Chapter 217: How to Lose in this Situation
Su Lie launched into a vehement verbal attack, leaving Su Luo dumbfounded.
"Uh..." he wanted to explain, but seeing his father's enraged expression, he dared not speak.
He was not the eldest brother, didn't possess exceptional talent, nor was he a well-known young talent in the area. He had never brought glory to his father.
Faced with his father's anger, the only thing he could do was hang his head and obediently listen to the scolding.
After Su Lie scolded him, his emotions slightly eased.
Gazing towards the direction of the Mermaid Kingdom's court, Su Lie sneered coldly, "That Hanyu Mountain Wolf God is only acting so arrogant because he knows this is not the territory of our Youxiong Country."
"If he were in our country, would we allow him to behave recklessly?"
"This matter is entirely unjustifiable, even if they talk about it until the end of time! It was his friend who caused the death of my son, yet now he wants to take away the Demon Woman possessed by the evil demon with just a few casual words? He doesn't plan to bring the killer to justice? What a joke!"
"Other people may fear him, but not I, Su Lie!"
"If he has the ability, let him kill me in front of the whole world, so that everyone can see the true selfish and tyrannical face of this so-called noble Wolf God, who is willing to sacrifice everything for his friend."
Su Lie said fiercely, "If I die, our ancestors will never sit idly by."
"The Wolf God is arrogant and domineering, but our Su Family is not inferior either."
Su Lie's words made Su Luo stunned for a moment, thinking of a legend in the family...
"Could it be...that our Su Family really has an ancient ancestor who lived through the ages?" Su Luo was somewhat excited.
Su Lie glanced at him, about to speak, but the door of the small courtyard suddenly opened.
The faint scent of peach blossoms drifted into the courtyard.
Unusually, peach blossoms fell into the water illuminated by jellyfish in the sea, and fell by the father and son.
Meanwhile, the laughter of an old man was heard outside the door.
"That rotten old man from your Su family? Hahaha... his old bones are almost halfway into the soil, and you still expect him to come out of retirement to avenge you? He probably won't even reach the Hanyu Mountain before his bones fall apart... hahaha..."
At the instant the old man's voice sounded, Su Luo was startled and quickly protected himself in front of his father, looking at the old man outside in horror.
"Who are you?!" Su Luo asked in a stern voice. "How dare you break into King Zhenbei's residence?"
However, Su Luo's words were cut short as his father behind him slapped him in the face, sending him three meters away.
Su Luo, covering his swollen face, stood up dazedly and heard his father's angry reproach.
"This is Elder Tao! Your brother's master...rebel! How dare you act recklessly?"
Su Lie's furious rebuke left Su Luo stunned.
He hurriedly knocked heavily on the door, apologizing loudly; "I didn't know that the senior was visiting. Please forgive me."
Su Luo knocked his head heavily, but didn't dare to look at the senior's face.
The old man walking outside the door laughed, saying, "It's alright, no need to apologize. I am not petty-minded. Su Lie, you old boy, you really didn't take care of your son. You slapped him and sent him flying three meters away, didn't you feel sorry?"
The old man's laughter relieved Su Lie, and he hurriedly said, "I was afraid that this rebel had offended the senior, so he was momentarily agitated..."
Elder Tao smiled as he approached the father and son, sitting down without hesitation, as if he were lounging in his own backyard, relaxed and at ease.
He said, "Alright, I didn't come here to watch you beat your son. If you like to beat him, wait until I leave before you do it again. This time I came to inform you of something important, so listen carefully."
Su Lie quickly stood up straight and respectfully saluted when he heard Elder Tao's words. "Whatever you command, Senior."
Seeing Su Lie's respectful demeanor, Elder Tao nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's good that you understand...so I didn't make the trip in vain for my recently deceased disciple."
Elder Tao said, "I believe you have guessed why I am here."
"Su Lin was my only disciple, also the proudest one. Now, he died under the hands of Moluo Evil Spirit without any clear reason. How can I let this go easily?"
"The Wolf God, arrogantly believing in his advanced cultivation, attempted to use his power to oppress others and protect his friends. He is truly domineering and despicable."
"Now that the Mermaid Kingdom doesn't intervene in this matter, it is up to me, an old man, to handle it. You can speak directly at the public trial two days later, and don't be afraid of that old wolf."
"If he is willing to debate properly, then you can discuss the matter with him."
"If he is desperate and attempts to use violence when he cannot refute your argument, don't be afraid, for I, an old monster, am here."
"There is no need for you to trouble that old man of yours. Even with me here, I guarantee that you won't be bullied by that old wolf."
Elder Tao said resolutely and determinedly, making Su Lie overjoyed.
"If there were senior cultivators to help, then we juniors would not fear the God of Hanyu mountain. It's just that..."
After hesitating for a moment, Su Lie asked again, "Do you know the origins and details of the Hanyu mountain Wolf God, senior? If you do, we can prepare in advance..."
Elder Tao shook her head and said, "As for the origins and details of this old wolf, I don't know. But with the vastness of the world, it's not surprising that some ancient powers who survived the Earthly Catastrophe still exist."
"I have encountered some of these ancient powers myself. Although they do have extraordinary abilities, it doesn't mean that they are all powerful."
"The only concern is that this old wolf seems to have some relationship with the Candle Dragon. The Wuqi Country that came to help him is a vassal of the Candle Dragon and has always been running errands for him. But now they are helping this old wolf... Ha..."
Elder Tao laughed and, seeing the fear in Su Lie's eyes when he heard the name of the Candle Dragon, said, "What are you afraid of? Just one Candle Dragon and you're scared?"
Elder Tao shook her head and said, "The Candle Dragon has also fought me before. We fought to a draw and it was not as terrible as the rumors say."
"You have all demonized the Candle Dragon and everyone is frightened at its mention. It is truly ridiculous."
"Don't even mention that old wolf is not the Candle Dragon. Even if he truly were, I would still be able to protect you!" confidently promised Elder Tao.
The information he revealed immediately pleased Su Lie.
The elderly senior before his eyes was his eldest son's master, but he had only seen him a few times. Although Su Lin always said that his master was a peak cultivator with an invincible appearance, Su Lie had never had a deep understanding, and this always puzzled him.
Now he only just found out that Su Lin's master is not even afraid of Candle Dragon, an elder of the highest level of demon... With such great help, how can the Wolf God still be arrogant?
He will definitely seek revenge for his oldest son's grudge this time!
Su Lie clenched his fist, his eyes filled with excitement.
Su Lin, watch closely, I will definitely avenge you!
With your master's help now, the Wolf God can no longer act arrogantly. The two Demon Women who caused your death, I must kill them!
I will never let the culprit who killed you escape freely!
