The God of Sky and Earth

Chapter 708: The Mysterious Elder

"Senior, have I passed the test?"

Su Yi looked at Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan, who still appeared quite surprised. Timidly, he asked with a hint of unease, uncertain if he had passed the test.

Upon hearing this, Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan finally regained her senses. She exchanged glances with Deputy Palace Master Yan Lu and Deputy Palace Master Yun Ding, and then looked back at Su Yi. The shock in her eyes remained for a while without subsiding as she said, "Of course, you have passed the test. However, your soul's quality is..."

"What's wrong?" Su Yi's heart tightened, and he looked at Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan, wondering if there was something wrong with his soul.

"To be honest, I have never seen a soul of such extraordinary quality before in my entire life. The Soul Measuring Yuan Stones in the Yutian Palace of Central Region can only measure souls up to a certain level, and it seems that they might struggle to handle the caliber of your soul."

Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan's face was filled with both shock and a hint of bitterness. This kind of soul caliber was beyond anything she had ever seen before. And now, even the Soul Measuring Yuan Stones had shattered, making it truly difficult to determine the level of this soul's quality.

Upon hearing this, Su Yi's face was suddenly filled with surprise, and he asked Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan, "Senior, did I actually pass the test or not?"

"Of course, they passed, but..."

Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan smiled bitterly, hesitated for a moment, and looked at Su Yi with a gentle expression. She said, "However, I truly can't definitively say to which extent this soul quality has reached. Perhaps there is someone who can tell you. Please follow me."

"Where are we going?"

Su Yi was also helpless. He never expected that within the Yutian Palace, they couldn't determine the extent of his soul quality.

"Don't worry, you'll find out once you follow me," Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan reassured.

"Go ahead, I'll wait here for you," the shock on Xi Wuqing's face gradually subsided, and upon seeing this, he spoke to Su Yi.

"Okay."

Upon hearing this, Su Yi nodded at Xi Wuqing before responding to Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan. This was one of the branch palaces of the Yutian Palace. Judging from the Deputy Palace Master's attitude, the Yutian Palace shouldn't give them a hard time, nor did they have any grievances with the Yutian Palace before.

Seeing this, Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan ignored the others and took Su Yi, leaving the hall.

"This..." 𝗳r𝚎𝐞w𝐞𝚋𝗻𝗼vel.𝗰o𝐦

Bai Mingshan, Jian Wannian, and Zhao Chuannan were dumbfounded. They were not fools, how could they not see the Yutian Palace's attitude towards Su Yi? It seemed that after Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan took the boy away, there must be something they wanted to discuss privately. Perhaps the Yutian Palace was trying to win over the boy directly.

Looking at the expressions on Jian Wannian's face and others, Xi Wuqing glanced lightly, with a faint smile on his lips. He called out to the Green Emperor and said, "Let's go, let's explore around. We'll wait for that boy outside."

"Yes."

The Green Emperor nodded, his face filled with pride. Then, the two of them turned around with their hands behind their backs and left directly.

Bai Mingshan, the expression on Jian Wannian's face didn't look good. His eyes twitched at the corners, especially Jian Wannian, whose face was filled with gloom.

...

Su Yi followed closely by Guan Lan, the Deputy Palace Master, as they walked from the testing hall to the inner court. Not knowing where they were going, Su Yi could only continue closely behind.

"I'm not sure which esteemed master Yi Su learned from, to be honest. I have some knowledge about the sects in the Central Region, but I must admit that I am not familiar with the Overlord Sect. Could it be that the Overlord Sect is not located in the Central Region?" Along the way, Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan broke the silence between the two and curiously asked Su Yi.

"Replying to the senior, the disciple's master has always lived in seclusion in the mountains and the Overlord Sect is just a small gate hidden in the wilderness, never appearing in the world, so the senior is unaware."

Su Yi replied, also choosing his words carefully, saying that he had a master supporting him from behind, which made him feel like he had someone backing him up.

"Is it like this..."

Guan Lan, the Deputy Palace Master, felt a flicker of doubt in his eyes, but he didn't show it. He smiled slightly and said to Su Yi, "No need to be so polite in the future. I am a bit older than you, so if you think highly of me, just call me 'brother'."

"I dare not."

Su Yi forced a smile. This was the respected Deputy Palace Master of the Yutian Palace in the Central Region. Judging by the attitudes of Jian Wannian, Bai Mingshan, and others, he was an intimidating powerhouse, undoubtedly a formidable figure of great significance. It wouldn't be wise for him to be too casual.

"No need to be polite, just call me 'brother' from now on. Young brother, you have extraordinary talent, and your future is boundless. It won't be long before I can benefit from your brilliance," smiled Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan. His expression was gentle, clearly trying to build a relationship. With his discerning eyes, how could he not see the limitless potential of this young man? Given time, he would surely rise to great heights in the world.

"This..."

Su Yi felt helpless. Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan had already gone this far in his words. If he were to refuse again, it would seem inappropriate. Su Yi sighed bitterly and forced a smile, then generously said, "In that case, I cannot be impolite. From now on, I will address you as senior brother Guan Lan."

"Good, this also appears friendly," Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan chuckled.

Su Yi smiled. Inside the Central Region, with no one behind him, it was a good thing to be able to establish some relationship with Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan.

"Okay, we're almost there. Inside, someone is waiting for the little brother. Perhaps, with the little brother's soul quality, the people inside will have a more accurate judgment."

As they spoke, ahead of them, a very peaceful and quaint little courtyard appeared. Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan pointed towards the courtyard and said to Su Yi, "There are already people waiting inside."

"May I ask, older brother Guan Lan, who is inside?"

Su Yi was very puzzled, not knowing who could be inside. Judging from Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan's attitude, it seemed that the person inside held a much higher status than Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan.

"Go inside, and you will find out."

Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan smiled faintly, reassuring Su Yi not to worry, and then turned and left.

Su Yi was surprised, but Yutian Palace didn't seem like it wanted to cause trouble for him. Without hesitation, Su Yi walked into the small courtyard.

"Come in, please."

As Su Yi stepped into the courtyard, an ancient voice immediately reached his ears.

Su Yi's eyes widened, and there was no doubt in his mind that inside this small courtyard stood an absolute powerhouse.

In the quiet little courtyard, everything was simple and showed signs of age.

Inside the courtyard, Su Yi walked along a short corridor and arrived at a small hall.

In the small hall, an elderly figure had been waiting. He looked at Su Yi with a slight smile and said, "I never expected that this time in the Central Region's Yutian Palace, we could detect such an extraordinary soul."

Following the sound, Su Yi's gaze fell upon the elderly figure. He was a kind-faced old man, with a weathered appearance but a lively spirit. His face even had a healthy flush to it. His silver-white hair was tied up in a bun, and he wore a grey robe. He appeared to be in his seventies or eighties. With smiling eyes, he looked at Su Yi in a gentle and kind manner, just like a friendly neighbor, making people feel comfortable and close to him.
