Chapter 1445: Chapter 1446: Memorial Service in Front of the Spirit

Sword Qi formed a sword enclosure within one meter around Su Chengyu, not only isolating the guards of the Bei Tang Family but directly severing their Divine Sense.

With their Divine Sense cut off, the guards from the Bei Tang Family naturally didn’t dare to take a single step closer.

"You are young, but your tone is not small, where do you think this is, for you to make such bold assertions!"

Seeing that her summoned guards were frightened by Su Chengyu’s single sword strike, the noblewoman spoke out in anger and frustration.

Su Chengyu couldn’t be bothered to speak with this noblewoman and turned his gaze to Bei Tang Qian Xiao.

Bei Tang Qian Xiao immediately said, "She is Bei Tang Qi Meng’s mother, and she has always believed that you were the reason for Bei Tang Qi Meng’s death in the Capital City."

Su Chengyu was taken aback by this answer and despite holding back, he couldn’t help but ask the noblewoman, "Don’t you know what your daughter did?"

"What could my daughter possibly do? She had a fiery temper, and even if she offended you, it doesn’t justify her dying in a foreign land without even leaving a body behind!"

"Uncle! Don’t say anymore!"

Bei Tang Qian Xiao uttered with tightly furrowed brows.

Seeing this scene, the noblewoman became even more agitated, "I’ve long realized you no longer care about the Bei Tang Family, this person killed your cousin, yet instead of seeking revenge for your sister, you befriend him! Bei Tang Qian Xiao, today you either capture this man or you will be expelled from the Bei Tang Family forever!"

The noblewoman’s accusation was not only directed at Su Chengyu; it also squarely targeted Bei Tang Qian Xiao. Su Chengyu, unable to hold back any longer, directly spoke out.

"If you feel such pity for your daughter, why don’t you inquire about how she truly died in the Capital City?"

"I don’t care what my daughter did! All I know is she died because of you!"

"Because of me?"

Su Chengyu snorted coldly and shook his head, "Was it I who forced her head down to collude with the Demonic Path? Was it I who pressured her to become a threat to the esteemed aristocratic families and the Nine Ancient Tribes at the Demons-Removal Assembly? The Bei Tang Family has always fought against the Demonic Path, many ancestors have died; yet Bei Tang Qi Meng secretly schemed with the Demonic Path, how could she justify that to the ancestors of the Bei Tang Family? That Bei Tang Qi Meng did not physically die by my hand is one of my greatest regrets in life!"

Su Chengyu’s words left the noblewoman stunned on the spot, disbelievingly staring at Su Chengyu and then turning to look at Bei Tang Qian Xiao.

Bei Tang Qian Xiao shifted her gaze, helplessly shaking her head.

Family disgrace should not be exposed, and since Bei Tang Qi Meng was a direct descendant of the Bei Tang lineage, aside from a few who experienced the Demons-Removal Assembly and the elders of the Bei Tang Family, nobody else knew exactly how Bei Tang Qi Meng died in the Capital City.

"This can’t be true, this is a malicious slander of my daughter’s innocence! You won’t die a good death!"

In her agitation, the noblewoman launched a Miniature Flying Sword at Su Chengyu. Although his sword enclosure did not block the Flying Sword, its trajectory seemed incredibly slow in Su Chengyu’s eyes.

He subtly shifted his body, not even needing to bring out any Magic Artifact, and in an instant pinched the Flying Sword at its tip with his fingers.

"Whether it’s true or not, you’ll know once you ask back at home."

With his cold words, Su Chengyu tossed the Flying Sword, which zipped past by the noblewoman’s hair bun.

The Sword Qi shattered her hair bun, her coiled hair instantly fell like a waterfall, scattering down. She was so startled by the astonishing strike that she involuntarily stepped back and stumbled, falling directly onto the ground.

Su Chengyu’s indifferent gaze swept over her and without giving further attention to the man, he stepped forward and walked directly into the Bei Tang Family’s courtyard.

Bei Tang Qian Xiao quickly caught up, but at the moment she entered the door, the noblewoman suddenly grasped Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s hand, looked up in desperation and said, "Qian Xiao, that guy is slandering Qi Meng, isn’t he? He’s slandering your sister, right?"

Bei Tang Qi Meng looked at the pitiable man helplessly and shook her head: "Auntie, it’s better not to delve further into this matter."

Forcefully freeing herself from the noblewoman’s grip, Bei Tang Qian Xiao returned quickly to Su Chengyu’s side, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Su Chengyu, thank you."

"For what?"

Su Chengyu asked directly.

"Thank you for not resorting to killing."

Su Chengyu shook his head: "Why should I? The heart of a parent is indeed pitiful. Since she genuinely didn’t know what Bei Tang Qi Meng had done, she shouldn’t die. Moreover, the body of Dream Entering Elder is still warm. I truly didn’t want to kill anyone in the Bei Tang Family, but..."

Seeing Su Chengyu’s words suddenly pause, Bei Tang Qian Xiao bit her lower lip and said bluntly, "Do you think my aunt was just being used by someone?"

Su Chengyu nodded, "It was quite a setup, yet without any experts. I can understand the noblewoman acting rashly out of a desperate maternal instinct, but the Bei Tang Family couldn’t possibly not know that these people would never be able to stop me. No one interceded for her, most likely someone wanted to use her to test me. There must still be people in the Bei Tang Family who have grievances against me, like... the Bei Tang Lin branch."

Su Chengyu’s words reminded Bei Tang Qian Xiao, who pondered and said, "After sister Lin returned home, her temperament changed significantly, and she locked herself in her room, refusing to meet anyone or talk to anybody about what happened in the Capital City. Despite that, my uncle indeed approached me several times to find out what exactly happened."

"It’s not surprising, Bei Tang Lin was born with an unusual eye and the Bei Tang Family must have had high hopes for her. Naturally, as parents, they could not accept that their daughter, who had a bright future ahead, has become someone who can no longer cultivate."

"But just when my uncle started making some progress in his investigation, Dream Entering Elder personally went to see my uncle once, and after that, my uncle never brought up the issue again."

Bei Tang Qian Xiao’s words made Su Chengyu catch an important point. He looked toward the distant ceremonial hall for the Dream Entering Elder and said softly, "But now, Dream Entering Elder is no longer here."

This statement left Bei Tang Qian Xiao frozen in place. She bit her lower lip, thought for a moment and said, "You stay here and pay homage to Dream Entering Elder while I make a trip."

Su Chengyu turned his head and initially wanted to assure Bei Tang Qian Xiao that she need not bother, as he would just pay his respects and then leave.

But Bei Tang Qian Xiao did not care about Su Chengyu’s intentions; once she had made up her mind, she swiftly left the ceremonial hall, leaving Su Chengyu alone in front of the hall, shaking his head helplessly.

"This young man, are you also here to pay respects to the elder?"

An elderly man, who appeared to have no cultivation, came out from inside the hall and asked Su Chengyu.

"Yes."

Su Chengyu nodded, took the three sticks of incense offered by the man, and walked into the hall.

The elderly man followed him inside and explained the process of the offering.

Su Chengyu understood and nodded to the elderly man in thanks, "Thank you, uncle. I understand."

"You’re welcome. I am here to teach you all these things to prevent anyone from being unaware of the proper etiquette. Young man, you look quite young, were you also a friend of Dream Entering Elder?"

Su Chengyu nodded and said: "Dream Entering Elder was friends with an elder in my family, and of course, Dream Entering Elder himself was also a senior figure whom I respected."
