Chapter 216: The Su Family

In the courtyard, Lian Caiyi was overwhelmed with a deep sense of shock and confusion.

The Mermaid Kingdom had unexpectedly taken the initiative to retreat and even offered to release their prisoner!

This good news came too suddenly and strangely, causing Lian Caiyi to feel dizzy and disoriented.

It felt like a dream.

Beside her, Lu Heng and Yu Huaifeng had a detailed discussion on how to handle this matter. When Yu Huaifeng left, the Chief Minister thought for a moment and decided to remind them of something.

"Among this group of people, apart from King Zhenbei Su Lie from the Youxiong Country in the north, the rest are not worth mentioning."

"However, even this King Zhenbei Su Lie cannot be considered a major threat. The only one to be worried about is a rumored senior elder"

Yu Huaifeng sighed and said, "Among the six people killed by Moluo Sword Master together with Mu Yepeng, there was a person named Su Lin, who was the eldest son of King Zhenbei Su Lie."

"As the eldest son, Su Lin had a great reputation at a young age. He was a renowned young hero and a genius in cultivation in the north."

"At the age of seven, he opened the heavenly door, at the age of thirteen, he refined the five qi in his chest, and at the age of seventeen, he fought against demons, and was forced to fall into the Demon Valley. When he was on the verge of death, he met a senior elder."0Solved

"The senior elder, moved by his talent and ability, took Su Lin in and imparted to him all of his lifelong teachings."

"Since then, Su Lin's cultivation progressed rapidly. At the age of less than twenty, he had refined the five energies in his chest and condensed the three flowers on top, stepping into the realm of true cultivation on the wonderful path."

"Even the elder cultivator Mu Yepeng, who was known as a ruffian, was on equal footing with him and his future was limitless."

"However, this time, he died tragically at the hands of Moluo Sword Master, died young. His father, King Zhenbei, has now come to the Mermaid Kingdom and vowed to avenge his eldest son."

"And the old senior who was rumored to have accepted Su Lin as his disciple may now be in the city as well"

Yu Huaifeng sighed and said, "For the Wolf God, this legendary old senior may be a wary enemy."

"According to legend, although this old senior doesn't reveal his holiness in public, his cultivation is profound and his various secret techniques are as mysterious as those of the ancient great masters."

"When Su Lin conversed with others, he candidly declared without hesitation that his mentor was a pinnacle existence in the world, nearly invincible"

Yu Huaifeng spoke with a sigh, while Lu Heng nodded in surprise.

"Moreover, if this old ascetic cultivator is truly so formidable, perhaps I can ask for his assistance and together we can force out the Moluo Evil Spirit."

"After all, the Moluo Evil Spirit is his slain disciple's enemy, and if I ask for his help, he will surely accept it gladly."

Lu Heng laughed and spoke optimistically, appearing very cheerful.

Yu Huaifeng neither agreed nor disagreed, and after bidding farewell, he went to inform the other parties involved.

Soon, the Mermaid Kingdom was going to hold a public trial on December 8th, inviting famous elders from the South Sea as well as relatives and friends of the parties involved to judge the news of the murder case rapidly spread within the capital.

The cultivators who received this news were all delighted.

Everyone had seen the changes in public opinion in the city before. And which cultivator who was qualified to participate in the Treasure Conference was not a shrewd person?

People noticed all the little actions of King Zhenbei's family and were all waiting to see Mermaid's joke.

Unexpectedly, the lord of the Mermaid Kingdom didn't play by the rules and, with a flick of his hand, transferred all the pressure to King Zhenbei, who had been constantly fidgeting.

The lord of the Mermaid Kingdom shifted effortlessly and not only removed themselves but also took advantage to trick King Zhenbei Su Lie.0Solved

What an incredible being Hanyu Mountain's Wolf God is.0Solved

The being who can stir up the intervention of Immortal Kingdom's Lord Luo Yujun and Hanhai Department's Priest Li Po, and is said to have slain the ancient demon Erba God Man who had rampaged in the South Sea for years Can a mere King Zhenbei provoke such a being?

It is obvious that this trial is making things difficult for Su Lie.

If Su Lie were to rise up in rebellion, he would have to face three parties: the Wolf God, the Li Tribe's Hanhai Department, and the Immortal Kingdom, which might not be in his favor. After the details of the Moluo Sword Master incident were fully disclosed, everyone knew that the killer was the Moluo Evil Spirit, not the body controlled by Moluo.

Logically speaking, there is no reason to involve Miss Huo Feng, who is controlled by Moluo.

After all, Miss Huo Feng, who is a beauty of the South Sea, is also a victim.

But Su Lie vowed before to slew the "vile servant" who killed his son and make Miss Huo Feng bleed to death for his son's demise. If he surrenders and runs away, King Zhenbei of the Youxiong Country will become a complete joke, after such a high-profile declaration of revenge.0Solved

Within the city, public opinion has changed again due to the new information released by the Mermaid Kingdom.

The cultivators who were initially waiting to see the Mermaid's joke are now all curious about how King Zhenbei Su Lie will respond.

The courtyard where King Zhenbei Su Lie reside has also welcomed groups of visitors.

These visitors all have one identity - their loved ones are one of Mu Yepeng's six companions.

Previously, when King Zhenbei acted, he contacted and invited these fellow Taoists for help.

Now that the situation has suddenly changed, everyone has come to seek King Zhenbei's assistance once again.

After all, the Wolf God of Hanyu Mountain is so imposing that no one wants to confront him face to face especially when they are in the wrong.

Originally, they planned to instigate a conflict between the Mermaid Kingdom and the Wolf God, and assist their own side in the process. However, they didn't expect that the Mermaid Kingdom would change its stubborn ways and voluntarily withdraw from the situation.

Thus, the group of people who were rushing forward suddenly realized in astonishment that they were now face to face with the Wolf God

On this afternoon, King Zhenbei's courtyards were lively with a countless number of visitors.

It was not until nightfall that numerous shining jellyfishes floated above the city, illuminating the roads of the city with their eerie blue light. King Zhenbei finally saw off the last visitor.

He returned to the small courtyard with a gloomy expression on his face.

At this moment, Suo Luo, the second son who had been following him all along, couldn't help but speak up, "Father, do we really have to confront the Wolf God face to face?"

Suo Luo's face was full of concern.

Upon hearing his youngest son's words, Su Lie, who had been in a depressed mood all day, glared at him fiercely and scolded, "Do you want your older brother to die in vain? Do you want me to watch as the culprit who killed him gets away with it?"

"That woman called Huo Feng, and that Demon Woman from the Luan Xin GeHmph! This whole thing was caused by those two Demon Women! Your older brother was killed by them!"

Su Lie angrily scolded, "As Lin'er's younger brother, you don't even want to avenge your elder brother? You only care about preserving yourself? Are you afraid of offending the god of Hanyu Mountain?"0Solved

"Do you, a soft bone like you, dare to call yourself Su Lie's son?"
