Su Clan

Biodata

Background

The Su Clan is an ancient cultivation aristocratic clan with extensive inherited techniques, resources, and secret methods. It is particularly famous for saber cultivation; its Heavenly River Saber Technique is renowned throughout the Cultivation World. The clan possesses rare saber-cultivation resources, including enough Saber Intent Tongxuan for Su Clan’s Sixteen to consume more than fifty stalks before forming her own Saber Intent 124 750.

The clan maintains dealings with the Sea Tribe and has knowledge of figures such as the Golden Dragon Ancestor 1134. Its members also operate trained hunting teams against the Limitless Demon Sect, whose techniques they know how to counter 539.

A major early conflict arose when an impostor used Su Clan’s Seven’s appearance and signature saber technique to steal the Immortal Farmer Sect’s Seven Radiant Wonderfruit and frame him. The real Seven had sought the fruit to treat a junior injured during tribulation, while the impostor’s attack was designed to incite a clash between the two factions 134 135.

Organization and Traditions

Numbered Daoist Name Legacies

The clan preserves a system of numbered Daoist-name inheritances. Su Clan’s Sixteen was not originally named “A-@@REF_ENTITY_17257448@@”; she inherited the title through a clan ritual, abandoning her prior name and receiving the protection associated with the Su Clan’s Eternal Life Fairy 2929.

• Numbered members include Su Clan’s A-Si, A-Four, A-Five, A-Seven, and A-@@REF_ENTITY_17257448@@. 2184 2425 2426
• The tradition is tied to the clan’s ancestral protection and broader inheritance rather than being merely a naming convention. 2929
• Su Clan’s Sixteen retained the personalities of her many “Little Sixteen” counterparts rather than merging them into one consciousness, an outcome accepted by the clan’s Shielding Fairy. 3092

Ancestral Legacy

The clan’s history is closely linked to Su Clan Knot and the mysterious Su Clan Shielding Fairy.

• Su Clan Knot was believed dead, but appeared during Su Clan’s Seven’s Heart Demon Tribulation, extracted the Heart Demon from him, and ate it “like a biscuit.” 1276
• Knot later resurfaced publicly at the annual gathering, despite the clan having maintained his spirit tablet as though he were deceased. 2184 2426
• The Shielding Fairy oversees the clan’s trials and possesses a Way of Longevity represented as a Heavenly River sheltering the stars that symbolize her protected clansmen. 2932
• The clan’s Ancestral Star is a concealed reincarnation ground connected to the Underworld and a separate small world. It safeguards relics of the Fifth Heavenly Way, including the Samsara Blade. 3093

Territories and Institutions

• Su Star Book Pavilion — a major clan gathering site where elders, stewards, and prominent numbered members assemble. 2425
• Ancestral Hall — houses the spirit tablets of past Su Clan ancestors and serves as the site through which Sixteen contacted the Shielding Fairy’s incarnation. 3091
• Su Clan Ancestral Star — a distant, protected domain accessible through the Shielding Fairy’s Rainbow Bridge. 3092 3093
• Heavenly River Secret Realm — identified as the clan’s place of origin on Earth, despite later associations with the Ancestral Star. 3093

Notable Members

Security and Combat

The Su Clan’s reputation is supported by both its saber inheritance and its ability to pursue hostile cultivators.

• The clan is known to possess formidable interrogation methods, including methods to extract information from a deceased captive’s soul. 124
• Its specialized hunting teams ambushed two Fourth-Grade Limitless Demon Sect infiltrators near Song Shuhang’s residence by exploiting weaknesses in the sect’s methods. 539
• Although the infiltrators escaped through the Blood Escape Technique, the hunters captured portions of their blood mist, potentially preserving memories, treasures, and “silver blood” for investigation. 539
• Su Clan’s Seven destroyed an entire Jiangnan Limitless Demon Sect branch by himself, leaving other branches fearful of attracting the clan’s attention. 161 168

Annual Gathering

The Heavenly River Su Clan Annual Gathering is a prestigious clan event that may occur only once every decade or several decades. It brings together clan members, major outside figures, and invited cultivators from the Nine Provinces Number One Group 1877.

• Su Clan’s Seven invited Song Shuhang because his status as Profound Sage Tyrannical Song brought substantial prestige to the clan. 1877
• Knot’s public return became a centerpiece of the gathering, overturning the belief that he had died. 2426
• Song Shuhang’s Scatter Wealth Throne was incorporated into the opening ceremony, allowing Su Clan disciples and guests to enter the throne and select treasures connected to their fate. 2430
• The ritual significantly improved Song Shuhang’s standing among younger Su Clan members, who came to regard him as a generous and formidable senior. 2430

Relationships

• Nine Provinces Number One Group — Su Clan’s Seven is a longstanding member, and the clan’s annual gathering hosted many group members. 3 2427
• Song Shuhang — trusted ally of Seven and Sixteen; invited to the annual gathering, assisted Sixteen’s trial through the Scatter Wealth Throne, and was later given broad acceptance by the clan. 2184 2433
• Sea Tribe — the Su Clan has longstanding cooperation with the Sea Tribe. 1134
• Immortal Farmer Sect — relations were strained after an impostor framed Su Clan’s Seven for stealing the Seven Radiant Wonderfruit and attacking sect disciples. 132 134 135
• Limitless Demon Sect — an active adversary targeted by Su Clan hunting teams and feared for Seven’s destruction of its Jiangnan branch. 161 539

Trivia

• The clan’s “annual” gathering is not necessarily held every year; it may be delayed for decades. 1877
• Su Clan Knot’s title predates the clan’s numbered-name convention; group members speculate that knots may once have been used for counting. 1276
• The clan’s members jokingly developed a suspicion of people surnamed Song after Sixteen’s connection with Song Shuhang became widely known. 3092 3093
