Chapter 526: A Revisionary Gesture!
Su Yi’s attention was immediately drawn to a young man with a clear face and bright, gleaming eyes, giving off a feeling akin to the gentle embrace of a spring breeze.
As if sensing Su Yi’s gaze, the young man turned toward him and even gave a slight nod in acknowledgment. Then, he positioned himself off to the side, acting as though the world around him held no significance.
“Hiss…”
Two chilling gazes shot toward him like swift sword strikes, causing Su Yi’s eyes to flicker. A familiar figure appeared before him, elegantly dressed in orange, her graceful posture unmistakable.
Yet, that gaze was filled with a cold intent, and Su Yi quickly recognized that only Mu Yao could have such a demeanor.
Their eyes met, and the glint in Mu Yao’s eyes turned even colder, as she locked a fierce, penetrating stare onto Su Yi.
Su Yi inwardly smiled wryly, puzzled by how this woman seemed so intent on staying around him, much like an unshakable spirit.
Within her presence, Su Yi felt an unfathomable sensation deep within his soul’s perception.
“I sense that quite a few women here seem to find you intriguing,” came a soft, almost innocent voice, drifting into Su Yi’s ears.
At once, a youthful figure approached Su Yi, signaling the arrival of Situ Muyang.
Today, Situ Muyang, dressed in a form-fitting black outfit, had a slender build that radiated youthful energy. Despite his tender age, he carried a certain heroic presence, with his arched brows, phoenix-like eyes, refined nose, and thin lips. His gaze was sharp and untainted.
But as Situ Muyang’s eyes briefly swept over Mu Yao, Ying Qianqian, and Gong Qi, his gaze eventually settled on Su Yi, carrying a touch of sympathy.
“What would a kid like you know?” Su Yi gave Situ Muyang a disdainful look.
“I’ve noticed that those women are certainly interested in you. Be careful. My father always tells me that the more beautiful a woman is, the harder she can be to deal with,” Situ Muyang warned Su Yi, his tone filled with genuine concern.
Su Yi’s gaze shifted upward. It seemed that Sect Leader Situ Liuyun had his own story, he thought.
“By the way, are you truly Elder Su’s disciple?” Situ Muyang suddenly asked.
“This…”
Su Yi remained unruffled. While it was true that he wasn’t Elder Su’s disciple, mentioning this to Situ Muyang—who was the sect leader’s son—could stir trouble.
“Boss Su Yi is, of course, Elder Su’s disciple,” Zhang Qing bit back a sigh and spoke up. It was important that Su Yi’s status as Elder Su’s disciple remained undisputed.
“Yes, Boss Su Yi is indeed Elder Su’s disciple,” Liu Ji and the others affirmed in unison after hearing Zhang Qing.
“So, you really are Grand Tutor’s disciple.”
Upon hearing this, Situ Muyang raised an eyebrow and, noticing Su Yi’s somewhat helpless expression, gave him a reluctant bow and said, “Greetings, Junior Uncle.”
Su Yi was surprised, repeating in his mind, “Junior Uncle…”
“You’re Grand Tutor’s disciple, so naturally, by seniority, you would be my Junior Uncle. Besides, you’re only a few years older than me, so calling you ‘Junior Uncle’ is more fitting.”
Situ Muyang was slightly frustrated. He had initially planned to challenge Su Yi after meeting him, but now, realizing that Su Yi was Grand Tutor’s disciple and his Junior Uncle, he felt at a disadvantage. Despite being only a few years older, the difference in their generational status made things awkward for him.
“Brother Su Yi, Elder Su’s identity is quite significant. He is the sect leader’s Junior Uncle,” Xu Jiahui explained, noticing Su Yi’s surprise.
Although Elder Su resided at the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, his standing in the Divine Sword School was far from ordinary. Even the sect leader had to address him as Junior Uncle.
“This makes sense…” Su Yi thought, the realization dawning on him. No wonder the elders’ expressions had shifted when he first arrived at Spirit Sword Peak and mentioned Elder Su.
When Elder Su appeared on Spirit Sword Peak three days ago, all the elders showed him respect. It now made sense that Elder Su was held in such high regard due to his position as the sect leader’s Junior Uncle.
“Hehe, no need for any bowing in the future,” Su Yi smiled at Situ Muyang, feeling a bit guilty. After all, he wasn’t truly Elder Su’s disciple. This young fellow was, after all, the sect leader’s son.
“This seniority still needs to be acknowledged; we must always respect our elders,” Situ Muyang said with a serious expression. He then looked up at Su Yi and extended his hand toward him.
“What’s this for?” Su Yi asked, confused.
“What do you think? I’ve already shown respect and called you ‘Junior Uncle,’ so I can’t let myself come out empty-handed,” Situ Muyang replied, glancing at Su Yi disdainfully.
“Boss Su Yi, looks like the Young Sect Leader is expecting a gift,” Zhang Qing smirked and informed Su Yi.
“A gift…” Su Yi looked at Situ Muyang’s extended hand, then at his seemingly innocent face. Su Yi couldn’t help but feel a twitch in his eye. “What Junior Uncle? This little guy is clearly trying to take advantage.”
“I’ll pick a gift for you later,” Su Yi sighed inwardly, glancing at Situ Muyang with a look of disdain. It was obvious that Situ Muyang was taking advantage of the situation, but he had no other choice.
“That sounds acceptable, but I must say, if the gift is too cheap, it won’t match your status,” Situ Muyang said with a smug smile as he withdrew his hand. He knew that Su Yi had all his valuable items stored in a peculiar space, and it was inconvenient to discuss such matters here.
Su Yi couldn’t help but twitch his eye. This time, at the Grand Swordsmanship Competition, he had to come in first place. He couldn’t afford to lose.
“Master Uncle, someone’s here to see you.”
Situ Muyang raised an eyebrow and looked ahead, where two graceful figures were walking toward them.
Su Yi looked over and recognized the two women—Ying Qianqian and Gong Qi.
He was somewhat surprised. Could it be that these two women were here to cause trouble again?
Although Ying Qianqian and Gong Qi differed in temperament and appearance, both possessed a charm and elegance that would draw many young men to them.
However, given their discerning nature and pride, only a few young men in the Divine Sword School could even hope to capture their attention.
And now, these two beautiful women were walking straight toward Su Yi, immediately attracting the attention of the crowd.
Under the gaze of numerous onlookers, the two women approached Su Yi, walking with purpose.
Despite the coldness in Gong Qi’s eyes, she seemed to be trying to contain her emotions at that moment.
“Su Yi, how about we strike a deal?” Ying Qianqian said, her eyes sparkling as a smile curved her lips.
Su Yi was taken aback but nodded slightly, “What kind of deal?”
Ying Qianqian continued, “I know you’ve obtained all the Dark Spirit Fruits, and you likely still have some. To be honest, Dark Spirit Fruits are very important to us. If you give us two of them, we’ll exchange them for twenty star-grade pills. What do you think?”
