Chapter 1317: Fusion of Dragon Vein
"Very well, borrowing the name of the Heaven Punishment Department to restore the honor of the Su family—you, young man, played a good game."
Su Chengyu did not shy away and said, "Isn’t this what you wished to see, Teacher?"
Qiu Tianlin glanced at Su Chengyu and said, "When I used to select candidates in the Heaven Punishment Department, apart from skepticism, there was another very important trait required, that of being unsentimental. If it were in the past, I wouldn’t have chosen you."
"Then why now, Teacher..."
"Because those who were unsentimental have died; all those Heavenly Punishment Secret Envoys have died. And I, too, am a dying man; reality has proven me wrong. So, let me see if you, the grandson of Su Linyuan, can give me a different answer."
"I will not disappoint you, Teacher."
Su Chengyu affirmed.
Qiu Tianlin nodded again, becoming more satisfied with Su Chengyu the more he looked at him.
It was unclear whether Su Chengyu was too outstanding or if he had been too long without company that seeing a communicative junior brought a sense of closeness.
After casually inquiring about some affairs related to Su Chengyu and the outside world, Qiu Tianlin was moved but didn’t speak much.
Then turning his head, he said, "So, what do you want me to do now?"
