1535: Chapter 1536: Achieving Greatness Across the World 1535: Chapter 1536: Achieving Greatness Across the World The drizzling rain washed away the stench of blood outside the courtyard, yet Su Zi’s actions upon returning to the clan did not completely dispel others’ doubts about her strength.
This ti, Su Zi did not hold back, not only severing the arm but also destroying all of the cultivation at the second layer of the Hollow Void Realm of her opponent.
Such action was not easy for the present Su Zi, but she knew that if she did not establish her authority in this way, the number of people coming to provoke her would only increase.
This behavior, starkly different from Su Zi’s past deanor, finally made the perceptive mbers of the clan aware that sothing was amiss; no one ca to Su Zi’s private residence to test her anymore, as to how much strength Su Zi has actually recovered now.
It finally gave her so peace and quiet.
After confirming that there were no more prying eyes around her place in the Eastern Capital, Su Zi took out the ssage that Su Chengyu had given her before leaving the Capital City.
Looking at the information of the woman on it, Su Zi slightly furrowed her brows, yet she could not recall such a woman in the clan.
The Ancient Clan had always been exclusive, not to ntion the inexplicably joined new mbers of the Su Clan, even those who married into the clan from outside or those who married into the clan would inevitably attract a lot of gossip.
Yet, in her mory, there seed to have never been any news about this woman.
After committing all the information about the woman to mory, Su Zi destroyed the information-bearing jade slip, then slowly stood up and looked outside the house.
It was as desolate as ever, but the desolation now was so different from the past.
Back then, they had awe for her, but now they shunned her as much as they could.
Just as Su Zi thought she could have so peace for a while, an unfamiliar voice ca from outside the door.
Su Zi frowned, pondered for a mont, and then still went outside.
“Why have you co?”
Su Zi looked at the spirited man in front of her with an expressionless face.
Had she not known him through and through, who could have imagined that just three months ago his own younger sister had passed away.
Su Hao.
He was Su Pingping’s half-brother who shared the sa father.
His relationship with Su Zi could only be considered distant, and in the past, their interactions were not many, at least that’s what Su Zi believed.
“Isn’t it okay for to co and see you now that you’ve finally co back from the Eastern Capital?”
“Indeed, it wasn’t easy.”
Su Zi spoke ambiguously.
Su Hao looked at the woman in front and said after a glance, “Has your injury healed?”
Facing his straightforward question, Su Zi had no intention of tarrying with him and responded directly, “Who sent you?
The Su Huimin family?
No, with your personality, you wouldn’t co here to scout for them.
Was it the Third Elder?”
Su Hao chuckled and candidly responded, “This matter has already spread outside by now, it seems like it has even been reported up to the clan leader.”
“Clan leader?” Su Zi laughed lightly behind her veil.
Three months ago, it was that man who had cast her into the role of the Su Clan’s discarded pawn.
“Yes, the news of your recovery is a big deal for our Su Clan, but I’ve heard that you plan to stay in the Eastern Capital?”
“Yes, the Eastern Capital was where I broke through and then advanced, it’s a blessed place for my cultivation; I want to stay there.
Does the Third Elder have any opinions?”
Although Su Hao did not admit it just now, his lack of denial was an admission in itself.
Su Zi was now certain that Su Hao was sent by the Third Elder to gauge her intentions.
Combining this with Su Huimin’s earlier words, it was clear that the Third Elder had significant influence over who stays in the Eastern Capital.
“How could that be?
The Third Elder rely sent here to understand your wishes.”
“My intentions are clear.
Is there anything else you wish to ask?”
Su Zi didn’t believe that Su Hao would co without a good reason; since he was here, it must be to persuade him, otherwise, there was no need to make the trip.
“Su Zi, what the Third Elder ans is this.
Now, in the Capital City, Su Chengyu’s montum is on the rise, and you’ve had conflicts with this newly-promoted Saint Envoy, so he does not wish for you to wade into these troubled waters, to prevent any unforeseen incidents…”
“I don’t mind.”
Su Hao’s words were directly interrupted, causing his brows to instantly furrow, and he looked at Su Zi with a hint of dissatisfaction.
“Su Zi, we are all from the sa clan, we can discuss and negotiate whatever the issue may be, everything can be talked through.
You’ve injured Su Wu and a number of others who were competing for this position, and the Third Elder already has many grievances against you; do you really want to continue causing trouble until things are irreparable?”
“The ones insisting on causing trouble are you all.”
Su Zi replied indifferently, then looked Su Hao up and down and said: “At the level of Martial God middle stage, if this were the past, you wouldn’t even be qualified to speak to .”
The indifferent words made Su Hao’s expression turn ugly.
Although he was not much older than Su Zi and had entered the path of Martial Way cultivation around the sa ti, with a talent that exceeded even Su Pingping’s by far, he had never raised his head before the utterly dominant Su Zi.
“Su Zi, things are not as they used to be!
Even if your injuries have healed, your current strength must have been largely affected, right?”
“Want to try it?”
Su Zi said coldly, clearly ready to take action.
Facing Su Zi, who was unwilling to give ground, Su Hao hesitated first instead.
Looking at the opportunistic yet timid Su Hao, Su Zi sneered and said: “If you don’t dare to act, then scram!
You have no place to speak here.
Third Elder, since you’re here, show yourself.”
Watching Su Zi completely ignore him and trying to directly speak with the Third Elder, Su Hao finally lost his patience.
Instantly, his fists were ready, and with the essence of his martial intent perating the heavens and the earth, a fierce wind abruptly targeted Su Zi, and he threw a powerful punch towards Su Zi’s face.
“Style of Great Perfection!”
The Supre Daoist Scripture’s Style of Great Perfection, the ultimate move after the unification of its six forms, when perford by the hand of a Martial God, the force and intent of the punch were far superior to any Fist Technique Su Chengyu had ever executed.
Yet, facing the swiftly approaching Su Hao, Su Zi remained incredibly calm.
The instant his Magic Sword appeared, his entire being vanished from the spot.
Before Su Hao could react, Su Zi had already materialized behind him, with a Sword pointed at the back of Su Hao’s head.
A chill spread throughout his body instantly, and as the force of his punch dissipated into nothingness, an astonished Su Hao’s eyes widened, unable to believe that he didn’t even have the chance to exchange blows with Su Zi!
“Have you truly fully recovered?”
“You can try again, but this ti it will cost you your life,” Su Zi told Su Hao, who dared not make any further moves.
After confirming that the other party had no intention to resist, Su Zi then turned to address soone aside: “Third Elder, are you satisfied now?”
From amidst the nearby vegetation, Su Min, the Su Clan’s Third Elder clad in a long robe, slowly walked out, looking at Su Zi he said: “Your strength indeed ets the criteria, not quite at your peak, but enough to stand your ground against a general Hollow Void Late Stage; however, Su Zi, if you wish to remain in the Capital City, there’s one condition that the clan needs you to agree with.”
“What condition?”
Su Zi asked calmly.
“Within one year, you must eliminate that Su Chengyu.”
