Chapter 1536: Chapter 1537: Merging Spirit with Destiny
Su Min’s words stunned Su Zi deep inside. Over these three months, he had contacted the Su Clan numerous times; in order not to offend this newly appointed Saint Envoy, the Su Clan had also clearly stepped back, paying a significant price.
She had thought that even if the Su Clan still harbored apprehension towards Su Chengyu, they would not display such intense animosity. The Third Elder, Su Min’s words had indeed disrupted Su Zi’s original plans.
She turned her head to glance at Su Hao beside her. Although Su Hao felt reluctant, after making eye contact with the Third Elder, he discontentedly left Su Zi’s cabin, leaving only her and Su Min together.
"Third Elder, I do not understand why the clan insists on opposing Su Chengyu. Is it really just because he bears the ’Su’ surname?"
Su Zi straightforwardly asked Su Min.
Su Min scrutinized Su Zi for a moment and said: "There are some things you do not need to know too much about. You just need to understand that this is the clan leader’s wish, and that this man must die, which is sufficient."
Su Zi remained silent, recalling Su Chengyu’s final instructions to her when she left the Capital City.
What he wanted was not merely for her to stay in the Capital City; rather, he wanted her to become a support for the Su Clan in establishing a foothold there.
After a brief consideration, Su Zi looked up earnestly and said, "I want to see the clan leader."
Hearing this, Su Min gave a slight laugh and said, "Do you even qualify now?"
His straightforward words made Su Zi frown, and before she could make sense of why Su Min would speak to her in such a manner, Su Min took the initiative to speak again.
"Su Hao’s insight is insufficient and cannot see the whole picture, but I can spot some clues. Although Su Hao is definitely no match for you, the current you has not returned to your former peak. You have lost the spirituality you had in the past. Fairy Su, you are essentially not there anymore."
"So what?"
Su Zi asked with a squint.
Seeing that Su Zi did not deny it, he continued, "I do not know why you insist on staying in the Capital City, but if you want this highly coveted position, you must agree to these terms."
In the face of others, Su Zi knew she could simply refuse, but the Third Elder before her could be considered as one of the current major power holders of the Su Clan, and what was more important was that his words carried the authority of the clan leader.
Taking a deep breath, Su Zi blinked and said softly, "Alright, but I have two conditions."
"Speak, as long as it is within a reasonable range, the clan will naturally respond with full support to your request."
"Hostility, I must personally act against Su Chengyu, and the clan must eliminate Ye Qingci along with him."
"Ye Qingci is already an Earth Immortal now."
"How could she have destroyed my foundation if she wasn’t an Earth Immortal?"
Su Zi’s cold words prompted Su Min to curve the corners of his mouth and say, "Alright, the relationship between these two individuals is close. It wouldn’t be easy to take down Su Chengyu without involving Ye Qingci. If you can actually achieve this, we can also extend the timeline a bit more."
Eliminating a newly appointed Demon Slayer Bureau Emissary and dealing with Ye Wujiang’s daughter, Ye Qingci—the first young individual who reached the Earth Immortal Realm this year—was naturally not at the same level of difficulty.
Understanding this, Su Min naturally conveyed a more lenient attitude.
After all, eliminating Ye Qingci also meant removing a potential future threat to the Su Clan.
"The second matter, go ahead."
"I want to examine the clan’s genealogy."
"Genealogy, why do you want to look at that?"
Furrowing his brows in puzzlement, Su Min asked, not understanding why Su Zi suddenly took an interest in the Su Clan’s genealogy.
"Su Wu has a mother, Su Huimin, and Su Hao also has his own family branches and lineage. I want to know why out of everyone in the clan, I am the only orphan; I want to know who my parents really are."
Su Min smiled: "You’ve been an orphan for so many years, why are you suddenly concerned about this now?"
"Previously, I was the hope of the clan, and being alone didn’t matter to me. However, this incident has made me realize that even within the clan, there are separate factions. Third Elder, for example, if I were your daughter, even if I were to remain stagnant in the Hollow Void Realm for life, would the Su Clan neglect me like this?"
"No."
Su Min answered directly without avoidance.
In the early stages of the Hollow Vacuum, with no hope of progressing further, although destined never to reach the pinnacle of the Su Clan.
Still, she could be considered a core strength within the clan, the treatment Su Zi received was ultimately because she once stood too high, and now is pointed at by thousands, along with the sad reality that she indeed has no relatives to rely on.
However, Su Zi’s identity is too special; even though preparations have been made in advance, whether it’s appropriate to show this to Su Zi, Su Min still couldn’t decide directly.
"I need to ask the clan leader about this matter. Once there’s news, I will have someone notify you."
After dropping these words, Su Min swiftly left the courtyard where Su Zi was.
Returning to the house and looking out the window, Su Zi’s expression was cold.
Although she chose to betray the Su Clan while in Capital City, she was definitely not such a fickle person.
One of Su Min’s requests was to bring Ye Qingci with her, just to buy Su Chengyu more time.
She couldn’t guarantee a year, but she was certain that just giving Su Chengyu one more year, at most two years, if Su Chengyu was still alive by then, the Su Clan would definitely not be able to easily make a move on him.
As for the second demand, it was entirely because of another instruction given by Su Chengyu.
The alliance with the Su Clan seemed to have no room for maneuver, Su Zi must provide a perfect response to Su Chengyu on another matter.
And after looking through that girl’s information, Su Zi always had a strong sense of déjà vu in front of her, despite having no corresponding memory, Su Zi still felt that this matter was inextricably linked to her.
But from the timeline, this woman shouldn’t have any connection with her at all.
"Forget it, everything will be clear once I see the family records."
The next day, after receiving the message brought by the Third Elder, Su Zi bathed, changed into a clean white robe, and came to the ancestral temple.
She offered incense and worshipped without any omitted details, and after seeing all this, Su Min spoke softly: "The family records are in the back house, after you’ve seen them, put them back in place. There can be no alterations, otherwise no one can protect you."
Since only Su Zi was allowed to read the family records, even Su Min could only wait outside the temple.
Entering the house alone, Su Zi opened the yellowed book and quickly found the page that belonged to her, featuring no branches above or below, just her name, Su Zi.
While puzzling over this, she noticed that near the page with her name, it seemed there were originally more names than just her own.
The writings were no longer legible, but she captured some residual mana left on it.
"Su... Ningwu?"
Looking at the name that matched exactly with the data, and aside from this name, countless others once pointing at her own name on the page, Su Zi suddenly realized, and scoffed at herself sarcastically.
"Merging spirit with life, so this is the Su Clan’s method of prolonging life."
