Chapter 1228: Tianyuan and Thirty-three
"So, Grandpa, you came when the world needed you, and now that they don’t, you’re just going to walk away in desolation?"
Su Linyuan chuckled and then retorted, "What else should I do? Create havoc and plunge the recently stabilized Xia Country back into turmoil? Or should I just overthrow the current regime?"
A barrage of questions left Su Chengyu somewhat dazed, but he soon clenched his fists tightly, "If it really was the Zhao Family wanting to discard us after we’ve outlived our usefulness, they should at least pay the rightful price!"
Su Linyuan listened to Su Chengyu’s response with a smile and said nothing. Su Chengyu blinked and asked, "Why? Grandpa, do you think I shouldn’t think like this?"
Su Linyuan shook his head and said softly, "Your father once asked me a similar question, and his answer was different from mine and from yours as well. The same situation can have different answers for different people, which is normal, but remember what you promised me before."
Su Chengyu frowned and pouted, "But Grandpa, you haven’t told me anything."
Su Linyuan gave him a look, "What else do you want to know? Isn’t one Yang Chengyin enough for you to handle? You’re already so bold with just a Nascent Soul, what if you really entered the Hollow Vacuum? Wouldn’t you be smashing Land Immortals with a flip of your hand?"
Facing Su Linyuan’s joking words, Su Chengyu’s gloomy mood finally eased a bit. He sighed deeply and said, "Grandpa, you’ve lived in seclusion in Lin Jiang for so many years. Doesn’t it really hurt?"
Su Linyuan’s gaze drifted into the distance, as if reminiscing about those times. After a while, he spoke softly.
"Occasionally there is some pain, after all, it was my own disciple who betrayed me. But more than feeling upset, what perplexes me most are their motives."
Su Chengyu began to understand, "With Grandpa’s temperament, anyone who just talked to you directly, you would leave the Capital City and the court, right?"
