Chapter 616: 197 A Rough and Straightforward Little Uncle_2
The first meeting came to an end.
Inside the main courtyard of the Immortal Mansion.
Fan Xiao invited Su Yu here and personally brewed and poured tea for him. She took good care of him before asking, “Master Uncle, you didn’t say anything today. How do you think the chaos in the territory of Dark Prison Immortal City should be rectified?”
There were only two people there. Su Yu tasted the spiritual tea water brought by Daozi’s nephew. It was good and quite sweet.
After expressing his admiration, Su Yu said, “I’ve only been here for a month. What’s there to manage? Besides the information you know from them, you know nothing else. Who do you plan to deal with?”
Upon hearing his words, Fan Xiao chuckled. From this sentence, she could tell that her junior uncle had his own ideas and was not brainless.
Fan Xiao watched as Su Yu drank most of his tea and refilled it for him. She then asked, “Master Uncle, would you like to accompany me and patrol together?”
Su Yu shook his head, jokingly. If he left the Immortal city with her, he wouldn’t be surprised if there was a top killer from the Nascent Soul Realm.
Su Yu said, “Didn’t I bring the Sky Thunder Rat Monster Group here before? They’ve spread out to every corner of the Dark Prison Immortal City’s territory. Let them investigate the intelligence.”
“Let’s stay safely in the city for a year. After a year, when we understand the real situation of the Dark Prison Immortal City and its territory, we will know how to act.”
“Decapitate a few of the most prominent figures to demonstrate our power, and the chaos here should be able to calm down.”
“Then deal with the matter of Yu Long Palace.”
Fan Xiao’s alluring eyes showed a hint of surprise. Before coming here, her master, the Lord of the Earth Immortal Mansion, had told her to listen more to the opinions of her junior uncle.
Do not feel self-important and self-righteous just because you’ve become a Daozi.
Now, after hearing Su Yu’s suggestions, Fan Xiao felt that her master had a good eye. Her junior uncle indeed had ideas.
After pondering for a moment, Fan Xiao agreed, “Then I’ll listen to my uncle.”
“No, no, no, I’m just messing around here. You’re the one who makes the decisions here,” Su Yu insisted on being a laggard, drank another two cups of sweet Spiritual Tea from his niece, and then leisurely returned to his residence.
In Su Yu’s view, whatever chaos there was outside the Dark Prison Immortal City was nothing but semblance. It would be simple for the Earth Immortal Mansion to deal with.
However, dealing with it well would be a bit more troublesome.
And he’d rather leave such troublesome matters to his junior niece to solve, and focus on his cultivation. It’s better not to create trouble.
For the next period, Su Yu spent his days in daily cultivation, Alchemy, and Formation foundation refining. He hardly ever went out, keeping a low profile and truly minding his own business.
However, no one knew that in his spare time, he was wandering around the Immortal Mansion, unknowingly setting up some Formations and turning the Dark Prison Immortal Mansion into an impregnable fortress.
Outside the Dark Prison Immortal City.
The news of a Daozi from the Earth Immortal Mansion coming to sit in the city had spread long ago. Hence, in the initial period of Fan Xiao’s arrival, the conflicts between the various forces had largely ceased.
But as the news from Dark Prison Immortal City spread that Fan Xiao had been here for so long without even setting foot outside the city gate, the various forces gradually began to circulate voices of ridicule. Fan Xiao, as the Daozi, began to be branded as fearful and scared of death.
Less than a year had passed when an incident caused a stir in the territory of Dark Prison Immortal City.
Fan Xiao called for a meeting with Jiang Wen, Chen Zhoudao, Bai Chuan and others. Su Yu did not attend, but instead met with two Tier-3 low-grade Sky Thunder Rats in the backyard.
“Master, the Ji Family, a cultivator family with the surname Ji, is quite well-known in the Dark Prison Immortal City. Rumor has it that they have an Elder who belongs to the inner mansion of the Immortal Gate, and the Ji Family itself has three True Monarchs in the Nascent Soul Realm. The most powerful of the patriarchs has reached the fifth level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and they rank highly in terms of power and strength in the Dark Prison Immortal City.”
“This time, they have taken down another cultivator family with the surname Wang. Indeed, the Wang Family is less powerful and influential than the Ji Family. However, the patriarch of the Wang Family was also at the fifth stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.”
“If it was just relying on the Ji family’s strength, they would not have been able to take down the Wang Family.”
“However, the patriarch of the Wang Family just recently met with a mishap. For some unknown reason, he went out once and ended up dying outside.”
“Who the killer is, nobody knows yet.”
“However, according to our investigation, the Ji Family has a good relationship with many forces in the Yu Long Palace area. Recently, the strength of the forces under the Ji Family has been quickly growing, which is not normal.”
“This time, the Ji Family swallowed the Wang Family and announced that they would annex a market in the Immortal Gate and three resource sites within the range of the two families. This seemed a bit like a test, because the Ji family has not actually taken control of the market and the resource sites.”
One of the Sky Thunder Rats detailed the recent happenings, including the details of the Ji family.
This was the biggest incident that had occurred since Su Yu arrived in the Dark Prison Immortal City.
After hearing about it, Su Yu found it interesting: “Releasing a message that he owns all the resources in the territories of the two families, but actually not taking any action?”
The Ji Family swallowing the Wang Family was something Su Yu didn’t care about.
The law of the jungle is the basic rule of the cultivation world. Whether the Wang Family lived or died had nothing to do with him.
But the Ji Family dared to state that they would claim a market of the Immortal Gate and three resource sites. This had something to do with him!
It didn’t matter if it was just a market and three resource sites, even if it was a single person from the external mansion of the Earth Immortal Mansion, the Ji Family was courting death!
Now, the Ji Family was doing this, there could only be two meanings.
