Chapter 373: Chapter 252: Seeking Wealth and Honor in Danger! Enter the Forbidden Zone!
Atop Sword God Mountain.
Su Changqing pondered for a long time, then shook his head and smiled.
Though he knows some truths now, changing anything is still too difficult.
To break through this, at the very least he needs to become one of the chess players.
But with his current strength, he’s probably not even a pawn.
"It’s time to go, the Divination Platform is about to open."
Glancing at the flourishing Sword God Mountain, Su Changqing chuckled softly.
In half a month, the Divination Platform will open.
Breaking through the Divine Appearance Realm to help the Sacred Academy seize a Divination Platform is a major task that cannot be delayed.
But before that, he needs to make a trip to the Celestial Pill Pavilion.
Pill Saint has been kind to him, and the matter of Jun Yu and the Pill King falling into darkness requires him to visit in both emotion and reason.
Moreover...
"It’s rumored that the second half of the Celestial Doctor’s legendary scroll is in the Celestial Pill Pavilion, though its truth is uncertain."
"This visit could at least help me find out indirectly..."
With the upcoming tasks sorted out one by one, Su Changqing no longer delayed, and called over Brother Er Niu through sound transmission.
Before long, Brother Er Niu hurried to the mountaintop, busy with his feet barely touching the ground.
"Su Sword God, have you finally finished your seclusion?"
Exhausted, Brother Er Niu complained as soon as he arrived,
"One wouldn’t know and think I’m the Sect Leader of Sword Emperor Sect."
"Goodness, I even had to compile sect rules, ironclad regulations."
"You are completely unconcerned about me overthrowing you, huh."
Su Changqing, knowing he was at fault, awkwardly touched his nose and poured Brother Er Niu a cup of Spirit Tea.
"With Brother Er Niu watching over, what do I have to worry about?"
"Not only overthrowing you, if you wish to sit as Sect Leader, I’ll gladly let you."
From the beginning of establishing Sword Emperor Sect, Su Changqing cared not for fame.
But for the inheritance.
As long as Sword Emperor Sect can continue, he doesn’t mind whether the Sect Leader is himself or not.
"You’re quite generous, just giving away this world’s number one Sword Dao sect?"
Brother Er Niu laughed angrily at this, "Spit it out already, help me fix the sect so I can go find Ling Si."
"She’s under a lot of pressure, though I can’t help much, I can at least keep her company."
This is just for Chang Qing, with anyone else, Brother Er Niu would have quit long ago.
"Brother Er Niu, how about you take the position of Sect Leader for Sword Emperor Sect?"
Su Changqing said after some contemplation.
"Me?"
Brother Er Niu’s eyes widened, "You’re insane, this is the world’s number one Sword Dao sect."
"Its potential development isn’t inferior to the Domain Master Su’s family."
"You’re really going to just let it go?"
Initially, Brother Er Niu thought Changqing was joking, but he didn’t expect the other party to be serious.
"I’m afraid I don’t have time to waste on this."
Su Changqing sighed, "Divination Platform, Imperial Tomb, Central Plains Sacred Academy..."
"These numerous tasks, big and small, are waiting for me."
"Sword Emperor Sect’s establishment needs people, I can’t stay here forever."
Upon saying this, Su Changqing flipped his palm, revealing a dazzling miniature purple gold Sword Seal in his hand.
"Refine this Sword Seal to wield the Imperial Sword of inheritance."
"The Imperial Sword contains the vast Sword Intent of Sword God Mountain and my complete Sword Dao Emperor Intent."
"With this sword, even at the peak of Quasi-Emperor, Sword God Mountain can still contend."
Brother Er Niu is not Su Changqing, so if he were to lead the sect, his strength across the four realms is indeed a bit weak.
However, if he can wield the Imperial Sword of inheritance, then within Sword God Mountain’s territory, Brother Er Niu will have nothing to fear.
"This..."
Brother Er Niu looked anxious, trying to say something.
"Just consider it helping me!" Su Changqing interrupted softly, his face solemn.
Brother Er Niu was momentarily speechless.
He never dreamt that such a huge jackpot would fall on him.
The Sect Leader of the world’s number one sect!
This status would even make his father salute him in the future!
But after contemplating for a while, Brother Er Niu shook his head, "I cannot take the position of Sect Leader of Sword Emperor Sect."
Before Su Changqing could speak, Brother Er Niu accepted the inheritance purple gold Sword Seal, almost symbolic of the Sect Leader position.
He weighed the Sword Seal in hand, grinning, "But as Vice Sect Leader, doing some odd jobs for you, I can manage."
Su Changqing was stunned, then patted Brother Er Niu’s shoulder, laughing out loud.
The position of Sect Leader of Sword Emperor Sect, it makes no difference whether it’s he or Brother Er Niu who holds it.
The brotherly bond between them cannot be measured by such a trivial position.
"Nowadays, cultivators all over the world are searching for you. Be extremely cautious when you go out."
Knowing Su Changqing was leaving, Brother Er Niu advised solemnly.
Su Changqing smiled without replying, his fingertips forming seals, with spiritual power surging around him.
In an instant, as the spiritual power dissipated, a stranger resembling a youthful and scholarly lad appeared on the spot.
"This is..." Brother Er Niu was stunned by the sight.
He was extremely familiar with Changqing, but even so, he couldn’t connect the person before him with Changqing.
"Celestial Spirit Transformation Skill."
Su Changqing raised his sleeves and smiled with satisfaction, "This technique left by my elder brother is quite extraordinary."
"It can change appearance and features, even altering bones, flesh, and meridians as one wishes."
As he spoke, he looked at Brother Er Niu and smiled:
"With this skill and a concealing array masking my aura and fate."
"As long as I don’t reveal myself, even the peak of Quasi-Emperor can’t find me."
Brother Er Niu clicked his tongue in amazement, his worries immediately alleviated.
Celestial Spirit Transformation, coupled with a concealing array, indeed forms an unbeatable combination.
"Should we inform Li Jin and others?"
Noticing Su Changqing’s resolve to leave, Brother Er Niu asked.
"No, let them all think I’m still in seclusion on Sword God Mountain."
Su Changqing smiled, wearing the unfamiliar scholar’s guise, descended the mountain slowly,
"I’m off, take care Brother Er Niu."
