Chapter 605: Su Yuntian’s Speculation
“Well…” Right Dharma Protector’s eyelids twitched. Everyone knew that Yun Lingfeng’s punishment was quite unfair. If Su Yi were still alive and returned to the Divine Sword School, he would undoubtedly be displeased with such a result. Anyone in his position would feel the same.
“Immediately give the order to seal the information. No one is allowed to leak any news. Those who witnessed the events in Forging Sword City must all be isolated. This matter absolutely cannot be leaked,” Situ Liuyun commanded. His gaze was solemn as he lost himself in thought for a moment before murmuring, “I hope the Divine Sword School won’t regret this too much in the future…”
Right Dharma Protector nodded and quickly left to carry out the orders.

Man City, the Su Family
“Hoo…”
At a certain moment on the stone platform, Old Man Su Yuntian opened his eyes. A few traces of long-lost ruddy color appeared on his face, and his aura felt vigorous and enduring. A long breath escaped from his abdomen.
In the secret chamber, the mysterious and diminutive figure had already vanished without a trace.
Su Yuntian’s senses flared as he examined his body. His face was filled with confusion. The injuries that had worsened over the past few months had now mostly healed. A surge of energy flowed within him, the power transformed by a high-level pill. There was also the pure vital energy left by the mysterious figure inside him.
Su Yuntian didn’t know the exact level of the pill, but it was clear that the pill the mysterious figure had given him during his healing process was an invaluable treasure. Otherwise, his injuries wouldn’t have healed so dramatically.
Even after recovering, Su Yuntian felt that he could make further progress.
On the stone platform, a space bag was placed, clearly left behind by the mysterious expert.
Su Yuntian picked up the space bag, his spiritual sense sweeping through it, and his expression changed dramatically.
Inside the space bag were numerous elixirs, martial arts techniques, and cultivation resources. The total value of the contents far exceeded the worth of the entire Su family—by dozens of times!
The sheer magnitude of these resources stunned Su Yuntian to the point where he couldn’t regain his composure for a long while.
Having lived for so many years, he had never seen such enormous wealth.
The Su family, one of the five major families in Man City, had never possessed resources even remotely comparable to those in the space bag. The bag’s contents were worth dozens of times more than the entire Su family’s assets. This was truly staggering.
“Who could this be…?”
Old Man Su Yuntian was shocked and confused, taking a long time to regain his composure.
Who was that mysterious expert? Why had they healed him and given him such invaluable healing elixirs, as well as a massive amount of cultivation resources? It was clear that this person wasn’t an ordinary expert. The Su family had never befriended anyone with such high-level capabilities.
With these resources, Su Yuntian speculated that the Su family could surpass the other major families within a few years.
“Could it be…?”
Suddenly, a shock ran through Su Yuntian’s heart. That expert had mentioned Su Yi.
“Could it be that my grandson Su Yi is still alive?”
His body trembled with excitement, and his heart raced at the thought.
“Father.”
A deep, urgent voice called from outside the door.
“Jingting, what happened?”
Su Yuntian’s expression changed slightly. He had instructed that no one should disturb him unless something important happened to the Su family, especially not his adopted son, Su Jingting.
“A strong expert from the Divine Sword School has come, saying that he wants to meet with Father!”
Su Jingting’s voice echoed from outside the door.
“The Divine Sword School…”
Su Yuntian’s expression changed significantly. He was well aware of the Divine Sword School. Although it wasn’t as formidable as Sacred Mountain, it was still a powerful force in the Central Region.
A moment later, in the side hall of the Su family.
At the head of the side hall, Old Man Su Yuntian sat upright. Another figure sat beside him, accompanied by two others: one fat and one tall, both striking in appearance.
Only Su Yuntian and Su Jingting were present from the Su family.
If Su Yi had been there, he would have recognized them immediately. The three visitors were none other than Dharma Protectors Hou Changming, Wang Tianbao, and Zhu Changgao.
Old Man Su Yuntian observed the three men in front of him, trying to hide his unease.
The three powerful experts from the Divine Sword School had arrived secretly, even going so far as to request that no noise be made. This puzzled both Su Yuntian and Su Jingting.
“Are you Su Yi’s grandfather?” Dharma Protector Hou Changming asked, his gaze shifting uncomfortably. He had received news that Su Yi’s grandfather had suffered severe injuries, but the man before him appeared to be relatively unharmed.
“Indeed, I am Old Man Su Yuntian, Su Yi’s grandfather,” he replied. “I wonder if the three Dharma Protectors of the Divine Sword School have come regarding Su Yi. Has something happened to my grandson, Su Yi…?”
Old Man Su Yuntian’s voice trembled slightly, his heart filled with unease, anticipation, and hope. He desperately wished for news that his grandson was still alive.
“Well…” Dharma Protector Hou Changming nodded, his respect for Su Yi clear. He hesitated to continue, feeling awkward speaking before Old Man Su Yuntian.
At that moment, Dharma Protector Hou Changming assumed Old Man Su Yuntian was inquiring about Su Yi’s status within the Divine Sword School, unaware that Su Yi had already suffered setbacks in the eyes of the Su family.
“Old Man, there’s no need to ask further,” Hou Changming said. “I’ve come on behalf of Su Yi to bring you a Xuanyuan Soaring Dragon Pill for your injuries. I hope it will help you recover.”
He handed over a jade medicine box, a space bag, and a unique badge marked with the symbol of the Divine Sword School. “This is the token of the Divine Sword School. If the Su family encounters any difficulties, you may present this token at the Divine Sword School, and they will assist you.”
“We’ve come discreetly and kindly ask that the Su family keep this confidential. If word gets out, it could cause problems for your family.”
Once he finished speaking, Hou Changming, Wang Tianbao, and Zhu Changgao departed.
“Esteemed Dharma Protectors, please, tell me about my grandson, Su Yi’s situation…” Old Man Su Yuntian’s weathered face was filled with a pleading expression, eager for answers. Everything that had happened was so unusual.
“Old Man, please refrain from asking further,” Hou Changming said, his voice heavy with emotion. The three Dharma Protectors exchanged solemn glances before silently disappearing into the night sky.
Outside in the courtyard, Old Man Su Yuntian and Su Jingting looked up at the three disappearing figures in the void, unable to regain their senses for a long time.
After a moment, they returned to the study. Old Man Su Yuntian and Su Jingting exchanged puzzled glances as they opened the jade medicine box. Inside, they found the Xuanyuan Soaring Dragon Pill, the Divine Sword School token, and a space bag filled with pills, martial techniques, and other cultivation resources. Their faces were a mixture of astonishment and disbelief.
