“Grandson-in-law?
Which grandson-in-law?” Su Xuefeng asked in return.
Blinking, Luo Ning countered, “Does Old Master Su have many grandsons-in-law?
I’m talking about the one granted marriage by the Lord of Yunzhou.”
It was that damned criminal.
And in fact, Su Xuefeng had only that one grandson-in-law.
As he thought of Su Shan’s death, his anger surged wildly, and he said viciously, “Lady Luo, could it be that criminal has offended you?”
“No problem, I will take people to settle the account with him right now.”
“He has already rolled back home, a criminal and an eyesore, unworthy of attending my birthday banquet.”
As these words came out, Luo Ning’s complexion froze instantly.
She was from Yunzhou City and was not clear about the Su Family affairs, having mostly heard them through the grapevine.
And at this moment, Luo Ning felt she might have misunderstood something and couldn’t help but tentatively ask, “I heard that the Su Family’s status as one of the Four Great Families today is all thanks to the efforts of your eldest son, Su Zhenglong.
Is he also unworthy?”
After speaking, Luo Ning glared at Su Xuefeng intently.
“Of course he’s unworthy, that sickly creature has been presumptuous with me because of some minor merits; I wish I could clear my house of him.”
Su Xuefeng, indignant, failed to notice Luo Ning’s expression growing increasingly uglier.
At this time, Su Zhengtao also added fuel to the flames, cursing Su Zhenglong’s family, Sikong Jing, and Su Yuexi, among various others.
Especially when mentioning the matter of Su Shan, his rage was uncontainable, spewing endlessly.
After ranting for a long time, Su Xuefeng finally calmed down a bit and said, “Lady Luo, let’s go find that criminal now…”
Rip…
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Ning suddenly snatched the paper agreement that Su Xuefeng had just handed over, and right before the stupefied eyes of the father and son, she tore it furiously into pieces.
“In fact, your Su Family is unworthy to partner with the Luoshui Jade Line.”
After saying this, Luo Ning turned with her entourage and left.
In a blink, Luo Ning had disappeared from in front of the father and son, who looked at each other in dismay.
“What is this Luo Ning up to?
Is she playing us?” Su Zhengtao was utterly bewildered, his mind foggy.
At this time, Su Yun came running out, full of conviction.
“I know what happened, it must be that criminal who deeply offended the Luoshui Jade Line.”
“Their Jade hairpin was taken back from Lady Luo by that criminal, using General Chou Ye’s influence.”
“So, Lady Luo was very angry, and by extension, our Su Family has also incurred her wrath.”
Su Yun’s words fueled Su Xuefeng’s towering anger, beyond that, they truly couldn’t fathom another reason for Luo Ning personally coming to play the Su Family.
Pfft…
Ridicule from the surroundings arose continuously, with Su Xuefeng having such a criminal for a grandson-in-law, truly a bout of extremely bad luck.
The expressions of Su Xuefeng and Su Zhengtao, father and son, were as dark as the bottom of a pan, nearly spewing out blood in frustration.
“Damned bastard, again that criminal,” Su Zhengtao cursed over and over.
Just then, a house servant rushed over and whispered something into his ear.
Su Zhengtao’s expression instantly darkened, and after sending all the guests out the door with Su Xuefeng, he said quietly, “Father, Su Zhenglong is on the brink of death, Doctor Sun has been in and out several times.”
“Our people have learned from Doctor Sun’s attendant that Su Zhenglong can’t hold on much longer.”
Knowing that Sikong Jing still had treasures in hand, Su Zhengtao had assigned people to monitor the situation, and now they had results.
Su Xuefeng’s spirit jolted, a cold light sparkling in his eyes.
“No, it’s not yet time to act; that criminal might very well have a hidden card up his sleeve.”
Su Xuefeng had said before that he wanted to find an opportunity to force Sikong Jing to hand over the treasures obtained from the Fierce Beast Bandits.
The opportunity was perfect: Su Zhenglong was in a coma, unable to resist, and Sikong Jing was unable to reveal his trump card.
Su Zhengtao’s mouth twitched upon hearing this, “That criminal, just went out.”
With renewed vigor, Su Xuefeng clenched his fists tightly and hissed with a sinister smile, “Good, time waits for no one.
Right now, let’s take Su Yuexi and Su Zhenglong as hostages and force the criminal to hand over the treasure.”
Without hesitation, father and son headed straight to where Su Yuexi was staying.
“Yue Xian, Yue Xian!”
Mei Xiaofang was still sobbing in the yard, calling out loudly.
Suddenly, she heard footsteps outside the yard and looked up with surprise, “Yue Xian, have you come back?”
But her surprise immediately solidified as, of course, it wasn’t Su Yue Immortal who had come, but instead Su Xuefeng and his son.
Mei Xiaofang’s face drastically changed as she stepped back, “Su Xuefeng, what are you here for?”
Her heart pounding, she knew that trouble was coming her way; Su Shan’s death couldn’t have been so easily brushed off.
Su Zhengtao took a big step forward, “Come, take her!”
Behind him, the Su Family’s experts sprang forward, immediately seizing Mei Xiaofang.
Amidst Mei Xiaofang’s yelling and shouting, Su Yuexi, who was still practicing in her room, opened her eyes and rushed out the door.
“Mother…”
But in the next moment, Su Yuexi was also captured, and in the blink of an eye, both she and Mei Xiaofang were tied to the pillar.
Staring at Su Xuefeng, Su Yuexi demanded in agitation, “Grandfather, didn’t you say that as long as I participated in the Yunzhou selection for the competition, you would stop holding grudges against us?
Why are you still treating us like this?”
She really couldn’t understand why her grandfather had gone back on his word again.
“Rest assured, I won’t kill you.
Of course, you will still participate in the competition, but this is a separate matter now.”
A sinister smile on his face, Su Xuefeng then stopped explaining and stepped into Su Zhenglong’s room.
Seeing this, Mei Xiaofang shouted even louder, “You old beast, you better not touch Yue Xi’s father.”
But of course, Su Xuefeng didn’t spare her a glance and continued straight into the room.
When he and Su Zhengtao came out again, they were carrying the still unconscious Su Zhenglong in their hands.
Amidst the cries of grief from mother and daughter, Su Zhenglong was callously thrown onto the cold ground.
“What exactly do you want?
Yue Xi’s father can’t take this.” Mei Xiaofang was on the verge of collapse, tears flooding her eyes.
“Father, father…” Su Yuexi screamed repeatedly.
In the next instant, a straight figure dashed into the yard, it was Sikong Jing, returning from the Heavenly Martial Pavilion.
He had heard the cries of Su Yuexi and her mother from afar.
When he saw the state of the three inside the yard, Sikong Jing’s blood boiled over, “Su Xuefeng, if you wish to die, I can oblige.”
At this moment, Sikong Jing too couldn’t figure out what Su Xuefeng was trying to do next, but he couldn’t worry about that now.
Su Yuexi was still bound.
But just then, Su Zhengtao suddenly pressed a large knife against Su Yuexi’s neck, coldly saying, “Criminal, you’d best stay still.”
In an instant, Sikong Jing halted, fists clenched tight.
“Ajing, don’t be hasty, grandfather wouldn’t hurt you,”
“Moreover, with Yue Xi being so beautiful now, how could I bear to lay a hand on her?
She still has to bring honor to our ancestors.”
With that, Su Xuefeng’s lips curled into a sly grin, feigning a kind disposition, “I had no choice but to do this, grandfather.
It’s all because you’re too impulsive.”
Sikong Jing’s brows furrowed slightly.
Indeed, he didn’t sense any killing intent from Su Xuefeng, and he coldly retorted, “Spill it if you have anything to say.”
With another twitch of his lips, Su Xuefeng revealed a cunning old fox’s appearance, “Wild Blade Run and Rock Piercing Three Swords, those two Green Jade Stone Plates, you got them from the hands of the Fierce Beast Bandits, didn’t you?”
Sikong Jing was startled.
What was this old man thinking?
These two Green Jade Stone Plates were engraved by himself, what the hell did they have to do with the Fierce Beast Bandits?
