Chapter 1494: Chapter 1207: Qingming (Part 2)

Looking at the currently thriving Qingming Palace, Su Yuan felt a deep sense of reflection.

Before heading to the Southern Continent, Su Yuan briefly stopped at Qingming Palace. Beyond this, it had been a long time since he visited this force he had founded.

Although the urgency of cultivation and busy affairs were reasons, what he had done for Qingming Palace was indeed limited.

The reason why Qingming Palace was running so smoothly now was more attributed to the meticulous maintenance by Yang Yifeng, Yang Aoshan, Situ Bai, Mo Fei, Li Su, and others.

At this moment, seeing the excited crowd around, Su Yuan decided to stay for a few days to understand the current situation of Qingming Palace and reward the members throughout the palace.

On this journey to the Southern Continent, the thing he lacked least was Star Cores, and Su Yuan had left quite a few Star Cores at each level.

With these Star Cores, elixirs like the Sun Spirit Pill, which use Star Cores as raw materials, could be mass-produced and distributed.

Besides this, before his departure, the Ten Thousand Sword Divine Sect and True Yang Sect, in their gratitude and after learning about Qingming Palace, gave Su Yuan a significant amount of resources needed for developing forces, including some Star Cards, Great Sun Silk, and other good things unique to the two sects.

With these resources, the strength of Qingming Palace would undoubtedly increase rapidly in the short term, which would not only help stabilize the western region but also allow better demon slaying and protection, gradually playing a significant role during the catastrophe...

After a long time, Su Yuan returned to the Qingming Main Hall.

At that moment, only a few core members like Mo Fei, Situ Bai, and Li Su were present.

"So, there are now more than twenty Burning Sun Experts within the palace?"

Yang Aoshan, dressed in an Array Master’s robe, nodded slightly: "It’s not just our Qingming Palace; in recent years, the number of Sun, Moon, and Star Level experts in various sects has significantly increased.

Firstly, because of Star Vein derivation, the Star Power Concentration within the entire Western Desert, especially within our Qingming Palace, has improved by two or three grades;

Secondly, Mo Fei, Teng Jinghua, and other elders have hunted quite a number of Star Cores, which were handed over to the Alchemy Hall to produce many Spirit Pills.

Thirdly, many experts from countries and forces like the Great Flame and Huo Luo were attracted to our Qingming Palace."

Yang Aoshan opened the document and spoke slowly, clearly and in order, informing Su Yuan of the developments in all aspects of Qingming Palace over the past few years.

It wasn’t just about the number and strength of the members, but also the operation of the Four Halls of Alchemy, Artifact, Array Talisman, and Device, and the cooperation and exchanges between Qingming Palace and other forces... especially with the Great Flame.

It’s said that previously the Demon Capital Academy had contacted Qingming Palace to organize student practical training in the Western Desert.

Knowing it’s Su Yuan’s alma mater, Qingming Palace naturally agreed readily, and Teng Jinghua was responsible for the entire process, which ended successfully, and both parties took this opportunity to reach several follow-up collaborations.

In fact, even excluding Su Yuan, Qingming Palace now with Yang Yifeng, Mo Fei, who is about to break through to King Level, and Antonios, plus the Four Halls of Alchemy, Artifact, Array Talisman, and Device, has clearly become a significant King Level force!

"In terms of Star Devices, the Artifact Hall produces an average of 3 Epic Star Artifacts and 28 Master Star Artifacts per month, selling them to neighboring countries, forces, and Loose Cultivators..."

"Hmm... that’s all."

Yang Aoshan let out a small sigh of relief, put down the documents, and looked up at Su Yuan on the main seat.

"Good." Su Yuan nodded slightly, having nearly grasped the situation in Qingming Palace through Yang Aoshan’s report.

Nearby, Ashley, who was also listening, praised aloud, "As expected of Master Yang, so clear and organized, even better than what I did at the beginning."

Yang Aoshan looked at Ashley and shook her head with a smile, "I can only summarize things. When it comes to managing Qingming Palace, I’m still not as good as Manager Ai."

Originally, Qingming Palace was mainly managed by Ashley.

However, Ashley was often kept by Su Yuan’s side due to her prophetic abilities.

Among the elders of Qingming Palace, Yang Yifeng didn’t manage things much, Mo Fei wasn’t cut out for management, and Antonios had been in retreat for a long time, so most of the affairs of Qingming Palace were handled on behalf by Yang Aoshan.

Ashley vaguely heard a hint of envy and loss in Yang Aoshan’s words, and unexpectedly, a slight sense of joy arose in her heart~

Su Yuan chatted with everyone for a while longer and gave the Space Rings filled with various resources and treasures to Yang Yifeng, Situ Bai, and others as needed.

Afterward, everyone gradually departed one by one.

In the end, only Mo Fei remained, kneeling on one knee in front of Su Yuan with a mix of solemnity and excitement: "Master!"

Looking at Mo Fei kneeling in front of him, Su Yuan leaned forward slightly and gently patted his lowered head.

"Thank you for your hard work, always guarding Qingming Palace."

Su Yuan could sense that Mo Fei had actually been able to attempt a breakthrough long ago.

However, the time needed to break through to King Level could vary, and given the numerous changes due to the catastrophe now, Mo Fei wanted to keep an eye on Qingming Palace for Su Yuan and didn’t dare to make a breakthrough frivolously, allowing Antonios to go ahead with the opportunity.

His actions were really somewhat clumsy...

"Squeak!" Ruan Ruan also appeared, happily jumping onto Mo Fei’s shoulder, "Thank you, Little Mo!"

Mo Fei replied firmly, "Master, it’s what Mo Fei should do!"

Su Yuan nodded slightly and said, "There are still Dragon Veins within the Qingming Realm, so from now on, prepare for your breakthrough there."

"Yes, Master!"

Excitement filled Mo Fei’s eyes, not because of breaking through to King Level, but because by staying in the Qingming Realm, he could be like Ruan Ruan and return to his master’s side.

Su Yuan waved his hand, collecting both Mo Fei and Ruan Ruan into the Qingming Realm.

In the large and slightly luxurious Qingming Palace, only Su Yuan was left for a moment.

As for Ashley, after hearing Yang Aoshan’s report, she also went with Li Su to conduct inspections one by one.

However, not long after, there seemed to be some movement at the door of the Qingming Main Hall.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

A gentle knocking sound rang out.

Su Yuan already knew who it was and smiled, "Come in."

Accompanied by light and somewhat uneasy footsteps, Yang Aoshan, already changed into a new outfit, walked in.

The elegant silk blouse, decorated with a sweet purple bow at the front, and the black pencil skirt enveloping her slender legs, which just slightly revealed a little of the fair calves.

And in her hands, she clutched a thick stack of Array Dao Notes.

Tall, elegant, beautiful, and intellectual, she was the epitome of a cultivated and well-bred lady at a glance.

"Su Yuan, recently, I’ve had some issues with my studies in the Array Path that I’d like to discuss with you."

Yang Aoshan looked up at Su Yuan briefly and then slightly lowered her head again, with a downward gaze showing a bit of nervousness and apprehension.

"I came over now to ask if..."

Before she could finish, Yang Aoshan was already pulled into an embrace by someone, her gaze quivering, her face turning red as she looked at the silver-haired, silver-eyed elegant young man in front of her.

Su Yuan’s lips slightly curved into a smile, his hands moving down to clutch firmly at the rounded shape beneath the black skirt.

"Ah?!"

Yang Aoshan couldn’t help but utter a low cry, her body instantly stiffened, and her elegant and intellectual face visibly turned red and hot, yet she did not resist.

"Su, Su Yuan..."

Yang Aoshan’s originally clear voice now had a bit of softness.

Unexpectedly, Su Yuan suddenly let go of Yang Aoshan, picking up the scattered Array Dao Notes from the floor one by one.

Yang Aoshan regained her senses, clutching her chest, where her heart was pounding violently like a drum, her previously stiff body now feeling a bit weak, and her mind somewhat dazed.

By then, Su Yuan had tidied up the notes, approached Yang Aoshan, and handed them to her, saying, "It seems a bit late now."

"Is it?" Yang Aoshan felt a slight loss in her heart, turned to check the time, and found that it was indeed almost nine o’clock.

Yang Aoshan gripped the notes tightly, hesitated a little, and asked, "If that’s the case, then maybe, next time I’ll..."

"Then tonight, why don’t you stay here... Aoshan?"

Yang Aoshan’s pupils trembled, her lips parted slightly as she looked at Su Yuan, who was smiling in front of her, only to feel the world becoming increasingly surreal...

One second, two seconds, ten seconds...

A moment later, a soft voice escaped from Yang Aoshan.

"Mm..."

The lights in the Qingming Main Hall gradually dimmed, only the sounds of their discussion about arrays resonating throughout the spacious hall through the night...
