53: How about we apologize to Su Ming?
"Ah???"
Everyone was stunned.
"R-really?? The poem that caused the celestial phenomenon was really written by Su Ming??!!"
"That's illogical, it's illogical!!! Who in the entire Da Gan doesn't know that Su Ming is an uneducated good-for-nothing!!"
The merchant from before continued to whisper:
"And I also heard that the poem from our Da Gan earlier wasn't actually created by Chen Xiuyu, but was originally created by Su Ming! Martial Saint acted to seal the news, which is why he gave this supreme honor to Chen Xiuyu!"
Upon hearing this, someone flushed red and reprimanded loudly.
"Nonsense!!! Young Master Chen is the number one genius of our Da Gan, skilled in both literature and martial arts! You actually said that the peerless verse that saved forty thousand elite soldiers of our Da Gan was not made by Young Master Chen, but by Su Ming? What a joke!!!"
The others also looked disdainful.
"Heh heh, the more they say, the more outrageous it gets. In my opinion, this is just false news released by Northern Wilderness, deliberately trying to disgust our Da Gan!"
Before they could finish talking, two more pieces of news, like bombshells, fell into the ears of the Da Gan people.
"What?? Su Ming is already a Martial Dao Fifth Grade peak expert??"
"That devastating plan that caused our Da Gan to lose a hundred thousand elite soldiers was also offered by him to Northern Wilderness Empress??!!! And Northern Wilderness Empress has already conferred him the title of Second Rank Prince??!!"
As soon as these two pieces of news came out, the entire Da Gan instantly boiled over like a pot.
"Beast!!! What a beast!!! He's still a person of our Da Gan, doesn't he understand the principle of 'when the lips are gone, the teeth are cold'!!! What good does doing this do him!!!"
"Everyone, don't get agitated yet, we haven't confirmed whether this news is true or false!!"
"Nonsense!!! This news has already spread, and if Su Ming hadn't rendered great service to Northern Wilderness, how could Northern Wilderness Empress have conferred him the title of Second Rank Prince?! That's a Second Rank Prince!!!"
After a brief period of angry curses, those who calmed down felt a wave of shock and regret.
Such a terrifying person should have been a talent for Da Gan, helping Da Gan eliminate Northern Wilderness, but now he has actually defected to Northern Wilderness and is eliminating his own people. What exactly went wrong!!
"Alas, Martial Saint was muddled!!! How could he have let Su Ming defect to Northern Wilderness in the first place!!"
Someone gritted their teeth and cursed in a low voice:
"Are those four women of Su Family blinded by Chen Xiuyu? Their own younger brother is so capable, and they, as older sisters, don't even know? Our heavy losses this time are all their responsibility!!"
"Shh!! Keep your voice down, if it really reaches the ears of those four adults, you'll definitely be in trouble!"
"Hmph, what's there not to say!!! I think it might really be as the rumors say, that the poem from our Da Gan earlier was indeed written by Su Ming!!"
........
Da Gan Capital, Su Mansion.
Chen Xiuyu, with a pale face, slowly opened his eyes, and what met his gaze were four beautiful faces filled with worry.
"Young Master Chen, you're finally awake!!"
Seeing Chen Xiuyu open his eyes, the Su Family Four Sisters, who had been guarding him day and night, were instantly overjoyed, even weeping with joy.
"Young Master Chen, do you know, I thought you wouldn't wake up!!!"
"If you really didn't wake up, how would us four sisters live......"
Chen Xiuyu squeezed out a smile on his pale face, patted Su Yixin, who was crying on him, and then looked up at Su Yiyao, who also had a surprised expression.
"Yiyao, how is the war situation on the front lines?"
Hearing his question, Su Yiyao's originally surprised expression immediately sank, and after a pause of more than ten seconds, she said in a deep voice:
"Our Da Gan's one hundred thousand soldiers were all annihilated, not a single one survived......"
Chen Xiuyu's body suddenly stiffened, his fists clenched tightly, and he squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth.
"Have you found out who came up with that inhumane plan?"
Su Yiyao gently shook her head, but then her eyes burst forth with endless killing intent.
"No matter who that person is, I will definitely find him and then grind him to dust to avenge our Da Gan's one hundred thousand soldiers!!"
Thinking of what Sword Elder had told him in the mysterious space earlier, Chen Xiuyu felt a surge of heroic spirit welling up in his heart.
"Yiyao, don't worry, one day I will make the entire Northern Wilderness regret!"
Just then, one of Su Yiyao's personal guards ran in in a panic, his forehead already covered in cold sweat before he could even speak.
Su Yiyao frowned and asked in a deep voice:
"What happened that made you so flustered?!"
The personal guard swallowed hard before he managed to say with difficulty:
"My Lady, news from Northern Wilderness says that the previous celestial phenomenon in Northern Wilderness Capital was caused by Su Ming, and now this news is not only rampant in Northern Wilderness, but also in Da Gan!"
The Su Family Four Sisters' bodies tensed simultaneously, and even Chen Xiuyu's face on the bed stiffened slightly.
Fortunately, they had already guessed that the poem was written by Su Ming, so their reaction wasn't too drastic.
Su Yiyao pursed her lips, feigning a disdainful expression.
"Hmph, Northern Wilderness will resort to any means to disgust our Da Gan!"
"Spread the word that all of this is a Northern Wilderness conspiracy, and don't easily believe what those people say!"
"But.... but......"
The personal guard didn't move, his expression incredibly complex.
Su Yiyao's expression turned cold, and she reprimanded:
"But what? Hurry up and go!"
The personal guard still didn't move, and gritted his teeth, saying:
"But according to reliable sources, Su Ming has already been conferred the title of Prince Pinggan of Northern Wilderness, and he is the culprit who caused our Da Gan to lose a hundred thousand soldiers!"
Boom~!
As soon as these words came out, the four people in the room felt as if they had been struck by lightning, their minds reeling.
"Impossible..... impossible....... Su Ming grew up under our watch, we know him best, how could he come up with such a malicious plan!"
Su Yixin said with trembling lips.
"Su Ming!! It's Su Ming again!! Why is he so persistent like a haunting ghost!!!"
Chen Xiuyu's face, which had just regained a hint of color, turned deathly pale again. He felt a dull ache in his chest, spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell back onto the bed.
Su Yiyao, at this moment, couldn't care about anything else. She stood rooted to the spot, lost in thought, feeling a sharp pain in her heart.
"Prince Pinggan.... Prince Pinggan..... to pacify our Da Gan....."
"Su Ming, back then, us four sisters only asked you to apologize to Young Master Su. Did you really have to be so ruthless!!!"
"Big Sister, Su Ming is our younger brother after all, why don't we send someone to persuade him to come back!"
At this moment, Su Yike pursed her lips, suddenly looking conflicted as she spoke.
Su Yimiao hesitated for a moment and also nodded.
"Third Sister is right, we didn't know how outstanding Fifth Brother was before, but it's not too late to mend the fence now. Fifth Brother was also angry for a while, if we apologize to him, I believe he will forgive us."
Hearing them speak, Su Yiyao's face turned alternately green and pale. After a long silence, she said to the personal guard in front of her:
"Very well, I will personally write a letter and have our spy stationed in Northern Wilderness Capital deliver it to Su Ming by hand."
