Chapter 1507: Chapter 1506 His Past

Lian Wanxiong seemed to have arrived in a rush. His body bore multiple wounds, and there were even traces of blood in some places. His appearance was somewhat haggard, and his face looked fatigued.

"Kid, you’re finally back!" Wu Daozi walked over and patted Lian Wanxiong on the shoulder. "How is it?"

"It’s quite troublesome!" Lian Wanxiong’s expression was grave. "Several of The Sovereigns have already entered Huaxia Country over there. I reckon they’re trying to take advantage of this opportunity to stir up trouble. Ye Jiansheng and the others are still holding them off. As soon as I received the message, I rushed back immediately. What’s the situation now?"

Wu Daozi: "At noon today, they’re going to publicly execute Su Yang!"

Lian Wanxiong furrowed his brows. "The crimes committed by Su An are Su An’s responsibility. Su An is already dead, so why are they still executing Su Yang?"

Wu Daozi shrugged. "Maybe because he rose to prominence too quickly later on. Or perhaps someone is concerned because he possesses the Destiny’s Tome."

Lian Wanxiong sighed. "Ah, these people always put their interests above everything else!"

"Alright, I have a few things to investigate," Wu Daozi said. "You head to the Capital City first, and remember, try to stall for time. If Old Yuan’s calculations are correct, we can save him!"

Lian Wanxiong glanced at the two of them. Though he was puzzled, he ultimately didn’t ask further questions and immediately soared into the sky, heading toward the Capital City.

With Lian Wanxiong providing assurance, Fatty finally let go of his distrust toward Yuan Tiangang and Wu Daozi.

"Can you two really save Su Yang?" Fatty asked nervously. He had overheard everything just now and knew that Su Yang was about to be executed, a matter that worried him more than anything else.

"What nonsense, why do you think the two of us rushed here in the middle of the night?" Yuan Tiangang said. "Alright, no more idle talk. Since you’re a local here, we have a lot of things to investigate, and you have to help us!"

"No problem!" Fatty immediately replied. "I’ll do everything I can to help. What do you need me to do?"

"Let me ask you a few questions first," Yuan Tiangang said. "When did you first meet Su Yang?"

Fatty thought for a moment and said, "We met when we were in elementary school."

"Elementary school!" Yuan Tiangang nodded. "So, around when you were seven or eight years old?"

"That’s right!" Fatty nodded.

"And what about before he started elementary school? Do you know anything about that?" Yuan Tiangang asked.

"I know a bit. We were good friends and started school together from a very young age," Fatty said. "What exactly do you two want to know?"

"When did his family come to Nanluo City?"

Fatty thought for a moment. "I heard it was when Su Yang was around two or three years old."

"Heard?" Yuan Tiangang looked at Fatty with curiosity. "Who told you that?"

"I don’t remember. I used to visit his house often, so I guess I must’ve heard it back then," Fatty scratched his head. "Why are you asking about all this? Can this help save Su Yang?"

Yuan Tiangang did not answer, instead continuing, "Do you know anything about what happened before Su Yang was two or three years old?"

"I wouldn’t know about that," Fatty paused. "Besides, at that age, he wouldn’t remember anything. What could’ve happened back then?"

"I’m asking about his father, Su Ping," Yuan Tiangang clarified.

"Well..." Fatty scratched his head. "I honestly don’t know. You might want to ask Auntie Zhao."

The "Auntie Zhao" Fatty mentioned was Zhao Xuefen.

Guided by Fatty, Yuan Tiangang and Wu Daozi found Zhao Xuefen.

Zhao Xuefen was still immersed in grief and didn’t care much about other matters. However, when Fatty personally brought them over, she did tell them a few things.

Yuan Tiangang inquired about Su Ping’s early years, but Zhao Xuefen didn’t know much. In truth, Su Ping wasn’t an exceptional figure in the area. In his early years, he was just a street vendor who was always kind and cheerful with everyone, so he had decent relationships in the community.

After Zhao Xuefen’s husband passed away, some people attempted to match her with Su Ping. At the time, Su Ping’s income as a street vendor was meager. He had always lived in rental housing and wasn’t a local, so he had faced plenty of bullying. Eventually, he married into Zhao Xuefen’s family to establish a foothold in the area.

As for Su Ping’s past, he only mentioned a few things briefly to Zhao Xuefen. She knew that his family had suffered a grave misfortune and that none of his family members were alive. Beyond that, Zhao Xuefen had no clue about anything else.

Yuan Tiangang asked for quite a while but never managed to uncover what he was looking for, leaving him a bit anxious. Zhao Xuefen was Su Ping’s wife, yet even she didn’t know much. How could anyone else provide more information?

Seeing the urgency on the faces of the two men in front of her, Zhao Xuefen couldn’t help but feel puzzled. "Why... why are you asking about these things?"

Recalling the heated rumors circulating lately, Zhao Xuefen began crying again. "Su Ping... how could he be the same Su An? My Old Su was such an honest man. How could he... How could he have done something like that? Did you make a mistake? He’s already dead. Why won’t they let him rest in peace? Why won’t they even let him be buried? How is this fair?"

Fatty was similarly emotional. He didn’t know anything about Su An, but in his memory, Su Ping was indeed a kind and honest man who never did anything out of line. How could he have ended up embroiled in so much trouble?

"Don’t be too upset about this. The matter hasn’t been settled yet!" Yuan Tiangang said. "Wu Daozi and I came here specifically to investigate the truth. Think carefully. Is there anyone who knows a lot about Su Ping’s past? We need someone to help us prove something!"

"Prove what?" Zhao Xuefen asked in surprise.

"Prove that he’s not a bad person!" Wu Daozi said.

Zhao Xuefen immediately perked up, her voice trembling with urgency. "This... Can that really be proven?"

"Of course! Otherwise, why would we come here?" Yuan Tiangang said. "Alright, think carefully. Is there anyone who might be familiar with his past?"

Zhao Xuefen pondered for a moment and said, "My Old Su was too honest. He didn’t have many friends. If I have to think of someone he was close to... it would be Old Lin..."

"Who’s Old Lin?" Yuan Tiangang asked in surprise.

"That would be Lin Ze Ping!" Zhao Xuefen said. "Old Lin and Old Su had a great relationship. Back when the Lin Family was wealthy, Old Lin even arranged a childhood betrothal for his only daughter to marry Su Yang. Though that didn’t work out in the end, Old Lin and Old Su remained as close as ever!"

"Really?" Yuan Tiangang’s spirits were immediately lifted. "Where does this Lin Ze Ping live? Can you take us to meet him?"

"I’ll take you!" Fatty said. "I know where he lives!"

"That’s great!" Yuan Tiangang exclaimed as he stood up at once, his face full of excitement. Together with Wu Daozi, he followed Fatty and quickly left.
