Su Kongshan appeared and took charge of the Enforcement Hall
Su Chen gave him a cold look, his voice icy. "As the head of the Enforcement Hall, you have failed in your duties and neglected your responsibilities."
Su Jing'an immediately knelt on the ground and kept admitting his mistakes. He was even trembling with fear.
Su Nanming, who was standing to the side, was stunned.
This was the first time he had seen his father like this.
It turns out that even his father wasn't omnipotent.
Su Chen looked around; everyone's expression was different. He shook his head. In truth, these people were all minor figures, and it wasn't his place to deal with them personally.
"Su Kongshan!"
A highly penetrating voice rang out.
In a secluded Cave Abode within Wangyun Mountain, Su Kongshan, who had just broken through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor and was consolidating his Cultivation Level, suddenly froze upon hearing this voice.
Family Head!
Why is he calling me at this time?
The Enforcement Hall was originally controlled by his father, the Fifth Elder, but Su Yunpeng went into seclusion to cultivate many years ago and rarely appeared in the world.
Even when venturing out, it's to hone and refine one's Cultivation Level.
He basically no longer manages the affairs of the Enforcement Hall; he handles most of the administration.
Since he also needed to cultivate, he directly handed over the management of the Enforcement Hall to a younger generation, and then focused on cultivating to break through to the Quasi-Emperor.
As soon as Su Kongshan stepped out of the Cave Abode, a man hurriedly stepped forward. He was dressed in the robes of the Enforcement Hall, clearly a member of the Enforcement Hall.
"Reporting to the Elder!"
The Enforcement Hall was also Elder in Su Chen's eyes, and his status was much higher than that of an ordinary Elder.
Su Kongshan said calmly, "Speak."
The latter immediately reported everything that had happened in the Outer Court.
After listening, Su Kongshan's expression darkened slightly with anger. "Absurd."
After saying that, he vanished from the spot in an instant.
How could something like this happen in the Su Family? A group of juniors went to cause trouble for Su Chen and even hurled insults at him?
These bastards not only don't recognize Su Chen, but they also dare to act so recklessly.
Outer Court.
Su Kongshan's figure suddenly appeared in the dilapidated courtyard of Zhou Erpu.
Many people present changed their expressions upon seeing him, especially Su Jing'an, whose face turned extremely grim. During his time acting as the head of the Enforcement Hall, he had gained considerable benefits from his position.
These things cannot withstand scrutiny.
As long as Su Kongshan didn't specifically investigate, everything would be fine, but now it seems I'm probably doomed.
Su Kongshan knelt down on one knee before Su Chen, and said respectfully, "Greetings Family Head."
His kneeling further convinced countless people that the young man was indeed the Family Head.
Many people fell into deep silence. Su Wanggui and his group of young masters were truly courting death. Of all people to offend, they had to provoke the Family Head.
Many people arrived early and overheard what Su Wanggui and Su Nanming had said to Su Chen. They exchanged glances and then fell silent.
This kind of thing... was indeed somewhat unexpected.
Su Nanming and Su Wanggui were ashen-faced, utterly despairing. Neither of them had ever imagined that their opponent was actually Su Chen, the Head of the Su Family!
Just then, another figure appeared in the Courtyard. He knelt down directly before Su Chen and bowed respectfully.
"Greetings, Family Head!"
Father!
Su Wanggui looked at the person who had come, and his face became extremely pained. However, his father only glanced at him helplessly.
Although Su Wanggui was usually mischievous, he at least knew his limits and wouldn't cause trouble, so he didn't bother with it.
I never expected something like this to happen today.
Ignoring everyone else, Su Chen looked directly at Su Kongshan and said in an icy voice, "Elder Su, as Elder of the Enforcement Hall, is this how you handle the Su Family's affairs?"
"The Su Family now has a large population, and law enforcement is of great importance. Do you feel you have fulfilled the responsibilities of the Enforcement Hall?"
Su Kongshan remained silent, his head bowed and his expression grave as he said, "Family Head, I will give you a satisfactory explanation for what happened today."
The fault does lie with him, and that must be acknowledged. Although he has indeed focused on his Cultivation Level in recent years, that is not an excuse to shirk responsibility.
Su Chen didn't say much. He gave Su Kongshan a deep look, and then disappeared from the spot.
"Zhou Erpu and Zhou Yingxue are descendants of Zhou Qishan, so let's assign them to work in the Inner Court."
After leaving behind a single sentence, Su Chen vanished without a trace.
He couldn't be bothered to handle such matters personally.
Silence fell over the world once more, and everyone's gaze returned to Su Kongshan. Everyone knew that the Su Family was about to be plunged into turmoil.
Everyone present, even those who were just watching the show, dared not breathe loudly.
The grandfather and grandson of Zhou Erpu were already speechless with shock. They had thought that Su Chen had some status in the Within the Su Family, but they never expected that he would actually be the Head of the Su Family.
Su Kongshan stood up and turned to give Su Jing'an a cold look. The latter felt a chill run down his spine and goosebumps all over his body.
The next moment.
A terrifying pressure enveloped him, making Su Jing'an feel as if he had fallen into an abyss, with endless death surrounding him.
This is... Quasi-Emperor!
Su Jing'an wanted to beg for mercy, but it felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his neck tightly, preventing him from speaking.
Su Anshan raised his hand and waved it, causing blood to spurt from his body Cultivation Level to plummet.
"Su Jing'an has violated the Lineage law and Clan Rules. As the acting Enforcement Hall, he has defied the law. His Cultivation Level Abolition, Beheading in Three Days."
His voice was icy cold, as if he were announcing something trivial.
Su Jing'an felt a stinging pain all over his body, his eyes filled with despair. His dantian was shattered, and his Cultivation Level naturally dissipated completely.
Why!
Su Jing'an's eyes were filled with confusion. Why would they directly abolish his Cultivation Level? I am Half-step Immortal Venerable! Although I did violate the Clan Rules, why go to such extremes?
He had assumed he would be dealt with, at most receiving a very severe punishment, but he never expected it to be this serious.
Beheading!
Everyone present felt a chill run down their spine.
Many people couldn't help but swallow hard, their eyes filled with fear.
Su Kongshan raised his hand again and waved it to the side, instantly crippling the Cultivation Level of a group of juniors, who fell back to mortal status.
"You will be imprisoned in the Dungeon for now. Once Elder have investigated and determined the charges, I will decide whether to exile you or Beheading."
What!?
The younger generation was immediately terrified.
Exile or Beheading!
Does this mean their best outcome is exile?
"Someone come here!"
Su Kongshan roared, and two figures suddenly appeared beside him. Both were wearing the robes of the Enforcement Hall and Cultivation Level extremely powerful cultivation, at the Immortal Venerable Cultivation Level.
"Tie Su Jing'an up and take him to the Su Family's doorstep."
This is a rule of the Su Family: the person to Beheading must be tied up at the Su Family's gate before the killing, so that everyone knows what the consequences are for violating the Clan Rules.
After dealing with these people, Su Kongshan did not directly attack the Within the Su Family members, but instead first slashed the main artery of the Enforcement Hall.
