“Senior Brother Changyu.”
As Su Changyu opened the door to the room, Ye Ping spoke up.
“Little Junior Brother.”
Su Changyu nodded and picked up the teacup on the table to pour some tea for Ye Ping.
“Senior Brother Changyu, you look a little distracted.”
Ye Ping met up with Su Changyu in the Great Xia Dynasty after he left the King’s Territory.
However, Ye Ping still didn’t know what Su Changyu was at the Great Xia Dynasty for. He had only noticed the changes in Su Changyu’s expression now. After all, Su Changyu had been maintaining a calm expression.
“Nothing, I just had a bad dream.”
Su Changyu shook his head and decided not to talk about that subject.
“Okay.” Ye Ping nodded and looked at Su Changyu.
“Eldest Senior Brother, do we have anything to do in the Great Xia Dynasty this time?”
Ye Ping asked Su Changyu as he didn’t know what Su Changyu was there at the Great Xia Dynasty for.
“To look for a relative.”
Su Changyu answered calmly.
However, his answer surprised Ye Ping.
‘To look for a relative?’
‘Didn’t Master say that Eldest Senior Brother is an orphan?’
Looking at the curiosity in Ye Ping’s eyes, Su Changyu slowly explained, “Do you remember the two people I brought back to the sect with me some time ago?”
Su Changyu said.
“Yes...”
Ye Ping nodded and answered.
“One of them is my father.”
Su Changyu’s tone was calm, and when he mentioned his father, there was no fluctuation in his emotion at all.
“One of them?”
Ye Ping’s gaze was filled with even more curiosity.
“Yes, do you know who it is?”
Su Changyu asked Ye Ping to guess.
“Is it Old Xia?”
Ye Ping said without thinking.
However, those words made Su Changyu shake his head.
“It’s not him, but Old Xuan.”
Su Changyu answered.
After hearing his words, Ye Ping was a little surprised. After all, Su Changyu didn’t resemble Taishang Xuanji at all, but Su Changyu did look a little similar to the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
‘But since Senior Brother said it’s Old Xuan, it should be him, right?’
“Congratulations then, Senior Brother. You’ve finally found your family.”
Ye Ping congratulated Su Changyu. It was a good thing since he had found his biological parents.
However, Su Changyu shook his head and looked at Ye Ping.
“There’s nothing worth congratulating.”
“Although I know my biological father’s identity now, he doesn’t want to acknowledge me.”
Su Changyu sounded melancholic, but his expression was still as composed as ever.
“You’re being serious, Eldest Senior Brother. Which parent in this world wouldn’t want to reconcile with their children?”
Ye Ping tried to persuade him. After all, he couldn’t spout nonsense.
However, Su Changyu sipped on some tea and looked at the traffic outside the window.
“Ye Ping, you have no idea, my father abandoned me and my mother for the sake of marrying a wealthy woman.”
“I actually thought about it once, I just didn’t expect that the reality would be so cruel.”
“But, so be it, I have no ambition or aspiration, I just want to stay in Qingyun Dao Sect.”
“I’m here this time to make a closure.”
“After so many years of cultivation, I’ve seen through a lot of things.”
Su Changyu seemed to have seen through everything.
“Um...”
Ye Ping was at a loss for words.
A moment later, Su Changyu stood up, put the teacup on the table, and looked at Ye Ping.
“Junior Brother, come with me.”
Su Changyu said in a calm tone.
“Where to?”
Ye Ping could not help but ask about it.
“To look for my biological father and make a closure. Then, we’ll head back to the sect together.”
Su Changyu walked out of the room and said.
“Alright.”
Ye Ping didn’t think much about it and left the inn with Su Changyu.
At the same time... in the Crown Prince’s palace.
Xia Qian’s eyes were full of shock after he heard the guard’s words.
“Are you saying that all the people I sent have died and so has the Sect Leader of the Qingyun Dao Sect?”
Xia Qian asked with a frown.
“Your Highness, I discovered their corpses when I went to the Qingyun Dao Sect. The Sect Leader of the Qingyun Dao Sect was one of them.”
“However, according to my judgment, two of them shouldn’t have died because of an intense battle. Our people were killed with a single fatal shot and there weren’t any other wounds. The Sect Leader of the Qingyun Dao Sect was killed by an extremely powerful Sword Qi.”
“The owner of this Sword Qi is at least a powerhouse above the Essence Soul realm.”
The other party knelt on the ground and said so.
‘What’s going on?’
Xia Qian frowned as he really couldn’t think of an answer.
“Your Highness, this matter is actually simple. The Qingyun Dao Sect has offended someone and that person happened to show up at the same time that our people did.”
The guard explained.
Xia Qian nodded slightly.
“Have you taken care of their corpses yet?”
Xia Qian asked without thinking about the problem.
“Please rest assured, Your Highness. I was naturally conscientious.”
The latter nodded.
“Yes, well done, but we must not be involved in any way. Otherwise, we will be in huge trouble.”
“However, it is a pity that Ye Ping was not killed.”
He clenched his fists and seemed indignant.
However, before he could finish those words, a figure suddenly appeared in the hall.
“Reporting!”
“Your Highness, we have discovered Ye Ping’s whereabouts.”
The voice sounded in the hall.
In an instant, Xia Qian sat up with a look of disbelief.
“Where is he?”
He asked anxiously.
“He’s in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, a scout found that Ye Ping had returned from the King’s Territory. There are also clear traces of his appearance in the Great Xia Dynasty.”
The other party answered.
In an instant, Xia Qian was extremely excited.
“Excellent!”
“Excellent!”
“Excellent!”
He couldn’t help but clench his fist. He looked extremely agitated. After all, his goal was Ye Ping.
Previously, he hadn’t found Ye Ping’s whereabouts.
But now, he was naturally excited that Ye Ping was within the capital.
However, Xia Qian soon calmed down.
“Pass my orders and have everyone keep close tabs on Ye Ping. Get close to the crown prince of the Great Ze Dynasty too. The capital is full of experts. Don’t be rash, but once Ye Ping leaves the capital, kill with all means.”
Xia Qian said with determination.
He had already made up his mind.
He didn’t dare to harm Ye Ping in the capital because his father was around. Besides, there were Tribulation Transcendence realm powerhouses in the Great Xia Dynasty. He would be discovered as soon as he appeared.
Hence, it was better to go with the safer option and that was to kill Ye Ping silently.
It wouldn’t matter if his father guessed that he was the culprit. After all, once Ye Ping died, the Emperor Star would shift and that was all he wanted.
At the same time, in the Heart-Nurturing Palace of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Taishang Xuanji came with good news.
“Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty!”
“We’ve found Changyu. We’ve found Changyu!”
