Chapter 2463

Su Family's Old Ancestor

"Young Lady Su Su, you're alright. I was so worried!"

Suddenly, an excited voice came from nearby. Then, a middle-aged man walked over with a group of soldiers and stopped in front of Su Su. His face was filled with excitement.

"Uncle Xiu!

I thought I would never see you again! "

Su Su was pleasantly surprised. She couldn't help but hold the middle-aged man's hands. There was even a trace of mist in her eyes.

Zhuowen silently looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and frowned. The man's words just now were too abrupt. His tone was as if he already knew something would happen to Su Su.

Previously, Su Su could be said to have told him everything. She even told him about being chased. It was said that she was ambushed by the enemy. In the end, she relied on the flying divine tool given to her by the Su Family's Old Ancestor to escape.

Su Su seemed to have only told him about this. As for this middle-aged man, he shouldn't have known.

However, when the middle-aged man saw that Su Su was back, his first sentence was a little strange. This made Zhuowen suspicious.

Of course, Su Su didn't notice the problem in the middle-aged man's words. At this moment, she was reminiscing with the middle-aged man.

"Young Master, thank you for saving Young Lady Su Su. I am Su Xiu, the Su Family's Head Steward!

You are Young Lady Su Su's savior. The Su Family owes you a debt of gratitude. Please accept my bow. "

The middle-aged man came in front of Zhuowen. His face was filled with gratitude and he was about to bow to Zhuowen.

Zhuowen stood in the same place and didn't move. He didn't stop the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's originally bowed body stiffened. His eyes revealed a bone-chilling coldness. However, since Zhuowen didn't show any courtesy, he could only take the opportunity to bow deeply to Zhuowen.

"So, it's the steward of the Su family. You're too polite. Actually, I didn't help much. The two people who were chasing after us suddenly left for some reason. So, I can only say that Miss Su Su and I are lucky." Zhuo Wen smiled.

The middle-aged man stood up. His expression was not very good, but he still smiled and said, "No matter what, Young Master Zhuo, you saved our young lady's life. Now, please follow this old man back to the Su family. Also, young lady, I have already informed the Patriarch that you have returned. He said that he wants to see you."

"The Patriarch is awake!

That's great! Big Brother Zhuo, come with us! "Su Su exclaimed in surprise.

However, the middle-aged man stopped the two of them. Shortly after, the middle-aged man looked at Su Su apologetically and said, "Miss, after all, this person isn't from our Su Family. Moreover, the Ancestor only summoned you. Let him follow …"

The middle-aged man didn't finish his words, but a troubled expression appeared on his face.

Su Su, on the other hand, said carelessly, "Uncle Xiu, don't worry. Big Brother Zhuo isn't an outsider. He's friends with my sister. Hasn't the Ancestor always wanted to know my sister's whereabouts?

Now that Big Brother Zhuo has brought it over, he will definitely be happy. "

The middle-aged man's gaze froze. Shortly after, he sized up Zhuowen. However, Zhuowen could sense the coldness in the middle-aged man's gaze. He couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"So you're the young lady's friend. Young Master, it's not that this old man doesn't believe you, but the young lady has left the Su family for a long time. How can you prove that you're the young lady's friend?" The middle-aged man's tone was cold.

Su Su's beautiful eyes froze. She said with some displeasure, "Uncle Xiu, Big Brother Zhuo is my savior. It's not good for you to doubt him like this!"

"Miss, now is the time when the Su family and the Ling family are at war. Some people have unknown origins. They might be from the Ling family, so it's best for you to be vigilant," the middle-aged man continued.

Su Su's expression turned ugly. She coldly snorted and said, "Uncle Xiu, thank you for your reminder. I'll go see the Patriarch now!"

After saying that, Su Su brought Zhuowen and walked past the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man didn't stop them. Instead, he turned to look at Zhuowen's back. His eyes revealed a contemplative look.

"Big Brother Zhuo, I'm sorry!

Uncle Xiu is a cautious person, so he might have said something inappropriate just now. I hope you don't take it to heart! "Su Su apologized to Zhuowen.

"It's fine. My origins are indeed unknown. Your Uncle Xiu is right. But why does Miss Su Su believe me so much?" Zhuowen looked at Su Su in surprise.

"Because I feel that you're not a bad person, so you're definitely not a bad person!" Su Su said with a smile.

Hearing such an answer, Zhuowen was speechless.

After entering the Su family's mansion, because of Su Su, the two of them were naturally unimpeded. They went straight to the Su family's Patriarch's pavilion.

The Su family's Patriarch's pavilion was heavily guarded. There were even other restrictions outside the pavilion. It could be said that it was airtight.

Of course, to Zhuowen, these restrictions were no different than nothing.

"Second Miss, this person can't go in!" The guard stopped Zhuowen and looked at Su Su as he said.

"He's my savior and my sister's friend. The Patriarch definitely wants to see him. If you don't inform him, how do you know the Patriarch won't let him in?" Su Su said with a glare.

When the guard seemed to be saying something, an old voice came from the pavilion, "Let them in."

The guard cupped his hands towards the pavilion and no longer stopped Zhuowen. Then, the two of them entered the depths of the pavilion.

The pavilion's decoration was extremely simple. Other than a wooden bed, there was a wooden table and a few stools. Apart from that, there was nothing else in the pavilion.

On the wooden bed, an old man with a head full of silver hair sat cross-legged. His face was pale and his breathing was chaotic.

After Su Su and Zhuowen entered, the old man opened his eyes. He looked at Su Su kindly and said, "Su 'er, you scared me to death. When you activated the flying divine artifact, I thought you were in some kind of life and death crisis."

Su Su came to the bedside and naturally hugged one of the old man's arms. She said coquettishly, "Patriarch, it's all thanks to my luck. Of course, there's also Brother Zhuo's help …"

As she spoke, Su Su began to talk about what happened when they were running for their lives. The old man listened very carefully.

"Friend, thank you for saving Su 'er!"

The old man looked at Zhuowen with a kind smile, but soon he looked straight at Zhuowen with a serious expression. Then, he said to Su Su, "Su 'er, go out for a moment. I have something to say to this little friend."

Su Su pouted and said, "What is it that you need to hide from me?"

The old man stroked Su Su's hair and said with a smile, "Su 'er, be good!

I really have something important to say to this little friend. Don't be willful, okay? "

Although Su Su was very unwilling, she didn't want to disobey the Patriarch's order. She could only reluctantly nod and leave the pavilion.

In the empty pavilion, only the old man and Zhuowen were left.

"Purple Jade is in your hands. What did you do to Qi 'er?" The old man's eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Zhuowen.
