Chapter 161 – The whereabouts of the Morning Heaven Gate

"Leader Xu Ge's body is gone?"

Su Yun was stunned and suddenly realized: "Senior, how did Leader Xu Ge's body disappear? You must have known, right?"

"The strange thing is that I didn't see how the body disappeared."

The Half-Demon General Li looked towards the Tian Shi Yuan. Although it was still night in Shuo Fang City, the Tian Shi Yuan was already shining brightly, and the beautiful scene was quite charming.

They were currently on the edge of Shuo Fang City, with a mine in front and a group of buildings behind.

General Li landed with Su Yun on the top of the mine, and saw that the miners had not yet started their work for the day.

"I was sealed in a coffin, and although I could sense the outside, I couldn't see it clearly. I only felt that the young man's breath was gone, and he had turned into a cold corpse."

General Li was silent for a moment and said, "But something happened before he turned into a corpse. The young man fell into darkness before he died, and the demonic aura emanating from his heart was very heavy, as if it had turned into a resentful abyss that devoured everything. I even felt that my own demonic aura was sucked away by him."

Su Yun's heart trembled slightly.

"In that snow disaster, I saw people falling into darkness, saw human nature twisted beyond human and demon, and saw how far people could go bad."

General Li said, "I still don't know if he really died or faked his death. His body disappeared, and the seven major families' old immortals argued about it for a long time, but nothing was resolved. If he is still alive, I think he should be more terrifying than the old immortals of the seven major families."

Su Yun couldn't help but shiver.

Leader Xu Ge defeated the human and demon, imprisoned the human and dragon spirits, and crossed the Tian Shi Yuan and Shuo Fang, which were plagued by famine, alone. He must have experienced countless dangers along the way, otherwise he wouldn't be covered in wounds.

He came to Shuo Fang City, and just when he thought he could relax, he fell into the hands of people like Tong Qingyun, Lin Gaoyi, and Wu Yuan.

These seven people, whom he usually didn't even bother to look at, unexpectedly caught him and tortured him in every way.

Leader Xu Ge could fight wits and courage with the human and demon, and didn't fall into the temptation of the human and demon. In the end, he defeated other disciples of the Heavenly Dao Academy, and his wisdom reached its peak.

However, he underestimated the wickedness of human nature and fell in Shuo Fang.

The human and demon could not let him fall, but Tong Qingyun and others turned him into a demon.

"After the snow disaster, those of us who fled, including the Li and Ye families, returned. The ancient families declined, and new families rose. After the death of the Emperor, no one investigated the Dragon Valley incident in Tian Shi Yuan, and the seven major families were whitewashed as a result."

General Li said, "Later, the Xue family rose in Shuo Fang, and from the Emperor Yuan, Emperor Ai to Emperor Ping, the Xue family produced three saints and assisted the three great emperors. The Xue family was prominent for a while, and lasted for more than a hundred years without decline."

Su Yun's heart moved slightly: "Why did General Li mention the Xue family to me?"

"The rise of the Xue family made me suspect that the young man did not die."General Li, a half-demon, looked at the sky. The east was turning white, and the other half-demon generals had already set off for the Heavenly Market Enclosure. Li hesitated and said, "I once monitored the Xue family, but there was no trace of that young man. Later, when Xue Qingfu rose to power, I became suspicious again."

Su Yun looked up at the tall half-demon with a puzzled expression.

General Li said, "A family with three saints is too unbelievable. The first generation of saints was outstanding, and the second generation was also a saint, which may be a coincidence. But the third generation is also a saint, which is strange and incredible."

Su Yun fell into thought.



General Li was right.

Ordinary people saw the Xue family as just a wealthy family with good lineage, smart descendants, and good education. But upon closer inspection, it was somewhat incredible.

"The Xue family is a large family, and the saints only live in the ancestral home of the Xue family. This family has developed over three generations and is definitely larger than the seven major families. What's more critical is that all three generations of saints were Taichangs of the Heavenly Academy. How many disciples and younger brothers does he have?"

General Li patted Su Yun's shoulder and walked towards the Heavenly Market Enclosure, his voice echoing, "The situation in Shuofang has chosen you as the envoy, so don't let Shuofang down."

Su Yun watched him go, and saw the sun rise in the east.

The book monster, Ying Ying, said, "I know there are many ways to fake death. The leader, Xue Xue, may not be really dead. He may have faked his death with a secret method and escaped. There are many such martial arts and abilities in the Heavenly Academy... but does it have anything to do with Saint Xue?"

She stood on Su Yun's shoulder, with a bookmark in her mouth, looking at the rising sun, murmuring, "Three generations of saints, experienced three emperors, and managed the Heavenly Academy for more than a hundred years. If he raises his arm, he will be more threatening than the seven major families."

The sunshine fell, and Su Yun felt the spring in the sunshine, his heart calm, and he smiled, "Ying Ying, why do you think so much?"

The book monster, Ying Ying, got angry and flew up, hitting his forehead with the bookmark, and said angrily, "If my guess is true, then Saint Xue will rebel and try to overthrow the Eastern Emperor and take his place!"

Su Yun didn't understand, "What's wrong with that?"

The book monster, Ying Ying, was stunned.

"The emperor is not your family's, why do you care who the emperor is? Even if Saint Xue is the leader and wants to overthrow the emperor and become the emperor himself, it's just a change of emperor for us."

Su Yun expressed his doubts, "The Eastern Emperor is incompetent. It's better to have a capable emperor. It's better than having an incompetent emperor lying there all the time, right?"

The book monster, Ying Ying, was so angry that she stuttered, "You, you are rebelling... you are not loyal to the emperor..."

Su Yun smiled, "In our village, there has never been an emperor. Why bother finding an emperor for ourselves? We have to kneel and worship him, and pay taxes and grain to him."

He turned his head and saw Hong Chang floating in the air on the top of a building not far away. Wu Tong stood on the head of a black dragon, with a complex expression, wondering what she was thinking.Su Yun's heart trembled slightly. He leaped up and a yellow bell appeared above his head. One by one, Bi Fang divine birds flew out of the surface of the bell and landed at his feet.

Su Yun walked in the air towards Wu Tong and smiled, "How long have you been here, junior sister?"

"I've been here all along." Wu Tong's face was calm, but her eyes seemed to be burning like a candle flame, flickering from time to time. n0veluSB.c0m

Su Yun landed on the back of the Black Jiao and walked towards Wu Tong's head, wanting to see if there really was a flame in her eyes.

Suddenly, Jiao Shu'Ao let out a dragon's roar and turned into a tall, thin man in black. He grabbed Su Yun's collar, lifted the boy up, and angrily said, "How dare you ride on me?"

Su Yun was strangled and couldn't breathe. "I was just standing on you, and Wu Tong was standing on you too..."

"Do you still want to ride on my head?" Jiao Shu'Ao's face was ferocious, and his eyes were unkind.

The book monster Ying Ying struggled to open his fingers and said angrily, "If humans and demons can ride on him, why can't Su Shi ride on him? Su Shi, let's not ride him, let's go ride Senior Sister Xiao Yao!"

Wu Tong said calmly, "Uncle Ao, let him go."

Jiao Shu'Ao obeyed her and snorted, letting Su Yun go.

Su Yun rubbed his neck and smiled, "Uncle Ao's cultivation progress is really fast. I still can't catch up even after all my training."

"He's cultivating the True Dragon Sixteen Chapters, so of course his progress is fast," Wu Tong said.

Wu Tong was stunningly beautiful and said leisurely, "The True Dragon Sixteen Chapters can not only greatly increase his cultivation, but also make his lifespan extremely long. Senior Brother, if you join me, I can also make you immortal."

Su Yun laughed and shook his head, walking towards the direction of the Wen Chang Academy. "Wu Tong, you're just my defeated subordinate. Do you really think you're worthy of me joining you? Let's talk when you can defeat me!"

Wu Tong snorted, flicked her sleeve, and sat on the edge of the building, watching his back, thinking about something.

Jiao Shu'Ao stood behind her, watching Su Yun and whispered, "If the senior doesn't like this kid, why don't I make a move and stab him with my sword?"

Wu Tong shook her head and said, "Now, no one in Shuo Fang City dares to openly attack him. Whoever attacks him will die!"

Su Yun walked in the air, covering a few miles. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he whispered, "Ying Ying, is the human and demon still watching me?"

The book monster Ying Ying turned back to look and said, "They're still watching."

Su Yun continued forward, with more and more cold sweat on his forehead.

Ying Ying said, "Walking in the air consumes a lot of spiritual energy. Can your energy and blood hold up? If not, you'll lose face."

Su Yun gritted his teeth and said nothing, desperately urging the Hong Lu Shang to supplement his cultivation. He walked another three to five miles, his voice hoarse, "Are they still watching me?"

Ying Ying turned back to look and said, "They're still watching!"

"This dead woman, she's really a human and demon. She must want to see me make a fool of myself!"

Su Yun gritted his teeth and finally saw a cloud bridge ahead.

He summoned the last bit of strength and continued forward, finally reaching the cloud bridge before his spiritual energy was depleted.Su Yun supported himself on the pillar of the cloud bridge corridor, his legs trembling as he gasped for breath.

At this time, the voice of the young girl Wu Tong came: "Big Brother, why are you working so hard? Earlier, you said you would talk to me when I could defeat you. I've thought about it, okay."

Su Yun's face turned iron blue. He saw the black dragon on the cloud bridge, and the young girl Wu Tong standing on the dragon's head, her clothes fluttering as she smiled: "Big Brother, I challenge you!"

Su Yun groaned, and Wu Tong suddenly giggled, jumping down from the dragon's head and coming to his side. "You have too many weaknesses. In my eyes, there are flaws everywhere in your mind. You walk in the air to save face, consuming your cultivation, and giving me the opportunity to challenge you. Do you think Xue Qingfu is that person?"

She suddenly changed the subject, making Su Yun also stunned.

"First come, first served."

Wu Tong walked behind him, stopped, and turned her head. "Have you ever thought about who the Eight-Faced Skyward Palace in Tianmen Town ultimately fell into the hands of? Some people stay in this remote place of Shuofang, is it for the Eight-Faced Skyward Palace? The Eight-Faced Skyward Palace should still be in Shuofang, right? And..."

Her voice became cold, with a hint of chill: "Does the emperor care most about the rebellion of the seven major families? He should care more about the Eight-Faced Skyward Palace, right? Is he also watching Shuofang, waiting for the appearance of the Eight-Faced Skyward Palace?"

Su Yun turned around, and Wu Tong leaped into the air with the black dragon rushing towards her, jumping into the air, her head just falling under her feet. "Big Brother, you have considered too one-sidedly, and your understanding of human nature is also too one-sided!"

The red-clothed girl stepped on the black dragon, and disappeared.

Su Yun's pupils shrank, and he lowered his head for a long time, thinking.

"Yes, I always forget one thing. I have the imprint of the Eight-Faced Skyward Palace, and someone may have the real Eight-Faced Skyward Palace."

Su Yun looked up. If there really was such a person, then that person would inevitably be able to enter the world behind Tianmen like him!

In other words, it is very likely that someone has also seen the immortal map of another world, and even that person is using the immortal map to repair his cultivation technique!

"Maybe his cultivation technique is more perfect! Maybe next time I enter the world behind Tianmen, I will meet that person!"

The water in Shuofang City was deep and turbid.

Suddenly, Ying Ying blinked her eyes and whispered, "Su Scholar, before you were thinking that the leader Xue was causing trouble in Shuofang, but later you found out that it was not the leader Xue, but the seven major families. So this time, are you thinking too much again? What if it's not one person, but a group of people who took the Skyward Palace?"

Su Yun was stunned, suddenly realizing, and laughed: "I understand! This may be another case of Leader Xue! Ying Ying, I think I know where the Skyward Palace is."
