Since Ive already killed someone, Im not afraid to kill anymore Su Xue Er muttered to herself.

Su Wen couldnt help but took a few steps back.

Su Xue Er turned her head to look at Su Wen.

Brother, perhaps youve forgotten, Im a 4th stage Wind Elementalist

What could possibly make you think that I would do as you like?

Is it because were related by blood that you think I wont hurt you?

But if blood relations are really that effective, then why do all of you treat me like this?

The entire banquet went silent.

Everyone stared at Su Xue Er and the corpse on the ground.

You -Youre a lady of Su family, yet you killed someone in front of everybody

Su Wens expression had already changed several times, this completely isnt the sister that he remembers, the sister thats kind-hearted and easy to manipulate.

He took a few more steps back, shaking.

As the Lady of Su family, whats really unbecoming is not acting despite being threatened

Su Xue Er continued to speak, seemingly fallen into a strange state of mind.

Why would you have this illusion that Im easy to push around?

Because my academic records have always been good? Or because I like to support the poor? Or because normally I dont ever do anything except to cultivate myself? she muttered.

Then she headed towards Su Wen.

Su Wens teeth were clanking against themselves in fear, when he took a few more steps backward, he fell, and resorted to crawling away.

What are you doing!

A dignified male voice was heard.

When they turned back to look, the one they saw was Su familys pillar, Su Xue Ers father, Su Wen Sheng.

Xue Er, whats going on here? Why did you kill someone in front of everybody! he coldly shouted.

Su Xue Er looked at her father and casually answered: Because a mere servant dared to threaten me and have me do as he ordered

Su Xue Ers father stood blankly, unable to say anything back.

He only just came here so he didnt know the situation was like this.

He originally wanted to use the scolding to gloss over his daughters wrongdoings, but seems like it wasnt as simple as he thought.

Su Wen Sheng looked at the body on the ground.

this is the second wifes subordinate.

How dare she reach for my daughter, despicable!

Feeling intense anger welling up, he gestured to his subordinate.

Very quickly, people came up to clean the body and the blood, returning the banquet hall to normal, like nothing happened.

All the aristocrats also nodded to smooth it over.

Well, well, its just a small matter after all, Xue Er did the right thing

Thats right, such a daring servant, our family wouldve clubbed him to death long ago

Lady Xue Er certainly does carry the air of true nobility

Su Wen Sheng nodded to Su Xue Er and gestured for her to come with him.

They left the banquet hall, walked past numerous rooms and finally arrived at Su Wen Shengs reading room.

The door was tightly closed behind them.

Su Wen Sheng angrily spoke: No matter what you want to do, its fine if its a family matter, but to do that in front of everyone, do you still want to marry or not?

Su Xue Er looked down and asked: So father also wants me to marry out? Im a very powerful Professionist you know; father doesnt mind giving me to other people?

Su Wen Sheng was surprised, then seemed to understand something.

His expression loosened, his tone also became a bit warmer: Im not saying that you have to marry out, but this is what your mother wants. She feels like a girl like you getting her happy ending sooner is better

As parents, of course we hope that youll have a good future ahead of you

Hearing that, Su Xue Er looked up at her father.

She couldnt help but ask: Gu Qing Shan is a Confederate state scientist, even princess Anna likes him, why do you still insist on not accepting such a person?

Foolish daughter, his technology belongs to the Confederate, under controlled usage by Impartial Goddess, even we cant obtain it easily

Su Wen Shengs eyes then became crafty: But the Mech he created is in your hand, the technology can easily be dismantled and reversed engineered

Which means, he himself isnt important

Su Xue Er hurriedly said: But he has room to improve, hell achieve even more in the future, hell gain even greater recognition

Just who can be sure about the future? Hes just a normal person, he has no authority!

Is authority really so important? Su Xue Er bit her lip.

Su Wen Sheng looked into his daughters beautiful face then suddenly sighed.

Daughter of mine, without authority, your future is very bleak

Father, I dont feel like gaining authority and getting together with him will be mutually exclusive

Su Wen Sheng looked her his daughter, then remembered how shes a 4th stage Elementalist and couldnt help but agree with that.

He dejectedly leaned on his chair and casually spoke: If you werent our Su familys mainline daughter, I would definitely not stop you and allow you to marry Gu Qing Shan

Hearing such a strange thing, Su Xue Er couldnt help but opened her eyes wide and asked: If I werent the mainline daughter? I dont understand what you mean

Su Wen Sheng stayed silent for a bit, then suddenly laughed: That kid is also quite resilient to be able to live that long

Su Xue Ers face changed and hurriedly asked: What do you mean by that? Who wants to kill him?

Its not just someone, dear daughter Su Wen Sheng sighed, at the moment that he confessed to you, not just us, but any mainline of the 9 Lords will consider that to be a provocation and be hostile towards him

Why!? Su Xue Er shouted.

Because your husband, destined from birth, must be someone from the mainline of the 9 Lords Su Wen Sheng answered.

Destined from birth?

Su Xue Er slowly digested this information, but still couldnt understand and stared at her father.

Su Wen Sheng shook his head, sighing.

Ive already told her so much, I might as well just tell her everything.

Daughter of mine, you also know about this, every mainline eldest daughter of the 9 Lords, according to our laws, can only marry another mainline 9 Lords

Su Xue Er was stunned, then as she recalled the other eldest daughters of the 9 Lords in history, that truly is the case.

No no! her face paled, why would there be such a law?

Su Wen Sheng paced back and forth in his room and angrily spoke: Originally, this is only supposed to be told to you after you marry, but Ill tell you this ahead of time so that you wont elope with that brat

The mainlines of the 9 Lords can only marry each other as they reach maturity, using this to ensure that the 9 Lords common secret doesnt gets leaked Su Wen Sheng answered.

What secret?

Even I dont know what that secret is, only the main line members are allowed to know about it on the day that they inherit the position of family head

As far as I know, this secret has been protected for over 700 years

The secret has never been leaked? And you also dont know about it? Su Xue Er asked further.

30 years ago, the Confederates most famous scientist Liao Xing was able to enter that secrets location through warp technology

You mean, he succeeded?

No, he died the very next day Su Wen Sheng shook his head, his body was chopped into pieces, then burned, thrown away somewhere no one noticed
