Chapter 30: Taking Action
d nodded.Meanwhile, Qiu Ze and Ling Yu on the side were both shocked."Are you asking or demanding," Lingyu was very clear about the difference between these two words.To ask for advice, that means bot...The order was issued swiftly.
The strongmen and children of the Su family from several strongholds in Juncheng have all been recalled.
Even some industries have directly abandoned it.
Although most of the Su family members didn't understand the order, they still obediently stayed within the Su residence.
While the strongest members of the Su family were waiting for news from the Heavenly Flame Palace.
Soon, five days will pass.
The Páng family mansion.
"Su family, what the hell are you doing"
Many elders of the Pang family, including some of the most powerful disciples, gathered together, all looking puzzled.
They were so formidable before, killing many 化海境 experts from the Páng family within just a few days.
Could it all come to an end so suddenly
Several strongholds, including some industries we've always wanted to seize, have been abandoned by the Su family. The Su family members have been staying inside their manor these days and haven't gone out.
"Su family, are you afraid Are you going to avoid battle" said an elder of the Pang family.
"Afraid" Pang Shaocheng, the head of the Pang family, sneered. "The Su family, that was once a top-tier family with an ancestor who had reached the Nirvana Realm. Although it has fallen now, the bones of the Su family are still proud. Before, even though they knew they were inferior to our Pang family in terms of high-level power, they never backed down from our conflicts. How could they be afraid"
Besides, this period of fighting has greatly benefited the Su family while causing heavy losses to my Pang family. We have lost dozens of cultivators at the Sea-Transformation stage, particularly four at the peak of the Sea-Transformation stage. In contrast, the Su family has only lost a few ordinary Sea-Transformation stage cultivators, and none of their peak-stage Sea-Transformation cultivators have died!
"If we only consider the combat strength of those at the Hua Hai Realm, the Su family is now not much weaker than us. So why should we fear them"
Páng Shàoqīng's expression had become very ugly by this point.
Actually, the death of some Sea Transformation Realm powerhouses wouldn't be a big deal. Even if four peak Sea Transformation realm experts died, the Pang family could accept it.
What he couldn't accept, and what terrified him even more, was that one of the cultivators who had reached the peak of the Sea-Shaking Realm had been slain.
Su Xin, the young master of the Su family!
At that time, in An Shui Lane, many pairs of eyes witnessed with their own eyes how Su Xin, single-handedly, directly crushed and killed the three peak Sea Transformation stage experts from the Pang family.
Then Su Xin, is merely just at the early stage of the Sea Transformation Realm.
The combat power that erupted was terrifying.
Terrifying, the entire Pang family was horrified.
This also made them even more eager to kill Su Xin, and he had even made plans before, wanting a powerhouse from the Void-Breaking Realm to take action himself. But who would have thought... Not to mention Su Xin, but everyone in the Su family stayed at the Su Family Mansion and didn't come out.
In this situation, to kill Su Xin again, one could only break into the Su family's mansion and have a real showdown with the Su family!
"The mysterious swordsman who killed Zhao Tianlei and Pang Shan previously has never been found. It's also unknown how many such Void Refinement Stage powerhouses are still hidden within the Su family. Taking a rash action to fight now is too risky," Pang Shaoqing pondered.
After a moment, he finally looked up again.
"Issue the order, and have it done as quickly as possible. Confiscate all of the Su family's property in Jun City, and throughout Yongning County. I don't believe they can survive without food and drink if we seize everything they own. By taking their possessions, they will surely become desperate."
Also, try every means possible to get in touch with our informants inside the Su family and find out exactly what happened within.
As for that Su Xin… wait!”
"A genius like him indeed possesses extraordinary potential, but which top-tier expert in this world hasn't grown up through endless honing Let him stay at the Su family and not be tempered; over time, he will become an ordinary person."
Only then had Pang Shaoqing finished speaking.
"Hmph, a mediocre person Before Su Xin becomes mediocre, all of your Pang family members will probably be extinct!" A cold snort suddenly sounded.
"Who" Pang Shaoqing's eyes turned cold.
All the powerful figures present also stood up one after another, their faces full of apprehension.
A burly figure appeared out of thin air in the hall.
This was a burly, black-robed old man. The old man's eyes were cold, and he looked around. He also emanated an extremely chilling aura.
"The Grand Master, Pang Shaoqing, immediately bowed."
Several elders of the Pang family, who were present nearby, also hurried to pay their respects.
Dark Azure, a top expert from the Situ family.
Over the past three years, the Pang family has been constantly suppressing the Su family under the instruction of the Situ family, and the middleman between the Situ family and the Pang family is this Dark Azure Lord.
"Master Pang, my master is very disappointed in you!" An Cang said coldly.
PANG Shaoqing's face changed, and he hurriedly said: "Lord Ancang, my PANG family has always been doing its best to follow your instructions these past few years. Under the pressure of our PANG family, the SU family is already on the decline. I believe that in a short time, our PANG family will be able to completely eradicate the SU family.
"Even uprooted" An Cang sneered, "Master Pang, you're truly oblivious even as death approaches."
"Are you facing death" Pang Shaoqing's face changed drastically.
Even the powerful individuals surrounding the Pang family were astonished.
When facing death, these four characters feel rather heavy.
"Lord Ancang, where did you begin this" asked Pang Shaoqing repeatedly.
"Do you know that the Su family previously fought with you so fiercely, yet why have they suddenly chosen to back down these past few days" An Cang coldly stared at Pang Shaoqing, "That's because Su Xin, from the Su family, has already cleared the first level of the Dragon Seeking Tower and is about to become a disciple of the Tianyan Palace!"
"What" Pang Shaoqing widened his eyes.
Disciples of the Heavenly Inferno Palace
"Tianyan Palace is too special. Even our Situ family wouldn't want to easily provoke a Tianyan Palace disciple. And that Su Xin, if he truly becomes a Tianyan Palace disciple, it would be too easy for him to deal with your insignificant Pang family.
"The Su family knows this very well, so they don't need to continue fighting with you. They choose to temporarily endure. As long as the Tianyan Palace makes a decision and Su Xin becomes a disciple of the Tianyan Palace, your Pang family will be like fish on a chopping board," An Cang said darkly.
Pangs Shaoqing's heart trembled, and he understood. Disciples of the Heavenly Flame Palace, unless they encountered unforeseen circumstances, would undoubtedly become top-ranking officials of the Heavenly Flame Dynasty after the event.
Then, during the process of growth, there will definitely be many powerful forces that will try to win him over in advance. At that time, Su Xin won't have to make a special effort, as long as he just hints at it once or twice, many powerful forces in the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty will be willing to destroy his Pang family.
After all, the Páng family, is just an ordinary family within a single county city. Compared to the true powers and wealthy clans of the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, they are no different from an ant. Destroying a Páng family and recruiting a top talent like Sū Xìn is something many powerful forces would be willing to do.
"Lord Ancang, my Pang family has always been loyal to the Situ family. For these years, we have been working tirelessly against the Su family because the Situ family ordered us to do so. Now that my Pang family is in danger, I implore you, Lord Ancang, to save my son, Pang Shaoqing, for the sake of our loyalty to the Situ family!"
The high-ranking experts of the Pang family beside him were also anxious at this moment.
They had all never expected that just one Su Xin, unknowingly, would have pushed their Pang family to the brink of a precipice.
Had it not been for the Dark Lord's personal visit today, they wouldn't even have known about this.
As An Cang just said, the Pang family is truly at its last breath, yet they remain oblivious.
"Rest assured, the master has seen everything your Pang family has done these years. If the master didn't care about your lives and deaths, he wouldn't have sent me here tonight," said An Cang Dao.
This remark made the powerful figures in the Pang family overjoyed.
At least in this critical juncture, the Situ family has not abandoned the Pang family.
“The existence of Su Xin is already known to the Heavenly Flame Palace, and the high-level officials of the Heavenly Flame Palace are already discussing whether to give Su Xin a special recruitment quota. This is an irrefutable fact. Once Su Xin becomes a disciple of the Heavenly Flame Palace, even my Situ family, if we don't leave any trace whatsoever, dare not make a move against him!”
But... before the special recruitment quotas for Tianyan Palace officially arrive, we still have a chance!" An Cang's voice was low and deep.
"Lord Ancang, are you saying that we'll make a move within these few days" Pang Shaoqing frowned slightly. "But Su Xin will be staying at the Su family for the next few days. To harm him, unless... we engage in a direct confrontation with the Su family!"
"If we have to fight, then let's fight! Is the Pang family afraid" An Cang stared at Pang Shaoqing.
“It’s not that I’m afraid, but a while ago, an Elder of the Pang family who had reached the Profound Void Realm died at the hands of a mysterious swordsman. I suspect there are other powerful individuals hidden within the Su family, so…” Pang Shaoqing's words were cut short.
“Hmph, would the Su family still be hiding powerful experts My Situ family wouldn't know” An Cang coldly snorted, “I can tell you very clearly that the broken void realm experts of the Su family, apart from one Su family ancestor who died at the beginning and most of them left, the rest were all killed in a massacre and are now gone. The only two broken void realm experts left in the Su family are…"
"Hm" Páng Shàoqīng was startled.
A massacre All of the Void Realm experts left in the Su family are dead
When will the killing be
An Cang didn't elaborate much, "The hidden power within the Su family, you don't need to worry about it. As for whether the Su family ancestor left behind any trump cards... During that massacre back then, so many powerful figures died, and the Su family was forced into such a desperate situation, they probably wouldn't have used any trump cards. The chances are, there aren't any."
Therefore, the only thing we truly need to worry about is the head of the Su family—Su Bai Chen!
“Su Bai Chen” Pang Shaoqing was astonished, “Lord An Cang, Su Bai Chen is only at the late stage of Void Breaking cultivation, comparable to mine. I’ve even fought him before, and he was only slightly stronger than me. With your strength, Lord An Cang, dealing with him should be effortless.”
"Easy peasy" An Cang glanced at Pang Shaoqing oddly and smiled, "Master Pang, that Su Bai isn't as simple as you think."
“Back then, when the Su family's ancestor was still alive, both Su Baichen and my master were among the top talents of the younger generation in the imperial dynasty. They even had the qualifications to become disciples of the Tianyan Palace. However, Su Baichen had a carefree personality. After reaching a certain level of cultivation, he chose not to enter the Tianyan Palace but instead left the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty alone to explore the world.”
This one venture, will be around ten years.
Later, he returned, bringing with him a two or three-year-old child. Soon after, he became the head of the Su family. It can be said that since his return, he has rarely taken action. Therefore, no one knows how strong he truly is.
But as a top genius comparable to my master... At the same level of cultivation, Peak Void Breaker, my master can now kill me with one hand. Even if Su Bai is slightly inferior to my master, he's definitely not far behind.
This time, in order to deal with him, my master spent a great deal of effort and persuasion to enlist the help of 'that one'. A detachment of Yinglong Guards was sent to assist.
"Yinglong Guard" Pang Shaocheng was greatly surprised. "It's said that only the Tianyan royal family has the qualification to appoint the strongest guard corps"
"Yes, so this time, we absolutely cannot fail. If we can't destroy the Su family this time, once Su Xin becomes a disciple of the Tianyan Palace, it will be difficult to move against them again," An Cang said.
While Pang Shaoqing was surprised and delighted.
To be shocked, of course, was the head of the Su family, Su Bai Chen. He was unexpectedly capable, able to make the Situ family resort to hiring the Yinglong Guards.
If Yinglong Wei makes a move, then Su Bai will be in grave danger. Unless he possesses the combat power of a Nirvana Realm warrior, his death is inevitable, and the Su family will surely perish as well.
As for Su Xin, with even his family being wiped out, this genius, of course, had to die as well.
"Master Pang, in two days, the Yinglong Guard will arrive. They can't stay long, so we must strike at the Su family that night. Prepare yourself as well," An Cang said.
"Pang Shaoqing nodded."
Soon, Pang Shaoqing began to consult with the elders of the Pang family to prepare.
Of course, although it was preparation, it was also carried out in secret. They were also worried about leaks and giving the Su family a chance to prepare.
So only those who are absolutely loyal to the Pang family would know about this.
Two days later, Yinglongwei arrived as scheduled.
At night, the moon is hazy.
In the streets not far from the Su family mansion, or in the dark alleys, countless figures were hidden and lurking.
On the rooftop of an attic, more than ten figures stood in a row.
Remember, our mission here is to completely destroy the Su family if possible. Even if we can't do that, we must at least kill Su Bai and Su Xin!
A deep, dark voice in a black robe said solemnly, “Dragon Nine brother, your Yinglong Guard squad will join me and Headmaster Pang later to jointly encircle and kill Su Bai-chen. As for the remaining few broken void realms of the Pang family, they will charge into the Su family mansion with everyone else, finding an opportunity to kill Su Xin first.”
The leader of the Dragon Guard's small squad, 'Long Jiu', nodded slightly.
"Mr. Chang, besides me, you are the only one in our Pang family who has reached the late stage of Void Breaking cultivation, and you are also quite proficient in assassination techniques. When we get to the Su family later, you hide first and see if there are any other strong experts appearing."
"If not, you can directly kill Su Xin. If there is... as long as the other party exposes themselves first, you can also find an opportunity to kill Su Xin." Pang Shaoqing whispered to the attendant beside him.
>Mr. Hao nodded.
"Get to work!"
The attack began soon.
More than ten figures on the attic roof leaped into the air, swiftly heading towards the Su family mansion ahead.
Who
Within the Su family, guards were still heavily in place. More than ten figures arrived simultaneously, and the Su family's guards immediately noticed them.
"Haha!!"
"The brats of the Su family, tonight is the day your Su family will be wiped out!!"
A long cry echoed throughout the night sky.
The Su family, instantly shaken!
……d be someone who could benefit the control Jiusheng Mountain has over a vast territory encompassing dozens of empires. Furthermore, such an individual might only appear every few years, or even every...
