Chapter 230: Agree, Chat at Night
Su Yi’s eyes lit up when he heard Elder Nie’s words. Then, he looked at Nie Dingtian and said calmly.
“Elder Nie, I do want to explore the ancient ruins. However, just as you said, the ancient ruins are controlled and sealed by those aristocratic families. I think only the descendants of those aristocratic families can enter, right?”
“Indeed, only the descendants of those aristocratic families are able to enter.” Nie Dingtian nodded his head and slowly said. However, he continued, “however, my Nie family is also one of the aristocratic families. We have a quota to begin with, and I have come out of seclusion for the ancient ruins.”
“How about it, kid? As long as you agree to one condition of this old man, this old man will give you one of the quotas of our Nie family.”
After hearing this, Su Yi thought for a while and finally agreed happily.
“As long as Senior Nie’s condition doesn’t exceed the scope of my ability, then the I will naturally agree.”
His answer was very firm. It was not a way to cower in fear, but to complete the condition within the scope of his ability. After exceeding the scope of his ability, he did not dare to guarantee.
However, who knew that Nie Dingtian would look at him with a serious face and say slowly, emphasizing each word. “No, regarding my conditions, whether it is beyond your ability or not, you have to fulfill them. Otherwise, I won’t give you the Nie family’s quota.”
The faint pressure from Old Master Nie made the legs of an ordinary cultivator go weak. However, Su Yi still looked straight at him and said calmly, neither servile nor overbearing.
“Elder Nie, let’s not talk about the scope of my ability first. Let’s talk about the conditions first.”
He did not dwell on the questions later. Instead, he asked what the conditions were. This way, if the requirements were too much for him to fulfill, then he would not have to go.
If not, then great. He would go to the ancient ruins.
Very quickly, Nie Dingtian revealed the conditions.
However, this condition made Nie Ling, who was next to him, look incredulous.
“I want you to protect Ling’er!”
When he said this, Su Yi and Nie Ling were both shocked.
“Grandpa, do I have to go too?”
Nie Ling did not quite understand. The ancient ruins opened once every 30 years, and she was only 19 years old. It was obvious that the ancient ruins opened once 11 years before she was born.
Nie Dingtian was silent for a moment. He looked at Nie Ling and nodded.
“Yes. Although the ancient ruins are filled with dangers, there are also countless opportunities. Didn’t you tell your father before? If you want to pursue the immortal path, just having talent isn’t enough. You also need a large amount of resources to support you.”
“Only then can you continue on the immortal path. Moreover, with this kid’s protection, grandfather will be able to rest assured in the ancient ruins.”
Nie Dingtian’s eyes flashed as he looked at Su Yi.
At this moment, Su Yi also looked at Nie Ling. He could feel that Nie Ling currently had the strength of the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage. With Nie Ling’s talent, it was already very impressive for her to be able to reach this level in a short period of time.
However, if she did not have a greater opportunity, how long would it take for her to form her core?
One year? Or two years?
Before nie ling could say anything, he said firmly, “okay, Senior Nie, I agree to your conditions.”
Hearing this, Nie Dingtian’s solemn face finally broke into a smile. Then, he said lightly with a hint of happiness.
“Okay, since you’ve agreed, then you must do it. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”
“Grandpa!” Nie ling was angry. She looked at Nie Dingtian and said angrily, “grandpa, I don’t know how dangerous the ancient ruins are, but if you insist on making such a condition to tie up fellow Daoist Su, then I might as well not go.”
Her slightly mature chest heaved slightly. Obviously, Nie Dingtian’s condition made her really angry.
However, this time, Nie Dingtian did not go along with her. He brought her to the side and looked at her with a strange expression.
“Are you really not going to look for opportunities? Right now, Su Yi’s strength has already reached the peak of the great desolate region. How are you going to…”
Nie Dingtian did not continue. He knew that his clever granddaughter would definitely understand what he meant.
On the contrary, Su Yi was still in a daze, looking at Nie Dingtian with some surprise.
This Nie family’s old master was so powerful? He could actually see what level of strength he was at?
In fact, from the beginning, when the two of them were competing with their true essence, Nie Dingtian had already discovered that Su Yi’s strength might be even stronger than he had imagined.
Nie Ling seemed to have thought of something, and a resolute look flashed across her eyes before she said indifferently.
“Alright, I’ll leave it to you then, fellow Daoist Su,” she looked at Su Yi and said with a faint smile. Who would know the sadness in the depths of her eyes?
Su Yi only lightly nodded his head. For him, Nie Ling being able to find an opportunity was okay. At the very least, with his current strength, it would not be a big problem for him to protect someone.
…
At night, Su Yi did not leave the Nie family. Nie Dingtian told him that he would head to the ancient ruins three days later and meet up with the other families. After that, he would open the seal and enter the ancient ruins.
At this moment, he was standing in the courtyard with his hands supporting the railing. His pair of deep eyes were looking at the waning moon in the sky. His thoughts seemed to be wandering as if he was thinking about something.
Since it was an aristocratic family from the great desolate region that was going together, then the Zhao family that Zhao Xuening was in should also have a spot. However, he did not know if Zhao xuening would go to the ancient ruins?
“What are you thinking about?”
Suddenly, a gentle voice slowly sounded in his ear. At the same time, a faint fragrance entered his nose.
He turned around and saw Nie Ling beside him. He did not know when, but she seemed to have just finished bathing. Her delicate face was flushed red.
From time to time, there seemed to be steam rising up. Nie Ling slowly leaned against his side and looked at the waning moon in the sky.
However, Su Yi’s gaze was no longer on the waning moon in the sky.
Nie Ling’s clothes were very thin. From his point of view, he could even see a trace of… cough.
Immediately, the face that could charm thousands of young girls turned slightly red and looked elsewhere. He said faintly with some guilt in his heart, “no, it’s nothing. I was just wondering if fellow Daoist Zhao would also go if all the aristocratic families were to go.”
Su Yi’s question seemed very normal, but he had forgotten one fatal flaw, which was that he rarely mentioned another woman in front of other women.
Especially when it was deep in the night, words that completely affected the atmosphere.
If Su Yi placed his gaze on Nie Ling at this time, he would discover that Nie Ling’s face was practically black at this moment.
Then, he only heard Nie Ling uttering coldly before quietly leaving.
“It’s getting late. Fellow Daoist Su, it’s better to go get some rest.”
