Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1142: Chapter 1141: Let Nature Take Its Course

”What did you say?” The Director of Instruction suddenly grabbed Wu Daozi’s arm, ”What...what did you just say?”

”Su Yang, he can understand the content on the Bronze Seal Script!” Wu Daozi did not hide anything and repeated their conversation with Su Yang to everyone.

Yuan Tiangang took over, ”We felt that he was hiding a Bronze Seal Script, so we wanted to verify it. Unexpectedly, he really could understand the content on the script. Everyone should understand what this means!”

Everyone exchanged glances, they of course understood what that meant.

”Only one person could understand the content on the script!” The Director of Instruction said tremblingly, ”But that person has already fallen, how could there possibly be someone else who can understand the content on the script?”

”Do you think it could be that person reincarnated?” someone asked hopefully.

”That can’t be right,” Wu Daozi said, ”That person has fallen for over a decade, but Su Yang is almost twenty years old now, the ages don’t match for reincarnation.”

A wounded person asked softly, ”Could it be that he took possession of...”

”Stop talking nonsense, how could he do such a thing?” the others interrupted him directly, and the Director of Instruction said, ”Taking possession is impossible, too. If he had taken possession, he would have revealed himself already, why would he keep waiting? Also, we can’t feel his presence in Su Yang!”

”Then...then what is going on?” The wounded person said in shock.

Everyone was silent, they all wanted to know what was going on, too.

The old man looked towards Wu Daozi and Yuan Tiangang, ”What are your thoughts?”

The two exchanged a glance before Wu Daozi said in a low voice, ”I suspect that he might be a descendant of that person.”

”That’s impossible, he only has one descendant!” The Director of Instruction said directly, ”And we have all met that descendant. That person, sigh, it’s better not to mention it.”

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, that matter was known to all.

Wu Daozi chuckled and said quietly, ”Do you think he could have had an illegitimate child outside?”

”How can you say such a thing?” A wounded person immediately got annoyed, and the others looked at them angrily. That person was a highly respected being to them, and no one was allowed to insult him.

”I was just saying...” Wu Daozi quickly explained, ”Actually, what I think is that for now, we shouldn’t consider the relationship between this Su Yang and that person. Since Su Yang can understand the content on the Bronze Seal Script, it is an opportunity for us. Moreover, Su Yang’s talent is indeed very high, should we consider cultivating him?”

These words made everyone look up all at once, looking towards the leading old man.

The old man fell into silence and after a long while, he finally said in a low voice, ”How long will it take to cultivate another him? How long can we hold on?”

Everyone fell silent immediately. Yes, Su Yang had just broken through the bottleneck of The Sovereign. Would Qinghe Academy still exist by the time he grew up?

”At least it’s better than having no hope at all!” said Wu Daozi, ”Besides, Ye Jiansheng is also growing, isn’t he?”

Hearing the three words Ye Jiansheng, everyone’s mood lifted slightly. This was indeed the hope they’d held onto these years.

”I hope he can grow up before we can no longer hold on!” The old man sighed softly and said, ”Let’s do as Old Wu suggested, and give Su Yang some opportunities.”

Wu Daozi and Yuan Tiangang were overjoyed, for this was exactly what they had requested.

The Director of Instruction was somewhat worried and said softly, ”The Bronze Seal Script is crucial, if Su Yang can’t protect it, taking it back will not be easy.”

”The Bronze Seal Script is important, but the completeness matters, as well as whose hands it ends up in!” said the old man quietly, ”With no one able to understand it, even if many are taken away, it is meaningless as long as they are incomplete. Even if we only keep a single Bronze Seal Script, as long as they cannot complete the set, it is of no use.”

”But, we’ve spent so many years and finally collected so many Bronze Seal Scripts, this...” The Director of Instruction clearly felt reluctant.

”Having something we can’t use is no different from trash; it’s better to give it to someone who can use it!” the old man said softly.

The Director of Instruction slowly nodded and said in a low voice, ”Then, regarding the matter of selecting for the advanced class...”

”Let’s let nature take its course,” the old man waved his hand and continued, ”We can’t put our hopes on the Ten Great Sects anymore, they’ve already thought about breaking the agreement. No matter how good the talents we send them, they will find excuses not to help us.”

”That’s right!” The Director of Instruction nodded again, ”We’ll do just that. In the next few days, once the advanced class is settled, I will contact the Ten Great Sects and let them take the people away.”

...

Hu Xiexie pondered for two days before deciding to go to Jade Maiden Peak. After all, this was her only wish since childhood, especially after knowing that her mother was captured and taken back by the people from Jade Maiden Peak, she was even more eager to see it for herself.

She did not know what her mother’s circumstances were like in Jade Maiden Peak, but regardless, she had to see her mother. No matter what attitude Jade Maiden Peak held towards her, she must make this trip.

Su Yang’s choice was the same as Lü Donglin’s; he would not go to the Ten Great Sects, but chose to leave Qinghe Academy together with Lü Donglin.

Huo Qianfang also arrived at Qinghe Academy, and as Huo Yuanzhen had requested, she was to go to Thousand Snow Palace.

The day Su Yang left Qinghe Academy, Hu Xiexie and Huo Qianfang got thoroughly drunk. Hu Xiexie especially, grabbing Su Yang’s arm and crying like a person made of tears, made even Huo Qianfang feel embarrassed to stop her.

Su Yang was also quite emotional, he knew that this departure could mean forever. Jade Maiden Peak did not allow men to enter, and it was very difficult for those inside to leave.

However, Su Yang secretly vowed in his heart to enhance his strength. One day, as Huo Yuanzhen said, he would be able to enter Jade Maiden Peak, effortlessly kill his way out, and bring Hu Xiexie with him.

This woman who was willing to die for him, Su Yang would never let her spend the rest of her life in Jade Maiden Peak!

That night, Su Yang bid farewell to Hu Xiexie and Huo Qianfang and left Qinghe Academy together with Lü Donglin.

No sooner had they stepped out of Qinghe Academy than Su Yang was stopped by a group of people, led by the Third Elder of the Fang Family.

The Third Elder, upon seeing Lü Donglin, had an obviously uncomfortable expression, but still stepped forward and bowed, ”Master Su, my fifth uncle has requested your presence.”

”Fang Mingyuan?” Su Yang frowned and said coldly, ”What, does he plan not to ambush me and instead invite me over, to use the methods of an Earth Immortal to kill me?”

Previously, Fang Mingyuan had deceived Su Yang at the gates of Qinghe Academy and made a sneak attack on him from behind; this incident had already spread far and wide. Now, Fang Mingyuan’s reputation in Capital City was extremely poor, and with this remark, Su Yang was just fanning the flames.
