“One hundred thousand yuan bought me a supreme divine ability, plus a clue to a cosmic-level inheritance.”
Su Yu stroked his chin.
“This bargain turned out to be a little too good.”
However…
That golden speck of light was absurdly far from the galaxy where Earth was located.
With his current strength, crossing the universe to find it was completely impossible.
“I’ll make a note of it first.”
“When I’m strong enough, I’ll go and investigate.”
Su Yu solemnly placed the tile into his storage ring.
Just then—
Ding-dong.
The apartment doorbell rang right on time.
Eight o’clock in the evening.
Lin Xiaoxiao had arrived.
Su Yu stood up.
The dark-gold divine blood inside him, vast as an ocean, instantly receded without a trace.
His aura once again fell back to the level of a Martial Master.
Click.
The door opened.
Lin Xiaoxiao stood outside, dressed in a clean, sleek black training outfit.
Her long hair was tied into a high ponytail.
Her fair cheeks were filled with unconcealed excitement and pride.
“Good evening, Teacher Su!”
Lin Xiaoxiao clasped her hands behind her back and gave him a playful wink.
Su Yu stepped aside.
“Come in.”
“To the training room.”
The two of them walked one after the other to the underground training room.
As soon as they stopped, Lin Xiaoxiao eagerly grabbed the fine-steel spear leaning against the wall.
“Su Yu, don’t say anything yet!”
“Watch this!”
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath.
The playful expression on her face instantly became exceptionally serious.
Her legs bent slightly as she drew power from her waist.
Without the slightest hesitation, she thrust her spear forward!
Whoosh!
The air was instantly torn apart!
But unlike last night, this time, a faint yet exceptionally pure transparent edge appeared at the tip of the fine-steel spear!
Although it lasted only for a brief moment, it more than doubled the destructive power of the thrust!
“Well?!”
Lin Xiaoxiao withdrew her spear and stood there, panting heavily.
Her bright eyes were practically screaming, “Hurry up and praise me!”
A trace of surprise flashed through Su Yu’s eyes.
Spear intent!
Although it was still extremely immature—not even enough to be considered to have reached the threshold of the “micro” realm—it was undeniably the embryonic form of spear intent!
One had to know that even among the fourth-year geniuses at Jingwu, only a handful had managed to touch the threshold of spear intent!
How long had Lin Xiaoxiao been practicing?
Aside from the sliver of intent he had guided her with last night, she had actually managed to comprehend it on her own so quickly?
“Not bad.”
Su Yu did not skimp on his praise.
“You have exceptional talent.”
“You’ve already touched the threshold of spear intent.”
Hearing Su Yu’s praise, the corners of Lin Xiaoxiao’s lips immediately shot upward.
Her heart felt as sweet as if she had just eaten honey. She was so delighted that she nearly floated into the air.
Receiving the approval of Su Yu—the peerless genius—made her happier than having her father deposit several hundred million yuan into her account!
“Of course!”
Lin Xiaoxiao lifted her chin proudly and clenched her small fists.
“My talent won’t be any worse than yours!”
“Just you wait!”
“ sooner or later, I’ll surpass you!”
The girl’s vow was clear and stubborn.
It carried the spoiled, willful air unique to a young heiress, yet it was filled with unmistakable sincerity.
Su Yu looked at her serious expression.
He merely smiled.
He did not argue.
“Alright.”
“I’ll wait for the day you surpass me.”
“But for now, let’s begin today’s training.”
Su Yu stepped forward, his voice turning stern again.
“You were still dispersing too much force in that last thrust.”
“The edge at the spear tip wasn’t fully concentrated.”
“Again.”
Lin Xiaoxiao immediately put away her pride and obediently assumed the proper stance.
The spear shot forward again.
Su Yu stood beside her, his gaze sharp as an eagle’s.
“Lower your shoulder.”
“Don’t let your wrist tremble.”
Su Yu reached out.
Just as he had the night before, he placed his hand directly over the back of Lin Xiaoxiao’s hand as she gripped the spear.
That same warm sensation spread through her once again.
Lin Xiaoxiao’s body trembled slightly against her will.
The two of them were so close that there was barely any distance between them.
Under the bright lights, Su Yu’s deep-set profile and hard jawline radiated a fatal attraction.
Lin Xiaoxiao’s heartbeat began accelerating again.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Aside from the sound of the spear slicing through the air, the only thing that seemed to remain in the training room was the drumlike pounding of her heart.
An ambiguous atmosphere quietly spread through the air.
Lin Xiaoxiao turned her eyes slightly and stole a glance at Su Yu.
Suddenly, she froze.
A woman’s intuition was always astonishingly sharp.
Although Su Yu had concealed his aura perfectly, the instant their skin touched, Lin Xiaoxiao still vaguely sensed something unusual.
Had Su Yu… become even stronger?
The feeling was like standing before a bottomless abyss.
It appeared calm on the surface, yet contained terrifying power capable of swallowing everything.
“How does he even cultivate?”
Lin Xiaoxiao’s beautiful eyes widened slightly.
Could his qi-and-blood value have broken through again?
Twelve hundred?
Fifteen hundred?
Or even… two thousand?!
Lin Xiaoxiao bit her lower lip. A powerful sense of crisis immediately rose in her heart.
She had only just touched the threshold of spear intent and was already congratulating herself.
Yet Su Yu’s back seemed to be drifting farther and farther away from her!
No!
She absolutely could not let him leave her behind!
Lin Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the fluttering feelings in her heart.
She focused all her attention on the spear in her hands.
“Kill!”
With a sharp cry, she followed Su Yu’s guidance and thrust forward with all her strength!
This thrust was even sharper than before!
After training for a full two hours, Lin Xiaoxiao collapsed onto the sofa, completely exhausted.
Her entire body was drenched in sweat, outlining her youthful, graceful curves.
She gasped for breath, lacking even the strength to move a single finger.
Su Yu handed her a bottle of mineral water.
“That’s enough for today.”
“You’ve made a lot of progress.”
Lin Xiaoxiao took the bottle and gulped down half of it.
Only then did she recover somewhat.
She wiped the sweat from her face with a towel before looking up at Su Yu.
“Su Yu.”
“Hmm?”
“Are you free tomorrow?”
Lin Xiaoxiao’s voice suddenly became somewhat awkward.
She twisted the towel between her hands, her eyes darting away.
“The national martial university exchange tournament is next month.”
“My dad gave me some money to buy a better set of equipment.”
“Could you… come with me?”
Go shopping for equipment with a girl?
Su Yu’s brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
His instinct was to refuse.
With that time, he might as well spend it in the training room, becoming more familiar with the Great Wilderness Starfall Dharma Form he had just comprehended.
Or he could study that star map of the universe.
But…
When he looked at Lin Xiaoxiao’s bright eyes, filled with expectation and a hint of unease, he recalled how she had once stuffed precious cultivation resources into his hands without the slightest hesitation.
Su Yu fell silent for a moment.
Buying equipment.
A mecha? Battle armor?
He had just deduced the Heavenly Craftsman’s Record of Creation to the Grand Completion realm and had been looking for an opportunity to examine the materials and forging techniques available on the market firsthand.
Going with her did not seem like a complete waste of time.
As a matter of fact, his own forging skills might even come in handy.
With that thought, Su Yu nodded.
“Alright.”
“I’ll go with you tomorrow.”
Hearing his definite answer, Lin Xiaoxiao’s eyes instantly lit up like two dazzling stars.
“Really?!”
She leaped excitedly off the sofa and grabbed Su Yu by the arm.
“That’s great!”
“Then let’s meet at the school gate tomorrow morning at nine!”
“See you there!”
With that, and seemingly afraid that Su Yu might change his mind, Lin Xiaoxiao snatched up her coat and dashed out of the underground training room like a gust of wind.
Watching her fleeing figure, Su Yu couldn’t help but laugh.
He shook his head and turned back toward the center of the training room.
“The National Exchange Tournament.”
Su Yu murmured to himself.
Then he shook his head again.
Inside his body, the hundred million points of dark-gold divine blood lay dormant like a slumbering dragon.
In the darkness, it slowly let out a low growl that seemed to shake the heavens and earth.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
