Su Chen had actually already thought through the possible situations before taking action against Sang arrangements and layout made by Fan Chengyan and others were also as expected.
Next, Fan Chengyan and others will probably come to Zhuming Palace to demand accountability.
I chatted with them before and heard that Sang Moyuan's family is also quite powerful.
My move this time should have a great impact on Zhu Ming Palace.
Now it depends on what Zhu Ming Palace decides.
After all, it would not be a good thing for Zhu Minggong if he completely broke off relations with Wulan Villa and Fan Chengyan.
Especially someone like Fan Chengyan, when she goes crazy, she is a big trouble.
Su Chen is now waiting for the decision from the top leaders of Zhuming Palace.
No matter what decision Palace Master Yao makes, Su Chen will understand and agree with it.
After all, when I first came to Zhuming Palace, Palace Master Yao had a detailed conversation with me.
At that time, Palace Master Yao also expressed his thoughts.
As for Fan Chengyan, it is difficult for them to become direct enemies with Fan Chengyan and help Su Chen deal with her.
All Zhu Minggong could do was to protect Su Chen within the sect.
Palace Master Yao spoke frankly at the time.
So this time, whether Zhu Minggong is willing to continue protecting him or not, he can accept it.
After resting for two days in Zhuming Palace, Su Chen finally waited for Yao Wen to come and talk to him in detail.
In the attic, Palace Master Yao Wen seemed to be hesitant to speak.
It was Su Chen who spoke first, breaking the silence and making the atmosphere a little more relaxed.
“Since Elder Su joined Zhu Ming Palace, everyone can see that the sect’s strength and status have improved significantly.
The technique of making jade elixir has now become the signature of our Zhu Ming Palace.
All of this is thanks to you, Elder Su."
In fact, after hearing this, Su Chen could roughly guess what was going on.
Saying some good things first is just laying the groundwork for the bad things that come later.
"Fan Chengyan is a crazy person who often doesn't follow the rules or etiquette.
Zhu Minggong's current strength is probably not enough to completely suppress her abilities.
She could capture any alchemist in the palace and force him to reveal information about you.
So, my current thinking is.
Elder Su, you may need to leave Zhuming Palace and hide.
Staying in Zhuming Palace will probably put you in greater danger."
Hearing this, Su Chen nodded calmly.
Palace Master Yao did not dare to make up his mind to protect Su Chen and confront Fan Chengyan head-on.
After many discussions and a combination of various conditions, this decision was finally made.
Su Chen was not dissatisfied with this.
It's understandable that he just wants to hide away.
"It's alright, Palace Master.
I understand your thoughts. It is not easy to support a sect.
Although Zhu Ming Palace seems to be on a smooth road now, there are actually still many problems that need to be dealt with.
I thought of all this when I attacked Sang Moyuan.
I will find a way to resolve the feud between Master Sang Moyuan and his apprentice."
The easier Su Chen talked to him, the more guilty Yao Wen felt.
"Elder Su, you are still the elder of Zhu Ming Palace. If you need anything, just write it in the letter.
Once you find it in the palace, we will immediately send someone to deliver it to the agreed location.
Zhu Ming Palace will continue to accumulate strength, and one day, we in Zhu Ming Palace will be able to easily suppress Fan Chengyan."
Su Chen nodded and smiled in a relaxed manner.
Before they parted, Yao Wen couldn't help but step forward again.
"Actually, there is one thing I want to tell you today, Elder Su.
Above our Zhu Ming Palace, there are actually even greater forces."
Hearing this, Su Chen also stopped and listened carefully.
"I will report this to them and see if they can come forward and protect you.
If possible, Elder Su, you will be much safer.
We in Zhu Ming Palace are now more confident than before, so this may be feasible."
Hearing this, Su Chen thanked Palace Master Yao Wen again.
Go back and pack up, rest for a night, and you can leave tomorrow.
Su Chen didn't have much worries about leaving Zhuming Palace.
Instead, I am more looking forward to it.
Tonglu City, mid-September.
Lying on the bed, Su Chen recalled the divination that Old Man Wenhua had given him before.
The frost is cool and the poem is vivid.
It seemed as if he was saying that the ending between him and Qiu Ruoshuang was destined not to be good.
But the fact is, the two got in touch again.
As long as two people are interested in each other, what obstacles can't be overcome?
Be determined enough and everything else will work out.
In his mind, Su Chen began to think about what he should say when they met.
I thought a lot, but felt that none of them were quite appropriate.
The more I thought about it, the more confused I became.
I shook my head and decided not to think about it anymore, trying to sleep as peacefully as possible.
This time after coming into contact with the Yuanshi Seal, my gains should be considered unique among everyone.
Others at most learned some practice guidance from it.
But he took away part of the spirituality of the Yuanshi Seal.
This spirituality also made his state of mind clearer than before, and greatly improved his understanding of spiritual practice.
After a night, Su Chen did not bring too many things with him and traveled light.
Bid farewell to Palace Master Yao and the others.
The senior officials of Zhuming Palace were very respectful and came together to see Su Chen off.
After some polite exchanges, Su Chen jumped away and headed towards Tonglu City.
Looking at Su Chen's back, Palace Master Yao Wen looked solemn.
There seemed to be a hint of regret mixed in.
"Do you think our decision was correct?"
Upon hearing this, the elders around all frowned.
After a while, the third elder spoke.
“Palace Master, if we were to face Fan Chengyan now, it would definitely have a huge impact on the sect.
As long as Fan Chengyan announces that she will take action against us, everyone in Zhu Ming Palace will become panic-stricken.
Elder Su has really been a great help to us.
But we really have no choice now.
Compared with the two, this is already the best choice.
What's more, we are still protecting Elder Su.
We, Zhu Ming Palace, did not take advantage of his misfortune, and did not do anything to harm him."
After hearing this, Yao Wen nodded.
But his face still looked solemn.
"If we are willing to risk our lives and give up everything to protect him.
We should be able to stop Fan Chengyan."
As soon as Yao Wen finished speaking, the fourth elder immediately asked further questions.
"But Palace Master, is this worth it?"
Yeah, is it worth it?
Su Chen had an excellent talent for alchemy, and he also taught Zhu Minggong the techniques for refining jade pills.
Logically, Zhu Minggong should repay Su Chen and protect him.
However, if Zhu Minggong were to confront Fan Chengyan head-on, he would really suffer a lot of losses.
does it worth?
Yao Wen also asked himself this question several times.
"Elder Su dared to attack Sang Moyuan at that time, so he should have thought through the possible situations.
Now it’s like this, it’s OK.”
The great elder next to him also offered words of comfort.
Palace Master Yao looked into the distance and finally sighed again. "From now on, it will be difficult for us to get closer to Elder Su."
The elders present didn't seem to be very worried.
If we can't be any closer, then we can't be any closer. This level is enough for now.
Only Palace Master Yao had something in mind.
He seemed to see Su Chen's potential. Perhaps this jade elixir was not Su Chen's most valuable thing.
If he is willing to take the risk this time, Zhu Ming Palace will get Su Chen's most sincere recognition.
From now on, you should think of yourself as a member of Zhu Ming Palace.
But this time, Zhu Minggong did not choose this path.
There are so many choices in the world, and no one can say which path is the right one.
Shaking their heads, everyone went back to the pharmacy.
Life has to go on and we don’t have the energy to dwell on the past.
Zhu Minggong still needs to think about how to deal with Su Chen's matter.
Even if Su Chen left, Fan Chengyan would definitely come and cause trouble.
You have to find a suitable excuse to deal with it.
If Fan Chengyan still insisted on making a scene after Su Chen left.
Then Zhu Minggong will have no choice but to fight with her.
Just as Yao Wen said, these sects and forces that belong to the same faction have a big force behind them that is like a leader and the person who makes the decisions.
While they were struggling to think about how to respond, Su Chen had already walked some distance away.
Tonglu City is located in the southwest of Jin State.
From previous understanding, the western and southwestern parts of Jin State are the sphere of influence of Wulan Villa and their faction.
Sects like the Taihe Sect and the Zhuming Palace Sect are located in the east and southeast.
Of course, these so-called spheres of influence are only an approximation.
It doesn't mean that as long as you go to those areas, all the forces will be on their side.
Su Chen was also aware of his own safety.
The State of Jin was too large, and it was not easy to find the whereabouts of a person.
In comparison, he would be in greater danger in the Great Zhou.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, Wulan Villa is a top behemoth. If Fan Chengyan went there.
She can call the shots and do whatever she wants there.
But this is Jin State. Even if Fan Chengyan is domineering, she doesn't have the courage to search a certain area at random.
Each major sect has its own secrets.
He said he was looking for someone, so he went to look around in other people's territory.
It would be strange if others didn't fight with her.
So in Jin State, Su Chen was not too worried about his own safety.
On the contrary, my mother and younger sister who are in the capital of Great Zhou will be in more danger.
I will reverse these situations as soon as possible.
As long as Wulan Villa starts to worry and feel anxious every day.
If Fan Chengyan used such domineering means to return the favor, the danger to A Niang and Xiao Mei would be eliminated.
It is only the end of August now, and Su Chen feels that he should be able to reach Tonglu City in advance.
It's too early, so just stay in the city for the time being and wait.
We continued on our journey and arrived at Tonglu City on September 5th.
Tonglu City is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and enjoys the reputation of unique mountains and rivers.
A stream of Yingchun River runs through the city, making the scenery of the entire city more beautiful.
Walking in the city of Tonglu, the air around me seems to be much fresher.
Su Chen went to the west side of Tonglu City as the letter said.
There is indeed an elegant courtyard here.
It’s still some time until mid-September.
He walked back and forth outside the yard, looking up from time to time.
It seemed that this little action was noticed by the people inside.
The gate opened and a maid walked out.
She looked unhappy at first, but when she saw it was Su Chen, her eyes and brows instantly brightened.
"Mr. Su, why are you here?
This place in Tonglu City is Sister Shuang’s most secret courtyard.
How did you find it?"
The maid who spoke was Qingyuan, the maid who had always been with Qiu Ruoshuang.
She was surprised when she saw Su Chen, as if she really didn't know Su Chen would come.
"That's what Senior Qiu said in the letter."
After hearing the first half, the maid Qingyuan had already opened the gate and invited Su Chen to enter the yard.
The layout of the entire courtyard is very similar to the small courtyard in Xiaguan City.
Looks familiar.
Come to think of it, Qiu Ruoshuang should like this layout very much.
After sitting down in the courtyard, Qingyuan quickly brought some tea and snacks.
"Mr. Su, did you really receive Sister Shuang's letter?"
Qingyuan still seemed a little confused and couldn't help but ask further questions.
However, when she was talking to Su Chen, she always stood to one side.
As a servant, although Qing Yuan was deeply loved by Qiu Ruoshuang, she always knew her place clearly.
"It is indeed what Senior Qiu said. Otherwise, the territory of Jin is so vast that it would be really difficult to find it."
"Sister Shuang is still practicing in meditation. If there is no response, Master Su may have to stay in the courtyard for a while."
Su Chen nodded in agreement.
Qingyuan went to the small house in the yard and prepared to inform Qiu Ruoshuang.
It’s just that this martial arts practice is in seclusion and cannot be disturbed at will.
Qingyuan could only write a note and hand it into the house.
While waiting for Qiu Ruoshuang to come back to her senses, she noticed this note.
But this time, she had just handed the note in.
After a moment, the door opened.
She was wearing a light blue fairy dress, which was light and translucent, like clouds. There were some embellishments on her waist, which seemed to add a touch of softness, and her figure was elegant, transcendent and otherworldly.
Others might not know, but Qingyuan had been with Qiu Ruoshuang for so long that he certainly knew it.
Generally, Qiu Ruoshuang would only dress up like this for very formal events.
"Sister Frost"
Qingyuan looked at Qiu Ruoshuang. This young lady of hers looked really good today.
But this kind of dress surprised even her personal maid, who called out in a timid voice.
"Well, what happened?"
There was a smile on Qiu Ruoshuang's face, and I didn't know if it was because she looked happy.
Still thinking about other things to be happy.
"No, it's nothing. Master Su is already waiting outside.
I'll go cook, Sister Shuang, you two can talk."
Qiu Ruoshuang nodded, then turned and walked into the yard.
The moment he saw Qiu Ruoshuang, Su Chen was stunned.
I unconsciously wanted to get up, but after coming to my senses, I subconsciously sat back down.
Suddenly it occurred to me that I was here as a guest.
When the host comes, I am considered a guest and should stand up.
Qiu Ruoshuang watched Su Chen want to get up, then sit down, and then stand up again.
The smile on her face became more intense and she looked better.
As she approached step by step, everything around her seemed to fade because of her.
At least that's what Su Chen saw.
"It must be a long way to come here."
Qiu Ruoshuang stood in front of Su Chen with a smile on her face. She was actually a little panicked at the moment, with all kinds of mixed thoughts in her mind.
But he was much better than Su Chen, and was relatively calm. (End of this chapter)
