The Elder of the Direct Line was the only person Su Wulei trusted in the Su Clan, other than his great-grandfather.
At this moment, he was sitting in front of his dilapidated thatched cottage, looking at the snowstorm. His gray eyebrows were furrowed, and he was smoking a pipe.
From afar, he saw a beautiful red figure appear outside the fence. The direct line elder instantly stood up and shook his white eyebrows in excitement.
"Su Li greets the young miss."
Su Wulei was dressed in a red outfit, and his hair was tied into a simple ponytail. He walked slowly into the courtyard through the snow.
"Greetings to Granduncle." Su Wulei had only recently learned that this old man was her granduncle, who was also her father's uncle.
"You can't, you can't. Young miss, hurry up and kiss in the house.”Su Li hurriedly made way and invited Su Wulei into the house.
After entering the room, Su Wulei shivered and went straight to the point.
"Granduncle, Wulei came today to ask for advice.”
"Eldest Miss, please speak!"
Su Li seemed to be afraid of the cold and retracted his hands into his sleeves.
His careless action caused Su Wulei's brows to furrow, but she immediately regained her composure.
"Granduncle, you also know that Wulei has a pill refining spiritual root. Today, I want to try to refine pills, but the Su family's treasure vault doesn't have a pill furnace.”Su Wulei asked.
"Pill furnace?" Su Li frowned again. He stroked his long beard and began to ponder.
Su Wulei patiently waited for his reply.
"Eldest Miss, to be honest, not to mention the Su family, it's very difficult to find a pill furnace in the entire Feng City.”Su Li said with a troubled expression.
Su Wulei's heart skipped a beat. It was just as he had thought. There had never been an alchemist in Feng City. There was no alchemy furnace at all.
Without a pill furnace, how could she, a future pill refiner, refine pills?
"Young miss, don't worry. This old master will report this matter to the Grand Elder. He will definitely have a way.”After Su Li finished speaking, he walked out of the door in a hurry. He was very concerned about her.
After a while, Su Li came back with a storage bag."Eldest miss, the Grand Elder is currently in secluded meditation to recuperate. He has sent word that he wants you to prepare thirty thousand monster cores. He said that the Jiang family has a weaponsmith who might be able to help you refine them.”
He handed the storage pouch to Su Wulei with both hands. She scanned it with her divine sense and immediately found that there were indeed 30,000 magic nuclei inside.
The Su family was one of the three great families in Feng City, but it was only a big family in this small city. In the big city, it was simply not presentable. These 30,000 monster cores were not a small amount for the entire Su family. It seemed that his great-grandfather had really put in a lot of effort for him.
Su Li had just said that his great-grandfather was still in seclusion to recuperate. Could it be that his injuries had not recovered yet?
She remembered this matter in her heart. If there was a chance in the future, she would definitely help her great-grandfather take his pulse. Perhaps she could help.
After receiving the 30,000 magic cores, Su Wulei sat in the carriage prepared by Su Li. Su Li personally drove the carriage to the Jiang family.
She didn't want to waste a day. Su Henian and his people were still eyeing her like tigers eyeing their prey. She would be safe as soon as she could strengthen her strength.
……
Not long after Su Wulei left.
In the depths of the Su family's residence, in a luxurious courtyard, Madam Zheng was sitting in the high hall, listening to Su Qingqing's report.
"Mother, that slut just left the Su Residence in a carriage. The servants said that she went to the Jiang Family. I'm afraid that it's really as Father said, to prepare the pill furnace.”Su Qingqing said fiercely.
She had long hated Su Wulei to the bone. If he ruined her engagement, she would probably never be able to be with Li Lang again. Slut, a good-for-nothing also wanted to become an alchemist. She wouldn't let her succeed!
"Have you informed your father?"
Madam Zheng's thick makeup could not hide the wrinkles on her face. She was overjoyed when she heard this.
"Father is still cultivating, so Qing Qing did not dare to disturb him.”Su Qingqing whispered.
Su Henian had always been hot-tempered. If his cultivation was interrupted, he would probably vent his anger on her. Ever since the engagement was broken, Su Henian had become more and more indifferent to his younger daughter.
"You really are a pig head. How can you not tell your father about such a big matter? Hurry up and go. Your father won't blame you.”
Mrs. Zheng pointed at Su Qingqing and scolded her. It was all her daughter's fault for being so disappointing. Now, she was inferior to First Master in everything.
When Su Qingqing heard the word 'reward', she immediately perked up and ran to Su Henian's place.
"Su Wulei, we, mother and daughter, want you dead. Old Master also wants you dead. Other than those useless direct descendants, the entire Su family wants you dead.”Madam Zheng's resentful voice echoed in the room.
After a while, Su Henian, who was cultivating in his residence, suddenly opened his eyes. A sharp light appeared in his eyes."Qing `er, are you serious?"
"Father, how would Qing `er dare to lie to you?" Su Qingqing knelt on the ground in fear.
Su Henian waved his hand, and a few magic nuclei immediately appeared in his hand."You have done well. Father will reward you. Remember, you can't mention it to anyone now. There's no need to keep the servant who reported it.”
"Thank you, Father!" Su Qingqing was overjoyed. She quickly took the magic core and felt very happy.
A simple report from him would not only get rid of Su Wulei, but also change his father's opinion. Later, he would definitely kill his servant girl personally.
After Su Qingqing left, Su Henian said to someone,""Grand Elder, what do you think of this matter?”
The Su Clan's Great Elder immediately walked out from behind the screen and cupped his fists.""Patriarch, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it's not suitable for the Su family to do it themselves. After all, that old fart…In my opinion, someone in the Li family must be willing to get this news.”
Li Zi-ang was the legitimate son of the Li family, and he had suffered such a great loss at the hands of Su Wulei. Even if Li Dongshan could not do it himself, the Li family would definitely not want Su Wulei to live for the sake of their reputation.
"Alright, Great Elder has some friendship with the Li family elder. I'll leave this matter to Great Elder!”Su Henian cupped his fists slightly.
The moment they looked at each other, they smiled at each other. They could see the viciousness in each other's eyes.
……
In Feng City, there were three major clans that ruled over dozens of smaller clans: the Su Clan, the Jiang Clan, and the Li Clan. The Su family was the oldest family in Feng City. It had existed since the day of You Feng City. No one could tell where the Su family came from.
The Li family had risen to prominence in Feng City 800 years ago. It was said that the Li family's ancestor had fought his way to the top in Feng City alone with a sword. From then on, he settled down in Feng City and later established the Li family.
The Jiang family was originally a merchant family. After earning some money, they began to support the people with spiritual roots in the family to become xiuzhe. They had a strong business support behind them. Three hundred years ago, they slowly showed their talents in Feng City.
Until twenty years ago, when the Jiang family produced an Artifact Refiner, the eldest son of the Jiang family, Jiang Ziyu. From then on, the Jiang family could compete with the other two families and become the third largest family in Feng City.
Su Wulei handed over a visiting card and asked to meet the eldest young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Ziyu.
Not long after, the Jiang family sent an elder to welcome them. After entering the Jiang residence, Su Wulei spoke of his purpose for coming.
The elder smiled and said," Eldest Young Lady Su, you might not know this. Ever since Eldest Young Master became an Armament Master, there has been an endless stream of people who have come to visit him. I'm afraid that you will have to wait until next year to refine the pill furnace.”
"I wonder if Elder can help introduce Eldest Young Master. Wulei wants to talk to him personally.”Su Wulei cupped his fists slightly and said sincerely.
