After walking out of the hall, Mu Qingling looked somewhat confused, unsure Items what had happened.
After returning to the Courtyard, Mu Qingling told Su Chen what had happened.
"In that case, I'll go too. There's still half a month left of the originally agreed-upon one-month period."
Su Chen spoke calmly and casually.
He came out to take on apprentices and travel around on the side, so he wasn't worried about wasting time.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Mu Qingling's face was filled with joy.
When she told Su Chen, it was almost a farewell, because in Mu Qingling's view, if she went to Cangyun City, Su Chen would most likely not go with her.
After all, Su Chen wasn't his follower.
Therefore, Mu Qingling felt that their fate had run its course.
However, after hearing Su Chen's answer, Mu Qingling's hope was rekindled.
With just over ten days left, she had to make the most of that time.
However, after spending time together, Mu Qingling was also somewhat confused about Su Chen's thoughts.
She didn't know what Su Chen's requirements were for accepting disciples.
At first, Mu Qingling thought that Su Chen valued talent, but later she realized that Su Chen didn't care about that at all.
Could it be his character?
Or is it something else?
Mu Qingling was filled with doubt.
Time flies.
The next day, early morning.
The Mu Family members gathered at the entrance, preparing to head towards Cangyun City.
When they saw Su Chen next to Mu Qingling, their expressions were somewhat strange, even though they all knew that Mu Qingling would never keep Little White.
But recalling what Zhao Rong had said earlier, they couldn't help but think in that direction.
Mu Hua stepped forward, cupped his hands, and said, "You have been visiting my Mu Family for many days, but I have not been able to pay you a visit. Please forgive me."
May I ask who you are?
Su Chen's aura was completely concealed, and one could not sense any Cultivation Level at all. This meant that either the person's strength far surpassed his, or they had no Cultivation Level at all.
Su Chen said calmly, "Just a wanderer."
Mu Hua frowned slightly. Was this person not planning to tell him about their origins?
Although Mu Qingling's Cultivation Level is not weak, she is still relatively young and has not experienced the harsh realities of human nature. Could she have been deceived by the person in front of her?
Judging from Mu Qingling's previous statements, this person should at least be at the Void Refinement stage Cultivation Level. So why would someone like that be so low-key?
The strange occurrences made Mu Hua somewhat uneasy.
The Mu Family is already in dire straits, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble, but seeing Mu Qingling's humble demeanor, he restrained himself and didn't say anything more.
Mu Qingling's position in the Mu Family is now very important, so let's just go with the flow.
Mu Hua smiled, then said nothing more and led everyone towards Cangyun City.
Su Chen naturally followed along.
Through his observations over this period, Su Chen discovered that Mu Qingling was actually a very ordinary girl, at least compared to him, she was truly very ordinary.
Both his personality and habits are extremely mediocre.
However, there was one thing about her that greatly attracted Su Chen.
Reliable!
There's a certain quality to Mu Qingling Certain; she'll do everything in her power to accomplish anything assigned to her.
She is responsible and has a strong sense of duty. Although she is a woman, she has the same spirit as a man, and in many ways, she is no less capable than a man.
She is very suitable to be the Eldest Senior Sister of the Lingxiao Sect because she can set a good example.
Su Chen didn't plan to take on too many Disciples for the Lingxiao Sect. He intended to focus on high-quality disciples, as having a reliable and stable large world would be better.
Therefore, Su Chen had a slight thought in his mind: why not just take Mu Qingling as his disciple first?
The other Disciple can search for it gradually.
However, there were still two weeks left, so Su Chen wasn't in a hurry.
Within a day, the group arrived at the Imperial Palace in Cangyun City.
Su Chen had always been like a nobody, following the Mu Family around. If it weren't for Mu Qingling occasionally talking to Su Chen, everyone would have almost forgotten that Su Chen even existed.
Inside the Imperial Palace.
The Mu Family members were all housed in a Palace by the Imperial Family.
The Cangyun Empire has only been established for about fifty years, and its strength is only so-so.
Therefore, the Imperial Palace was not magnificent; on the contrary, it looked extremely ordinary, at least compared to other powerful empires, the difference was too great.
They rested for a day, and at noon the next day, His Majesty Cangyun began to summon them.
Mingyang Hall.
There were already quite a few people inside, all of whom were from the top forces in the Cangyun Empire, and were mostly experts at the Nascent Soul Realm stage or above.
Two people sat at the very top: the king of the Cangyun Empire and an ordinary-looking Middle-aged Man.
"It's such a small matter that you had to make a special trip for Steward Su. Next time, just give me a call, and I'll immediately send you information about the Cangyun Empire's strength."
Cangyun King's expression was extremely humble, almost like that of Servants.
There was no other reason than that the person standing before him was the Steward of the Su Family of the Jinghong Empire, who had come to their Cangyun Empire to assess the strength of their forces.
The Su Family is now the king of the Eastern Domain, with immense power. It's normal for them to be humble in front of them.
Su Yu smiled faintly and said no more. He glanced at the people in the hall, his eyes utterly calm.
He came to the Cangyun Empire on the orders of the Su Family to conduct a census of the forces in this area. He needed to know roughly how many Nascent Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Stage forces there were in the Cangyun Empire, and then report the situation back to the Su Family.
Seven Nascent Soul Stage and thirty-five Nascent Soul Realm —this is the overall strength of the Cangyun Empire.
Within the entire Eastern Domain, the Cangyun Empire is considered relatively weak.
Su Yu then asked, "Didn't you say that the Cangyun Empire also had a Nascent Soul Stage force? Why haven't I seen it?"
Cangyun King was taken aback. Before he could speak, Lin Yun'er, who was standing to the side, took over the conversation and said:
"My lord, the Mu Family only has Mu Hua, who Deity Transformation Early Stage, and his strength is extremely mediocre. It doesn't matter whether they are here or not."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Cangyun King glared fiercely at Lin Yun'er.
At this point, she, as a junior, had no right to interrupt.
Lin Yun'er immediately lowered her head in fear. She had acted rashly just now, afraid that Su Yu would remember the Mu Family, and it wouldn't be so easy for her to destroy the Mu Family then.
Thinking about this, she gritted her teeth.
Hateful!
If it weren't for Su Yu's sudden arrival, she might have already wiped out the Mu Family.
Although she was in the Imperial Palace, she was well aware of the news in Jinling City, and she knew that the old master of the Mu Family had long since passed away.
She was told this news by Zhao Rong from the Mu Family, and she immediately prepared to visit them upon receiving the news.
But as luck would have it, Su Yu arrived at that moment.
In the long period of time from yesterday to today, who knows how many people from the Mu Family have already fled.
Even if she wanted to destroy the Mu Family, she could only destroy a portion of it at most.
How awful!
Although she was furious inside, her face was full of humility.
Although she was arrogant towards others, she dared not show the slightest disrespect to Su Yu.
Su Yu didn't dwell on it too much. The difference between having one more or one less Deity Transformation Early Stage cultivator was indeed not significant. The data he was collecting was only approximate, not precise.
At that very moment.
Several more people entered the main hall, the one leading them being Mu Hua, who stepped forward and respectfully bowed.
"The Mu Family, the Mu Family, pay their respects to Your Majesty."
Su Yu immediately looked at him. Deity Transformation Early Stage, this should be the eighth Nascent Soul Stage power in the Cangyun Empire.
His eyes flashed as he looked at the person beside Mu Hua.
But the next moment, Su Yu suddenly stood up, her eyes filled with disbelief.
This is...
