Chapter 162 - Big Brother, I’ll Save You!
Chapter 162 Big Brother, I’ll Save You!
The sky had started to turn bright, but Su Wen was still practicing with Yan Luoying. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door! “Third Brother! I’m awake! I want to sleep with the two of you!” Su Nuannuan’s voice was heard. She had stayed over at Su Wen’s house last night. “Scram!”
Su Wen’s attitude was extremely ruthless. He continued ‘cultivating’. What if he was disturbed and suffered from cultivation deviation? “You… you’re bullying me… I’m going home today to complain to my mother!” Su Wen shouted as he practiced his martial arts, “If you dare to complain, I will throw all your toys into the feces pit!” “Wah! Brother is so mean! I’m going to look for Sister Yumian!” Su Nuannuan cried and ran away. Yan Luoying rolled her eyes at him and said in a low voice, “You’re too fierce to the kid.” Su Wen panted heavily and said, “If I’m not fierce, she won’t be afraid! This brat is really mischievous! How are the two new techniques I’ve comprehended?” “Quite… impressive!” They practiced until the sky was bright. Then, the two of them got off the bed. Yan Luoying put on her makeup. A new day had begun, and there were two more people in the Su Residence. Yan Luoying and Old Zhou. After Su Wen and Yan Luoying washed up, they prepared a carriage and brought Su Nuannuan back to the Su Residence.
Su Nuannuan pouted and sulked in the car, shooting death glares at Su Wen from time to time.
Su Wen did not care and continued eating his melon seeds leisurely. The two of them went to the Prime Minister’s residence, where Yan Luoying served tea to Su Wen’s parents according to the rules.
After everything was over, the ceremony was completed.
When they returned to the Su residence, everyone would have to address Yan Luoying as Madam whenever they saw her. Su Wen would also officially take the title of Old Master in his residence.
Back in the inner residence of Su Wen’s house, Yan Luoying’s gaze swept across Cui Yumian and Xie Yiyi. Ning Shuang stood by the side, seemingly unruffled. Cui Yumian and Xie Yiyi were a little nervous. Only to see Yan Luoying smile at them, “My two sisters, don’t be afraid. Although I’m the official wife, I’m usually busy with work. The three of you can handle all matters in the inner residence.”
With that sentence, she also pulled in Ning Shuang, who was standing by the side. Xie Yiyi said, “Then we’ll do as Big Sister says.”
It seemed that Yan Luoying was an easy person to talk to. Seeing that they were relieved, Yan Luoying smiled and said, “However, there’s something that I have to say first. You all can take care of the matters normally, but if I really step in, you guys have to listen to me. If anyone has other thoughts, I won’t be polite anymore.” Cui Yumian and Xie Yiyi nodded in return. Ning Shuang’s expression remained the same, as though whatever Yan Luoying said had nothing to do with her. Yan Luoying took a vow of sovereignty and allowed Xie Yiyi and Cui Yumian to lead her to familiarize herself with the inner residence.
Only Su Wen and Ningshuang were left. “I have to go to the Star Martial Mystic Realm soon, and I won’t be back for a while.”
Su Wen said to Ning Shuang.
At this moment, Ning Shuang’s expression changed. Her face revealed a sense of reluctance and worry.
Su Wen continued, “Keep a close eye on the family and don’t cause any trouble. If something really urgent happens, you can directly command Zhao Jinhe and Luo Ning. I’ve already instructed them.” “Yes.” Ning Shuang nodded in return. Su Wen thought for a moment and said, “There’s nothing else. I want to eat roasted meat for lunch.” “Alright!” Ning Shuang went to prepare. In the backyard, Yan Luoying had the final say, so there was naturally no problem. With her status, Su Wen would not say anything, but ultimately, Su Wen still trusted Ning Shuang the most.
Su Wen found Wu Lie and the two of them sat in the restaurant with dishes and wine in front of them.
Su Wen smiled as he started the conversation. “Why didn’t you come for my wedding?” Wu Lie shook his head and did not speak. Although he no longer had any feelings for Yan Luoying, he had liked her for many years. How could he feel a heartache at seeing the woman he once loved getting married?
“Alright, then can you tell me why there are so many martial artists currently in the capital?” Su Wen looked out of the window and asked curiously. Wu Lie sneered, “Isn’t it all for the slots for the Star Martial Mystic Realm? According to the rules, His Majesty will take 120 slots out of the 200 slots we have. There are a total of 80 slots for the various major sects and clans of the Great Zhou Dynasty. His Majesty will organize the selection and arrange the people who can enter the mystic realm. These people all want a share of the loot.”
He looked at Su Wen and said, “Don’t tell me you think that Heaven Rank cultivation techniques are common? Many sects and clans don’t even have such a cultivation technique. These people cultivate Earth Rank cultivation techniques and have no hope of ever becoming a Heaven Rank cultivator. Only when they rise to a higher position and switch to Heaven Rank cultivation techniques will they have a chance to reach that realm. Therefore, their desire for the Star Martial Mystic Realm is even stronger than us!”
Su Wen shook his head. “I wasn’t even aware of such a situation.”
Ten years ago, he was only nine years old. He really didn’t know anything about this.
Compared to him, Wu Lie knew a lot more. “The Star Martial Mystic Realm has been around for so many years. Logically speaking, there should be information about it, right?” Su Wen asked curiously. Wu Lie shook his head and said, “The Star Martial Secret Realm was established by the Nine Saints of the Human Race back then. This place is extremely strange, and every time one enters, it is different. Sometimes it is to fight against strange beasts, sometimes it is against the natives, and sometimes it is only to fight between the various countries. In short, no one knows what it will be like the next time one enters this place. It is just that within the mystic realm, the more one fights inside, the richer the Saint Qi one obtains, and it is possible to directly obtain a reward through it. This is something that we’re certain of. In addition, in this place, no one knows where there is anything good, and perhaps one can obtain some unexpected gains.” Su Wen frowned and said, “Does that mean that no one can make preparations in advance?”
“Yes!”
Su Wen shook his head and did not take it seriously. “However, there are still some rules to speak
of!”
Wu Lie said in a deep voice, “No matter what, there won’t be any enemies above the 3rd Grade of Earth Rank in the Star Martial Mystic Realm. At the same time, anyone, including us, who breaks through above the 3rd Grade in the Mystic Realm will be forcibly sent out!” Su Wen asked curiously, “Someone can break through above the 3rd Grade?” Wu Lie smiled and said, “How is that impossible? Some Heaven Rank medicinal pills have extremely powerful effects. If one accidentally obtains one and swallows it, one’s cultivation can immediately break through by a few grades! That’s all very common. Sigh, if only I had a Heaven Ranked medicinal pill.” Su Wen smiled. “Why? Do you want to eat
one?”
“Who doesn’t want to eat one?”
Su Wen took out his Sex Change Pill and placed it in front of Wu Lie. He teased, “Heaven Ranked medicinal pill, here you go!” Wu Lie opened the bottle and looked at the pill inside. He realized that there was nothing different about it! “Is this real?” “It is!”
Wu Lie raised his guard. “Why are you so generous? Can this be a Heaven Rank poison?”
Su Wen shook his head. “No, it’s just that men will become women after eating it. Women will become men after eating it!” Wu Lie quickly put the pill down! “Eat it yourself! I don’t want to eat it!” “Hahaha!” Su Wen laughed heartily as he put away the pill. “By the way, last time you said… about treating me…”
“Didn’t you not get beaten up?”
“Su Wen, you’re too much!”
“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll treat you to seven days of fun. I’ll leave three days for you to recover your vitality. Don’t end up as a weakling when you enter the mystic realm!” Wu Lie was overjoyed. “Meticulous!”
In the next few days, the disciples of the sects and the scions of the rich and powerful families fought like wildfire. During this period, another incident occurred. The Southern Barbarians invaded the country, and Xu Qiao had to lead his troops to resist the enemy.
This lasted until the day they were supposed to enter the mystic realm. Two hundred people gathered in the palace. Su Wen looked around and saw many familiar faces.
Third Prince… Little Monk Zhizhen… Xu Longcheng… Wu Lie… As he watched, Ni Hongxiao walked to his side. “Young Master Su, you should go in too.” Su Wen subconsciously looked down. She was dressed so strictly that it was boring. “Do you want to see…” She smiled seductively. Su Wen nodded… “Come… take this with you. Once you’re inside and let it out, your sister will come find you.” Ni Hongxiao gave Su Wen a small bottle. He noticed a scarlet worm inside. Su Wen frowned. “Can this thing be brought in?”
Ni Hong smiled in a low voice. “There shouldn’t be a problem. This thing is currently in a state of suspended animation.”
Su Wen understood what she meant and smiled. “An alliance?”
“You are right. Although I just want to see if there are any good experimental materials in the Star Martial Mystic Realm, these people will definitely find a way to kill me. To prevent any accidents, it is better to form an alliance.” “Why me?” Su Wen asked curiously. “Because… you are lecherous!” Ni Hongxiao moved closer to Su Wen. She smiled as she opened her collar and enticed him. “How is it? You can get the benefits of looking at some jugs…” To Ni Hongxiao, she did not care about the so-called ethics of the world. The main reason she chose Su Wen was because… she only knew Su Wen. Moreover, she had worked with Su Wen more than once and had a certain level of trust. “Then I’ll listen to you!” Su Wen kept the worm.
Even though he did not know exactly how strong Ni Hongxiao was, for her to be able to come here meant that she had at least a cultivation base of a 9th Grade Star Rank.
Moreover, it was still unknown how many tricks this strange woman had up her sleeves. There was nothing wrong with forming an alliance with her!
Su Wen was very clear that Ni Hongxiao was definitely not lying. The main reason she went in was definitely to get some experimental materials that she had never seen before. As for martial arts, how could a woman who soaked herself with corpses all day long fall in love with martial arts? ‘???’ Suddenly, Su Wen thought of something, looking at Ni Hongxiao who was beside him in shock. This woman… even though she was crazily doing experiments every day, her cultivation could still reach 9th Grade Star Rank? Even though she was a few years older than him, her talent seemed a little too terrifying! Looking around, Su Wen was the youngest person present. Well… except for the little monk, who looked a year or two younger than Su Wen himself. The little monk also saw Su Wen, giving him a big smile before turning around and queuing up to enter the mystic realm! The entrance to the mystic realm was actually through an ancient spirit array. The spirit array constantly emitted a faint glow. As time passed, the inscription began to float, and the spirit array was activated. A gigantic pillar of light soared into the sky! In that instant, it was as if heaven and earth were shaking
In the distance, Emperor Zhou stared coldly at the pillar of light. He knew that within this were the most outstanding youths of Great Zhou!
Once they entered the mystic realm, it was unknown how many would return alive! Meanwhile, Wu Kunhu was at home, drinking wine and eating meat. He had a faraway look in his eyes… Was he regretting it? Regretting that he did not go in the Star Martial Mystic Realm years ago…
He shook his head.
He picked up another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth.
In the Prime Minister’s manor, Su Changqing was playing chess with himself. He muttered as he set down the piece, “You can only rely on yourself this time!”
Bam!
This was Su Wen’s first time experiencing teleportation.
He felt a roaring in his ears and his consciousness went blank. When he coul see again, the scene before him had changed. He was in a dense forest, surrounded by trees.
However, most of these trees were in a withered state, and the air was filled with an indescribable unpleasant smell.
Looking up, the sky was gray. There was no sun, no moon. It was unknown whether it was day or night. However, according to common sense, Su Wen simply interpreted this as a cloudy day. There was only himself in the area! Su Wen touched his body. Logically speaking, no living thing could be brought in. But as he touched the vial… He realized that Ni Hongxiao was really smart. Opening the bottle cap, the air entered and the scarlet bug seemed to gradually awaken. Buzz!
The bug flew out and circled around Su Wen a few times before flying off in a certain direction. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace, and Su Wen began to wait. As he waited, he suddenly felt that his actions were quite silly. Ni Hongxiao did not say that he had to wait there. Who knew where that woman was? Let’s leave first! With that, Su Wen also followed in the direction of the bug. In his deduction, since this bug flew away, it should have gone to find Ni Hongxiao. It would not be wrong for him to go in this direction.
He ended up walking for 24 hours straight! There was nothing along the way! It was a good thing that everyone who came in had spatial equipment provided by the Spiritual Master Residence. There was food and water inside!
It was to prevent such a thing from happening. There was actually such a time when the martial artists that entered the mystic realm encountered such a situation. As to how they managed to survive and escape in the end, we’ll leave that to your own imagination… What made Su Wen sad was that there was no difference between day and night here. The sky remained overcast, and it even began raining after a while. There was still no difference in the area, however. Fortunately, as he advanced, something finally changed. He saw a forest in front of him, a lush green land. Compared to the other barren lands, this place finally had life! He could not help but walk faster! However… he soon came to a complete halt. Su Wen felt a sense of danger, an indescribable prickling feeling. The Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu in his body started to move, as if reminding him of something Moments later, his hair stood on end as if he had been targeted by something. Whoosh! An arrow shot out from the forested area! Just as the arrow appeared, Su Wen moved! Stellar Transposition, activate! He increased his speed and dodged instantly! But then more than one arrow shot out of the dense forest.
There was more than one person! Su Wen came to this conclusion immediately! However, Su Wen immediately sensed that something was amiss. These arrows fired were too weak. That’s right, too weak. It could not pose any real threat to him. So where did that feeling of being targeted come from? The arrows that were being shot out might not be from those that entered the mystic realm with him.
Su Wen also saw a figure. In the dense forest, there was a creature that looked like a giant frog. It was holding a simple bow and continuously shooting arrows at him from the tree.
“Forget it! Kill!”
Su Wen exerted strength in his legs and charged straight forward!
Bam!
Su Wen casually slashed and killed one!
In an instant, Su Wen felt a strange aura appear from heaven and earth and enter his body!
He could not control it, nor he could not stop it!
“This is the infusion of Saint Qi?” Su Wen speculated in his mind as the saber in his hand did not stop moving!
The Saint Qi that entered his body was very weak. Clearly, this kind of thing did not provide much of an increase. Even after Su Wen finished killing all the frogmen, there was only a wisp of Saint Qi in his body. Moreover, when he was killing these things, there was no Emotional Value from them. But the feeling of being watched had vanished… Su Wen heaved a sigh of relief but did not let his guard down. This feeling of being watched was not good. Su Wen fell into deep thought as he looked at the gigantic frogmen on the ground. This thing could make bows? Although the bows and arrows on the ground were crude, they were undoubtedly recognizable tools, which meant the presence of a civilization. After thinking for a while, he decided to delve deeper. There was no outcome in standing here and only analyzing. Su Wen walked in, but this time, he was extremely careful! In the face of an unknown environment, Su Wen did not dare to be careless. Suddenly, he stopped and turned to listen. From afar came the sounds of fighting! It was very soft, but it was definitely a battle. He quickly moved in that direction. As the sound got closer and closer! Su Wen climbed up the tree and used his movement technique to move forward instead. Finally, he saw the human fighting! That’s right! It was a human! But not all of them were human!
On one side were three men and a woman, all of them naked. On the other side could also be said to be human… except that they were nearly three meters tall, with skin like black scales. They had tails and huge mouths. He held a spear in his hand as he fought against the three of them! Natives!
There was no other explanation for that. Among the four humans, two were at the 8th Grade of the Star Rank. According to the rules, outsiders had to be at least at the 9th Grade of the Star Rank to enter.
But that black-scaled man was actually a true 9th Grade Star Ranked cultivator!
Although it was one against four, it was holding the advantage instead! “Hand over the Demonic Martial Bead and I’ll spare your lives!” shouted the black-scaled man. The four of them had already been suppressed by him! However, it was obvious that the black-scaled man did not want to kill.
What he wanted was something on these four people’s bodies. After all, with his cultivation level, it was not easy to kill these people without injuries. Su Wen stood on the tree and weighed the pros and cons.
What should he do?
These people’s cultivation was still passable, but their battle techniques were rather crude. With Su Wen’s strength, he could easily kill even the black-scaled man! He could first save these four people, obtain information about the world, then seize their Demonic Martial Bead and kill them to increase his Saint Qi!
This seemed to be the most ideal method. Su Wen was deep in thought when he suddenly saw a figure charging out from another side! “Brothers, don’t panic. I’ll help you!” “F*ck! Someone wants to fight the spoils with me!”
Su Wen knew at a glance that this fellow came in through his connections. He was dressed in gorgeous clothes and was fair and chubby. He held an extremely gorgeous machete in his hand and kept swinging it like there was no tomorrow.
But his participation immediately broke the balance. The black-scaled man was only barely able to suppress these people. If he wanted to kill them, he would suffer a lot to do so. The moment this person who was also participating in the mystic realm entered the battlefield, his strength provided a boost to the other humans. The black-scaled man immediately could not take it! In a flash, he was slashed a few times! Blood immediately flowed! Seeing that he would be killed if he stayed, the black-scaled man gritted his teeth and turned around to run.
However, at this moment, the person who had joined the battle shouted and slashed out with his blade. The black-scaled man could not dodge the blade Qi that flew out in time.
Puchi! A large piece of flesh was cut off from his thigh!
The black-scaled man couldn’t escape even if he wanted to at this moment. Just as the black-scaled man was in utter despair! Suddenly, a figure descended from the sky! It was Su Wen. He held a long saber in his hand and slashed at the fatty.
“Big Brother! I’m here to save you!” Su Wen’s words stunned the black-scaled guy.
Was this guy crazy? Where did he come from? Why was he calling him Big Brother?
