After Su Xi finished everything in front of her, she looked at Ouyang Chuge and said angrily, "Now that the immediate trouble is resolved, shouldn't we go find the main culprit?"
"The main culprit?" Ouyang Chuge showed a hint of confusion and looked at Su Xi. "Do you know where he is?"
Tianxing City was vast. Even if they relied on flying, it would take several days to traverse. If they were looking for someone, it would be impossible without a month.
Su Xi's statement now seemed a bit unrealistic.
Su Xi looked at Ouyang Chuge and smiled, saying, "It's not about him."
"Not about him?"
Ouyang Chuge looked at Su Xi, not understanding her meaning.
He himself wasn't small, clearly so large.
And when had Su Xi ever looked at him?
Seeing Ouyang Chuge's lack of understanding, Su Xi explained, "A monk can run away, but his temple cannot. We can't find Yuan Feng, but the Yuan Mansion is a large and established family, and they cannot escape."
"It's easier for the Yuan Mansion to find Yuan Feng than for us to find him."
Hearing Su Xi's words, Ouyang Chuge nodded in agreement.
This method was indeed the best choice for them.
As one of the four great families in Tianxing City, it was not difficult at all to inquire about the Yuan Mansion. They simply stopped someone and got the information they needed.
After gathering information, Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge soon arrived at the entrance of the Yuan Mansion.
The Yuan Mansion was exceptionally lively today, with guests filling the halls, as if celebrating something very important.
Seeing this, Su Xi turned and smiled at Ouyang Chuge beside her. "We've come at a very opportune time. We've managed to catch the celebration. Perhaps we can even have a good meal."
Ouyang Chuge pouted upon hearing Su Xi's mischievous words.
Shameless.
Seeing that Ouyang Chuge ignored her, Su Xi didn't mind and walked forward.
"Stop. Do you have an invitation?" A butler-like figure blocked Su Xi at the entrance.
Although the servant's attitude was polite, it carried an air of superiority, clearly looking down on Su Xi.
Although they were servants, they were servants of the Yuan Mansion. The butler's gatekeepers were like minor officials, and their status was naturally elevated, far from being something that "small characters" who couldn't even produce an invitation could achieve.
Su Xi heard the servant ask for an invitation and spread her hands, saying with a hint of helplessness, "What can I do? We don't have one."
"No?" The servant raised his voice, his tone filled with undisguised mockery. "Since you don't have an invitation, then move aside."
With that, the servant prepared to chase Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge away. Many guests were coming and going, and Su Xi and the others standing at the entrance would block their path.
Su Xi did not leave when faced with the servant's expulsion, but shook her head and said with a strange expression, "We won't leave."
"Hmm?" The butler's expression instantly became confused upon hearing Su Xi.
He wondered if Su Xi's mind was a little off, for her to say something so outrageous.
Regaining a little composure, the butler sternly rebuked, "Are you planning to cause trouble at the Yuan Mansion?"
He had been at the Yuan Mansion for decades, but he had never seen anyone dare to cause trouble there. Su Xi's actions were no different from seeking death.
Su Xi nodded seriously at the butler's inquiry. "You're half right. I'm not here to cause trouble today, but to kill someone."
"Hmm?" Just as the butler was filled with confusion, he saw Su Xi push him aside and walk directly into the courtyard.
"Stop!" The butler reacted and immediately called for others to intercept Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge and teach them a harsh lesson.
Today was the Yuan Mansion's most important annual event. If it were disrupted, he would also be held responsible. Therefore, to avoid punishment, he had to act first.
However, those cultivators who were usually arrogant didn't even get close to Su Xi before being sent flying, falling heavily to the ground, and immediately unable to move.
The commotion at the entrance instantly drew the attention of others.
All of them showed worry, feeling that Su Xi was courting death.
The Yuan Mansion's power was such that they could easily send someone to eternal damnation with a mere flick of their finger. Su Xi would not only be injured but would also die a painful death.
As expected, a majestic voice soon echoed from a distance, "What do you two mean by this?"
Today's matter was very important, so Yuan Jun did not want to act and ruin the atmosphere.
Moreover, with so many people present, if someone were to cause trouble, the Yuan family's reputation would surely be tarnished.
Su Xi looked at Yuan Jun, rubbed her nose, and glanced at him. "Are you in charge here?"
"Indeed." Yuan Jun, not knowing Su Xi's intentions, could only answer truthfully.
If he hadn't sensed Su Xi's spiritual power fluctuations and known that her cultivation was not low, he wouldn't have bothered talking to her nicely and would have simply acted.
Hearing Yuan Jun's admission, Su Xi pointed behind him and said, "I'm here today to find Yuan Feng. If you hand him over, we'll leave immediately."
"Heh heh."
Hearing Su Xi's request, Yuan Jun directly laughed.
Yuan Tiangang had already been crippled, and Yuan Feng was the only heir in the Yuan family. Now that Su Xi wanted Yuan Feng's life, wasn't she trying to make the Yuan family extinct?
Others who heard this news also burst into laughter.
They felt that Su Xi must be suffering from delusions to say such unrealistic things.
Su Xi ignored the surrounding laughter and continued to look at Yuan Jun. "I'll give you three breaths. If you don't hand him over, I'll kill ten people for every breath that passes."
Yuan Jun almost burst out laughing upon hearing Su Xi's words.
The Yuan family's foundation built over many years could not be threatened by Su Xi. Just because he didn't want to act today didn't mean he was afraid to.
Once he was provoked, he couldn't be blamed.
Su Xi ignored Yuan Jun's mockery. As soon as the three breaths were up, she casually killed ten people, and the entire banquet was instantly filled with the smell of blood.
Although Su Xi had only killed some insignificant minor figures at this moment, acting in the Yuan Mansion was equivalent to not giving them face.
Yuan Jun's expression instantly turned very ugly as he watched Su Xi's actions.
Was this a blatant slap in his face?
"Since you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then don't blame me." Yuan Jun said, then waved to the person behind him, signaling him to act.
In an instant, a massive aura erupted, engulfing Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge.
Immediately after, an old man appeared in front of Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge, looking at them unpleasantly.
He was the Yuan Mansion's honored Grand Elder, who usually did not appear, only emerging when the Yuan Mansion encountered major trouble to help them resolve issues.
Since he had been at the Yuan Mansion, he had only appeared once.
Now, looking at Su Xi and Ouyang Chuge, he smiled. "Fellow Daoists, what is the meaning of this?"
His cultivation had reached the late stage of Nascent Soul, only a step away from the Divine Transformation stage.
Therefore, he could see Su Xi's strength at a glance; she was only at the early stage of Nascent Soul. Facing two individuals with lower cultivation than himself, he naturally had no hesitation.
Su Xi looked at the old man and shook her head. "Among the four people we just killed, Daoist Master Wuxin had a cultivation similar to yours. Are you sure you want to fight us?"
The old man's expression faltered upon hearing Su Xi's words.
As people from Tianxing City, he naturally knew the cultivation of Daoist Master Wuxin and the others.
Furthermore, Daoist Master Wuxin and the others were considered top experts by them. Now, they had actually been killed by Su Xi?
Were they sure they weren't joking?
Were they sure they weren't trying to intimidate him?
Su Xi nodded at the old man's scrutinizing gaze. "If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."
Su Xi certainly didn't want to waste so much time with idle chatter. This was merely to use the supercomputer to scan the surrounding environment.
Since they had already acted against the Yuan Mansion, they couldn't let go of the Yuan Mansion's treasures or other valuable items.
Moreover, she had noticed something unusual about the Yuan Mansion from the moment she entered. Therefore, she had to understand it before taking further action.
The old man, of course, did not believe Su Xi's words and tried to contact Daoist Master Wuxin through his own means.
However, he despaired to find that Daoist Master Wuxin had indeed lost contact.
The situation before him made him realize that Su Xi was not deceiving him, but that Su Xi had truly killed Daoist Master Wuxin.
Daoist Master Wuxin's cultivation was even greater than theirs, so if Su Xi could kill all four of them, including Daoist Master Wuxin, then killing him would naturally not be difficult.
Having lived to his age and reached his cultivation level, he naturally did not want to die so soon.
He still desired righteous longevity and to live as long as heaven.
Thus, after his expression changed several times, he said, "Fellow Daoist, what do you want?"
He had already decided that as long as Su Xi's request was not excessive, he would accept it.
Hearing that the old man had softened, Su Xi reiterated her request.
The old man heard that Su Xi's request was simple. After his expression changed for a while, he directly looked at Yuan Jun and said, "Hurry and bring out your son. Since you've made a mistake, you must pay the price."
Yuan Jun did not expect his honored Grand Elder to suddenly change his mind, and his expression was quite vivid.
"Grand Elder, we..." Yuan Jun wanted to explain, but was directly and rudely interrupted by the old man.
"Listen to me. If you refuse now, no one will be able to save you in the end." The old man used his aura as he spoke.
Under the old man's aura, Yuan Jun felt his bones constantly trembling.
Although very unwilling, he could only nod and agree.
His cultivation was the lowest, and at this moment, he had no chance of resisting.
