Comprehension Ability: I Come From the Great Emperor Family

Martial Extremes Mountain, at the mountain gate.

"Everyone, I’ll take my leave now."

Having already secured the invitee, Su Nan did not linger.

The Little Immortal Sect has been established, and Chang Qing was about to emerge. He needed to quickly take Wu Jiuling back.

"Elder Jiuling has a peculiar temperament. Brother Su, you’ll have to put in some extra effort in the Southern Domain."

Wu Qiong cast a concerned and weary glance at Wu Jiuling.

The Southern Domain was not like Martial Extremes Mountain; it, too, was filled with numerous powerful figures. In the sect, they could still offer some protection.

But if they went to the Southern Domain, with his eccentric and stubborn nature, he feared it could cause significant trouble.

Most importantly, the recruitment of disciples had not yet been settled.

If by chance Elder Jiuling saw Domain Master Su’s son and also remarked ’useless’, he couldn’t imagine if the boy could return alive.

"Haha, don’t worry. I’m Su Nan, not from the Celestial Martial Sect. Even if the recruitment fails, I’ll ensure he returns safe and sound."

"Everyone, farewell."

Su Nan laughed loudly and took a step, disappearing with Wu Jiuling.

"Sect Leader, Jiuling just left with Domain Master Su. If the Celestial Martial Sect holds us accountable, then we..."

A Supreme Elder hesitated, his face full of worry.

The others also remained silent, clearly thinking the same.

The Su family was reasonable, but the Celestial Martial Sect was not so amiable.

Martial Extremes Mountain had just refused the Celestial Martial Sect not long ago, and then allowed the Su family to take someone away the next day. Will the Celestial Martial Sect let it go?

They are not the Su family and cannot withstand the wrath of the Celestial Martial Sect.

"Don’t panic."

Wu Qiong watched Su Nan’s departing figure, his gaze calm as he said:

"The Great Cyan Spear has emerged in the Northern Domain; you think the Celestial Martial figure doesn’t know?"

"Since Domain Master Su has intervened in this matter, he will definitely see it through."

"Celestial Martial..."

His voice paused as Wu Qiong slowly opened his mouth,

"Still cannot afford to provoke the Su family!"

...

Northern Domain, at the edge of the domain.

Su Nan suddenly halted his steps, stopping in place.

"Hmm... why did you stop?" Wu Jiuling asked drunkenly.

"Waiting for someone, otherwise I wouldn’t feel at ease leaving."

Su Nan spoke with a hint of boredom.

Wu Jiuling’s bleary eyes showed a moment of contemplation, then he shook his head and took another large gulp.

"Will this guy really teach disciples?"

Seeing Wu Jiuling’s unreliable appearance, Su Nan couldn’t help but feel a bit of a headache.

Whoosh!

Just as Su Nan and Wu Jiuling had barely stopped, the world before them suddenly collapsed.

An elder in an ancient gray robe stepped calmly out from the shattered space.

The instant this person appeared, it was as if the world had been frozen, even the whispering wind fell silent.

"Su Nan, you came to my Northern Domain without greeting, and now you’re leaving just like that?"

Zhao Shanke from Celestial Martial looked at Su Nan, his eyes radiating with a glow as intense as the sun, the boiling blood energy trembling the space.

"Hey, old fellow, do you want to invite me to the Celestial Martial Sect for a drink?"

"I don’t mind, but you’ll have to change your mountain gate by then."

Su Nan lightly laughed as he shielded Wu Jiuling. The turbulent quasi-Emperor aura from Zhao Shanke dissipated before it could reach him.

Wu Jiuling glanced at Zhao Shanke and sneered, continuing to drink.

Seeing Su Nan blocking in front of Wu Jiuling, Zhao Shanke squinted, cold light flashing in his eyes.

After a while, he spoke lightly, freёnovelkiss.com

"This person called my son a waste. I spared his life out of respect for Martial Extremes Mountain."

"If he dares take disciples, my Celestial Martial Sect will be hard-pressed to respond."

Zhao Shanke didn’t originally want to come today. After all, Su Nan’s strength was something he knew all too well.

But today, he had to come, as the Celestial Martial Sect had already declared that if Wu Jiuling starts taking disciples, they would not let it go.

If he didn’t follow through, wouldn’t it be slapping his own face?

With these words, he was making his stance clear to Su Nan. He didn’t want to be Su Nan’s enemy, but this person had to stay!

"Not my problem."

However, Su Nan merely raised an eyebrow, speaking indifferently.

"Do you really want to oppose my Celestial Martial Sect for a martial artist nearing his end?"

Zhao Shanke’s voice suddenly turned cold, creating an oppressive atmosphere that shook the world.

"Joke, even without this matter, the Su clan and your Celestial Martial have never been friends."

Su Nan found it pointless to waste more words and impatiently stated:

"I’ve made it clear. I’m taking the person, and I’ll also protect Martial Extremes Mountain."

"If your Celestial Martial wants to play dirty, I can’t stop you, but remember, if anything happens to Martial Extremes Mountain or Wu Jiuling, I’ll flatten your Celestial Martial Sect!"

"You should know whether my, Su Nan’s, words are to be trusted. Dare to try if you have the nerve!"

With that, Su Nan turned and left with Wu Jiuling.

Seeing this, Zhao Shanke’s chest heaved with anger, his eyes a cold glint mixed with murderous intent, yet he dared not step forward to stop them.

In his prime, holding an Emperor’s Weapon at any moment, at the peak of quasi-Emperor, there was no one capable of stopping him in this world.

He looked at Su Nan’s departing figure, angrily shouting,

"Su Nan, you won’t be arrogant for long, the suppression of the heavens and earth will dissipate, the seal on the Dark Forbidden Area will open!"

"The area suppressed by your Southern Domain is twice that of the other domains. I want to see if you alone can protect the entire Southern Domain by then!"

"The Su clan is strong, but without you, Su Nan, who knows if they can withstand those enemies!"

Wu Jiuling’s drunken demeanor instantly changed, shock covering his face as he looked towards Su Nan.

This matter was unknown to anyone except the domain masters of the five domains, and it was his first time hearing about it.

Su Nan paused his steps, slowly turning back to look at Zhao Shanke, that calm gaze making Zhao Shanke’s hairs stand on end.

Yet Su Nan didn’t take action, merely chuckling softly,

"You should be thankful to have been born in this era where the countless creatures of the continent still need you."

"Otherwise, do you think you’d still be alive now?"

With a faint sneer, Su Nan and Wu Jiuling continued walking away.

Zhao Shanke stood there in a daze, only understanding Su Nan’s words after a beat, his pupils contracting abruptly.

Even so, he shouted aloud once more.

"Su Nan, indeed I am no match for you, but my son is certainly not inferior to your offspring!"

"On the matter of Martial Extremes Mountain, I yield to you, but during the Celestial Martial’s ancestral ceremony a year from now, the Su family must attend!"

"I want to show you! Even if you bring back the strongest Foundation Establishment martial artist Wu Jiuling, the Su family’s descendants will still lose!"

This concerned the reputation of the Celestial Martial Sect and his own son’s honor, so a resolution was a must.

Although Su Nan walked away without a backward glance, Zhao Shanke knew the other party would certainly come!

He had already conceded a step. If Su Nan wouldn’t meet him halfway, then Martial Extremes Mountain would inevitably bear the consequences.

...

On the way back, Wu Jiuling looked at the ever-silent Su Nan and spoke,

"Zhao Shanke’s youngest son is not without talent; he has the ’Celestial Martial Overlord Body’ of this generation."

"What kind of physique does your son have? Does he have any chance a year from now?"

This matter ultimately originated because of him, so Wu Jiuling was somewhat more concerned about the disciple recruitment.

"Celestial Martial Overlord Body? You even dismiss that?"

Su Nan did not answer, but instead cast a surprised look at Wu Jiuling.

The Celestial Martial Overlord Body is one of the top physiques in martial cultivation. Once activated, its defense is astonishing, and its strength reaches the heavens.

If that couldn’t meet Wu Jiuling’s standard, what terrifying talent would be needed?

"I’m a Celestial Martial Overlord Body myself, yet I still turned out to be so useless?"

Wu Jiuling sneered dismissively,

"The path of the Overlord Body has reached its peak with me, yet it is far from the limit of my inheritance."

"According to my years of research, only with a ’Martial Divine Body’ or ’Heavenly Ancestor Body’—Emperor Bodies—can my inheritance be maximized."

Hearing this, Su Nan looked incredulously at the old man beside him,

"Have you been drinking too much fake wine? If one has an Emperor Body, why would they need your inheritance?"

Wu Jiuling chuckled at his words: "Do you know when you spoke of the rumor about the ’Martial Ancestor’s’ great tomb at the Great Hall of Martial Extremes, why I wasn’t tempted?"

The Martial Ancestor, the legendary Great Emperor of the Northern Domain, even among all the past Great Emperors, was a leader!

"Old man doesn’t know the value..."

Su Nan’s words suddenly halted, then he swiftly turned to look at Wu Jiuling, "Don’t tell me, your inheritance... originates from the Martial Ancestor!"

Wu Jiuling burst out laughing at this, taking a large swig of fine wine into his belly,

"Indeed!"
