Qingfeng City

The Zixia Mountain Range could now be called the Su Family's private hunting grounds. Ever since the Su Family had occupied Wangyun Mountain, few people came this way anymore.

It was like wild beasts; they all had a sense of territory.

No one wished to offend the Su Family, so they kept their distance out of respect.

Moreover, influenced by Wangyun Mountain's Dragon Vein, the entire Zixia Mountain Range was brimming with spiritual energy and could fully serve as a resource supply ground for the Su Family.

The treasures the Su Family had obtained in the Zixia Mountain Range recently were worth nearly ten billion Lower-Grade Spirit Stones—something they would never have dared imagine before.

Time sped by, and in the blink of an eye, the Su Family had been stationed at Wangyun Mountain for half a year.

Old Master Su Qingtian had just broken through to Void Refinement Perfection two days ago, while Su Qingyun had broken through to the Void Refinement stage a month earlier. The Su Family now truly possessed three Void Refinement experts.

Over these six months, the Su Family had changed enormously as well. Thirteen stewards from the collateral branches had broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

Although the Su Family did not yet have a Body Integration Realm expert, it was already considered a powerful force within the Jinghong Empire.

Throughout the Jinghong Empire, aside from those King Tier forces with Body Integration Realm experts, forces at Void Refinement Perfection were practically the strongest.

The younger generation of the Su Family had also almost all gone out to gain experience.

Su Yuze had even established a force named the Luoyun Sect. Though it was still merely small-scale tinkering, he was building it with great seriousness. Perhaps it might truly grow into a powerful force someday.

Wangyun Courtyard.

"Reporting to Young Master, Princess Lin Yimeng has sent a letter."

Su Chen opened his eyes and said calmly, "Bring it in."

During this period, Lin Yimeng often sent him letters and gifts, or brought him food and things to play with.

The guard entered the courtyard and respectfully presented the letter.

Su Chen tore open the letter. Inside were three yellowed sheets of paper, filled with densely packed, delicate handwriting that flowed like drifting clouds and running water, as though it were a work of art.

"Young Master Su Chen, have you been staying at Wangyun Mountain recently? When are you coming to Jinghong City to have some fun? I recently discovered a restaurant, and the food there is especially delicious..."

Nearly a hundred words were written in a sweeping flow. The first two sheets described recent amusing happenings in Jinghong City, along with things that had happened around her.

Then Su Chen picked up the final sheet.

"I heard that Qianshan Commandery has exceptionally beautiful scenery and is the most beautiful place in the Jinghong Empire. I will be going there soon to handle some matters. Doesn't Young Master Su Chen always enjoy traveling? Would you like to go together and have some fun?"

At the end, Su Chen frowned, an odd expression appearing on his face.

Was she asking him out?

A beautiful figure surfaced in Su Chen's mind. She always carried a trace of shyness whenever she stood before him.

Qianshan Commandery?

He had heard the servants mention that place before. Judging by the rumors, its scenery was indeed quite good.

However, he had no plans to visit it at the moment. Perhaps he would go in the future, or perhaps he would not.

Ruoxi said with a smile, "Young Master, Her Highness the Princess seems to like you quite a bit."

Su Chen smiled faintly but said nothing.

Though he had been ordinary in his previous life, he had dated several times. How could he not know what Lin Yimeng was thinking?

Seeing this, Ruoxi stepped forward again and began massaging Su Chen.

In truth, Lin Yimeng's appearance did not give her much of a sense of crisis. She understood her place very clearly and would not covet things that did not belong to her.

Su Chen said to the guard outside the courtyard, "Send someone to reply for me. Tell her that I will not be going to Qianshan Commandery anytime soon."

"Yes, Young Master!"

The guard's respectful voice rang out again.

Su Chen gazed into the distance, his eyes revealing nothing of what he was thinking.

"Fifth Brother, are you here?"

Suddenly, a soft and delicate voice rang out from beyond the courtyard.

Su Chen immediately recognized who it was and said at once, "Come in."

Before long, a young girl in a pale pink dress walked in. Her eyes shone brightly, and she looked exceedingly adorable, like a porcelain doll.

The newcomer was Su Yunpeng's daughter, Su Shanshan, who was only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Though she was not very old, her cultivation was already remarkably high. She had reached the Core Formation stage, something even the original owner of this body could not compare to.

This was enough to show just how much resources could help a cultivator.

Su Chen sat up straight and asked with a smile, "Ninth Sister, do you need something from me?"

Su Shanshan looked somewhat embarrassed. "Fifth Brother, there aren't any cultivation techniques in the family that suit me very well. My father told me to come ask you, so..."

Cultivation technique?

Su Chen was slightly stunned before asking, "What kind do you cultivate?"

Upon hearing this, Su Shanshan immediately took out a crimson fan. It was exquisitely crafted, and Su Chen immediately understood.

The Su Family truly did not possess any particularly powerful cultivation techniques related to fans. After all, this was too obscure a path, and very few people cultivated in such areas.

Within the Xuantian Realm, the most common cultivators were Sword Cultivators and Blade Cultivators. Nearly half of all cultivators belonged to one of these two types.

Su Chen began searching through the system space and quickly found a Heaven Rank high-grade cultivation technique that also belonged to the fan category.

Refining Fire Azure Cloud Fan!

This cultivation technique possessed both fire and wind attributes and was fairly compatible with Su Shanshan.

"Take a look."

Su Chen handed over the Memory Jade Talisman containing the cultivation technique. Seeing that Su Chen truly had one, Su Shanshan's face immediately lit up with joy. "Thank you, Fifth Brother."

Su Shanshan used the Memory Jade Talisman, and the cultivation path of the Refining Fire Azure Cloud Fan instantly appeared in her mind.

But in the next moment, she froze where she stood.

"Heaven... Heaven Rank high-grade!"

Su Shanshan's eyes were filled with disbelief. This cultivation technique was actually Heaven Rank high-grade.

The highest-grade cultivation technique currently possessed by the Su Family was the Earth Rank high-grade technique Su Chen had given them before, which was enough to cultivate to the Body Integration Realm.

She had thought that was already the limit, yet Su Chen had directly given her a Heaven Rank high-grade cultivation technique.

Su Chen said with a smile, "Fifth Brother has never given you much of a gift since we were young. Consider this cultivation technique my way of making up for it."

Upon hearing this, mist immediately welled in the eyes of the sentimental Su Shanshan.

"Thank you, Fifth Brother!"

The two chatted for a while longer. Before long, Su Shanshan left the courtyard to cultivate the technique.

The Memory Jade Talisman's records of the cultivation technique were extremely detailed. As long as one cultivated step by step, problems would basically never arise, so there was no need for anyone to guide her.

Qingfeng City.

Su He and Su Qianqian walked arm in arm, strolling through the city.

Qingfeng City was not far from Wangyun Mountain, only around three hundred li away. With their current Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, they could basically arrive in around ten minutes.

Moreover, they did not need to travel on foot. For the sake of convenient travel, the Su Family had directly set up a teleportation formation between Wangyun Mountain and Qingfeng City.

At this distance, they could arrive in ten breaths using the teleportation formation.

Both were strikingly beautiful, and the eyes of many young men around them gleamed faintly as they looked at them.

Qingfeng City was enormous. When they wandered into a sparsely populated street, two hands suddenly grabbed them, and they instantly vanished from the street.

Their eyes were filled with terror, and muffled whimpers rang out.

In the end, they were dragged into a courtyard nearby. Few people had been walking along this street to begin with, so almost no one noticed their disappearance.
