“Sir, is there a problem with that person?”
Seeing that Su Yu seemed to be very interested in Xiao Chen, Ji Ruoyan could not help but ask softly.
Ji Ruoyan had also heard of Xiao Chen. After all, he was considered very famous in the Great Zhou Dynasty. It was normal for Ji Ruoyan to have heard of him.
However, although Xiao Chen’s talent was considered alright, Ji Ruoyan thought that it was far from comparable to a monstrous existence like Su Yu.
Su Yu glanced at Ji Ruoyan and Ji Yue with a strange expression.
Why did the current situation seem to be getting more and more familiar? Picking up treasures at an auction and obtaining the help of the upper class family behind the auction. Then, marry a fair, rich, and beautiful woman to reach the peak of life.
To be honest, if not for Su Yu’s existence, according to the development, Xiao Chen might really have been the chosen one supported by the Ji Clan.
After all, the Ji Clan had always liked to invest in geniuses. If Xiao Chen obtained the Bronze Key and obtained the inheritance of a Titled Martial King, his strength would definitely increase by leaps and bounds. He would then attract the Ji Clan’s focus and attention.
“It’s nothing. I just feel that his luck is pretty good.” Seeing that Ji Ruoyan and Ji Yue were staring at him, Su Yu waved his hand and changed the topic.
‘Do you think you’re lying to a child?1 Upon hearing Su Yu’s perfunctory tone, Ji Ruoyan’s eyelids could not help but twitch.
“Alright, since the auction is over, it’s time for me to go back and cultivate.” Seeing the expression on Ji Ruoyan’s face, Su Yu prepared to slip away.
Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyan could not say anything. After all, Su Yu had already said that he wanted to go back to cultivate. She could not stop him!
“Then I’ll send you off, Sir.” Ji Ruoyan did not continue asking, and instead said softly to Su Yu.
Su Yu did not turn down Ji Ruoyan’s good intentions.
Ji Ruoyan sent Su Yu out of the Myriad Commerce Association and watched his figure disappear on the street. Then she returned to her courtyard.
Next, Ji Ruoyan instructed the guard Martial Grandmaster behind her in a deep voice, “Get someone to send all the information about the Xiao family in the Great Zhou Dynasty over. Also, investigate Xiao Chen and Xiao Feng carefully.” It had to be said that the strange expression on Su Yu’s face had really piqued Ji Ruoyan’s curiosity.
Since she could not obtain any useful information from Su Yu, Ji Ruoyan planned to investigate Xiao Chen herself.
At this moment, Xiao Chen, who had become the center of attention because of the incident at the auction house, had already returned to the Xiao Residence.
“Elder Hai, that Bronze Key has already fallen into the hands of the person in Sky VIP Room Number 1. What should we do next?”
Xiao Chen locked himself in his room and spoke in a low voice.
“Don’t be anxious. Although the other party has obtained the key, they probably don’t know the exact location of the secret treasure. We still have a chance.”
Elder Hai replied to the question in a deep voice.
Xiao Chen clearly did not know that at this moment, there were already some uninvited guests quickly approaching the Xiao Residence.
Among them, Su Yu had concealed his figure and was rapidly approaching the Xiao Residence. There was a glint of curiosity in his eyes.
Xiao Chen had aroused Su Yu’s curiosity. Usually, an ordinary General Level figure would not attract his attention.
Meanwhile, the Myriad Commerce Association also launched its huge network of connections and began to investigate everything related to Xiao Chen since he was born.
“Elder Hai, I should have attracted the attention of that existence in Sky VIP Room Number 1 at the Myriad Commerce Association just now. How should I avoid him next?”
Xiao Chen had gradually calmed down due to Elder Hai’s reassurance. He then raised another fatal question.
“Don’t go out for the time being. An existence who can sit in the Sky VIP Room Number 1 of the Myriad Commerce Association probably won’t make things difficult for a junior like you.”
“As for the others, with your father’s prestige in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they probably won’t dare to attack you.”
After pondering for a moment, Elder Hai finally spoke.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded slightly.
However, what Xiao Chen and Elder Hai didn’t know was that the big shot in Sky VIP Room Number 1 had already reached the Xiao Residence.
After casually searching the memories of the servants in the Xiao Residence, Su Yu obtained the location where Xiao Chen lived.
Then, after using concealment on himself, Su Yu quickly appeared near Xiao Chen’s courtyard.
‘As expected, there’s an old grandpa.’ Looking at the information revealed by the heavenly mystery array, a strange look flashed across Su Yu’s eyes.
If Elder Hai was at his peak, he would be able to avoid the detection of the current heavenly mystery array. However, he was only left with a wisp of his soul remnant. Furthermore, he was communicating with Xiao Chen through his soul power. The heavenly mystery array directly revealed his true form.
‘A Martial Lord Realm expert is coming. Could it be Xiao Chen’s father, Xiao Feng? At this moment, Su Yu suddenly realized that there was a small purple light dot on the heavenly mystery array. It was quickly approaching Xiao Chen’s courtyard.
‘Lets take a look first.’After this thought flashed through his mind, Su Yu directly used a series of concealment skills on his body and then used the power of Ghost Ship and the Illusion God’s Eye.
“Chen’er.” Just as Su Yu hid, a figure pushed open the courtyard door of Xiao Chen’s courtyard and shouted in a deep voice.
“Father, why are you here?” Xiao Chen could not help but be stunned when he heard his father’s voice.
However, after coming back to his senses, Xiao Chen pushed open the door and walked out.
At this moment, Su Yu finally gained insight into the stats of these two people.
f Human]
Name: Xiao Feng
Level: Mid-stage Purple Gold Rank Martial Lord.
Intent realm: Power of The Gold Intent Realm – Small Accomplishment.
[Half-human, Half-Demon]
Name: Xiao Chen
Level: Early-stage Silver Rank General
Internal power: Water internal power.
Bloodline: A portion of the royal merman bloodline.
“Ah, turns out it’s like this.” After seeing Xiao Feng and Xiao Chen’s information, Su Yu felt a little numb.
There was nothing wrong with Xiao Feng’s information. He was a proper human. However, Xiao Chen was different. He was actually a hybrid of human and demon.
‘In that case, Xiao Chen’s mother should be someone from the merman royal family. Could the Bronze Key be the key to a ruin near the mermaid royal family?
At this moment, a thought popped up in Su Yu’s mind.
Combining all the information, there shouldn’t be any problems with Su Yu’s deduction.
First of all, one needed to use the blood essence of the descendant of the Titled Sea Creatures King to obtain the information hidden inside the Bronze Key. Xiao Chen had also wanted to obtain this Bronze Key.
From the looks of it, Xiao Chen definitely knew that he was not completely human, but a hybrid of human and demon.
Based on these clues, Su Yu had reasons to suspect that the ruin detected by the heavenly mystery array was a secret treasure left behind by a Titled King of the merman race.
Then, Xiao Chen’s mother should be the direct descendant of that titled Martial King.
As for the old man in this guy’s ring, he was most likely related to the Titled King of the merman race.
However, Su Yu was still unable to directly gain insight into their exact relationship as the old fellow was hidden inside the ring.
“Chen’er, there are some things I plan to tell you today.” Just as Su Yu was thinking quietly, Xiao Feng – who was standing in the courtyard and saw that Xiao Chen had already pushed open the door and come out – said solemnly.
“Father, if you have something to say, just say it!” Seeing his father’s expression, Xiao Chen had a feeling that the old man was going to tell him about his mother.
“Actually, your mother isn’t dead. She’s still alive.” Xiao Feng, who had made up his mind, didn’t waste any time and said.
However, what surprised Xiao Feng was that his son did not look very surprised, as if he had already known about this.
“Chen’er, could it be that you already knew that your mother isn’t dead?” Xiao Feng asked with a serious expression..
