--- Chapter 149 ---
After so pleasantries, Su iling invited Yu Long into the Grandwake Clan. And the entire ti, Su Ling'er was hugging his arm tightly.
Right now, they are sitting inside a bamboo forest. This place is the little heroine's favorite place.
Well, Su Ling'er loves bamboo.
"Big Brother, drink this tasty bamboo tea~!" Su Ling'er shoved a bamboo cup at Yu Long.
She also handed a small plate to him, "Oh, don't forget about these pickled bamboo shoots. They are so good~!"
Yu Long puts on a troubled expression as he drinks and eats everything Su Ling'er gives him. He stared at Su iling, finding a guilty look on her face.
Even though they hadn't said anything yet, they communicated through gazes. And Su iling felt sorry for her daughter's actions.
"Hmm, hmm~!" Su Ling'er humd happily, pressing her cheek against Yu Long's arm.
Su iling coughed awkwardly, "S-Sorry..."
"Haa, whatever." Yu Long responded casually.
"Can you tell more about the conflict between your Grandwake Clan and Blackwood Stronghold?"
Su iling nodded and explained, "It started nine years ago. My late husband got conferred the leader of Grandwake Clan, which gave him access to the Grandwake Clan's treasure ground."
"Many people dislike this, including the clan elders..."
"Still, my late husband fought and fought until he got stabbed in the back." She gritted her teeth and clenched her fist.
"This..." Yu Long glanced at Su Ling'er beside him.
Is it okay to say such a thing in front of a child?
Su iling noticed Yu Long's awkwardness and replied, "Ling'er already knew. She might look naive but attentive when it cos to the clan."
Su Ling'er pouted, "I'm not naive. Ling'er is cute, that's it..."
Su iling giggled and continued, "Well, as my husband passed away, he gave the leader position to . I tried my best to protect the Grandwake Clan, shaving the enemy's force one way after another."
"Yet they are still too overbearing."
"Well, that's weird. Your Grandwake Clan's force shouldn't be too weak compared to Blackwood Stronghold." Yu Long comnted with a frown.
"Unless the Blackwood Stronghold has the support of another faction."
'Ah, how sharp.' Su iling staggered at Yu Long's guess. It hits the bullseye.
She sighed and responded, "Indeed. The Blackwood Stronghold has an ambiguous connection with one of three superpowers, the Seven Stars Divine Palace."
"I've been trying to pinpoint the person, but the Blackwood Stronghold's master always kept his mouth tight."
"Oh, that guy. Don't worry, I've dealt with him." Yu Long recalled the person he killed a mont ago.
"Eh?" Su iling was taken aback.
Su Ling'er waved her little fist and suddenly responded, "That's right, Mom."
"Big Brother is so cool~! He flicked his finger, and the big bad guy was gone!"
"Poof and a mountain go boom!"
Hearing such a childish explanation, Su iling couldn't help but take a second look at Yu Long. Contrary to her stunned look, Su iling was calm inside because she knew Yu Long couldn't be an ordinary young man.
Su Ling'er has told Su iling anout how Yu Long saved her from seven bad guys. It was almost instantaneous, with no trace behind it.
From this alone, Su iling concluded Yu Long as an Emperor Profound Realm Expert. He might be even higher than that.
'He can't be an old monster, right?' Su iling thought to herself. After all, soone who reached a high realm could return to their youthful appearance.
'No, that can't be. This young man is overflowing with vitality and youthfulness.'
'He's less than twenty years old...' The more Su iling thought about it, the more stunned she beca. 'Young, very young.'
After praising Yu Long in her heart, Su iling grabbed a bamboo cup and sipped the well-made tea. "Savior, if I may know, are you from one of the superpowers?" She asked imdiately.
"Oh, you're not playing tricks first?" Yu Long smiled a little.
Su iling shook her head and returned, "In front of your power, trickery could only do so little."
Yu Long nodded in acknowledgnt, "That's true. I like how you were straight to the point."
"To answer your question, I'm not from any superpowers."
"Well, not from this continent, at least..."
"You..." Su iling was speechless. Her serene heart was 'montarily' knotted by Yu Long's words because she understood what he ant.
He was an outsider!
"H-How did you traverse over such a vast ocean? I an, even if you flew over it, the ocean is simply boundless." She wasn't dumb as many people tried to cross the sea, but no one succeeded.
Yu Long shrugged, "Unfortunately, I can't tell you the thod yet. Unless the Grandwake Clan agrees to my term."
"Don't tell this was your intention from the beginning. How convenient was it for you to save my daughter?" Su iling solemnly said.
"Haha, don't be too serious. I just found Grandwake Clan's situation interesting." Yu Long laughed. "As for saving Ling'er, it was rely a coincidence as I road around randomly."
Even though it was a lie, Yu Long doesn't care. He only wanted to test the water. The Azure Cloud Continent he knew changed so much because of Ancestral God's interference.
"Seven Stars Divine Palace is a strong enemy, but I don't see them as a threat. I know you can't trust yet."
"However, You should know about the Thousand Weapons Association nearby. That place is one of my faction's branches." Yu Long patted Su Ling'er and bade his farewell.
"You can visit there."
"Well, see you soon."
Su Ling'er suddenly hugged empty air, "Uwaa, is this magic??"
"Mom, Big Brother is gone!"
Su iling wryly smiled while staring at the empty spot on the bench beside her daughter. If Yu Long wanted, he could have kidnapped Su Ling'er just like those people from the Blackwood Stronghold.
However, he didn't.
It shows just how confident Yu Long was.
"He really didn't put the Seven Stars Divine Palace in his eyes..." Su iling murmured.
"Incredible confidence, unknown power and background, and handso face. What an interesting young man."
"Ack, Mom! Big Brother Yu Long is my prince!" Su Ling'er complained.
"Ling'er will be his bride in the future!"
"Sure, sure." Su iling giggled, hugging her daughter. Although she said that, she couldn't imagine a few wild things.
Nevertheless, Su iling sighed because she was a widow. Yu Long couldn't possibly be interested in her.
"Ling'er, stay here, and don't play at the back of the mountain again." She warned her daughter.
"Okay!" Su Ling'er sensibly responded. "B-But can we visit Big Brother Yu Long later?"
Su iling smiled and rubbed her daughter's head lovingly, "Okay. Mom will hold a eting with the elder first."
"Mm." Su Ling'er sat back and munched pickled bamboo shoots.
After pampering her daughter, Su iling left the bamboo forest and returned to the Grandwake Clan's compound. Her bearing and composition suddenly changed into that of a Cold CEO.
Su iling called one of her loyal attendants, "Check the condition of Blackwood Stronghold."
"Yes, Clan Leader." Said an individual in a black cloth.
Su iling walked to the clan's compound and entered a room filled with Grandwake Clan's elders. "Elders, I have good news. The crowd of people that Heimu Qingya led has gotten defeated." She said calmly.
"Heimu Qingya is also confird dead..."
"Impossible!" The grand elder of the Grandwake Clan, Su Wangji, stood up.
"iling, if you want to lie, at least make it believable..."
'Even if I want to lie, I don't think a shaless old man like you has a word about it.' Su iling sneered in her heart.
"Sister-in-law, are you telling the truth?" One man stood up as well. He's the brother of Su iling's husband, Su Hengyue.
Su iling stared at the elders silently, as half of them weren't on her side.
She coldly answered, "You can confirm my statent by sending your attendant to the Blackwood Mountain Range."
"But you guys won't do it because you are a bunch of cowards..."
"SU ILING, HOW DARE YOU CALL COWARD!" Su Wangji shouted at Su iling.
Su iling released her cultivation and chuckled, "Because you're a coward from the inside out."
"For nine years, how many tis have you helped the Grandwake Clan fight against the Blackwood Stronghold? I could barely count it with my one hand."
"My husband died in the battle while you were hiding in the clan..."
"Mother." A young man who shared so qualities with Su iling called out. "Calm down, let's talk this out."
He's none other than Su iling's firstborn, Su Haoran.
However, Su iling was 'imdiately' disgusted when Su Haoran called her mother.
"You do not qualify to call your mother. Since that day you left behind Su Hengshan in the Blackwood Mountain Range to save your life, I already disowned you." Su iling emotionlessly stated.
She gazed at Su Haoran like he was a piece of trash, "If you dare to call that again, there will be a consequence..."
"Elder Hengjun, Elder Hengi, and Elder Hengkui, follow ." Su iling turned around and walked out of the room. As she left the room, three elders followed behind.
Su Wangji, Su Hengyue, and Su Haoran have a frown on their faces.
What happened to Su iling?
Has she beco mad?
