Chapter 1025: Chapter 1025: Liu Yan’s Disfigurement

"We’re inside Lin Jiang territory now."

Looking at the familiar scenery around, Su Chengyu stopped his Sword Control and landed on the ground with both women.

For this final stretch of the journey, he wanted to return as an ordinary person.

Having left Lin Jiang with Lin Chuxue and Yu Yanshu, now able to bring both of them back, Su Chengyu’s Mind State had undergone no small change.

He had thought that he could leave with both women, face danger, and at the very least protect them completely by himself.

However, the reality proved that Su Chengyu had still underestimated the dangers of the outside world and overestimated himself by quite a bit.

If Master Cangqing had not taken action, even if he had saved Lin Chuxue, the parasite within her body would likely have already been a threat to him as well.

After the incident with the Long family, Su Chengyu understood even more the importance of solid footing.

If he really wanted to protect those close to him, hidng and dodging were not the solutions.

That was also one of the reasons why he agreed to Xu Zijing’s request to go to Capital City.

Apart from not being able to reveal his own background, he wanted everyone in the world to know that Su Chengyu had returned, and as long as he was around, no one should even think about harming those close to him by the slightest bit.

And Lin Jiang, this place of Su Chengyu’s ascending dragon, was the starting point where he would establish his foundation.

"Should we contact Sister Liu Yan?"

Lin Chuxue asked Su Chengyu, standing beside him, but Su Chengyu shook his head.

His return was sudden, and since he hadn’t notified anyone in advance, Su Chengyu decided not to trouble Liu Yan at this time and chose to give her a surprise when the time came.

After pondering for a moment, Su Chengyu took out his phone and called Lin Huanfeng.

As soon as the call connected, before Su Chengyu had time to speak, Lin Huanfeng’s trembling voice came through.

"Brother-in-law, is that you?"

Su Chengyu smiled faintly, "How did you know it was me?"

His old number had long been abandoned, and to be cautious, the phone he was currently using had been obtained using Lin Chuxue’s identity after leaving Mount Qingcheng.

"Brother-in-law, I barely use this number now. I keep it with me just in case you try to reach me. Is my sister alright?"

"Mhm, she’s right beside me. We’re now in Lin Jiang."

"You’re back?! Where are you? I’ll send someone—no, I’ll personally come to pick you up immediately!"

Lin Huanfeng spoke with excitement; having not seen Su Chengyu for over a year, his excitement was needless to say.

"Is that convenient?"

"Your matters are the most important! What does convenience have to do with it?! Just send me your location, and I’ll be there immediately!"

Knowing Lin Huanfeng’s temperament, Su Chengyu didn’t hesitate and promptly sent their location.

Less than half an hour later, a stretch luxury car entered their line of sight, and Lin Huanfeng himself stepped out from the driver’s seat to greet them.

Su Chengyu smiled faintly, "You’ve worked hard in these past days."

Before leaving, Su Chengyu had Lin Zhiyuan retire and handed over Zhengdong Group to Lin Huanfeng. Although Su Chengyu didn’t care much about that enterprise, Lin Huanfeng always saw it as Su Chengyu’s property in his heart.

The Lin family’s Zhengdong Group was more than just the Lin family’s now!

After all, without Su Chengyu, Zhengdong Group would never have been able to develop in Jiangdong.

"Not at all, not at all. The Xu family was only a transient force after all, and with Shi Sima around, they couldn’t cause us too much trouble either."

Su Chengyu nodded, silently giving credit to Stone Sword Edge for his achievements.

"Grown up, speaking more eloquently than before," Lin Chuxue said with satisfaction as she nodded at her brother.

Although only a year had passed, Lin Huanfeng’s demeanor had changed significantly. Surely, she knew that Lin Huanfeng must have gone through a lot in Lin Jiang this year, certainly not as easy as he claimed.

"Yeah, unlike sister, who seems to get younger and more beautiful, is this one of the benefits of being a Cultivator? I’m really envious."

Lin Chuxue glared at him, and Lin Huanfeng immediately leaned closer to Su Chengyu for protection.

Su Chengyu laughed and said, "Alright, let’s go back first and catch up later."

After getting into the car, Lin Huanfeng asked what they would like to drink, but Su Chengyu waved his hand to refuse; instead, he took out several elixirs and handed them over.

"Yuan-increasing Pill and Ci Ti Dan; the former can prolong your lifespan, while the latter can assist someone like you who has just embraced the Martial Way."

With a single glance, Su Chengyu could tell that Lin Huanfeng had also begun martial cultivation, preparing for the future.

The thought was commendable, but it was undoubtedly too late to start on the Martial Way now. Without the aid of elixirs, and given Lin Huanfeng’s talents, he wouldn’t be hopeful of ascension to Martial King in his lifetime, let alone transcendence into holiness.

"You knew?"

Lin Huanfeng looked at Su Chengyu in surprise. He had been considering how to explain this to the other two when Su Chengyu immediately saw through him.

Su Chengyu chuckled, "Nevermind me; your sister has seen it all clearly. However, there’s no need to worry too much. It’s not a bad thing to want to pursue the Martial Way. I will help you with this intention."

Su Chengyu intended to establish a foothold in Lin Jiang, and Lin Huanfeng could be a significant asset to him. What he planned to entrust to Lin Huanfeng in the future was not just the Zhengdong Group; Huanfeng stepping onto the path of martial cultivation was far from a bad thing for Chengyu.

Even the elixirs he had painstakingly crafted were specifically a batch of Ci Ti Dan designed for those like Lin Huanfeng who had taken up the Martial Way too late.

For them, who had missed the optimal age, the effects of Ci Ti Dan were far superior to those of other elixirs.

After a bit of idle chat, Su Chengyu began to inquire about the changes in Lin Jiang over the past year.

In the two months following Su Chengyu’s disappearance, everything had been relatively stable; after all, this wasn’t the first time Su Chengyu had vanished without a trace.

To everyone who considered him the person behind the scenes in Lin Jiang in place of Hong Zhen Ting, there was a sense of awe.

However, this situation completely changed with an "accident."

"The Xu family came looking for Sister Liu Yan."

Su Chengyu’s brows furrowed, and he became instantly tense, "What happened?"

Lin Huanfeng’s expression was troubled as he spoke, "Here’s the thing, after you left, Sister Liu Yan also shut down the bar for a while to keep a low profile but then reopened it later. At first, everything was normal, and most people in Lin Jiang still respected Sister Liu Yan, given her connections and the protection from Shi Sima, so no one caused trouble."

"Is it the Xu family?"

Su Chengyu’s brows furrowed, pinpointing the heart of the issue almost instantly.

Lin Huanfeng nodded, "A junior from the Xu family went to Sister Liu Yan’s bar to drink. Initially, everything was fine, but somehow got into a conflict with Sister Liu Yan. By the time I got the news, it was too late; Sister Liu Yan... she was... she was..."

"What happened to her?"

"Disfigured."

"Disfigured?!" Lin Chuxue couldn’t help exclaiming, understanding as a woman that this was even more cruel than killing Liu Yan outright!

"How dare the Xu family?!" Lin Chuxue asked, not understanding.

However, Su Chengyu already had some answers in mind, "They did it on purpose, targeting me. They wanted to use Liu Yan to test whether I was really still in Lin Jiang or not."

Lin Huanfeng paused for a moment before continuing, "According to the surveillance at the time, it was Sister Liu Yan who acted first. And with the Xu family backing the other party, Shi Sima was powerless to do anything. After that incident, the matter just faded away. I’ve visited Sister Liu Yan, but she won’t say anything and insisted that I do not contact you, so I am not clear on the specific details."

"Are the Xu family still in Lin Jiang now?"

Lin Huanfeng was momentarily stunned but then truthfully replied, "After the incident, they moved back into Villa No. 2. However, during this time, they’ve been infiltrating Lin Jiang, and Shi Sima has advised us to avoid conflicts with the Xu family at all costs. The Xu family has almost become a dominant force in Lin Jiang."

"Is that so?" Su Chengyu sneered coldly, not attempting to hide the murderous intent in his eyes.

At that moment, everyone in the car could feel Su Chengyu’s towering rage. Just as Lin Huanfeng was about to speak and attempt to appease him again, Lin Chuxue stopped him with a look, knowing that Su Chengyu needed an outlet for his anger at this moment.

As expected, the next second Su Chengyu spoke:

"Go to the Xu family."

A gentleman may take his time to seek revenge, ten years is not too late, but for Su Chengyu, another moment’s delay felt far too long!

No matter the reason, since the Xu family dared to act this way against his woman, he would make them pay dearly in blood!

The Stinger Sect’s assassin Duyi was also ordered to investigate. It was Xu Jianglong who hired the Stinger Sect to assassinate him.

However, at the time, Lin Yang had gone to Mount Qingcheng and then proceeded to the Kunwu Realm for trials and no longer paid attention.

Now was the perfect time to settle this account as well!
