Chapter 273: Scary Person
This ‘TA’ didn’t say who it was, but the people in the International Association definitely knew who it was.
Ever since that live broadcast with Bai Yi, the upper echelons of the International Association had been shaken.
Until today, the truth seemed to have been confirmed.
“TA?” Su Huiqing lowered her eyes and said softly.
Her tone was too complicated. Neither the first elder nor Dugu Heng could tell what she thought.
“You weren’t at the International Association in the past. It’s normal for you not to know who she is.” The first elder sighed. He glanced at Su Huiqing again and said, “Missy, go back first. We will settle this matter.”
This sentence snapped Dugu Heng out of his trance. He retracted his serious expression and gave Su Huiqing a warm smile. “That’s right. First Elder is right. Go back first.”
This matter had nothing to do with Qingqing. Dugu Heng didn’t want to implicate her.
Su Huiqing didn’t insist on staying there. She just smiled and turned to leave.
The moment she closed the door, the smile on her face disappeared, and she pursed her lips tightly. At the same time, her eyes turned deep and profound.
She stood there for a moment before taking out her cell phone. Before she could send a message, she saw a series of messages. They were from Dugu Yusheng, Bai Yi, Gideon, and even a godly thief…
They were probably talking about the same thing and thought that she was back.
Su Huiqing looked at the words on the screen and opened the group chat of monsters. They chatted fervently.
Su Huiqing looked at the chat log in the group chat. Her slender and fair fingers pressed on the virtual keyboard. She lowered her eyes and sent four words in the group chat. “That’s not me.”
After he said that, the entire chat group seemed to have pressed a pause button. The chat group that had been chatting enthusiastically suddenly froze, leaving only that sentence.
‘That’s not me.’
After sending the message, Su Huiqing didn’t care about their thoughts. Instead, she stuffed her phone into her pocket and walked forward with a cold expression.
After returning to her residence, Su Ruohua seemed to have understood. She had Su Huiqing close the door.
“Qingqing, I promised your grandpa that there are some things I can’t tell you.” Su Ruohua didn’t beat around the bush. She looked at Su Huiqing. “He wishes for you and Ah Jiu to be ordinary people for the rest of your life.
“However, your grandpa probably didn’t expect you to have an S-rank bloodline. You are still too weak now. Qingqing, since Principal Dien is willing to be your teacher, you must learn well under him. What he can understand is something that no one in the International Association can match up to.
“Also, the study room of the Su Residences. If you have the ability to go overseas one day, you can return to the Su Residences. The secret compartment in the study room has something you want. At that time, you will understand everything.”
“Mother…” Su Huiqing’s eyes widened in shock when she heard Su Ruohua’s words.
However, Su Ruohua didn’t give her any chance to speak and pushed Su Huiqing out of the door. Her expression remained calm and graceful.
Su Huiqing saw Dugu Heng walking in. She clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and returned to her room.
She initially thought that the Su Family was just an ordinary family, but unexpectedly, the Su Family’s situation was much more complicated than on Unknown Island.
In the room, Dugu Heng looked at Su Huiqing’s figure and sighed. “You haven’t told her yet?”
“The burden on her is too heavy. Back in Green City, my dad helped me carry it. Now, it’s my turn to help her.” Su Ruohua massaged her brows. She had already expected this day to come.
However, she never expected it to come so soon. She never expected her daughter to be more outstanding than she had imagined.
Back then, when Su Lun knew that he might not have much time left, he chose to tell her everything. During that period, she was muddle-headed and could not accept what happened to the Su Family.
Only she knew that fear. Now, she didn’t want Su Huiqing to face it.
With Dugu Heng around, Qingqing would definitely be better off with so many friends around. This was also one of the reasons she chose to come to the Dugu Family.
…
The next day…
Dugu Heng came looking for Su Huiqing early in the morning. When he came in, Su Huiqing was tidying her bag.
“Qingqing, attend Principal Dien’s class.” Dugu Heng glanced at her and instructed her solemnly.
Su Huiqing nodded and smiled. “Don’t worry.”
“Master, the Bai Family…” At this moment, the first elder rushed over with a flustered expression that Su Huiqing had never seen before. “The Bai Family is here. They said that Su S is back. He came back with her and His Highness Ling Jun from the Void Island!”
“Ling Jun?” Dugu Heng’s expression changed slightly.
However, he was obviously much calmer than the first elder. In just a moment, his expression returned to normal. “I understand.”
“Qingqing, go to Principal Dien’s place first. I have some matters to attend to.” Dugu Heng didn’t leave immediately but told Su Huiqing.
The Bai Family guards waiting behind the first elder saw Dugu Heng’s attitude and couldn’t help but look at Su Huiqing in wonder.
Su Huiqing placed her school bag on her back and stuffed one hand into her pocket. She smiled at Dugu Heng.
Dugu Heng didn’t have time to say anything. He left with the first elder and the Bai Family guards. From their panicked backs, she could tell how anxious they were.
In the distance, Su Huiqing calmly took out her earpiece, put it on, and slowly walked forward.
She was still thinking… Your Highness Ling Jun?
This was the first time she heard this.
What Dugu Heng and the others didn’t know was that in Su Huiqing’s backpack, there was a silver mask of ‘Su S’ that they feared!
…
Principal Dien was giving her lessons, and the location was naturally not at Monster University. These few families had a tacit understanding and would not interfere with the lives of ordinary people. They all had a common high-level training location.
It was the core power of the International Association.
There were quite a number of people training here every day. Some were working hard for the family training grounds while others were preparing for the competition for resources. When Su Huiqing went there—for the first time, she felt that there were so many capable people in the International Association.
Not only her, even Dugu Ji-An—who never left the house—was there.
Upon seeing Su Huiqing, he cupped his hands respectfully. “Missy.”
However, he seemed distracted today and looked towards the southern sky.
Su Huiqing took off an earpiece, raised her eyes, and gave him a faint smile. She then looked at the sky to the south and narrowed her eyes slightly. Was there some big shot coming?
With her standing around like this, Yu Shiyue and Dugu Xing—who were not far away—saw her. Yu Shiyue frowned. “How did we meet her here?”
“Probably because she heard that His Highness Ling Jun would come.” Dugu Xing sneered.
“Her?” Yu Shiyue’s face was filled with disgust, and his heart was already filled with disgust. “Does she think she was so great just because Principal Dien accepted her as his disciple? Let’s not talk about her. Miss Xing, you know the people from Unknown Island. Would that person really come back with Ling Jun?”
Su S actually knew Ling Jun. She was also from Unknown Island.
When this news spread—not to mention him, even those families would try to get close to the people from Unknown Island.
Hearing that, Dugu Xing smiled. “Of course. I know Miss Su Chen from Unknown Island.”
Although he didn’t know who Su Chen was, Yu Shiyue felt more at ease after hearing Dugu Xing’s words. He no longer had any reservations.
However, he wasn’t the only one who heard that. Su Huiqing was also standing not far away.
Su Huiqing turned around and walked towards Principal Dien’s lecture hall. She had yet to put on her earpiece when she heard the words ‘Su Chen’ and stopped in her tracks.
Her eyes were dark.
At this moment, another commotion broke out at the door.
It was Dugu Heng’s group. Not only Dugu Heng was there, but the head of the Yu Family and the head of the Bai Family were with him.
The lineup was unprecedentedly powerful.
Following that, a group of guards separated the surrounding young disciples into a three-meter wide road.
The young disciples, who were guessing which big shot would come today, didn’t dare to say a word.
Under the brilliant sunlight, a ray of light flashed across the horizon, followed by rumbling sounds.
Everyone instinctively looked towards the horizon.
A golden fighter jet slowly stopped in front of Dugu Heng and the rest. A few people in blue robes came down and stood respectfully on both sides.
Following that, two figures descended—a man and a woman.
The man was wearing a long golden robe. The overly dazzling clothes didn’t press down on his face. Because of this, his face was glowing.
The woman was wearing a fiery red dress. She had a beautiful face and black hair. It made her look extremely seductive.
Su Huiqing stood rooted to the ground and stared coldly at the woman in red. Her eyes were filled with an indescribable coldness.
“Who is that? How can there be so many family heads coming to fetch them? Such a mighty presence?” Not everyone knew these two people.
Someone asked doubtfully.
Someone else obviously knew and said excitedly, “That’s His Highness Ling Jun. You guys have never participated in the competition before. I just want to say that he came from the Void Island. And you guys must know that person beside him… That’s Su S from Unknown Island. Have you forgotten?!”
