Chapter 177 Su Yu's Trade-off

After taking the letter, Yan Shaozhe opened it and couldn't help but let out a long sigh after reading it.

"Dean Yan, what did my father say?" Su Yu didn't know what was written in the letter. When he received the secret letter, he opened it and saw only a short note.

Give this letter to your dean.

???

Su Yu never figured out what this letter meant.

"Your father said that due to some family reasons, he hopes you can graduate from the inner courtyard as soon as possible. The family needs you to come back to inherit, and he doesn't want you to get involved in the Sea God Pavilion." Yan Shaozhe couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If Su Yu could stay in Shrek Academy, it would surely be of great help to the development of Shrek's martial soul department and soul guidance department.

But after thinking about it, Yan Shaozhe felt relieved.

Su Yu has a family, he is not one of those common people, so naturally it is impossible for him to stay in Shrek in the future.

"Then, Dean Yan, what kind of graduation assessment can be arranged for me?" Su Yu asked tentatively.

After a brief thought, Yan Shaozhe slowly said, "According to the rules of the inner academy, you can graduate when you reach level 70, but in view of your family's problems, the academy will make appropriate arrangements after consultation. After all, your family..."

"My family?" Su Yu was stunned for no reason, as if he sensed a hint of hidden meaning.

"It's nothing. If you want to stay in Shrek Academy in the future, the door of Shrek will always be open to you. Go ahead. I've approved your vacation this time. We will arrange everything else." As he said that, he waved to Su Yu.

Looking at Yan Shaozhe's somewhat puzzled look, Su Yu realized something he had been neglecting.

The Su family, the Xingluo Empire, the Xingluo royal family...

Things are indeed not that simple.

A tall tree attracts the wind. Everything is not as simple as imagined.

However, Su Yu did not expect that things would happen so quickly, which caught him off guard...

"Mr. Chen, tell me, is the family matter related to the Xingluo royal family?"

On the way out, Su Yu sorted out his thoughts and asked.

Mr. Chen did not answer, but what he handed him said it all.

Looking at the broken soul guide in his hand, Su Yu's hand holding the soul guide dropped weakly.

Because this soul guide was originally given by him to Su Chenghua, the leader of the Tiandou City branch. Although it was a fifth-level soul guide, Su Chenghua was a Soul Emperor, and to have a fifth-level soul guide made by Su Yu was already unmatched among his peers.

"It must be someone from the Xingluo royal family. If nothing unexpected happens, I think the soul guide sales of our family and Mingde Hall and our own soul guide laboratory will have to be handed over to them, right?" Su Yu looked at the broken soul guide fragments in his hand and roughly guessed some details.

"I think the master knows more specific things. It's better for you to go back as soon as possible, because..." Before Mr. Chen could finish his words, he was interrupted by another voice.

"Because I may have to go back and turn myself in. The charge is collusion with the Sun-Moon Empire, which is considered treason, right? After all, my father was once a student at the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy of the Sun-Moon Empire, and so was my mother. I was also an exchange student in the Sun-Moon Empire, and I signed an order with Mingde Hall..."

Su Yu controlled the soul guide and followed closely behind Old Chen.

…………

"Master Xuan, Su Yu is not participating in this competition. It's not that Su Yu doesn't want to go, but the Su family may really be in trouble." Yan Shaozhe handed the letter in his hand to Master Xuan, "This is Su Xinyuan's letter, please take a look."

After receiving the letter, Elder Xuan frowned, "How could this happen? At this critical moment, how could the Xing Luo Empire..."

"You are not unaware of the Su family's problems. After all, under the current situation, the Su family is cooperating so closely with Mingdetang. Moreover, the Su family's soul guide production also uses methods that do not belong to the three major empires. It is normal for them to have doubts. However, Su Yu has suffered an unprovoked disaster because of this." Yan Shaozhe said helplessly.

"You mean, if Su Yu goes back now, he might go back as a hostage?" Old Xuan widened his eyes. If Su Yu was a student of Shrek, Old Xuan would naturally seek justice for Su Yu. However, once it involves a country's internal affairs and family issues, even Old Xuan would not be able to intervene.

Because Su Yu has the Achilles' heel of his family behind him. If Su Yu was like Huo Yuhao, with the support of Shrek Academy behind him, the Xing Luo Empire would not dare to investigate anything about the Su family even if it had ten times the courage.

On the way back, Su Yu thought a lot. If he really reached a situation where there was no way out, Su Yu could only choose the worst path.

As he spoke, Su Yu looked back at the place where the Star Forest was...

As if sensing something, Di Tian, ​​who was in the Star Dou Great Forest, looked back from afar, as if he had also noticed something.

"Master, that kid..." Di Tian hesitated for a moment, then spoke while looking at the Lake of Life in front of him.

The voice of the Silver Dragon King came slowly from the lake, "Since this human is useful to us, we need to protect him. After all, the only one who can change the situation of the soul beasts now is probably that human. Take action when necessary and spare his life. After all, he still carries half of the luck of our Xingdou Great Forest in his body."

"I understand. I will keep an eye on this human. However, my lord, are there still no clues about the Dragon God? You know, last time he found it on that kid..." Di Tian couldn't help but think of the scene at that time.

The Silver Dragon King was silent for a moment, then he said, "Things are not as simple as you think. Let's talk about this later. When that human boy reaches the Title Douluo level, bring him to see me. I need to continue sleeping. My injuries still cannot allow me to wake up. During my sleep, do not wake me up easily unless it is related to that boy."

"My Lord, I understand."

After the Silver Dragon King finished speaking, he fell into silence again, and it was obvious that he had fallen into a deep sleep again. Her injuries were too serious. If it weren't for the serious injuries, she wouldn't be sleeping in the Lake of Life now.

Di Tian looked at the illusory figure in the distance, seemingly thinking about something.

Tens of thousands of years have passed, so these few short decades won’t make a difference.

Human beings, you can be considered an outlier among humans...

Su Yu, I am looking forward to what your future will be like.

Di Tian looked at the figure flying over the Star Dou Great Forest and muttered to himself.

"Di Tian, ​​do you think we really have to hand our future over to that human?" Brigitte asked worriedly.

Di Tian shook his head and said, "The road ahead is long and everything needs to be verified. Regardless of whether we believe in this human being or not, the Lord's decision will not be wrong."

"Why?" Biji asked in confusion. The scene of the conversation with Su Yu that day appeared in Di Tian's mind.

Su Yu seemed like a wise man who had experienced countless hardships and knew some strange knowledge that even Di Tian could not understand.

"Because he is Su Yu, a different one..."

After a long silence, Di Tian continued, "Humanity..."

"Different humans?" Brigitte couldn't understand Di Tian's thoughts. Are such humans fundamentally different from others?
This doubt comes from cognition. Brigitte is not in Di Tian's position, so he cannot understand.

Di Tian couldn't understand a human being, let alone why he would do such a strange thing.

…………

"Young Master, the Xingluo Imperial Capital has arrived."

Old Chen's voice brought Su Yu back to reality. Looking at the Xingluo City in front of him, a complicated expression appeared on Su Yu's face.

"We have to come back eventually, but it doesn't matter. As long as I'm here, everything will be fine. Old Chen, let's go back. My parents have probably been waiting for us for a long time..."

Looking at the royal guards who were welcoming them, Su Yu smiled calmly. Since he had guessed that his family would be in the current situation, Su Yu had already prepared for this day.

"Master Su, now that you are back, please come with me. I am just doing my official business." The commander of the guards in front of him spoke to Su Yu.

Su Yu nodded and said, "I understand. Thank you, Commander Luo."

Under the leadership of Commander Luo, Su Yu came to the palace of the Xingluo Empire.

"Your Majesty, the person has been brought here." Commander Luo knelt down and saluted to the Xingluo Emperor Xu Jiawei, then retreated.

"Your Majesty, I am honored to meet you, Su Yu."

Su Yu was wearing the Shrek inner courtyard school uniform, and it was precisely because of this outfit that Su Yu did not have to kneel down to Xu Jiawei.

However, proper etiquette was still required, and Su Yu bowed to Xu Jiawei.

"Don't be nervous. I summoned you here for nothing else." Xu Jiawei's expression was very kind. Su Yu knew that once the seemingly kind Emperor Xingluo knew about Su Yu's Wanjing Sect, the Su family would probably be on the verge of a major change.

Su Yu looked at Xu Jiujiu and Xu Jiawei in front of him, "This is what my father asked me to give to Your Majesty. I neglected it a few days ago because I was dealing with some family affairs. I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."

As he spoke, Su Yu handed over all the letters he had exchanged with Mingdetang with both hands.

The cooperation between Su Yu and Mingdetang is completely normal, but even if this kind of cooperation is nothing special, it is extremely easy to arouse other people's suspicion.

What Su Yu needs to do now is to dispel all the doubts of the Xingluo royal family. If there is really no other way, then he can only start with Xu Jiujiu, his happy enemy.

After all, the only person he has contact with in the royal family right now is Xu Jiujiu.

"It's okay, it's okay. Come talk to me. I haven't been back to the capital in several years." Xu Jiawei took the letter in his hand, then stood up and walked out of the hall.

Su Yu followed Xu Jiujiu's signal. Looking at Xu Jiujiu's gloating look, Su Yu knew that a big tree attracts the wind, and he would always be constrained by them if he stayed in the Xing Luo Empire.

Either they fled far away overseas, like the Star Luo Empire in later generations, or they moved their families to the Sun and Moon Empire.

Of course, moving the whole family to the Sun and Moon Empire is the last plan and also the worst plan.

"In the battle four years ago, you were indeed unexpected, little guy. Tell me how you won then." Xu Jiawei stood in the palace and looked down at everything outside the palace as if recalling the past.

Su Yu said, "That time it was just a fluke. If it weren't for the martial soul fusion technique, I think the final victory might have changed hands."

Xu Jiawei was obviously very interested in Su Yu's past. "I heard that you were the captain of the Shrek team in the last competition? And you were also the strongest among the exchange students from the Sun and Moon Empire?"

“Your Majesty, you are too kind. These things are just legends. The real captain is Huo Yuhao.” Su Yu didn’t want to admit too much. After all, the more dazzling he performed, the more likely he would be restrained by the Star Luo Empire.

Xu Jiujiu said: "Will you still participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition?"

"Your Highness, I have already taken a leave of absence from Shrek Academy and will not be participating in this competition." Su Yu continued to answer truthfully.

The water is too muddy this time. I can only wait for my chance in the dark. I can't just rush into the competition on impulse.

"Take a leave of absence from Shrek? What are you going to do next? Come back to inherit the family?" Xu Jiawei did not expect Su Yu to choose to take a leave of absence from Shrek.

Seeing Xu Jiawei's puzzled look, Su Yu replied: "Your Majesty is right, inherit the family business."

"For you, it would be a waste if you were to inherit the family business with all your strength. If you could join the army of my Xing Luo Empire, I think your future would be better than if you inherited the family business." Xu Jiawei's meaning was very clear, to join the Xing Luo Empire.

Su Yu replied: "I once thought about joining the military to serve the country, but my parents didn't want me to join the army, and my beloved is still waiting for me at Shrek Academy."

"Your beloved? Is she also from my Xing Luo Empire?" Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu both became interested. They were also curious about who Su Yu's beloved was.

Speaking of beloved ones, Xu Jiawei's beloved woman has been staying in Shrek Academy. If you calculate carefully, she is more than ten years older than Zhang Lexuan. In other words, Xu Jiawei's first love should be a senior student in the inner courtyard.

"She is from the Haotian Sect of the Tianhun Empire." Su Yu did not intend to bring up Wang Donger's identity, but simply mentioned it briefly.

"So what are your plans next? Will you stay in the family to manage the business?" Xu Jiawei continued to ask.

Su Yu shook his head and said, "I will not inherit the family in the short term, but I think I may travel around after I come back this time. If Your Majesty has anything to say, please let my father tell me."

　I hope you are all well and please protect yourself during the epidemic.
