Although the young disciples of the Sacred Mountain were only in their thirties, the aura that was faintly discernible from their bodies made the faces of the elders of the Su Clan present turn ugly. The young disciples of the Sacred Mountain seemed to be doing it on purpose, secretly releasing their aura to suppress the hall.
The beautiful middle-aged woman looked to be in her forties. Her face was calm and her temperament was graceful. She was embroidered with a badge on her body. Those who were familiar with her would know that it represented her status as a deacon of the Sacred Mountain.
Although a deacon wasn't a very high position in the Sacred Mountain, it was a different position in the outside world.
Su Jingting was seated beside her. At this moment, in front of the beautiful middle-aged woman, his expression did not reveal anything, but his heart was quite uneasy.
"Your son, Su Wei, did well in the Sacred Mountain. Congratulations."
After some pleasantries, the beautiful middle-aged woman said to Su Jingting. Her words were very serious. Su Wei had indeed performed well in the Sacred Mountain, which was why she was still being polite.
"Thank you for your care, deacon. Thank you for the Sacred Mountain's nurturing." Hearing this, Su Jingting was secretly delighted. Since Su Wei could perform well in the Sacred Mountain, he would have a good future in the future.
The elders of the Su Clan were also overjoyed. Su Wei was a disciple of the Su Clan. If he could perform well in the Sacred Mountain, the Su Clan would also be protected in the future.
"Hehe, Patriarch Su, there is another matter that I want to discuss with the Su Clan today. The higher-ups of the Sacred Mountain have personally spoken about this matter."
At the mention of the Sacred Mountain's higher-ups, the beautiful middle-aged woman's expression became respectful. Her expression was solemn as she sized Su Jingting up, as if she wanted to detect Su Jingting's reaction.
Su Jingting's expression changed slightly and turned solemn. How could he not understand the meaning behind the beautiful woman's words? She deliberately mentioned the Sacred Mountain's higher-ups. This was clearly reminding him that a mere substitute patriarch of the Su Clan was nothing in front of the Sacred Mountain. Whatever the Sacred Mountain said, it was what it was.
Su Jingting's eyes flickered, but his expression remained unchanged. He already had a guess in his heart. Other than Su Wei, who was currently in the Holy Mountain, the Su Clan could only be related to Su Yi.
It was said that Liu Ruoxi had already returned to the Barbarian City, and the people from the Holy Mountain had also come to the Su Residence. Su Jingting already had an idea in his heart that the purpose of the people from the Holy Mountain was probably related to Su Yi and Liu Ruoxi.

"Please speak, Deacon. If the Sacred Mountain has any instructions, the Su Clan will do our best," Su Jingting said.
"Patriarch Su's words are too serious. I came to the Su Family this time to express my apologies. The Su Family's disciple, Su Yi, met with misfortune on the way to the Holy Mountain. Our Holy Mountain is also responsible." The beautiful middle-aged woman said faintly.
"Fortune and misfortune are unpredictable. No one would have expected this to happen. If this is really just an accident, then it's my nephew's good fortune that he didn't manage to ascend the Sacred Mountain. If there's a hidden story behind this matter, Jingting believes that one day the justice of heaven will be able to catch up." Su Jingting said indifferently.
Hearing Su Jingting's words, the gazes of everyone present changed.
The beautiful middle-aged woman's expression also changed a lot. She looked at Su Jingting and said, "Patriarch Su's words seem to imply that Su Yi's death has something to do with our Holy Mountain?"
"I wouldn't dare. This is definitely not what I meant. Deacon, please don't misunderstand this Su," Su Jingting said.
"Yes, Deacon, this is definitely not what the Patriarch meant." A few of the Su Clan's relatives also spoke up, trying to smooth things over.
"This time, I came to the Su Residence on behalf of the Holy Mountain to express my condolences on Su Yi's death."
The beautiful middle-aged woman said, as if she didn't take Su Jingting's words to heart. The thoughts of the insignificant Su Clan were not important to the Holy Mountain.
As soon as she finished speaking, the beautiful middle-aged woman gave a look. A young man beside her stepped forward with an indifferent expression. He took out a jade box and handed it to Su Jingting.
Su Jingting was surprised. He took the jade box and carefully opened it. A strong medicinal fragrance suddenly rushed out, spreading out and dazzling.
A thumb-sized elixir that was emitting golden light appeared. Accompanied by a wave of energy, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder as if it was alive.
"This is …"
Looking at the jade box in Su Jingting's hand, the expressions of the Su Clan's relatives changed drastically. Although they didn't know the origin of this elixir, they couldn't be sure that it was definitely a treasure.
Such an elixir made Su Jingting's expression change drastically. This was definitely not an ordinary item. It was definitely a treasure.
"This is the Golden Lightning Heavenly Yuan Elixir. It's almost at the Initial Stage Huang Grade. Consider it as an apology to the Su Clan." The beautiful middle-aged woman looked at the expression on Su Jingting's face and revealed a faint smile in her eyes. This kind of treasure was something that the small Su Clan would not be able to possess even if they were to sell off all their assets. This time around, the higher-ups were actually treating the Su Clan in such a manner. This Golden Lightning Heavenly Yuan Pill possessed an absolute allure even to her.
"It's a treasure."
Hearing the beautiful middle-aged woman's words, the Su Clan's relatives were excited. They wouldn't even have the chance to see such a treasure in their lifetime, let alone own it.
"The Su Clan is flattered by the Sacred Mountain's grace. We dare not accept it. Deacon, please tell us what the Su Clan can do for the Sacred Mountain." Su Jingting said without showing any expression. The Sacred Mountain was so generous, how could they give it to the Su Clan for nothing?
A Golden Lightning Heavenly Yuan Elixir that was almost at the Initial Stage Huang Grade was such a treasure. The entire Su Clan couldn't afford it even if they sold all their assets. Normally, this would be enough to make Su Jingting's heart tremble. But recently, the experts from Shenjian Gate came and gave them treasures such as the Golden Lightning Heavenly Yuan Elixir. Just the Golden Lightning Heavenly Yuan Elixir alone was already a true Initial Stage Huang Grade Elixir.
"It's like this. Regarding the marriage between Su Yi and our Sacred Mountain's disciple, Liu Ruoxi, although it's just a joke, Su Yi is dead now. This marriage contract actually doesn't exist anymore. So from now on, the marriage contract between the Su Clan and Liu Clan will come to an end." The beautiful middle-aged woman said to Su Jingting.
"This …"
"Su Yi is dead. This marriage contract no longer exists."
Hearing this, the Su Clan's relatives whispered inwardly. The Sacred Mountain had already sent such a generous gift to the Su Clan. Since Su Yi was dead, the marriage contract naturally didn't exist anymore.
Su Jingting's face sank. He didn't say anything. He gently closed the jade box in his hand and put it aside.
"What did the Su Clan's Patriarch say?"
Seeing this, the beautiful middle-aged woman looked indifferent and asked faintly.
