Su Qian——
When Ye Chen heard this name, he was still full of doubts, feeling that the world had suddenly become magical...
If it's not a coincidence of names, then this Su Qian should be the chief elder of the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy, right?
But how could he appear in Danyu, come to Yecheng, and have a relationship with his grandfather?
If this is true, then why didn't my grandfather let me visit my old friends when I went to the northwest continent?
Could it be that the relationship between the two is not as strong as imagined?
this...
Just when Ye Chen was puzzled, Ye Zhong's words once again confirmed his guess. The old man in front of him was exactly the Su Qian he had imagined!
"Haven't you just returned from the Northwest Continent? You should have heard of the name of Canaan College, right? Brother Su is the Grand Elder of the Inner Court of Canaan College!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen immediately looked enlightened and said, "So Grandpa Su is the Grand Elder of Canaan College! I'm aware of Canaan College's reputation as the continent's premier college. Speaking of which, I also passed through the Black Horn Region on my return to Zhongzhou this time, but I didn't have the chance to witness the fame of the continent's premier college."
After hearing Ye Chen's words, Su Qian's originally stiff expression softened and he smiled, "Haha, if you have the chance, you can come to the academy. With your talent, you can show those ignorant brats what a true genius is!"
After a brief greeting, Su Qian tactfully said goodbye and left. He knew very well that the Ye family's grandparents must have a lot to say, and it would be inappropriate for an outsider like him to disturb them.
After Su Qian left the study, Ye Chen couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Grandpa, how did you get to know this Grandpa Su?"
Upon hearing this question, Ye Zhong stroked his beard slightly and said with some emotion, "Speaking of this, it is somewhat related to what has happened in the Ye family recently..."
It turned out that not long after Ye Chen left Zhongzhou for the Northwest Continent, Ye Chong, who had been unable to find a solution to the Yanghuo Ancient Altar, wanted to go out and look for some ancient ruins to see if he could find the key to solving the problem.
This can be considered as a desperate attempt to seek medical treatment...
During an expedition to the ruins, he met Su Qian who was traveling in Zhongzhou. The two hit it off immediately and started traveling together.
"Although Su Qian's cultivation is far inferior to mine, he does have many tricks up his sleeve. If it weren't for his help along the way, even I would have been in danger many times!" Ye Zhong reminded emphatically.
This is actually quite understandable...
Although Su Qian is only a one-star Dou Zong at this time, Canaan Academy was founded by Mang Tianchi, who was at the peak Dou Zun level. It has a long history and its foundation is not comparable to that of the Ye family.
Otherwise, how could they have the title of the number one academy on the continent?
As the Grand Elder of this generation of Canaan Academy, Su Qian is also the top leader of the inner courtyard, so his methods are naturally extraordinary...
Not only that, his luck was also pretty good. He actually met the little girl Zi Yan in the wild mountains and brought her back to the inner courtyard to adopt. This alone would make it so that no one would dare to mess with Su Qian in the future!
After all, she's the Dragon Emperor's daughter! And in the original novel, she's one of Xiao Yan's mentors, providing him with immense assistance. And in this life, with Ye Chen, the undisputed protagonist of Dou Qi Continent, he's also a close friend of Ye Chen's grandfather, Ye Chong...
How should I put it? It feels like this is the person that is truly chosen by destiny, right?
"Then why did the family come into conflict with the people of the Black Fire Sect?" This was also what Ye Chen was puzzled about. Could it be a hidden danger left behind when he was in Qingyue City?
Ye Zhong continued, "This is still related to my trip."
"Su Qian and I stumbled upon an ancient ruin and accidentally triggered its restrictions, causing it to collapse. Although we managed to escape safely, the noise we made alerted the nearby Black Fire Sect, who then hunted us down..."
Ye Chen suddenly realized that there was actually such a joint...
But in an instant, his expression darkened, and he said in a cold voice, "How dare the Black Fire Sect hunt you, Grandpa? Aren't they afraid of Danta's wrath?"
The five major families in Danyu are the ones who can do whatever they want in Danyu!
Before the Ye family completely lost its power, the Black Fire Sect, a mere sect, actually dared to blatantly hunt down the leader of the Ye family. They were simply courting death!
Ye Chen laughed and said, "If my identity is exposed, they will naturally not dare to do that..."
"However, they have been chasing us for so long. How can I let them go so easily without making them pay a price..."
Holy shit! Is this the truth?
"Humph! After killing the Black Fire Sect elder who was chasing us, I sent a message to the Black Fire Sect in the name of the Ye family, saying that it was I, Ye Zhong, who killed him, and told them to come and seek revenge if they had the guts!"
"It's just a pity that the Black Fire Sect's leader was so forgiving. He actually said that Zhao Tuo came to the Ye family because of a personal grudge, and that he deserved to be killed. The Black Fire Sect is not prepared to conflict with the Ye family over this person..."
Speaking of this, Ye Zhong still looked a little regretful.
"Originally, I had already prepared to make an example of someone and even sent invitations to several of Danta's friends.
If the Black Fire Sect really dares to come forward, we will all issue a statement condemning the Black Fire Sect. Hehe, that will be enough to give the Black Fire Sect leader a hard time..."
Ye Chen looked at his grandfather with a murderous look on his face, and was speechless.
So this is what you were thinking about!
However, if Grandpa's plan really succeeds, then the Black Fire Sect will have to face the condemnation of several seventh-grade alchemists, and they are seventh-grade alchemists affiliated with Danta. I guess by then the Black Fire Sect will really be in big trouble!
Even if the Black Fire Sect's leader truly possessed peak Dou Zong strength, facing the combined might of numerous seventh-grade alchemists, the best outcome would be for him to personally apologize and settle the matter with money...
"Oh right..." As if remembering something, Ye Zhong looked at Ye Chen again and said, "Zhao Tuo's strength is quite strong. We were able to kill him this time thanks to the righteous help of Lin Qingyue, the Lord of Qingyue City."
"Lin Qingyue?" Hearing this name, Ye Chen's mind suddenly flashed with an enchanting woman in a cool dress.
"So it's her. That woman's cultivation is one star stronger than yours, Grandpa. Moreover, we originally agreed that if anyone in the Ye family is in trouble, she must help. However, this favor must be remembered by my Ye family."
