Chapter 9: The City Lord's Son Strives (8)
The complete annihilation of the Xu family in Lofty Mountain City was neither a monumental event nor a trivial one. In the vast Kingdom of Heavenly Wind, it counted as a minor affair. Yet within Lofty Mountain City itself, it was earth-shattering.
Lofty Mountain City lay far from the Su family of Green Stone City. For the Green Stone Su family to have orchestrated the destruction raised eyebrows across the region.
Then, more than twenty years later, the truth finally leaked out: the founder of the original Su family in Lofty Mountain City—the one massacred by the Xu clan—was none other than Su Chen, blood brother to Su Xuehe of the Green Stone Su family. Only then did the pieces fall into place.
"What ruthless patience Su Xuehe showed," people marveled. "He endured in silence for decades, then struck once and wiped the entire Xu clan from existence in a single night!"
Everyone praised Su Xuehe's meticulous planning and cold-blooded resolve. The prestige of the Green Stone Su family soared to unprecedented heights.
Within just a few years, the Su family produced yet another Spirit Vein Realm cultivator. Everything was moving in an upward direction.
Meanwhile, the true architect of it all—Su Chen—sat in Northwind City, watching his chattering little daughter cling to him. A faint smile curved his lips.
In this life, his daughter was named Jiang Mingyue. He still planned to have a son with Wang Bailu and name him Jiang Hao.
Since the Jiang surname did not belong to one of the four great protagonist clans, he would have to compensate with sheer momentum in the name. He now had descendants; he had left his mark on this world.
