Chapter 1055: Chapter 1055: The Last Moment

People had set up the arena, waiting for the Su Family Disciples to return and have their hunting results verified before continuing with the arena competition.

However, they found that only about fifty percent of the disciples had returned.

Su Yun had not returned, which made Su Liuyun on the high platform start to worry.

He had instructed that Su Yun was only going to join in the excitement to shut the other Elders up. But Su Yun’s prolonged absence began to trouble Su Liuyun.

Su Yongze revealed a cold smile. As a supporter of Su Mu, he had already made all the arrangements, which had also been tacitly approved by Su Mu.

They planned to eliminate Su Yun in this hunting competition and try to pull Su Liuyun down from the position of family head.

They took the risk of issuing a bounty in the underground black market, aiming to completely eliminate Su Yun.

Su Mu and Su Yongze’s complexion also started to show worry.

Su Dongyu’s strength should have allowed him to appear by now, but he still had not returned from the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range, which made them worry about an accident.

The expression on the faces of other Su Family Disciples gradually became worried. The collateral branches of the Su Family Disciples had mostly returned, but only a part of the direct descendants had returned, and the key talented descendants were still missing. Could it be that they all encountered trouble?

As everyone grew anxious, at the entrance of the mountain range, Su Dongyu’s figure appeared. His expression was cold, as he looked at everyone without showing any emotion.

"Big Brother Dongyu, you’re back."

"Coming back so late, this hunt must have been very fruitful; the first place in hunting undoubtedly belongs to Brother Dongyu."

As Su Dongyu just emerged from the mountain range, a woman ran to him, flattering.

This woman was named Su Shan, a favored daughter of the Great Elder’s faction, who had always followed Su Yun before.

But after Su Yun fell from grace five years ago, Su Shan turned to approach Su Dongyu.

Su Dongyu initially indeed liked Su Shan’s beauty and figure, but soon lost interest after obtaining her.

Beautiful things are often like this; desired intensely before acquisition, but no longer cherished after.

"My son has come back. Dongyu, how was your harvest this time? Seeing you come back so late, your father was worried just now."

Su Mu walked up to Su Dongyu, asking with a smile. As long as Su Dongyu had returned safely, he was relieved. As for the hunting competition, he had already arranged everything adequately.

Su Mu had full confidence in Su Dongyu’s ability to overpower Su Yun, who had become useless. Moreover, he had also arranged assassins from the underground black market; Su Yun could not possibly return alive from the Secluded Orchid Mountain Range.

"This time, I have tried my utmost."

Su Dongyu’s face remained expressionless, his tone indifferent.

However, deep in his heart, he harbored endless hatred toward Su Yun.

He had thought that Lin Chen was the only strong figure by Su Yun’s side, but after witnessing Lin Chen’s abilities, Su Dongyu realized that eliminating Lin Chen would not be easy.

After the assassins from the underground black market appeared, Su Dongyu realized that his father was willing to use such measures to deal with Su Yun.

He had thought those assassins would be enough to doom Lin Chen and Su Yun, but he didn’t expect that more than twenty assassins would all perish at Lin Chen’s hands.

The power of Lin Chen was far beyond Su Dongyu’s imagination.

Hearing Su Dongyu’s words, Su Mu felt somewhat surprised; he had expected Su Dongyu to confidently declare his victory in the competition.

Su Mu took it as Su Dongyu being modest, but he didn’t notice that Su Dongyu’s face was somewhat pale.

"Well, since almost everyone is here, let the younger generation show their hunting achievements for this time."

Su Mu glanced around at the Su Family’s offspring, saying aloud.

Su Liuyun frowned on hearing this, his son Su Yun still hadn’t returned from the mountain range.

He wasn’t sure if Su Yun had encountered any mishaps; if they were to demonstrate the competition results now, wouldn’t it mean that Su Yun was prematurely out, and even if he safely returned, he would be deemed to have failed.

"Su Mu, the time is not up yet, why are you in such a hurry?"

Su Liuyun coughed a few times, glancing coldly at Su Mu.

As the head of the family, Su Liuyun disapproved that Su Mu was making decisions without him speaking.

"Haha, my mistake, there’s still half an hour left."

Su Mu responded with a smile, realizing he was too impatient and almost forgot that Su Liuyun was still the head of the Su Family.

Nevertheless, Su Mu sneered inwardly, sooner or later he would make Su Liuyun pay the price.

Su Yun would never come out of the mountain range alive; he now wanted only to see how painful it would be for Su Liuyun to hear the news of his son’s tragic death.

People began to wait for the final deadline of the hunting competition.

Until the last moment, Su Yun finally walked out of the mountain range.

This scene stunned Su Mu and Su Yongze, who looked at each other, their brows tightly furrowed.

Having solicited assassins from the underground black market, how could Su Yun possibly have come back unscathed?
