Chapter 2156 - 2253: That’s Good (4th Update)
Afternoon.
"Miss..."
"Don’t call me Miss, call me Yuee’er."
"Yuee’er, I want to visit the Holy Mountain." Su Chen spoke up.
Sikong Yu was taken aback, then fell silent for a while, before quietly asking, "Su Chen, is this... the reason why you became my fighter?"
Su Chen didn’t answer; he didn’t know how to respond.
It seemed there was indeed some element of using Sikong Yu.
His interaction with Sikong Yu was indeed to gain access to the Holy Mountain through her.
Su Chen could tell that this girl admired him, and there was even some affection.
Moreover, this girl was genuinely good to him.
"Su Chen, I thought you became my fighter for some other reason, scared me to death." Sikong Yu suddenly laughed the next moment, beautifully and confidently, with a hint of pride: "Turns out, you just want to visit the Holy Mountain!"
Sikong Yu wasn’t a fool.
Su Chen, a monster of such caliber, becoming her fighter must have a purpose.
Because of this, deep down, she was somewhat worried.
Worried that Su Chen’s purpose was something more difficult or something she couldn’t do.
Unexpectedly, he just wanted to visit the Holy Mountain.
This wasn’t difficult.
"Aren’t you curious about what I’m going to do at the Holy Mountain?" Su Chen asked curiously.
"No need to ask, I support you anyway." Sikong Yu said, suddenly standing on tiptoe, and kissed Su Chen on the cheek, then lowered her head, her face blushing instantly, her eyelashes fluttering.
Sikong Yu really felt she liked Su Chen.
Just that simple fondness.
Su Chen is strong, monstrous, helps her, spoils her, gives her face, and can protect her, she feels a strong sense of security around him, etc.
She just liked Su Chen.
Just that fast.
Heartbeat comes just that quickly.
"Young boy Su, I feel you have quite a knack for charming your way." Jiuyou teased, every time, whenever you need help from a girl, you end up winning her over.
"Cough... it’s not intentional." Su Chen was somewhat embarrassed, he indeed didn’t mean it, but he didn’t know how much attraction his domineering, assertive protection, his monstrous nature, his overwhelming force had on girls, especially on simple girls like Sikong Yu.
"It’s actually a good thing. Once Yuan Yu is dealt with, then the Jiuyou Domain would be leaderless. It would be perfect to put Sikong Yu on top." Jiuyou commented.
"Huh? Jiuyou, after Yuan Yu is gone, aren’t you going to reclaim the position of Lord of Jiuyou Domain?" Su Chen was a bit surprised; he always thought Jiuyou’s return was to take back her rightful position.
"I have no interest in being the Territory Master; I came back just to have you avenge me. Once that’s done, I’ll continue adventuring with you. That’s what’s interesting. Being stuck in Jiuyou Domain is not an option." Jiuyou snorted arrogantly: "Now with Sikong Yu here, I feel relieved."
"Su Chen, was I... was I being too forward, I..." At this moment, while Su Chen was interacting with Jiuyou, he overlooked Sikong Yu, and Sikong Yu was already teary-eyed, she had summoned the courage to kiss Su Chen, this was her first kiss, she thought Su Chen would respond after she kissed him, unexpectedly...
Indeed, such a monster can’t possibly take an interest in me, a mere young lady?
"Let’s go back." Su Chen comforted Sikong Yu by patting her head.
Instantly, Sikong Yu was happy again, tears turned to laughter.
She enjoyed Su Chen patting her head; it was a very intimate gesture.
Afternoon.
"Su Chen, the Holy Mountain is also known as Jiuyou Mountain." Sikong Yu earnestly looked at Su Chen, saying: "The word Jiuyou in Jiuyou Mountain, I heard from my grandfather, belonged to the first Lord of Jiuyou Domain. But between the current Domain Lord Yuanyu Honored Lady and Jiuyou, something seemed to have happened, so Yuanyu Honored Lady apparently doesn’t like hearing anyone mention Jiuyou. Moreover, it’s rumored that Jiuyou Mountain has a close connection with the first Domain Lord Jiuyou. That’s why fewer people visit Jiuyou Mountain. And Yuanyu Honored Lady once issued an order that anyone wanting to enter Jiuyou Mountain must report to her."
Su Chen’s expression slightly changed.
Must report to Yuanyu Honored Lady?
That definitely won’t work.
"However, with me here, you don’t need to report; you can enter Jiuyou Mountain." Sikong Yu continued: "Those guards watching over Jiuyou Mountain are quite afraid of me."
"If you take me into Jiuyou Mountain without authorization, and Yuanyu Honored Lady finds out, won’t you..." Su Chen isn’t the kind of person who disregards others’ wellbeing, he can’t just enter Jiuyou Mountain, and then have Yuanyu Honored Lady trouble Sikong Yu, if Sikong Yu gets hurt, he would regret it.
"Don’t worry, first of all, Yuanyu Honored Lady is in secluded cultivation, and she’s been in Secluded Cultivation for thirty-six thousand years. Her current secluded cultivation is to break from Domain Lord Realm Third Layer to Fourth Level Realm, which might take quite some time. Secondly, even if she emerges from secluded cultivation and finds out I privately let someone into Jiuyou Mountain, at most she would scold me, but wouldn’t do anything more. I’m grandfather’s sole granddaughter, even as a Territory Master, she wouldn’t dare to touch me carelessly, otherwise the Sikong House would be in an undying determination with the Territory Master. The Sikong House is one of the Three Factions, and it carries significant weight."
Su Chen nodded.
And Jiuyou also spoke: "Yes, this girl is clever. She’s right, even if Yuan Yu finds out she let you into Jiuyou Mountain, Yuan Yu wouldn’t dare to actually harm her, the Three Factions are deeply rooted in Jiuyou Domain, with enormous hidden strength. Even Yuan Yu wouldn’t lightly tear her face away with the Sikong House. As far as I know, although small friction occurs frequently between the Three Factions, if it ever reaches a life-and-death situation, the Three Factions would definitely unite. When it comes to matters of survival, Sikong Zhan, Wang Duan, and Hong Yicang all understand. So, this girl is absolutely safe."
"That’s good." Su Chen felt much more at ease.
"Also, Su Chen, I’ve sneaked into grandfather’s Ancient Texts Pavilion and found some information about Jiuyou Mountain." Sikong Yu continued: "Jiuyou Mountain is divided into Upper San You, Middle San You, and Lower San You. You can go to the Middle San You and Lower San You. But you absolutely can’t go to Upper San You. The ancient tome doesn’t detail the specific dangers of Upper San You, but it does mention a group of old monsters, all in the Domain Master Realm, who went to Upper San You, and in the end, none survived to return."
Sikong Yu looked very serious.
She genuinely cared about Su Chen.
"This girl indeed cares about you. Information like this could only be found in Sikong Zhan’s Scripture Pavilion. Upper San You is indeed dangerous because it is where the Jiuyou Deathfire Seed is located." Jiuyou said: "What you need to go to is Upper San You."
