My wife who comes from a wealthy family-Chapter 24 - 25 Annihilating the Xu Family

"Grandpa Su!"

"Grandpa Su, please don’t let anything happen to you!" Xu Yuanyuan and her sister were extremely worried.

"Let me take a look!" Ye Wudao crouched on the ground, examining Old Master Su’s injuries with an increasingly grave expression.

"Seven knife wounds, twelve fractures, meridians broken — Old Su has only one breath left. What happened to the Su family last night was definitely not a big fire but an attack!" Ye Wudao instantly assessed the situation.

"What, Mr. Ye, are you saying the Su family was attacked?" Xu Yuanyuan was shocked.

"Wu wu, can Grandpa Su still be saved?" Xu Mengmeng cried.

"He can!"

Ye Wudao placed his hands on Old Master Su and continuously infused him with massive amounts of True Qi, repairing his body.

Immediately after, he took out a precious pill and fed it to Old Master Su.

It wasn’t long before Old Master Su slowly opened his eyes and murmured, "Am I dead?"

"Grandpa Su, you’re awake!"

"That’s wonderful!" The Xu sisters were thrilled.

"I’m not dead?" Old Master Su was somewhat shocked and when he saw Ye Wudao, he knew he was the one who saved him.

"Wudao, you... you shouldn’t have saved me. I do not deserve to live!" Old Master Su was filled with self-reproach and regret.

"Old Su, what exactly happened last night?" Ye Wudao asked urgently.

"Cough, cough, last night, this is what happened..." Old Master Su clenched his fists and slowly revealed the truth.

"Heavens, it was the Xu family!"

"The Xu family kidnapped Sister Yueli and even forced her to marry a dead man!" The Xu sisters were utterly shocked.

"Xu family, I will annihilate your entire clan!" Ye Wudao roared in fury, his rage reaching the heavens, his body emanating a murderous aura terrifying as the hell of Asura.

Old Master Su smiled bitterly, "Wudao, although your medical skills are astounding, you may not understand the Xu family’s strength. They have a large number of Innate Martial Artists, and leading them is Xu Wu, a peak Innate Martial Artist. Furthermore, I have received dreadful news that the old monster of the Xu family isn’t dead yet— he is a warrior who surpassed Innate with his Dark Energy."

Having said that, Old Master Su took out a white token and said, "This... this is the token of a member of the Northern King’s palace, and I was once one of them. Take this token and find the people of the Northern King’s palace to avenge my Su family!"

"No need, a mere Dark Energy Martial Artist, can be crushed with a flip of the hand!" Ye Wudao stood up, his downturned eyes flashing with endless lethal intent.

"You..." Hearing this, Old Master Su’s heart surged with shock and awe, as if in Ye Wudao’s mouth, killing a Dark Energy Martial Artist was as trivial as killing a chicken.

Is this lad exaggerating, or does he truly have the strength?

"In three days, the Xu family will force Lili to undergo a ghost marriage with the Xu family’s eldest young master!" Old Master Su said painfully.

"Ha, the Xu family won’t live past today!" Ye Wudao turned and left.

"Mr. Ye (Brother Ye)!" The Xu sisters looked anxiously at Ye Wudao.

"Stay here, I will be back soon!" Ye Wudao dropped these words and then vanished from the Su estate.

...

The Xu family.

A festive atmosphere with large red lanterns hung high.

Inside the bridal chamber.

Su Yueli, coerced into wearing a red outfit with her hands bound, lay next to an icy corpse, which was none other than the deceased Xu Wenbin.

"Let, let me go, please let me leave!" Su Yueli shouted, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears.

"Miss Su, I’m sorry!"

"Three nights from now, you will be buried alongside the young master. If we let you go, the Xu family will kill us..." Two of the Xu family’s maids were in tears, deeply regretful of Su Yueli’s plight.

"Wuu, Grandfather, I’m so scared. Ye, Ye Wudao, where are you!" Su Yueli cried.

The Xu family’s banquet hall.

Crowded with people.

The famous figures, elites, and noble clans from Jiangnan City were all gathered.

"Congratulations to the Xu Family Head, best wishes to the Xu Family Head!"

"That Su family is blind to cross the Xu family; they’re seeking death!" Heads of various families toasted in celebration, their faces obsequious.

Leading them, Xu Wu had just raised his glass when a subordinate came to report, whispering; "Family Head, Director Zhao of the Jiangnan Martial Authority has arrived, and he seems to be in a bad mood."

"Hmph, that Zhao Jinya always comes with bad intentions, probably wants another bribe!" Xu Wu snorted coldly and set down his glass with a smile, "Excuse me, gentlemen, I need to step aside for a moment."

He left the banquet hall and entered a side room.

A portly middle-aged man with a big belly was sipping tea, revealing a set of large gold teeth.

Two subordinates stood behind him, both Innate Martial Artists.

"Aiyoyo, what wind has brought the esteemed Director Zhao here!" Xu Wu welcomed him with enthusiasm.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Jinya scoffed, "Xu Family Head, you did quite the deed last night, burning down the Su residence, causing twenty-six casualties. That’s a grave crime!"

"Where, where..." Xu Wu hurriedly waved his hands; "I was just visiting the Su family to reminisce, who would’ve thought their house would catch such a big fire."

"Hehe, Xu Family Head, you do know what our Jiangnan Martial Authority does, right? We specifically monitor you martial artists for illegal activities! Some deeds, if done excessively, tend to backfire!" Zhao Jinya threatened.

Xu Wu pulled out a box from his person, saying; "Director Zhao, look at what you’re saying, just a small token of appreciation!"

Zhao Jinya casually opened it to find a pill inside. His eyes lit up; "Primordial Nourishing Pill, this is the most crucial pill for an Innate Martial Artist. An Innate late-stage Martial Artist has a two in ten chance of breaking through to the Innate peak after taking this. Xu Family Head, this is quite the generous gift!"

Xu Wu clapped his hands, and two Xu family members carried two boxes in.

Zhao Jinya casually opened one, which was stuffed full of glittering gold bars. His eyes brightened.

"Director Zhao, there are fifty gold bars in each box, a hundred in total. Please accept them!" Xu Wu said.

"Aiyoyo, Brother Xu, what’s our relationship? No need to stand on ceremony." While Zhao Jinya spoke, he signaled his men to take the goods. He said with a forced smile, "In fact, I know last night’s incident at the Su family had nothing to do with you, Xu Family Head!"

"Hehe, precisely, precisely," Xu Wu smiled and said; "Brother Zhao, I’ll be counting on your support in the future."

"Alright then, I should be going. There have been too many troublemaking martial artists recently. If only all the martial artists in Jiangnan City were as considerate as you, Brother Xu!" Zhao Jinya stood up.

Just then, a Xu family subordinate came to report; "Family Head, there’s trouble outside!"
