Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal

After burying Su Huaifeng, he patted his hands and headed toward the exit of the cemetery.

Hundreds of people around him made way, forming a clear path.

As Alkaid passed by Zhang Ya, she couldn't help but call out, "Xiaoguang..."

Alkaid glanced at her but did not stop.

During this time, as the Su Family gradually shifted its focus to Dayu Capital, and there was even a trend to continue moving toward Red Star Capital, they had let go of their interests in Tian Nan, handing them all over to Zhang Tianji and the Zhang Family behind him.

If the Zhang Family keeps up this trend...

Advancing to the rank of Noble Families is not a vain hope.

But if they want to step out of Tian Nan Province...

The current foundation of the Zhang Family is clearly not enough unless they rely on outside help.

However, as Alkaid strode away without hesitation, everyone realized in their hearts.

Controlling Tian Nan Province should be the limit for the Zhang Family.

Their favors had been used up to this point.

Unless the Zhang Family cultivates some exceptionally talented individuals internally, awakening the Su Family's interest to give them a boost again, otherwise...

Without sufficient strength of their own, they would find it difficult to keep up with the Su Family and step out of Tian Nan solely based on their relationship.

"Alkaid..."

Watching Su Alkaid walk toward the car parked at the entrance of the cemetery, Zhang Ya couldn't help but call out again.

Zhang Tianji stepped forward to stop her, shaking his head at her.

Zhang Ya couldn't understand.

Why could the Su Family, which she wasn't that close to, cling to Alkaid and thrive, while she, his biological mother, was just fobbed off with Tian Nan Province!

It's unfair!

It was too unfair!

"How could he..."

"Enough!"

Zhang Tianji snapped, his heavy tone immediately silencing Zhang Ya.

It left the wanting-to-chase-after Zhang Ya frozen in place.

Over the years, he had clearly understood how his sister interacted with Alkaid, that kind of crazy possessiveness...

That Alkaid hadn't been driven to jump off a building and commit suicide, was a testament to his exceptional temperament.

Now that Su Alkaid had achieved success and fame, how could he agree to be manipulated by her again.

That they entrusted Tian Nan Province to their Zhang Family, was probably out of consideration for his face.

Otherwise...

The two parties had become strangers the moment Alkaid became a Grandmaster.

Just like he left home and never went to see Zhang Ya of his own accord after coming of age.

"Let it be."

Zhang Tianji said.

...

The funeral ended.

The core members of the Su Family had almost completely withdrawn from Tian Nan.

Even Su Yaoqin and Su Yaoshuang had processed their school transfers and followed to Dayu Capital.

As for Bu Zhou Group...

They hired professional managers to run it.

According to Alkaid's wishes, Su Chiming placed someone named Zhang Qing in charge of financial audits.

He also supervised the normal operations of Bu Zhou Group.

After all these affairs, both big and small, were settled, half a month had passed.

...

Of course, those who arrived after half a month were Su Yaoqin, Su Yaoshuang, and Su Yaoyu, who was being groomed as Lin Xia's assistant.

Alkaid and Su Yaoxue had already returned to You Long Creek Villa ten days earlier.

For some reason, Su Chiming did not let them stay in the Royal Palace after they came back; instead, he arranged for them to stay on Emperor Yu's Mountain.

After half a year of construction, Emperor Yu's Mountain was already heavily guarded.

Not only had the whole mountain become private property, closed to the public, but there were also a large number of security personnel patrolling the outside.

At the foot of the mountain, not far away, was stationed an elite division of over ten thousand men.

Inside, there were jet fighters, anti-aircraft weapons, and everything one could need for defense.

As for the mountain itself, it had also undergone extensive development and construction, with increased accessibility to and from the mountain, and the lofts and villas on the mountain had greatly improved.

It was foreseeable that, with another year or two of development, Emperor Yu's Mountain would truly possess the grandeur of a sacred training ground.

...

In a recently constructed villa over four hundred meters away from where Alkaid lived in You Long Residence.

Su Yaoxue was given a day off by Alkaid and gathered with the recently arrived Su Yaoyu, Su Yaoshuang, and Su Yaoqin in the sunroom on the top floor.

At the moment, the four of them were casually chatting in the sunroom.

After glancing toward You Long Creek, Su Yaoqin turned enviously to Su Yaoxue, who was talking with Su Yaoyu, and said, "Second Sister, have you lived like this for the past few months? That's really courageous."

Su Yaoxue was perplexed for a moment.

But it was Su Yaoshuang who responded, "Sister has always been quite brave."

While talking, she took another photo of Su Yaoxue, who looked strikingly valiant at the moment.

As for self-portraits...

She had been taking them for half an hour already.

Emperor Yu's Mountain.

It's currently the hottest, most mysterious place in the outside world, with countless people taking pride in being able to enter.

Now, she could not only come to Emperor Yu's Mountain, but she also had her own villa there.

She could already foresee the sensation her photos, tagged with the location of Emperor Yu's Mountain, would cause when she posted them on social media.

But then again...

Lately, no one in her social circle was arguing with her anymore, and her interest in posting photos...

Seemed to no longer come with the same eager anticipation for others' comments and likes as before.

"What's all this about courage or lack thereof? What are you talking about?"

Su Yaoxue turned and asked.

"It's about Third Brother."

Su Yaoqin leaned in curiously, "Second Sister, you've been living with Third Brother for the past half a year, weren't you scared?"

Hearing Su Yaoqin's words, Su Yaoxue didn't catch on for a moment, but then realizing something, she suddenly asked, "Why would you be afraid of Alkaid?"

"Him? Isn't he scary?"
