The Evil King's Favorite: The Princess Is Too Cruel

"Alright, alright, I can't argue with you, old man." Su Qingcang waved his hand, "You're just like your father, you always have a lot of reasons."

Su Qingning curled her lips and muttered softly, "Grandpa, you can't argue with me. You are obviously in the wrong."

Su Qingcang glared and said unhappily, "Ning girl, you see through it but don't say it out loud. Can't you save some face for me, your grandfather?"

"Ahem..." Su Qingning cleared her throat awkwardly, "Okay, I won't say anything more. I'll save your face."

Hearing this, Su Qingcang was somewhat amused and confused. He thought that he had been strong for half his life, but he could not do anything to Su Huaijin and Su Qingning, the father and daughter. One of them was his most beloved son, and the other was his most proud granddaughter. He could neither hit them nor scold them. What else could he do? He could only indulge them!

"Ning girl, you haven't answered my question yet. Are you still blaming grandpa?" Su Qingcang suddenly asked the same question again.

Su Qingning did not answer immediately, but asked: "Then why does Grandpa think that I won't destroy the Su family?"

"Didn't I tell you that you're a lot like your father?" Su Qingcang said, "You two are both tough on the outside but soft on the inside. You say you want to destroy the Su family, but when the Su family is really in danger, don't you still come back to save us?"

Hard-spoken but soft-hearted?

Su Qingning was a little stunned. She had always thought that after experiencing the events of her previous life, her heart had become as cold as a stone. But it turned out that without her knowing it, someone had warmed her heart with love.

"Grandpa, you said you were old, but I think your eyes are sharper than anyone else's." Su Qingning smiled and said, "You guessed right. When I first came back, I was indeed full of resentment towards the Su family, but since I learned the reason why you drove us out of the imperial capital, I have gradually let it go."

"Since you've let it go, why did you pass the position of Patriarch to Ziang?"

Su Qingcang was puzzled. He thought that Su Qingning's words of relief were a lie, and she must still be resentful of him in her heart.

"Grandpa, I really don't blame you." Su Qingning sighed and explained, "The reason I want my eldest brother to be the head of the family is because he is more suitable to be the head of this family than me. My eldest brother is mature and stable, while I prefer freedom. The position of head of the family is more of a constraint for me; and..."

Su Qingning paused and said firmly, "I have more important things to do."

Hearing this, Su Qingcang frowned slightly. He asked doubtfully, "Now that the Tiandao Sect has been destroyed and the Demon Martial Continent has been stabilized, do you have anything important to do?"

"Of course, I'm going to find my father and uncle."

Su Qingning calmly dropped a bomb, hitting the unprepared Su Qingcang.

"What?!" Su Qingcang's eyes widened. He looked at Su Qingning in disbelief and asked with a trembling voice, "What did you just say?"

Su Qingning felt somewhat guilty when she saw Su Qingcang, whose hair was gray and whose face looked much older.

She knew that the deaths of Su Huaiyang and Su Jingya had caused great harm to Su Qingcang, but she did not regret her decision. As long as Su Huaiyang's family was not killed, it would be difficult to appease the public anger and eliminate the hatred in her heart.

However, she did kill Grandpa's son after all, so as compensation, she should help him find his other two missing sons!

"Grandpa, I said I wanted to go find my dad and uncle."

Su Qingning said it again, and this time, Su Qingcang heard it clearly. He asked with a hint of anticipation: "Why did you suddenly want to go look for your father and uncle? Aren't they dead? Did you find any clues?"

These three questions in a row were enough to prove that Su Qingcang had always been brooding over the disappearance of Su Huaijin and Su Huaiyu. This was a knot in his heart, and if it could not be untied, he would probably never be able to rest in peace until his death.

"Grandpa, do you know what I saw when I went to Tiandao Sect this time?" Su Qingning asked.

Su Qingcang shook his head. He did not participate in the campaign against the Tiandao Sect, so naturally he did not know what happened in the Tiandao Sect. He also did not know that there were three elves in Jinyuan who were being watched by everyone.

"Ning girl, what did you see?" Su Qingcang asked anxiously, "Is there any news about your father and uncle there?"

"I guess so!" Su Qingning nodded, her voice slightly raised. "You can't imagine what I saw in Tiandao Sect. I was shocked when I saw it."

Su Qingcang's curiosity was completely aroused. He was almost anxious to death when he saw Su Qingning's leisurely pace.

Ouch! I'm so anxious, why don't you tell me quickly! Su Qingcang urged anxiously in his heart.

"Elf, I saw an elf in Tiandao Sect."

Su Qingning finally said it, but Su Qingcang was shocked by two words in her words.

"W…what? Elves?!"

Su Qingcang was so shocked that he started stuttering.

"Yes, elf." Su Qingning nodded and said with a smile: "Grandpa, do you also feel very strange and surprised?"

Su Qingcang nodded blankly, "What on earth is going on? Ning girl, tell me in detail."

Next, Su Qingning briefly recounted what happened in the Tiandao Sect. She focused on why the Elf King and the siblings An Yu and An Ran appeared in the Demonic Martial Continent.

When Su Qingcang considered the fact that Su Qingning was looking for Su Huaijin and Su Huaiyu, he understood what his granddaughter was thinking.

"Ning girl, do you think the demons have a teleportation array connecting the Demon Martial Continent and the Shenzhou Continent? Since the Elf King and his men were able to reach the Demon Martial Continent through some strange combination of circumstances, then your father and uncle can naturally go to the Shenzhou Continent as well."

Su Qingning did not deny Su Qingcang's guess. She smiled and praised him, "Grandpa is worthy of being the head of the family for so many years. He understood what I meant so quickly."

"So, you plan to go to the Demon Tribe, right?" Su Qingcang asked.

Su Qingning nodded, "Yes, in a few days, I will go to the Demon Tribe with the Elf King and the others."

Su Qingcang was naturally delighted to learn that his third son and youngest son might still be alive, but he could never let his granddaughter take risks for this uncertain news.

"No, I don't agree." Su Qingcang refused firmly. He looked at Su Qingning and advised earnestly, "Ning girl, all this is just your speculation. You can't be sure that your father and uncle are still alive. Therefore, I can't let you go to the Demon Tribe. I have already lost two excellent sons. I can't lose you, my granddaughter, and the Su family can't lose you as the head of the family either."

Su Qingning could understand Su Qingcang's worries, but she would not easily change her decision; besides, even if it was not to find her father and uncle, she had to go to the demon tribe.

After all, the missing ingredient in the purification potion to treat Yun Ruopiao, the Demon Spirit Flower, is in the demon clan.
