Chapter 42: Lingxiao Su Family, Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, Red Destiny!

“Hm?”

“This is…!!”

Su Buku and Su Yang exchanged a glance.

Both of them could sense the extraordinary nature of Su Yan’s strike. It seemed that this once-crippled genius was far from simple.

But since everyone had their own opportunities and secrets, no one would pry too much.

Deep down, however, they felt an increased sense of admiration for this decisive and ruthless family brother.

“Cousin Su Yan truly lives up to his reputation!” Su Yang said aloud.

Su Buku also revealed a smile. Toward his family, he always acted like a gentle elder brother.

“Su Yan, my younger cousin, you’ve suffered much these past years.”

Su Yan looked at Su Buku, startled once again.

This elder cousin might not possess Su Yang’s profound sword intent, but it was as if he carried an endless sea of blood on his back—oppressive to the extreme.

And that was with him still holding back. If he were to go all out, just the murderous aura alone would be unbearable.

“The main branch… truly produces one monster after another…” Su Yan sighed inwardly, his face showing a hint of melancholy.

“What suffering? The current Su Yan is just a martial cultivator at the third level of Blood Tempering.”

“Hahaha!!! Crippled?!” Su Buku burst into hearty laughter, shedding all trace of his former coldness.

“Why demean yourself, younger cousin?”

“With our family leader around, every member of the Su Family will rise like dragons!”1

By now, Su Yan had already figured out the reason behind his lost cultivation.

But he couldn’t help being curious—why was the other party so confident?

Suddenly, he thought of that mysterious old servant from earlier.

“That black-robed elder…” Just as Su Yan began to speak, a slow, ancient voice echoed directly within his heart.

“I… am merely the most insignificant of the ones who serve the Honored One…”

The old servant’s voice was impossibly aged, yet it sent an even greater shock through the hearts of all Su Family members in Wudan.

A being so terrifying—capable of instantly obliterating someone at the peak of the Nine Apertures Realm— was actually just a servant of their family leader.

And judging from his tone, this level of subordinate was not unique!

Then how terrifyingly powerful must the family leader Su Zhou be?! It was simply unimaginable!

Even though none of them had seen Su Zhou in person yet, in everyone’s mind, this mysterious and unfathomable family leader had already become a towering, awe-inspiring figure.

“Master… What cultivation realm has that man reached?” Su Yan asked inwardly.

But he received no reply, which left him puzzled.

“Enough!!”

“Sort the assets, take over the Nalan family’s businesses—we’re preparing to return to the main branch!”

Su Zhan waved his arm with majesty befitting a patriarch, issuing one order after another.

The members of the Su Family in Wudan were filled with excitement, and they worked at blazing speed, eager to find out what their mysterious family leader was really like.

Meanwhile, Su Yang and the others led their disciples and Su Yan ahead to the new family base.

…

At that time, the members of the Su Family in Tianwu City had also begun relocating.

The Tianwu properties were left to older family members who were less adept at cultivation, and they received generous monthly stipends.

As for the rest, they all moved to Lingxiao Blessed Land.

Upon arrival, they were all dumbfounded by the scene before them.

Here, the mountain peaks surged like oceans, spiritual peaks rose like tides, spiritual beasts roamed in herds, and the landscape was beautiful and pristine.

Even more astonishing was the aura of spiritual energy—it felt almost tangible.

Some family members who had been stuck at bottlenecks felt signs of breakthrough after just a few breaths.

Meanwhile, Su Chao and the other stewards were completely overwhelmed, organizing the treasures left behind by the Blood Demon Sect, categorizing all the techniques, assigning each branch of the family to a spiritual peak, and demarcating the peaks accordingly.

The process was endlessly complicated.

Atop the highest peak—Lingxiao Peak—Su Zhou overlooked his busy family members.

[Ding!! Congratulations, host, for completing the family mission!]

[Reward: Favor from the Holy Dao]

[Reward: Red-grade Destiny Family Member!]

[Reward: Forbidden Bloodline Technique]

[Reward: Desolate Ancient Sacred Body]

[Reward: Nine External Manifestation Realm Mounts, One Heaven Origin Realm Mount, One Family-Guardian Divine Beast]

[Reward: Family Luck +10,000]

[Ding!! Due to the influence of the Golden Luck Dragon, an additional 10,000 Luck has been granted]

A cascade of system notifications rang in Su Zhou’s ears.

The rewards from this mission were the most generous since he unlocked the system.

Su Zhou couldn’t help but show some delight.

These rewards wouldn’t just dramatically increase the strength of his family members—they would also significantly boost his own cultivation.

[Favor from the Holy Dao: All family members’ innate talent and comprehension will be raised by one grade!]

Low-grade becomes mid-grade, mid-grade becomes high-grade— for prodigies like Su Buku and Su Yang, the result would be unimaginable.

As for the red-grade family member, there was no need to elaborate. Once used, it would summon a family member with red destiny.

What kind of existence was red destiny?

If golden destiny meant a person was favored by fate, then red destiny signified one who could command fate itself.

Such beings carried unparalleled fortune, but were also surrounded by endless crises and deadly traps.

Yet once they matured, the nine heavens and ten earths would be nothing more than toys in their hands.

And the stronger the family members, the stronger Su Zhou would become.

Thinking of this, Su Zhou’s heart burned with excitement.

Without hesitation, he used the red-grade destiny family member reward.

He knew that this family member would appear in a logical manner, so he didn’t worry about it and instead turned his attention to the other rewards.
