Chapter 483: The Matter of the Xu Family, Su Yu's Plan
Xu Ming's body crashed heavily to the ground.
His pupils still held a look of disbelief.
He could not believe that Su Yu would kill him.
He was, after all, the son of the head of the Xu family of Jiyuan City.
However, the fact was....
Su Yu did not care in the least about Xu Ming's status — or rather... he did not care about the entire Xu family of Jiyuan City.
Although Su Yu had currently only recovered to the second level of the Heaven Realm, with the top-grade stellar ore vein present, it would take two or three days at most.
Then Su Yu would be able to recover to the fourth level of the Heaven Realm.
By then, even if an expert at the fifth level of the Heaven Realm made a move, Su Yu would not fear them in the slightest.
When Su Yu was a Two-Step Sealed King, he already possessed the combat strength of a Four-Step Sealed King. And now that Su Yu had reached Four-Step Sealed King, although he had never crossed hands with a Five-Step Sealed King.
But Su Yu had fought against the Immortal Emperor before.
Going all out, Su Yu could even withstand a single strike from the Immortal Emperor.
Su Yu certainly did not believe that a Five-Step Sealed King — or someone at the fifth level of the Heaven Realm — could endure a single strike from a Great Dao Realm expert.
So, in Su Yu's view, the Xu family was nothing!
"Y-y-y-you!!!"
Xu Ming's subordinate stared at Su Yu in terror, his finger pointing at Su Yu and trembling incessantly.
His voice carried thick fear.
He truly had not expected that Su Yu would be so hot-tempered as to directly attack Xu Ming.
One had to know that Xu Ming's status was such that no one in all of Jiyuan City dared to provoke him.
Furthermore, Xu Ming's father had now become the head of the Xu family.
Even fewer people dared to make a move against Xu Ming.
"You killed the Third Young Master! The family head will not let you off!"
He let out a shriek and instantly turned to flee.
Li Fu's expression shifted slightly as he cautioned.
"Young Master, if this man escapes, the consequences will be endless!"
He looked at the fleeing figure with worry on his face.
Su Yu waved his hand slightly and said.
"He is merely at the second level of the Heaven Realm — how could he possibly cause any waves."
Li Fu was taken aback, his expression turning somewhat peculiar.
If he was not mistaken, when he and Xu Yourong had just rescued Su Yu.
Su Yu was only at the first level of the Heaven Realm.
Of course, at that time Su Yu was in a coma and his soul power had completely dried up.
So Su Yu's cultivation at that time was easy to see through.
But now it was different. Although Su Yu's cultivation had burned and dropped down.
Su Yu's soul power had not weakened at all.
It was still soul power comparable to the fifth level of the Heaven Realm.
Unless an expert at the Great Dao Realm stepped forward, no one could see through Su Yu's cultivation.
"Young Master, there is something you do not know. That man is a subordinate of the Xu family head. If you let him inform the Xu family head, you will be in trouble."
Li Fu explained to Su Yu.
Su Yu had saved him, and he did not want Su Yu to die at the hands of the Xu family head.
At this time, Xu Yourong also walked over, her face full of worry.
"Young Master, raising a tiger invites calamity. If this man escapes, he will surely tell my Third Uncle about today's events, and then you will be in trouble, Young Master."
"Although my Third Uncle's cultivation is not high, he is at the very least an expert at the fourth level of the Heaven Realm. I fear he may act against you, Young Master."
Hearing Xu Yourong's words, Su Yu grew interested and looked at the two of them, saying.
"What exactly are your identities? Would you be interested in telling me about it?"
Earlier, when they were in the carriage, Su Yu had overheard the conversation between them and Xu Ming.
But both sides had spoken rather vaguely, and Su Yu had not been able to deduce anything.
The only thing Su Yu could know was that Xu Yourong was a child of the previous head of the Xu family.
And the previous head had, for some unknown reason, perished. The position of family head had now fallen to Xu Yourong's Third Uncle.
Xu Yourong's Third Uncle was also a ruthless and merciless person. It seemed he was preparing to eliminate Xu Yourong for the sake of a spot in some palace.
Xu Yourong and Li Fu exchanged a glance. In the end, it was Li Fu who sighed and said.
"Young Master Su, you saved us, so there is no harm in telling you some things."
"The young lady is the daughter of the previous head of the Xu family, and also the child of the current Xu family head's eldest brother."
"The master's cultivation had reached the peak of the fourth level of the Heaven Realm, and he was regarded as the one most likely in recent years to become an expert at the fifth level of the Heaven Realm. But for some unknown reason, when the master went out once, he returned as nothing but a corpse."
"And on that outing, the master had gone together with the Third Master."
"The Third Master carried the master's corpse back on his back, severely wounded himself. We did not think too much of it at the time, only immersing ourselves in grief over the master's passing."
"But who could have known that after the master's burial, the Third Master suddenly announced that he would take over as family head. He even ruthlessly suppressed those on the master's side of the lineage."
"Making the young lady's situation extremely difficult."
Su Yu could clearly feel the sorrow in the hearts of both Li Fu and Xu Yourong.
Su Yu fell silent for a moment, then slowly spoke.
"What's the situation with the Azure Dragon Hall you mentioned earlier?"
Li Fu looked at Su Yu in surprise and said.
Then he sighed and said.
"It seems the young master is indeed not from around here; in the realm beyond heaven, aside from the most mysterious Central Immortal Domain, each of the four great domains in the southeast, northwest, northeast, and southwest has a top power presiding over it."
"Among them, the Vermilion Bird Palace guards the southern domain, the White Tiger Gate guards the northern domain, the Black Tortoise Sect guards the western domain, and the Azure Dragon Hall presides over the eastern domain."
"Originally, the Azure Dragon Hall, which presides over the east, would not interfere in the southern domain's affairs, but not long ago it suddenly announced that it would recruit some heavenly talents from the major cities of the southern domain to become outer disciples of the Azure Dragon Hall."
"Among the outer disciples, one will stand out and become an inner disciple of the Azure Dragon Hall."
"In Ji Yuan City, there is only one slot, and the three major families will each send a heavenly talent to compete; the victor will become an outer disciple of the Azure Dragon Hall."
"Even then, a steward of the Azure Dragon Hall will personally come to oversee it."
Su Yu looked at Li Fu in surprise.
"You also said Ji Yuan City has only one slot, so that slot isn't something the Xu family can decide, right? Why then does the Xu family head act against Xu You Rong?"
Xu You Rong sighed and said, "The Xu family naturally has no right to decide the slot, but the Xu family's quota for the competition is decided by the family's patriarch, my grandfather."
"I have already cultivated to the peak of the Earth Realm; looking over all of Ji Yuan City, I am among the top heavenly talents, and my third uncle wants his son Xu Ming to enter the Azure Dragon Hall, but since my grandfather has already decided to let me take the stage."
"So... my third uncle wants to kill me and let Xu Ming take my quota."
As she spoke those words, a hint of sadness clearly appeared on Xu You Rong's face.
Being hunted by one's own relatives, this feeling is truly hard to bear.
Su Yu listened and thus understood the whole story.
"Interesting."
Su Yu gave a faint smile.
"Miss Xu, let's make a deal."
Xu You Rong abruptly lifted her head to look at Su Yu, somewhat puzzled.
"Sir Su... what kind of deal are you talking about?"
Su Yu smiled lightly, "Your Xu family should have a place like a library pavilion, right?"
Xu You Rong nodded.
A library pavilion is an indispensable place for any faction, gathering many cultivation methods and martial techniques within.
Su Yu said with a smile, "Let me enter your Xu family's library pavilion, and I'll help you deal with your third uncle!"
Hearing Su Yu's words, Xu You Rong's delicate body trembled suddenly.
She looked at Su Yu in surprise.
Xu You Rong hesitated and said, "Sir Su, my third uncle is a fourth-level Heaven Realm expert, sir you..."
Xu You Rong felt a bit embarrassed, after all Su Yu had just saved them.
But Su Yu's cultivation level, which she and Li Fu both know, is only first-level Heaven Realm.
To deal with her third uncle, one must be at least fourth-level Heaven Realm.
Su Yu said lightly, "A mere fourth-level Heaven Realm is nothing; I ask, will you accept this deal or not?"
Su Yu's proposal actually has two purposes.
One purpose is to learn about the layout of the realm beyond heaven through the Xu family's library pavilion.
After all, I've just arrived; if people knew I came from the Myriad Races Continent...
Who knows what other trouble might arise.
As for the second purpose...
Ji Yuan City, as a city of the realm beyond heaven, moreover has a fifth-level Heaven Realm expert presiding over it.
It likely also possesses many cultivation methods; perhaps Su Yu could obtain some techniques and martial arts to remind him of the Great Wilderness Devouring Heaven Technique and the Nine Dragons Heavenly Blade.
Of course, Su Yu wouldn't take too many; he would only take those common martial techniques.
After all, it is still the Xu family's library pavilion; if I directly took their clan's secret techniques and synthesized them...
Su Yu estimates the Xu family will come after him desperately.
Xu You Rong hesitated a bit; to be honest, although Su Yu saved them, he has the strength to kill a second-level Heaven Realm expert.
But the gap between second-level and fourth-level Heaven Realm is like a chasm.
At that moment, Li Fu sent a mental transmission to Xu You Rong.
"Miss, agree to him!"
Xu You Rong looked at Li Fu; Li Fu gave her a glance and continued the mental transmission.
"Miss, Su Yu's origins are mysterious; although when we rescued him he was only first-level Heaven Realm, but just now when I circulated my cultivation, I found I could not see through Su Yu's cultivation."
"Such a person is either terrifyingly strong or has a terrifying background. I think as long as Sir Su says he'll help you deal with your third uncle, he must have confidence."
"Miss, we have no choice now; once we return to the Xu family, we will inevitably face the wrath of the third uncle."
"Perhaps... Sir Su can really help us!"
Hearing Li Fu's words, Xu You Rong immediately understood.
As a heavenly talent of Ji Yuan City, Xu You Rong's intelligence is naturally not weak.
Otherwise, her third uncle would not be so wary of her.
Xu You Rong took a deep breath and solemnly looked at Su Yu.
"Then everything... I'll entrust it to Sir Su."
Su Yu's mouth curled slightly: "A wise choice!"
The next day, under Li Fu's urging, a carriage slowly headed toward Ji Yuan City.
The servants of the convoy were all killed; Li Fu, a mighty third-level Heaven Realm expert, could only serve as the driver.
The other carriages were simply abandoned, after all there were only two people, so there was no need to bring that many carriages.
After a day's travel, the carriage slowly arrived beneath a majestic city.
It turned out to be Jiyuan City.
Inside the carriage, Su Yu continuously absorbed the energy from the top-grade star ore vein.
After a day, Su Yu's cultivation returned to the third level of the Heavenly Realm, which is the stage of three steps to enthronement.
With Su Yu's current cultivation, unless he encounters a peak fifth-level Heavenly Realm expert, no one can threaten him.
In Jiyuan City, there are only three fifth-level Heavenly Realm cultivators, and whether any of them are at the peak is questionable.
One could say Su Yu's cultivation now lets him walk sideways.
The carriage slowly passed through the gate of Jiyuan City.
The carriage bore the Xu family's insignia, so it didn't need to be inspected by the gate guards.
After all, in Jiyuan City, the Three Great Families are heaven!
Even the City Lord's Manor must give the Three Great Families face.
After all, the lord of Jiyuan City is merely a fourth-level Heavenly Realm cultivator.
Su Yu watched the scene before him and gave a faint smile.
"It seems the Xu family's influence in Jiyuan City is not small."
Su Yu took a quick look and noticed the carriage's peculiarity.
Xu Yourong gave a slight smile, "Sorry for the inconvenience, Young Master Su; the Xu family is one of Jiyuan City's Three Great Families and even has a fifth-level Heavenly Realm expert overseeing it."
"As long as it's not a major offense, the City Lord's Manor will turn a blind eye."
Su Yu heard Xu Yourong's words and couldn't help but sigh softly.
Heaven Beyond Heaven is indeed different from the Myriad Races Continent; here, the strong prey on the weak.
Although the Myriad Races Continent is the same.
However, in Daxia, there are still extremely strict laws, so feudal powers like Jiyuan City rarely appear.
Of course there are, such as the Yun family back then.
But they are ultimately still a minority.
However, the existence of Heaven Beyond Heaven was discovered by the ancient and primordial Human Race.
It's only natural that they lack modern thinking.
Su Yu also didn't pay much attention; as long as no one provoked him, he wouldn't go looking for trouble himself.
And as the carriage passed through the city gate, nearby, someone's eyes flickered slightly.
They quickly departed and finally arrived at the Xu family's estate.
In the Xu family manor, inside a huge conference hall.
A middle-aged man in splendid robes sat silently there, expressionless.
The entire conference hall was filled with a suffocating atmosphere.
Like a volcano about to erupt.
Soon, the person who had disappeared at the city gate quickly entered the conference hall.
"Family head, the Xu young lady's carriage has already entered Jiyuan City; they should be back soon."
This middle-aged man in splendid robes was none other than the head of the Xu family.
He was also Xu Yourong's third uncle!
Xu Xiaotian!
Xu Xiaotian suddenly opened his eyes, and a sharp light shot out from his pupils. gòйЪ. ōΓg
"He dares to come back!"
Xu Xiaotian roared angrily; he had received the news of his son's death the previous night.
Although he was furious in his heart, this matter was after all not something that could be brought to light.
Xu Xiaotian also didn't show it; he merely sent people to closely watch the city gate, so that he would know as soon as Xu Yourong's group's whereabouts were exposed.
Xu Xiaotian suddenly stood up and walked toward the main gate.
"My dear niece... it's you who forced me, your third uncle, to take action!"
After endless unconsciousness, Shi Yu suddenly jumped up from the bed. Please,
He took deep breaths of fresh air, his chest trembling.
Confused and bewildered, various emotions surged in his heart.
Where is this?
Afterward, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, only to become even more bewildered.
A single-person dormitory?
Even if he had successfully been rescued, he should now be in a ward.
And his own body... how could he have no injuries at all?
Filled with doubt, Shi Yu's gaze swept quickly across the room, finally settling on the mirror at the head of the bed.
The mirror reflected his current appearance, about seventeen or eighteen years old, quite handsome.
But the problem is, this isn't him!, read the latest chapter content free of ads
His previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties with extraordinary bearing, who had been working for a while.
And now, no matter how you look at it, this appearance is just that of a high school student...
This change left Shi Yu stunned for a long time.
Whatever you do, don't tell him the surgery was very successful...
His body and appearance had changed; this was no longer a matter of surgery or not, but of immortal arts.
He had actually completely turned into another person!
Could it be... that I've transmigrated?
Aside from the mirror placed at the bedside with obviously bad geomancy, Shi Yu also found three books nearby.
Shi Yu picked it up and looked; the title instantly left him silent.
Novice Beast Keeper's Essential Manual
Postpartum Pet Care
Guide to Evaluating Beast-Eared Girls of Different Species
Shi Yu:???
The first two books' names are still normal, but what's up with the last one?
Cough.
Shi Yu's gaze turned serious, he reached out, but his arm quickly stiffened.
Just as he was about to open the third book to see what it was, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a flood of memories surged like a tide.
I provide you with the god's puppet of high martial arts; I have a Synthesis Slot.
