Chapter 821: Long Time No See

Liu Rumei’s heart had long been dead. She had thought of suicide a hundred times, but because she couldn’t let go of Lu Yunxian, she continued to live.

Lu Yunxian was her greatest pride in this life, and all her hard work. Through Lu Yunxian, she also met Su Han.

But in her view, although Su Han had decent talent and quite good luck, he ultimately lacked foundation, had limited potential, and could only jump around in a small place like Qingzhou. No matter how excellent he was, he couldn’t step out of the Eastern Region.

Back then, she wanted to take Lu Yunxian away because Lu Yunxian’s talent was exceptional, and staying in the Seven Stars Sect had no future. Moreover, the Origin Wound could only be healed by returning to the Liu Family.

But she also had a bit of her own agenda, which was to separate Su Han and Lu Yunxian.

In her view, Lu Yunxian was the daughter of divine beings, awakened with inherited memory, with a boundless future. She was sure to be the brightest new star of this era, while Su Han’s achievements were limited. If the two continued to be together, Su Han would undoubtedly hold her back.

And in fact, her thoughts were correct. After Lu Yunxian came to the Liu Family, she shone like a pearl, quickly gaining attention, and was even adopted as a foster daughter by the family head for personal guidance.

Now Lu Yunxian has become the brightest new star in the Central Plains, and has even broken through to the Saint Realm, standing in the same ranks as Imperial Sons and Daughters, considered extremely noble.

What she didn’t expect was that Su Han was much more impressive than she anticipated. Not only had he walked out of the Eastern Region, but he had also made a grand name in the Central Plains, and was now invited by the Ancient Liu Family to participate in a martial arts competition for marriage.

"Elder Liu Rumei, let’s find a place to talk!"

Su Han transmitted his voice with Divine Sense once again, not daring to leave any flaws.

Upon hearing Su Han’s voice transmission for the second time, Liu Rumei finally confirmed Su Han’s identity.

"Then come to my house!"

Liu Rumei struggled to her feet, leading the way ahead. As for the middle-aged woman, she believed Su Han could control her.

Su Han followed Liu Rumei to a shabby hut with a leaking roof and ventilated walls, inside there was only a broken bed and a leg-missing wooden table, extremely simple,

Su Han didn’t expect Liu Rumei to live so miserably, but not having experienced others’ hardships, he didn’t say much.

He brought the middle-aged woman along, told her to wait outside the door while he quickly took action, outlined a Formation Pattern, and set up a Glyph Secret warning Great Formation to prevent the upcoming conversation from being overheard.

"Are you really Su Han?"

Liu Rumei looked at the young man in front of her, still somewhat unwilling to believe.

The Su Han she knew was just a small prodigy, though with some talent, was not a monstrous genius. Being able to walk out of Qingmo Province was already extremely difficult, how could he have come to the Central Plains, and moreover entered the Liu Divine Void Realm?

Su Han didn’t say much, displaying Thousand Changes and Transformations to return to his original appearance.

Seeing the familiar face, aura, and those familiar eyes, Liu Rumei finally fully believed.

Because aside from her and Lu Yunxian, the entire Ancient Liu Family had no knowledge of Su Han, and indeed the whole Central Plains didn’t recognize this person.

"Elder Liu, long time no see, how did you become like this?"

Su Han reached out and grabbed, Formation Patterns flickered, and he quickly unlocked the Formation Pattern shackles, letting Liu Rumei regain her freedom. At the same time, he took out a drop of Life Spring Water and handed it to Liu Rumei.

Liu Rumei’s eyes were full of shock, her face filled with disbelief, feeling as if she was in a dream.

She realized Su Han’s aura was incredibly powerful, making her want to look up, having reached the level of a Semi-Saint.

Moreover, the Formation Pattern shackles on her were Supreme Grade Dao Artifacts, inscribed with a Sealing Formation. Su Han casually released the Formation Pattern without destroying the shackles.

And this drop of Life Spring Water, exuding a rich vitality, was inestimably valuable, yet it was given to her so casually.

All of this made Liu Rumei feel a sense of unreality, as if she were dreaming.

"I’m sorry, I apologize for looking down on you back then!"

After a long time, Liu Rumei took a deep breath, tremblingly got up, bowed to Su Han, and sincerely apologized.

Su Han did not avoid it, accepting her bow. Back then, he may not have noticed, but with his increased experience, he understood some of Liu Rumei’s little thoughts in the past.

However, this didn’t matter much to Su Han, after all, Fairy Sister Yun Xian indeed became stronger and had a better future. As for himself, he wasn’t trapped in the Eastern Region but came to the Central Plains, coming here.

"Let bygones be bygones, focus on healing first!"

Su Han didn’t say much, asked Liu Rumei to take the Life Spring Water to heal.

Liu Rumei’s injuries were severe, the whip lashes were only minor external wounds; the most serious were internal injuries. But in front of Life Spring Water, nothing was a problem. Her whole body radiated a clear light, full of vitality, rejuvenating.

Soon, Liu Rumei’s injuries were completely healed, even her wrinkled skin became rosier, and her white hair turned black again, making her appear ten years younger.

"Life Spring Water is indeed a supreme treasure for healing; just one drop restored me to my original state, ten years younger!"

Liu Rumei showed an expression of enjoyment, marveling at the Life Spring Water. She had only seen such a treasure but never taken it before, now thanks to Su Han’s kindness.

"Elder Liu, how did you become a prisoner?"

Su Han returned to the topic and directly asked.

"Ah, the past is too painful to recall!"

Liu Rumei sighed, but by this point, she saw no need to hide from Su Han anymore.

"I am a side branch disciple of the Liu Family and once had a conflict with a clan member. Later, to retaliate, she framed me, making me bear a false charge, and even sent people to hunt me down. I fled all the way and eventually reached the Seven Stars Sect."

"Now that clan member has broken through to become a saint and is the family’s Thirteenth Elder; it is harder for me to turn the tables than to climb to the heavens. She gives me trouble at every turn, leading to my current situation. The one outside is her daughter."

Liu Rumei spoke of her tragic experience. She wasn’t a main branch disciple, had average talent, was insignificant, and couldn’t fight against the Thirteenth Elder, which was why she never wanted to return to the Liu Family.

But for Lu Yunxian, she put down her own dignity, endured the humiliation and suffering of being tortured, returned to the Liu Family, and eventually ended up in the situation Su Han saw.

Thirteenth Elder!

Su Han’s eyes slightly narrowed, remembering the name. He couldn’t verify the grudges of the past, but since Liu Rumei had been kind to him and Lu Yunxian, naturally, he sided with Liu Rumei. At this moment, he already tagged the never-met Thirteenth Elder as an enemy.

"Elder Liu, I came this time to participate in the martial arts competition for marriage. I heard that Fairy Sister Yun Xian’s Origin Wound has not healed, requiring Yin and Yang Dual Cultivation to treat it. What’s going on? I want to know the truth!"

Su Han did not hesitate, quickly expressing his purpose.

He gazed keenly at Liu Rumei, feeling urgent in his heart.

What exactly is going on?
