2412 A Familiar Encounter
Just as the words left Song Shuhang’s lips, the lamia, who had gone home to recharge, seized the opportunity and leaped into view.
Her radiant form materialized on Song Shuhang’s left side, and she began to sing, “At the tender age of eighteen…”
“In the blink of an eye!” Song Shuhang waved his sleeve, deftly tucking away the lamia.
His sleeve contained a vast universe. It was a handy trick for daily life.
However, right after he tucked away the virtuous lamia, Fairy Creation emerged once more while singing, “Please, enlighten me~”
As she finished her line, she suddenly sensed that something was amiss. Her opponent, the virtuous lamia, who had appeared before her, had vanished…
Fairy Creation lowered her gaze and glanced at the raised edge of Song Shuhang’s sleeve while comprehending the situation.
“Farewell!” Fairy Creation saluted the gathering of beings.
With that, she leaped into Song Shuhang’s sleeve on her own accord.
Song Shuhang extended his hand and lightly tapped his chest—this scene bore a striking resemblance to something he had seen before. Senior Three-Eyed’s enormous eye butler had similarly taken the initiative to jump onto a grill and sprinkle cumin on himself after stabbing Senior Three-Eyed’s heart.
No, he couldn’t afford to indulge Fairy Creation and the virtuous lamia any longer. Allowing them to evolve further would turn today’s Senior Three-Eyed into his future self.
Senior Three-Eyed only had a single eyeball as his butler, but he had two Fairies accompanying him, not to mention a black-skinned Soft Feather currently under training, and Scarlet Heaven Sword, who persistently attempted to pierce his heart.
The issue was, how could he halt the progress of the lamia and Fairy Creation?
These two fairies were truly impeccable women, and Song Shuhang lacked the means to ‘not indulge’ them.
Contemplating this, Profound Sage Tyrannical Song raised his head and let out a deep sigh.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the corner of the Su Clan elder’s mouth, who had suddenly appeared, twitched uncontrollably.
Profound Sage Tyrannical Song alone was a spectacle.
At this moment, Pavilion Master Chu, perched atop Song Shuhang’s head, swiveled to face the figure in front of her and inquired, “Fellow Daoist, how should I address you?”
Pavilion Master Chu could still be relied upon in critical moments. Indeed, her experience as the master of a pavilion had instilled her with a professional demeanor in important situations!
The Su Clan elder across from her smiled faintly while gesturing to his throat, then waved his hand.
“Can’t speak?” Daoist Stone Tablet asked, puzzled.
“Is your throat injured?” The hamster chimed in.
“Silent Meditation?” Lady Onion ventured.
The Su Clan elder across from them nodded slightly.
Curiously, Black-Skinned Soft Feather asked, “If it’s not Silent Meditation, couldn’t Senior transmit secret sounds?”
Using his spiritual energy as a pen, the Su Clan elder inscribed in the air, ‘Lately, I’ve been experimenting with a secret technique. It is one related to spiritual energy and sound waves.’
“I see,” Daoist Stone Tablet said in understanding. “Then, how should we address you, Fellow Daoist?”
The Su Clan elder produced a spirit tablet from his belongings.
On it were the words ‘Ancestor Su Clan’s Knot’.
The Su Clan elder wore a bright smile as he indicated the memorial tablet and then himself.
He was the knot from the Su Clan engraved on the spirit tablet!
“So, you’re Fellow Daoist Su Clan’s Knot. I’ve heard much about you,” Pavilion Master Chu said while adopting an adult’s polite tone.
“!!!” When Song Shuhang noticed that this Su Clan elder carried his own spirit tablet, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
“So, you’re Senior Knot!” he exclaimed.
Su Clan’s Knot was confused
“Senior, when I saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity. We must have something in common.”
Su Shi’s Knot was alarmed.
“Senior, look.” Song Shuhang reached out and patted Daoist Stone Tablet’s body to reveal its original form.
A massive stone tablet stood upright.
Engraved on it were the words: ‘Song Shuhang’s Tomb’. However, Senior White Two’s signature had been concealed. That signature possessed tremendous power, and if it were to manifest openly within the Su Clan, it might attract the malevolent energies of the Netherworld and cause needless trouble.
One carried a spirit tablet, the other a tombstone.
This was destiny.
“Hahaha~” Su Clan’s Knot inscribed a string of laughter in the air.
Human relationships were complex, yet sometimes remarkably simple. A peculiar commonality could foster increased affinity between individuals.
“I’ve nearly reached the crucial stage of my research on this secret technique. If you and the fairies are interested, why not accompany me? I’ll explain this secret technique to you. If we’re destined, perhaps you and the fairies will gain something from it,” Su Clan’s Knot was in high spirits. He not only overlooked Song Shuhang and the others’ intrusion into the formation but also extended an invitation for them to witness his creation of the secret technique.
“Senior Knot… would this be appropriate? After all, every secret technique is exceedingly valuable,” Song Shuhang offered politely.
“Don’t be so formal. I had originally intended to unveil this secret technique at the Spirit River Su Clan’s annual gathering. Consider it a New Year’s gift from me, an old-timer, to the younger generation,” Su Clan’s Knot wrote in the air.
“Then, we’ll have to trouble you,” Song Shuhang replied with a smile. He possessed fewer than twenty secret techniques in total, a stark contrast to his Eighth Stage Profound Sage status.
It was as though he was dragging down the overall proficiency level of an Eighth Stage Profound Sage.
To become a qualified senior, Song Shuhang wouldn’t pass up the opportunity to acquire a powerful secret technique. Even if he couldn’t master it personally, he could keep it to enrich his ‘knowledge repository.’ In the future, with Senior Knot’s permission, he could pass the secret technique on to his disciples.
“No, I suddenly recalled that Young Friend Tyrannical Song, you’re not from the Spirit River Su Clan,” Su Clan’s Knot abruptly wrote in the air.
Song Shuhang was at a loss for words.
Su Clan’s Knot sported a mischievous grin. “Oh, never mind.”
Mid-sentence, Knot wiped away his words.
Then, he rewrote: “I heard that you possess a unique technique for dealing with ‘inner demons’? I have a peculiar hobby in life. I enjoy consuming unusual entities, and among them, the flavor of inner demons suits my palate the most.”
Black-Skinned Soft Feather was so frightened that she took refuge in Song Shuhang’s shadow. She had felt uneasy since entering this place, and now it seemed that the source of her unease was the Su Clan’s ancestor.
“How did you know that I have the ability to deal with inner demons?” Song Shuhang asked, intrigued.
“I heard it from a friend. We old folks also communicate privately. We aren’t all so isolated from the world,” Su Clan’s Knot wrote in the air. “So, can I exchange my secret technique for the Inner Demon Set?”
“Deal,” Song Shuhang said with a smile. In his Inner World, he still had some fresh ‘inner demon ingredients’ that he had extracted and sealed from the bodies of the two juniors.
“Please come in. In fact, the secret technique I’m about to successfully research is highly suitable for Profound Sage Lectures. It allows the caster and the recipient to experience the same feelings and immerse themselves in the same experiences. Young Friend Tyrannical Song, you’ll surely appreciate it.”
Young Friend Tyrannical Song’s lectures were clearly meant to blaze his own path.
If he could master this secret technique, he would undoubtedly astonish all cultivators in the universe during his next Profound Sage Lecture.
