The two tied-up elders looked at each other in shock, and saw fear in each other's eyes.

Mid-Emperor Level!

How is it possible? How old is that little girl? Their hearts were filled with confusion and shock. They could never have imagined that this little girl who looked young actually had the strength of a mid-level emperor.

At the same time, the Su Family Ancestral Hall was as quiet as a deep lake, but this tranquility was broken by a series of crisp cracking sounds.

That was the sound of the Su family's children's life plates breaking. One after another, like fragile glass, crumbled in the darkness, and the debris scattered all over the ground.

This unusual movement quickly alarmed the bigwigs of the Su family, and it was as if a huge rock was thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples to appear.

Inside the Su family's meeting room, the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if water could drip out of it.

Su Hai sat in the main seat with a gloomy face. The seat seemed to be shrouded by the low pressure emanating from him, and the air around him became depressing.

His eyes were like sharp arrows, scanning the people below, and he asked in an unclear tone: "What's going on?"

The Great Elder stood up, his face full of seriousness and worry, and slowly explained in detail how eight life plates had been broken in a row: "Someone is assassinating the descendants of the clan."

When the second elder heard the news, he stood up indignantly, his eyes wide open, like burning flames: "Damn it, someone actually dared to reach out to the Su family."

The third elder frowned slightly, his eyes flickering with thought. After pondering for a moment, he guessed, "Could it be someone from the royal family?"

His voice was not loud, but it was like throwing a stone into the calm lake, causing a huge commotion.

When the Great Elder heard the Third Elder's guess, he immediately shouted angrily: "What nonsense!"

The shout was like a loud thunder, and it made the windows of the conference room tremble slightly.

There was a stern warning in his eyes, which made everyone dare not speak out.

The royal family of Tianxing Kingdom and the Su family have always been on friendly terms. If some people hear about it, it will not be a good thing for the Su family.

Su Hai frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Send someone to check."

Gu Li and his companions met up in an inn in a small county town outside the imperial city.

in the room

Except for Mu Yunxi and Lin Yuchen who were injured, everyone else was fine.

Gu Li sat at a table, his chin supported by his hands, his eyes flickering with thought, and he said slowly: "There is only one left, Su Xingzhen."

Su Yiyun leaned against the wall, crossed his arms, shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's spare him for now. He's staying at the Su family and won't come out. So many people have died. My father will definitely send someone to investigate."

Mu Yunxi frowned and said unwillingly, "I'm a little unwilling to finish killing one more!"

Gu Li frowned after hearing what they said, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Let's see what happens first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow."

She felt a little regretful and thought secretly: If I had known earlier, I should have killed Su Xingzhen first. If one of them dies, maybe they won’t notice something is wrong so quickly.

Su Hai sat in the study, the candlelight flickered, casting varying degrees of light and shadow on his serious face.

He looked deeply at the results of the investigation brought back by the people below, his brows slightly furrowed, and some guesses gradually arose in his mind.

The investigation revealed that the murder was committed by six young men.

All six of them wore masks, hiding their faces and making it impossible to see their true appearance.

Judging from the traces of spiritual power fluctuations and various signs left at the scene, their cultivation level is between the peak of the royal level and the middle of the emperor level.

This is a strength range that cannot be underestimated. Young people who can reach this level must be extraordinary.

Su Hai's gaze became increasingly profound, his mind constantly pondering various connections.

It just so happened that those who died were the ones who had framed his son in the past.

It just so happened that his son had five very good friends.

It just so happened that Su Yiyu was not at the Su family.

Su Hai gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "Damn brat."

He felt mixed emotions. He was angry that his son had done such a thing without telling him, but he was also relieved that his son had such a group of friends who were willing to stand up for him.

Thinking that there was still one person who had not been killed, Su Hai's thoughts turned to Su Xingzhen.

He thought again of the elder who was responsible for protecting Su Xingzhen. Su Hai couldn't help but rub his forehead, his heart full of worry and helplessness.

He took out the sound transmission talisman from his arms and gently injected spiritual power into his hands to activate it.

"Smelly boy, where are you?" Su Hai's voice came through the sound transmission talisman, with a barely perceptible hint of anxiety in his tone.

Soon, Su Yiyun responded.

His voice came from the sound transmission note: "What? We are on our way back to the academy."

Su Hai sneered and thought to himself: This kid still wants to deceive me.

He sent a message back again, his voice carrying unquestionable majesty: "Do you think you can fool me? Tell me where you are. If you try to kill Su Xingzhen beyond your capabilities, I will kill you."

Su Yiyun held the sound transmission talisman in his hand, and his expression changed slightly.

He raised his head, looked at the five people in front of him, smiled bitterly and said, "It's over, my dad found out."

Gu Li looked calm. She shook her head and said calmly, "It's okay. Tell him the location."

Su Hai's tone was very calm. He didn't sound like he was blaming them for killing those men before. Instead, it sounded like he was worried that when they went to kill Su Xingzhen, they would be killed by the strong man who was protecting him.

Not long after, Su Hai came to their inn in a hurry.

He strode into the room, his eyes sweeping over the people sitting in front of him.

All six of them looked like good kids, with their eyes lowered and their hands neatly placed on their knees, like little kids who had made a mistake and were waiting to be scolded by adults.

When Su Hai looked at them like this, the anger in his heart suddenly rose up.

He tried to endure it again and again, but the anger in his heart was like a volcano about to erupt, and finally he could no longer bear it.

He slapped the table hard, and with a loud "bang", the sturdy table was instantly shattered, with wood chips flying everywhere.

"You are so capable, but you dare to kill my disciples." Su Hai's voice was like thunder, echoing in the room.

However, these six good kids seemed to be frightened. They just lowered their heads slightly, said nothing, and still looked like they knew they were wrong.

Su Hai couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and secretly complained in his heart: These little brats are still pretending in front of me.

Su Hai took a deep breath, tried to make his voice sound calmer, and said, "Okay, stop pretending."

The six of them raised their heads with innocent looks, as if their faces were saying: Why are you pretending? We don't understand what you are saying.

There was confusion in their eyes, as if they really didn't know what Su Hai was talking about.
