Chapter 96: Breaking Off Relations (3)

After passing through the Su palace’s main courtyard, they headed towards a small pavilion in the lake

Su Chen stood behindbehind Su Changche. He lowered his head and said, “Patriarch.”

“What? You aren’t even willing to call me grandfather?” Su Changche said, not bothering to look back.

Su Chen was silent.

Su Changche turned around to watch Su Chen, then sighed and said, “In the end, I underestimated you, and so did the Su Clan…… Who could have expected that your eyes actually had already recovered.”

Su Chen was still silent.

He could tell from Su Changche’s attitude that Su Changche had definitely seen through his act.

In reality, no matter how hard Su Chen tried to pretend, there were still differences between blind people and people with sight. That was especially true in matters of the focus of their vision, as slight differences would exist between objects that they could see and could not see.

Though it may have been hard to tell in a short period of time, as time passed by, attentive people would always discover that there was something off.

Su Changche was someone with a wealth of experience.

As an old man who had single-handedly established the Su Clan, he was much stronger than anyone else in terms of both vision and experience.

It was not surprising in the least that he was the first one to discover.

In fact, long before this moment, he had already begun to have his suspicions about Su Chen.

However, because this matter was too uncommon, Su Changche could only be suspicious, yet had no way of verifying it.

Until today!

The stare he gave Su Cheng’an, as well as his precise blocking of Su Cheng’an’s attack – while others might think that it was only a coincidence, Su Changche knew that wasn’t the truth!

Su Chen’s eyes had recovered.

“Can you tell me when it happened?” Su Changche said gently.

“Not long ago,” Su Chen faintly replied.

“Why were you unwilling to tell us?”

Su Chen thought for a moment, then replied, “The first day that I could see again, I ran into a number of unfortunate situations. One of my brothers placed iron needles in my carriage; a pair of liars conspired to steal money from the True Jade Pavilion that I managed. A servant wanted to benefit from selling out his master…… That old beggar was right. When I was again able to see the world, I discovered many things that people with sight could not see. Everyone believed that I was blind, so they unrestrainedly displayed their evilness in front of me. Although this made me feel disgusted, it gave me a simple method to see through a person’s heart.”

Su Changche nodded his head. “So that’s why you were unwilling to vocalize it. You discovered that acting in such a manner would benefit you more? But did you ever think that everything proceeded to this point only because you didn’t say anything?”

“You are talking about the unfortunate encounters in the Su Clan?” Su Chen coldly laughed, “I expected those from the very beginning.”

“What did you say?” Su Changche was speechless.

Su Chen slowly raised his hand.

An air tentacle appeared formed following this gesture of his.

His hand gestures changed once again, and a Meg’s Guardian barrier appeared on his body.

Next, his hand slashed out through the air, and thunder rumbled.
