Chapter 810 - 811: The Identity of the Killer
Chapter 810: Chapter 811: The Identity of the Killer
North of the river, the Su Family.
Over eighty people, from the elderly to the children, all executed, their corpses lying scattered on the ground, each face frozen in shock.
"The perpetrator annihilated the entire Su Family in an incredibly short amount of time, which suggests immense skill, far from what ordinary Martial Artists could achieve!" Elder Wang spoke gravely, his sharp gaze turning to the General of the Martial Division beside him.
The Martial Division General frowned and said, "I’ve already sent for the heads of the dozen martial arts clans in the northern region to gather here!"
At that moment, a dozen heads of martial arts clans arrived, trembling as they said, "General Zhao, what are your orders?"
Elder Wang turned his head, and the sight before him shocked all the clan heads of the northern region until their legs gave out, causing them to collapse to the ground like they’d been struck by lightning.
"Elder Wang of Kunlun!"
As the leader of J Province’s Kunlun stronghold, Elder Wang’s status was unparalleled, far above even General Zhao of the Martial Division!
"Who destroyed the Su Family last night?" Elder Wang’s icy gaze swept through the crowd. The dozen clan heads all knelt, shaking their heads vehemently, "Elder Wang, it wasn’t us!"
"Su Tiesheng had good relations with us, I even shared drinks with him just a few days ago!"
"Exactly! Besides, we have no feud with the Su Family whatsoever. Why would we commit such a massacre? It would have to involve a grudge of unimaginable depth!" The clan heads shook their heads, distressed at the sight of this extermination tragedy.
"Bring them all in for questioning, one by one!" Elder Wang refused to believe their words and prepared to act.
At that moment, Ye Wudao interrupted, "No need, it wasn’t them!"
"Understood." Elder Wang dared not object in the slightest.
The dozen clan heads watched Ye Wudao curiously, their eyes full of confusion.
"Who is this man?"
"He commands such respect from Elder Wang!"
Suddenly, a sharp-eyed clan head exclaimed in shock, "He—he’s Su Tiesheng’s grandson-in-law, named Ye Wudao..."
What?
Ye Wudao!
The Kunlun Young Master!!
The dozen clan heads were thunderstruck and immediately knelt, kowtowing deeply, "We pay our respects to Kunlun’s Young Master Ye!"
As the Young Master of Kunlun, Ye Wudao’s status was supreme, far above all martial arts clans and forces!
These ordinary martial arts clans of the northern region, encountering the legendary figure in person, were beside themselves with awe.
Ye Wudao didn’t spare them a glance, striding straight into the Su Family’s estate.
Everywhere he passed, the ground was littered with corpses!
Though Ye Wudao felt indifferent toward the Su Family members—after all, the Su Family had treated him with scorn and ridicule when he first arrived—he couldn’t help but feel a faint sense of regret and sympathy seeing the massacre of ordinary lives.
Inside the Su Family’s main hall.
An elder with a silver mane sat on the ground, a dagger embedded in his abdomen.
"Old Master Su!" Ye Wudao’s pupils contracted sharply as he rushed forward.
The elder, injured with the dagger, was none other than Su Tiesheng, the family head of the Su Family!
Struggling, Su Tiesheng raised his head, and a faint smile appeared on his face, "You... you’ve returned..."
"Old Master Su, what—what happened here?" Ye Wudao hurried toward Su Tiesheng and discovered his heart meridian had shattered, his face filled with the pallor of impending death. He was beyond rescue.
Ye Wudao immediately channeled his spiritual power in an attempt to heal Su Tiesheng, but it was futile!
"Young Master, Old Master Su’s injuries are too severe; even the heavens cannot save him!" Zhao Qingtian smiled bitterly.
Bam!
Yan Donglai slammed his fist onto the ground, his face burning with fury!
"Wudao... Seeing you once before I die... I can pass away without regrets." A weary smile crossed Su Tiesheng’s face as his breath grew weaker and weaker.
"Old Master Su, don’t give up! Hold on!" Ye Wudao continued injecting spiritual power, trying desperately to sustain Su Tiesheng’s life. However, the elder’s weak strength and lethal wounds left no room for salvation—unless a divine being descended upon the mortal world.
Bam!
Su Tiesheng grasped Ye Wudao’s hand and said, "Child, you—you must listen to Grandpa... The enemy—they’re targeting your mother and Yueli... You—you must leave me, go save them!"
Ye Wudao’s heart trembled. He hurriedly asked, "Old Master Su, who did this? Where are my mother and my wife now?"
"The two of them..." Su Tiesheng started but abruptly lowered his head, unable to continue.
"Old Master Su..." Ye Wudao whispered, but Su Tiesheng remained silent. Carefully, Ye Wudao placed his hand near Su Tiesheng’s nose.
In the next instant, Ye Wudao recoiled as if electrocuted, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"Old Master Su has passed away!" Ye Wudao couldn’t believe the outcome. Mere seconds later, he threw his head skyward and roared, his voice like a war dragon, a terrifying sound akin to thunder that echoed across the northern region!
"Ahhhhh!"
Ye Wudao’s cry left Zhao Qingtian, Yan Donglai, Elder Wang, General Zhao, and the others tearful, their fists clenched tightly!
"Old Master Su, I swear I’ll avenge you!" Ye Wudao knelt before Su Tiesheng, bowing deeply before rising to his feet.
Suddenly, a hidden weapon flew in from the distance.
Watch out!
Someone was using a hidden weapon!
"Protect the Young Master!"
Yan Donglai shouted and quickly led his men to defend Ye Wudao!
Zhao Qingtian, a supreme Battle Saint, stretched his hand out to catch the hidden weapon with ease.
"Pursue the perpetrator!" Yan Donglai bellowed.
A moment later, Yan Donglai sighed bitterly, "The culprit moves too fast—they’ve vanished!"
"Bizarre..." Zhao Qingtian muttered, eyeing the hidden weapon in his hand—it was a woman’s phoenix diamond ring.
"Young Master, this is beyond eerie; someone used a woman’s diamond ring as a hidden weapon?" Zhao Qingtian exclaimed incredulously.
A diamond ring?
Ye Wudao’s gaze landed on the ring, and his pupils contracted sharply!
"Young Master, take a look." Zhao Qingtian noticed Ye Wudao’s troubled expression and handed him the ring immediately.
Ye Wudao picked up the ring, his hands trembling. "This is my fiancée’s ring—the one I gifted her when we went shopping in the Capital City last time!"
Boom!
The crowd erupted into shock!
"The Young Lady’s ring?"
"Who could it be?"
Enraged, Zhao Qingtian shouted, "Investigate! Find out who dares to abduct Kunlun’s Young Lady—this is a challenge to Kunlun, an act of war!"
"Right away, Saint Heir! We’ll dispatch people for a full inquiry!" Elder Wang promised, trembling.
"Wait!" Ye Wudao interrupted suddenly.
Elder Wang froze, looking at Ye Wudao with confusion.
Ye Wudao clutched the ring close to his heart and said, "The enemy wouldn’t blatantly send my fiancée’s ring unless they weren’t afraid of being investigated. This is their way of saying—they have her!"
Hearing Ye Wudao’s words, the crowd understood immediately!
"Indeed!"
"The Young Master is truly meticulous!"
Ye Wudao looked at Su Tiesheng and noticed the hall faced due south, yet Su Tiesheng faced east.
"Was Old Master Su pointing us toward something with his position?" Ye Wudao muttered, his gaze shifting eastward. "To the east, is there a powerful martial arts clan?"
"There isn’t a strong martial arts clan in the east, but there is one untouchable super-family!" General Zhao replied cautiously.
"Speak!"
"The Cultivation Clan—The Oriental Family!" General Zhao said tentatively.
Ye Wudao’s gaze turned eerily calm, like the silence before a tempest. Those who knew him recognized this as the harbinger of his deadly wrath!
"The culprit—is the Oriental Family!"
