Chapter 1012: Exclusive Secret Recipe!
The words spoken by this practitioner sparked contemplation among many of his companions.
They couldn’t make sense of what kind of background and identity this young man had, to be able to have several Beast Emperors following him. It was completely beyond their understanding.
Similar discussions often took place among various small and large forces and independent cultivators nearby. Many were astounded by what Su Yi had done.
Of course, Su Yi had only just arrived in the Chaos Realm and hadn’t interacted with outsiders much, aside from Ji Hanluo and Ji Tianfu from the Mysterious Sword Gate. Only Shopkeeper Xiahou from the Lingbao Pavilion knew his name.
Thus, people from the Seven Star Sword Sect and the Golden Sword Sect referred to Su Yi as “little scraps” or “little rascals.”
“Su Yi, that kid is really something. Since he appeared, there’s been no peace around here! Even the three Beast Emperors willingly follow him—it’s unbelievable! And Huang Jian, it seems he only broke through to the Yuan Emperor Realm after meeting him!”
In a valley, the people of the Mysterious Sword Gate had gathered. Ji Tianfu stood on a large rock, muttering to himself with a mix of shock and excitement.
When Su Yi first arrived, he saved his daughter. From that moment, a series of significant events unfolded in the surrounding area. Several sects suffered tremendous losses at his hands.
Moreover, the fact that several imperial-level powerhouses followed him was a puzzle to Ji Tianfu. His greatest shock, however, came from this!
“He’s truly amazing—stronger than I thought, and incredibly bold!”
Beside Ji Tianfu, Ji Hanluo blinked her large eyes, crescent-shaped and shining with a watery brilliance. Her red lips formed a smile.
Ji Tianfu sighed as he gazed at the young girl’s delicate appearance.
“Dad, let’s go out for a while and let everyone gain some experience! We’ll be heading back in a few days, so we need to enhance our strength before the League Conference!”
Ji Hanluo seemed oblivious to her father’s expression and casually spoke to him like that.
“Hanno, did you think Father wouldn’t understand what you’re thinking?”
Ji Tianfu gave Ji Hanluo a glare, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. “Never mind, let’s go and gain some experience again.”
After saying that, Ji Tianfu instructed the disciples to head into the mountains.
Sword Star City, Lingbao Pavilion.
When Shopkeeper Xiahou learned of the commotion caused by Su Yi at the Seven Star Sword Sect’s mine, he wasn’t particularly surprised, though there was still an element of shock.
“Causing trouble everywhere, from the Central Region to the Chaos Realm—wherever he goes, it’s a mess. This kid must have a talent for causing trouble. Whoever opposes him will pay the price!”
Shopkeeper Xiahou muttered to himself, sighing once more. “If the Golden Sword Sect and Seven Star Sword Sect knew that this guy dared to challenge even the Sacred Mountain in the Central Region, they probably wouldn’t have messed with him! But this spectacle is truly exciting! Overlord Su Yi, after shaking up the Central Region, will probably show up at the alliance conference in the Chaos Realm. I’m really looking forward to it!”
His eyes gleamed, and his voice was so quiet that only he could hear it.
Golden Sword Sect.
Yang Baikun, along with a few powerful warriors from the Yuan Emperor Realm, had returned to their sect. Since their narrow escape from the Green Emperor and Yin-yang Dark Emperor, they still carried some lingering fear.
However, today, Yang Baikun received news about the Seven Star Sword Sect. His heart, which had been gloomy before, suddenly felt a strange sense of satisfaction.
Logically speaking, since his son was killed by Su Yi not long ago, Yang Baikun shouldn’t have been feeling this way. But the immense losses suffered at the hands of the Seven Star Sword Sect couldn’t be overlooked—an entire Yuan Stone mine was destroyed by that brat, and two other elders at the Yuan Emperor Realm were killed. This made Yang Baikun feel somewhat better; at least there were others who had it worse than he did!
Although their Golden Sword Sect’s strength still couldn’t rival that of the Seven Star Sword Sect, the gap between them had lessened, and the difference was no longer so vast. With his father’s involvement, the overall power of the Golden Sword Sect would no longer be inferior to the Seven Star Sword Sect’s current strength!
“A Yuan Stone mine suddenly destroyed! That kid is truly mysterious, I wonder what methods he used!”
Yang Baikun’s eyes darkened, filled with intense rage at the thought of Su Yi.
However, he calmed down at this point and reflected on what happened at the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Though the Yuan Stone mine wasn’t extremely large, it wasn’t small either. But, in a very short time, it turned into a pile of rubble. All the Yuan Stone energy dissipated, leaving only ordinary rocks behind.
This method was too elusive, impossible to comprehend.
In fact, this was a question that had occurred not only to Yang Baikun but also to many others in the martial world. But everyone was convinced that there must be something extraordinary about this young man, which caused him to destroy the ancient essence in the mine.
After all, no one dared to believe that the energy of those Yuan Stones could simply vanish into thin air.
Even if that kid was just a cultivator at the first level of the Yuan Void Realm, it would be impossible for him to absorb so much energy all at once. This wasn’t an illusion, but something that simply didn’t make sense.
If someone were to forcefully absorb that much Yuan Stone energy, their body would explode!
If Su Yi were aware of what these people were thinking, he would surely be pleased and loudly declare: “You guys are absolutely right!”
Even he himself wondered if the mysterious space would be exposed this time, at the very least, people might suspect that he possessed a treasure capable of absorbing massive amounts of energy.
Things had turned out well, as others were already formulating explanations for him!
“You brat, for avenging my son Yang Chuan, I, Yang Baikun, will seek my revenge!”
Yang Baikun spoke with a low growl, and with a powerful fist, he struck the stone table beside him, shattering it into pieces.
Then, Yang Baikun raised his head and shouted toward the door, “Someone, send a message to the Seven Star Sword Sect. I want to see Ran Jianxuan!”
“Yes, Master!” A voice answered from outside the door, before silence fell once more.
Yang Baikun’s eyes gleamed with a dark hatred, but his mind was also lost in thought.
Su Yi wandered through the forest, alone and without any company.
He took the opportunity to send Su Xiaoshuai, the Green Emperor, Yin-yang Dark Emperor, Soul Devouring Emperor, and Huang Jian—all five of them—into the mysterious space. Having too many people around could attract unwanted attention and risk exposure.
Su Yi also altered his appearance and aura. Unless someone observed him very closely, his true identity would be almost impossible to detect.
“These people from the Seven Star Sword Sect are like persistent ghosts!”
In the forest, Su Yi found a small stream, cupped his hands, and drank several mouthfuls of water while muttering to himself.
He had been hiding in the forest for two days, yet the Yuan Emperor Realm experts from the Seven Star Sword Sect were still able to faintly follow his trail.
It wasn’t that Su Yi wasn’t skilled at hiding, but he had simply run into bad luck. There were hardly any people around, so the traces he left behind were easily followed, naturally pointing the way for the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Fortunately, it was also difficult for the other side to track him down in this dense forest.
Once Su Yi covered his tracks, he could temporarily escape his pursuers.
“I need to figure out a way to truly shake them off. I can’t lead them to my territory!”
Su Yi was brainstorming solutions. The territory of the Yin-yang Dark Emperor couldn’t be exposed, and the location of Fengjia Village had to remain secret. This was the most troubling issue for Su Yi. He could go back to his territory, but he couldn’t fully avoid being followed.
Having a tail wouldn’t be ideal.
“Let’s just take it one step at a time!”
Unable to come up with a better plan at the moment, Su Yi decided to focus on moving through the mountains and forests, always keeping an eye out for any pursuers!
He was pleased to discover that not long after, he came across a group of people.
With outsiders present, it would be easier for him to throw off the person following him.
After thinking for a moment, Su Yi figured that blending in with these people would be more beneficial for him.
So, he found an open space nearby, hunted a low-level demon beast, and began preparing meat to cook.
“In the past, the elders often said ‘a hungry farmer’s skill won’t fail,’ thinking about it now, this saying is truly wise!”
Su Yi transformed into the appearance of a young man in his twenties. As he roasted meat, he couldn’t help but exclaim to himself, “A person really needs a skill to survive comfortably! Never would I have imagined that my cooking skills would come in handy!”
He smiled as he spoke, his eyes occasionally glancing in a particular direction.
Over there, a group of people had gathered—exactly the same group that Su Yi had noticed earlier.
“Little brother, your method of grilling meat is truly unique. I could smell the aroma from far away!”
Su Yi was pleased when, shortly after, a young man in his late twenties emerged from the crowd and approached him, asking a question.
The young man, while walking toward him, swallowed his saliva and looked eagerly at the large pot nearby.
“The seasonings I use for grilling and making meat soup are my secret recipe. You won’t find them anywhere else, so they’re naturally unique!”
Su Yi smiled confidently when he heard the young man’s question.
In his mind, he thought, as long as they started talking, it would be considered a successful first step.
This was also thanks to the young man’s boldness. If it had been anyone else, it might have been hard to approach with such confidence.
