City Lord’s Mansion.

Lord Xiahou was eating, looked up, and looked at Xia Huyou. A strange look flashed across his chubby face, “Completely neutralized?”

“Yes!”

Xia Huyou nodded, and marveled, “Zhou Hao, the one who cultivates the 《Thousand Mountains Art》, Senior Brother Yu Wentang’s student, neutralized all the repulsive force in one go, and directly combined the two apertures. That’s the 《Thousand Mountains Art》 with the greatest repulsive force.”

Lord Xiahou nodded thoughtfully, “It’s a good cultivation method. Even if it’s not as effective as before in the Mountain and Sea realm, it’s still a good cultivation method that can change the middle and lower-level powerhouses, saving geniuses a lot of time and allowing them to rise faster.”

Xia Huyou smiled and said, “Second Grandfather, don’t you think I have good judgment!”

“…”

Lord Xiahou glanced at him, and said in an annoyed tone, “If you really had great judgment and strong ability, the other party should be bowing down to you now, willingly becoming your subordinate. But you’re acting like a grandson to him!”

Xia Huyou was speechless.

These words… seemed to make some sense.

Lord Xiahou snorted, and his eyes flickered, “Good kid, hiding a lot of things! The Xia family doesn’t do things like robbery, we can’t do that, but… the Xia family likes it when others give us things!”

“Ah?”

Xia Huyou hurriedly said, “Second Grandfather, don’t mess around. Once the Xia family breaks the rules…”

“Get lost!”

Lord Xiahou angrily said, “Idiot! Who wants to break the rules? If we break the rules, wouldn’t your Grandfather, my old man, come and clean me up?”

As he spoke, he cursed, “Idiot, if you weren’t so useless, would I need to take action? Can’t you learn from your father? Don’t just imitate me, you’ve become too slick. It’s not a good thing that geniuses don’t look up to you!”

He was quite satisfied with this grand-nephew.

But being too slick isn’t necessarily a good thing.

As Xia Longwu’s son and the future heir of the Great Xia Mansion, he can’t just be slick all the time.

“Look at your father. Although he was stubborn back then, he still managed to recruit a lot of strong people. What about you? Tell me your achievements!”

“Su Yu!”

“Get lost!”

Lord Xiahou scolded angrily, “Did you recruit him? That kid latched onto you himself, wanting to use you as a banner and a backer! That kid is better at winning people over than you are. Look, the people in the research institute have become his staunch supporters, the kind who would give their hearts and souls. ‘Su Yu treats me as a national scholar, and I will do my best!’ Can you do that? You’re almost his subordinate!”

“He’s still from the unpopular Many Gods Literature faction, the weaker side. And you’re a member of the Xia family!”

After scolding him a few times, Lord Xiahou calmed down.

He was just a little unhappy with this foolish grand-nephew for not taking his 300,000 merits seriously. He was selling his grandfather’s land without feeling any pain, wasn’t he?

300,000 merits!

You bastard, you just exchanged it for a backup right, you idiot, you’re going to piss off your grandfather!

Xia Huyou wasn’t angry either, and smiled, “Second Grandfather, it’s nothing. Geniuses are arrogant. If I directly reveal my identity, they might think I’m using my power to oppress them. It’s good the way it is now. We’re all friends. When they find out my identity in the future, they’ll see that the prince of the Great Xia Mansion is so friendly to them…”

“Su Yu doesn’t know your identity?”

“He knows.”

“Was he touched?”

“Well… it doesn’t seem like it.”

“Then why are you talking nonsense!”

Lord Xiahou was speechless. If he wasn’t, then what were you saying!

Ignoring him, Lord Xiahou continued to eat a few mouthfuls of food, wiped his greasy mouth, and stood up, “Respecting talents, now that he has shown his talent and strength, we should pay him a visit!”

“I, the acting Mansion Lord, will go see him!”

“Your father is hopeless. That guy is too stupid. If he really goes, he might sell the Xia family!”

Xia Huyou: “…”

He couldn’t say anything. You can scold him, but I can’t.

If my father knew, he would beat me to death.

Lord Xiahou walked and said, “What are you standing there for? Let’s go! I met this guy once last time and chatted with him for a while. He’s not a good person. Be careful yourself. I checked his information. He hasn’t been a good person since he was a child. His neighbors, teachers, and classmates all have a good impression of him and think he’s a good boy.”

“But Chen Hao next door often fought and bullied people… but I also checked, that kid isn’t that sturdy.”

Lord Xiahou puffed up his fat face, walked, and said, “No need to check, you can tell at a glance that one is a thug and the other is a strategist. He just made Chen Hao take the blame.”

Xia Huyou followed him and asked curiously, “Second Grandfather, why would Chen Hao be willing to take the blame for him? Su Yu’s family is ordinary and can’t help Chen Hao much. At least before this, he couldn’t help him with anything.”

Lord Xiahou smiled and said, “That’s called ability! Chen Hao didn’t suffer either. He just got a reputation as a fool. Others don’t dare to bully him anymore. They all know he’s an honest man, just has a bad temper and a foolish personality… Since he didn’t suffer, and someone is helping him come up with ideas to deal with people, isn’t that great?”

Xia Huyou nodded thoughtfully.

The two got into a carriage, which was pulled by a Benyun horse. In front of the carriage, an old man was particularly low-key, driving the carriage.

Lord Xiahou said, “Go to the Great Xia Civilization Academy!”

After speaking, he said to Xia Huyou again, “Su Yu is a shrewd person. Chen Hao stood up for him, and he turned around to apologize for Chen Hao, saying that Chen Hao was honest and sorry to others, and told them not to take it seriously. He dragged Chen Hao out and gave him a few slaps, just to let others vent their anger…”

Lord Xiahou smiled and said, “Look at what he did! He came up with the idea, Chen Hao did the bad things, and the opponent suffered a loss. He came out as a mediator, apologized, and paid compensation. It’s just a small matter, and people can’t pursue it, and they have to be thankful that Su Yu came forward to persuade this fool, otherwise it would be troublesome… After hitting someone, others have to thank Su Yu.”

Xia Huyou gasped and said, “He was so black when he was a kid?”

He couldn’t help but ask, “Is his father black?”

“His father… I’m not sure, he seems okay.”
Lord Xia Hou also checked some information, but he didn’t see anything from the information. He quickly said, “This is also something you should learn! After dealing with your opponent, the opponent still has to thank you. Apologize lightly, and those who slandered you in the past will not slander you in the future, and will also say that you are a good person…”

Xia Huyu nodded and said with a smile, “Second Grandpa, then how should we talk to Su Yu next?”

“Talk about what?”

“Talk about the Aperture Combination Technique!”

“Get lost!”

Lord Xia Hou scolded, “Idiot, the Aperture Combination Technique is a one-time deal, what’s there to talk about? Just wait! Your Second Grandpa won’t talk about this!”

“…”

Xia Huyu glanced at Lord Xia Hou, not knowing what to say. He was a little emotional, it seems that I still need to practice more. I thought I had received the true teachings, but now it seems, not necessarily!

…………

Outside the Yuan Shen Research Institute.

At this moment, a carriage stopped.

In the carriage, Lord Xia Hou curled his lips, opened the curtain, and looked towards the Cultivation Pavilion, whispering, “I’m here to take a look, don’t stare at me, monitoring the Acting Mansion Lord is treason!”

Silence.

“Tch!”

Lord Xia Hou ignored it, got out of the car, swayed his body, and walked inside.

Inside the Genshin Research Institute.

Su Yu’s eyes flickered, he got up and walked towards the door.

Lord Xia Hou stood at the door, glanced at the sign, and said with emotion, “Lan Tian… Su Yu.”

The Lan Tian Research Institute of the past is memorable.

Today’s Yuan Shen Research Institute may be even more unforgettable.

He stood for a while, and Su Yu came to the door. As soon as he saw Lord Xia Hou, he bowed and saluted, “Greetings, Lord Hou!”

“Don’t be polite!”

Lord Xia Hou laughed, stepped forward, helped him up, and said with a smile, “Didn’t you say that Huyu’s grandfather is your grandfather? Good, grandson, don’t salute, just call me Grandpa next time you see me!”

Su Yu’s face stiffened.

Lord Xia Hou said with a smile, “Grandson, let’s go, let’s take a look at my grandson’s research institute! I used to regret that I didn’t have a grandson, Huyu is not my grandson after all, now I have one!”

“…”

Su Yu… Su Yu at this moment was speechless.

Calming himself down, Su Yu said with a smile on his face, “Yes, Grandpa! Grandpa, how about I take you to see the academy? Let’s take a look around the academy, you haven’t been to the academy for a while, have you?”

As he spoke, he took his arm with a smile on his face.

Grandpa… whatever you say.

Lord Xia Hou said with a smile, “Then forget it, by the way, why did you install a monitor at the door?”

“Grandpa, it’s nothing, it’s just to monitor if anyone breaks into our research institute.”

Lord Xia Hou smiled and said, “That’s good, by the way, you wouldn’t be recording anything, would you? For example, the scene of me and you now, if it’s recorded, it will appear outside your research institute tomorrow, and a large screen will be hung up, and the friendly exchange between you and me will soon spread throughout the Great Xia Mansion, right?”

Su Yu’s eyelids twitched and he said with a smile, “Nothing like that, Grandpa, don’t think too much, I know your identity is special and can’t be spread around.”

I just want to send it to Xia Chan to see!

Yes, it’s enough if Xia Chan sees it.

If she sees it, and then I find an opportunity to call her sister, she probably won’t be embarrassed to refuse, right?

For example, in front of Zhou Mingren, how about it?

Lord Xia Hou looked at him with a smile, Su Yu had a gentle face, with three points of restraint, three points of affection, and three points of gentleness… a thorough Confucian civilization master.

“The younger generation is formidable!”

Lord Xia Hou said with emotion, it seems that he didn’t get any advantage in the first round of the confrontation.

He’s shameless!

He doesn’t care if you call him grandson, what can you do?

Geniuses should be somewhat self-respecting, right?

Shouldn’t they have some pride?

Su Yu… doesn’t have any!

People like this are not easy to deal with.

Lord Xia Hou thought in his heart, and then looked at the others in the hall. The girl from the Wu family looked at him and Su Yu with a strange expression. Obviously, there’s no need to record it, maybe the news that he and Su Yu are as close as a family will spread from this girl’s mouth.

Hu Qiusheng and the others were a little restrained. Seeing Su Yu helping Lord Xia Hou enter the door, they all bowed and greeted, “Greetings, Lord Hou!”

“Don’t be polite!”

Lord Xia Hou said with a smile, “We are all family, people from the Great Xia Mansion are all our own people, you young people are doing a great job, the younger generation is formidable, you are doing a great job!”

After praising them a few times, he looked at Wu Lan again and said with a smile, “You are the little girl from the Wu family, right? Say hello to your great-grandmother for me, I haven’t seen her for many years, tell her to relax, and when she reaches the Sun and Moon realm, don’t be too anxious.”

Wu Lan nodded quickly, and Lord Xia Hou said with a smile, “You are also a good child, I heard that you overcame difficulties this time, very good, the Wu family’s women are not inferior to men! A family of heroines, Grandpa Xia is optimistic about your future!”

“Thank you, Grandpa Xia!”

Wu Lan’s mouth was about to split open, and she could hardly restrain her smile!

Lord Xia Hou praised me!

Although Great-Grandmother said that Lord Xia Hou is not a good person, it doesn’t matter, Lord Xia Hou is a big shot, he praised me, so he is a good person!

Lord Xia Hou is tired!

I am a Sun and Moon realm expert!

What is this little girl muttering about!

Your whole family are not good people, and your great-grandmother is even more not a good person!

After speaking to Wu Lan, Lord Xia Hou quickly looked at Wu Jia and said with a smile, “You are Wu Jia, right? I saw you when you were a child, also a good one!”

Lord Xia Hou said with emotion, “A family of heroes! Your parents died for the Xia family in the battle against the Myriad Races Sect, also descendants of heroes, you are also doing a great job now, I heard that you also put in a lot of effort this time… For your parents’ side, the Great Xia Hall of Heroes can leave a place for your parents!”

As soon as he said this, Wu Jia suddenly burst into tears!

In the next moment, she sobbed uncontrollably.
Su Yu frowned slightly, glanced at Marquis Xia, and quickly stepped forward to comfort Wu Jia, whispering, “Senior Sister, don’t cry, it’s a good thing! Uncle and Aunt can enter the Hall of Valor, and from now on, you are a daughter of the Xia family! The Xia Mansion has a family motto since its opening: descendants of the Hall of Valor will be supported by the Xia family as if they were their own children! Quickly call Grandpa…”

“Grandpa…”

Wu Jia choked.

Hall of Valor!

That is the opportunity only available to heroes who have made outstanding contributions to the Xia Mansion and died in battle or in other ways.

Wu Jia’s parents were not qualified to enter before.

Although they died to resist the Wan Clan Sect’s assassination, they did not die for official duties. Of course, if you want to be strict, Chen Yong was a researcher, and Wu Jia’s parents were the strong guards of the year, guarding Chen Yong out of the mansion, which can be regarded as official duties and regarded as martyrdom.

Based on this, they are also qualified to enter, but the requirements for entering the Hall of Valor are relatively high, and it is reasonable not to enter.

Su Yu wanted to curse secretly in his heart, but quickly dismissed the idea.

Can’t scold!

Marquis Xia is really ruthless, hitting the snake seven inches as soon as he comes!

Wu Jia and Wu Lan are considered hopeless now, but fortunately, they don’t expect these two to do anything.

Otherwise, these two would be fooled.

Marquis Xia always had a smile on his face, very amiable. Seeing Su Yu comforting her, he quickly smiled and said, “Girl, don’t cry, this is what our Xia family should do. It’s a little late, but you have to understand that the Xia family also has difficulties.”

The difficulty is that Wu Jia’s parents died to protect Chen Yong, and Chen Yong went out of the mansion that year… not for official duties, so it’s hard to say.

The identity of the descendants of the Hall of Valor is a protection.

With this identity, at least Zhou Pingsheng would not dare to target Wu Jia so much before. Entering the Hall of Valor and being registered under the Xia family, King Xia promised that the Xia family would support the family members of the heroes!

Targeting the descendants of heroes, if it gets out of hand, is asking for death.

The Xia Mansion’s generation after generation of strong men have fought in all directions, just for the sake of stability in the rear. The Xia family gives extremely high courtesy and compensation to the soldiers who died in battle. The treasury is empty, and most of it is spent on these things.

Su Yu didn’t know what to say, and sighed in his heart.

That’s good too!

If Senior Sister’s parents have a name in the Hall of Valor, at least there will be fewer targets, of course, it doesn’t matter whether there are fewer targets, the main thing is that safety is guaranteed to a certain extent. Killing Wu Jia is very different from killing a descendant of a hero.

If it gets out of hand, the Xia Mansion must come forward to appease and suppress some people to appease the military and the people.

At that time, some people will have to lose their heads!

Marquis Xia glanced at Su Yu and smiled.

His eyes seemed to be able to speak!

“Is the face I’m giving enough?”

Your senior sister’s parents really want to enter the Hall of Valor, but they are still a little short of qualifications.

Su Yu didn’t say anything and cupped his hands at Marquis Xia as a thank you.

“Grandson, shall we talk alone?”

“…”

Su Yu smiled bitterly and nodded, “Lord Marquis, please!”

He didn’t call him Grandpa anymore, it was disgusting!

If it wasn’t bad to think wildly, he would want to curse at this moment.

…………

First floor, tea room.

Xia Huyu was there, and Marquis Xia was also there. Su Yu poured tea for them, looking humble and amiable.

After pouring the tea, Su Yu sat down.

Marquis Xia smiled and said, “We are all family, and family doesn’t talk about two families. Talking about money hurts feelings. The 300,000 merit points that your grandmaster owes can be waived. All three versions of the Combination Acupoint Method belong to the Xia family. How about that?”

Su Yu smiled honestly, “Lord Marquis… this… why don’t we mortgage the Wen Tan Research Center instead.”

I don’t admit it!

It’s not me who owes it anyway!

Marquis Xia smiled, “Then let’s not talk about money anymore. The safety of your father and your two teachers will be protected by people I send, plus the debt of 300,000 merit points will be offset. Are three copies enough?”

“…”

Enough?

Su Yu sighed in his heart and said softly, “Enough!”

Marquis Xia smiled, “Don’t think I’m coercing you. Protecting your father is what we should do. The soldiers of the Xia Mansion are of course protected by the Xia family, but protecting criminals is not what we should do. The Vanguard Camp is also called the Suicide Camp and the Criminal Camp. That’s extra, understand?”

“Understood!”

Marquis Xia said with a smile, “I said it, we are all family, and family doesn’t talk about two families. The Xia family doesn’t covet some things! We even keep it secret for you! Does the Xia family not know what you obtained in Nan Yuan? We know, but the Xia family has its own bottom line. That’s yours, we don’t covet it! If we really want to rob you, can you stop it?”

Su Yu was slightly startled in his heart!

But he didn’t dare to think wildly!

Marquis Xia’s eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled, scaring you to death!

Afraid we will rob your ruins, right?

“You can deduce these cultivation methods, and it has a lot to do with that thing, right?”

Marquis Xia said with a smile, “But the Xia family is willing to trade fairly and doesn’t want to use any crooked methods, because we are an invincible family, a family that is the backbone of the human race, and protecting one side of humanity is the purpose of the Xia family’s opening of the mansion!”

Su Yu nodded.

Marquis Xia continued, “Moreover, if you give the things to the Xia family, the Xia family can better exert the role of these things. How many people can you teach this cultivation method to? What can you gain by teaching it? It can only bring you some trouble, maybe some insignificant gratitude!”

Su Yu nodded and sighed, “Lord Marquis is right. I also know the trouble in this, so I will never create any cultivation methods again in the future. It will only bring me trouble. I still won’t create them!”

“…”

Marquis Xia smiled, turning the tables on me!

Alright!

“Then there’s no need, the Xia family should still give what they should give.”

Marquis Xia smiled and said, “In this way, I will give you a promise on behalf of the Xia family, but the premise is that if there is anything good in the future, consider the Xia family first.”

“What does Lord Marquis mean…”
Xia Houye was unhurried, took a sip of tea, and slowly said, “It’s simple. Great Xia King, that is, my old man, you should also know that his strength is not bad. The trouble with your faction is that someone is watching… If that guy makes a move again, as long as we grab the handle, the old man is willing to take action!”

“Even if he doesn’t take action, if you have evidence, the old man is willing to take action, how about that?”

Su Yu frowned, “If there really is evidence…”

Xia Houye interrupted, “If there really is evidence, do you think other Invincibles would be willing to take action? Would be willing to kill the other party? What are you thinking? Fifth Generation died! The dead Fifth Generation is not as good as a living Invincible! As long as that one no longer targets the human race… some people will be willing to forgive the other party!”

Xia Houye said coldly, “That’s the truth! Let me put it more realistically, for example, you. You killed someone outside, a weak person, in the wilderness, and later it was found out, would they make you pay for their life?”

Xia Houye said coldly, “No! Even if the evidence is conclusive, even if the other party is also a small genius, even if you killed them on purpose… in all likelihood, you will be assigned to the Vanguard Camp! Su Yu, do you think that’s fair?”

“It’s not fair.”

Su Yu’s tone was low.

“That’s right, it’s not fair! It would be fair to make you pay for their life! But… from your perspective, from everyone’s perspective, from the perspective of those Invincibles, making you, Su Yu, pay for the life of a dead person who is far inferior to you… it’s better to give you a chance!”

Xia Houye sighed, “That’s reality! Bloody reality! When that day really comes, do you really think everyone will kill an Invincible to pay for the life of Fifth Generation? At most, they will let the other party fight with an enemy Invincible, killing an Invincible to atone for their crime! If the old man doesn’t take action to help you, who can you rely on?”

Su Yu was speechless at this moment.

Yes, this is reality!

Xia Houye’s promise was not just empty talk. At that time, only Great Xia King would be likely to take action to sanction the other party!

“I understand!”

Su Yu sighed, nodded, “What Marquis said is right, then I agree! We can provide it to the Xia family first, and the Xia family will pay the corresponding price!”

“Good!”

Xia Houye smiled, “Don’t feel wronged, don’t feel like you’re losing out. To be honest, the Xia family can also turn a blind eye… Do you really think it’s so simple to deal with an Invincible? One wrong move… if the old man can’t restrain them, the entire Xia family will be wiped out, who will bear the responsibility? Saying it’s a promise to you, it’s more like a regret for Fifth Generation, and the old man’s hatred of evil!”

“Great Xia King, a hero!”

Su Yu flattered him.

I have to say, Xia Houye… is really good at talking.

Alas!

Didn’t get any advantages!

Coercion and inducement, the big stick and the carrot, all used on you.

Xia Houye smiled, “Su Yu, do you have any other requests?”

“Yes, the Xia family can take three versions of the Acupoint Combination Method, but the highest version, except for the direct descendants of the Xia family, anyone who passes it on to others must get my consent, and also pay extra!”

Xia Houye raised his eyebrows, still have to pay?

“I arranged for people to protect Liu Wenyan and Bai Feng…”

Su Yu said calmly, “So I gave you the middle and low versions, and I didn’t say I wanted money! 300,000 debt… that’s the money for the backup! Also, if you really think you’re losing out, then you don’t have to protect them. Even the Vanguard Camp, which is being watched by the Invincible, has problems, then I can only say… this human realm has no light at all, it’s all darkness everywhere, I think… there’s no need to struggle, I’ll just relax and wait to die.”

Xia Houye was speechless.

Su Yu continued, “Also, the middle and low versions must be named ‘Double Wu Acupoint Combination Method’, from the Yuanshen Research Institute, it is a product of our Yuanshen Research Institute, it must be noted! Not to mention the middle version, after the low version is promoted, it must be clearly marked that it comes from the Yuanshen Research Institute! Also, after the middle and low versions of the Acupoint Combination Method are promoted, for every person promoted, my Yuanshen Research Institute will receive 1 merit point, this request is not too much, right?”

“Research and development also costs money!”

Xia Houye said unhappily, “300,000 merit points… plus protecting your two teachers, you’re charging multiple fees?”

Su Yu shook his head and said, “No, the 1 merit point I’m charging is considered a copyright fee. You marked that it comes from the Yuanshen Research Institute, and borrowed our reputation to make a profit, is it too much to pay 1 merit point?”

“…”

Damn!

Can you calculate it like that?

You yourself asked to mark that it comes from the Yuanshen Research Institute, and now you’re saying that marking it requires a fee, then why should I mark it!

Su Yu was still calm, looked at Xia Houye, and said seriously, “Because in the near future, the Yuanshen Research Institute will be a well-known research institute in the human realm and even the myriad realms, a guarantee of credibility. There are also Acupoint Combination Methods on the market, why should others choose ours? Because of the Yuanshen Research Institute brand!”

“What big words!”

Xia Houye laughed, “You’re so confident!”

Su Yu nodded, “Yes, I’m confident! If you’re not confident, Marquis can also let the Xia family launch an Acupoint Combination Method!”

“…”

Xia Houye laughed again, “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll hold a grudge?”

“Marquis has a generous mind and naturally won’t hold a grudge. If you really hold a grudge, then you wouldn’t be Marquis. Business is not a one-time thing, it’s a long-term thing. If you’re not willing to suffer a loss once, how can you do it for a long time?”

Su Yu smiled, “If I suffer a loss this time, I will think next time, if I research a cultivation method, and I can’t make money, why should I take it out? Isn’t it better for me to cultivate myself? If I take it out, I still have to suffer, why bother!”

“If Marquis takes a step back today, in exchange for greater cooperation space in the future!”

Xia Houye smiled, “Interesting, after you ascend to the sky, how about coming to the Xia family?”

“Sure!”

Su Yu was very straightforward, Xia Huyu hurriedly said, “Second Grandpa, he’s going to provoke those enemies of the Polytheistic Script faction, and may even cause trouble for the Zhou family, which would be very troublesome for us!”

Xia Houye laughed, kicked him directly, and said with a smile, “What are you afraid of! Let him provoke them! Smart people know what they are paying and what they are getting. If he provokes the Zhou family, he has to create a greater price for us than the trouble caused by provoking the Zhou family! Do you understand?”

“Why does the Xia family protect him?”
Marquis Xiahou smiled and said, “Because his value is greater than the Zhou family’s. For example, he creates tens of billions of merit points for me every year. If he provokes the Zhou family, I can just have your great-grandfather fight a few battles. We get to fight and make money, what’s not to love! Su Yu, wouldn’t you say?”

Su Yu smiled wryly, he couldn’t argue with that.

Marquis Xiahou chuckled, “The Xia family won’t help him kill people. If he has the ability to kill an Invincible, that’s his skill. If he provokes them, we can just protect his life. The Xia family won’t lose out on an equal exchange!”

As he spoke, he looked at Xia Huyou with a sigh, “Foolish grandson!”

“What are you thinking!”

“We’re not afraid of the Zhou family. If they’re offended, so be it. Your great-grandfather and your father are free labor. We let them fight, and we collect the money. Why would you refuse?”

“Just treat it as a friendly spar!”

“A free spar, that’s a way to make money.”

“The Xia family is wary of the Zhou family? The Zhou family isn’t wary of my Xia family?”

“Don’t be ridiculous!”

Su Yu laughed as well, “Marquis is wise! Compared to Brother Xia, Marquis is the role model for our generation!”

Marquis Xiahou smiled, “You mentioned all this, why not just have the Xia family protect you directly?”

“No need.”

Su Yu grinned.

Marquis Xiahou smiled as well. Yes, no need, because… we have to protect him, what if he dies!

“Wouldn’t that be a huge loss!”

“This kid still has a lot of good stuff in his head that we haven’t gotten out yet. If he dies, that’s a loss.”

Marquis Xiahou stopped talking business and continued to drink tea, sighing, “So young, and you’re delving into so much, can you handle it?”

Su Yu smiled, “It’s alright. Actually, I haven’t delved into much. I just didn’t want to be bullied since I was a kid. These days, some people just like to bully others, especially kids without mothers. Some guys, I don’t know why, just like to do such immoral things!”

“The baseness of human nature!”

Marquis Xiahou smiled, “Yes, everyone has a hard time. Alright, this was a very pleasant conversation. Is there anything else you want to sell? Like literary skills or something…”

“I’m not short of money for now.”

Marquis Xiahou laughed, “It’s not necessarily money, heavenly treasures, secret realm opportunities, willpower texts… If you need anything, just ask, the Xia family still has some capital!”

Su Yu smiled, “I don’t need anything for now. I’ll come to Marquis if I do.”

“Alright!”

Marquis Xiahou stood up, thought for a moment, and smiled, “That relic in Nan Yuan, if we find it, we’ll split it three-seven, you get three, we get seven, how about it?”

“…”

Su Yu remained calm, not even thinking about it, and smiled, “I don’t understand what Marquis means!”

“Then forget it, find me when you need to. That relic… is a bit interesting, I underestimated it before!”

“…”

Marquis Xiahou smiled, got up, and left, Xia Huyou hurriedly followed.

Su Yu suppressed all the thoughts in his heart!

Although Sun and Moon realm cultivators can’t sense anything else, only things about themselves, but… he wouldn’t think about it, just in case.

Relic!

“Right, relic, I can’t expose the relic…”

Su Yu thought frantically!

He escorted Marquis Xiahou to the door, and even as Marquis Xiahou’s carriage left and drove far away, Su Yu was still thinking, “Right, I discovered a relic in Nan Yuan, I discovered a relic, that’s why I am who I am today, that’s why I have these special abilities…”

Relic!

He held it in for a long, long time before Su Yu cursed in his heart, “Relic, my ass!”

How come I don’t know there’s a relic!

Did this illustrated manual come from a relic?

He wasn’t sure, but Su Yu thought it was unlikely. Or rather, there really was a relic, and he didn’t discover it, but by accident, he obtained this illustrated manual as a child?

Who knows what’s true or false!

Obviously, Marquis Xiahou thought he had obtained a relic inheritance.

At this moment, Su Yu became interested in relics as well.

Relics… are they that amazing?

I deduced such a powerful cultivation technique, and it can all be attributed to the relic. Marquis Xiahou didn’t even doubt it, thinking the relic had that ability. Then this relic must be too amazing!
