When only the three of them were left in the inner room, Su Xuan spoke again.
He coldly said to the Sect Leader, "Back then, I entrusted Su Li to your care, yet you allowed the disciples under your sect to harm her deeply..."
The Sect Leader, knowing he was in the wrong, remained silent.
It seems Changli has co to understand her feelings. He realized that from today onwards, an endless rift may develop between Changli and the Wuwei Sect, only with Su Li’s return could it possibly be resolved.
-----------------
Three days after the incident, the Su Family in Jiangnan Prefecture welcod an unexpected guest.
Just like more than twenty years ago, a white-robed immortal descended from the sky as if stepping down a staircase.
"Immortal, immortal..." This ethereal presence excited everyone in the city to the point where they prostrated themselves on the ground.
"So there really are immortals in this world."
After briefly recovering from the corrosion of demonic Qi, Su Xuan rushed over at the fastest speed.
Upon fully understanding his feelings for Su Li, he realized he was in trouble.
He knew how much his wife cared about the Su Family.
A rare expression of anxiety appeared on Su Xuan’s face.
He didn’t bother to hide his form and appeared directly in Jiangnan City, walking straight towards the Su Family, indifferent to the uproar he caused.
The Xu Family and the Yan Family, when receiving the news, were plunged into despair.
They had thought they hit a snag. Their investigations clearly showed that the Su Family had no more connections with immortals. Hence, after a long period of careful planning and sacrificing two promising children—one marrying into the Su Family, one taking a Su Family woman as a bride—they decided to act with great caution.
Yet, not only did an aunt erge, but also an immortal appeared.
Even though three days ago, the immortal simply threw their people out with a minor punishnt, who could know if more terrifying asures awaited them.
These three days had been lived in fear and dread.
Xu Huaxing beca the primary target of bla.
The Xu Family Head looked at his daughter, whose cheek was swollen on one side, with an ugly expression on his face and angrily said, "Why did you not ntion that person whom the Su Family calls aunt?"
"She is none other than Miss Su who left ho twenty years ago in search of immortals and the Dao."
If they had known that Miss Su was back, they would never have dared to act recklessly, let alone covet the Su Family’s possessions.
Xu Huaxing felt wronged, lowered her head not daring to speak, and simply endured the scolding and beating silently.
She never believed that the person was indeed Miss Su, let alone warned her family.
"Alright, quickly pack your things, I’ll have soone send you back to the Su Family."
Xu Huaxing couldn’t believe it, "Dad, are you not concerned about my life or death?" Having betrayed Su Qing, what good end could she et if she returned to the Su Family?
And the sa situation occurred in the Yan Family, except Yan Hui managed to coax Su Fei’er with a few sweet words, convincing her to return and plead for her in-laws.
Setting aside the annoyance of the Xu and Yan families, the Su Family was not having a great ti either.
Having just experienced a nasty event where they narrowly escaped being wiped out, the mood of everyone in the Su Family was not great.
The ones in the worst mood were the elder couple of the Su Family.
They had witnessed with their own eyes how the Communication Talisman ignited with no response.
While they couldn’t rely on others, at the crucial mont, the talisman they considered their family’s life-saving charm failed, indicating the talisman’s owner didn’t care about them, regardless of the reason.
If Su Li hadn’t suddenly returned ho, the consequences....
Fear, anger, disappointnt, a myriad of emotions surged in the hearts of the Su Family mbers.
Old Master Su felt terrible, not just for his daughter, but also for himself.
He truly considered Su Xuan as one of his own sons.
And the person they had been talking about, to their surprise, appeared in the Su Family unexpectedly.
Outside the hall, without even alerting the maid waiting at the door, a figure appeared lightly.
Before the maid could speak in surprise, the figure had already stepped into the doorway.
Su Li had sensed Su Xuan’s presence when he first arrived in Jiangnan City.
However, she didn’t even change her lazy sitting posture, responding to the Su Family’s inquiries as if nothing was amiss.
Until now, the Su Family couldn’t quite believe that their daughter had truly beco an all-powerful immortal being.
Seeing her unchanged appearance made them speculate, but they didn’t dare think along those lines.
Back then, Su Xuan had said that Su Li’s aptitude was extrely poor, but assured them that with him around, he would never let her suffer.
Considering the strange thods of immortals, preserving the appearance of a mortal woman should not be too difficult, right?
For this reason, although they reluctantly agreed, they let their daughter leave with him.
Parents always wish for their children to lead better lives.
But now, seeing Su Li wield such power so easily, the regret and pain in their hearts only grew instead of diminishing.
Even without experiencing it personally, who wouldn’t know that the Immortal Path is fraught with dangers, only through enduring countless hardships and incalculable pain can one build an achievent.
There’s nothing in the world that cos for free.
And at this very mont, while the Su Family was imagining all of Su Li’s tragic experiences, facing the suddenly appearing culprit, they disregarded the pressure of an immortal; Old Master Su waved his cane and struck Su Xuan.
"I’ll beat you to death, you promised to take good care of Ah Lee...."
Seeing this, Su Bingchao felt a wave of satisfaction, but he quickly realized.
No, no, how could this person appear here?
The second thought was, damn it, he’s an immortal now, what if Dad gets retaliated against for hitting him....
After hitting him, Old Master Su also felt a little dazed.
Su Xuan stood motionless, allowing the cane to fall on his body, his eyes intently fixed on Su Li.
In his eyes was a deep, yearning longing, with countless emotions woven into a profound gaze that held Su Li tightly.
Su Li lifted her eyelids slightly, cast a cool glance at Su Xuan, and then turned her head to speak to Su Bingchao, "Take Dad and Mom back first, they can’t handle such exertions at their age."
Su Bingchao, although he had once harshly said that when next eting Su Xuan, he would definitely tackle and hit him,
but facing the real person, just the imposing aura of a cultivator was unbearable for him.
When only the two of them remained in the hall, Su Li lazily asked, "Is there sothing?"
"If you want to ask about the things you left in the private treasury, there’s only one result... and that is, no."
"No, I don’t," Su Xuan quickly replied, "I just wanted to see you."
Su Li, like shooing away a cat or dog, "Now that you’ve seen , you can leave."
Su Li’s attitude at this mont made Su Xuan’s heart ache even more, and along with the joy of seeing Su Li, his expression beca increasingly forlorn, and his face grew more and more tense.
"The Su Family is fine...."
Su Li: "Heh."
"You’ve been tangled up with Leng Piaopiao, I’m afraid you forgot about the incident at the Su Family, didn’t you?"
Su Xuan wanted to explain, but found no starting point, as when the incident happened, he was indeed with Leng Piaopiao.
And the fact that he didn’t arrive until three days after the incident was also true.
