An unexpected encounter

Su Yu observed Ling Wanqing's actions and decided to simply go along with her ideas for now.

It would also be a convenient opportunity for him to go with the flow.

Upon returning home, Ling Wanqing had already brewed tea in the courtyard and was waiting for him.

If not for this consideration, Su Yu could have returned home the very moment he left.

Su Yu watched Ling Wanqing, who now appeared as a gentle wife in the courtyard, a stark contrast to her icy demeanor from just moments ago.

Are these two really the same person?

Ling Wanqing stood up to greet Su Yu. "You're back. You finished your business so quickly?"

"It wasn't anything major. Isn't it better to come back early?"

Su Yu thought of something amusing.

He stared fixedly at Ling Wanqing and circled around her a few times.

Seeing Su Yu acting like this, Ling Wanqing felt extremely nervous inside.

What was going on? Why was Su Yu looking at her like that as soon as he returned? Could he have really discovered something? That shouldn't be; she shouldn't have revealed any flaws.

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that today?"

"Nothing. I just wanted to take a look."

Hearing this, Ling Wanqing let out a sigh of relief. "Sit down quickly. I've already brewed tea for you."

With that, Su Yu sat down and began to drink the tea. Ling Wanqing must have been very nervous just now.

Just then, Su Yu remembered something. "By the way, in a few days, people from some other Sects will be visiting the Star Sea Sect."

"Yun Niang informed me that we both need to go to Qin Island when that happens. Simply put, we're just going through the motions."

Ling Wanqing heard this and replied, "Mm, alright. Let's head over there early when the time comes."

"Yun Niang was just complaining to me a while ago that we are either in seclusion or out playing, and that we spend less and less time at the Dao of the Zither."

"That's true."

A few days passed just like that, and by now, Su Yu and Ling Wanqing had already arrived at the Dao of the Zither.

The two of them chatted with Yun Niang about many things.

Today was the day other Sects and powers were coming to visit.

Su Yu and the others were not sure exactly which Sects would be coming.

Either way, they just needed to welcome the visitors at the Dao of the Zither.

Besides, there shouldn't be many people coming to the Dao of the Zither. Upon thinking this, Su Yu realized, "No, that might not be the case. One must remember that the Dao of the Zither has someone like Yun Niang. I almost forgot about that."

At this moment, the vast majority of the Elders of the Dao of the Zither had gathered, except for those who were busy or still in seclusion.

As for the Disciples, they just needed to act as they usually did. Su Yu and Ling Wanqing went to the area they were responsible for.

In any case, the people coming to the Dao of the Zither were all aiming for Yun Niang.

They just needed to avoid staying with Yun Niang.

At that moment, quite a few people appeared at the main gate of the Star Sea Sect.

These people looked at the Star Sea Sect. "So this is the Star Sea Sect. There are quite a few famous figures within this Sect."

At this moment, Han Shi, Han Ting, and the other two had also arrived here.

Their Sect was not very far from the Star Sea Sect, and with this opportunity, the four of them didn't want to miss coming to take a look.

Su Yu also saw that Han Shi and the other three had arrived; they had come too.

Ling Wanqing naturally knew about the situation outside as well.

Su Yu didn't mind; even if they came over here, he could just disguise himself.

After all, his external cultivation was already at the Void Refinement Stage, which was enough to prevent Han Shi and the others from seeing through him.

As time passed, more and more people arrived at the Sect.

Just as Su Yu had expected, many people headed straight for Qin Island as soon as they arrived at the Star Sea Sect.

By now, quite a few people had already arrived at the Dao of the Zither; their only goal was to see Yun Niang.

Yun Niang's expression was currently one of utter despair. If she had known, she would have found an excuse to go into seclusion as well.

Meanwhile, Su Yu's side and Yun Niang's side formed a sharp contrast.

Their side was much quieter. Although someone would occasionally come over to their side, they would leave again very quickly.

At this moment, Han Shi and the other three had already visited quite a few places.

"This Star Sea Sect can be said to be somewhat better than our Sect, especially the surrounding environment; our side cannot compare to it."

Qi Liang nodded. "Indeed, and it is very unique here."

Han Ting listened to Han Shi and the others discussing these topics and remembered something. "Right, I'm going to walk around Qin Island. I'll come find you all later."

Han Shi heard this and said, "Mm, go ahead."

Han Shi watched Han Ting leave. "The Spirit Domain is different, but the Dao of the Zither can still be cultivated. After Tingting came to the Spirit Domain, whenever she had free time, she would go to Cultivate the Dao of the Zither."

"That's good too. Brother Su was the one who taught Tingting in the beginning. Speaking of Brother Su, if he were here and knew there was such a Sect, he would definitely join it. After all, Brother Su would likely really like everything around here."

Han Ting had already arrived at the Dao of the Zither.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing both sensed Han Ting's Qi. Seeing this, the two of them exchanged a glance.

They both transformed into a different appearance.

Han Ting was walking through the Dao of the Zither when, without realizing it, she walked over to Su Yu's side.

At this moment, Su Yu and Ling Wanqing were teaching the Disciples how to play.

Han Ting watched this scene and felt a sense of nostalgia.

Han Ting did not disturb the two of them and just watched quietly for a while.

It was just that she suddenly felt a sense of closeness to the two people before her. After hesitating for a moment, she still left that place.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing watched Han Ting leave; they hadn't expected to be quite so fated to meet.

Han Ting left Qin Island, found Han Shi and the others, and the four of them continued to wander around the Star Sea Sect.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing changed back to their original appearances. Just then, a chubby man holding a folding fan walked over.

This person was dressed like a rich Young Master, but his appearance was very… how should one put it… very distinctive.

He looked just like a comedic character.

The man looked at Su Yu and Ling Wanqing. "You two must be the Elders of the Dao of the Zither, right? I have inquired about information regarding the two of you."

"Oh? Is there something you need from us?"

Wang Pang looked at the two of them with a smile. "No, no, no, don't misunderstand. I am Wang Pang."

"I came here to ask you two some questions. Of course, I won't ask for free."

With that, he took out some decent resources.

"How about it?"

Su Yu looked at Wang Pang before him. "State your question first; we will consider it."

Wang Pang saw this and said, "Actually, it's nothing much. I have long admired Yun Niang, but I have never had the opportunity."

"I just want to inquire about some of Yun Niang's hobbies, what she likes. I want to start from that angle."

With that, a look of fantasy appeared on Wang Pang's face.

Su Yu and Ling Wanqing exchanged a glance and smiled. "Sorry, we don't know either. Why don't you just go ask Yun Niang yourself?"

"Would she tell me? It's difficult for me to even see her once. Sigh, it's a pity. With my handsomeness paired with Yun Niang, we would truly be a talented man and a beautiful woman."

"It's a pity, a pity. Since that's the case, I shall take my leave and see if anyone else has any intelligence."

Just then, Su Yu looked at a figure in the distance.

Ling Wanqing also saw this figure.

Su Yu's expression was a bit strange; according to seniority, he would still have to call her "Senior Sister".
