After half an incense stick of time, the three of them arrived at the Su Residence's main gate.
The Su Residence had a large courtyard with the words 'Su Residence' written on the door. It looked simple and elegant, revealing the vicissitudes of life.
However, at this moment, the door of the Su residence was tightly shut. There was no one guarding outside.
The entire mansion gave off a cold and desolate feeling, which was very different from its majestic appearance.
"The Su Residence is in dire straits now. I've made a fool of myself in front of Master.”
Su Muhan looked at the Su Residence and sighed softly. His expression was a little gloomy.
"There's nothing to laugh at. Rise and fall are common. It's already not bad for your family to last for a thousand years.”
Xiao Xuan waved his hand, unconcerned.
In his opinion, no matter how strong a force was, if it did not have a successor, it would only be able to struggle on at death's door and would be difficult to continue.
According to Su Muhan, there had been no successor to the Su family since the fall of the first family head. It was already extremely rare for them to be able to stand firm for a thousand years.
"Thank you for your comfort, Master. Please come in!”
Hearing this, Su Muhan felt a little more comfortable. He quickly walked forward and pushed open the huge manor door. Then, he turned sideways and made an inviting gesture, leading Xiao Xuan in.
Xiao Xuan nodded slightly, stepped into the Su Residence, and walked into the inner courtyard.
Along the way, Su Muhan followed Xiao Xuan and reported the situation of the Su family to his master in a low voice.
It turned out that the Su Residence did not even have a gatehouse. It was Su Muhan who had pawned the Su Family's property in the city in order to raise spirit stones to buy a first-grade Molten Core Fire Lotus. She had also dismissed all the servants in the residence, leaving only her, her father, and a personal servant girl.
After Su Muhan led Xiao Xuan and Zhi Nu into the inner courtyard, he saw that there were already more than ten people waiting in the hall.
"Second Uncle, Third Aunt, why are you here?”
Su Muhan was stunned when he saw the people sitting at the main seat drinking tea and chatting. He asked in surprise.
"Humph! If he still doesn't come, I'm afraid our Su family's old residence won't be surnamed Su for long!”
This middle-aged man was dressed in a brocade robe. His features were somewhat similar to Su Muhan, but he revealed a trace of hostility. His eyes were dark as he stared at Su Muhan, causing one to feel fear.
It was Su Muhan's second uncle, Su Hongyuan.
"Second Uncle, now is not the time to talk about this. I have to save my father first!”
Su Muhan's expression changed as he frowned.
"Ha! You bastard, you still dare to mention your father?
If Big Brother knew that you sold your family property for pleasure, he would be angered to death by you even if he woke up!”
A woman next to Su Hongyuan scolded him angrily.
The woman was dressed elegantly, but it could not hide the harsh aura on her body.
It was Su Muhan's third aunt, Su Runyue.
"Third Aunt, you've misunderstood."
Su Muhan quickly defended himself,"I didn't sell my assets for pleasure. I did it to buy a first-grade Molten Core Fire Lotus to save my father's life!”
"You still dare to quibble? Although the Su family's property is in your hands, my second and third families also have a share. You didn't discuss it with us before you pledged it. You're simply selfish and unworthy of being a son of the Su family!”
Su Hongyuan slammed the table and pointed at Su Muhan.
"If the Su family's business really falls into your hands, you might end up in a situation where you sell your ancestors for glory one day!”
"Yes, yes! Su Muhan, how could you do this?
In order to protect the Su family, your father had put in so much effort. In the end, he ended up in such a state, but you're trying to sabotage him behind his back. It's disappointing!”
"The Smiths raised you for twenty years. Is this how you repay the Smiths?”
"You said she was a pill dao genius, the number one beauty of Falling Cloud City?
However, she was so vicious. Those spirit stones that she had sold off were probably used to feed her lover, right?”
In the hall, more than ten men and women began to criticize Su Muhan.
They were all members of the Su family's branch family. They usually had complaints about the Direct Line, but now that they were kicking Su Muhan when he was down, they didn't show any respect for her. They all arrogantly pointed at her and cursed.
Su Muhan was so angry that her face turned ashen. Her body trembled, and she bit her red lips with her pearly white teeth. Her eyes were spitting fire.
"You cold-blooded people, how dare you come and accuse me?”
"When my father went berserk, did any of you visit him?
When I found out about the fire lotus and wanted to ask you for spirit stones, how many times did I get rejected?”
"Now that you heard that I had pawned a house, you came to the Su residence to denounce me. You're really shameless to the extreme. You're simply worse than an animal!”
The more Su Muhan spoke, the more agitated he became. His chest was heaving up and down, and his eyes were red with anger.
During the period when her father was seriously injured and unconscious, Second Uncle and Third Aunt had never visited him. They did not even say a word of concern. Even biological siblings were like this, let alone others. This made her extremely disappointed.
She had long seen through the coldness of human emotions. Second Uncle was after the position of the Su family's head, while Third Aunt and the others were after the family property.
They were all cold-blooded animals!
After being exposed by Su Muhan, the faces of these relatives became somewhat unsightly.
Su Hongyuan was rather thick-skinned. He snorted coldly."Don't beat around the bush…You acknowledged an outsider as your master at the auction today, so we've decided to remove you from your position as the acting family head! From today onwards, I'm the head of the Su family, and you?
You're no longer a member of the Smiths!"
Su Hongyuan said in a matter-of-fact tone,"Since you're no longer a member of the Su family, please hand over all the 1.1 million medium-grade spirit stones you've obtained from selling your family's assets. Otherwise, don't blame me for not remembering our old friendship!”
"Don't even think about using the spirit stones. I've already used them to buy the fire lotus!”
Su Muhan took a deep breath. After he calmed down, he refused.
"You said you bought the fire lotus with spirit stones?"
Strangely, Su Hongyuan didn't get angry. Instead, he laughed and looked at Su Muhan mockingly.
"Su Muhan, everything you did at the auction today was under my control. Don't think that I don't know that the master you sold your body to have returned the spirit stones to you. I advise you to obediently hand over all the spirit stones and avoid physical pain!”
"What?"
Su Muhan's face paled at Su Hongyuan's words.
It hadn't even been two hours since she took Xiao Xuan as her master.
Even if it was spread, it was impossible for it to spread to everyone in such a short period of time.
Moreover, seeing that the Su family had been waiting for a long time and had a confident appearance, it was obvious that they had received the news long ago.
"How did you know?"
"Hahaha, in order to prevent you from destroying the Su family, I've already planted spies around you. Your every move is under my control. How could I not know?”
As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful maid walked in quickly and bowed to Su Hongyuan."I personally witnessed Su Muhan's apprenticeship. What the patriarch said is true!”
"Xiao Huan?"
Su Muhan turned to look at the servant girl in disbelief.
This servant girl was Su Muhan's personal servant girl. She had been by her side since she was young and had been with her for more than ten years. She had a very good relationship with her and it would not be wrong to say that they were like sisters.
Even if she dismissed the servants of the Su family, Su Muhan was not willing to let the maidservants leave. It was enough to show her trust and importance towards the maidservants.
She hadn't expected that this servant girl was actually Su Hongyuan's spy.
"I treated you like a sister. Why did you betray me?”
Su Muhan's face was filled with pain and he found it hard to accept.
