2657 Chapter 2548: Scheming against each other
The restaurant waited for a moment.
Suddenly, a ripple of water-like space appeared around Su Yu.
Yanran then walked out from within.
She glanced at Su Yu, who was wearing a bamboo hat. She wasn’t sure. “You are?”
Su Yu didn’t say a word. Eight domains circulated in his palm.
“Greetings, Senior!”Yanran’s beautiful face lit up.
Other than this mysterious expert from Dao Yuan, who else had learned their eight hegemonic domains?
“Sit.”Su Yu made an inviting gesture.
Yanran happily sat down. Her eyes were filled with anticipation. “Senior, how is that soul beckoning scholar?”
This person was one of the people that Shao Hao feared the most in the dream boundary.
He had always wanted to get rid of him.
However, this soul summoning scholar was exceptionally cunning. He was hidden deep within the hall of the Broken Moon Empress and would never go out.
It was too difficult to kill him.
Su Yu took out a jade box and gently rubbed it with his palm.
One could see a struggling weak soul inside.
“Soul Summoning Scholar!”Yanran screamed in surprise. “Senior, you are too powerful!”
Although she had high hopes for Su Yu, she was still mentally prepared for failure.
After all, the soul beckoning scholar was too difficult to kill.
She did not expect that he would actually succeed.
Her respect for Su Yu deepened.
Only an expert like senior could enter the waning Moon Hall and kill the soul beckoning scholar as if there was no one there.
“Have you brought the time-controlling magic treasure?”Su Yu asked.
The sweet smile disappeared and she said with a bitter smile, “I can only be considered Shao Hao’s advisor. How can I be qualified to take charge of such an important time-controlling magic treasure on his behalf?”
She gave him a relieved smile. “Senior, don’t worry. Since you’ve successfully killed the soul-beckoning scholar, I believe Shao Hao will hand over the time-controlling magic treasure to you as promised. When I return to report, I believe Shao Hao will personally meet you.”
Personally meet him?
The current Su Yu was not afraid of meeting him.
“Senior, please wait a moment. I’ll rush back to report to Emperor Shao Hao right away.”Yanran was in an extremely good mood.
She could already imagine the scene of her being praised by Emperor Shao Hao.
“Hold on.”Su Yu suddenly spoke. “There’s something I don’t know if I should say.”
Yanran noticed that Su Yu’s tone was abnormal, so she became careful. “Senior, there’s no harm in saying it.”
“How much do you think Emperor Shao Hao trusts you?”Su Yu asked pointedly.
Yanran rolled her eyes and said, “If it was someone else, I can only say that Shaohao trusts me completely. But in front of senior, I can only tell you half of it! I know that Shaohao has been sending people to spy on me.”
Just like how the Soul Beckoning Scholar was being watched by the Broken Moon Empress.
Shaohao was also worried about Yanran.
Otherwise, when they went to the sacred city, Shaohao wouldn’t have arranged for Biyun Hong and her father to go with them.
“It’s good that you know what to do,”Su Yu said.
Yanran suddenly felt a little worried and probed, “Senior, are you asking about this because you have something you want to tell me?”
Su Yu nodded. “When I came to North Bright City, I accidentally met some suspicious people. Through the soul realm, I found some secrets.”
“It has something to do with me?”Yanran’s heart tightened.
Su Yu nodded. “I’m not sure. I just want to remind you because we are fated.”
His half-hidden words made Yanran even more uneasy.
She looked solemn and bowed respectfully. “Please speak clearly, senior. Yanran is eternally grateful.”
Su Yu said, “I accidentally found that a few tunnel masters are discussing the matter of hunting you.”
He waved his finger in the air and an image appeared.
It was big, second, and third. They were gathered in the pavilion to discuss the assassination.
The word “Yanran”could be heard occasionally.
Yanran was extremely vigilant when she saw this scene. She stared at the three people in the image.
“Do you know them?”Su Yu asked.
Yanran shook her head. Her expression was especially grave. “I’ve never seen them before.”
However, it was precisely because she had never seen them before that she felt even more uneasy.
This was because she was unable to confirm whether the three of them had been sent by Emperor Shao Hao or someone else.
“Perhaps they were sent by another faction,”Yanran consoled herself.
Su Yu said indifferently, “I hope so. However, you’d better be mentally prepared. With Shao Hao as a person, how can you allow others to sleep on your side?”
Yanran clenched her fists, her mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.
She was truly worried that it was Shao Hao’s doing.
During the trip to the time wilderness, Yanran had held back. She did not hand over all of her sovereign artifacts, only a small portion.
Shao Hao was probably suspicious of this as well.
She was a little worried. Shao Hao wanted to use this opportunity to kill her and take away all of his sovereign artifacts.
“Thank you for your reminder, senior. Yanran will be on guard,”Yanran said uneasily.
“Mm, go. Tell Emperor Shao Hao to bring his time-controlling magic treasure here tomorrow, right here and now.”
“Yes, Senior!”
Yanran left, worried about her gains and losses, leaving Su Yu behind with a slight smile.
He had no hope of persuading Yanran to betray him with just one sentence.
All he had to do was beat around the bush and plant a seed of suspicion in Yanran’s heart. Then, this trip would not have been in vain.
Next, he only needed to let this seed germinate and grow.
Then, he would have succeeded!
After Yanran left, Su Yu casually tapped on the table.
A squirming eye slowly sank into the table.
Then, Su Yu himself left.
Half a day later.
A few sneaky tunnel masters quietly came to this private room.
After sizing up the surroundings, the leading tunnel master shook his head and said, “He has already left. Quickly arrange it.”
They each took out an extremely high-grade array flag and arranged it in the box.
Those array flags were very unique and were not inferior to Ji Wu.
Once the arrangement was completed, it would be difficult to detect their existence.
But different from Ji Wu, those array flags were not used for shielding, but for sealing and attacking.
In a cultivation cave far away.
Su Yu sat cross-legged.
His body in front of a suspended eye, reflecting everything in the room.
“Hha, as expected.”Su Yu sneered: “Shao Hao is still reluctant to part with that piece of Time Master Magic Weapon.”
Not only does Emperor Shao Hao not intend to redeem the agreement.
Also want to take the opportunity to kill Su Yu, take Su Yu Body Time Master Magic Treasure.
“Really accord with your consistent behavior.”Su Yu’s eyes are incomparably calm: “However, calculate me, I’m afraid you calculate wrong person, tomorrow, we meet again.”
The next day.
In the restaurant.
Su Yu entered the restaurant as if nothing had happened.
When he arrived, there were already several core figures of Emperor Shaohao in the restaurant.
Among them were Yanran and Biyun Hong Xian.
“Where’s Shaohao?”Su Yu asked expressionlessly.
Yanran said apologetically, “Emperor Shaohao is still on his way. Please wait patiently.”
Su Yu smiled and sat down calmly.
Bi Yun Hong Xian, on the other hand, stared at Su Yu without blinking.
Her eyes were filled with excitement and joy.
However, she acted as if she didn’t know Su Yu and stood at the side without saying a word.
“On Your Way Here?”Su Yu asked calmly.
She wasn’t on her way here. She was obviously late on purpose.
The ones who came the latest were the ones with the highest status.
Shao Hao did not feel that his status was lower than Su Yu’s.
As expected, Shao Hao only arrived late when Su Yu had just arrived.
