章 45: Chapter 45: Arrival of the Family
"Are you from that family?" The Qingyi Pavilion assassin stuttered as he spoke.
After all, this family was only a legend. Even some of the top-level experts in the pavilion hadn't seen members of this family. The only proof of their existence was certain tokens, and this jade pendant was a direct descendant of that family.
When someone had previously slandered this family within the pavilion, the higher-ups of Qingyi Pavilion pursued them relentlessly. Even those who had some connection with the slanderer were wiped out within a day. After this incident, no one dared to underestimate this family. People no longer saw them as something illusory or ethereal.
"Master." The person quickly knelt down on the ground, fearing that he might lose his life if he knelt too slowly.
"Retreat for now. From now on, the Lord's Mansion is affiliated with my Su family," Su Xing'er didn't intend to say much. After all, the actions of the Lord's Mansion would be significant in the future, and mentioning this helped to avoid potential accidents.
The man breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he was safe. He had been afraid of being left behind.
However, the Su family's direct lineage was indeed remarkable. They even had three Enlightenment Realm experts accompanying them, and they were not ordinary experts.
As an assassin, he was extremely sensitive to auras. Even though they hadn't revealed themselves, he still sensed the immense aura like an abyss, comparable only to the hall masters who had ascended the pavilion.
In the hall, the remaining people lowered their heads like quails, not daring to utter a single word.
The fact that this young girl had such a powerful background was difficult for them to accept. Even the Qingyi Pavilion, which dominated the five regions, was only a vassal to her. They couldn't comprehend it for a while.
They were also afraid that if they knew too much, they wouldn't be able to survive.
Even Jiang Ce wore a shocked expression. Could it be that the Su family was an ancient force that had been hidden? Otherwise, how could they be so powerful? Their strength was overwhelming, making it difficult for anyone to resist the thought of rebellion.
"In the future, serve the Lord's Mansion well. I won't mistreat you, but if I find anyone harboring improper intentions, don't blame me for being ruthless." Su Xing'er glanced at these people, then looked meaningfully at Jiang Ce.
"Forever the Lord's Mansion's faithful servant, Miss is forever our guide," these people had learned from their previous mistakes and quickly knelt, expressing their loyalty.
Su Xing'er smiled with satisfaction. These people finally knew what was good for them. She didn't mind sparing their lives now.
A spatial rift opened, and Su Xing'er turned and left, with Qing Nu following closely. Yu Heng and Yao Guang followed suit, tearing through space and departing. The remaining matters no longer required their attention. If things couldn't be settled at this point, they would truly be worthless.
As Su Xing'er left, the people around her no longer dared to underestimate Jiang Ce, the young lad with wild hair. After all, he was no longer representing the Lord's Mansion.
Jiang Ce also issued orders. With Su Xing'er's influence looming, these people didn't dare to be disloyal in secret.
Jiang Ce began by reorganizing the forces and then sent people to integrate the Treasure Pavilion. After all, it was the largest Chamber of Commerce in the Northwestern Region. Its downfall would be a cause for celebration for the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.
Su Xing'er also swiftly expanded her market share in the Treasure Pavilion's territories. The Kyushu Chamber of Commerce was spreading like wildfire, its development unstoppable.
Azure Cloud Kingdom.
At present, Azure Cloud Kingdom was in complete disarray. The major powers were no longer hiding; they had directly taken action and divided the country into several parts.
Several princes had also rallied numerous supporters to retreat beyond the capital city walls. They stationed troops around the city but refrained from launching an assault. As of now, the capital city remained under the jurisdiction of the Azure Cloud royal family.
The towering edifice was on the brink of collapse. However, no one dared to make a rash move. After all, those old fellows in the royal family were still alive. Anyone who dared to act recklessly now would just be courting disaster.
The ruler of Azure Cloud Kingdom was growing increasingly anxious. After all, the situation had reached his doorstep.
"Is there any news from the Qianqiu Sect?" the ruler of Azure Cloud Kingdom asked the elderly eunuch beside him.
"I plead guilty, Your Majesty," the old eunuch knelt on the ground upon hearing the ruler's inquiry.
Seeing the old eunuch's demeanor, the ruler of Azure Cloud Kingdom understood the answer. He closed his eyes with a touch of helplessness.
"Forget it, it's destiny and fate," the ruler of Azure Cloud Kingdom muttered, slumping onto the dragon throne. His appearance had aged by more than ten years compared to before.
The Qianqiu Sect had naturally received Azure Cloud Kingdom's message, expressing its willingness to acknowledge the Qianqiu Sect as its paramount sect. The Qianqiu Sect had originally intended to mediate, but they received news from the Su family and decided to remain inactive.
Helpless, the Qianqiu Sect could only feign ignorance and continue their cultivation in seclusion. The reason, of course, stemmed from the Su family.
Su Family.
During this time, the Su family's members had experienced a tremendous transformation in their cultivation. With the help of various heaven-defying treasures, the cultivation of the ten elders had even reached the True Martial Realm. Some had even advanced to the late stage of the True Martial Realm at a rapid pace.
The treasures that Huo Xiu had delivered were abundant, and the process of retrieving them further enhanced their gains. The treasures just kept getting better!
Upon learning about it, Su Zeduan pretended to comply with Su Xun's instructions, contributing half of the treasures from the elders' treasuries. Although the elders were somewhat dissatisfied, they complied with the intention of the figure in the back mountains.
Many valuable items were now in Su Zeduan's possession. After all, his cultivation progress was relatively slower due to his different system. Otherwise, wouldn't he be in the late stage of the True Martial Realm by now? How could he struggle against those elders?
A few days ago, at the entrance to the master's courtyard.
"Father cannot decide otherwise. If you think this way, I will take you to meet the patriarch," the second elder looked at the young girl in front of him with concern.
"Father, your daughter's mind is made up. I hope father can grant his blessing," the young girl appeared to be a well-cultivated young lady, kneeling directly on the ground and performing a standard kowtow.
"Enough, let's go see the patriarch together!" The second elder had no choice but to bring his own daughter to meet the patriarch.
Upon hearing this, Su Zeduan was also undecided. After all, if he did this, the Su family couldn't ignore it.
In the end, Su Zeduan felt he couldn't make the decision himself and sent her to the back mountain.
"Little girl, have you thought this through?" Su Xun looked at the kneeling girl before him and furrowed his brows.
"Tianning knows, but I still want to save those innocent victims from suffering." The girl exuded an air of compassion for the world.
"But have you considered how to save them? Can you save ten people? A hundred? A thousand? In this world of countless billions, there are many suffering individuals. How do you plan to save them all?" Su Xun looked at the girl in front of him, disappointment written all over his face.
"I will do my best to save one person." Su Tianning didn't know how to answer this question, so she could only say this resolutely.
