Chapter 53: Estrangement
Tiantong Peak, in Su Yan’s small courtyard.
Su Yan was a little puzzled when he saw Zhao Yan'er, a little girl, visiting with a serious face and motioning for the two of them to go into the back room to talk.
"What's wrong with you? Have you found new clues about [Xuantian Sect]?"
To be honest, Zhao Yaner can no longer be called a little girl. In the past three years, she has grown taller and her figure has broadened. She is less childish and more charming than before.
"No, if you have something important, just come in with me." After saying that, Zhao Yan'er took Su Yan's hand unceremoniously and dragged him towards the house.
Su Yan was a little helpless and didn't know what weird idea this little girl had come up with.
After closing all the doors and windows, Zhao Yaner looked at Su Yan seriously and said, "Brother Su, I discovered something serious today. Someone wants to deal with you!"
Su Yan frowned. This girl didn't look like she was joking, "Who wants to deal with me?"
"Xu Wei." Zhao Yaner said without hesitation.
"Brother Su, you also know that I have always been very talented in earth-moving magic. Whether it is earth escape, using the earth to hide one's own aura, or making clay man clones, I am very good at it."
"I had nothing to do this morning, so I made a clone and wandered around. However, when I was passing by Qisha Peak, I accidentally discovered that Senior Sister Xu Weixu was looking around cautiously, and then entered a quiet dense forest alone.
."
"I was curious for a moment, so I let my clone sneak underground and followed him quietly."
"Since my level is much lower than that of Senior Sister Xu, I don't dare to get too close, and I don't dare to let the clone show its head. I just secretly pay attention to the movement on the ground from a distance."
"Then, I noticed the sound of Senior Sister Xu talking to a certain man. The man was complaining and saying something like "It's been three years, and there's been no progress at all. If it continues, it'll be time for him to leave comfortably."
】."
"I was very surprised when I heard that after three years, I am leaving. Are you talking about Brother Su?"
"I continued to eavesdrop and discovered a shocking conspiracy!"
"It turns out that the reason why Senior Sister Xu met you three years ago was completely arranged. She wanted to gain your trust from the beginning and then frame you."
"As for the specific frame-up method, it seems to be an excuse to teach you some [Fire Control Technique], but in fact it is part of the secret "Five-Colored Cloud and Smoke Technique" that is not taught in this sect."
"Although "Five-Colored Cloud and Smoke Technique" is not a magic formula recorded in the Longjing Sutra, it is also the supreme inheritance from Zhenjun Ning Feng. Brother Su, you have not read that book. It is easy to mistake it for something ordinary.
The fire control technique, and then fell into the trap."
"As soon as you are fooled, Senior Sister Xu and the others will unite and report you to the real people for secretly learning the sect's inheritance, and then put you to death."
"Even if you don't die, at least you will be driven down the mountain immediately. From now on, you will be a stranger to our Qingcheng Palace."
Regarding this shocking conspiracy, Su Yan was still skeptical at first, but when he heard Zhao Yan'er mention the words "Fire Control Technique", he was horrified.
Because Xu Wei really said that she wanted to teach him this technique, but Su Yan casually refused because he didn't have time.
So the question is, if Zhao Yan'er made it up, where did she know about it? She didn't tell her about it. Could it be that Xu Wei told her?
Moreover, Su Yan also knew a little bit about the Five Colored Cloud and Smoke Technique. It is said that when Ning Fengzi was still Tao Zheng of the Yellow Emperor, a divine man passed by the workshop where he worked and personally controlled the fire in the furnace for him.
Miraculously, as soon as this god took over, five-colored clouds of smoke came out of the stove.
Over time, Ning Fengzi learned this method from the hands of gods.
At that time, Ning Fengzi had not yet become an immortal. After learning this method, he was able to "build up fire and burn himself, and follow the smoke up and down." He also experienced the first resurrection from the dead in his life.
Although we don’t know who taught Ning Fengzi the art of controlling fire (some say it was Chisongzi), we can still see how extraordinary this method is.
There was just one question that puzzled Su Yan, "You said it was a secret of Qingcheng Palace that was not passed down. After Xu Wei learns it, can he still teach it to outsiders at will without any restrictions?"
Seeing that Su Yan was a little suspicious, Zhao Yan'er stamped her foot anxiously and said: "Oh, brother Su, you don't know. Although the Five Colored Cloud and Smoke Technique is powerful, it is not a major skill like the Longjing Sutra, so the restrictions are not that big."
"And even so, what Senior Sister Xu can teach others is just the most basic fire control technique. It will be of no use to others. At most, it is more effective to control fire with this method."
"The essence of this matter is to falsely accuse Brother Su of secretly learning the inheritance of our sect, rather than how powerful the part that Senior Sister Xu taught you is. Just learning a little secretly is still stealing!"
Su Yan fell silent again. Zhao Yaner's words were reasonable, especially with Xu Wei's words as testimony.
And now that she was reminded like this, when Su Yan recalled what happened three years ago, she felt that it was a bit too coincidental...
However, given that Yu Yumo had categorically said that Zhao Yaner was a vicious woman who was full of lies, Su Yan still had doubts in her heart, but she did not show it to her face.
"Besides these, what else did Xu Wei say to that man? Do you know who that man is?"
Zhao Yan'er shook her head, "Senior Sister Xu promised the man behind her that she would get this done as soon as possible, and then she walked over to my clay figurine clone."
"I was shocked. I thought she had discovered the clay figurine and immediately disbanded the clones on the spot. I had no idea what happened in the woods behind."
Su Yan nodded slightly, "Besides me, who else have you told this about?"
"No more. As soon as I learned about this, I hurriedly ran to find Brother Su. You must be careful, Yan'er is reluctant to let you go."
When it came to the last part, Zhao Yaner's eyes were watery, as if she was about to cry.
Su Yan smiled and said, "I will not randomly learn what others teach me."
"Okay, that's it. Don't tell anyone about this, including your senior sister and master. After all, you don't have any evidence. Be careful that others will accuse you of slander."
Zhao Yaner hesitated for a moment, "But in this case, brother Su, won't you be in danger?"
Su Yan waved his hand, "As long as I am on guard against this kind of thing, do those people dare to go to Tiantong Peak to attack me?"
"You should go back now. I will naturally investigate the specific matters later."
"Yes." Zhao Yaner reluctantly glanced at Su Yan one last time, "Brother Su, please take care."
