So ti ago, when Ling Kun went to find Ling Chen, he ntioned that Su He asked him to go over when he had ti, saying there was sothing to discuss. As a result, he was so busy during this period that he forgot about it.
"Um..." Ling Chen touched his nose and said, "Elder Su, I didn’t co this ti because you had sothing to discuss with , but rather..." At this point, Ling Chen swallowed his words, unsure how to start. The elderly Su He seed to be in his eighties or nineties, and telling him that his son and daughter-in-law had been killed, who knows what his reaction would be.
Seeing Ling Chen’s hesitant expression, Su He slightly frowned and said with displeasure, "Why, is there anything you cannot say in front of ?"
"No." Ling Chen quickly waved his hand. However, the words reached his lips, but he couldn’t say them out loud. Damn it! Why does such unpleasant tasks always fall on ? After hesitating for a while, Ling Chen stamred, "Elder Su, uh... I just rushed here from the Heavenly chanism Pavilion this morning."
Su He nodded silently. At his age, he could easily see that this wasn’t what Ling Chen wanted to say.
"Elder Su, sothing happened at Heavenly chanism Pavilion." Ling Chen gritted his teeth and finally spoke out.
"Did sothing happen at Heavenly chanism Pavilion, or did sothing happen to that little girl Su i? Make yourself clear."
"Heavenly chanism Pavilion and Miss Su are both fine, it’s... it’s Su Zhengyang!"
When Ling Chen ntioned ’Su Zhengyang,’ Ling Chen clearly saw Su He’s pupils slightly contract. After a mont of silence, Su He slowly asked, "What happened to him?"
"They... they passed away." Ling Chen summoned up the courage to reveal the news of Su Zhengyang couple’s death. As his words fell, Ling Chen looked straight at Su He, only to see no expression on Su He’s old face, eyes like an ancient well, indifferent to such events.
Silence! The heavy atmosphere unconsciously filled the whole cottage.
Su He still didn’t speak, just picked up the wine glass from the table. Ling Chen noticed carefully that Su He’s hand trembled slightly, despite his attempts to control his emotions, which revealed his inner turmoil.
After draining a glass of wine, Su He looked at Ling Chen for a long ti before saying, "How did they die?"
"According to Elder Du, they were murdered, then their bodies dumped at the entrance of Heavenly chanism Pavilion. As for who was responsible, there’s no clue yet." Ling Chen paused and continued, "Elder Su, I know you’re feeling down, Miss Su feels the sa way, due to excessive grief, she shut herself in her room, hasn’t eaten for days, her health is deteriorating. Elder Du said Heavenly chanism Pavilion urgently needs soone to hold the fort, so he asked to..."
"I understand." Before Ling Chen could finish, Su He cut in, "You go out for a mont, I need so ti alone."
"Yes!" Ling Chen dared not disturb, quickly stood up and walked out of the cottage.
Sitting outside on the beach, waiting for about ten minutes, Su He finally ca out of the cottage.
"Ling Chen."
"Elder Su, do you have any instructions?"
"Can you help contact Du Kang? I want to talk to him."
"No problem." Ling Chen nodded, imdiately took out his cellphone, and dialed Su i’s number. Shortly after, when the call connected, Ling Chen handed the phone to Su He, consciously stepped aside, not eavesdropping on their conversation.
Not long after, Su He returned the cellphone, saying, "Wait outside, I’ll pack up and leave with you."
"Okay."
What Su He needed to pack was simple, just a few clothes in a small cloth bag, looking quite rustic, like a countryside villager. However, at Su He’s age and level, he no longer cared about such things.
Over four hours later, Ling Chen and Su He arrived at the forest edge outside Heavenly chanism Pavilion.
Not far ahead, Su He suddenly stopped, turned to Ling Chen and said, "You lead the way."
"?" Ling Chen asked puzzledly, "Elder Su, what’s wrong?"
"Just go ahead, don’t ask so many questions." Su He said nonchalantly, clearly unwilling to explain. Ling Chen dared not disobey, disregarding seniority, Su He was after all his master, so he, as a disciple, dared not defy.
After a few minutes, Ling Chen and Su He arrived at the forest’s center, with about ten minutes to go, they would reach the main gate of Heavenly chanism Pavilion.
Swish!
At this mont, a sharp whistling sound suddenly attacked from the side. Ling Chen, with quick reflexes, imdiately sensed it and quickly dodged to the side. However, just as Ling Chen reacted, he saw a figure flash by, appearing in front of him, a hand firmly grasping his arm, immobilizing him.
Elder Su? Seeing Su He suddenly appear before him, Ling Chen was a bit stunned, montarily unable to react. While he was dazed, that piercing sound approached swiftly, transforming into a point of frost. As the frost approached, it suddenly emitted a cold light, the frost directly exploded, scattering into countless cold lights, covering the sky and rushing toward them.
Seeing this scene, Ling Chen felt a chill down his back, cold sweat trickling down his forehead. If it weren’t for Su He holding him just now, he would definitely have been hit by those cold lights.
As the cold lights approached, Su He remained unperturbed, a big hand waving, instantly reflecting the cold lights flying in the air, splattering onto the surrounding trees.
"Hiding like a coward, since you’re here, why not co out?" Su He shouted coldly.
"Elder Su, indeed vigorous despite your age, impressive skills indeed." As the voice ca, Ling Chen’s field of vision imdiately revealed an elderly man over fifty. The man had white hair, a ruddy complexion, and a sowhat overweight physique. Due to his short stature, about one ter and sixty-five, he appeared quite chubby.
Su He glanced at the other party and said, "Let them all co out."
The chubby old man asked with a smile, "How did you know there were more?"
"If you want to deal with , you certainly wouldn’t just send one person, that would be suicidal." Su He replied calmly.
"Haha!" The chubby old man laughed and said, "Elder Su, you really think highly of yourself. But you’re right, dealing with you alone just won’t do." With that, the chubby old man clapped his hands.
With two loud claps, dozens of figures suddenly erged from the ground around Ling Chen and Su He, each holding a large iron net, surrounding them inside.
A rough glance showed at least thirty people present.
Tsk, tsk! What a grand setup, these guys really went all out to deal with Su He. Now, faced with the eyes of many enemies, Su He’s expression remained calm, unaffected in the slightest.
"Seems my guess was correct." Su He pondered for a mont, then slowly said.
