Chapter 283 The Might of a Martial Sage! (1)
Among the five major martial arts families in the Yu Nation, other than the Xia Family, the other four all had a history that exceeded a thousand years.
The Xia Family was the imperial family to begin with. Hundreds of years of acc.u.mulation made it that even in their decline and loss of power, their foundation was still terrifying.
Needless to say, the famous Golden Family, the Golden Bloodline, had unparalleled combat strength.
The Yu Family.
!!
To be honest, Su Jingxing wasn’t sure. Compared to the Xia and Chen families, the Yu Family was much more low-profile. For a thousand years, they had been quietly developing and strengthening themselves.
a
As long as one did not provoke them, the Yu Family rarely made a move.
The Qinghe Li Family was able to build a relationship with the Yu Family. No wonder they remained standing for hundreds of years.
They managed to safely ride through the few major troubles encountered in the middle.
At that time, no one knew the reason. Now, he knew that the Yu Family was behind helping them.
Su Jingxing had captured the Li Family’s Ninth Elder because he wanted to get one or two items that the First Elder had used from him. Unexpectedly, he had obtained a lot of secrets.
Su Jingxing was a little embarra.s.sed to kill him now. Forget it, I’ll just cripple him. Cripple his tool and break his hands so that the old fellow can only see and not touch anyone in the future.
With this in mind, Su Jingxing put away the Five Souls Ring and the Essence Soul left the Ninth Elder’s sea of consciousness.
Hu! Hu!
The Li Family’s Ninth Elder opened his eyes and panted heavily. He scanned his surroundings and realized that Su Jingxing was still around.
He immediately screamed, “You’re not human, you’re not human, you’re not human!!”
Accompanied by the dragging sound of the word “human”, he self-destructed with a dull thud, turning into a rain of flesh and blood that scattered in the air.
He had already planned to let him off, but the old fellow actually self-destructed.
Was he scared out of his wits?
Afraid that Su Jingxing would imprison and incinerate his soul again?
Therefore, he simply chose to self-destruct.
He would rather die than suffer the feeling of his soul being burned again.
Fine.
Su Jingxing nodded and released his true essence. It transformed into true energy and burned his blood and flesh.
At the same time, he extracted a card.
After that, he rose into the air and flew south.
The Li Family’s First Elder’s seclusion location might be in the Thunder Cloud Tower of Nanfu Mountain.
Now that he knew the general location, either by using divination or directly scanning the area like a radar using the Essence Soul, he’d be able to find him.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the Li Family’s First Elder was really in Nanfu Mountain!
Nanfu Mountain was located about 30 miles south of Qinghe City.
Su Jingxing flew over. Instead of landing on the mountain directly, he landed in advance and approached silently along the forest.
Since the Li Family had established a secret base in Nanfu Mountain, they must have surveillance around.
Su Jingxing didn’t want to alert the enemy, nor did he want to bust the Li Family’s secret base.
His goal was only to obtain the circular ring.
Therefore, it was best if no one died.
He would go up the mountain, find the secret base, sneak into it, get the circular ring, and retreat!
The plan was this simple.
Su Jingxing followed the steps perfectly.
After arriving at Nanfu Mountain silently, he avoided the cameras in the open and in the dark. He found a remote corner and operated the Six Comets Records to divine the location of the base.
However, halfway through his divination, he heard a strange sound coming from afar.
Crack!
Accompanied by a sound, a figure flashed from the mountainside and soared into the sky. “That is?”
Su Jingxing’s eyes flickered with surprise.
No way, what a coincidence?
The Li Family’s First Elder!
Su Jingxing had searched for photos of this First Elder online and knew what he looked like.
He was looking for him and he had actually appeared on his own.
The self-destructed Ninth Elder was right. This First Elder was really cultivating in seclusion in Nanfu Mountain.
The source of the sound was the entrance to the secret base.
The location of the base was automatically exposed.
However, Su Jingxing didn’t want to go to the base anymore. Instead, he wanted to follow the Li Family’s First Elder.
Isn’t this First Elder in seclusion all year round? Why did he suddenly leave?
Out for something?
Or…
With a thought, Su Jingxing decisively stopped circulating the Six Comets Records and silently chased after the Li Family’s First Elder.
He followed the aura left behind by the First Elder and quickly shuttled through the forest.
He released his powerful perception and locked onto him.
Then, Su Jingxing realized that the First Elder had gone up the mountain.
No, to be precise, he was rushing to the Thunder Cloud Tower.
The Thunder Cloud Tower was an ancient stone tower that had existed for more than 3,000 years. It had long been dilapidated and no longer had the grandness from 3,000 years ago.
More than 3,000 years ago, the Thunder Cloud Tower was a thousand feet tall and was an important stronghold for a large faction.
Now, it was less than 100 feet tall and was full of holes.
Su Jingxing chased after the First Elder and arrived outside the Thunder Cloud Tower. He restrained his aura and retracted his perception to a certain range. He circulated his secret ability and listened to the movements.
There was already someone waiting under the Thunder Cloud Tower.
The Li Family’s First Elder had come out to see him.
“Long time no see, Brother Si. I’ve missed you,” greeted the First Elder with a smile.
“That’s right. It’s been more than 10 years since we last met, Brother Li. You’ve finally succeeded.” The person waiting sighed.
“Haha, it was all luck. Luck played a big role in me breaking through to the third-grade. The remaining half was thanks to Elder Yu. Without his guidance and the treasure map he provided for me to study at will, I would never have been able to advance to the third-grade in my life.”
The Li Family’s First Elder with a big smile.
“That’s also because of your capabilities. When the opportunity comes, you will naturally succeed.” The person waiting also chuckled.
