Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 592: Little Cat, You... Can Actually Talk?

"What? Has the Zhao Family’s party already occupied the Spirit Stone Mine? Weren’t there still two days left? Dammit, these treacherous bastards!"

Upon hearing the report from the young man in black, Su Mountain’s complexion changed drastically. His face twisted with anger, his heart brimming with fury.

"Father, this Zhao Family is utterly shameless!" Su Jinx’s little face turned bright red, and she angrily condemned them in shared discontent.

With a deep sigh, Su Mountain lamented, "The Zhao Family has far too many Life-Death Realm Powerhouses. Even if our Su family goes now, we would not be their match, only bringing disgrace upon ourselves." He then lowered his head, despondently saying, "There’s an old saying that losing wealth dispels disaster. It seems we can only resign ourselves to relinquish this Spirit Stone Mine to the Zhao Family..."

"Chief Su, perhaps you’ve forgotten about me?" Ye Yun said with a light laugh.

"Sir, we have troubled you enough. It’s truly embarrassing. The Zhao Family now boasts a strong army with numerous Life-Death Realm Powerhouses. We really don’t want to drag you into this," Su Mountain said with a deep sigh, expressing his heartfelt distress.

Looking at Ye Yun, Su Jinx said earnestly, "Brother, what my father said makes sense. Losing a Spirit Stone Mine, though regrettable, is insignificant if it can ensure the safety of the Su family!"

"Chief Su, you’ve already killed a Life-Death Realm Powerhouse from the Zhao Family. Do you think they will let you off lightly? Take me to the Spirit Stone Mine. I will shoulder this burden for the Su family," Ye Yun said with his hands behind his back, a faint smile on his face.

"I..." Hearing these words, Su Mountain was so touched that he didn’t know what to say.

"Brother, thank you so much!" Su Jinx said, holding back her tears.

"Don’t mention it. After all, we are all interconnected in some way..." Ye Yun replied with a laugh.

It seemed as though Su Mountain had caught on to something. He hurriedly said, "My daughter has always lived a sheltered life. If you don’t mind, perhaps..."

Before Su Mountain could finish his sentence, the color drained from Ye Yun’s face. He coughed awkwardly, saying, "Chief Su, let’s stop this talk right here! Su Jinx and I are just friends."

Su Jinx was equally flustered and speechless. She hadn’t expected her father to propose her marriage to the young man in white so straightforwardly.

"I... I spoke out of turn..." Su Mountain was at a loss and quickly apologized, his face a light shade of red.

Ye Yun gave a resigned smile.

Su Jinx lifted her head, quickly shifting the conversation, "Father, we should hurry to the Spirit Stone Mine!"

"Alright!" Su Mountain regained his composure, turned, and transmitted a message, instantly summoning a man at the Second Level of the Life and Death Realm.

This man was one of the Su family’s retainers. For their journey to the Spirit Stone Mining Area, Su Mountain naturally needed to bring some people. Less experienced fighters, though, need not come. After all, the outcome between the Su and Zhao families depended on the confrontation between the Life-Death Realm Powerhouses.

"Chief Su, I heard that the Spirit Stone Mine was occupied by the Zhao Family. I don’t think we can defeat them if we go..." the man clasped his fists, a strange expression on his face as he said anxiously.

Ye Yun was taken aback.

Embarrassed and caught off guard by his retainer’s words in front of Ye Yun, Su Mountain was at a loss for how to respond. His face darkened as he said coldly, "Wu Chengxian, you are a retainer of our Su family. Do you really intend to desert when the situation becomes critical?"

"When catastrophe strikes, it’s every man for himself! I quit being the Su family’s retainer!" With a wave of his sleeve, Wu Chengxian soared into the sky and vanished.

"You ungrateful wretch!" Su Mountain was so angry that his whole body trembled.

The Su family faced a massive calamity, yet there was no one within the clan qualified enough to take on the responsibility. Instead, it was a stranger, a friend of his daughter, who was enthusiastically helping the Su family.

"Get back here!" Ye Yun abruptly reached out. Wu Chengxian grunted and immediately fell from mid-air.

"You’ve gained so much from the Su family, and now you’re just going to leave? How can people like you exist in this world?" Ye Yun walked up with a gloomy face, reached out his hand, and smacked Wu Chengxian’s face with a loud slap.

Half of Wu Chengxian’s face immediately swelled, a bright red handprint clearly visible.

"Who are you, really?" Wu Chengxian looked at Ye Yun in horror, disbelief showing in his eyes.

Wu Chengxian’s heart was filled with waves of shock and disbelief.

"Chief Su, why keep this person around? Just kill him," Ye Yun said to Su Mountain with a faint smile.

Su Mountain stomped over with an angry face and sneered, "Indeed, there’s no use in keeping such a despicable man!"

Saying this, he lifted his palm and thrust it down with force.

BANG!

A loud, startling noise echoed. Wu Chengxian, a powerhouse at the Second Level of the Life and Death Realm, was transformed into a mist of blood by Su Mountain’s single palm strike.

After killing Wu Chengxian, Su Mountain seemed to have aged considerably. The wrinkles on his face deepened as he sighed, saying, "Young Master, I’m ashamed that there are so many traitors in my Su family!"

"Let’s go!" Ye Yun said indifferently.

"Young Master, please follow me!" Su Mountain took flight and veered towards the southwest.

Ye Yun and Su Jinx followed closely behind.

The Spirit Stone Mining Area in that body of water wasn’t too far from the Su family’s island, so it wouldn’t take long to fly there.

As Su Mountain flew, he couldn’t help but think to himself,

Once this idea arose in his mind, Su Mountain immediately sent a message to Su Jinx. He asked her to persuade Ye Yun not to go, since the Zhao Family was too numerous and powerful. Taking them on recklessly and risking his life would be a loss not worth the gain.

Su Jinx understood. She gently stroked the blue Little Cat’s head and said softly to Ye Yun, "Brother, including the Clan Leader of Zhao Family, Zhao Jiugong, the Zhao Family probably has about five Life-Death Realm Powerhouses. Moreover, the Zhao Family Ancestor is a powerhouse at the Fourth Level of the Life and Death Realm..."

"Little girl, are you worried that my Master cannot defeat the Zhao family? Hmph! Ridiculous!" it said angrily.

"Little Cat... you... can actually talk!?" Su Jinx looked at the blue Little Cat in her arms with a surprised expression, stuttering as she spoke.

"I, that... I can’t..."

Ye Yun shook his head, an embarrassed look on his face.

"Brother, has this cat concealed its cultivation base?" Su Jinx lifted her head, looking at Ye Yun with a shocked expression.
