"I should tell you too."
Su Sihan exhaled a puff of smoke, blurring his face in an instant.
"Three hundred years ago, our Su family was one of the four great families of Daxia. We were powerful and dominated the entire southern region."
Su Chen was stunned by the first words Su Sihan said. He blurted out, "What? Three hundred years ago, our Su family was one of the four major families of Daxia? And we even dominated the entire Southern Region?"
Then Su Chen reacted and shook his head and said, "That's not right, uncle. There is no record of it in history books."
Su Sihan smiled and said, "Silly child, history is written by the victors. Our Su family failed, so how could we appear in history books? Things like the Four Great Families of Daxia will never appear in official history. We can only find them in unofficial history. So, to some extent, unofficial history is more true than official history."
Uncle Su Sihan's words revealed even more information. Did the Su family fail three hundred years ago? Did they vanish into history, turning into dust?
"Has our Su family experienced something?"
Su Sihan nodded and said, "About two hundred and eighty years ago, our Su family was targeted and began to decline. The specific reasons have been lost to my generation. We only know that the Xuanyuan Map in our Su family's possession was targeted by the imperial family at the time, leading to the Su family's subsequent downfall."
"During their struggle with the imperial family, the Su family lost the Xuanyuan Map, and suffered a crushing defeat. Only a few of the remaining bloodlines of the vast Su family escaped. We are one of those bloodlines, and so, the destiny of every generation of our Su family has been to find the Xuanyuan Map and revitalize the Su family."
"It's a pity that after so many generations and so many years of searching, our Su family still hasn't been able to find the Xuanyuan Map! This has become a curse for our Su family, and we can only struggle in a cycle of pain."
After hearing what Su Sihan said, Su Chen was shocked.
It turns out that the Su family was once so glorious and dominated the entire southern region.
The Xuanyuan Map was even the Su family's treasure. Unfortunately, because the Xuanyuan Map was too precious, it attracted the covetousness of the royal family at that time, leading to the disaster of genocide!
Originally, after he learned about the existence of the Xuanyuan Map from his great uncle, he did not take it too seriously. However, after listening to his uncle Su Sihan's words, he felt the importance of the Xuanyuan Map to the Su family. This is indeed the mission of every generation of the Su family!
Suddenly thinking of something, Su Chen asked, "So, uncle, what exactly is this so-called Xuanyuan Map? Why did it attract the covetousness of the royal family at that time, and also bring hope of revitalization to Su Chen?"
My uncle thought for a moment and said, "I'm actually not quite sure what the Xuanyuan Map is. It's so old that a lot of information has been lost in the repeated displacement. What has been passed down is the mission of finding the Xuanyuan Map and revitalizing the Su family."
Su Chen closed his eyes and recalled the information he had exchanged with Xuanyuan Tu during this period. He said, "Uncle, Xuanyuan Tu belongs to our Su family, but there are many people looking for it. Before, Grand Tutor Hua came to Nansan City specifically to look for Xuanyuan Tu."
Su Sihan nodded and said, "This is also one of the disasters that befell our Su family. About half a century ago, a traitor in the Su family told everyone about our search for the Xuanyuan Map. Later, after we had finally grown to a considerable size, the Su family was once again razed to the ground!"
At this point, Su Sihan closed his eyes, revealing a painful expression, and slowly said: "My father, your grandfather Su Wenhan, escaped with great difficulty at that time."
"That was a bloody period. It was the Su family's second disaster, and it also completely damaged the Su family's vitality!"
After hearing this, Su Chen fell into silence. He could fully imagine the tragedy and danger at that time. If his grandfather Su Wenhan had not been able to escape, the Su family would probably have been wiped out.
But soon Su Chen thought of a new problem. The current Su family is not just their branch, there are also some relatives.
So, Su Chen asked about this doubt, and Su Sihan said: "Those relatives were just those my father recognized from other Su families at that time. Strictly speaking, they are not our relatives and have no blood relationship with us. At that time, my father did this more to integrate into society and hide his identity as the only son of the Su family."
When Su Chen heard this, he was immediately relieved.
He said that since he was a child, he always felt that his relatives were very different, especially in terms of personality. Those relatives were all profit-driven, and it was very disharmonious to get along with them.
It turns out that we are not relatives at heart, and are just outsiders.
Su Sihan continued, "But it's worth noting that my father's trick was very useful. He really managed to hide and remained safe for half a century. He gradually established the Su Group and secretly investigated the whereabouts of Xuanyuantu."
At this point, he changed the subject and said, "What a pity, he was discovered in the end..."
At this point, Su Chen's heart immediately tightened. He quickly asked, "How was it discovered? What happened afterwards?"
Su Sihan did not answer immediately, but pain flashed in his eyes.
When Su Chen saw his expression, he immediately knew that a fierce battle must have taken place at that time. He also immediately thought of the car accident that his parents had been in without any warning. He was young at the time and didn't think anything of it, but looking back now, there were clues everywhere.
After a while, Su Sihan continued, "My brother and I were trained by our father at a very young age and became warriors. We did not disappoint him, showing excellent martial arts talent and studying very hard. After we came of age, our father told us the truth of what happened and the mission of the Su family, which is to retrieve the Xuanyuan Map and use it to revitalize the Su family and restore its former glory!"
