The God of Sky & Earth

This middle-aged man appeared sturdy and robust, exuding a fierce aura. It was evident that he had been living a life of bloodshed and danger outside for years, otherwise he wouldn't possess such an imposing presence.

And indeed, this man was not an ordinary figure. He was the current captain of the Su family's guard, Su Baihan. Although he was not a bloodline descendant of the Su family, his status within the family was not low. He was also a prominent figure in all of Man City, having once served by Old Man Su Yuntian's side.

"Roarrrr..."

In the distance, the continuous roars of demon beasts echoed, while pairs of daunting pupils emitted terrifying glow in the dim darkness of the night.

"Ahh..."

At a certain moment, a howl resembling that of a wolf sounded from afar. The surrounding demon beasts trembled in response, and their fierce eyes quivered, instantly becoming much calmer.

"Captain, look! What is that?"

Suddenly, someone raised their gaze, and from the depths of the night sky, a surge of blood-like light burst forth. A massive shadow of a beast flew by, disappearing in an instant.

"Is that a demon beast? I've never seen anything like it before."

In Man City, deep into the night, occasional roars of beasts could be heard from outside the city.

In front of the gates of the Su family, the lantern lights were dim. Guards stood on watch, remaining vigilant. Lately, there had been frequent appearances of a significant number of demon beasts outside the city, so the Su family had heightened their alertness.

In the distance, a ragged figure appeared, with a slender but upright frame. In the darkness of the night, his eyes emitted a firm and profound light, flickering with a faint red glow. He carried on his back an object that resembled a sword, yet also like a knife, and perhaps even a staff or mace.

This object was wrapped in tattered cloth, secured behind him.

And naturally, this figure was none other than Su Yi.

In order to avoid drawing attention, Su Yi wrapped the broken sword on his back with tattered cloth, making it less noticeable.

"Hoo..."

Gazing at the gates of the Su family, Su Yi let out a long exhale from his mouth. He had returned to the Su family once again and would finally be able to see his grandfather and Wan'er immediately.

As the figure vanished, when Su Yi's form reappeared, he had already reached the backdoor of the Su family. Back in the days when he was at the Su family, he was always sneaking in through this place.

With Su Yi's current cultivation strength, it would be easy for him to enter the Su family unnoticed.

The quiet courtyard, everything seemed unchanged.

A figure quietly appeared, gazing at the tranquil courtyard, their heart inexplicably filled with excitement.

"Knock, knock."

Su Yi lightly knocked on the door, suppressing the excitement in his heart. He hoped that his grandfather would be pleased to see him alive and that his injuries had not worsened during these days.

"Creak…"

The door opened, revealing an old servant with wrinkles covering his face. However, the light in his eyes was unusually clear and shimmering in the darkness. He looked at the tattered figure in front of him with astonishment. Suddenly, his eyes flickered with excitement, and his face changed drastically. His voice trembled as he exclaimed, "Young Master Su Yi, you are Young Master Su Yi! You are alive, you are…"

"Shh!"

Su Yi made a gesture of silence, quietly returning to the Su family, not wanting to disturb anyone. He nodded to the old servant and whispered, "Where is Grandfather?"

From the beginning, Su Yi had a feeling that this old servant was not an ordinary person, and now Su Yi clearly discerned that the old servant was indeed extraordinary. He was actually a cultivator of the Yuan Xuan Realm, which was definitely remarkable within the entire Man City.

"The old master is resting inside. Letinform him. He will be delighted to know that Young Master Su Yi is still alive." The old servant suppressed his excited feelings and said to Su Yi.

"I will go find Grandfather myself. Also, do not tell anyone about my return." Su Yi instructed the old servant and stepped into the courtyard.

Watching Su Yi's figure, the old servant's gaze was filled with astonishment, and he felt an inexplicable tremor in his heart. He couldn't understand why, but he sensed that Su Yi was different from before. There was an undeniable aura surrounding him. When facing Su Yi just now, the old servant inexplicably felt a shiver in his heart. This feeling made him feel that Su Yi was even more extraordinary than the old master.

In the quiet room, Old Man Su Yuntian sat cross-legged, his eyes slightly closed. A faint light enveloped him, and his aura fluctuated, serene and unceasing. His complexion was rosy.

"Hiss..."

Suddenly, Old Man Su Yuntian, whose eyes had been slightly closed, opened them wide. With a single hand seal and a fleeting spark in his eyes, he spoke, "Who is it?"

"Grandfather, it's me." A voice cfrom outside the quiet room.

On the bed, Old Man Su Yuntian's face changed dramatically, and he leaped up quickly.

"Su Yi, is it you who has returned?"

The quiet room opened, and an aged figure rushed out. With flowing white hair and a face marked with the wrinkles of age, one could still see the clear and angular contours of youth. The figure gazed at the tattered figure before him, looking at the familiar face. Though it had lost sof its fair complexion, it had gained in firmness, height, and a somewhat more upright posture.

Su Yi looked at the old man in front of him. His complexion was rosy, and his aura was steady, but his elderly face seemed even older than before, with his hair turning whiter. It must be due to the worries and concerns he had for Su Yi during this period of time...

"Grandfather, it's me, I'm back." Unable to hold back any longer as he looked at the aging face in front of him, Su Yi becteary-eyed at the corners of his eyes and immediately knelt down in respect.

"Su Yi, is it really you...?" Old Man Su Yuntian trembled slightly, reaching out to touch the familiar face before him. The warm breath felt alive and real.

"Hahaha..." The old man laughed, tears of joy streaming down his aged face. His eyes sparkled with a glimmer of light, filled with tears. Overwhelmed with excitement, he said, "It's good you're not dead. I knew it, my grandson, Su Yuntian, would not die young. Surely you will turn calamities into blessings."

"Su Yi, you have been unfilial, causing your grandfather to worry." Su Yi had moist eyes. His grandfather must have been constantly worried about him during this period of time.

"Child, get up quickly. It's good as long as you're okay, really good." Old Man Su Yuntian was filled with excitement as he pulled Su Yi up and carefully inspected him from head to toe, as if checking if anything was missing on Su Yi's body.

"Grandfather, what about your injuries?" Su Yi also inspected Old Man Su Yuntian, male. Initially, Su Yi couldn't determine the extent of his grandfather's cultivation, but now he could roughly guess it. The aura emanating from his grandfather's body had truly reached the level of Yuan Void Realm.

"My injuries have already healed. It happened just yesterday, and I even stepped into the Yuan Void Realm. Speaking of which, I also have to thank that mysterious powerhouse and the people from the Divine Sword School." Old Man Su Yuntian was overjoyed. Not only had his injuries been healed, but he had also stepped into the ranks of the strong by entering the Yuan Void Realm.
