Chapter 690_1
"Grand Minister, I think this Su Cheng is just overconfident because of your support and due to himself being a cultivator. An open duel with the Grand Airspace Officer Yin is nothing short of suicide," said He Lian Xuan’s trusted subordinate.
He Lian Xuan contemplated for a moment and said, "From what I have observed, Su Cheng does not seem to be an impulsive and brainless person. On the contrary, I think he is steadfast, mature and intelligent."
"But he is still young, isn’t he? Now he has your support, and his reputation is widespread, to the point where some believe he has the potential to replace Lee Longqing and become the foremost figure in the east. Facing such accolades, wouldn’t it naturally result in some arrogance on his part?"
He Lian Xuan gently tapped his fingers on the desk, saying, "I’m aware of this situation. You can go."
Shen Zhuoyan and Wang Congyun also heard the news and applauded enthusiastically. They both harbored deep hatred for Su Chengyu- the former attributed the death of his son to Su Chengyu and was powerless to retaliate while Wang Congyun was still resentful about Su Chengyu claiming all the treasures in the Liyuan Cave Heaven, leaving him with nothing t for his efforts.
Both of them would like nothing more than to see Su Chengyu meet an early demise. They eagerly awaited the outcome of the Dragon Soul conference.
Upon returning to the courtyard, Qin Muge urgently asked Su Chengyu why he had rashly challenged Yin Huan to a duel—a duel to the death was not a game; it meant that only one of either Su Chengyu or Yin Huan could survive.
Su Chengyu did not answer, only mentioning that he was about to retreat and did not want to be disturbed.
"Dad, why is Brother Su Cheng so impulsive today? Yin Huan is a Martial King, surely Brother Su Cheng can’t beat him?"
