Double Cultivation
come on, tell me more about him
Although Su Yang had already seen something strange when the maids at the Nine Spring Hall reacted to his surname, he did not really notice it, either, because he was not the only person in this world with the surname Su.
However, when Zhu Mengyi also reacted strangely to his name, even revealing his surprise, Su Yang knew that something was wrong.
Zhu Mengyi continued to stare at Su Yang with a shocked expression. He can't believe it. He's Su Yang? The husband who was called the immortal elf Su Yue? Didn't the mother say that she was her son?
"Maybe .." Zhu Mengyi brought up his own logical reasoning.
"Maybe Su Yang was the son of the Eternal Fairy Yue Su all along, but she disguised him as her husband for whatever reason!" he wonders.
"There's only one way to confirm that!" he said in his heart
"Umm ... are you, by any chance, the son of the immortal elf Su Yue?" he asked her with a hopeful expression, it seemed like he wanted to be surprised.
"Eternal Princess Su Yue?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow at that name.
He had never heard of such a person in his entire life, yet how could he be this person's child?
"Eh?"
Seeing Su Yang's confused expression, the smile on Zhu Mengyi's face slowly disappeared.
"You aren't?" he muttered in a low-spirit voice.
"Unfortunately no," Su Yang shook his head.
"It can't be .. if he's not his son, then how do we explain otherworldly techniques and unknown backgrounds?"
Zhu Mengyi could not wrap this in her head.
Then, another thought appeared in his head.
"What if he really is his son but won't admit it? The Eternal Fairy Su Yue was very popular, It wouldn't be strange if she just tried to avoid the spotlight."
"This Immortal Princess Su Yue.. can you tell me more about her?" Su Yang suddenly asked her with a mysterious feeling to her voice.
"Um... sure …?"
Thus, Zhu Mengyi began to babble to Su Yang, this legend of the Eternal Fairy Su Yue without restraint, even praising her in every sentence.
"The first time I actually met him was during his stay at the Academy four seasons. Her appearance was extremely beautiful, and her unique color of hair and crystal eyes exuded an otherworldly feeling, almost like she was born with stars and the moon. During these few days in this place, I managed to get her approval to call her big sister, and it was still one of my greatest achievements to date. "
Zhu Mengyi was bragging about such things with her head pointed at the ceiling.
"A mysterious Immortal who appeared one day all of a sudden? An unparalleled beauty? She has silver hair and silver eyes? an incomprehensible cultivation? An unknown background? Like someone born on the moon?"
Su Yang almost exploded when Zhu Mengyi described Qiuyue.
"So this is what he's doing unsupervised, huh? Pull over!" he thinks to himself.
"Interesting! How exciting! Tell me more about him!" Su Yang smiled.
Zhu Mengyi was so engrossed in her own story that she forgot about Su Yang's almost confirmed identity as the son of the immortal elf Su Yue and kept raving about all the things that the public knew about her. She clearly greatly admired the Eternal Fairy Su Yue.
But unfortunately, little did he know that he was messing with the individuals he admired by telling these stories to Su Yang!
Half an hour later, when Zhu Mengyi ran out of all her stories, she said, "She is basically a true Goddess in the eyes of many people you know. However, he's been missing for some time now."
"This girl, trying to hide all this from me …"
"Haha!" Su Yang could no longer hold back his laughter and laughed out loud.
"W-Is there something wrong?" Surprised by his sudden laughter, Zhu Mengyi asked him.
"No, nothing's wrong." Su Yang wiped away the teardrops from his eyes and said, " Anyway, let's continue the lecture."
"Now that you have the right technique, I will have you master the Earth Progress Pill by the end of this week!"
"This week's end ?! But it's in three days!" he exclaimed.
There was no way for him to cultivate this profound technique and refine the Earth Progress Pill at the same time even if he was granted ten years, let alone in three days!
"That's why you have to stop wasting time" he continued.
"Fix your position and start developing the technique I just gave you, but this time, I will also help you" Su Yang said
Zhu Mengyi nodded and sat in a lotus position and closed her eyes to cultivate.
Su Yang walked in front of him and also sat down. He then began to read the techniques, even explaining every little information about the techniques to him as they progressed.
Since Su Yang made it very easy for him to grasp even though the technique itself required deep understanding, Zhu Mengyi was able to grasp the technique at a level that could be considered heaven-defying.
The two sat there, face to face, all day without moving an inch, almost like they were turned into stone statues.
At the end of the day, Zhu Mengyi was almost able to grasp the entire technique, something she thought was impossible even with the help of Su Yang.
He looked at her with a flabbergasted expression, wondering to himself what would happen to their Sect if he remained here as a teacher.
He could tell from the way he had lectured him that he certainly had experience as a teacher, yet he was obviously very young, perhaps even younger than him.
It was almost like he had his own students at one point, and he couldn't help but wonder what they would be like if it were true.
And if he agreed to become a four-season Academy teacher, would all of their students become experts in the Dao of Alchemy overnight? What would the world be like if it really happened?
"Let's continue after a small break," Su Yang suddenly said to him.
"Do whatever you want for the next two hours. We will continue our session at that time" he continued.
"Yes!" Zhu Mengyi said, her eyes filled with a desire to learn.
