Chapter 266 – Stirring Up The Trouble

Yun Che hadn’t heard them mention what this “Sect’s Most Precious Treasure” was, but judging by how much they valued it, and how they even went to such great lengths in order to obtain it, he thought that it must be something extremely extraordinary. It might be something as “holy” as the Bodhi Emperor’s Heart Lotus.

Because the Sect Treasure was too precious, it even became the hope for Taisu Sect to rise from the top sect in Fusu Country to the top sect in Cang Yun Continent, thus it was crucial for this Sect Treasure to be used on someone! If it was used on an ordinary disciple, it would undoubtedly be a waste. Because of this matter must be careful, so until this generation, the “clan treasure” is still not used, but is hidden in an unknown place, and that hiding place, must be a special key to open. That special key is held in the hands of each successive Sect Master.

In this generation, it was in the hands of Su Hengshan.

Su Hengyue was an extremely ambitious person, he coveted that Sect’s greatest treasure when he was young, but although his qualifications were upstream, they were not yet stunning, so he did not dare to bring it up even though he had the idea. In the competition for the position of Sect Master, it was because he was too ambitious that he lost to Su Hengshan. But he also has quite a high prestige in Taisu Sect, and over the years, he has gathered quite a rich wing by various means, plus he has been vigorously pushing for cooperation with Blackwood Castle, and those who have this idea in Taisu Sect Elder’s Council have naturally all fallen to him.

Now, the reason why Su Heng Yue is so resolute in wanting Su Heng Shan to hand over the key to the most precious treasure, even going so far as to turn his back on Su Heng Shan, and also utilizing the power of the Blackwood Castle, is because of his son, Su Hao Yu!

Su Haoyu had just turned twenty this year, and his Xuan Force was already at the eighth level of the Spirit Xuan Realm! This had never been seen before in the history of Taisu Sect! He thought that with his son’s qualifications, he was fully qualified to obtain the sect’s greatest treasure. He had mentioned it to Su Hengshan time and time again, and even had people from his own faction join forces to pressure him, but Su Hengshan would never agree. Although Su Hao Yu’s qualifications were astonishing, he definitely could not reach the word “world-shattering” that his ancestor had repeatedly emphasized. Moreover, Su Hengyue has been harboring ambitions, if the sect treasure is really given to Su Hao Yu, in the future, the power of Taisu Sect will completely fall into Su Hengyue’s lineage……. In order to fulfill his own selfish desires, he even went so far as to judge Taisu Sect, relying on the power of the Blackwood Castle, Taisu Sect will be simply unimaginable in the future if it falls into his hands.

“Su Hengshan, if you had handed over the clan’s most precious treasure earlier, my son Hao Yu would have already soared to the sky, and in less than ten years, will lead the entire Taisu Sect to ascend to a height that we can only look up to now!” Su Heng Yue sneered, “Don’t think that we don’t know what’s in your heart, you are jealous of my son’s qualifications, and still want to swallow the sect’s treasure. Hey, it’s normal for people to be jealous and selfish, but you want the entire Taisu Sect to be dragged down by you, as an elder of the Taisu Sect, I will never agree to that!”

“You fart!” Su Haoran roared angrily, “It’s obviously you harboring selfishness and intending to dye the sect’s greatest treasure, but you turn around and spit blood, you simply don’t know shame!”

“Phew!” Su Heng Yue let out a cold voice, “When the old man hasn’t said anything yet, you who are the son are unable to calm down first. Could it be that you, the son of the Sect Master, think that you are more qualified than my family’s Hao Yu to enjoy that Sect’s greatest treasure? That’s right. If you can win against Haoyu, you’re naturally more qualified than Haoyu. Hao Yu, come out and compete with your Hao Ran clan brother.”

“Yes, father.”

Behind Su Heng Yue, a young man dressed in white, around twenty years old walked out, although his face was calm, the arrogance in his gaze was revealed, “Brother Haoran, it’s useless to talk more nonsense, as long as you can win me, this clan’s most precious treasure, I naturally have no shame in enjoying it, and we will definitely not have any objections to the Sect Master on this matter in the future, please. ”

“You!!!” Su Haoran’s face was suffocating red, but he didn’t dare to step forward at all. Although Su Haoyu was still half a year younger than him, but his Xuan power was already as high as the eighth level of the Spirit Xuan realm, there was no way he could be an opponent, and if he really exchanged blows, the only consequence for him would be to be abused with a gray face, and lose his face.

Su Hengshan also had his chest heaving, then viciously exhaled.

“What? Is it possible that Hao Ran clan brother doesn’t dare? Hey …… Haoran clan brother doesn’t need to be too nervous, it’s just a sparring match, I will definitely not be too heavy-handed, besides, in case you win my little brother, wouldn’t that be what you want?” Su Haoyu stretched out his finger towards Su Haoran, the corners of his mouth with a smile, his face full of mockery.

“Alright, all stop arguing.”

An old voice rang out, the Great Elder Su Oblivious Qi opened his eyes in his seat, his slow voice carried a heavy majesty, “In this matter, what Heng Yue did was indeed improper, but it was also justifiable. Hengshan ah, although the ancestor said that we should wait for a disciple who is world-shattering enough to appear before we can use the sect’s greatest treasure, the ‘world-shattering’ that the ancestor said can be interpreted in many ways. Hao Yu is a talent that my Taisu Sect has not seen in a hundred years, at only twenty years old, he has already stepped into the late stage of the Spirit Xuan Realm, which in the Fusu Country is also the word ‘world-shattering’, and in my opinion, he is fully qualified to enjoy the Sect’s Treasure. I dare guarantee that in the next few hundred years, it will be basically impossible for the Taisu Sect to have another disciple with qualifications comparable to Hao Yu’s!”

Su Oblivious Qi’s words were clearly biased towards Su Heng Yue’s side in every sentence, but there were some words that could not be refuted, he stared at Su Heng Shan and said indifferently, “Hao Yu is twenty years old this year, which isn’t too young, if he were to be a bit older, the effect of using the Sect’s Supreme Treasure would inevitably be greatly diminished. Hengshan, if you are still obsessed and keep holding on to the Sect Treasure, then if the Tai Su Sect never produces the so-called ‘amazing’ talent, will this Sect Treasure be sealed there forever? The sect could have soared to the heavens at an early date, but because of this, it has stagnated for a long time, and if the sect encounters a great difficulty one day, then it will be too late to utilize this sect’s treasure!”

Su Hengshan’s brows tightened more and more tightly …… If Su Hengyue was just an Elder of his own nature, and Su Hao Yu was also pure in nature, if there were enough people to suggest sacrificing the sect’s most precious treasure, Su Hengshan, although he would feel that it would not be right, he wouldn’t be so adamant. But the series of doings that Su Heng Yue’s lineage had in order to obtain the sect’s supreme treasure made it so that he could never compromise on this matter!

He could still be forgiven for pulling the faction together. But relying on the power of Blackwood Castle to exert pressure …… This is, in essence, simply an act of treason against the sect!

Handing over the sect’s most precious treasure to someone who was so desperate for profit that he would not hesitate to rebel against the sect, he would not agree to it even if he were to die!

“How about this?” Su Oblivious Qi narrowed his eyes and slowly said, “Hengshan, in the sect, you can arbitrarily pick any disciple under twenty years old, if any disciple can defeat Haoyu, the matter of the sect’s greatest treasure, Hengyue will not be allowed to mention it again in the future!”

Su Heng Yue and Su Haoyu’s faction all laughed, Su Heng Yue said with a straight face, “Good! As long as my Tai Su Sect’s people under the age of twenty, which one of them can defeat Hao Yu and prove that Hao Yu is not the most qualified person, I will immediately pat my butt and leave, I will not mention a single word about this sect’s most precious treasure, and I will also make reparations to Sect Leader for today’s ‘inappropriate’ behavior… …But what if no one can defeat Hao Yu??”

“Then please, Yokoyama, hand over the key to the sect’s greatest treasure to Haoyu. I believe that the Council of Elders, as well as all the fellow sect members present, do not want to see this matter continue any further.” Su Forgetfulness Ji slowly said.

Su Hengshan clenched his hands tightly, his fingers snapping, he was just about to angrily rebuke, when suddenly, a teenager’s arrogant voice came from the side.

“Good proposal! What a good proposal! Worthy of being a Tai Elder, even the proposal is so level-headed, such a good proposal, of course I raise my hands in favor of it!”

Yun Che had a smile on his face as he walked over unhurriedly, and in his hand, he was holding Su Ling’er, who had a nervous face and was snuggled tightly at Yun Che’s side.

When Yun Che really couldn’t look on and walked out from the Qilong Pavilion, he just happened to see Su Ling’er who was hiding behind a tree and peeking. Seeing him come out of the room, Su Ling’er hurriedly trotted over and said in an urgent voice: ”Brother Yun Che! Father said it, you can’t go over there! It’s so dangerous over there.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t be in danger.” Yun Che smiled and said, “Ling’er, you stay here and must not approach …… When this matter is resolved, I will accompany you to play.”

After saying that, Yun Che was about to move forward, and just as he took a step, he stopped once again and said to Su Ling’er, “Ling’er, do you believe that I can protect you?”

Looking at Yun Che’s eyes, Su Ling’er nodded her head vigorously without thinking, “Uh-huh!”

“Then, we’ll go over there together! By my side, no one can harm you!!!” Yun Che gently said, then pulled Su Ling’er’s hand. Because in his heart, his side was the safest place for Su Ling’er, anywhere else, he wouldn’t be at ease.

The moment Yun Che’s arrogant voice came out, it instantly made him the center of attention in the room. Su Hengshan was instantly startled: ”Little brother Yun, and Ling’er …… why have you come! Hurry up and get out of here, what’s going on here has nothing to do with you, and it’s not the place for you to be right now!!!”

Yun Che had made a move to save Su Ling’er earlier, and if Blackwood Castle recognized him as the person who had ruined their important plan, they might set their sights on him for that. As for Su Ling’er, her arrival here was even more dangerous. As soon as Su Bai’s words came out, he already had the intention of completely tearing his face off and then making his move. This was by no means a place they should come to.

“Father, I …… am not afraid, I’ll come to cheer for father.” Su Ling’er smiled sweetly towards Su Hengshan, but she moved her body one point closer to Yun Che, and her two small hands gripped Yun Che’s palm tightly.

“I was the one who wanted to bring Ling’er here, because I don’t feel at ease placing Ling’er outside of my side.” Yun Che stood to his side and said in a low voice, “But please don’t worry Elder Su, even if I die, I won’t let Ling’er hurt a single hair.”

“…… “Su Hengshan looked at Yun Che’s eyes and froze for a moment……. He had weathered the storms for decades, and had heard similar and like words many, many times, but there was not a single time that could, like this time This time, there was no other time that could move him like this. That sentence, “Even if I die, I won’t let Ling’er get hurt by a single hair,” was not only spoken from Yun Che’s mouth, but it also originated from his will and soul. …… Looking at Yun Che’s eyes and feeling the will contained in his voice, he was convinced that if he had to protect Ling’er at the cost of his life, then he would be able to do it with the help of his own life. as the price in order to protect Ling’er, he would definitely choose to let himself die without hesitation.

He gently held Su Ling’er’s hand, with that hazy sense of loftiness, as if he was guarding his entire world.

And Su Ling’er was also firmly grasping him, snuggling up to him, and even when she reached him as her father, she still stayed by his side instead of lunging at him. Her eyes were filled with worry for him, but the only thing she didn’t have was fear …… as if she wasn’t afraid of anything as long as she could snuggle up to him.

Yun Che and his daughter had obviously only met and gotten to know each other today, and he couldn’t understand why the two of them would have this level of emotional fit. He believed that even two people who had been inseparable for more than ten years would find it difficult to reach this kind of unadulterated guardianship and dependence.

Could it be that it was really some kind of heavenly destiny?
