Chapter 1482: Chapter 1481 Su Huo Enters the Capital

If the Medicine Sect cannot protect the Jade-Faced Judge, then what purpose does the Jade-Faced Judge have in choosing the Medicine Sect?

Could it be that the Jade-Faced Judge has his eye on the Medicine Sect’s elixirs?

However, the monopoly of the three elixirs by the Medicine Sect has already been broken. At this point, the Medicine Sect holds little value, and the Jade-Faced Judge is definitely not after these.

So, what exactly does the Jade-Faced Judge intend to do? This is indeed perplexing.

Su Yang pondered over various possibilities but ultimately could not discern the reason behind it. In the end, he could only let it go. However, in his heart, Su Yang became even more vigilant toward the people associated with the Jade-Faced Judge.

From Ge Kaiyang entering Qinghe Academy, to Black and White Impermanence arriving in the Capital City, and then the Ghost King San Yan’s arrival in the Capital City — the Jade-Faced Judge has been continuously sending his people to the Capital City. Although Su Yang did not know precisely what the Jade-Faced Judge was plotting, he had a strong sense that it must be something significant. This made him remain on high alert!

Over the next two days, the Capital City appeared calm. However, a major piece of news came from the northwest region: Su Huo, the family head of the Su Family of Yanbei, personally led the elite of the Su Family in Yanbei to track down some old enemies from years ago.

The Su Family of Yanbei lost quite a few top fighters. In the end, they couldn’t capture the leader of those enemies. Nevertheless, they wiped out all of the enemy’s subordinates. This battle was considered a great victory for the Su Family of Yanbei. Now, Su Huo was leading the Su Family’s people toward the Capital City.

Regarding Su Huo’s arrival in the Capital City, there wasn’t much reaction.

Although Su Huo’s son, Su Ze, had suffered a significant loss at Su Yang’s hands, and the Su Family of Yanbei experienced heavy losses in the Capital City, everyone knew that Su Huo’s visit this time was undoubtedly aimed at Su Yang.

However, after the series of incidents, people had realized that it was not easy for these so-called great families and major sects to deal with Su Yang.

Even if Su Huo personally came to the Capital City, so what? Su Huo was, after all, a terrestrial immortal, and the Su Family of Yanbei primarily comprised terrestrial immortals. What could they do to Su Yang?

On the other hand, if these people angered Su Yang, the consequences would be difficult to predict. The Medicine Sect’s retreat from the Capital City was a clear example of this!

Thus, people did not believe that Su Huo’s arrival would lead to any unexpected events. On the contrary, they were more curious to see how a prominent family like the Su Family of Yanbei would lose face in the Capital City.

However, Su Yang remained highly vigilant on his end.

Su Yang understood Black Widow’s plan and naturally knew why she had left the Capital City. Now, with Su Huo bringing the elite of the Su Family of Yanbei to the Capital City, Black Widow could fully execute her plan against the Su Family.

Since Su Yang had decided to help Black Widow, he would certainly spare no effort in supporting her. The key issue for Su Yang at the moment was how to hold Su Huo confined in the Capital City, ensuring Black Widow could carry out her plan against the Su Family of Yanbei successfully.

On the same night, Su Huo arrived at the Capital City. Just as Su Yang was deliberating on how to deal with Su Huo, Su Huo sent over an invitation, inviting Su Yang to meet him at his residence.

When the invitation was delivered, Su Yang was drinking with Lü Donglin, the Drunken Monk, and others. Looking at the invitation, Su Yang couldn’t help but feel a bit surprised. Su Huo’s style of doing things — how could it be like this?

In Su Yang’s view, after severely injuring Su Ze last time, the affair between him and Su Huo should have become a mortal feud. Logically speaking, Su Huo should have made dealing with him the main priority upon arriving in the Capital City. Yet now, such a sincere invitation was being sent. Was this the so-called Hongmen Banquet?

"Brother Su, don’t bother with this old geezer!" Lü Donglin said in a deep voice. "Last time, you taught Su Ze such a harsh lesson; Su Huo is bound to seek revenge for his son. This is definitely a Hongmen Banquet, a trap to lure you in and kill you once the door is closed!"

Su Yang glanced at the invitation in his hand, frowned as he mulled it over for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No matter what, since he sent out the invitation, I still need to make an appearance."

"Huh?" Lü Donglin looked at Su Yang in surprise. Knowing it’s a trap, why still go?

"I won’t go alone," Su Yang said with a smile. "I’ll bring people with me. If he truly has a trap capable of killing me, then avoiding him won’t change the outcome. If he doesn’t, then going will allow me to see what’s inside Su Huo’s gourd — what he’s really planning!"

Lü Donglin thought for a moment and said, "I’ll accompany you!"

"That won’t be necessary," Su Yang replied with a smile. "But you can bring people to monitor the surrounding area. If anything happens, I’ll be able to contact you immediately."

Lü Donglin nodded in agreement. This approach was indeed suitable; he wasn’t in the right position to confront the people from the Su Family directly yet.

After tidying up, Su Yang headed straight to Su Huo’s manor, accompanied by the Drunken Monk, Happy Monk, Zhao Hu Zi, and others.

As for Old Wang the Second and his group, they didn’t follow Su Yang for this trip. Particularly, Old Wang the Second was regarded as one of Black Widow’s trusted allies, and Su Yang couldn’t ascertain whether Su Huo would recognize him. Therefore, he instructed them to stay with Lü Donglin and his group, prepared to act if any unexpected situation arose.

The manor where Su Huo resided was actually owned by the Chen Family.

The Chen Family could now be considered a ruined household. Once a prominent family, they had suffered immense losses after several encounters with Su Yang, leaving both their assets and manpower severely diminished.

Furthermore, with Su Yang’s rising reputation during this period, the Chen Family had become even more uneasy. They maintained a low profile, with even family members rarely stepping out, lest they accidentally offend Su Yang and invite more trouble.

Su Huo’s arrival had somewhat revitalized the Chen Family, but only slightly. After all, right after the Medicine Sect’s withdrawal from the Capital City following Su Yang’s actions, there was little hope for the Chen Family in Su Huo’s appearance. In fact, they handed over the manor to the Su Family of Yanbei without stationing any personnel there.

Divine battles were unfolding, and the Chen Family dared not get entangled in such conflicts!

From afar, as Su Yang approached the Chen Family’s manor, he saw a medium-built man standing at the door, smiling warmly as he came forward to greet him.

"Greetings, Master Su!" The man walked over and shook hands amiably with Su Yang. "I am Su Ce, sent by the family head specifically to await your arrival, Master Su!"

Before arriving, Su Yang had already received a briefing from Lü Donglin concerning the current situation of the Su Family of Yanbei.

This Su Ce had been mentioned by Lü Donglin several times. As Su Huo’s personal strategist and one of the top-five ranked fighters in the Su Family, he was regarded as a key figure. With a rich experience in traveling the world and forging countless social connections, Su Ce was considered the most sociable and capable individual within the Su Family.
