However, at this moment, the Water Ancestral Magus in Su Yu’s water apertures was an empty shell, a figment of his imagination.
If he wanted to truly possess the power of an Ancestral Magus, Su Yu would probably have to obtain extremely high attainments in the Path of Water.
With the power of intent that Su Yu had comprehended, he advanced step by step towards the rules of water. The image of Gonggong in the apertures in Su Yu’s body gradually solidified. It no longer looked as if it would dissipate at any time.
As Ji Yang protected Su Yu, he had a numb expression on his face. After sensing the aura of the rules of water on Su Yu, Ji Yang had already come to terms with reality.
That was, in this world, there was really an abnormal person who could comprehend the power of rules overnight.
However, the power of rules on Su Yu’s body could not be compared to an old fellow like Ji Yang who had been in the King Realm for a long time.
With Su Yu’s cultivation speed, it was only a matter of time before he surpassed Ji Yang. Perhaps at some point, Su Yu would suddenly have an epiphany and directly leave him far behind.
Just like that, after Su Yu touched the threshold of the power of rules of water, the power of the water intent realm that he had comprehended began to naturally transform into the power of rules.
Finally, when a trace of blue power of rules of water slowly condensed in Su Yu’s sea of consciousness, Su Yu directly ended this short seclusion.
“Thank you, Senior.” Su Yu stood up and cupped his hands at Ji Yang.
“Young friend, your skills are peerless, your aptitude is comparable to that of a sage!” At this moment, Ji Yang also spoke to Su Yu with a shocked expression.
As for Ji Ruoyan, her body trembled slightly when she heard the elder’s words.
Ji Ruoyan had seen some of the concepts regarding sage aptitude in the ancient books recorded in her family.
It was rumored that a sage comprehended the path overnight and broke through the barrier of the world to go to a wider world.
Anyway, there were all kinds of rumors, but the records about these sages were basically just a few words.
If Su Yu could hear Ji Ruoyan’s guess, he would probably suspect that those sages were survivors from the other worlds’ who had relocated to other sea areas.
In response to Ji Yang’s words, Su Yu hurriedly waved his hand and said, “Senior, you flatter me. How would I dare to compare myself to the ancient sages?”
Su Yu was not thick-skinned enough to think that he could compare to a sage.
Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Ji Yang took it as him being humble, but he did not continue to praise him.
After all, some things could only be praised once. If he said too much, the praises would sound fake.
“Little friend Su, I’ve just comprehended something, so I’ll go back to cultivate in seclusion. If you have anything to say, just tell Little Yan.”
At this moment, Ji Yang also spoke to Su Yu in a deep voice.
In fact, his words were just an excuse. Ji Yang had suffered a blow and wanted to go back and face the wall to recuperate. In addition, he wanted to create a private environment for Ji Ruoyan and Su Yu.
If Su Yu were to somehow become affiliated with the Ji Clan, Ji Yang would be able to smile in his sleep.
In Ji Yang’s opinion, if Su Yu’s talent continued to grow, he would definitely be able to protect the Ji Clan for 10,000 years.
Ji Yang’s plan was indeed good, but he had overlooked a problem. Su Yu would not stay in a Level 1 sea area forever.
When his strength reached a certain level, Su Yu would definitely go to a higher level sea area.
In addition, it was indeed difficult to match Su Yu up with Ji Ruoyan.
Ji Yang quickly rushed back to cultivate in seclusion, leaving Ji Ruoyan and Su Yu in the courtyard.
“President Ji, when will the Myriad Commerce Association hold another auction?” After Ji Yang left, Su Yu directly changed the topic.
“Ah, an auction. There’s a monthly auction tomorrow. Sir Su, do you want to participate?”
At this moment, Ji Ruoyan, whose mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts, immediately spoke out of reflex after hearing Su Yu’s questions.
“That’s right. Didn’t I miss it last time? I happen to have time this time,” Su Yu replied directly.
Actually, Su Yu wanted to see if he could get anything for cheap at the auction.
After all, according to novels, people with great luck could encounter treasures when they went out!
Su Yu felt that his luck might not be that heaven-defying, but it should not be too bad. The reason he thought this was because he could find the Indestructible Golden Body in the vast sea area. If this was not luck, what was it?
“Sir Su, this is the list of items to be auctioned tomorrow. You should take a look first.”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Ji Ruoyan took out an auction catalog from her storage ring and handed it to him.
Unknowingly, Ji Ruoyan had begun to address Su Yu respectfully.
After casually taking the catalog from Ji Ruoyan’s hand, Su Yu casually flipped through it.
After glancing at the list on the catalog book, Su Yu focused his attention onto the strange item section and the mysterious section.
As for the rest, they were basically items that had been appraised by the auctioneer of the Myriad Commerce Association.
Su Yu quickly flipped to the mysterious chapter. The first thing that entered his sight was a blue egg.
[Mysterious Egg]
Description: It was salvaged from an ancient ruin in the deep sea. There is still a weak vital reaction from the egg. It is suspected to be a sea beast egg. The exact species is unknown.
An item that could not be appraised by the Myriad Commerce Association and looked quite mysterious would be classified as a mystery.
In the subsequent auctions, if anyone could tell what creature this egg was, they could completely get it for cheaper. However, whether it could hatch depended on the buyer’s ability.
After looking at this page, Su Yu continued to read.
Ji Ruoyan did not say anything to disturb Su Yu.
At this moment, as she sat at the side, she became more and more interested in Su Yu!
First of all, there was naturally nothing to say about Su Yu’s appearance. His physique had been tempered for so long, so it was unreasonable for him to still look ugly.
Then there was Su Yu’s talent, the sage aptitude!
In the few times she had interacted with Su Yu, Ji Ruoyan came to the conclusion that Su Yu met all of her criteria for choosing a partner.
Of course, his skills accounted for 90% of it.
After all, the strong were respected in the martial arts world. If one was handsome but did not have strength, they would still be considered useless! They might even become the furnace? of some evil female cultivators.
Therefore, Ji Ruoyan had to consider how to make Su Yu interested in her.
As a descendant of a large clan like the Ji clan, Ji Ruoyan was not a weak and delicate woman. She would attack when it was time. If she missed this opportunity, she would not have another chance.
While Ji Ruoyan was deep in thought, Su Yu had also finished flipping through the auction catalog in his hand. Then, he said to Ji Ruoyan, who was still fantasizing, “President Ji, I’ll be coming over tomorrow. I’ll take my leave today.”
After saying that, Su Yu casually placed the auction catalog on the table.
“Sir Su, it’s getting late. Why don’t you stay at the Myriad Commerce Association for the night? It will be more convenient for you to participate in the auction tomorrow.”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s sudden goodbye, Ji Ruoyan hurriedly urged him to stay.
“In addition, I’ve already informed the best restaurant in the Great Zhou Dynasty to prepare a banquet for you. Sir Su, please let me do my part as a host.”
No matter what, Ji Ruoyan had to make Su Yu stay. Otherwise, if Su Yu left and something came up tomorrow, wouldn’t she miss her chance?
Ji Ruoyan knew very well that after what had happened today, the elder would definitely send a message to inform the clan. When that happened, the pressure on her side would probably increase.
Upon hearing this, Su Yu pondered for a moment. In the end, he decided to stay at the Myriad Commerce Association for the night.
Regarding this, Su Yu expressed that it was definitely not because he wanted to try the culinary skills of the chef in the best restaurant in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
“Alright.” Looking at Ji Ruoyan, who was looking at him nervously, afraid that he would not agree, Su Yu nodded and agreed.
“Phew.” Upon hearing Su Yu’s agreement, Ji Ruoyan slowly heaved a sigh of relief.
“Sir Su, this way please.” Then, Ji Ruoyan stood up and began making arrangements.
Soon, Su Yu followed Ji Ruoyan and left the Myriad Commerce Association. They boarded an extremely luxurious carriage.
There were only Ji Ruoyan and Su Yu in the carriage. There was not even a maid. As for the coachman, he was none other than the Gold Rank Martial Grandmaster from before.
If it was more than half a month ago, Su Yu would have to expend some of the origin power of the Illusion God’s Eye to defeat this Gold Rank Martial Grandmaster.
Now, Su Yu felt that if he threw a punch, the other party would probably die.
The atmosphere in the carriage was a little strange. After all, a man and a woman were alone in the carriage. The atmosphere was either awkward or charming.
Su Yu did not even need to use his brain to guess what Ji Ruoyan was planning.
After all, she was being so obvious. Su Yu was not so clueless. How could he not guess her thoughts?
However, even though he had guessed it, Su Yu did not have any interest in Ji Ruoyan for the time being.
Ji Ruoyan was indeed devastatingly beautiful. If Su Yu was really an ordinary person, he would have long fallen to her feet.
Another point was that Ji Ruoyan was a descendant of an aristocratic family. If something had really happened between Su Yu and Ji Ruoyan, he wouldn’t want to use the Heart Lock to control his woman. That would be boring.
However, if he did not control his partner, his secrets might be exposed. Therefore, Su Yu would rather cultivate diligently alone.
In any case, with Ji Ruoyan’s current strategy, it was indeed a little difficult to bring down Su Yu’s fortress that was as thick as a city wall.
Looking at Su Yu, who closed his eyes to rest as soon as he got into the carriage, Ji Ruoyan felt that she had never met someone like Su Yu who did not know how to have fun.
It had to be known that when the other younger generation saw her appearance, they would basically stick to her like a plaster. They were not like Su Yu, who ignored her beautiful appearance!
