Su Yu, by what right?
A faint smile appeared on Su Yu’s face as he nodded and said, “Taoist Friend Xiuyu, Fairy Fengling.” His gaze then shifted to Xu Wansheng and continued, “It is rare of esteemed Hall Master Xu to visit such a remote and desolate place like Danshan. I hope you wouldn’t find it too inconveniencing.”
Xu Wansheng slightly raised his eyebrows as Fairy Fengling on the side had already let out a soft chuckle, “Not at all, on the contrary, Danshan is evidently a place of picturesque landscape, a land blessed with extraordinary individuals and resources.”
“After all, the fact that it has nurtured a prodigy like Taoist Friend Su serves as a testament to its richness and prosperity.”
Hearing Fairy Fengling’s flattering remarks, Su Yu couldn’t help but feel somewhat taken aback.
She really had a way with words.
What was this woman up to?
Listening to Fairy Fengling’s words, both Su Rui’an and Yu Ke’er, who were tending to Taoist Xiuyu and others upfront, felt equally intrigued.
Why are the people from Baiyue Immortal City showing such humility?
Su Yu took the leading seat, followed by Taoist Xiuyu, Fairy Fengling, and Xu Wansheng who also seated themselves.
Su Yu faced Taoist Xiuyu and asked, “Is there a particular reason for your visit, Taoist Friend Xiuyu?”
Taoist Xiuyu returned a faint smile and answered, “I’m merely a mediator here. Mainly, it’s Fairy Fengling who wishes to meet Taoist Friend Su.”
Su Yu then turned his gaze towards Fairy Fengling.
Fairy Fengling met his gaze head-on and with a smile, she said, “In the past, there had been some disagreements between Baiyue Immortal City, you, and the Su Family, but in my opinion, they do not warrant an irreconcilable feud. They are not that serious.”
“Hence, my main purpose for this visit is to reconcile with you and settle past discontents. After all, considering your current strength, you are standing at the top of the Great Yue Prefecture. There’s no need for us to start a conflict over trivialities.”
Her remarks were shockingly direct.
Su Yu was slightly taken aback, then he mumbled with a frown, “I don’t quite understand your meaning, Fairy.”
“As far as I know, there shouldn’t be any deep-seated grudges between my Su Family and you or Baiyue Immortal City.”
Upon hearing these words, Fairy Fengling chuckled, lightly shook her head and said, “I am here today with earnest intentions.”
“The Great Yue Prefecture is neither big nor small, and there would certainly be instances in the future where you will have to deal with the Baiyue Immortal City. I don’t wish for us to have a life-or-death struggle each time we meet.”
After a pause, Fairy Fengling said, “When we reached our level, every action we take could lead to enormous repercussions.”
“Barring demons or reckless Loose Cultivators, who could take actions without a second thought? Don’t you agree, Taoist Friend Su?”
“Take the Yu Family for instance. The Yu Family has recently declared their intention to withdraw from Baiyue Immortal City. This will inevitably affect the city to some extent. Nonetheless, we did not make a move against the Yu Family.”
“Why? Because behind the Yu Family, it was you and the Yunjian Sect standing guard.”
Fairy Fengling looked at Su Yu and said seriously, “Our cultivation of the Dao aims to achieve Immortality. If we keep on with this cycle of revenge, none of us will end up well. I believe that this outcome is not what you seek from walking the path of Dao cultivation.”
The eyes of Su Yu narrowed as he fixed his gaze on Fairy Fengling.
Fairy Fengling did not back down and met his gaze directly.
Her remarks meant she was ready to bury the hatchet with Su Yu and Baiyue Immortal City. Moreover, she was willing to let go of everything in the past, including the matter of Yu Family leaving Baiyue Immortal City.
Upon seeing this, Su Yu looked at Fairy Fengling for a moment before a smile emerged on his face. “So that’s your intention. I think I’ve got the rough idea of what you mean.”
“Actually, you’re taking it too seriously. For such a trivial matter, couldn’t you have just sent someone to notify me? This is good news.”
As he said this, Su Yu turned his gaze to Xu Wansheng, and with a grin, he continued, “Taoist Friend Xu, I was young and hotheaded back then. I might have offended you in some ways. Please do not take it to heart.”
Xu Wansheng felt a chill running down his spine under Su Yu’s gaze, his heart pounding rapidly.
Xu Wansheng bowed his head in fright and in a trembling voice said, “Not at all, not at all. In fact, I should be the one to apologize. I hope Taoist Friend Su will forgive me.”
Su Yu laughed out loud and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine.”
Afterwards, they all chatted leisurely for a while. Before leaving, Fairy Fengling presented a Qiankun Bag and said, “I heard that Taoist Friend Su is collecting Fengsui Stone materials. I have here a little stock from Baiyue Immortal City. I came unprepared without bringing any gifts. Please accept these materials as a congratulatory gift for reaching the top of the Great Yue Prefecture.”
Su Yu accepted the gift and saw off Fairy Fengling and Xu Wansheng.
Once the two had left, Su Yu furrowed his eyebrows.
Upon checking the Qiankun Bag with his Divine Sense, Su Yu gasped in surprise. Fairy Fengling was surely generous; she had gifted nearly two cubic feet of third-order spirit mineral Fengsui Stone.
This amount of material was sufficient to make up one-third of the main material required for crafting a third-order lower grade puppet beast, White Feather Phoenix Hawk.
It was worth at least a thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones.
What a valuable object.
Su Yu stowed away the Fengsui Stone and turned to Taoist Xiuyu, asking, “Taoist Friend Xiuyu, what do you think is the sincerity behind Baiyue Immortal City’s peace offer?”
Taoist Xiuyu hesitated for a moment before replying, “I’d say over eighty percent.”
To Taoist Xiuyu, this probability was almost fully certain. However, after hearing this, Su Yu slightly raised his eyebrows thinking that with an eighty percent probability, there was still a twenty percent chance that Baiyue Immortal City might be attempting to deceive them.
Taoist Xiuyu continued, “What Fairy Fengling said was not wrong. At the Core Formation True Man stage we’ve reached, we rarely take action.”
