Chapter 286: The Layout
Next, Su Mi recounted in full detail the trip to Qi Mountain, Yang Tian’s Heavenly Blade defeating the tiger demon, and the matter of the hundred-year slavery pact.
"You’ve been foolish!"
Grandmaster Su shook his head after he finished listening.
Seeing her grandfather’s disapproval, Su Mi immediately felt aggrieved and said, "Grandfather, at the time, I just wanted to obtain the inner core, so I said it casually. Who would have thought... who would have thought he would actually come after us!"
But what Su Mi hadn’t expected was Grandmaster Su merely waved his hand upon hearing this and said, "I am not blaming you for agreeing to the hundred-year slavery pact, but rather for your carelessness. After returning, you not only failed to inform me of the matter but also neglected to investigate this Yang Tian, which has left the Su Family utterly unprepared today!"
As he spoke, a cold gleam flashed in Grandmaster Su’s eyes as he continued, "If we had known who Yang Tian was and where he came from, how could our Su Family, given our resources, have ended up in such a situation?"
"Xiao Mi admits her mistake!" Su Mi nodded immediately after hearing this.
Seeing this, Grandmaster Su finally shifted his gaze from Su Mi and looked at the others, asking, "Does anyone know where this Yang Tian has emerged from?"
The Su Family’s upper ranks looked at each other in dismay; clearly, they had no knowledge of Yang Tian’s origins.
Seeing this, Grandmaster Su immediately seemed ready to erupt again.
The hundred-year-old Su Family, now trampled upon, left degraded and humiliated, yet completely ignorant of the perpetrator’s background—how could he not be furious?
