C2 Innocence

0"Young master."

After Liu Hsing and the guards left, most of the servants at the entrance of the courtyard quietly left. A young maid timidly walked over.    

    

She called Su Ze and then said, "I believe that young master will not go and take Master Su Hee's Element Gathering Powder."    

    

Su Ze did not care about this. Since Su Bocheng had sent Liu Hsing to cause trouble, how could he not have any follow-up measures? This matter wasn't something that could be stopped by Su Ze proving his innocence, and it wasn't something that could be decided by whether the young maid believed him or not.    

    

As expected, after an hour, a servant came to pass a message to Su Ze.    

    

"Grand Elder has called for the family to discuss the matter at the ancestral temple. Young Master Su Ze, please go there as soon as possible."    

    

Su Ze sneered, as expected.    

    

Su Ze passed through the courtyard of the Su family and arrived in front of the ancestral temple. Many members of the Su family had already gathered at the entrance of the ancestral temple. Many of them seemed to have heard the news and were discussing with Su Ze in a low voice.    

    

Su Ze looked at them and immediately stopped.    

    

Weren't they framing him? Didn't they want him to be spurned by tens of thousands of people?    

    

Su Ze sneered in his heart. How could such a lowly method be put on the table?    

    

Currently, he had the Profound Rank Low Grade Martial Skill and Earth Spirit Top Grade Root Bone that the Su family had never owned before. Even if he was only an Acquired Level 5, he had no fear when facing these mediocre people.    

    

Su Ze smiled and walked into the ancestral temple.    

    

There were more than a dozen juniors of the Su family standing in the courtyard of the ancestral temple. There was Su Hee from the Great Elder's hometown, Su Hai from the Third Elder family, and Su Jiang from the Fourth Elder family, as well as other juniors from other branches.    

    

When Su Ze saw them, he also saw Su Ze. Many of them started laughing.    

    

So many of their peers were enemies, not friends.    

    

His memory was indeed correct. Su Ze's father, Su Zhongwu, was the patriarch, but Grand Elder and the others held a lot of power. He could not make decisions alone in the family.    

    

The family meeting held in the ancestral temple of Su family was originally decided by the patriarch, but at this moment, Grand Elder was able to gather the entire family.    

    

At the same time, Su Ze had just stood in the courtyard when he heard an angry shout coming from the Ancestral Temple, "I don't agree!"    

    

The Ancestral Temple instantly became silent. The people from the Su family who were whispering to each other stopped doing those petty tricks.    

    

Su Ze could tell that this was his father. Su Zhongwu's voice was heard, so he walked towards the Ancestral Temple.    

    

"Su Ze, the elders are all discussing matters in the Ancestral Temple. What are you going to do?"    

    

Grand Elder's son, Su Hee, spoke. His tone was filled with pride and ridicule as he spoke to Su Ze.    

    

Su Ze looked at him with a disdainful smile, then walked into the hall from the courtyard.    

    

Su Hee's smile froze on his face and he shouted, "Su Ze! You dare to ignore me?"    

    

Su Ze ignored his angry roar. He stood in the hall and saw the situation inside.    

    

Grand Elder, Su Bocheng, was leisurely sitting on the left side of the hall with a cup of tea in his hand. On the left side, there was a row of chairs. There were Third Elder and Fourth Elder sitting on them. They were the two Old Su from the previous generation of the Su family.    

    

Su Ze's father, Su Zhongwu, was sitting at the top of the chair on the right. There was only one Old Su from the Su family sitting on the chair on the right.    

    

At this moment, Su Zhongwu's face was flushed red. He had just slammed his palm on the table and was glaring at the Third Elder Su Shuye. The angry shout just now was from him.    

    

When Su Zhongwu saw Su Ze, he was startled, and he furrowed his brows.    

    

The Third Elder Su Shuye laughed and said, "Perfect! The suspect is here!"    

    

Grand Elder and the Fourth Elder also revealed joyful expressions.    

    

Su Ze opened his mouth and said indifferently, "The reason for the grand meeting in the ancestral temple is for me?"    

    

"That's right, it was for you!" The Third Elder said, but changed its tone. "But it's not just you!"    

    

"As the son of the patriarch, you stole a portion of Su Hee's Element Gathering Powder. Although the Element Gathering Powder was not worth a few taels of silver, your style was not proper. It was enough to show that you were not worthy of being the son of the patriarch of Su family! "    

    

"That's why we have a meeting to discuss this matter and remove your identity as the son of the Su family's patriarch. We have to chase you out of the Su family to avoid bringing shame to the Su family! "    

    

"I don't agree! Su Ze was an Earth Spirit Low Grade Root Bone. He doesn't need to do such a thing!" Su Zhongwu stood up and shouted.    

    

Su Ze saw that his father was so protective of him and remembered what happened in the past. He said naturally, "Father, please wait a moment. You don't need to be so angry. Let me explain."    

    

Su Zhongwu looked at him skeptically.    

    

Grand Elder laughed lightly and the Third Elder laughed out loud. "You are still so young and you don't know anything!"    

    

"I don't know much, but I know more than you." Su Ze said faintly, "Even at my age, I know how to speak without any basis. Third Elder, how can you not know?"    

    

The Third Elder's face instantly turned red, "You have no respect for your elders! You are too arrogant!"    

    

Su Ze smiled calmly. "The person with the highest status in our Su family is not you, but the patriarch."    

    

"You ignored the patriarch and sentenced me by force. Am I arrogant, or are you arrogant? "    

    

" You! " The Third Elder was so angry that it could not speak.    

    

Su Ze said again, "You can't refute me, right? You said that I stole a portion of the Element Gathering Powder as an Acquired Level 5 Expert with an Earth Spirit Root Bone? Do you have proof?"    

    

"Evidence?"    

    

Before the Third Elder could react, Grand Elder could only speak. He seemed to sigh helplessly. "Su Ze, don't persist any longer. All the witnesses and physical evidence are there, you can't deny it. Someone, bring the witnesses and physical evidence here."    

    

" No need! " Su Ze waved his hand. "You arranged all the evidence beforehand, didn't you?"    

    

He asked again, "Element Gathering Powder, ten taels of silver should be enough to buy one, right?"    

    

Su Bocheng did not know what he meant by saying these words, so he vaguely said, "Pretty much."    

    

"What if someone spent twenty taels of silver to buy an Element Gathering Powder?" Su Ze asked again.    

    

"Then he must be an idiot." Su Bocheng said impatiently, "What do you want to say?"    

    

"I want to prove that I did not steal the Element Gathering Powder, and also prove how ridiculous Grand Elder's plan was." Su Ze said to the crowd, "I only have two requests. First, they must keep quiet. Second, I will call Su Hee over to ask him a question."    

    

Su Bocheng frowned slightly and felt a little uneasy. "This has nothing to do with Su Hee."    

    

Su Ze smiled. "If you panic, then you will admit defeat and admit that you have lied."    

    

"You are simply messing around!" Su Bocheng shouted.    

    

"Then I will ask Su Hee a few questions." Su Ze said. He walked to the door of the hall and called Su Hee in. He said directly, "Su Hee, I heard from the witness that you spent twenty taels of silver to buy the Element Gathering Powder you lost. Is that so?"    

    

When Grand Elder heard this question, he immediately cried out in shock and wanted to stop Su Hee from answering.    

    

"Be careful!"    

    

When Su Hee heard that this was what the witness said, he immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Yes."    

    

After that, he heard what Grand Elder said and looked at the people in Ancestral Temple in a daze.    

    

What happened?    

    

What he didn't know was that his answer just now had exposed Grand Elder's lie. His interconnected plan had suddenly made a mistake, and he could no longer justify himself!
