"By the way, the bandits of Flying Sky Ridge rarely come down the mountain to raid. He Xiongfei may look rough, but he's extremely cautious. Before this, he had never robbed an escort shipment."
"And this time, He Xiongfei had a very clear target. He came specifically for the Su Family's goods..."
After saying this, Li He left.
He said nothing more than necessary.
Some things only needed to be hinted at.
He believed the Su Family would naturally understand what he meant.
En ŭm̀a
Inside the council hall, everyone's expressions were grave.
"Investigate this secretly and find out who's causing trouble behind the scenes."

Su Zhenzhen spoke coldly.
If they did not get to the bottom of this matter, something similar would happen again in the future.
If Zhenyuan Escort Agency had failed to protect the shipment this time, the consequences for the Su Family would have been unimaginable.
Over the next few days, the Su Family mobilized all its resources to investigate.

Zhang Chen had originally planned to take Zhang Su to pay respects to their parents, but that too was postponed for several days.
Zhang Su was in no hurry.
Every day, he continued cultivating as usual while taking Blood-Replenishing Pills.
Four days passed in succession.

Zhang Su had already consumed a full sixteen Blood-Replenishing Pills.
The results, however, were excellent.

Boom!
A rumbling sound echoed within Zhang Su's body.
His qi and blood seemed almost ready to burst out of his body.
Swish.
Zhang Su opened his eyes.
He sensed the amount of qi and blood within his body.

"Two hundred wisps of qi and blood..."
Zhang Su murmured softly.
He had finally reached two hundred wisps of qi and blood.
For most martial artists who did not cultivate top tier cultivation methods, the maximum amount of qi and blood they could cultivate was only one hundred wisps!
Yet Zhang Su now possessed twice that amount.
Moreover, two hundred wisps of qi and blood was basically the benchmark for the Top Ten Outer Disciples of the Origin Returning Sect.
Ѐnu m̀ ӓ
The most basic requirement for becoming one of the Top Ten Outer Disciples was to cultivate at least two hundred wisps of qi and blood.
Now, Zhang Su had finally reached that level as well.

However, two hundred wisps of qi and blood was far from his limit.
He cultivated a peerless cultivation method.
His upper limit exceeded five hundred wisps!
Zhang Su looked at his remaining Blood-Replenishing Pills.
Е̇_n̄ um̌ a . і̂ d
Of the forty Blood-Replenishing Pills he had brought down from the mountain, only sixteen remained.
At most, they would sustain him for another four days.
Therefore, he could not stay with the Su Family for too long.
Zhang Su got up and left the room.

He planned to explain the situation to his elder brother and return to the mountain as soon as possible after paying respects to their parents.
"Second Brother, you're just in time. We've made progress with the investigation. Come listen as well."
Е̇ ň üm̌ a. і̊ d
Zhang Su had only just found his elder brother and had not even spoken before Zhang Chen pulled him into the First Branch's reception hall.
His sister-in-law handed Hutou over to a maid.
Only Zhang Su, Su Zhenzhen, and Zhang Chen remained in the reception hall.
Zhang Chen and Su Zhenzhen exchanged a glance.
Then Zhang Chen said, "Second Brother, the investigation has produced results. The one secretly targeting our Su Family is the Wei Family of Clear Spring Prefecture!"
"The Wei Family?"

Zhang Su carefully searched his memories.
He remembered very little about the Wei Family.
The Wei Family seemed to be nothing more than an unremarkable martial arts clan.
They were nowhere near comparable to the Jiang Family.
So how did the Wei Family dare target the Su Family?
Seemingly noticing Zhang Su's confusion, Zhang Chen explained, "The Wei Family was originally just an ordinary martial arts clan, inferior even to the Jiang Family. But then the Wei Family produced a genius named Wei Yunzhou."
É n̊ ū m̌ а
"Three years ago, Wei Yunzhou cultivated inner force and became an inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect. Since then, the Wei Family has begun aggressively expanding its influence. They have even gotten involved in the businesses of various merchant associations, trying to gather enormous wealth to support Wei Yunzhou's cultivation."
"It is precisely because the Wei Family has been so aggressive that the Jiang Family chose to form a marriage alliance with the Su Family. They hope to use the Su Family's wealth to help Jiang Cheng cultivate inner force and become an Inner Force Realm martial artist. Then he will be able to contend with the Wei Family on equal footing."

"As for why the Wei Family has set its sights on our Su Family... the reason is actually very simple. Silver! Our Su Family is known as the 'Half-City Su Family' and is one of the wealthiest families in Clear Spring Prefecture. If the Wei Family can swallow all of the Su Family's businesses, they will be able to support Wei Yunzhou's cultivation far more effectively."
Zhang Su understood.
He could not help asking, "An inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect carries enormous weight! If the Wei Family decides to use force..."
Su Zhenzhen smiled and replied, "The Wei Family doesn't dare resort to force, at least not for now. That's because our Su Family also sponsors an inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect. Until Wei Yunzhou is capable of suppressing that inner disciple, the Wei Family can only resort to underhanded methods and won't dare openly attack us."
Ẁ е̂bṅ о v́êl Е̌ n̆ ǔm̆a
Zhang Su understood.
Of course. There was also sponsorship.
Even Gu Ying dared sponsor him, so how could the Su Family possibly not sponsor anyone?
Given the Su Family's wealth, sponsoring an inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect was no problem at all.

"However, the Wei Family keeps pressing us, so we need to prepare in advance."
"We originally wanted to see whether we could sponsor another, stronger inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect, but now it seems that wouldn't be worthwhile. Sponsoring a stronger inner disciple would require an enormous amount of silver, and with the Su Family currently being targeted by the Wei Family from the shadows, that would be difficult."
Ё n̂ũ m ӑ. іḋ
"Besides, the inner disciple we sponsor only handles matters concerning our Su Family in a strictly businesslike manner. So your elder brother and I have decided to sponsor you instead. We'll follow the standard for Grade One Sponsorship and give you five thousand taels of silver every month."
"As long as you can cultivate inner force and become an inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect, the threat posed by the Wei Family will naturally disappear."
Su Zhenzhen's words slightly startled Zhang Su.
Five thousand taels of silver every month?
The Su Family was actually willing to agree to that?
After all, when Gu Ying had offered him Grade One Sponsorship, there had been an element of gambling involved.

Moreover, Zhang Su had demonstrated a peerless cultivation method at the time.
But Su Zhenzhen did not even know he cultivated a peerless cultivation method.
And Su Zhenzhen's tone was sincere.
Her trust in Zhang Su came entirely from the heart!
"Elder Brother, Grade One Sponsorship is no small matter. You..."
Before Zhang Su could finish speaking, Zhang Chen interrupted him.
Ĕň ü m̆а̊. і d
Zhang Chen said solemnly, "Second Brother, Zhenzhen was the one who took the initiative to propose giving you Grade One Sponsorship. In the future, just make sure you don't let your sister-in-law down, and don't let the Su Family down."
"The Wei Family is powerful now, and you've ruined their plan. Once you return to the Origin Returning Sect, you must be even more wary of Wei Yunzhou. You have to be cautious in everything you do."

"From now on, you have only one priority. Cultivate inner force as quickly as possible and become an inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect! Only then will you be able to oppose Wei Yunzhou, and only then will our Su Family be able to stand against the Wei Family!"
Zhang Su understood.
Zhang Chen and his sister-in-law were placing all their hopes on him.
They would no longer look for a stronger inner disciple of the Origin Returning Sect.
Е̃ń üm̊ ä
After all, no matter how strong another inner disciple was, he would still be an outsider.
Zhang Su, on the other hand, was one of their own.
There was the bond of family between them, as well as trust!
"Elder Brother, Sister-in-law, I understand."

Zhang Su nodded.
"Good. Here are five thousand taels in banknotes. If it isn't enough, you can have Uncle Guan bring a message back in the future. We can give you even more!"
Е n̈ù m̊а.і̊d̈
Su Zhenzhen spoke generously.
Zhang Su smiled as well.
His sister-in-law truly was decisive.
And she handled matters openly and straightforwardly.
Looking at things now, perhaps his elder brother becoming a live-in son-in-law had not been a bad thing after all.
That afternoon, Zhang Su returned to their old home with his elder brother and younger sister to pay respects to their parents.

Their parents were buried in Zhang Family Village.
After their parents died, the clansmen of Zhang Family Village divided up the Zhang Family's property, even taking the family residence into the clan's possession.
They claimed it was for the sake of "raising" the three Zhang siblings.
But what had actually happened?
All three siblings remembered perfectly well just how difficult their lives had been in Zhang Family Village.
Therefore, once they grew up, the three of them resolutely left Zhang Family Village.

Because Zhang Chen could read and write, he managed to make a living in the prefectural city. Later, he even married into the Su Family as a live-in son-in-law.
But neither Zhang Chen nor Zhang Su ever had any dealings with the people of Zhang Family Village again.

After the three siblings paid respects to their parents, they soon returned to the Su Family.
The moment they arrived, Su Zhenzhen approached them with a grave expression.
"Husband, Second Brother, we have a guest."
"A guest?"
W̊еb̃n о́v̊ е l̃ Ӗñ um а
Judging from Su Zhenzhen's expression, this guest seemed rather "unexpected."
The two of them then went to the reception hall and saw who had come to visit.
"Jiang Cheng?"
Zhang Su truly was surprised.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Why had Jiang Cheng come?
Jiang Cheng and the Su Family were indeed connected through a marriage alliance.
W̌еb̄ n̈ о́ v е̂ l̀ Ѐ n um а̂
But Jiang Cheng's marriage partner was Su Mulan of the Third Branch, which had nothing to do with the First Branch.
Even if Jiang Cheng came to the Su residence, he should have gone to the Third Branch.
Why had he come to the First Branch?
