Chapter 1588: Lingyue Cottage

Suddenly, Tian Chang’s words entered Su Yi’s ears, saying, "So you should know, your master is already very concerned about you! He lost the position of ‘Ten Lords’ because of you, but he never complained in front of others!"

Hearing this, Su Yi’s face immediately became serious. The character "岳" (yue) just now fully expressed the importance of the Central Region’s Palace Master in Old Man Gu Yue’s heart. It was the greatest glory in his heart. Now, because he defended Su Yi, it was taken away. The sense of loss in Old Man Gu Yue’s heart can be imagined. Su Yi’s heart was filled with self-blame.

Suddenly, my fingers tightened unconsciously and I said firmly in my heart, "I will definitely help Old Man Gu Yue get back his money! If anyone has a problem with me, that’s fine, but no one can harm the people who care about me!"

"By the way, my dear brother Tian Chang, have you seen anyone from the Su family at Yutian Palace?" Su Yi felt a bit anxious and quickly asked.

"People from the Su family? Have you seen them?"

After Tian Chang finished talking about Yutian Palace, he returned to his cold demeanor and asked the two disciples behind him, who both shook their heads indicating they didn’t know.

"We have been living on Lingyue Peak and haven’t met your family members. Once you meet with the master, ask him personally and things might become clear!"

Su Yi nodded silently, praying in his heart that he wasn’t too late for this trip to Yutian Palace.

If Yutian Palace breaks its promise and causes even the slightest harm to my grandfather and the Su family, even with all the gratitude and indebtedness towards Old Man Gu Yue, this account will have to be settled separately!

Li Shiran and Achu, who were behind him, sensed a hint of danger in the air and walked up to stand beside Su Yi, not knowing what to say. They all understood that Su Yi was someone who would risk his life to protect the people he cared about.

"Don’t be afraid! If anything happens, sister here will be there with you, no matter what!" Han Yurou patted her chest, looked straight at Su Yi, and spoke strongly.

Li Shiran couldn’t help but smile softly. She thought that this girl, Han, not only liked to dress like a man, but also spoke and acted like one. With her beautiful face, she looked very brave and elegant.

Su Yi pondered for a moment and then smiled and nodded at Han Yurou. He thought that this girl must have a special status in Wuliang School and it was rare for her to be so down-to-earth.

After thinking for a while, Tian Chang led Su Yi, Han Yurou, and Li Shiran behind him, and they climbed to the top of Lingyue Peak.

Although Lingyue Peak was just one of the eighteen peaks, the distance between each peak was very far. It looked very vast.

From the top, they could see the beautiful scenery of the entire Yutian Mountain. The grass and trees were warm yellow, and there were many spiritual birds flying in the sky. The surging spiritual energy swept over them layer by layer, like a vast snow-capped mountain spanning thousands of miles. It made people feel refreshed and joyful.

The hazy sunlight shone on the world and scattered over the Gongque Lake, resembling a very smooth and flat mirror. Between the towering mountains, the water and the sky merged, creating a magnificent scene of the lake reflecting the mountains. It was a truly beautiful sight!

"Lingyue Peak has such a majestic view! The scenery of Yutian River must be even more magnificent!" Han Yurou couldn’t help but sigh with admiration, showing her approval.

"The Xiānglú Waterfall and the Hui Cliff stand facing each other, the cliffs are towering and majestic. The green shadows and red clouds reflect the morning sun, birds cannot reach the vast sky! Climbing high and seeing the world, the great river flows endlessly. The yellow clouds move for thousands of miles, and the white waves flow down the snow-capped mountains!"

Su Yi saw the magnificent and grand mountains and rivers in front of him and couldn’t help but let out his heroic spirit. The passion in his heart surged like the mighty Yangtze River, and he sang freely!

"Nice poem! Sect Leader Su, since that’s the case, this old man will take the opportunity while I’m still free, to let loose and be a bit reckless. In the next hundred years, I’ll be drunk with the teachings, thirty-six thousand strong!"

Immediately, a deep and ancient voice echoed softly throughout Lingyue Peak, like a divine melody from the heavens, leaving one’s spirit shaken.

"Master!" Tian Chang and the other disciples behind him immediately knelt down, their expressions filled with utmost respect.

Su Yi also recognized that it was the voice of Old Man Gu Yue. He smiled faintly and cupped his hands towards the distant sky, saying, "I apologize for being late, I hope Palace Master Gu Yue won’t blame me!"

"Hahaha! Not late at all, it’s the perfect time! Sect Leader Su, bring your little friends inside!" Old Man Gu Yue’s voice echoed once again from the vast sky, followed by silence.

"Tian Chang, guard the Lingyue Cottage! No one is allowed to enter! Make sure to hold your ground!" Old Man Gu Yue quickly communicated to Tian Chang using his spiritual transmission technique. Tian Chang’s expression became solemn, as if facing a formidable enemy, and he nodded heavily.

Tian Chang approached Su Yi and pointed to a small building in the northeast direction. He spoke softly, "Go inside quickly, Master is in there. I’ll cover you outside."

Su Yi glanced deeply at the small building, blinked his eyes, and then headed towards it with Han Yurou and the others.

As they approached the Lingyue Cottage, Su Yi initially felt that the room was very ordinary, with no trace of a powerful aura. He couldn’t help but wonder in his heart, "Something big seems to be happening at Yutian Palace, yet Old Man Gu Yue remains calm and composed!"

Gently pushing open the door and walking through the corridor, Su Yi arrived at a small hall. There, he saw an elderly figure who had been waiting for him for a long time.

"Sect Leader Su, long time no see!" Old Man Gu Yue said calmly, with a smile on his face.

It was still that elderly figure, but he looked sharp and energetic. He had silver-white hair tied up in a bun and was wearing a plain robe with cloud patterns. He appeared kind and gentle, holding a cup of fragrant tea and savoring it.

"Palace Master Gu Yue, I hope you’ve been well!"

Seeing Palace Master Gu Yue in good spirits, Su Yi’s heart felt slightly relieved.

"Palace Master Gu Yue, I feel guilty for causing you to lose your position as the Central Region’s Palace Master. It has been weighing on my mind!" Su Yi suppressed his impatience and voiced his concern.

"Sect Leader Su, no need to blame yourself. The Palace Master has been in seclusion for many years, and Deputy Palace Master Zuo Qiufeng has been taking care of palace affairs. He has always had a strained relationship with the ten major vassals, and both the commander and faculty elder fully support Deputy Palace Master. As for the ten major vassals, we have always stood by the Palace Master. It was just an excuse to relieve me of my duties. I have been the Central Region’s Palace Master for a long time, and it’s a good opportunity to cultivate myself. Yutian Palace has become somewhat chaotic without the Palace Master. Thankfully, the Palace Master showed compassion and left Lingyue Peak to me, otherwise I would have nowhere to stay!" Gu Yue let out a heavy snort.

Elder Gu Yue, calm and composed, shook his head slowly and examined Su Yi’s changes from head to toe. His eyes shone with admiration as he gently nodded.

"Let’s not dwell on that matter! Just as I suspected, Sect Leader Su has achieved astounding accomplishments in just over a year. Truly a genius! However, in the art of Soul Control, Sect Leader Su still has room for improvement!"
