Chapter 221: This Person is My Master, Su Changyu Is Confused
“Catch the princess alive and you’ll be rewarded with a golden elixir.”
“Kill the princess and you’ll be rewarded with a supreme-grade treasure.”
“Don’t let the princess escape.”
The deafening roars filled the air.
Before Su Changyu could snap back to his senses, a figure appeared in front of Su Changyu.
It was a beautiful woman who was wearing a green dress. She was really gorgeous, but at this moment, she looked extremely nervous and anxious.
“Your Excellency, please help me.”
As soon as the woman appeared and saw Su Changyu, her eyes were full of shock and surprise.
It was mostly because Su Changyu’s looks were simply too stunning.
Looking at the woman in front of him and thinking of the noises that he had just heard, Su Changyu immediately understood what had happened.
He thought that the woman in front of him was probably some princess who was being assassinated.
According to usual circumstances, he would definitely have to rescue her. They would then fall in love with each other and experience all sorts of trials and tribulations before their romance finally came to fruition.
Cheng Lingrou had told him about that storyline more than once.
However, the problem was that such a thing would definitely not happen to him.
Well, because he was an ascetic person.
Besides, with his cultivation level, Su Changyu definitely would not like her.
At the thought of this, Su Changyu moved to the side with a calm gaze and stopped looking at her.
“Your Excellency, I am the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty and this bunch of people are the disciples of the Heavenly Fiend Cult. If you save me, the Great Qian Dynasty would definitely thank you and reward you handsomely.”
The woman revealed her origin.
However, Su Changyu couldn’t help but be shocked.
‘How could the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty be chased by a heretical cult that’s trying to kill her?’
‘Shouldn’t an existence of her level be protected by countless powerhouses in her entourage when she goes out?’
‘Besides, why would the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty appear in the Great Xia Dynasty?’
‘Oh right, where is the Great Qian Dynasty?’
Su Changyu was full of doubts. It was not that he was poorly educated, but rather, he wasn’t interested in such geographical knowledge.
Besides, Su Changyu belonged to the Qingyun Dao Sect and where was the Qingyun Dao Sect?
It was one of the 19 sects of Qingyun Mountains, one of the seven mountain ranges of the Baiyun Ancient City, which was one of the 108 ancient cities of Qingzhou. Qingzhou was one of the 33 states of Jin Nation.
There was obviously no need for Su Changyu to find out about the Great Qian Dynasty.
If it wasn’t for Ye Ping, Su Changyu would have never gone out of Qingzhou before. Firstly, it was because he often got lost during his journey. Secondly, there was no need for him to leave Qingzhou.
Su Changyu was naturally curious when he heard that she was the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty because he couldn’t imagine it at all.
The royal hierarchy was not something that a cultivator of his level had the right to understand.
After all, in the world of immortal cultivation, all knowledge was gained from ancient books or legends, and it was normal for Su Changyu not to understand anything, just like how Ye Ping didn’t realize at all that he was in the world of immortal cultivation for the three years that he had spent studying.
However, no matter what the identity of the woman was and what trouble she was in, Su Changyu was determined not to bother.
Since it did not concern him, he would stay out of it.
He would never intervene in anything that did not concern him because he didn’t want to get into unnecessary trouble.
Hence, at the thought of this, Su Changyu stayed silent and turned to the side. He looked extremely aloof and his body language seemed to be telling her not to seek help from him because he didn’t know her.
However, in the eyes of the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, Su Changyu was like a peerless Sword Immortal and his looks and aura were just like that of a peerless expert.
In fact, others would flee as fast as they could if they were being chased but Su Changyu actually stayed still.
Even when she said that she was the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, Su Changyu did not seem surprised at all.
She thought that he must be a peerless expert.
Although she did not know why Su Changyu was standing at the side, she knew that he would definitely be able to save her.
However, at this moment, hundreds of figures appeared.
They were all dressed in black with a faint bloody aura around them. They were all heretical cultivators.
While they were standing there, Su Changyu made everyone’s heart shudder.
When everyone appeared, they looked at Su Changyu immediately.
The initial agitation and zeal in his eyes immediately became calm.
Su Changyu’s looks were really extraordinary.
Other experts would seem like ordinary people, but Su Changyu’s vibe was just like that of a supreme expert.
Hence, everyone was scared.
They subconsciously thought that Su Changyu was an expert sent by the Great Qian Dynasty.
Sensing the hesitation of the Heavenly Fiend Cult disciples, the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty spoke up immediately.
“Master, I’ve already lured that group of heretical cultivators here, so I will leave the rest to you.”
The Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty was quick-witted and hurriedly called Su Changyu her Master, making them feel like it was all just a scheme.
In an instant, the Heavenly Fiend Cult disciples had a change of expression.
To be honest, it was too easy for them to launch a sneak attack on the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, so much that they couldn’t help but find it bizarre.
Now that they saw this scene, they instantly understood that they had been trapped.
Su Changyu was completely dumbfounded.
“Master?”
‘How did I become your Master?’
‘Girl, you’re not being very ethical.’
‘Aren’t you messing with me?’
Su Changyu wanted to explain but he realized that he couldn’t bring himself to do so.
He didn’t know if it was because his ailment was acting up.
In the face of Su Changyu’s silence, the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty was slightly relieved. She was worried that Su Changyu might refute.
However, she didn’t expect Su Changyu to stay silent. It was no wonder that he was a supreme expert.
“Ninth Princess, you don’t have to pretend and get up to so many tricks. When did you have a master? Why have we never heard of it?”
However, not all the Heavenly Fiend Cult disciples were fools. Someone stared at the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty and was certain that she was putting on an act.
“Everyone, don’t be fooled, this person is only a Qi Refinement cultivator. We can kill him easily with a single sneeze. The Ninth Princess is scaring us.”
“Yes, if he’s really a supreme expert, he would have long been killed by us. Why would he be waiting for us here?”
“Yeah, she’s getting up to so many tricks. Kill him if he dares to step forward. We’ll catch the princess alive and be rewarded with a golden pill.”
The voices sounded. They weren’t as stupid as to believe everything she said.
After all, Su Changyu did look like a peerless powerhouse, but the problem was that his realm could not be concealed and they could tell at a glance that he was a Qi Refinement cultivator.
Of course, there was a possibility that Su Changyu suppressed his realm.
That was also the reason that they did not dare to go forward and could only shout loudly to embolden themselves and give themselves more courage.
However, unfortunately, no one went forward to court their own deaths.
“How foolish and ignorant.”
However, the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty sneered. She behaved out of the ordinary as she wasn’t as nervous as she was previously and instead, she was full of confidence.
She stared at them, clearly full of contempt.
“Would a true powerhouse allow you to see through his realm?”
“No wonder the Heavenly Fiend Cult has failed to make a name for itself in the Great Qian Dynasty. Turns out you’re all just a bunch of fools.”
The Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty was extremely confident and conceited.
It was not that she was too immersed in acting, but rather, she believed that Su Changyu was an expert and was just cold and aloof.
Although Su Changyu did not take the initiative to help her, he did not turn her down either. That proved that he would still help her.
Indeed, after she said that, everyone was even more cautious.
They looked at each other, clearly at a loss for what to do.
They did not dare to go forth.
They did not dare to retreat either.
However, at this moment, everyone took a step forward and pointed at Su Changyu.
“Everyone, don’t be deceived. This person’s clothes are not that of the Great Qian Dynasty at all. It’s the design of the Great Xia Dynasty.”
“He’s not the master of the Ninth Princess, he should just be a passerby.”
The person had a sharp sense of observation and he could tell at a glance that Su Changyu’s clothes were not that of the Great Qian Dynasty.
As soon as he said that, everyone couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu.
Besides, Su Changyu couldn’t help but be overjoyed.
‘Yes, yes, you’re right. I don’t know her, I really don’t.’
“What a joke, can’t my master be from the Great Xia Dynasty?”
The Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty continued. She knew that her hope of escape today was to use Su Changyu to deter the cultists.
“You’re panicking!”
However, the man who pointed out Su Changyu’s clothes took a step forward and said confidently.
As soon as he said that, the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty was obviously a little flustered.
“I really did not guess wrongly. Everyone says that the royal princes and princesses are all loafers who only know to have fun. I never thought that you would be so intelligent, Ninth Princess.”
“Unfortunately, your good luck is about to end here.”
He was the leader of the Heavenly Fiend Cult.
Although he was masked, the joy in his eyes could not be concealed.
In the beginning, they thought that Su Changyu was going to interfere with their plans, but to their surprise, Su Changyu was just a passerby.
In that case, they were naturally overjoyed.
“Lord, what do we do about this person? Should we kill him?”
While they were being overjoyed, someone suddenly spoke up and looked at Su Changyu.
However, as soon as he said that, all the cultists had a change of expression, especially the leader who was now frowning.
After hearing that, Su Changyu couldn’t help but panic.
‘You guys are trying to catch the Ninth Princess, why are you getting me involved?’
‘I’m just here to look for my relatives. I’m really just passing by, I really don’t know this Ninth Princess.’
Su Changyu was simply dejected.
However, the leader of the cult actually suddenly attacked and slapped him.
“Unbridled!”
His gaze was full of a murderous intent. He then bowed to Su Changyu.
“Senior, please simmer down. We know that you’re just passing by and that you don’t want to get involved. My subordinate really doesn’t know how to talk. Please forgive me.”
The leader of the Heavenly Fiend Cult looked at Su Changyu and said seriously.
He did not know whether Su Changyu was pretending or not.
However, the main point was that regardless of whether Su Changyu was pretending or not, their target was the Ninth Princess of the Great Qian Dynasty, not Su Changyu.
Hence, they did not want to cause any trouble. Regardless of whether Su Changyu was pretending or not, they just wouldn’t offend him.
Hence, when his subordinate said that, he naturally had to slap him, lest he angered Su Changyu.
After hearing his words, Su Changyu couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.
‘They’re really particular.’
However, Su Changyu felt that he had to answer. Otherwise, it would seem really awkward.
Thinking of this, Su Changyu tried his best to calm down.
He then couldn’t help but make a remark.
“A bunch of scums.”
His voice wasn’t loud but everyone heard him.
Everyone was astonished.
It was extremely awkward.
In particular, the cultivators of the Heavenly Fiend Cult.
However, they genuinely did not know what to say.
The Ninth Princess was the happiest.
She thought that it was going to be over for her but she didn’t expect the Heavenly Fiend Cult to seek their own death.
How could she not be happy?
However, the person who was the most upset… was definitely Su Changyu.
He knew that he was acting up again.
However, Su Changyu was furious this time.
He usually didn’t feel that upset. Even when he acted up in the ruins, he could bear with it.
After all, the powerhouse in the ruins was only an incarnation of the spiritual body who did not care about him at all.
But why did he act up now?
Su Changyu was furious.
‘I pretend to be impressive regardless of the time and place’
He liked boasting, but he really didn’t want to do so now because his life was at stake.
At this moment, Su Changyu was infuriated and he wished he could slap himself.
Fortunately, his words made the Heavenly Fiend Cult disciples too scared to act presumptuously.
After all, he was clearly a powerhouse since he still dared to say that at this time. Otherwise, who would dare to brag?
If anyone was still bragging now, they must be crazy.
“Senior, this matter is indeed my subordinate talking nonsense. If it’s making you uncomfortable, I’m willing to appease you by beheading him. How does that sound?”
He continued, not wanting to create more trouble.
However, Su Changyu didn’t say a single word and was merely looking at the bunch of Heavenly Fiend Cult disciples calmly.
The latter was shocked by his gaze.
They were at a loss for what to do.
They definitely couldn’t hit him.
They thought that Su Changyu’s confidence definitely wasn’t just a facade.
“Senior, the Heavenly Fiend Cult is not something to be messed with. The Ninth Princess of the Heavenly Fiend Cult is not related to you, she might cause more trouble for you if you intervene.”
The other party said earnestly.
He persuaded Su Changyu not to create more trouble.
However, Su Changyu could no longer control himself, especially after hearing his threatening tone.
In an instant, not only could Su Changyu not even control his speech, but he even lost control of his body.
Clang!
With some light, the Frosty White Immortal Sword appeared.
In an instant, the surrounding temperature plunged.
Everyone felt a chilliness in their hearts.
It made them feel as if they had landed in an ice cellar.
“Supreme Sword Immortal!”
“This is a supreme Sword Immortal.”
“He really is a peerless expert.”
Sss!
The disciples of the Heavenly Fiend Cult couldn’t help but turn pale.
To be honest, before Su Changyu took out his sword, everyone thought that he was still just pretending.
But when Su Changyu pulled it out, they were flustered.
However, before Su Changyu attacked…
In an instant, an invincible sword aura appeared.
The disciples of the Heavenly Fiend Cult had died there.
Su Changyu was confused.
He hadn’t attacked yet.
‘What’s going on?’
However, in the next moment, he heard an extremely loud voice.
“Protect the princess!”
“Princess, I’m here to rescue you.”
