Kapitel 32: Chapter 32: Chu Nan's Past
Seeing their Ancestor take action, the Blood Refining Hall Master instructed the elders and attendants behind him to start as well.
Blood Ancestor took the lead, charging into the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce. He struck first, swiftly killing two guards at the entrance. Witnessing the violence, the other patrons hurriedly fled the chamber of commerce, knowing when to prioritize their lives.
Urgent matters took precedence, and Blood Ancestor paid little attention to this minor disturbance. Ahead of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce lay the shops, while the auction area was located at the rear.
Displayed on the shelves were numerous precious spiritual herbs, pills, and weapons. The members of Blood Refining Hall, being ruthless characters, naturally wouldn't let such treasures slip by. They collected them into their storage rings. After all, even mosquitoes were still flesh!
As for Blood Ancestor and the elders of Blood Refining Hall, they rushed into the auction area at the back.
"Enough!" A furious shout resounded from the top floor.
Under this voice, everyone stopped their movements, including Blood Ancestor.
Spatial power surged, and Su Xing'er appeared before Blood Ancestor.
"Spatial… spatial power." Seeing someone use spatial power, Blood Ancestor couldn't help but shiver. How could there be such a powerful expert in this place? It must be a fake; they must all be fakes.
As he spoke, he tried to attack Su Xing'er. However, as he got closer, he suddenly halted. He couldn't approach Su Xing'er even a step.
Su Xing'er raised her hand and directly pulled the Hall Master and the elders of Blood Refining Hall into a spatial rift, allowing spatial power to tear them apart.
Silence fell upon the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.
Blood Ancestor swallowed nervously. Who was this formidable figure? A master of the Enlightenment Realm, for sure!
"Forgive me, senior." Blood Ancestor was flexible, knowing he couldn't defeat his opponent. He immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
Su Xing'er paid no attention to Blood Ancestor's pleas. She directly used spatial power to lock him in place, and in an instant, she brought him to the top floor.
On the top floor, Su Heng, Yu Heng, Shen Wansan, Chu Nan, and others were present. Blood Ancestor was surrounded, as if he was being interrogated.
"Who ordered you to do this?" Su Heng looked at Blood Ancestor, wanting to extract some information.
"It was Crane Cloud Pavilion," Blood Ancestor didn't dare reveal the truth. Afraid of losing his life, he shifted the blame to Crane Cloud Pavilion.
"I can see that you won't shed tears until you've seen the coffin. Our Kyushu Chamber of Commerce and Crane Cloud Pavilion have a long-standing relationship. You should think twice before lying," Su Xing'er lifted her hand and severed one of Blood Ancestor's arms, retorting.
As for the so-called relationship, it was all a ruse to deceive him.
Indeed, a hint of panic flashed across Blood Ancestor's face. Why was he so unlucky? The Kyushu Chamber of Commerce and Crane Cloud Pavilion were allies—how could he not know?
Su Heng noticed Blood Ancestor's expression and shook his head. Asking him like this likely wouldn't yield any results. Moreover, he might not even be telling the truth.
He immediately sent a message to Yu Heng, instructing him to severely wound Blood Ancestor.
Yu Heng glanced at Su Heng, understanding what he intended to do. Without a word, he began to act, using techniques that targeted the soul without harming the body.
Su Xing'er was surprised at first when she saw Yu Heng take action. However, upon noticing Blood Ancestor's weakening soul, she remained silent. She watched as Yu Heng beat and kicked Blood Ancestor's soul mercilessly.
Blood Ancestor was beaten until he lay on the ground, gasping for breath.
Su Heng approached.
Using his powerful soul force, he invaded Blood Ancestor's soul, attempting to extract information through soul-searching.
However, as soon as his soul force entered, it triggered a powerful restriction that instantly obliterated Blood Ancestor's soul, killing him on the spot. Even Su Heng suffered some backlash.
The person who placed this restriction within Blood Ancestor should possess a cultivation level comparable to his own. However, Su Heng also clearly sensed that the opponent's current strength was not at its peak.
Indeed, there was a bigger fish behind this.
"Someone placed a restriction within him. We need to inform the family about this as soon as possible," Blood Ancestor's demise prompted Su Heng to explain.
"Yu Heng, return to the family quickly and report this matter to the Ancestor," Su Heng's expression showed concern. To prevent these individuals from scheming further, it was best to inform the Ancestor promptly.
No, perhaps the Ancestor already knew something. Otherwise, why would he go to such lengths to obtain this so-called Holy Order?
Yu Heng agreed and discreetly glanced at Su Xing'er.
It seemed that Su Xing'er was no simple person either.
He had personally felt the eruptive power of her Enlightenment Realm strength just now.
"Sister Xing'er, I'll be heading to the Northwest Region in a few days," seeing Su Xing'er notice his gaze, Su Heng hurriedly explained.
"Then I wish my brother the best of luck. I will be busy developing the chamber of commerce," Su Xing'er smiled. After all, developing the chamber of commerce was her top priority now.
The group then separated.
In Chu Nan's room…
"These Su family members are all freaks." Xuan Qingzi's figure appeared before Chu Nan, and he marveled at Su Xing'er, Su Heng, Yu Heng, and others' exceptional talents. Despite their young age and high cultivation, they could be considered top talents even within Divine Land, let alone Divine Martial Continent.
At such a young age and with such cultivation, they were undoubtedly the top geniuses of the first tier. Surprisingly, the Su family had gathered at least three of them.
No, not just three; there were four. That person called Su Mo, mentioned in their conversation, probably had a talent not inferior to theirs.
When the Qianqiu Sect destroyed Pingnan Academy, they hadn't inquired about Su Mo, so they remained unaware of who he was.
"What are your thoughts?" Seeing Chu Nan's distracted look, Xuan Qingzi immediately understood what he was contemplating.
"Forcing matters related to the Spirit Fire won't yield results." Xuan Qingzi understood this principle well. The Kyushu Chamber of Commerce aimed for profit. If you wanted something from them, you had to offer something enticing in return. They wouldn't grant you free favors just because you were a guest of the company.
"I want to go back." After considering it, Chu Nan decided he wanted to return.
"Have you made up your mind?" Seeing Chu Nan's resolute expression, Xuan Qingzi knew he had, but he wanted to ask once more. After all, he had just managed to escape from there.
"I have." Chu Nan nodded firmly.
That place was his nightmare, but at the same time, it held his opportunity.
Chu Nan hailed from the Western Region and was a scion of the Chu family, a major family in the area. He used to be the young master of the Chu family. However, everything changed after his father's disappearance.
His stepmother, along with several elders, oppressed his father's lineage after his father went missing, promoting her own son to the position of Chu family's young master.
His cultivation was crippled, and he even suffered mistreatment from the Chu family's servants, being subjected to tasks beneath even a servant's duties.
He sought his ancestor's help, but his ancestor stated that he didn't care who occupied the position as long as it was someone from the Chu family. He wouldn't intervene.
It was the first time he realized that people's hearts were frigid and wouldn't change due to family ties. In the face of interests, familial bonds meant little.
Fortunately, he encountered his master and managed to escape the Chu family, arriving in the northwest region.
Now, witnessing peers whose cultivation had surpassed him by leaps and bounds, an urgent feeling grew in his heart—he wanted to return.
Hadn't he said it himself, as long as someone from the Chu family was in power, it would be fine?
Then he would give it a try, attempting to take that position for himself. After all, he was a member of the Chu family, wasn't he?
