“Hanny is dead? That’s impossible!”
Su Yunming’s aura surged out like waves, putting enormous pressure on Su Mingxuan and the others.
“He’s really dead.”
Su Mingxuan spoke fearlessly—after all, his father was here. He continued, “We were being chased by at least a thousand fiend beasts. There were even several grade-two fiend beasts. Even the Three-Tailed Fiend Monkeys, the strongest among the grade-two fiend beasts, were there. Even the guard captain, Pang Qing, died, so you shouldn’t be too hopeful, fourth uncle.”
“Pang Qing stayed behind to distract them, but Su Han was being ridiculous and ignored our advice because he wanted to get some fiend crystals. Thinking about it now, he really brought it upon himself,” Su Minghui added.
Su Minghui and Su Mingxuan were in the same boat, and had already rehearsed what to say beforehand.
Anyway, Su Han had already died. So, they could say whatever they wanted—no one could refute them.
As for Hu Feng and the others…
As Hu Feng listened to Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui, his face remained expressionless, yet he was continuously twitching internally with a burning rage.
However, Hu Feng was powerless. He didn’t dare to explain what had actually happened, since his wife and children were all staying in the Su Estate.
From the look of things, both Su Han and Pang Qing were dead. Any further explanation would only bring Hu Feng more trouble.
“Who did you say brought it upon himself?”
Su Yunming’s glare and words turned cold. “I don’t believe that Hanny would be so greedy. You two must be lying!”
“Fourth brother, will you calm down?”
Su Yunchen snickered in his heart and stood up to speak. “Su Han is already dead; what good will your anger do? I think you should start preparing for his funeral.”
“What kind of dog fart is your mother letting out?!” Su Yunming cursed directly.
“Who are you cursing at?”
Su Yunchen said gloomily, “My mother is your mother. Be careful with your words!”
Su Yunming clenched his fists and teeth tightly. His face was extremely cold and his eyes glared straight at Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui. Who knew what he was thinking?
He probably even thought that it was the two of them that had caused Su Han’s death.
Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui felt somewhat nervous from being glared by Su Yunming, but they clenched their teeth and kept quiet, thinking that Su Yunming couldn’t do anything to them.
“Fourth brother…”
Right at that moment, Third Patriarch Su Yunpeng said, “Su Han really bit off more than he could chew. Don’t be so angry; didn’t you lose hope when he had berserk Qi deviation a while ago? Now that he’s dead, just pretend he had Qi deviation and don’t make everyone so worried. Wouldn’t you agree?”
“How could you say such things?”
Su Yunming’s eyes turned bloodshot and seemed like they were about to pop. His dragon aura also spread everywhere, and there were faint signs of an impulse to start a fight.
“Why? Are you going to hit me?”
Su Yunpeng frowned and coldly said, “Let me tell you that even though you’re the Grand Patriarch of the Su Clan, you can’t just do whatever you want!”
“Hahaha…”
Su Yunming suddenly laughed. “Ever since I became Grand Patriarch, you two dogs have been working against me to take the position of Grand Patriarch for yourselves.
“Alright; you guys want to be Grand Patriarch? Fine; so be it! However, let’s see if you can live long enough to enjoy it!”
As soon as Sun Yunming finished speaking, his body trembled, about to make a move.
“Fourth Brother!”
Su Yunlie stood up and yelled, “Calm yourself!”
“Calm myself? Hanny’s dead; how can you expect me to be calm?” Su Yunming said angrily.
“He was killed by the fiend beasts, not us. What are you so mad at us for?” Su Yunchen snorted.
“Shut up!” Su Yunlie yelled over his shoulder.
Su Yunchen pursed his lips and didn’t say anything more.
“Well, this is quite a scene.” Right then, a faint voice suddenly came from outside the hall.
The voice sounded somewhat familiar. Everyone turned their heads to see two figures walking towards them.
“Hanny?”
Su Yunming quickly spotted Su Han. He was suddenly overcome with ecstasy, and darted towards Su Han.
“Hanny… it really is my Hanny. Are you alright?”
“Why wouldn’t I be?”
Su Han shot a glance at Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui, and made some guesses of his own. Then, he said on the spot, “Is there someone that doesn’t want me to be?”
“Hahaha… not only do some people want something to happen to you, but some people even want you dead!” Su Yunming laughed.
Hearing this, Su Mingxuan’s and Su Minghui’s hearts suddenly sank.
Their faces had turned unsightly as soon as Su Han appeared. They thought to themselves, Shouldn’t he be dead? How did he survive after being surrounded by so many fiend beasts?
Su Yunchen and Su Yunpeng looked at their two sons, as if they were saying, ‘Shouldn’t Su Han be dead? Why is he back?’
However, Su Han had already walked into the hall at this moment.
“Hanny, before you returned, Su Minghui and Su Mingxuan said you were being impulsive. When you were attacked by the fiend beasts, you got greedy and wanted to get more fiend beast crystal cores. So you ended up dying in Fiend Beast Mountain Range. Is this true?” Su Yunming returned to his seat in high spirits.
The apple didn’t fall far from the tree. Su Yunming knew what kind of people Su Yunchen and Su Yunpeng were, and naturally also knew what their sons were like.
“Oh?”
Su Han glanced at Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui, and said with a faint smile, “They said that?”
“Yes.” Su Yunming nodded.
Su Yunlie also noticed that something wasn’t right. So, he lifted his head to look at Su Han and ask, “Hanny, so what really happened?”
Before Su Han could speak, Pang Qing interjected, “When the others and I were surrounded by the fiend beasts and all hope of escaping was lost, this subordinate decided to stay behind to let the rest escape. Su Han knew that I would definitely die if I was alone, and decided to stay behind with me. I had wanted to get Hu Feng and Zhang Hai to take Young Master Su Han with them, but Young Master Mingxuan and Young Master Minghui threatened their families to get them to leave Su Han behind.”
“That’s a lie!”
Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui’s hearts pounded hard and quickly. They immediately said, “It was Su Han that was being greedy and wanted to send himself to die. How dare you come and throw the blame on us?”
“Well, it’s hard to tell who’s blaming whom.” Pang Qing snorted.
Pang Qing now completely sided with Su Han.
Su Yunlie’s face darkened, and he asked, “Hu Feng, is this true?”
Hu Feng wanted to speak, but Su Mingxuan and Su Minghui glared hard at him. Eventually, he let out a sigh, but no words came out.
“Speak the truth. I’ll guarantee your family’s safety,” Su Yunlie said again.
Hearing this, Hu Feng finally felt relieved and immediately said, “It is true. Back then, Big Brother Pang Qing offered to stay behind. We were desperate and intended to help the three young masters to escape. However, Young Masters Minghui and Mingxuan forced us to leave Young Master Su Han behind in Fiend Beast Mountain Range. Fortunately, he survived.”
“You bastards!”
Su Yunlie slammed down his hand on the chair, and it immediately shattered into pieces.
