Su Xian frowned and turned her gaze to the Daoist Family Saint Son.
Why are you stopping me? I have no grudge against you.
"Although this is Academy Tournament, you should understand that my target is Su Yu."
The Daoist Family Saint Son held a chess piece in his hand, his eyes deep, sitting cross-legged in the air, calmly saying...
"You cannot go there today; that is not something I can control."
Even if you, Canglan, win the championship, it doesn't matter.
"Because this Secret Realm is about to be sealed off, the world is about to change."
"We, the prodigies, are about to usher in a glorious era of chaos."
Su Xian frowned, somewhat puzzled.
Chaos? Blockade?
What's the meaning?
Isn't this Academy Tournament? Why is it being blocked?
Is something bad about to happen outside? That's unrealistic. Today is the Academy Tournament, and there are countless powerful figures outside. Even Evil Cults would dare to cause trouble.
The Daoist Family Saint Son's aura swirled around them, and a ray of white light enveloped the two of them.
"Su Xian, you are the second young master of the Su Family. If I'm not mistaken, you must be the older brother, right?"
Su Xian's hand holding the magic book trembled slightly, her eyes widened, and she whispered...
Who told you that?
"Could it be Su Yu?"
The Daoist Family Saint Son stood up, his eyes scanning the surroundings to confirm that all auras and observations had been blocked before he spoke, "No, it should be the former Su Yu."
"He's probably not that well-behaved boy anymore."
"It's your Su Family patriarch Su Hong!"
Su Xian's eyes dimmed, and she clenched her fists repeatedly, asking, "How did you know?"
The Daoist Family Saint Son walked up to Su Xian, and with a wave of his hand, a pure white, jade-like halo appeared behind them.
"Sit down, let's talk slowly."
At least for now, I have no hostility towards you.
Su Xian glanced at the Daoist Family Saint Son, hesitated for a second, and then sat down.
The two were silent for a moment...
The Daoist Family Saint Son slowly spoke, "Su Yu is a good person."
"His nature is not bad; he is worthy of the title 'Son of God'."
"But things are unpredictable, your Su Family... alas..."
Su Xian remained silent; he naturally understood what he meant.
After a few seconds of silence, he asked, "So now, is Su Yu still himself, or... has he been completely possessed?"
"Why are you stopping me here? At least let me see Su Yu, so I can find out if he's a human or a monster!"
The Daoist Family Saint Son shook his head, a white chess piece appearing in his hand, hovering in mid-air. His eyes lowered slightly as he said, "No... I cannot let you see him."
"This is not something I should be doing. My job today is to stop you from seeing him."
"He will be a crucial piece for the future."
"Whether he is still Su Yu or your ancestor."
"A chain of moves, if one link collapses, the whole game falls apart."
"I can't afford to gamble, and neither can my Daoist Family."
Su Xian stood up, and a faint blue light instantly shone around her.
His expression was unusually cold as he said, "Gu Changkong, I understand you have your reasons, but that's my family, my only family!"
How could I not go!
"His patriarch of the Su Family bullied me because of my weakness, suppressed me, and used my brother as a puppet. How could I not seek revenge?"
"My brother's fate is now unknown; he's completely become a puppet. If I don't save him now, it will be too late!"
Gu Changkong showed no joy or sorrow as he gazed at the pristine white world, his voice unusually indifferent.
"Your family is family, but with this broken promise today, the world will have countless more people like you."
I understand you, and I understand that I'm selfish.
But this is my fate.
"This is the last time our Daoist Family will struggle to save the world."
"We simply have different stances..."
Su Xian looked up, closed her eyes, and her body radiated intense energy.
His realm broke through at this moment.
It's been suppressed for a long time.
He had suppressed his emotions for too long. He had arrived in the Looking River Realm long ago, and his feelings had already begun to loosen when he was in the Ruined City.
Having received news of Su Yu in this Secret Realm, he had no choice but to break through. He understood that without reaching the Withered Sea Realm, it was impossible to fight against Su Yu or the Daoist Family Saint Son before him.
He slowly opened his pale blue eyes and spoke.
"Forbidden Spell Demon Armor."
"Forbidden Spell Divine Speed."
"Forbidden Spell Divine Strength."
In an instant~
Energy surged, and a gigantic tornado appeared in the sky, blotting out the sun.
Standing within the tornado, Su Xian remained indifferent. Cracks appeared on his face, and dark blue lines continued to emerge on his body. Energy gathered on his body, and a demonic armor was born.
He had already memorized these forbidden spells perfectly, just waiting for that moment in the Academy Tournament.
Now we have no choice but to use it ahead of schedule.
With a "buzzing" sound.
His figure had disappeared.
The Daoist Family Saint Son's expression didn't change much; he remained seated cross-legged on the halo.
The fingers slowly wrote the words, very slowly, extremely slowly.
But with each move he made, the surrounding space seemed to be separated by an invisible barrier.
He looked up at the sky and saw that figure.
"Su Yu, Su Xian, you two really look alike."
"But in order to embrace this new world, I had to take on this role."
"The chessboard is complete; this is my domain!"
In an instant, his body transformed into a white light that pierced through the world.
A flash of blue light appeared in Su Xian's eyes.
Without his knowledge, the whole world changed, with black and white intersecting.
Not far from him, Gu Chang'an, First Seat white Daoist robe, calmly watched him.
With a "bang".
Su Xian slammed her fist into the barrier in front of her.
He understood perfectly well that the Daoist Family Saint Son before him only wanted to trap him temporarily, and that everything here was consuming the energy within Gu Changkong's body.
We can wait for him to run out of energy, but that depends on whether he can afford to wait.
Gu Changkong looked calmly at Su Xian and said, "Half a day. You stay here obediently for half a day."
How about I let you go?
"Otherwise, if this continues, we will both be exhausted."
Su Xian was somewhat angry and slammed his hand directly on the barrier, but the barrier was like an iron wall, and no matter how hard he tried, it had no effect.
Even when he used magic, it was harmed in the slightest.
The two sat facing each other once again.
They only clashed once, and the result was back to square one.
Su Xian had even used his forbidden spells, but the person in front of him wouldn't fight back, and he was completely helpless.
Gu Changkong remained silent, sitting in the white world as if in a daze, while Su Xian sat in the darkness, gazing up at the dividing line between white and black.
His mind was also filled with many thoughts.
Suddenly Gu Changkong spoke up.
"Li Chen, you should know him, right?"
Su Xian ignored it and didn't respond, instead continuing to look up at the sky.
Gu Changkong remained silent...
The two waited silently in this space, one of them forced into it.
