Meanwhile, news trickled in about the disturbances caused by the previous auction.

The Yu Family had given up bidding for the Xutian Lotus, while Kaiyang Palace, which had paid a hefty price for the Xutian Lotus, had been attacked several times by the Core Formation Realm elder and two Pseudo-Spiritual Realm masters. They had suffered quite a bit before they managed to return to Kaiyang Palace.

The patriarch of the Sword City Qin Family, who had auctioned off the top-tier magic artifact BaFang Thunder Cauldron, was alright, deciding to stay in the Inner Market to refine the Cauldron before leaving.

Despite being attacked, the Qin Family patriarch was ultimately able to counterattack with the BaFang Thunder Cauldron, killing some of the attackers.

There were rumors that a Pseudo-spiritual Realm master was among those killed by the Qin Family patriarch.

Su Yu didn’t pay much attention to the trials of the ancient immortal gate’s ruins. Yu Ke’er was physically and emotionally attached to him, so naturally, she wouldn’t go. As for Yu Qianqing, who had just broken through the Foundation Establishment Realm not long ago, she knew her limits. A gathering place filled with such geniuses was not suitable for her.

Half a month after the end of the auction, the hustle and bustle of the Great

Moon Black Market gradually subsided. Most of the geniuses set off for the Great Moon Palace intending to explore the ruins. The situation in the Inner and Outer Markets as well as in the various caves soon returned to normal.

After spending half a month on the Great Moon Mountain, the Taoist puppet quietly returned to the cave dwelling.

Su Yu began to nurture the puppet’s soul with his Golden Cicada technique to restore its power.

The Taoist puppet also continued to restore its own body.

In the following days, Su Yu focused on cultivation and continued to incorporate the Dual Attribute Foundation Establishment Technique of Earth and Wood. The Mother Cloud Tiger, who was with Yu Ke’er, had fully restored its vitality under Su Yu’s care and it seemed to have awakened some bloodline inheritance, enabling it to cultivate autonomously.

Its cultivation speed was said to be staggering, at least ten times faster than the cultivation speed of the Black Scale Eagle, Earth Fire Monkey, Double-Headed Blood Eagle, and Sky Green Python – four second-tier mid-grade beast tamers.

Apart from that, her two cubs also seemed to have extraordinary wisdom and bloodlines.

The three Cloud Tigers gradually grew under the care of Yu Ke’er.

Under the influence of the Cloud Tiger, a beast tamer of the Demon Clan, Yu Ke’er’s cultivation speed was also greatly boosted.

Yu Qianqing, Su Rui’an and the others were cultivating peacefully beside Su Yu, progressing steadily in their cultivation and alchemy methods. The Earth Fire Monkey, Black Scale Eagle, Double-headed Blood Eagle, and Sky

Green Python were often seen roaming around the cave dwelling.

However, they all dared not approach the family of three Cloud Tigers.

Over a year later, Su Yu broke through the twelfth level of the Crocodile Demon’s Body Refinement Technique, and Yu Ke’er advanced to the third level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

“Has any news come back from the Phoenix Palace ruins?” Su Yu came out of the secret room and asked his estate manager, Yu Linfeng.

Yu Linfeng had aged quite a bit since Su Yu had first arrived. His head was full of white hair, and he was in his nineties.

However, compared to ordinary mortals, Yu Linfeng, who was at the ninth stage of Cherishing Qi, was still very energetic. His body hadn’t shown signs of aging. He often led the other clansmen to the Ling Field, or went to the Little Ice Pond to catch Ice Scale Fish to prepare extra meals for Su Yu, Yu Ke’er, and the others.

Yu Linfeng knew what Su Yu was asking and respectfully shook his head, “No, the ruins are far away so it’s likely Miss Su Zhi and the others can’t send messages back.”

However, Yu Linfeng added, “But there are some rumors in the market, the ruins seem to have a stele that records the names of the geniuses who’ve entered. Once they die, the names will disappear.”

“And everyone’s experience in the ruins is different. There’s one chance to enter every three years.”

“Maybe, the geniuses will stay there for a short while.”

Su Yu knitted his brows a bit, then asked Yu Linfeng to visit Tianxudian. After spending a thousand low-grade Spirit Stones to purchase some intelligence, he finally got news that Su Zhi and Luo Qianyu were still alive. They were just still in the ruins and hadn’t come out.

This relieved Su Yu a little.

There was no longer any doubt about the authenticity of the Phoenix Palace ruins. Major influences like Kaiyang Palace, the Beast Taming Li Family, and others had sent their powerhouses to follow and inspect.

Even then, a bunch of ancient books with records about the Phoenix Palace, an ancient immortal gate force, started appearing in the Sky Library.

Su Yu had gone to investigate some of these claims. It was rumored that the emergence of Phoenix Fall Mansion might have a connection with the Phoenix Palace.

And the Phoenix Palace might be related to the ancient demon king, Celestial

Phoenix.

But who can tell if these ancient mysteries are true or false?

Su Yu once saw one ancient tome titled “The Origin of Phoenix Fall Mansion,” stating that the Phoenix Fall Mansion was so named because the Celestial

Phoenix, from where the Blood Phoenix Sect was based, had once fallen there.

Such a thing, Su Yu could hardly imagine.

The Ancient Demon King Celestial Phoenix—

He guessed it would at least be on the same level as an immortal beast, right? Could it have really fallen there?

That was far beyond his current reach.

“Oh yes, nephew, there is also a letter from Su Family here.” Yu Linfeng handed over a letter to Su Yu.

Su Yu opened it and found out it was a message from his Fifth Grandpa, Su Bin. The letter mentioned recent territory changes of the Yunjian Sect and the current conditions of their family.

The ancestor of Yunjian Sect has recently shown up, calming the restless Jiang and Huang Families.

Besides, there were also news about changes in the Bai Yue Immortal City.

Fairy Fengling had gone to the Phoenix Palace ruins, Elder Tianpu remained in the Golden Jade Fairy Gate’s ruins, and True Man Bai Yue has been missing for a while, whereabouts unknown.

The current Bai Yue Immortal City was almost fully controlled by Xu Wansheng and under his control, the True Palace was becoming increasingly dominant; intervening in marketplace transactions, which caused many factions and Loose Cultivators to choose to leave Bai Yue Immortal City.

However, this has had the biggest impact on the Spirit Palace’s income.

Due to its monopoly, the True Palace forced many nearby cultivation families and factions to cooperate and make purchases of pills, talismans, formations etc from them.

As a result, they were raking in profits.

Upon reading this, Su Yu found it staggering to the point of being absurd; stupefied, he said, “Is this— Is he True Man Bai Yue’s illegitimate son? Otherwise, how could he dare undermine the foundation of the Bai Yue Immortal City like that?”

This, this, this!

Are there really such talents in the world?

“Xu Wansheng.” Su Yu laughed wryly, remembering how this guy had cheated him out of his True Palace contribution value — something he had never forgotten.

Initially, he had planned to have Xu Wansheng repay him back a hundredfold or even a thousandfold in the future.

But now, he wondered whether Xu Wansheng would even live long enough for him to exact his revenge!

“There is never a shortage of fools in the world of cultivation, only that they usually do not live long.” Su Yu shook his head and dismissed the thought. If it were not for the protection of the Bai Yue Immortal City or being the third disciple of True Man Bai Yue, the head of Xu Wansheng would probably be long

gone.

So, he felt he needn’t expend effort— Xu Wansheng would probably find a way to off himself soon.

As for what would become of the Bai Yue Immortal City, that had nothing to do with him, Su Yu.

Whether it survived or fell, so what?

While lost in thought, Su Yu suddenly narrowed his eyes: “Fairy Fengling is away at the Phoenix Palace ruins, Elder Tianpu is always at the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins — are they doing this on purpose? They couldn’t possibly not know all this?”

“What’s up with True Man Bai Yue?”

Before Su Yu could thoroughly investigate this, guests arrived at his cave dwelling. They were Luo Qianyu and several of his junior sisters who Su Zhi had left at the great black-market of the moon.

Su Yu had met them as well..
