Su Qing stood in front of the pit, not a speck of dust from the explosion had stuck to her.
Just now, Su Yan thought he had secretly placed the explosive talisman on Su Qing's back and detonated it, but unexpectedly, a gust of wind blew by and the explosive talisman ended up sticking to his chest!
Before the talisman could be torn off, the explosive talisman had already detonated.
A second before the explosion, Su Yan seemed to see the cold smile on Su Qing's lips and hear her mouth movements.
"Go to hell!"
Su Yan was completely stunned. The moment the explosion occurred, he was still thinking about what exactly happened.
Why did the explosive tag blow onto me?
There was no pain; he felt no agony whatsoever. In an instant, with a loud bang, he was reduced to a bloody, mangled corpse.
"Su Qing! I'm going to kill you!" The Third Elder stared at his grandson's corpse, his eyes turning red, and he went completely mad!
Su Qing didn't move, only watching him with a cold smile. Because Su Yingcheng was already standing in front of her, blocking the Third Elder's attack.
“Third Elder, this is a competition! It’s a competition held before the Ancestor to open the ancestral hall. Just now, it was clearly Su Yan who took out the explosive talisman, intending to kill Su Qing. Now that the explosive talisman has been used on himself, he deserves it,” Su Yingcheng said.
"Go to hell! She deserves it! Su Qing, I'm going to kill Su Qing! She killed my grandson! Clan killing each other deserves to be punished with death!" The Third Elder drew his sword with a whoosh.
Su Yingcheng refused to back down, taking the sword Su Qing handed him and saying sternly, "Third Elder, the Ancestor hasn't said anything! This means there's nothing wrong with this competition. If you continue to cause trouble like this, don't blame me for taking action!"
Su Yingcheng is the most powerful cultivator in the Su family. The Third Elder hasn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage yet, so how could he be a match for Su Yingcheng?
The Third Elder, relying on his seniority, wanted to abuse his age and influence.
Su Yingcheng, however, was not buying it.
"I am the head of the Su family! Third Elder, I have already compromised with your demands for a contest. Now that Su Qing has won, if you are not satisfied, then come on, I will fight you!" Su Yingcheng said.
The Third Elder immediately deflated; he was no match for Su Yingcheng.
"Su Qing has won this competition! If any of the younger generation are still not satisfied, they may come forward and challenge her." Su Yingcheng glanced at the crowd of onlookers.
No one stepped forward; in fact, they all took a step back.
Just kidding. Su Huan was pretty good, right? He was disemboweled by Su Qing in just a few moves. Su Yan was even more powerful than Su Huan; he was killed by an explosive talisman.
How many lives do they have? Who would dare to challenge them?
"In that case, the one who will be accepted as an outer disciple of the Xuanling Sect is Su Qing!" Su Yingcheng made the final decision.
Su Yingcheng turned to look at Su Qing, a smile playing on his lips.
Although the three elders didn't interfere much in the Su family's affairs, the three old men were secretly cultivating their own offspring. Among them, Su Huan and Su Yan were the most outstanding. Now that Su Qing had suppressed them both and even killed Su Yan, not only would Su Yingcheng's position as the head of the family be secure, but their lineage's status in the family would also be as stable as Mount Tai.
"Good, good, as expected of my daughter, Su Yingcheng." Su Yingcheng liked Su Qing more and more the more he looked at her.
Oh dear, I was thinking that if I had a daughter with dual spiritual roots, I would be a winner in life and the hope of the Su family. I didn't expect that my daughter with dual spiritual roots would be unreliable. Now, my daughter with three spiritual roots is the hope of the Su family.
"Father, don't forget to write my mother's name in the family genealogy," Su Qing said calmly.
Su Yingcheng laughed heartily and said, "Your mother is a great hero of our Su family for giving birth to you! Alright, while the ancestral hall is open, I will write her name in the family genealogy. Not only will I write it in the genealogy, but I will also posthumously honor her as my deceased wife, Su Yingcheng."
Deceased wife?
This is not as simple as just adding a name.
This means that Su Qing's mother became the legal wife of the Su family, and Su Qing was the legitimate daughter of the Su family, instead of being a concubine's daughter registered under Ling Wanrou's name.
The three elders who usually opposed Su Yingcheng were powerless to refute his decision. Taking advantage of the opening of the ancestral hall, Su Yingcheng wanted to bring out the family genealogy.
"Su Yingcheng!"
Just then, a loud shout rang out, and Ling Wanrou rushed out with a face bruised and swollen from being beaten!
Because of Su Ruoshan's matter, Ling Wanrou was beaten half to death by Su Yingcheng and could only lie in bed to recover from her injuries.
When she first heard that the three elders were preventing Su Qing from joining the Xuanling Sect, she was quite happy. Later, when she heard that Su Qing was going to compete with Su Huan and Su Yan, she gloated, thinking that Su Qing was doomed.
But unexpectedly, news came shortly afterward that Su Qing had disemboweled Su Huan and blown up Su Yan!
Su Yingcheng immediately wanted to add Su Qing's biological mother to the family genealogy.
In fact, Ling Wanrou didn't care about this. It was just to add another concubine's name to Su Yingcheng's record. The Su family had done this before.
There was a time when a family head would record his favorite beauty in the family genealogy, simply by noting her name, which had no impact on his principal wife.
However, Su Yingcheng actually remembered Su Qing's biological mother as his deceased wife!
That beautiful woman, whose name I didn't even know, became Su Yingcheng's deceased wife. So what did she become?
She was Su Yingcheng's legal wife, his cultivation partner, and her daughter, Su Ruoshan, was the legitimate daughter.
Su Yingcheng is trampling on Ling Wanrou's dignity, not only her dignity, but also the Ling family's.
Ling Wanrou hurriedly sent someone to the Ling family to tell them about the matter, while she herself headed towards the ancestral hall to stop them, disregarding everything else.
"Su Yingcheng, I disagree!" Ling Wanrou said shrilly.
Su Yingcheng just looked at her coldly; he was now utterly disgusted with Ling Wanrou.
If he loved Ling Wanrou so much and was so willing to lift her to heaven when she gave birth to Su Ruoshan, who had dual spiritual roots, then now that Su Ruoshan has refused to become an inner disciple of the Xuanling Sect, he hates Ling Wanrou as much as he is disappointed in his legitimate daughter.
Su Yingcheng felt that Su Ruoshan had become like this because of Ling Wanrou.
It was Ling Wanrou, Su Ruoshan's mother, who corrupted her.
Even a fool would know that the Cloud Sword Sect is no match for the Profound Spirit Sect, yet Su Ruoshan is even less than that fool, willing to ruin herself and offend the people sent by the Profound Spirit Sect just to go to the Cloud Sword Sect.
He felt that Ling Wanrou was solely responsible for all of this!
Ling Wanrou felt Su Yingcheng's indifference, and her heart sank. However, the thought that her older brother would be arriving soon gave her a little more confidence.
The Su family and the Ling family were not far apart. When Ling Wanrou's people delivered a letter to the Ling family, the head of the Ling family, Ling Yuan, was furious upon hearing it.
Last time, when Ling Yuan heard that Su Qing had snatched Su Ruoshan's spot to join the Xuanling Sect, he led a large group of people to her door. When he arrived, he found out that, oh, it turned out that Su Ruoshan was causing trouble and insisted on going to the Yunjian Sect. His own sister was almost divorced and sent back to her parents' home.
It was indeed a huge loss of face; they slunk away with their men.
