After Su Chen went out, he started to leisurely stroll around the villa. Before long, Ye Mei and Xia Qiuru, along with others who worked, came back. Even Xiao Xun, who was at school, returned with Tang Yun.

By this time, dinner was almost ready, so everyone went to the dining room to eat together.

After dinner, the ladies busied themselves with various activities, while Su Chen and Ye Mei took Xiao Xun out shopping.

Originally, Ye Mei had planned to take Xiao Xun, but since Su Chen was free, he decided to join them.

Now that Xiao Xun was in school, her time was not as abundant as before, but the ladies from the villa still tried to take her out once or twice a week.

It didn't really matter who took her out.

To be honest, Su Chen always felt a sense of pity for this little girl, wishing that she could always be happy like this!

The Xiao Xun of now was very different from the little girl Su Chen first met; she was much more lively!

However, that rare innocence and simplicity remained, untouched by any influence!

Driving the car, Su Chen took Ye Mei and Xiao Xun directly to the bustling city center of Yandu, reaching the busiest street in about twenty to thirty minutes.

On this street, there were several large shopping malls. The two of them each held one of Xiao Xun's hands and walked into one of them!

The usual thing that the villa's ladies did when shopping with Xiao Xun was buying clothes, and Ye Mei was no exception this time.

Perhaps it's a woman's nature, although the little girl's wardrobe at home was already nearly full of new clothes!

After an hour or so, Ye Mei selected two or three outfits for Xiao Xun, but didn't buy much for herself.

Sometimes, women go shopping just for the outing, buying things isn't the main goal!

After shopping, they took Xiao Xun to have some snacks.

Once done, Su Chen and Ye Mei saw that it was getting late, and since the little girl had school the next day, they decided to head back.

On the way back, Su Chen chatted casually with Ye Mei and Xiao Xun while driving.

However, as they were about to leave the city district on a quiet street, an elderly man suddenly appeared on the side of the street, walking toward Su Chen!

He wore a loose dark blue robe, which, under the dim street lamps, appeared almost black!

There seemed nothing unusual about him, looking like many other elderly people, except perhaps for his attire!

But upon seeing him, Su Chen's eyes immediately narrowed, a sharp gleam shooting forth!

He then stepped on the brakes, bringing the car to a stop.

"Ye Mei, I just remembered something I need to do. You take Xiao Xun back first," Su Chen said with a smile to Ye Mei in the passenger seat.

"It's so late already, what could it be?"

Ye Mei, surprised by Su Chen suddenly mentioning he had something to do, asked curiously.

"Just a small matter, might take some time, and the little girl has school tomorrow. You take her back first," Su Chen replied with a smile, "I'll grab a taxi later."

"Alright then," Ye Mei nodded without suspecting anything.

Soon after, both Su Chen and Ye Mei got out of the car. Ye Mei took the driver's seat, said something to Su Chen, and then drove toward the villa.

By now, the elder had also approached and stopped, showing no reaction as he watched Su Chen's car leave.

Before long, Ye Mei turned the car and disappeared from Su Chen's view.

At this moment, the elder stood not far from Su Chen, his murky eyes filled with a burning hatred!

As if he wished to devour Su Chen alive!

Su Chen also looked at the elder, the corner of his mouth curving into a smile, his face showing a playful expression!

"Boy, sending them away, do you not find it redundant?"

The elder coldly spoke, seeing the young man facing him so calmly, "After you die, do you think those connected to you can still live?"

"The premise is that I must die first!" Su Chen shrugged, smiling lightly.

"Do you really think you can survive today?"

The elder glanced at Su Chen sinisterly, "Had you known who I am, you wouldn't have such unrealistic fantasies!"

"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the Hua Family's elder!"

Su Chen casually replied.

The elder was slightly taken aback to hear Su Chen's words, surprised this young man knew him!

He then stared intently at Su Chen, "Since you know who I am, prepare to meet your end!"

Indeed, he was the elder of the Hua Family, and undoubtedly, their strongest presence!

Actually, the reason Su Chen knew it was him was because some rumors had pointed to him after the Hua Family's incident!

Within the top-tier forces of the Ancient Martial World, the rumors were rampant!

Qin Nishang and Dugu Mingyue had heard some as well, and both were quite startled, immediately contacting him to confirm the matter!

Su Chen, having nothing to hide from them, immediately admitted it!

Upon hearing Su Chen's confirmation, Qin Nishang and the usually composed Dugu Mingyue were shocked, taking a while to recover!

Once they calmed down, both women mentioned one person without coordinating: the Hua Family's elder!

They said his cultivation was unfathomable, and he would surely cause trouble, urging him to be extremely cautious!

Even though Hua Family's head Hua Zhenyuan and some top experts were dead, severely weakening their strength, with the elder around, no one dared provoke them!

Though Su Chen remained indifferent after hearing them, they described the elder's basic information to him!

At that time, Su Chen understood that the words Hua Zhenyuan spoke before his death likely referred to this Hua Family elder!

So when Su Chen saw this person at the moment, he immediately guessed his background!

To be honest, Su Chen had been waiting for him, just didn't expect it would take him this long to arrive, truly unexpected!

In truth, it wasn't that Su Chen guessed incorrectly, but that the Hua Family elder was so shocked by the deaths of the Hua Zhenyuan father and son and several key figures of the Hua Family, he fell ill from the blow!

It's not surprising; the Hua Family, perpetually dominant, was never defeated! When had they ever been wiped out by others?

Especially with those being the Hua Family's most important people, such a blow was unimaginable for him!

It took more than ten days for him to recover slightly!

He hadn't been involved in family matters for a long time, focusing solely on cultivation, but after inquiring a bit, he understood what had happened, and who the culprit was!
