Two steps forward, one step to the ends of the earth, one step to a change.

In the first step, Yun Jie's figure and appearance completely transformed into Huang Jiu's. Despite wearing a mask, Yun Jie always strived for perfection in everything he did.

Secondly, he changed his attire to be the same as Huang Jiu's. Now, even if the King of Heaven himself came, he wouldn't be able to tell that the person in front of him was actually an imposter.

Not only his appearance, but Yun Jie had already browsed through Huang Jiu's memories before Huang Jiu died. Huang Jiu himself did not realize that his memories had been completely spied on. Of course, even if he had found out, it would have been useless, as he was already dead.

With all of Huang Jiu's memories, Yun Jie can be said to be someone whose identity no one can uncover unless he reveals it himself.

The Great Shang Mansion.

Huang Jiu... no, it should be Yun Jie now. Now that the identity issue has been resolved, he naturally needs to meet up with Su Yu. Although Su Yu had previously said that they should split up, how could Yun Jie possibly listen?

After determining the direction, Yun Jie quickly headed towards Nan Yuan. If he was fast enough, he might be able to catch up with Su Yu.

······

Back to Su Yu's side.

He just tested it out, and every time he was about to enter the Great Xuan Mansion, the divine script for the character "劫" would jump wildly.

Su Yu was secretly alarmed. He had always believed that the Great Xuan Mansion was a forbidden zone for various forces, but he didn't really believe it. "I can just sneak in from anywhere, how could you find me?" he thought.

However, Su Yu now believed it. He could disbelieve his own feelings, but he couldn't disbelieve the divine rune of "calamity". Ever since he comprehended this divine rune, it would remind him by jumping whenever he encountered danger. It could be said that this divine rune had saved him many times. Without this divine rune, he would have lost his life long ago.

However, Su Yu was not one to give up easily. He tried many more times, but no matter how he changed his position or how he hid, the divine rune of "calamity" still jumped up precisely before he stepped into the Great Xuan Mansion.

Hey!

I give up! I give up, okay?!

Take out the communication jade talisman.

"Lord of the Manor, are you there?"

Su Yu waited for a while, but the jade talisman showed no reaction whatsoever.

"Uncle, Uncle!"

Undeterred, Su Yu changed his form of address and continued calling out.

Whether it was because Su Yu changed his title or not, the jade talisman finally reacted and lit up.

Yun Chen's impatient voice came from the jade talisman: "I don't have time to deal with this right now... Huh, you're in the Human Realm!? What the hell, how come you're in the Human Realm!?"

Damn it! Am I sensing something wrong?

No way!? Am I prematurely aging, and my eyesight is failing?!

No, my senses can't be wrong. It's Su Yu who's acting strangely!

Yun Chen, who had already reached the ninth level of Eternity, did not feel that there was anything wrong with his senses. The signal from the communication jade talisman was coming from inside the human realm!

"Cough cough," Su Yu was speechless. He called the manor lord but got no response. He called his uncle and got through. Was he doing this on purpose?

Also, was he trying to say he was too busy to talk to me?

Shaking his head, Su Yu quickly said, "Lord of the City, I never said I couldn't leave the ancient city, did I?"

Yun Chen remained silent. "Yes, you didn't say that, but you didn't tell me you could leave either, did you? Not long ago, when you locked down the city for a month, I thought you were going to kick the bucket!"

Outside Xinghong Ancient City, Yun Chen stared silently at the city gate. "I thought you were on your deathbed and wanted to come and see if I could help you. But look at you, not only are you full of energy, you've even run back to the human realm!"

Beside her, Yun Ying nudged Yun Chen with her elbow: "You stinky Yun Chen, come on, why aren't you leaving? If you don't leave, your nephew will die in there."

Yun Chen: "..."

After a long pause, Yun Chen finally managed to say, "No need, let's go back. The kid is perfectly fine, lively and energetic. He's not even in the ancient city anymore..."

"Where else could he go if not the ancient city?"

"Human Realm!"

"what?"

Yunying felt like she was hallucinating.

"Wait a minute, let me find out first."

Yun Chen simply took the communication jade talisman out of his mind sea to avoid having to repeat it to Yun Ying later.

"Tell me, what happened to you?"

Su Yu thought for a moment and replied, "That's right. After transforming into a resident of the ancient city, I figured out a method to reverse the vital energy, which can reverse the death energy. However, this requires opening the Zhou Tian Aperture."

"You've come up with another cultivation technique? Did you find it on the ground?"

Not only was Yun Chen speechless, but Yun Ying was also somewhat helpless. She felt that Su Yu created cultivation techniques as easily as eating and drinking, and that included cultivation itself, which seemed to increase rapidly without end.

Su Yu said smugly, "That's why I'm called a Civilization Master. Don't forget, I also have the identity of a Senior Researcher. A mere set of cultivation techniques is nothing to me!"

Yun Ying said irritably, "You're getting cocky just because I said you're fat."

Su Yu was taken aback. Why was there a woman here? Could it be that when the Lord of the Manor said he was too busy…?

Yun Chen: "Don't overthink it. This is your aunt. Greet her."

Su Yu reacted instantly and, without hesitation, greeted, "Hello, Auntie!"

Yun Ying said with satisfaction, "Hmm, you're not bad, kid! Although I've seen you more than once, this is our first conversation. Well, I can't let you call me 'Auntie' for nothing. You've been kept very secret by your dad since you were little, and I've never given you anything. How about this, wasn't there someone named Xue Luo among the invincibles who attacked you last time?"

Su Yu was stunned. Xue Luo? It seemed there really was one, an invincible figure from the Bloodfire Demon Clan. He had been timid in front of Yun Jie outside the ancient city last time, but Su Yu still remembered him somewhat.

"It seems there's a guy named Xue Luo."

Yun Ying smiled and said, "Alright, since he bullied my nephew, then this time I'll find a chance to beat him to death, and then his body can be yours."

Su Yu was stunned. He felt that the dignified Demon King was like a little chick in Yun Ying's mouth, to be killed at will.

Moreover, isn't our own family's atmosphere a bit too aggressive?

Last time, when Grandpa killed the Night King and wiped out the Night Clan, he said he would give it to me as a birthday present. Now, this aunt I've never met before is saying she'll give me an invincible corpse. That's really... audacious!

The Night King's corpse is still lying in his storage space. He doesn't have a way to use the Invincible Corpse for the time being. He hasn't even used this one yet, and now he needs another one?

Seeing that Su Yu didn't speak, Yun Ying thought he was dissatisfied, so she quickly said, "Of course, Auntie can't be so stingy. But there were too many invincibles who attacked you last time, and I couldn't kill them all at once. I can only kill one and give it to you first. As for the rest, we'll see if there's an opportunity. As long as they don't die at the hands of others, I will help you kill them all one by one in the future."

Su Yu: "..."

He didn't know what to say. He felt that Yun Ying was exaggerating a lot. Everyone said she was comparable to Ye Batian, but even Ye Batian couldn't kill Wudi like a chicken, right?

Su Yu was still somewhat moved; he had sensed Yun Ying's feelings, no matter what.

"Alright, then I thank you in advance, Aunt."

"Haha, we're family, no need to be so polite. If you need anything in the future and Yun Chen doesn't help you, just come to your aunt. I'm the current head of the Great Xuan Mansion."

After saying that, Yun Ying gave Yun Chen a provocative look.

Yun Chen turned his head away, not wanting to see her smug look. She had clearly looked down on him before, but now she was... showing off.

“Okay,” Su Yu readily agreed.

"Alright, we haven't finished talking about the important matters yet."

Seeing that Yun Ying wanted to say something more, Yun Chen quickly stopped her. Yun Ying glared at Yun Chen with dissatisfaction, but did not say anything more.

Yun Chen quickly said, "You returned to the Human Realm this time through the Hunter's Pavilion's passage, right? That means you... infiltrated the Hunter's Pavilion? Hmm, Xinghong Ancient City... Xuan Jiu?"

Yun Chen has been the head of the Great Xuan Prefecture for over a hundred years. He has mastered many secrets, and he also knows about the plans of Yun Jie and the other invincible individuals. In addition, he spent some time in the ancient city last time, so he was able to deduce everything about Su Yu instantly.

Holy crap!

Su Yu felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through his mind. Had his secrets been exposed in an instant? Was it a bit too hasty?

Yun Chen nodded: "Judging from your reaction, I should have guessed correctly."

Yun Chen stroked his smooth chin and continued, "So you're contacting me now because you're planning to ask me for help to eliminate your rivals, expand your influence within the Hunter's Pavilion, and then wipe out everyone in the Hunter's Pavilion?"

Su Yu: "..."

You've already said everything, why are you still asking me?

"It's not that I can't help you, but I'm not in the human realm right now, so I can't help you. In that case, you can go find Zhang Jing; it's the same thing."

Su Yu said helplessly, "I can't get in touch with Prefect Zhang, and I can't even go back to the Great Xuan Prefecture now..."

"Pfft... Hahaha..."

Yun Ying couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Yun Chen ignored her and frowned slightly: "Since you don't want to reveal your identity, I'll have Zhang Jing pick you up. Just stay there and don't move."

As long as Su Yu reveals his identity, he will be safe. But now that he is under the identity of the Hunter's Pavilion, it would be strange if he were not in danger. As soon as he steps into the Great Xuan Mansion, he will be immediately struck by lightning.

"it is good."

Su Yu responded. He really didn't want too many people to know his current identity. The more people who knew, the greater the risk. Yun Chen might believe that his subordinates wouldn't cause any problems, but Su Yu wasn't at ease. Who knew? It was always better to be cautious.

Before Su Yu had to wait long, Zhang Jing flew towards him quickly after receiving Yun Chen's message.

At this moment, Zhang Jing was also secretly shocked. Su Yu was truly beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone thought that he would be trapped in the ancient city for the rest of his life, but unexpectedly, the ancient city could not trap him.

Putting aside others, he didn't believe it at first either. If Yun Chen hadn't told him, he would never have believed that Su Yu had actually escaped and even returned to the human realm!

Upon arriving at his destination, Zhang Jing stood suspended in mid-air, scanning the area with his eyes and rapidly spreading his willpower. He did not see Su Yu.

Ha, this kid's pretty good at hiding; I almost didn't even notice him.

"Stop hiding, come out."

Zhang Jing was feeling a bit tired. Su Yu was too cautious; he had already seen him, yet Su Yu still didn't come out.

After saying that, Su Yu emerged from a puddle and greeted him warmly, "Prefect, it's been a long time! How have you been lately?"

Zhang Jing ignored him and said, "Let's go."

Su Yu curled his lip. Well, he'd been met with indifference. Oh well, he'd let it go for now.

Under Zhang Jing's guidance, Su Yu successfully returned to Yao Guang City.

At the city gate.

Su Yu cupped his hands in greeting to Zhang Jing and said, "Prefect, I have some personal matters to attend to. I'll come to see you after I've finished."
