Daqing: Immortality begins with taking Fan Xian as your disciple!

Hopefully, what Young Master Su said was just a joke.

Su Yu raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Others might not understand.

"Miss Lili will definitely understand."

Su Yu noticed Si Lili's panic.

Unexpectedly, his casual question startled the girl in front of him.

However, since the topic has been brought up, let's discuss it openly and honestly.

With Su Yu's current strength, he can easily solve the problem of a weak woman.

That's as simple as drinking water or eating.

However, based on the principle of mutual benefit in all things.

Su Yu still believes that it's better to teach someone how to fish than to give them a fish.

Before Si Lili could ask anything further...

Su Yu suddenly smiled and then asked.

“Miss Lili, now that you know who I am…”

"Are you aware of my involvement in founding the academy?"

Si Lili was slightly taken aback.

They haven't yet detached themselves from the previous question.

Upon hearing this question, I was momentarily at a loss for words.

He just looked blank and nodded subconsciously in response.

"Yes, Lili has heard of it."

With such a talented young man, he should not become the tutor of the crown prince, but rather a teacher to all the people of the world.

It had already reached Zuixianju through several officials.

Si Lili was naturally aware of this.

I heard that the academy in the suburbs of Beijing is under construction.

Many people in Kyoto must be going to study at the academies nestled among the mountains and rivers.

Si Lili just didn't understand.

Why did Young Master Su suddenly bring up the academy?

Su Yu glanced at the frail woman in front of him, then suddenly became serious.

"Survival is difficult in chaotic times, and women are like duckweed."

"Seeking protection from others is also giving them a handle to use against you."

"It would be better to learn to wield a long sword, to protect yourself and your family."

After saying that, Su Yu smiled gently.

"Miss Lili, come to the academy."

Logically speaking, Su Yu shouldn't be involved in student recruitment.

However, this excludes those who are destined to be together.

Su Yu has always cherished and loved flowers.

Such a beautiful woman should be kept by one's side as soon as possible.

Si Lili looked blank for a long time.

Young Master Su's questions, one after another, had already left her dizzy.

The line I just uttered, 'You are such a beautiful woman, why did you become a thief?'

She was already terrified and completely bewildered by the questions.

There wasn't time to think about it further.

Young Master Su then asked her if she wanted to enter the academy.

Si Lili was completely bewildered.

She smiled slightly, poured a cup of tea, and respectfully handed it to her.

"Young Master Su, please have some tea first."

"Let me think it over and then give you an answer, young master."

But Su Yu accepted the tea, nodded, and smiled.

He then calmly and leisurely sipped his tea.

After a while, Si Lili calmed down and her mind became peaceful.

After carefully considering Su Gongzi's words, he understood.

Young Master Su must have known about her identity as a spy from an enemy country.

But the young master meant no harm; otherwise, he would already be in prison.

Although Si Lili is a woman, she has no particular strengths to make a living.

But he had a life of wandering and dependence on others since childhood.

It also honed her incredibly keen ability to read people's expressions and moods.

She could clearly sense that Young Master Su had no ill intentions towards her; on the contrary, he seemed to pity her greatly.

Si Lili didn't understand why the young master Su in front of her knew her so well.

But those few lines conveyed the difficulty of survival, the fragility of life like duckweed.

Seeking protection from others gives them leverage over you.

It was incredibly precise and struck a chord deep within her.

She never believed that there was such a thing as true empathy in this world.

But at this moment, she truly felt something she had never felt before.

The feeling of being understood, cherished, and respected.

As for what Young Master Su said, entering the academy would teach him how to protect himself.

Si Lili still had doubts in her heart, but she was also beginning to waver.

She pondered for a moment, then asked curiously.

"May I ask, Young Master Su, what does your academy teach?"

Si Lili's past experiences have taught her that she cannot easily trust anyone.

Even though this young master Su seemed to have no intention of harming her.

Moreover, Si Lili was somewhat confused.

How can the academy teach her to protect herself?

She was neither a man nor did she take the imperial examinations.

Moreover, he was a person of lowly status.

How can one gain admission to the academy?

Moreover, how can one protect oneself by studying?

This is what people have said since ancient times.

Useless is a scholar.

Of course, this Young Master Su is an exception, after all, he is still the Sword God of Nanqing.

37 Could it be that Young Master Su intends to teach people how to use swords at the academy?

There seems to be no precedent for this.

Si Lili shook her head, feeling very confused.

However, doubts remain.

It is said that they do not easily trust people.

Deep down, Si Lili was still wavering.

That's why I couldn't help but ask this question.

Su Yu took a sip of tea and replied casually.

"Literature, martial arts, immortality techniques, mechanisms, chess, poisoning, calligraphy, painting, assassination techniques..."

Si Lili was taken aback upon hearing this, then covered her mouth and smiled sweetly.

She just felt that Young Master Su was teasing her.

Where else can you find an academy that teaches such complex and... appalling things?

Poisoning and murder—are these things that can be taught openly?

Furthermore, the so-called "immortal arts" are even more absurd.

Aside from temples, there are said to be secret methods that can lead to becoming a grandmaster.

There are no magical arts here; I've never heard of them.

However, Si Lili didn't really believe these things.

But I do find Mr. Su's words very humorous.

It doesn't quite match his image, but that makes it even more interesting.

For some reason, I felt a certain way towards this young master Su.

Si Lili just felt a sense of closeness for no apparent reason.
