Chapter 339: Returning (1)

The three continued chatting for a while.

But none of them touched on the previous topic. Those things were too far away from them. It would be honestly quite pointless for them to keep talking about those matters.

Bai Feng suddenly recalled something and said, "Little Yu, have you called my martial uncle yet?"

Su Yu shook his head. He had been too busy recently so he hadn\'t been able to find any time to do so. He hadn\'t even answered Principal Wan\'s invitation. He kept having a feeling that the old man was harboring some bad intentions toward him.

"Call him!" Bai Feng said, "That character of martial uncle-cough, I mean I really miss martial uncle a lot. Invite him over to visit us for a bit. Don\'t you know your manners? You need to show gratitude to my martial uncle who had spent so many years teaching you."

Su Yu was speechless. Bai Feng was clearly intending to study his Teacher Liu. Why bother saying all those lies?

Chen Yong glanced at Bai Feng and couldn\'t even be bothered to say anything. He stood up and said, "I need to leave. Jia is still waiting there. She must be feeling very anxious now. Bye."

Wu Jia had run off with over 8,000 merit points. Chen Yong knew her well. She was probably so anxious and worried of being robbed that she was on the verge of tearing up at the moment. That was too much money. She had never seen that much money before.

"I\'ll transfer the merit points to you later..."

Su Yu was about to generously reject the offer when he recalled how he was in need of merit points as well. Thus, he smiled and said, "Sure. Martial Uncle, I only need 5,000 merit points. You can keep the rest as your fee. I\'ll be getting more money somewhere else."

"Kid..."

Chen Yong laughed. He knew what Su Yu was talking about.

After giving it a thought, he said, "It is not a bad idea to get involved with people from the Xia Family, but remember to not get too involved. Things are not too calm within the Xia Family recently. The prefect is in seclusion to prepare for his breakthrough into the Invincible Realm. The moment he breaks through, a new prefect will be picked. You need to know that a lot of people are eyeing that position. And Xia Yuwen is one of the strongest candidates for that position."

"Xia Yuwen?" Su Yu recalled what Hu Zongji told him before. He hesitated slightly before saying, "Martial Uncle, someone told me that Zhou Pingsheng wanted to replace you as the head manager while the vacant deputy head manager will be given to Xia Yuwen."

"What is he trying to do?" Out of nowhere, Bai Feng raged. "Xia Yuwen! Damn that person! I was wondering why the single character faction is targeting you this year. But is it because of him?"

Bai Feng snorted coldly and gnashed his teeth, "Xia Yuwen! He is quite ambitious, but he should look in a mirror and understand that not everyone is worthy of being a prefect."

Su Yu looked at Bai Feng curiously. It was very rare to see this teacher so angry. At most, this teacher would give some exaggerated reactions from being shocked. He had never seen his teacher so agitated before. This time, his teacher seemed to be really angry.

Noticing Su Yu\'s gaze, Bai Feng snorted, "I admit that Xia Yuwen is very talented. He is definitely very strong. But his heart is too dark and cold. If he becomes the prefect, Great Xia will descend into chaos."

Bai Feng seemed to know even more that he was unwilling to say. He clenched his teeth and said, "Senior Brother, even if you really lose the head manager position to that garbage Zhou Pingsheng, you can\'t allow Xia Yuwen to get anything. Hmph. He sure loves to dream. Why doesn\'t he find a mirror and take a good look at the type of person he is first?"

Chen Yong glanced at Bai Feng. After thinking for a bit, he said, "Xia Yuwen is very talented and strong. He has already entered the Cloudbreach Realm. Back then, he tried roping you in. There is no need for you to show so much hostility to him. Nothing much will change for us regardless of who the new prefect is."

Bai Feng furiously said, "I\'m not a sore loser!"

Both Su Yu and Chen Yong stared at him silently.

That rendered Bai Feng somewhat speechless. He grumbled, "Fine, fine, I\'m not the most graceful of losers. That bastard from the war academy whooped my as-cough, defeated me. I was angry, but I had still acknowledged his strength. But Xia Yuwen is not a good person. Back then, he used a 100-man squad as bait in the Allheaven Battlefield. Damn him. I saw with my own eyes how every last one of them was killed. That person does not mind using human lives as bait.

"When I arrived, he had the nerves to blame me for arriving too early and alerting the enemy. When I reported him to the Devil Subduing Army, that damn fucker actually claimed that he did so for the sake of mission. Damn him!"

Bai Feng kept cursing. He was clearly unhappy with Xia Yuwen. Su Yu couldn\'t quite picture the situation where a 100-man squad was used as bait, so he didn’t feel as strongly about it. But he still found it somewhat distasteful.

While he was thinking that, Bai Feng suddenly asked, "Su Yu, imagine if your father was the leader of that 100-man squad. How would you feel about it?"

Instantly, Su Yu\'s expression changed.

Previously, he still didn\'t feel that strongly about the topic. But now, his eyes turned red as he scolded, "Scumbag! Animal! Is that person even worthy of being a prefect? He should be killed and be fed to the dogs. A piece of shit like this is worthy of being a member of the Xia Family? I reckon he\'s a cult member. He deserves to be killed without mercy the moment anyone sees him."

Bai Feng shrugged at Chen Yong. See? It wasn\'t that he was jealous of Xia Yuwen or that he was a sore loser. Look at the kid. He seemed even angrier.

Su Yu spent some time raging. After a while, he said dispiritedly, "Teacher said that he used a 100-man squad as bait. I didn\'t feel too strongly about it initially. I even felt that perhaps if they could kill an expert doing that, it would be worth it..."

Su Yu reflected on himself, "But when Teacher told me to imagine my father being the leader of this squad. I suddenly understand that only the relevant individuals will understand the pain involved. If Xia Yuwen had succeeded in killing a Cloudbreach enemy with that ploy, he would be lauded as a brilliant tactician after returning to Great Xia. Nobody would put much thought into the sacrificed soldiers..."

Su Yu sighed. Suddenly, he was at a loss. Was Xia Yuwen brilliant? Perhaps there were people who really believed so. With a 100-man squad led by only an Infinite Strength cultivator, he was able to kill a Cloudbreach enemy. Would the military praise him for that performance? Would Great Xia praise him for that performance? It was very likely that he would win more praise than criticism. Who would think about the 100 dead soldiers?

Bai Feng said that Xia Yuwen\'s heart was too dark and cold. Su Yu initially felt that his teacher was speaking out of envy since his teacher had never been able to defeat Xia Yuwen. But when he thought about it again, he found that he had made the right choice in becoming Bai Feng\'s student.

At the very least, his teacher\'s heart was not that cold yet. He wouldn\'t have been so hostile toward Xia Yuwen otherwise. He had been beaten up by someone from the war academy before as well. Yet when he mentioned that person, he was only filled with respect. Thus, Bai Feng was not really a sore loser.

Even Chen Yong started reflecting on himself. What was his first thought when hearing about the bait incident? Did he feel that Xia Yuwen was too cold? Or...did he feel more indifference?

Chen Yong sighed. When he looked at Bai Feng and Su Yu again, he nodded and said nothing. Before this, he still believed that he might be able to build some sort of relationship with Xia Yuwen. But after this conversation, he did not think that it was possible anymore.

Bai Feng and Su Yu would definitely not get along well with Xia Yuwen. Perhaps things would change in the future, but it wouldn\'t happen anytime soon. The hearts of these two were still warm, unlike Xia Yuwen whose heart was already cold.

"I\'ll be leaving. Xia Yuwen is returning soon. Even if you dislike him, do not provoke him. Junior Brother, don\'t forget that you\'re still a Skysoar."

Bai Feng snorted. So what if he was still a Skysoar? Just wait. When he formed his racial ability character, even those in the Cloudbreach Realm wouldn\'t be his match.

Su Yu was wondering if Xia Yuwen had reached an agreement with the single character faction. There was no reason for the single character faction to be working on his behalf otherwise.

What was the position of Vice Principal Xia Changqing in all this? After all, he was a senior from Xia Yuwen\'s branch in the Xia Family.

...

Chen Yong left.

Right after he left, Bai Feng berated, "You are creating trouble again! Kid, you are getting better and better at creating trouble. Just what is your cultivation? Instead of focusing on cultivation, you spend all of your time courting trouble!"

Su Yu had an aggrieved expression. Was he the one courting trouble? Not at all! He was the one who had been constantly targeted by others!

"Just focus on cultivating for now. I already issued a mission to look for your grandteacher. By the way, don\'t forget to call my martial uncle. Trick him into becoming my research subject."

Su Yu was speechless. Then again, he could really consider giving his Teacher Liu a call. It had been a while since they last spoke.

Su Yu took out his communicator and dialed a number. But after a short wait, he shook his head, "No connection."

"No connection? There shouldn\'t be any connection issues within cities. What is happening?"

"No idea."

Su Yu shook his head. Maybe one of those communication stations out in the wilderness had been damaged again.

"Forget it. Just focus on your cultivation. Don\'t go out for no reason."

"Alright."

Su Yu did not argue. It was about time he started focusing on his cultivation again. After receiving the merit points from his martial uncle, he could consider buying more blood essence and cultivate in the grotto. Or he could consider prioritizing the cultivation of his cultural art first.

He still found himself too weak. Wang He, who was ranked 38th in the top 100, was already strong enough to make him feel pressure. Even with a heaven-grade technique, his cultivation level was still much lower in comparison. Thus, he reckoned that he wouldn\'t be a match to those within the top 30.

"Cultural art, Infinite Strength Realm, form new Divine Characters, perfect the character technique..."

Thinking of all the things he needed to do, Su Yu\'s head started aching. Why did it feel like he simply had too many things to cultivate? Perhaps life would be easier if he had chosen to walk the physical path instead? Wouldn\'t it be incredible to use brute force as the solution for everything? That way, he wouldn\'t need to spend so much time learning about Divine Characters.

Su Yu was only musing to himself. Deep inside, he still believed that cultivating both paths was the correct option. As far as he was concerned, warriors were too coarse and boorish. They did not look graceful and cool in combat. As a warrior, he would have a hard time building a good public image for himself.
