Chapter 775: Ever Changing Spear
Situ Yu followed Situ Yao closely into his chambers. Situ Yao said nothing along the way, which made Situ Yu nervous. Even though he was satisfied with his own performance today, he wasn’t sure what the elders would think.
Situ Yao turned back and looked at him. Situ Yu saw a look of approval on his grandfather's face, so he became much relaxed. It appeared that Situ Yao was also satisfied.
“It’s a shame that we didn’t know that Suxue would follow him up there tonight. The Troop Destroying Arrow failed to kill Long Chen, resulting in his secret about possessing the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance becoming known to the public. Now it will be difficult for us to take it for ourselves …”
Situ Yu was also disappointed that the plan had failed. Even though he was smart enough to come up with that method to challenge Long Chen in one month, it would be difficult to take the Seven Star Lord’s inheritance for his grandfather.
“Grandfather, do you think the Patriarch will give me the inheritance once I win the fight? I don’t think any of the elders would want the other elders to monopolize it. Since I will be the son-in-law of the Patriarch, I don’t think anyone would complain about me having it, right?” Situ Yu asked.
“That is a good idea, but I think there are too many uncertainties. The Patriarch won’t allow you to kill him outright, but it seems that Long Chen is a rash individual, so you might actually have a chance to take him out. Your performance tonight was excellent and exceeded my expectations. Still, you need to be confident you can kill Long Chen too quickly for the Patriarch to save him.” Situ Yao’s eyes were glittering dangerously.
SItu Yu chuckled. “Don’t worry, Grandfather. I’ve touched the threshold of the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage recently. If you help me, I might be able to advance into the same realm as you in one month!”
Situ Yao sighed and admired his grandson. Reaching the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage at such a young age made him a top-tier genius. The Situ family could have someone at the Heavenly Martial Realm within ten years if he worked hard. It was even possible that Situ Yu would reach the Second Heavenly Martial Stage like the Patriarch.
“Are you sure that you can reach the Ninth Earthly Martial Stage within a month?” Situ Yao asked happily.
