Chapter 83.1 Destroy

After seeing the annihilation of the Taixu Sect through the Water Mirror, Su Su wanted to go to Taixu with Gongye Jiwu to have a look.

Qu Xuanzi had been at the bottleneck of the middle stage of Ascension for almost a hundred years, and right now, he’d had a moment of enlightenment, so he needed to go into seclusion to break through.  

Knowing that Su Su wanted to go to Taixu with Gongye Jiwu, Qu Xuanzi said, “Su Su, don’t go to Taixu Mountain, go to the Cangyuan Secret Realm.”

“Why?”

“You’ve just started cultivating the Heartless Dao. Before you achieve your great Dao, try to avoid great demons and devils. Su Su, it’s difficult for a person to reach adulthood, and the same is true for immortals. The ancient gods fell a long time ago, and for ten thousand years, no one has ascended to godhood. The Three Realms and common people need gods, so you shouldn’t take risks before you’re fully fledged. Instead, until the day you can turn the tide, achieve your own Dao and protect yourself first before guarding the common people.”

Su Su was stunned. It had been too long since someone had told her to protect herself first.

“The Cangyuan Secret Realm offers opportunities to gain experience and enhance one’s strength, as well as chances for fortuitous encounters. The immortal sword isn’t suitable for you. When you were young, the only sword technique you enjoyed learning was the Qinghong Sword Technique. The Heartless Dao is already beyond the Five Elements¹五行 (wǔxíng) – five elements (metal, wood, water, fire, and earth; believed by the ancients to make up the physical universe, later used in traditional Chinese medicine to explain various physiological and pathological phenomena). Dad doesn’t know what happened to Curved Jade, who’d accompanied you since your childhood, but you need a new opportunity.”

Hearing Qu Xuanzi mention Curved Jade, Su Su stayed silent.

The divine Heartless Dao in her spiritual core was wrapped in red threads. Su Su didn’t know what they were, but she had a gut feeling that she needed to look into it.

She lived in the Bamboo Flower Grove for half a month. The first thing she saw when she went out was a chirping little spirit bird landing on the shoulder of a white-clad teenager.

These spirit birds were close to Su Su, often accompanying her from time to time, and helping her to guard her home.

“Fuya,” Su Su called out to him.

Yue Fuya turned his head, “Senior Sister, I’m here to pick you up.”

This time, he was also going to enter the Cangyuan Secret Realm. Yue Fuya had entered the sect late, and Qu Xuanzi had brought him over personally from his old friend and taught him carefully.

Although he was Su Su’s junior brother, he was very mature. 

Su Su nodded, “I’m going to look for Senior Brother first to bid him farewell.”

“I’ll go with Senior Sister,” Yue Fuya said.

Thus, Su Su walked ahead and Yue Fuya followed her.

Numerous flowers bloomed in the Bamboo Flower Grove, and several butterflies fluttered about among them. Some of them landed on the ribbon in Su Su’s hair. Today, she didn’t cover her face with the mermaid yarn veil, revealing her beautiful appearance.

Yue Fuya glanced at her and immediately lowered his gaze.

Gongye Jiwu didn’t live far away, and his cultivation focused on guarding his heart, so he was still attending daily morning classes like ordinary disciples.

Qu Xuanzi had taught him personally, and later he took on his own responsibilities and would sometimes teach Su Su and Fuya.

He had a gentle temperament. Towards Su Su, who was lazy as a child, he would always helplessly turn a blind eye.

But when teaching Fuya, he would be more strict.

When Su Su arrived, she saw a man in white talking to a woman in green under a peach blossom tree, looking like a perfect couple.

Every expression of hers³一颦一笑 (yīpínyīxiào) – lit. Every frown and every smile. was extremely moving.

She raised her eyes, intently looking at Gongye Jingwu with strong admiration in her eyes. It was Yao Guang.

Su Su looked at Senior Sister Yao Guang, sighing a little inside, and didn’t go over to disturb them.

In the world with the Devil God, Gongye Jiwu had died in the battle, and Yao Guang had unhesitantly died for love. Yao Guang was the disciple of Martial Uncle Qing⁴清 (qīng) – clear; pure Qian⁵谦 (qiān) – modest/humble, and the entire Hengyang Sect knew she liked Gongye Jiwu. She was nothing like Ye Bing Shang. She was like a ball of bright and colorful fire, unrestrained and enthusiastic.

The former Gongye Jiwu had never said he liked her even up until his death.

However, Senior Sister Yao Guang still hadn’t hesitated to follow him.

Su Su admired Yao Guang, and also hoped that her Eldest Senior Brother would respond to Senior Sister.

Fuya stood quietly beside Su Su and didn’t go over.

Although they didn’t make a sound, Gongye Jiwu was extremely sharp, and he could see through the peach blossom tree at just a glance.

“Junior Brother, Junior Sister.”

Su Su had no choice but to come out. “Senior Brother, Senior Sister Yao Guang,” she called out with a smile.

Yao Guang saw Su Su and smiled at her with a wink.

“Dad has just gone into seclusion. I came here today to tell Senior Brother that I’m going to enter the Cangyuan Secret Realm to gain experience. If Senior Brother goes to Taixu, you must pay attention to your own safety and mustn’t take risks,” Su Su said.

Hearing her words, Gongye Jiwu said, “There are many dangers in the Cangyuan Secret Realm. Junior Sister, you’ve just come out of seclusion and it might be beyond your strength. If you want something, just tell Senior Brother and I’ll help you find it.”

Yao Guang also nodded repeatedly, “Exactly.”

“You needn’t worry about me, I’m strong enough to protect myself in the Cangyuan Secret Realm. Dad always said that the Great Dao is fearless and we shouldn’t be overly cautious⁶畏首畏尾 (wèishǒu-wèiwěi) – afraid of the head, terrified of the tail (idiom); ever fearful and nervous. Since I’m going to gain experience, how can others replace me? Senior Brother, trust me, I’ll return safely.”

Gongye Jiwu looked into her eyes, and seeing how serious she looked, he nodded, “Alright, I’ll be going to Taixu Mountain and can’t look after you guys, you and Fuya will have to be more careful.”

Su Su solemnly agreed.

A total of thirty disciples from Hengyang Sect would be going. Elder Qing Wu lit a soul lamp for each disciple so if anything untoward should happen, the sect would be timely alerted and could get justice.

Gongye Jiwu gave Su Su a bunch of defensive magical artifacts. If not for Su Su’s firm refusal, he even wanted to give Su Su his natal immortal sword, ‘Blazing Sky’.

Yao Guang smiled as she watched. She wouldn’t be going to the secret realm as she would be following Gongye Jiwu to Taixu.

Qing Wu summoned an immortal ship from the Qiankun pouch in his sleeve, and all the disciples boarded it.

“Now, everyone must be careful and vigilant after entering Cangyuan. Fuya, you must take good care of your Junior Brothers and Martial Nephews,” Qing Wu said.

At his words, Yue Fuya cupped his fist and said, “This disciple knows.”

Cultivation was an ongoing journey that required consistent accumulation of experiences. Qing Wu looked serious as he watched the disciples leave.
