Chapter 1483: Chapter 1482 Su Huo

Back then, Su Huo becoming the Family Head was a result of Su Ce’s unwavering support. Over the years, Su Ce had worked diligently to assist Su Huo, solidifying Su Huo’s position within the Su Family of Yanbei. It could be said that Su Ce was the most trusted person under Su Huo.

In the Su Family of Yanbei, Su Ce held considerable power, second only to Su Huo.

Now, with Su Ce personally waiting at the entrance to welcome Su Yang, it clearly showed how much Su Huo valued Su Yang.

However, Su Yang felt no sense of pride. Instead, his mind was highly alert.

Su Ce led Su Yang into the estate and towards the main hall. From a distance, Su Yang spotted a man clad in elegant attire standing at the entrance.

This man had a broad forehead and sharp eyes, a leopard-like face with a trimmed beard, sword-shaped eyebrows that extended to his temples, and eyes brimming with intensity. Simply standing there, he exuded an innate domineering presence. His aura was exceptionally powerful!

Without a doubt, this man was the current Family Head of the Su Family of Yanbei—Su Huo!

Upon seeing Su Huo, Su Yang’s mind involuntarily wandered to the previous Family Head of the Su Family of Yanbei—Su Zhan!

During Su Zhan’s time, Su Huo had been an obscure figure within the Su Family of Yanbei. After Su Zhan disappeared, Su Huo rose to prominence, eventually becoming the Family Head of the Su Family of Yanbei.

Although the Su Family of Yanbei hadn’t prospered in recent years, Su Yang understood clearly that for Su Huo to command the entire Su Family of Yanbei was no small feat.

The previous Family Head, Su Zhan, had a towering reputation. While he formed many alliances, he also made plenty of enemies across the land. After his disappearance, many would undoubtedly seize the opportunity to cause trouble for the Su Family of Yanbei.

Moreover, under Su Zhan’s leadership, the Su Family of Yanbei had been incredibly glorious. Su Zhan’s status within the family was naturally unparalleled, with numerous supporters within the clan.

Now that Su Huo had ascended to the position of Family Head, it was inevitable that some within the Su Family of Yanbei would remain unconvinced.

Under such circumstances—juggling internal dissension and external threats—Su Huo had still managed to bring the family to its current standing, proving that he was far from an ordinary man.

Su Ce led Su Yang before Su Huo and said with a smile, "Family Head, Master Su has arrived. Master Su, this is the Family Head of the Su Family of Yanbei—Mr. Su Huo!"

Su Huo stood unmoving, scrutinizing Su Yang from head to toe without saying a word.

Su Yang remained silent as well, though inwardly he was curious—why was Su Huo gazing at him with such an appraising look?

After a while, Su Huo finally nodded and said, "A hero so young—Master Su, for one of your age to achieve such accomplishments, I must truly commend you!"

Su Yang smiled faintly and replied boldly, "The one most worthy of admiration is Patriarch Su Huo. Commanding such a massive family is no easy task!"

Su Huo responded with a slight smile, "Building a legacy is easy; guarding it is hard. That’s how it is in this world. But once one sits in the Family Head’s seat, one must take responsibility for it, wouldn’t you agree?"

"When Patriarch Su speaks of responsibility, might you mean eliminating all those who have enmity with the Su Family?" Su Yang laughed.

"Not to that extent," Su Huo replied. "As the saying goes, ’Better to resolve enmity than to perpetuate it.’ Some grievances are entirely unnecessary. If they can be resolved peacefully, that would be ideal."

Su Yang was slightly surprised. He glanced at Su Huo, unable to discern his true intentions. Could it be that Su Huo had summoned him to negotiate some sort of truce?

"Master Su, please—come in!" Su Huo gestured for Su Yang to enter the main hall and had someone bring tea.

Su Yang didn’t touch the tea. Sitting on the sofa in the hall, he remained on high alert. If Su Huo had set any traps, he had to be ready to respond instantly and signal for help.

Su Huo, on the other hand, appeared calm. Seated comfortably on the sofa, he sipped his tea leisurely before speaking unhurriedly, "I’ve heard that Master Su is from Pingnan Province?"

Su Yang wasn’t sure of Su Huo’s intentions and opted not to answer.

Unbothered, Su Huo continued sipping his tea and said indulgently, "To be honest, Master Su looks remarkably like an old acquaintance of mine."

Su Yang’s eyebrows furrowed. What was Su Huo implying?

"Your acquaintance should be much older than me, shouldn’t he?" Su Yang asked.

"Yes," Su Huo nodded. "You’re about the same age as his son, I’d imagine."

Su Yang’s heart skipped a beat. Was Su Huo hinting at something? Could this old acquaintance of his actually be Su Yang’s father, Su Ping?

Su Yang had always suspected that Su Ping had hidden depths, but he was only now realizing that the truth about Su Ping was far beyond anything he had imagined. Especially after his encounter with Xiao Huang’s owner in Pingnan Province—the words spoken then had only deepened Su Yang’s curiosity about Su Ping.

Now, with Su Huo also connected to this matter, it only made Su Yang more intrigued. What exactly had transpired? Could Su Ping really have a connection to the Su Family of Yanbei?

Su Yang suspected that the *Destiny’s Tome* he carried might be linked to Su Zhan. If Su Ping also had ties to the Su Family of Yanbei, then this matter was even more complex than he’d thought. Was it possible that Su Ping had done something to betray Su Zhan, resulting in the current state of affairs?

Deep in thought, Su Yang maintained a composed appearance and smiled lightly, "Does Patriarch Su perhaps know my father?"

"Hard to say," Su Huo replied with a smile. "It’s possible that your father is indeed my old acquaintance!"

"Oh?" Su Yang’s guard immediately went up again. He didn’t believe for a second that this "old acquaintance" was truly a friend—more likely an enemy.

"May I ask the name of this acquaintance?" Su Yang inquired.

"By coincidence—his surname is also Su!" Su Huo chuckled.

Su Yang’s heart skipped another beat. Could this truly be referring to his father, Su Ping?

Calmly, Su Huo continued, "His name is Su An!"

Su Yang froze momentarily. At first, he thought it couldn’t be the same person. But then a thought struck him—was his father’s name truly Su Ping? Could Su Ping and Su An actually be one and the same?

"Master Su, may I ask—what is your father’s name?" Su Huo asked.

"Su Ping," Su Yang replied.

"Ah," Su Huo nodded slowly. "Then it seems they are not the same person."

Yet inwardly, Su Yang grew more vigilant. He was convinced that Su Huo already knew something!

However, Su Huo did not dwell on the subject. Instead, he smoothly changed the topic.

"I heard that my son, Su Ze, seems to have had some misunderstandings with Master Su?" Su Huo asked with a smile.

"It was no misunderstanding," Su Yang replied directly. "Young Master Su wanted to kill me, but he wasn’t strong enough and ended up at a disadvantage instead!"

"Haha..." Su Huo showed no sign of anger. With a faint smile, he said, "Martial artists often experience both victory and defeat—it’s part of the journey. Since his skills were inferior, he can’t blame anyone else. In fact, I should thank Master Su for teaching the boy a lesson. Otherwise, he’d still be unaware of his own limitations!"
