, who originated from Celestial Law World.
Su Yuan had promised her to take her to see Blue Star, and he wouldn’t break his promise.
After three days of navigation, Wu Luo True Monarch activated the teleportation array, allowing them to step onto the land of Ten Immortals City on the morning of the fourth day.
Near the University City of Evil Extermination University, Su Yuan set foot on the ground, gazing at the towering skyscrapers, bustling traffic, and modern metropolis before him, nodding with satisfaction.
"Back, finally back!"
Chen Nuoyi, Qi Hanyan, and others also wore relaxed expressions on their faces.
Motis, looking at the completely new scenery before her, widened her eyes, letting out a low gasp of awe.
"Su Yuan, we’re heading off first. Have a nice chat with your mayoral wives."
Xuan Haoran waved at Su Yuan, his tone full of teasing.
After speaking, preemptively knowing he’d likely get beaten up, he vanished in the blink of an eye.
Leng Qianliu and Zhu Tianqing also greeted Su Yuan and headed towards their respective schools.
"Nuoyi, Hanyan, take Xiaomo for a walk first; I have something to discuss with Su Yuan alone."
Wu Luo True Monarch said to his biological daughter and two goddaughters.
Hearing this, Su Yuan, who had been sighing deeply, suddenly tensed up.
This... what is Senior Wu Luo planning by sending Nuoyi and the others away?
With them gone, it would just be him and Senior Wu Luo left! Is he preparing to settle accounts with me?
Damn Xuan Haoran, would it kill you not to mention "mayoral wives"? You’re really causing me trouble.
"Master, we’ll head off first..."
Seeing the atmosphere wasn’t right, although Chen Nuoyi wanted to persuade her master, she felt that intervening might worsen things.
She only gave Su Yuan a "survive well" look before leaving with Qi Hanyan and Motis.
After the three girls walked away, Su Yuan, feeling as if he was on death row, finally heard Wu Luo True Monarch’s first words.
"Su Yuan, are you sure the Ten Immortals City has the opportunity you need for breaking through?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yuan finally relaxed.
Great, he wasn’t here to settle scores, just to talk business.
This makes it easier.
As for the existence of the Primordial Dao branch in Ten Immortals City, Su Yuan hadn’t told anyone but vaguely mentioned that the city might hold his opportunity for a breakthrough.
But Wu Luo True Monarch knew exactly what kind of Essence of the Great Dao Su Yuan needed to break into the Nascent Soul Stage, even if he didn’t say it.
With Wu Luo True Monarch’s wisdom, she’d naturally first realize that the appearance of the Primordial Dao branch in Ten Immortals City might relate to the Venerable of Immeasurable Calamity’s plans.
Su Yuan thought for a moment and replied:
"As a cultivator of the Primordial Dao, I have a certain sense of opportunities related to myself and can basically confirm it."
"However, I can only pinpoint the opportunity to be within Ten Immortals City, no more precise than that."
"Therefore, my return to the Blue Star Federation is mainly for two things: to find a trustworthy Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarch, and to find the whereabouts of that opportunity."
Wu Luo True Monarch raised her hand and lightly patted Su Yuan’s shoulder:
"Taking on so much responsibility, you have truly grown."
"I can’t help much with the opportunity matter, but I’ll do my best for the other one."
"As far as I know, there are two Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarchs currently close to Blue Star Federation’s mainland, and they should arrive within three days."
Su Yuan nodded: "I will prepare."
Wu Luo True Monarch’s lip curled into a smile, adding:
"I forgot to tell you, among these two Divinity Transformation Cultivators, one is returning specifically to find you, abandoning her work to fly back. Do you want to know who she is?"
Seeing Wu Luo True Monarch’s delighted smile, a sense of danger suddenly arose in Su Yuan’s heart.
He asked with bated breath: "Wh-who is it?"
Wu Luo True Monarch: "The founder of Star River University, the leader of the Star River Dao Sect, the top figure in Federation Daoist Technique, the Star River Daoist Lord."
"Of course, she has another identity... Hanyan’s paternal mother."
Su Yuan: "..."
Too many people here, I can’t stand it.
I’m going to cry out of fear!
"Senior Su, I suddenly feel that the task of checking whether the Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarchs have been swapped isn’t so urgent. Maybe you should let Senior Star River go back first."
Su Yuan said with a bitter face.
Wu Luo True Monarch continued with a smile, as if he hadn’t heard:
"Oh yeah, she has one more identity."
"I remember I told you before, I, the Star River Celestial Monarch, and Nuoyi’s ancestors were close friends."
"She’s long wanted to thank you in person for taking such good care of Nuoyi. Finally, she can fulfill her wish."
"So, are you also looking forward to the historic meeting in three days?"
Su Yuan: "No..."
"Hmm?"
Su Yuan: "I don’t dare not to look forward to it..."
Wu Luo True Monarch again displayed a satisfied smile, waved at Su Yuan and said:
"These three days, get some rest, go have some fun early if you want to. In three days, I’ll see you at Evil Extermination University."
After saying that, this red-haired lady shook her figure and disappeared on the spot, leaving Su Yuan frozen and at a loss.
After an unknown period, Su Yuan’s long-lost signal-receiving phone rang.
He numbly picked up the call and heard Chen Nuoyi’s concerned inquiry:
"Su Yuan, has the master left? She didn’t trouble you, did she?"
Su Yuan was silent for quite a while, until the other end of the line sounded a bit anxious, then he spoke dryly:
"Nuoyi, I might have only three days left to live."
"Huh?"
...
Even though Su Yuan foresaw that he would meet his end in three days, it wasn’t a physical death, just a social one.
So life must go on.
At the very least, he should enjoy these last three days properly.
Aside from soon meeting the parents, that big reimbursement of Federation Coins from the Mai Gou plan was indeed comforting.
Of course, not all was reimbursed, just a mere three hundred billion.
Now this cold three hundred billion lay in Su Yuan’s account, waiting for his attention.
As the saying goes, wealth not shared at home is like wearing brocade clothes at night.
Su Yuan decided to visit his hometown, Taihua City.
He still had some scores to settle with the Chen Family.
Ten hours later.
A massive and imposing ten-meter long Flying Ship, full of luxury, landed in front of Evil Extermination University’s girls’ dormitory.
At the moment the Flying Ship landed, it immediately attracted curious and surprised looks both inside and outside the dormitory.
"Could this be the legendary Flying Ship made by the legendary sect, Lao Temple, the brand new extended version Phantom?"
"Wow, looking at the details, it seems to be a fully equipped Phantom. The landing price must be no less than a billion. Which young master came to our university to flirt?"
As the surrounding students were discussing, the door of the Flying Ship slowly opened, and a young man wearing sunglasses, covered in glistening gold, walked out from the driver’s seat.
An aura of nouveau riche emanated strongly from him.
Yet, even though the young man wore sunglasses, many people recognized him at first glance.
"Su Yuan? Has he finished his retreat?"
"Such a strong presence... something’s off, this guy seems to no longer be a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, could he have reached Core Formation!"
For a moment, discussions flared up incessantly, and Su Yuan’s personal flair quickly overshadowed the value of the one-billion Federation Coins luxury Flying Ship beside him.
"Nuoyi, Su Yuan’s outfit is quite tasteful."
From the dormitory window, Qi Hanyan gazed at the golden Su Yuan below, her eyes full of stars.
She turned around and said to the blue-haired girl beside her who was covering her face with a sigh:
"Su Yuan seems to be looking for you, you should go down quickly and not keep her waiting."
"This outfit can’t possibly be associated with good taste."
Chen Nuoyi weakly retorted and then asked:
"Aren’t you going down to take a look?"
Qi Hanyan shook her head, smiled, and said:
"I just made an appointment with Xiaomo to play cards."
"Hehe, the three of us, Motis, Little Red Riding Hood Xiaomo and I, playing Fight the Landlord, will surely be lots of fun."
Chen Nuoyi was silent for a few seconds and then said:
"Be careful not to get partnered up against by the two Xiaomos."
"Su Yuan and I will go to Taihua City, and when we’re back, let’s play together."
