Chapter 34: Blood Debt, Paid in Blood
derworld and Bone Clan reacted instantly, converging together and launching a counterattack.Nearly a hundred powerful Netherworld warriors gathered together, releasing powerful dark energy. The cursed...Leaving the study, Su Xin felt extremely heavy in his heart.
He didn't know what had happened to his father, but just from the change in his appearance, he could tell that his father was in a bad way.
Thinking back to last night, the power his father unleashed in the end... He single-handedly wiped out so many powerful cultivators at the Broken Void Realm, and it was an instant kill.
Such terrifying strength has even surpassed the realm of breaking the void.
If his father was truly capable of unleashing such immense power at any moment, how could he have tolerated the Pang family for so long
And Zhao Tianlei is also.
Mingming could have easily killed him with a single hand, yet his father never made a move.
All of this made Su Xin realize that there was a great secret hidden about his father.
But because of this secrecy, his father is still unwilling to tell him.
"I'll only consider talking to you when I can single-handedly crush the entire Situ family under my feet," Su Xin said, his eyes narrowed.
The Situ Family is the top aristocratic family in the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, with a Nirvana Realm ancestor sitting in charge.
It's simply wishful thinking for an ordinary person to try to bring down the entire Si Tu family single-handedly.
But for Su Xin... having awakened the Supreme Bloodline, he possesses infinite possibilities.
Just give him time, a mere house of the Si family isn't worth anything at all.
"Father, I will soon fulfill your request."
Su Xin clenched his hands tightly, secretly making a decision in his heart.
……
The Su family manor was shrouded in a heavy atmosphere.
Last night's attack, although ultimately repelled by the Su family, resulted in significant losses for them.
Too many people have died.
"Young Master!"
"Young Master!"
Su Xin arrived at the largest training ground in the Su family. A large number of Su family members gathered here, and on the ground, there were corpses covered with white cloth.
At a glance, there must be over a hundred bodies.
"Su Xin, you're here." Su Baihu, standing beside him, looked over.
Uncle Su Xin stepped forward to bow, but suddenly his expression changed.
He could see that Su Baihu not only had a pale face, but at such close range, he couldn't sense any spiritual energy fluctuations from him.
According to reason, unless it is the kind of top-tier expert who can completely converge their own spiritual energy and not leak even a trace, they wouldn't have any fluctuations in spiritual energy at such close range. However, his second uncle Su Baihu was obviously far from that level.
"Second Uncle, what is this..." Su Xin wanted to ask.
Su Baihu, however, had already waved his hand and said, "After last night's battle, my dantian was crippled."
"His dantian was destroyed" Su Xin exclaimed in shock.
If the dantian is destroyed, then it is equivalent to having no cultivation. From now on, one would simply be a '廢人'.
"Although I've lost my cultivation, moving around freely is still no problem. But Elder Er, with both legs severed, even walking will become a problem," Su Baihu sighed.
"Two of Elder Er's legs, were they severed" Su Xin felt a shiver run down his spine.
In that situation, the elder who was rough and prioritized family glory above all else, charging at the front of the family, had his leg gone
"Actually, we both are doing okay, at least we're still alive. But look at these clansmen lying before us, they will never wake up again," Su Baihu said with some sorrow.
Su Xin also clenched his hands, and at that moment, his gaze moved, he saw a figure kneeling before a corpse weeping.
"Ning Jie!"
Su Xin stepped forward, patted Su Yuning on the shoulder, and then squatted down to uncover the white cloth covering the corpse before him.
"Su Qinghong" Su Xin's hand trembled inexplicably, then slowly shook his head.
Su Qinghong, among the younger generation of the Su family, is the most outstanding talent besides Su Xin.
Before Su Xin unleashed his true power in the Sword Order Tournament, Su Qinghong was considered the hope of the entire Su family.
After Su Xin killed Zhao Ling and obtained the Su family sword order, regaining prestige for the Su family, this Su Qinghong often went to the martial arts field to learn swordsmanship from Su Xin.
Their relationship is very good.
Can it be that Su Qinghong is actually dead now
According to the people next to me, last night Su Qinghong risked his life to save several young members of our clan, including Su Yuning, by stopping the two nascent Sea Transformation experts from the Pang family.
You have to know, Su Qinghong hasn't broken through to the Sea of Transformation yet. How could he possibly stop two Sea of Transformation cultivators who are already in their early stages
When the powerful reinforcements from the Su family arrived, Su Qinghong had already been killed. However, his final blow severely wounded one of the two nascent Sea Transformation stage experts from the Pang family. In the end, these two were also slain by the arriving Su family warriors.
……
Su Xin wandered around the bodies of these clansmen, uncovering piece after piece of white cloth, and saw many faces he was more familiar with.
There are powerful elders in the Su family, as well as loyal followers who are devoted to the Su family. There are also younger generations of the Su family who often come to the martial arts arena to seek guidance from him.
Su Xin was filled with grief.
Besides grief, there is more, it's anger!!
"The Pang family! No, it should be the Situ family!!"
Su Xin clenched his hands, he knew very well that the Pang family was just a pawn, and the true mastermind behind all this was still the Situ family.
Prior to this, the Su family had been subjected to such intense persecution and oppression.
Last night, even more powerful figures stormed the Su family's doorstep, intent on wiping them out completely.
Let the Su family die so many people... This is a blood debt!
Blood debt, must be repaid with blood!!
……
"Young Master!"
A servant hurried over, “Elder, please go to the front hall immediately, Yuan Qing, the head of the Chi Long Building, has arrived.”
"Has Yuan Qing taken charge yet" Su Xin's heart skipped a beat.
"That's it!" Su Baihu, who was beside him, also immediately looked over.
Su Xin dared not delay and soon arrived in the front hall.
"Su Xin
"
Seeing Su Xin come in, Yuan Qing got up to greet him, "About last night's incident, I heard about it. It's good that you're alright."
"Yuan Qing, you're here today. You must have news from the Heavenly Flame Palace, right" Su Xin asked directly.
"Nodding at Yuan Qing, his expression was off. "I'm sorry, it's bad news,"
"Bad news" Su Xin frowned immediately.
The powerful individual guarding the Seeking Dragon Tower did indeed make a trip personally to recommend you to the Heavenly Flame Palace. At first, things went quite smoothly. After all, with your cultivation level of having achieved small completion in the Sea Transformation stage, you managed to pass the first layer of the Seeking Dragon Tower. This kind of talent fully met the special recruitment requirements of the Heavenly Flame Palace.
But just when he was about to make the final decision, he suddenly encountered resistance, as if an external force had interfered with Yuan Qingdao.
"An outside force meddling The Si family" Su Xin's eyes were cold.
In his view, the entire Heavenly Flame Empire was at odds with his own family, the Situ family.
“That’s not true,” Yuan Qing shook her head. “Su Xin, you don’t know this, but the Tianyan Palace holds an unparalleled position in the Tianyan Dynasty. Although the Situ family is a top-tier aristocratic family in the Tianyan Dynasty, they are not qualified to interfere with matters within the Tianyan Palace. Those who are qualified to intervene in the affairs of the Tianyan Palace must be members of the royal family and hold significant power.”
"The royal family" Su Xin was startled.
Of the dozens who had attacked last night, a squad of ten stood out. Their strength was unmatched among the Void Breakers, and they fought with perfect coordination.
If this team is what Su Xin thinks it is, they should be the legendary Yinglong Guard.
And the dragon guards, only members of the royal family are qualified to deploy.
"My Su family, when have we ever offended anyone in the royal court" Su Xin narrowed his eyes.
Yuan Qing then continued, "There was outside interference, and over three years ago, you angered His Majesty. This matter also had a certain influence on the decision of the Tianyan Palace's high-level officials, so your special recruitment quota has been temporarily put on hold."
"The high-level officials of Tianyan Palace mean to continue observing for a while longer. If your subsequent performance can still maintain this amazing level, they will consider recruiting you."
"Is that so"
Su Xin understood, he had indeed angered the Heavenly Inferno Emperor three years ago.
... to such an extent that even the Heavenly Flame Emperor issued an order to imprison him in the Demon-Banishing Prison.
The Heavenly Inferno Palace taking this matter into consideration is quite normal.
After all, Tianyan Palace was established to cultivate top talents for the Tianyan Dynasty. The talents cultivated by it must be loyal to the Tianyan Dynasty. Even if not absolutely loyal, they certainly cannot harbor any animosity or hatred towards the Tianyan Dynasty or the Lord of Tianyan.
“Su Xin, the powerful figure guarding the Xunlong Tower has sent a message. He says he will go to the Tianyan Palace again in a while and try to get you another chance to meet Yuan Qingdao.”
"No need," Su Xin waved his hand. "Yuan Qing, the supervisor, please thank that distinguished person on my behalf and tell him that I, Su Xin, will remember this favor and repay it in the future!"
But that day, the Yan Palace… Yuan Qing frowned.
"Tianyan Palace is not bad, it has indeed helped me a lot in my cultivation. But if I can't get in, I won't force it, and I certainly won't go begging Su Xin smiled, "Besides, there are more than just special recruitments to enter Tianyan Palace for cultivation."
"Wasn't the royal hunt supposed to start soon"
"Imperial City Hunt" Yuan Qing was startled, and said repeatedly, "Su Xin, passing through the Imperial City Hunt can indeed enter the Tianyan Palace, but do you know how many talented people gather from all states and counties during each Imperial City Hunt Only the last ten strongest to reach the end are eligible to be absorbed into the Tianyan Palace."
"Although you have passed the first level of the Dragon Seeking Tower, you are still too young, and your cultivation is only at the early stage of the Sea Transformation realm. If you participate in the Imperial City Hunt, wanting to reach the end... difficult! Difficult! Very difficult!"
Yuan Qing uttered three "difficulties" in succession.
Su Xin wasn't surprised either.
Indeed, now he can't even pass the second floor of the Searching Dragon Tower. With such strength, let alone in the entire Tianyan Dynasty, he wouldn't even be ranked in the top ten in Yunzhou Prefecture.
But he wasn't in a hurry, after all, there were still two months left before the royal hunting competition.
Two months, perhaps a short time for others, but for him... it was enough to make his abilities skyrocket.
Don't mention it, just based on cultivation alone, in two months' time, with his bloodline inheritance cultivation technique's speed of cultivation, plus the assistance of a grade one Huahhai pill, he could completely cultivate from the early stage of Huahhai to the great achievement state.
With this cultivation breakthrough, his strength underwent a qualitative transformation.
"Su Xin, are you really going to participate in this year's Imperial City Hunt" Yuan Qing looked back at Su Xin.
"Su Xinzhong emphasized the key point, but then suddenly asked, "By the way, wouldn't Situ Yu also be participating in this imperial hunt"
"Sītú Yù" Yuán Qīng furrowed her brow. Having known Sū Xìn for a long time, she naturally understood the grievances between him and Sītú Yù.
“That’s right, that Situ Yu is the first genius of the Situ family. Although he has extremely high talent, he can’t directly obtain a special recruitment quota from the Tianyan Palace, so if he wants to enter the Tianyan Palace, he only has one way: to participate in the Imperial City Hunt,” Yuan Qing said.
"Very good," Su Xin's lips curled up, a gleam of ferocity flashing in his eyes. "Sithu Yu, three years overdue for this decisive battle... This time, I will not 'flee without fighting'!!"
Three years ago, the head of the Su family obtained the opportunity to marry the Ninth Princess after an alliance with the Heavenly Flame Emperor.
And at that time, as the first genius of the Su family, he was to battle against Situ Yu of the Situ family!
……eaker in the middle stage. Even if you join the Situ family, you can gain a certain status.”Then Zhao Tianlei was delighted.At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped in the rain."What's going on"...
