Chapter 155: Chapter 153: You’re Just a Student—Can You Bear the Burden of Someone Else’s Life?

"Are you Su Yuan, young friend? I know you, the young lady trusts you very much."

"Su Yuan, young friend, I have an unreasonable request... I wonder if you could persuade the young lady to return home to awaken her bloodline. It’s something beneficial and harmless."

"From a friend’s perspective, I think you should help persuade her."

After hearing Housekeeper Zheng’s sincere words, Su Yuan began to ponder.

Indeed, what the other party said wasn’t incorrect. He was just a poor man, unable to do anything except protect the class leader.

This inherently dangerous bloodline awakening is best done at home.

But... why does something feel off?

Su Yuan glanced at Housekeeper Zheng, then turned to look at Chen Nuoyi, and for the first time in ages, activated the Demon Technique·Finger Fate!

Inky black characters appeared above the girl’s head.

[Demon Goes North (Not Yet Responded)]

Demon Goes North?

Seeing this somewhat nonsensical fate verdict, a string of question marks popped up in Su Yuan’s mind.

Let’s not mention the first two characters in the verdict; they clearly slander him.

So what does "Goes North" mean?

Does it mean heading towards the north in a literal sense?

But... the Chen Family’s estate isn’t to the north; on the contrary, it’s directly south of Taihua City.

If the verdict of going north is to be taken literally, then today Chen Nuoyi would not only fail to return to the Chen Family but instead take a path entirely contrary to it.

But why is that?

Why did the class leader ultimately escape from the Chen Family?

All these incomprehensible things made Su Yuan fall into deep thought, and the atmosphere briefly became somewhat tense.

And just at that moment, Su Yuan’s phone vibrated slightly in his pocket.

He quickly glanced at the phone, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

Because the message on the phone was sent by Chen Xian, and the content was very simple.

"After the young lady returns to the family, she can attain immortality, Su Yuan, do as you see fit."

After reading this brief message, Su Yuan was silent for a few seconds and only replied with four words.

"Call me Sect Leader."

Putting away his phone, he turned to Chen Nuoyi and said calmly:

"Class leader, the Chen Family seems to have researched a way to suppress your bloodline so that you cannot awaken it."

"Saying they want you to return to awaken your family’s bloodline, they must be deceiving you."

At these words, the girl was stunned.

She turned to look at the somewhat astonished old housekeeper, her bright eyes filled with sadness:

"Grandpa Zheng, were those words you just said meant to deceive me... Even you are deceiving me?"

"Young lady, it’s a well-intentioned lie."

Housekeeper Zheng first explained with some embarrassment, then turned to Su Yuan and sighed helplessly.

"It looks like there’s a mole in the family, Su Yuan, young friend, well done."

Su Yuan nodded slightly:

"Thank you for the compliment."

Housekeeper Zheng’s expression became a bit more serious, and he said solemnly:

"Indeed, the master has researched a secret technique that can suppress the young lady’s bloodline, preventing its awakening."

"Though it would mean the young lady must stay within the family to continually suppress her bloodline and never reach the Top Ten, it could grant her immortality."

"Su Yuan, young friend, regardless of where you got the information about the Chen Family’s bloodline, I assume you know the dangers of the Chen Family’s bloodline."

"Once awakened, the young lady will be on a countdown to her lifespan, following the path of her mother and grandmother."

"The master and I truly can’t bear to see the young lady die young, so we had no choice but to take this desperate measure."

"The love between a man and a woman is a minor matter, Su Yuan, young friend, if you truly care for the young lady, you should let go."

Su Yuan raised an eyebrow and sneered:

"Allowing the class leader to attain immortality is certainly a good thing, but the fact that the Chen Family hid this from us outsiders and tricked the class leader into returning proves that this matter cannot see the light of day, doesn’t it?"

"You know better than anyone the huge side effects of this so-called life-extending method."

"Once used, the class leader might not even be able to break through the Foundation Establishment Stage and would only become a mascot caged within the family."

Housekeeper Zheng snorted coldly, responding coldly:

"That’s still better than falling early in ten years."

Su Yuan shook his head:

"Suppressing the bloodline to extend life or awakening the bloodline to seek a method to stabilize it during the process of becoming stronger is not for us to decide."

"It all depends on the class leader’s opinion."

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan turned to Chen Nuoyi:

"Class leader, are you planning to accept the Chen Family’s arrangement for you?"

"I refuse."

Without any hesitation, Chen Nuoyi resolutely replied under Housekeeper Zheng’s incredulous gaze:

"I am a cultivator. Rather than living my life confined within a cage, I aspire to reach the pinnacle of the Immortal Dao, a peak ordinary people have never seen."

"Breaking the bloodline curse is indeed extremely difficult, so much so that my mom, grandmother, and the Chen Family ancestors all failed."

"But precisely because they failed, I should inherit their will, catch up to them, and completely break the bloodline’s limits, so as not to repeat this despairing reincarnation."

Listening to Chen Nuoyi’s firm and powerful words, Housekeeper Zheng reached a point of desperate disregard for etiquette:

"Young Miss! You can’t achieve this!"

"I’ve heard those same words from your mother and grandmother, but they all failed!"

"You will fail too, you will definitely fail! So give up this unrealistic idea and come back with me, alright?"

The girl shook her head still, the determination in her beautiful eyes unfaltering by the rejection.

And at that moment, Su Yuan’s calm voice emerged:

"I don’t know what exactly the Chen Family’s bloodline limit is, nor do I know how difficult it is to break that thing."

"But what I can assure is that, even if the class leader can’t succeed in breaking the bloodline limit, I will back her up."

"So old housekeeper, please stop worrying about those trivial concerns, alright? Your rotten comments just now were downright disgusting, and I really don’t want to hear them anymore."

"You?"

Housekeeper Zheng sharply turned his head, his gaze toward Su Yuan turning icy.

"Are you saying you will back up the young miss?"

"How much determination are you carrying to speak such words?"

"You are merely a student. Can you shoulder the life of someone else?"

With each word Housekeeper Zheng uttered, his tone grew more severe, a terrifying pressure of a Foundation Establishment cultivator surging toward Su Yuan like a tidal wave.

Facing this terrifying oppressive might, Su Yuan stood his ground, looking calmly at the old housekeeper.

And after a few seconds of standoff, the oppressive force suddenly retracted, accompanied by a cold snort:

"Forget it, arguing with a student like you is meaningless. Today, regardless of the young miss’s wishes, I will take her away."

After saying this, he ignored Su Yuan and directly reached out to grab Chen Nuoyi.

Under the oppressive might of a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator, the girl could barely move.

But at that moment, from within Su Yuan’s sleeve, a streak of blood-red light shot out like lightning, attacking the hand extended by Housekeeper Zheng.

This streak of blood-red light was just too fast, almost surpassing the visual capture limit of Qi Cultivation cultivators.

And even though Housekeeper Zheng, at Foundation Establishment Peak, reacted swiftly to retract his hand, he was still grazed by the blood-red light.

A blood mark appeared on the back of his hand, glaringly noticeable.

"What?"

Housekeeper Zheng looked somewhat astounded at the blood-red light poised on the ground.

It’s Bai Ling!

For this suddenly appearing Foundation Establishment Peak Demon King, Housekeeper Zheng clearly did not recognize it.

However, he could clearly sense Bai Ling’s hostility toward him, as well as Bai Ling’s combat power far exceeding that of a typical Foundation Establishment Peak Demon King.

If he were not careful, Housekeeper Zheng could fall prey.

"My apologies, the class leader is the Vice Sect Leader of my Primordial Sect, I won’t allow her to be taken away and wasted by the Chen family just like that."

Su Yuan spoke lightly, all the while pulling Chen Nuoyi onto the Mai Bahe.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, closing the door, and fastening the seatbelt, Su Yuan rolled down the window, speaking to Housekeeper Zheng, who remained in a standoff with Bai Ling, not daring to divert any attention.

"By the way, Bai Ling is the spirit pet of Master Taibai. Regardless of whether you can defeat it, if you dare to harm Bai Ling, you’ll be in big trouble."

With that, under Housekeeper Zheng’s almost murderous gaze, Su Yuan cheerfully rolled up the window.

Then, sitting in the driver’s seat, Su Yuan stared at the lavish and colorful interior, momentarily at a loss.

Speaking of which, seems like you need a license to operate a flying ship...

"Class leader, do you have a license?"

Su Yuan asked, somewhat embarrassed, looking at the girl sitting in the passenger seat with bright, starry eyes fixed on him.

Chen Nuoyi: "..."

Hey, hey! Can’t you avoid dropping the ball at the coolest moment? The whole scene just collapsed, you know?

......Split Line......
