I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong -
Chapter 358 322: Taking an Oath
"Miss Wang—"
Just as Madam Su was about to speak, an elder of the Su family looked at Wang Yanyu and said:
"Miss Wang, now that Su Shaoqing is missing, it is our fault, the Su family's fault to you. Whether you stay or leave is entirely up to you, and the Su family will not argue about it."
All the guests were watching Wang Yanyu, waiting for her to call off the engagement.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yanyu said, "Since I, Wang Yanyu, have already exchanged wedding invitations with Su Shaoqing, I am Su Shaoqing's wife; whether he is alive or dead, from now on, I am part of the Su family."
Her response surprised those present, and at this moment, a voice rang out from outside the main hall, a voice that made everyone inside pale with its forcefulness.
"I, Qu Butong, do not agree!"
As the voice rang out, the main hall doors were flung open from outside. Several Su family servants who were blocking the way were knocked to the ground by the intruder.
Everyone turned towards the sound and saw a young man draped in wealth, wearing a purple robe, walking into the house.
The young man scanned the Golden Core cultivators present and finally fixed his gaze on Wang Yanyu, saying to her:
"Junior Sister Wang, where am I, Qu Butong, inferior to Su Shaoqing? He isn't even here, yet you still want to remain faithful to him!"
Seeing Qu Butong, Madam Su was more agitated than Wang Yanyu.
She stepped forward and said to Qu Butong, "Are you Qu Butong? Tell me, where is my son now?"
Earlier, a Su family servant said that Su Shaoqing disappeared after being called to a meeting by someone from the Ask Dao Sect. Who exactly arranged the meeting, the servant didn't know—
But everyone present suspected that the mysterious person from the Ask Dao Sect was Qu Butong.
Because Qu Butong had the motive and the means to kill Su Shaoqing without anyone noticing.
At this moment, Madam Su came forward to question Qu Butong, and everyone was watching to hear how Qu Butong would explain himself.
Facing so many people's gazes, Qu Butong's face showed no trace of fear.
He sneered at Madam Su and said, "I don't know where your son went, but it's a good thing he's gone now. Otherwise, if Qu was to see him, I would definitely kill him."
Upon this statement, the elder of the Su family had to slam the table and stand up to uphold the Su family's honor: "Qu Butong, you're too presumptuous; don't think that just because you're a Class A disciple of the Ask Dao Sect you can act recklessly in my Su family!"
Qu Butong replied, "I'm daring not because I'm a Class A disciple, but because I am Qu Butong!
After saying this, Qu Butong turned to Wang Yanyu and said, "Junior Sister Wang, will you come with me now?"
Wang Yanyu turned her head aside, resolutely saying, "I appreciate Senior Brother's affection, but I am already a Su family woman, how can I be fickle?"
Qu Butong, eyes reddening, stepped forward, saying, "Junior Sister Wang, think it over! If you truly become a Su family woman, I'll kill Su Shaoqing, I'll kill every member of the Su family."
His words were clearly not empty threats, hence the Su family members were both shocked and furious upon hearing them.
The elder of the Su family had to stand up and said with a stern face:
"How dare you, a yet-to-form-core individual, boast so arrogantly? Bring the elders of the Ask Dao Sect or even your father here.
But even if your master and father come personally, does it mean my Su family will let you do as you like?"
Qu Butong was staring at Wang Yanyu, but did not expect the elder to keep interrupting.
He couldn't bring himself to yell at Wang Yanyu, so the elder's inappropriate timing provided an outlet for his anger.
He turned and pointed accusingly at the elder, saying:
"To destroy your Su family, why should I need my clan or fellow disciples? Qu Butong will definitely achieve Core Formation within a year, how dare a mere Water Golden Core mediocrity stand against me?"
The elder's face turned beet red, saying: "Fine, I may be a Water Golden Core wastrel, but let me see if a Class A disciple from the Ask Dao Sect can withstand a blow from a Water Golden Core wastrel like me!"
As he raised his hand, a water sphere appeared in his palm, and with the sway of his palm, the sphere surged toward Qu Butong.
Just as he raised his hand, Tian Lin, Zhou Jin, and Ju Yunhai all stepped forward from the crowd.
One took a shield, another formed a seal. In an instant, the Five Elements powers of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth stood in front of Qu Butong.
But a Golden Core mid-stage palm isn't so easily blocked.
Fortunate indeed that the Su elder dared not hit with full force, so the strike was merely to regain face, making it difficult for Qu Butong to proceed further.
But even with a completely restrained palm strike, it sent Tian Lin and the three others, including Qu Butong, flying out of the main hall.
Tian Lin's cultivation was the weakest among those present, but he couldn't be said to be the weakest in strength.
His Five Elements Dharma Body was all forged by top-grade Divine Skills, yet he still spat out blood under this palm.
In contrast to Qu Butong, with the help of Tian Lin and the others to diffuse the force, and his wearing of spiritual tools. The Su elder's palm strike did not cause him any real damage.
As the elder attacked, the guests on the side couldn't sit still.
Those on familiar terms with the elder quickly stepped forward to prevent further conflict. Even other elders from the Su family stood out to advise against further action.
The elder was also exasperated; unable to fight off Qu Butong, unable to persuade him to leave, what could be done?
He couldn't help asking Tian Lin and his companions: "Are you also representing the Ask Dao Sect, causing trouble in my Su family?"
Tian Lin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, saying:
"We are here to congratulate Senior Sister Wang, not to cause trouble for the Su family. But since Qu Butong is our senior brother, we couldn't stand by and watch Senior Su attack him without responding."
Qu Butong didn't acknowledge Tian Lin's goodwill, but he didn't say anything unpleasant either.
He continued looking at Wang Yanyu, as if nothing else mattered in the world than Wang Yanyu giving him a satisfactory answer.
"Junior Sister Wang, will you come with me or not?"
"No!" Wang Yanyu said, "If one day Senior Brother Qu actually moves against my Wang family, then don't blame me for being heartless."
Qu Butong replied, saying, "Very well! The disgrace of today, Qu will return in kind another day! Violate this vow, and let it be like this sword."
As he spoke, a spiritual tool appeared in his hand, a flying sword.
He picked it up with two fingers, then broke it and threw it to the ground.
Without waiting for a word from the Su family, he turned around and left without further entanglement.
Everyone stared at the broken sword on the ground, unable to help being amazed at Qu Butong's strength.
Though the spiritual tool was produced by Qu Butong himself, making the breaking of the sword somewhat easier.
Still, a spiritual tool is a spiritual tool, how could its material be so easily broken?
This skill clearly demonstrated Qu Butong's powerful strength.
Looking at the broken sword on the ground, the elder and the Su family members all wore grim expressions, a shadow cast over their hearts.
But now, with guests gathered, how could the Su family show weakness?
The elder gritted his teeth and said:
"Qu Butong humiliated us time and again, considering the Ask Dao Sect and the Qu family, we will not hold him accountable. But how could our Su family's wedding be subjected to his interference? He forbids the marriage, yet our Su family will insist on holding this wedding grandly."
