Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 904 905: Only Your Enemies Know You Best

The Su Family Patriarch looked at Azure Dragon and the others and asked calmly, "May I ask if my Su Family has committed some offense against you? Why do you suddenly make things difficult for us?"
Qin Yi's eyes turned strange; this question was entirely rhetorical.
Azure Dragon spoke up, "Do you really not know?"
"I would not lie."
Azure Dragon said indifferently, "Alright, I believe you! Let's assume you've been in seclusion too long and don't know what's happened.
However, since you've asked, I shall tell you. The Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the Third Elder of the Su Family collaborated with jesters from various nations, using your Su Family's clan treasure, the Soul Suppressing Bell and Poisonous Elixir, which nearly killed us."
The Su Family Patriarch's expression showed a fluctuation, looking at Su Wuyu surprised.
Facing the Su Family Patriarch's inquiring gaze, Su Wuyu slightly lowered his head, remaining silent.
Su Wuyu's expression said it all.
The Su Family Patriarch sighed slightly, his voice tinged with anger, "Foolish creature."
These simple five words transformed into a terrifying force, directly blasting Su Wuyu.
"Boom!"
Su Wuyu was blasted to the ground, half of his body embedded into the floor, vomiting blood nonstop.
Qin Yi's eyes narrowed slightly; was this showing off his cultivation or punishing Su Wuyu?
"Patriarch, please calm your anger."
Blood foamed from Su Wuyu's mouth as he spoke in agony.
The Su Family Patriarch snorted coldly, "After doing such a disgraceful thing, you still have the nerve to beg for mercy? How can I calm my anger?
It seems that during my century of seclusion, you have already forgotten the ancestral teaching of the flourishing Su Family remaining hidden and the chaotic Su Family protecting the world."
Qin Yi glanced at the Su Family members, his gaze flickering, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
The Su Family members, upon hearing the Patriarch's words, had a flash of bewilderment in their eyes.
This indicated that the Su Family had no such ancestral teaching; this statement was fabricated by the Patriarch.
The Su Family Patriarch sighed, full of disappointment, then looked at Azure Dragon and the others, "It is my Su Family's fault, what happened was our mistake; we are ready for whatever punishment you deem fit."
The four of Azure Dragon were stunned. They had expected a fierce battle, not that the Patriarch would be so reasonable about right and wrong?
Qin Yi, however, burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" asked the Su Family Patriarch lightly.
Qin Yi's eyes were filled with sarcasm, teasingly, "Old man, stop acting; your acting skills are terrible, watching you makes me cringe."
The Su Family Patriarch said indifferently, "You say I am acting?"
"In terms of acting, you're not even a fraction of me; you should just give it a rest. Your Su Family has no teaching about staying hidden in flourishing times and emerging in chaotic times to save people. You may fool others, but not me.
To be honest, don't perform a pitiful act here, thinking that having Su Wuyu vomit some blood would placate us. Don't waste your time."
The Su Family Patriarch looked at Qin Yi indifferently, then suddenly reached out and struck; the void instantly twisted, and terrifying power rolled over Su Wuyu.
"Boom!"
Centered on Su Wuyu, the ground within a hundred meters exploded, cracking like a turtle shell.
And Su Wuyu was left with broken bones and tendons, covered in blood, constantly foaming from the mouth, utterly miserable.
Except for Qin Yi, everyone was stunned; this blow was no pretense—most of Su Wuyu's bones were shattered.
Had the Su Family truly defied their ancestral teaching?
The Su Family Patriarch looked at Qin Yi indifferently and said, "Young man, the Su Family's ancestral teachings have been passed down for generations; it doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Su Wuyu did wrong, shaming the four Guardian Gods and betraying the people of Longxia. The Su Family tolerates no such behavior."
The four of Azure Dragon instinctively looked at Qin Yi, for they could not discern whether what the Su Family Patriarch said was true or false.
Yet Qin Yi's mouth slightly curved up, his gaze filled with mockery. He did not believe the Patriarch, as his acting was clumsy, with too many flaws.
Having always been the one acting to deceive others, Qin Yi found the Patriarch lacking in finesse.
The Su Family Patriarch looked at Qin Yi indifferently and said, "Young man, if I were truly acting, there would be no need. Although the four Guardian Gods have high cultivation, I do not fear them. If a real fight broke out, it's uncertain who would be stronger or weaker.
The reason I punish Su Wuyu is that he erred, deserving his punishment."
"Is that so?" The sarcasm in Qin Yi's eyes grew stronger, teasingly, "Then let me ask you this: earlier, you said you recognized the aura of Old Dragon and the others, and just now, you mentioned knowing their cultivation; here's the question.
Please answer: if you've been in seclusion for a hundred years, and Old Dragon's fame rose fifty years ago, how do you know them so well without ever leaving?"
The Su Family Patriarch's eyes narrowed harshly, his gaze on Qin Yi becoming sharp.
Azure Dragon and his companions were momentarily stunned, then realized the Patriarch's claimed ignorance was feigned; he knew everything. Otherwise, how could someone who hadn't surfaced in a century be so familiar with them?
"Old scoundrel, you almost fooled us," White Tiger said angrily.
Qin Yi sneered, "You old dog, lying without batting an eye. Your deceit is almost on par with mine."
"So it was you," Su Zhantian suddenly pointed at Qin Yi and screamed.
He had been watching Qin Yi closely, standing alongside the four Guardian Gods, speaking almost as if they were old friends—besides Qin Yi, who else could it be? Moreover, Qin Yi forgot to disguise his voice earlier, and it's a voice Su Zhantian would never forget in his lifetime.
As the saying goes, those who know you best are not your friends but your enemies.
Having fallen into Qin Yi's hands and suffering greatly, Su Zhantian dreamed of eliminating Qin Yi as soon as possible.
Therefore, he recognized Qin Yi and was very certain.
The Su Family Patriarch was about to ask who Qin Yi was when he heard Su Zhantian, looked at him, and asked, "You know him?"
"I would recognize him even if he turned to ashes," Su Zhantian said with bitterness, "Patriarch, he is Qin Yi, a thorough demon. Treacherous, cunning, sinister, and despicable..."
Su Zhantian rattled off a list of Qin Yi's countless crimes.
However, his words made the Su Family Patriarch's gaze grow serious. Because what Su Zhantian recounted were Qin Yi's exploits, such as destroying the Blood Cloud Tower, severing the legacies of various nations, ruthlessly eliminating Qi Refiners in Luoshen Mountain, and so on.
The Su Family Patriarch could not help but be shocked; Qin Yi, younger than Su Zhantian but with such high cultivation, decisive actions, and deep cunning, seemed like a blade hanging over the Su Family's head.
If someone like this were allowed to grow unchecked, who could oppose him in the future?
With his identity exposed, Qin Yi no longer hid, tearing off the black cloth from his face, mischievously staring at Su Zhantian, teasing, "I didn't expect to hold such an important place in Su's heart, nor expected you to remember my achievements so clearly.
If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have known I was so outstanding."
"Qin Yi, you sinister and malicious villain, stop boasting here. With the Patriarch around, you're doomed," Su Zhantian roared.
