Su Ming said nothing more.
He turned and sat down on a huge rock at the valley entrance.
There, he quietly kept watch.
Su Qingyuan stood beside him.
She followed his gaze into the valley.
Then she said softly.
"Wushuang has excellent talent."
"With this Dao Enlightenment Pill, his breakthrough to Immortal Emperor should be all but assured."
Su Ming nodded slightly.
