Chapter 535: 162 Return to the Great Moon Mansion (Ask for Monthly Tickets) _2
If it can be spoken aloud, it’s likely that it’s quite certain.
Taoist Tianyu furrowed his brows in thought for a moment, asking, “Do you want to go back for a bit?”
Su Yu nodded, saying: “I won’t be at ease if I don’t go back and check.”
Taoist Tianyu pondered for a long while before saying, “I don’t have a beast taming by my side, nor do I have any other kinds of objects that can accompany you.”
“However, since you have contributed to the immortal gate before and now you have offered a token that enables free access to the illusionary marsh ruins, I have the confidence.”
“So, you can go back to the immortal gate once, and I will ask an old guy to accompany you.”
“As for me, I have to keep watching here, so there’s no way I could accompany you home.”
Su Yu was startled, and asked softly: “Master, who is this old guy? Which senior at the immortal gate is this?”
Taoist Tianyu oh’d in response, casually saying: “An old guy who loves to sleep. He is one of the mounts left by the previous mansion lord. Nowadays, he spends all his time sleeping on the main peak, doing nothing constructive.”
“Perfect, I’ll let him go with you this time, it will prevent him from getting antsy.”
Upon hearing these words, Su Yu was immediately stunned, and then he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
Hello there.
Is this the mount of the previous mansion lord?
Taoist Qingquan and Luo Qianyu, who were beside him, were initially startled when Su Yu mentioned that the Da Yue Mansion might be in trouble. However, now, hearing Taoist Tianyu mentioning that he would bring out the mount of the previous mansion lord to accompany Su Yu to Da Yue Mansion, the two women were both stunned.
Su Yu–
Has his status really risen that high?
A moment later.
Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, and Taoist Qingquan walked out of the hall, excused themselves, and then left.
As they were walking towards the outskirts of the mansion, Luo Qianyu turned to Su Yu and asked: “Is Da Yue Mansion really in trouble?”
Su Yu nodded slightly and said: “It’s very likely.”
Taoist Qingquan had a doubtful look in her eyes, Does unrest of the mind mean he can sense that Da Yue mansion is in danger? Why haven’t she and Luo Qianyu, among others, sensed anything?
However, she didn’t voice her questions because, in her heart, she trusted Su Yu.
Besides, seeing how Taoist Tianyu treated Su Yu and even went as far as to bring out the mount of the previous mansion lord for Su Yu convinced Taoist Qingquan there was no need for her doubt.
Taoist Qingquan then urged: “Let’s hurry and go, so we can get back sooner.”
Upon exiting the mansion’s demarcation zone, Ma Shiqing, having received Luo Qianyu’s message, was already waiting outside for them.
After regrouping with Ma Shiqing, Su Yu and the others immediately returned to the City of the Ten Monarchs.
At this moment, Taoist Shuhai was waiting for them in the City of the Ten Monarchs.
In the City of the Ten Monarchs, Su Yu reunited with his Dao-body puppet, storing it inside his Dantian for nourishment.
Afterwards, he once again used the teleportation formation to return to the mansion of the immortals of the immortal gate on his own.
Mansion of the immortal gate.
Da Yu Peak.
Upon Su Yu’s return to this place, he spotted an enormous python-like creature with pale-yellow scale armor, two claws, and a bump on its head that looked like it was going to sprout a horn. It was perched on a Spirit Plant outside the courtyard.
When he returned, the giant python-like creature was lazily lounging and sunbathing on top of the crown of the Spirit Plant.
It wasn’t until Su Yu approached that the creature lifted its head to glance at him, in the next moment, a magnetic voice that sounded like an elderly woman echoed in Su Yu’s ears: “Are you the disciple that Tianyu speaks of?”
Su Yu approached it, respectfully bowed and said: “Disciple Su Yu, greeting senior.”
This was the mount of the previous owner of the mansion, an entity of higher status than Taoist Tianyu.
The giant python-like creature slid down from the Spirit Plant, came over to Su Yu, muttering: “That old guy always gives me things to do, can’t I just enjoy a good sleep at home? This old guy… next time I see him, I’ll definitely have to give him a good beating.”
Su Yu: “…”
The giant python-like creature came up to Su Yu, saying: “Get on, don’t stay in a daze, I am taking you.”
Su Yu hurriedly said: “Um, should I go by myself, senior?”
The next moment.
An overwhelmingly powerful demonic power came storming over, lifting him onto the back of the giant python-like creature. A gust of wind whipped up, and in the blink of an eye, they had already left the mansion gate of the immortals, heading towards the city of Land Ridge.
“So much nonsense.”
At this point, the voice of the giant python monster continued to mutter, “Let me tell you, your master, that old fellow, is not a good guy. When he was young, he often caused troubles, and I had to go out several times to save him.”
“Back then, if you ask who was the most troublesome person in our Land Immortal Mansion, it was definitely your master without a doubt.”
“The master often complained about this kid being too much of a troublemaker. If it wasn’t for the master’s tough stance, he might have been busted up by other immortal sects a long time ago.”
He seems to be going on about the dark history of Su Yu’s master.
Su Yu immediately became interested and started a conversation with the senior.
In the end, he even talked about the dark history of the current lord of the mansion.
After all, as far as Su Yu knew, among the several ladies of the current lord, some were the demon fairy daughters of other immortal gates back then. The stories behind this were so thrilling for Su Yu.
Su Yu exclaimed, “I didn’t know the lord was such a scumbag– cough, I mean, such a Casanova.”
“Puh.”
The giant python monster sneered, “If you ask my master, he would say if he had restrained his passions back then, his accomplishments today might have been even greater.”
“He and your master are two extremes, one dries himself to death, the other drowns himself.”
Cough cough cough.
Su Yu was at a loss for words, this senior was really outspoken, no filter at all.
He thought of his master, and True Monarch of the Six-Tailed Fox. It’s not like they completely dried up, right? His master just didn’t focus on that.
Under the guidance of the python monster, Su Yu, who would have taken a day to arrive at Di Ling Fairy City on his own, arrived in less than an hour.
At the same time, Su Yu learned this senior’s name: Huang Zhu. She was originally a simple psychic python, but with the help of the previous and current lords of the Mansion of Land Immortal, she has undergone bloodline transformation.
Now, she is half dragon, half python.
As for her cultivation strength –
Su Yu couldn’t see through it, nor did he dare to ask.
Hum!
Through the teleportation array of Di Ling Fairy City, Su Yu and Elder Huang Zhu arrived swiftly at Shi Jun City.
In a guest house next to the teleportation array of Shi Jun City, Su Yu met up with Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, Taoist Shuhai, and Ma Shiqing. Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and others all respectfully saluted Elder Huang Zhu.
“Greetings, Elder Huang Zhu.”
“Ah, ah, ah, drop the formalities.” Huang Zhu’s voice rang in everyone’s ears, “Let’s go, you said it was urgent, right? So let’s not waste any more time.”
The teleportation array in Shi Jun City is a large-scale one with an extremely wide range.
Through it, everyone can first go to the Star Plucking Building, which is closer to Da Yue Mansion, and then go to Da Yue Mansion on their own.
And the Star Plucking Building is the force where Ma Shiqing entered as a disciple before.
Even though it’s not one of the top ten immortal gates in Da Qian’s immortal cultivation world, the power of Star Plucking Tower is not to be underestimated, with elders in the Dividing Spirit Realm presiding over it.
They even have a fifth-order array master.
With Ma Shiqing present, everyone had no problem going through the Star Plucking Tower.
After exiting the city of Star Plucking Tower, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and others all landed on Elder Huang Zhu’s back, speeding towards the Da Yue Mansion at an unparalleled speed.
The journey was long and required passing through one deserted area after another which was sparsely populated.
It took them more than a year to travel from the Da Yue Mansion to the Star Plucking Tower on True Monarch Gu Lan’s lower fourth-tier flying boat.
To return to Da Yue Mansion now, it took them almost half a year to get into the Da Yue territory.
Just as they entered the territory of Da Yue Mansion and passed an immortal trading town, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and others sensed something amiss.
A faint smell of blood and a demonic aura were wafting up from the town below.
Su Yu and others frowned while their divine senses immediately covered the town below.
This trade town wasn’t huge, situated on a tier-one Spirit Vein, set between the mountains and covered in layers of fog.
However, this fog couldn’t hinder the divine senses of Su Yu and others from seeing through it.
In an instant, the scene in the town, reminiscent of purgatory, came into view.
