The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1386 - 1385: Able to Cultivate Now
Previously on The City’s Strongest Son-in-law...
"I feel the same. If there’s any chance I can help Mr. Su in the future, I hope he will let me know. I, Ren Xuetao, will definitely do my best," Ren Xuetao quickly said.
"Thank you very much." With those words, Su Changfeng strode toward the city gate. Shen Mao and the others were worthless in his eyes now, so he naturally had no need to waste time on them.
Watching Su Changfeng and his group gradually fade into the distance, Shen Mao let out a long sigh. He wanted to maintain their relationship, but he couldn’t really help Su Changfeng with anything. Even if he wanted to, he had nothing substantial to offer.
Ren Xuetao patted Shen Mao’s shoulder and comforted him, "He’s such an expert, it’s normal for him not to look up to us. If even he can’t accomplish something, how could we possibly be of help?"
"Right!" Suddenly, Ren Xuetao seemed to think of something and asked, "Did he not say previously that he wanted to heal you?"
Shen Mao’s smile was a bit bitter. He was initially intending to remind Su Changfeng, but ultimately gave up. Hearing this, he could only sigh and say, "Let’s forget it. He’s already helped us, how could I have the nerve to ask him for more? Besides, why would he help me anyway?"
Upon hearing this, Ren Xuetao didn’t know what to say. He naturally understood how disappointed his friend felt; after all, Shen Mao was once full of anticipation.
But as Shen Mao said, someone like Su Changfeng wouldn’t bother about such trivial matters. What standing do they have to remind him?
Suddenly, Shen Mao’s expression changed dramatically.
"What’s wrong?" Ren Xuetao noticed the change and asked with a puzzled look.
Shen Mao didn’t speak, but suddenly knelt down in the direction where Su Changfeng departed and seriously kowtowed several times.
"Shen Mao, what do you mean by this? He’s already gone, does kneeling now have any meaning?" Ren Xuetao’s heart was touched seeing his friend’s demeanor.
"I... I feel a force stirring inside me; it seems... it seems I can cultivate now." Shen Mao said excitedly.
"What!" Ren Xuetao exclaimed in shock. Could it be that Su Changfeng had healed Shen Mao’s body without their noticing?
"Mr. Su, from now on, my life is yours. Whether you need me or not, Shen Mao will await your orders. The younger generation of the Shen Family will forever remember your immense kindness." Shen Mao’s eyes were fixed on the direction Su Changfeng left, unknowingly full of tears.
Meanwhile, Wang Junyi frowned at Su Changfeng and asked, "Master, why did you help him?"
"Since I’ve promised him, I must fulfill it. If I can’t even fulfill my own promises, what kind of man am I?" Su Changfeng replied.
Wang Junyi nodded, somewhat understanding.
"Brother Changfeng, You Meng seems to be missing," Chen Qingqing suddenly remarked.
Su Changfeng chuckled; that woman was always elusive, but he believes she will appear again.
"It’s fine, she will catch up sooner or later," Su Changfeng waved off indifferently.
Chen Qingqing knew that Su Changfeng was always wary of You Meng, so she didn’t quite understand Su Changfeng’s actions. Knowing the other party had ulterior motives, yet he didn’t take action to eliminate her and kept her around, she simply couldn’t figure it out.
"Su Changfeng, why don’t you kill her?" Chen Qingqing asked.
"If I just kill her like that, I might never find out her secrets. I’m really curious about what she’s up to; if I don’t figure it out, I’ll feel uneasy," Su Changfeng smiled.
Qiutang Yu’er listened to him and pouted, "If you just kill her, no matter what her goal is, it’s doomed unachievable. In that case, the goal has no meaning."
To Qiutang Yu’er, You Meng is her rival in love. Naturally, she hopes Su Changfeng will kill You Meng, but since he doesn’t, she has no choice.
Qiutang Yuer’s straightforwardness made Su Changfeng feel familiar, much like Yue Qingshan’s bold and direct expression of love in the past, never hiding her emotions from him.
However, Qiutang Yu’er approached Su Changfeng with an agenda, while Yue Qingshan genuinely liked him, and in Su Changfeng’s mind, Yue Qingshan’s place cannot be compared to Qiutang Yu’er.
If there’s one woman Su Changfeng might have wronged in his life, it’s likely Yue Qingshan. Only when facing her does he feel a sense of guilt.
"If you want to dream, no one can stop you," Su Changfeng said indifferently.
Qiutang Yu’er stomped her foot, seeing Su Changfeng as not being a normal man, with a beauty like her pursuing him and yet he’s so nonchalant, lacking any thought of cherishing beautiful women.
However, if Qiutang Yu’er knew how Yue Qingshan had once pursued Su Changfeng, and how he rejected her, she might feel even more despair.
Fengming City.
When Situ Feng knew Su Changfeng was coming to Fengming City, he immediately arranged the grandest welcome ceremony for him.
Thanks to Zhou Hongyun’s help, Situ Feng’s return to the family went smoothly, and the Situ Family is now completely in his hands, fulfilling his long-held wish of becoming the Family Head of the Situ Family.
"Why do you think he’s suddenly coming here?" Situ Feng asked Zhou Hongyun.
Zhou Hongyun spoke calmly, "This is not a matter we should discuss. You should understand that I am now his servant, and no matter what you say, I will report everything faithfully to him."
Zhou Hongyun can only be loyal to Su Changfeng, as his life and death rest with Su Changfeng’s decisions, and Su Changfeng has even given him the priceless Fate Fruit, so naturally, he has no reason to betray Su Changfeng.
As the Ninth Rank Expert closest to a Primordial Master within Xingluo Territory, after possessing the Fate Fruit, Zhou Hongyun is closer to a Primordial Master. The help Su Changfeng offered isn’t something that can be described with words, so no matter what Su Changfeng asks him to do, he wouldn’t refuse.
"You’re loyal to him, and so am I. Do you think I dare to betray him?" Situ Feng said with a smile, even though now he was the Family Head, he clearly knew his limits.
In the Tianyuan Continent, he could betray the Emperor, but he would never betray Su Changfeng; otherwise, his fate would only be death.
"I naturally believe you will make the right choice," Zhou Hongyun said.
