Chapter 549: Value (3)

Great Xia City, capital of Great Xia.

Marquis Xia checked his voice transmission talisman with an expressionless face. The most uptodate novels are published on n0velbj)n((.))co/m

In front of him, Administrator Hu softly said, "Marquis, what are your thoughts about Su Yu? You should have stopped him last night. This is unfavorable for his growth. He is still too young. He does things without considering the consequences."

"You're wrong. He already considered the consequences." Marquis Xia indifferently said, "He knew the consequences. Old Hu, it's time for you to change your mindset that a genius of Great Xia will forever remain a genius of Great Xia and nothing can change that."

That was the truth. A lot of people were taking that for granted. In the eyes of many people, Su Yu would not leave. How was that possible? This was Great Xia, a top three prefecture, a superpower. Su Yu was born here. He grew up here. His loved ones, his teachers, all of them were here.

Him? Leaving? What a joke. Where could he go? Great Zhou? That would be suicide. Great Qin? Was he supposed to switch to physical cultivation there? Great Xia was the most suitable place for Su Yu. Thus, he would never leave.

Administrator Hu blanked out slightly. Then, the look in his eyes changed as he asked, "You mean...he's leaving?"

He had not expected this. He was shocked. Su Yu was leaving?

"Yeah." Marquis Xia calmly said, "Why should he stay? Unless the Xia Family or Wan Tiansheng helps remove the obstacles in front of him, he won't stay. But is that possible?"

"That won't be possible for now..."

"Exactly." Marquis Xia sneered, "In that case, he might as well go somewhere else. There will be a place out there where people don't care about the single character faction. There will be a place out there where he will be given enough space to do what he wants."

"But..." Administrator Hu looked distressed as he said, "Is this a good thing? Marquis, if we let him go..."

"It would be a massive loss for us?" Marquis Xia smiled, "Let it be. Everyone has their own fate. Since you're incapable of providing what he wants, just let him go. Zhu Tiandao is coming personally for him. If you try to force him to stay, you might end up developing a grudge instead. We might as well let go of him while there is no bad blood between us. I suppose this isn't a bad thing for all of us."

Administrator Hu had a helpless look as he asked, "Prefect Zhu is coming personally?"

"Yeah." Marquis Xia laughed, "Let it be."

Administrator Hu looked at Marquis Xia in astonishment. This wasn't like the marquis at all. Wasn't the marquis going to use this chance to earn some money from Prefect Zhu?

Marquis Xia seemed to know what Administrator Hu was thinking. With an exhausted voice, he said, "Don't look at me like this. It's pointless to rip Zhu Tiandao off. He would probably tell Su Yu immediately that the Xia Family has sold him off. In that situation, the final bit of link between us and Su Yu would be severed."

Yes, he enjoyed doing business. He loved money. But everything he did was for the sake of Great Xia. He only wished to make Great Xia stronger. Su Yu's departure wasn't something he wanted to happen. But there was nothing he could do about it.

If he tried ripping the Zhu Family off over this, they might agree to pay. But in doing so, he would completely sever the link between Su Yu and Great Xia. There was no guarantee that Su Yu would be a future Invincible, but he had a very high chance of reaching that realm.

Why sever the relationship with such an individual for some money? Liu Wenyan, Bai Feng, Xia Yunji...The multiple character faction was filled with outstanding individuals. It was not worth ruining their relationship with the multiple character faction for some money. He wasn't stupid.

With an exhausted heart, Marquis Xia stood up and waved his hand, "Just pretend we don't know he's here. Remember to assign Su Yu's father sufficient protection. If he dies, Su Yu will really turn into an enemy. Chop off any hand the single character faction stretches into the military."

"Try to fulfil any of his requests for now. He will probably be leaving before the end of this month. It's up to him."

"I understand."

Administrator Hu sighed. This was very regretful. Before long, he left the room. But shortly after he left, someone else appeared in the room. The newcomer sat down without hesitation and started feasting on the food there.

Marquis Xia nodded and asked, "So are we still leaving Zhou Mingren and his people alone?"

"Yes. We can't touch them for now." Great Xia King stood up and started walking away. While walking, he said, "What's the rush? These are all small fries. Just ignore them for now. Your old man won't make a move lightly. If I'm making a move, I'll only be moving against a truly big fish."

He vanished.

Marquis Xia sat down helplessly. Staring at the mess on the table, he shook his head. The old man was still as sloppy as ever. It was a pity that despite his strength, he was still so barbaric. Right after that thought crossed his mind, a large, golden hand appeared in the air and slapped the back of his head.

"Xiao'er, if you keep talking bad about your old man, I'll beat you to death."

After saying that, Great Xia King finally left for real.

Marquis Xia rubbed the back of his head and sighed. He gave up. It was pointless to grumble about that old man.

...

At the same time.

Zhu Tiandao had just arrived at the capital.

He was quite surprised. Was nobody trying to stop him? What an interesting choice by the Xia Family. So they were going to let him get Su Yu for free? He couldn't be bothered to think too much so he entered the Great Ming Embassy.

...

Great Xia Cultural Research Academy.

Su Yu was busy cultivating. The exchange students from the Great Xia War Academy had arrived, but he was not interested in that. He was still waiting for a reply.

Right at that moment, his voice transmission talisman lit up.

"Night. Third floor of Xia Restaurant. Let's talk."

Su Yu's eyes flickered. This was fast. A representative had arrived so soon? Or perhaps this representative was already in Great Xia? After all, this was too fast. It hadn't even been that long since his talk with Qian Zhihua.

He was quite surprised by the efficiency. But since it had happened so fast, the representative might be someone unimportant in Great Ming.

"Well, I'll see what happens later."

He exhaled and walked out of the cultivation room. When he saw his senior sister and Wu Lan who were still busy working, he sighed and apologized inwardly. He was going to leave.

But...he would definitely return one day! There was no doubting that. He had too much unfinished business in Great Xia. His home was here. His father was here. His teachers and friends were here. Thus, he would return.

On that day, he would no longer need to worry about suppression. He would no longer be afraid of taking a step outside the academy. He was tired of being trapped in this tiny academy. Yes. For him, the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy was too small. This was a small pond inhabited by a bunch of dragons. He couldn't get what he wanted here.

Inside the data room, Wu Lan and Wu Jia looked at Su Yu curiously. For some reason, he felt different today. That look in his eyes...seemed really sorrowful.

Yes. Sorrow.

With one look at that pair of eyes, the two started feeling a sense of sorrow without even knowing why.
