Seeing her parents' lifeless expressions, Su Cher felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Obviously, they were being controlled by some sort of magic.
This magic affected both their bodies and minds greatly.
Su Cher swung her scepter.
"Bloodline Offering!"
She muttered.
A bright red string of blood flew out from her body, connecting her and her parents together.
Su Wen Sheng and Madame Su's faces slowly regained some color, their cloudy eyes also regained clarity.
During this period of time, both their bodies and minds were completely healed.
But Su Cher's face was pale.
Beads of cold sweat seeped out of her smooth forehead.
It was painful.
It was very painful.
Using one's own life force and spirit power to take on someone else's wounds wasn't a simple thing to do.
She had to take on two people's pain at once.
But this was her parents, so Su Cher was willing to do it.
"Father, mother, who did this to you? You can tell me now" Su Cher said.
The few Lords stood at a distance and listened quietly.
At this time, they were secretly signaling their subordinates with their eyes.
A few particularly powerful people among them were preparing themselves.
While Su Wen Sheng stood there, sighing with a defeated expression on his face.
Madame Su also lowered her head in silence.
They recalled the things that had happened to them in the recent period of time.
"Hurry up and tell me, I won't let that person get away!" Su Cher urged them.
Su Wen Sheng looked at Su Cher with a complicated expression and didn't say anything.
"It's fine, Xue Er, their subordinates are all very powerful" Madame Su spoke in a rare soft tone.
Su Cher cut her off: "No! No matter who it is that touched my family, I'll make them regret it! "
She gritted her teeth: "Don't worry mother, no matter how powerful they are, in front of me, they're nothing but — — -"
Before he finished, a few dozen black shadows suddenly appeared, rushing towards Su Xue Er from all directions.
The entire outer perimeter of the Huang family was sealed off.
From now on, no one outside would know what happened inside the Huang family.
Su Cher looked around.
Dozens of cultivators drew their weapons and stabbed at her at the same time.
These people were originally standing behind the various Manor Lords and were their personal guards.
They were the strongest cultivators.
They gave it their all and were determined to kill him in one strike!
At this moment of extreme danger, Su Xue Er finally understood.
This was a plot by the other 8 Prefectures against the Su Family!
Su Cher sneered and whispered two words while holding the scepter.
"All dead."
Bang bang bang bang bang!
All the cultivators who charged over exploded, turning into balls of blood and flesh.
Blood rained down.
Screams rang out.
The crowd became frightened and confused.
Su Cher didn't care about that. She waved her scepter and pointed it at the corpses.
She murmured something.
Following Su Cher's words, dozens of illusory figures were about to rise into the air, but they were pulled back by an invisible force in mid-air.
If one looked closely, they would find that these dozens of figures were the same as the cultivators from before.
This was their soul.
Su Cher hated them so much that she didn't even spare their souls.
A grey card flew out from the scepter and enveloped all the souls.
"Let me see your memories" Su Xue Er spoke in a low voice.
— — -these people were the personal guards of the Manor Lords, usually following them closely, responsible for their safety.
So they must know a lot of secrets.
Su Cher silently swore to herself that she would definitely find the person who framed her parents!
The grey fog spread, then quickly gathered to form a crystal ball.
Su Cher held the crystal ball and observed the dozens of images inside.
"Go!" one of the Manor Lords couldn't help but shout.
"All of you, kill her!" the Manor Lords all gave their orders.
The cultivators here all attacked Su Cher.
Strangely, there seemed to be some sort of invisible barrier around Su Cher, so no matter how they attacked, they couldn't harm her or her parents at all.
While Su Cher lowered her head and focused on the crystal ball.
Voices came out from the crystal ball one after another, as well as images.
Almost instantly, the truth was revealed to Su Cher and her parents.
Inside the crystal ball, the 8 Manor Lords were secretly discussing something.
"Su Cher rejected all of the candidates we recommended" one of the Manor Lords sighed.
"She doesn't want to marry one of our direct descendants?"
"That's right"
"How could she!?"
Everyone was in an uproar.
Someone slammed the table, angrily shouting: "She's always refused to cooperate with us, on every single matter!"
Someone calmly explained: "During the ceremony of inheritance, there have been many successors of the Lord who chose the path of strength, but throughout history, among those who accepted this inheritance, Su Xue Er was the only one who returned alive"
Someone else followed up: "But she's kept it a secret, refusing to reveal it to us!"
Someone else added: "After becoming a Manor Lord, she never accepted our orders, nor did she contribute to the 9 Lords' affairs"
"This little girl is too stubborn, she's not mature enough to wield authority"
"I think that old lady Su made the wrong choice"
The Manor Lords were full of complaints.
One Manor Lord concluded: "We can't go on like this, we need to think of something"
The Manor Heads looked at each other and fell into deep thought.
A peerless female Combatant.
Not only is she powerful, but she also knows the secret to passing the inheritance trial.
Her value far surpasses anything in the mortal world!
Everyone was thinking.
A few moments later, one of the Manor Lords spoke up: "Su Wen Sheng and his wife are both obsessed with power, they'd be more than happy to be the Manor Lord themselves"
"Starting from Su Cher's parents? That's a good idea, but how do we do it? "someone else asked.
"We'll just say that Su Cher is too young, and they're Su Cher's parents, we'll support Su Wen Sheng to be the Manor Lord first, then pass the position to Su Cher later on"
"They'll definitely be happy to do it, but what are our conditions?"
"After they become Manor Lords, they must think of a way to marry Su Cher into one of our Lords"
"If that's the case, there won't be any problems"
The Manor Lords all nodded.
Out of nowhere, someone spoke up: "Why don't we take this chance to take control of the entire Su family?"
Everyone was stunned.
"You mean …" someone asked.
"Su Wen Sheng and his wife are obsessed with power, but they don't have any skills, nor are they Professionists. As long as they leave the Su family's territory, we can gather the elites of the 8 Lords and control them"
One of the Manor Lords mused: "We'll invite them here to discuss the matter of becoming the Manor Lord"
Another Manor Lord followed up: "As long as they're tempted and really want their daughter to step down, they'll definitely leave their territory and come here to discuss"
The Manor Lords were tempted.
They reached a consensus as quickly as possible.
"That's a good idea, if we control them, we'll be in charge of the Su family from now on"
"Not only that, Su Cher won't be wary of her own parents, we'll have even more ways to obtain her"
…
Clang!
The crystal ball fell to the ground.
Su Cher's hand was still holding the crystal ball.
She stood there, motionless.
Su Wen Sheng's lips twitched a bit, trying to explain: "Xue Er, we're doing this for your own good …"
"For my own good" Su Cher mechanically repeated.
Madame Su hurriedly added: "That's right, Xue Er, we really want you to have a good home"
"I really don't understand" Su Cher was trying her best to control her emotions, but couldn't help but ask: "I've never cared about anything in the family, leaving everything to you, are you still not satisfied?"
Su Wen Sheng and Madame Su exchanged glances.
Madame Su then took her daughter's hand and said: "Xue Er, since you're not going to care about anything, why don't you hand over the Starlight Cloak that symbolizes the authority of a Manor Lord? That way, we'll have a better reason to do things "
Su Cher froze.
The Starlight Cloak.
Ever since she came to Fog Isle, everything she treasured had left her one by one.
This cloak was the only treasure she had left.
It was a memento of her resistance against fate.
And now, someone wants to take this cloak away as well.
Can I not protect anything at all?
Unknowingly, a warm feeling welled up in her eyes.
This feeling was about to burst out of her eyes.
Su Cher hurriedly wiped her tears away.
I've already sworn not to cry so easily.
I've already been strong enough.
Why do I still cry?
