“Let’s go and check it out first.”

After leaving the cave dwelling on Sun and Moon Island, Su Yu returned to the palace on top of the Pill Mountain.

Just as he left, Su Yu heard of both a piece of good news and a piece of bad news.

The bad news was that Elder Su Zhen had reached the end of his lifespan and had passed away three months ago. The family had already held a funeral for him, providing a grand burial at the family cemetery.

Because he was in seclusion, the family didn’t disturb him with this news.

Thus, Su Yu could only go to the cemetery to offer sacrifices for Su Zhen, sighing a lament, “Alas.”

Another elder has passed away.

Looking around at the whole cemetery, since the Su Family moved to the Pill Mountain decades ago, hundreds or even thousands of clan members were buried here, including cultivators and ordinary clan members.

Without realizing it, he had already ‘aged’. After lingering in the cemetery for a moment, Su Yu returned.

The good news was that not long ago, the family head Su Rui’an and the Yu Family had agreed to marry Yu Wenji, the eldest daughter and direct descendant of the Yu Family, making her his Dao companion.

The family hall.

Members of the family’s upper ranks like Su Yu, Su Bin, Su Peng, Su Yun, Su Ruosu, Yu Ke’er, Su Rui’an, Su Qi, etc., all congregated to discuss the marriage alliance between Su Rui’an and the direct descendant of the Yu Family.

Su Rui’an was a member of the younger generation of the Su Family, one generation younger than Su Yu.

As for Yu Wenji, she was the daughter of the current family head of the Yu family, Yu City, and was considered Yu Ke’er’s niece.

The two were not much different in age.

Years ago, Su Rui’an had already broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm and was now at the second level of Foundation Establishment.

Yu Wenji’s cultivation was a bit weaker as she was currently at the ninth level of Qi Refinement stage, but she had the talent to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

As soon as Su Yu came out of seclusion, Su Bin immediately convened the clan members to address the issue of Family Head Su Rui’an’s offspring, saying, “Elder Su Zhen’s days have passed swiftly, now that Little Yu has come out of seclusion, the wedding banquet will be held in a month.”

“At that time, various forces will be invited to attend.”

Su Yu naturally had no problem with this, he even sighed a breath of relief.

He was worried that Su Rui’an, the family head, would foolishly choose to live a lonely life till old age.

After all, this was a serious issue.

Little fellows like Su Qi, Su Ying, Su Dingbang, etc., had yet to choose their companions up till now.

He didn’t know what they were thinking.

With their talents, seeking immortality was basically an impossible task, and a lifetime would probably only amount to one or two hundred years.

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend this short period with a companion?

The trivial matter of the banquet was in charge of the younger generation of elders in the family. Su Bin simply asked Su Yu to think about whether there were any individuals or forces he wanted to invite to the banquet, and let him handle the invitations.

During the time Su Yu was in seclusion, his and the Su Family’s names had caused quite a stir.

The Su Family took this opportunity to aggressively expand their Pill Pavilions in various forces’ markets and accepted alchemy task commissions from various forces.

In a short period, they reaped considerable benefits.

Their foundation and resources took another leap forward.

As the family head of the Su Family is welcoming his Dao companion, the opportunity of this banquet is used to invite various forces to attend. This can strengthen the relationship between the Su Family and the various forces, at least it will no longer be strange as before.

This is to solidify the foundation for the future of the Su Family.

Back in the palace.

Su Yu thought of something else and took out the Nine Glory Token to send a message right away: “Taoist Friend Xiuyu, we are planning a matrimonial banquet for the Head of our Family in a month. At that time, we want to invite various forces to attend. Could Heavenly Market Hall take on the job of sending our invitations?”

Not much later, a return message arrived from the Nine Glory Token. Taoist Xiuyu’s voice came through: “Oh? Is that so? Congratulations, congratulations.”

“Of course, there’s no problem with that. However, this matter is a bit troublesome, the fee—”

Without waiting for Taoist Xiuyu to finish, Su Yu interrupted: “Apart from the banquet, I mainly want to invite them to trade some materials with the Su Family. If they have what we need, we can purchase in large quantities and for a long duration.”

Taoist Xiuyu on the other side was startled for a moment, then immediately understood what Su Yu meant.

Participating in the banquet wasn’t a big deal, however, if trade was involved, then the banquet would be interesting, and they might even form partnerships with various forces. This would be highly beneficial for both the Su Family and Su Yu.

“Alright!”

Taoist Xiuyu then received a list of materials Su Yu wanted to trade from him.

Looking at those things, Taoist Xiuyu’s eyelids couldn’t stop twitching. Materials for pills, talismans, and puppet beasts were all on the list.

First order, second order, third order— they were all needed.

The first and second orders were probably for the Su Family, the third order was likely for Taoist Friend Su, right?

But this amount—

Are you sure you want to trade so many items, Taoist Friend Su?

Taoist Xiuyu felt a little shocked: “Taoist Friend Su, are the reserves this deep?”

Su Yu conveyed: “This list shouldn’t be divulged, I request Taoist Friend to only connect us with those forces that possess the materials we need. If they decide to attend the banquet, then they can trade those items with the Su Family.”

Taoist Xiuyu considered it for a moment and replied: “No problem, but the fee might be a bit high, five hundred middle-grade Spirit Stones.”

Being the middleman and having to relay messages to the various forces was not an easy task.

Five hundred middle-grade Spirit Stones, not too expensive.

Su Yu agreed: “Alright.”

After withdrawing the Nine Glory Token, Su Yu looked at the list and quietly took a few breaths. He silently harbored expectations, saying, “If I can acquire some materials, then I can advance to the early stage of the third-rank Alchemist, Inscriptionist, and Puppet Master, and also increase familiarity with various pills and talismans.”
