Chapter 16 Reaper’s Powerful Remedy

The banquet hall was a mess.

All the family members started cursing Su Wencheng and Su Beishan. They had annoyed Qin Tian, so Reaper’s Gem appeared in the house.

None had expected Qin Tian to become the Reaper after being missing for five years.

As he said, if his orders were not obeyed, the Su family would drop off the surface of the Earth in 10 days.

All the family members panicked.

Several elders, Su Beishan’s siblings and cousins, started blaming him, “Su Beishan, you are the master of our family. How could you have made such a terrible mistake?”

“Reaper’s Gem has appeared. What will you do to rescue us?”

They scolded Su Beishan fiercely, aiming to kick him off the position of the family master.

According to their family rules, if the family leader caused a huge loss for the family, other elders had the qualification to remove the leader and elect a new one.

Su Beishan didn’t respond, gritting his teeth.

He had been the family leader over several decades and was always proud. He didn’t expect to end up this way.

“Stop arguing!”

“I’ll talk to Qin Tian personally.”

“It’s my fault, so I’ll resolve the problem myself. If he's really Reaper, I’ll end my life in his presence as an apology. None of you will be dragged into the mire.”

With those words, Su Beishan was about to run out.

“Dad, Mom, Grandpa... Oops, you all are here,” a woman’s enchanting voice sounded.

Su Nan, dressed up, swung into the villa.

Noticing their frustration, she chuckled, “What happened? Why do you look so upset?”

“Isn’t it a festival today? We’re supposed to celebrate it. Are you unhappy I arrive late?”

“I’ve married into the Wu family, so I must obey their family rules.”

“Here I came.”

She ordered her maids to present the gifts to her family.

Several maids carried down boxes of gifts from her luxury car, distributing them to the family members.

However, the gifts didn’t delight them at all.

“What on earth happened?” Su Nan sensed that something had gone wrong.

Su Wencheng muttered to her, “Qin Tian has returned, Nan.”

“Who did you say?” Qin Tian’s name made Su Nan’s expression change slightly. A trace of panic flashed through her eyes.

Upon hearing others’ words, Su Nan smiled in disdain.

She picked up Reaper’s Gem, played with it for a while, and tossed it into the trash can.

“It’s just junk. How could you fall for the trap?”

“Wencheng, you always say you are well-informed and can do anything in Stillwater. How can you believe such a trick?”

Su Wencheng gaped and asked, “Nan, do you mean the sign is fake?”

“Qin Tian isn’t the legendary Reaper, is he?”

“He’s Reaper? Bah!” Su Nan spat and squeezed a curse between her teeth, “Just a rogue!”

“You can find such signs in the black market. Ten for 100 yuan.”

“My hound suddenly died. How do you explain it?” Su Wencheng was still fearful.

His dog died too weirdly.

One mid-aged man walked up to Su Nan. He was her bodyguard hired by the Wu family, and his name was Dong Fang.

After checking the dog carefully, he said, “It was killed by a hidden energy.”

“If not mistaken, it had been kept in the dog for a while internally and broke up just now.”

Su Wencheng was shocked. “I’ve never offended any master that can do such a thing.”

Dong Fang smiled. “The person who did it is a master, but...”

He broke off and growled suddenly before hitting a stone.

It broke into pieces instantly.

Dong Fang continued with a triumphant smile, “If he dares to fight with me, he’ll become like the stone.”

All the Su family members were amazed and applauded. Dong Fang was an absolute master in their eyes.

Su Nan said complacently, “Rest assured, Wencheng. If that person dares to come here, I’ll ask Master Dong to deal with him.”

Su Beishan was still worried. “Nan, what should we do then?”

“After all, it’s Reaper’s Gem. Whether real or fake, we cannot ignore it.”

Su Nan sneered, “Even if it was real, so what?”

Su Beishan’s jaw went slack. “Do you mean you can deal with it even if it’s real?”

Upon hearing his guess, others focused on Su Nan.

Su Nan answered, “Well, everything has its remedy.”

“I cannot do anything to Reaper, but he has a powerful remedy. Do you know who it is?”

Only silence replied to her.

In the weird quietness, Su Wenbin suddenly recalled something and asked, “Su Nan, do you mean the owner of Primal Gem?”

‘Owner of Primal Gem? Prima?’

Others were enlightened.

Reaper’s Gem and Primal Gem were the most mysterious and powerful signs worldwide in recent years.

The former meant death and the latter meant fortune and luck.

Therefore, Primal Gem was the remedy for Reaper’s Gem.

Su Beishan asked in disbelief, “Primal seems to be more mysterious. Where can we find him?”

“We don’t need to look for him. According to a reliable source, he’s already in Stillwater but hasn’t shown up in public.”

Su Nan’s words raised an uproar.

None of them had heard that Primal was in Stillwater.

Su Wencheng asked in excitement, “Really, Nan? How did you know it?”

Su Nan proudly answered, “Of course, it’s real.”

“The Wu family had spent a lot of effort to get his whereabouts.”

“Besides that, I also know where to find Primal.”

“Tell us! Hurry!”

“If we can find Primal and ask him for help, any trouble will be resolved.” Su Beishan was overjoyed that his bears shook.

Dong Fang chimed in with a smile, “All bigwigs from the world are gathering in Stillwater. They want Primal to use Ghost Door Thirteen Needles to cure them.”

“According to the news, Primal has a connection with Wang Bonian from the National Academy of Medicine.”

“Think about it. Coincidentally, the National Academy of Medicine will open a branch in Stillwater, and Wang Bonian will attend it personally.”

“Everything is because of Primal.”

“If not mistaken, Primal is the most important person at the branch opening ceremony.”

“I agree,” Su Nan echoed, “If we can get the invitation, we’ll definitely meet Primal.”

“Primal is known as kind-hearted. If we tell him about Reaper’s Gem, he’ll never sit and watch it harm people without doing anything.”

Su Beishan burst into laughter triumphantly.

“Nan, you are indeed the lucky star of our family.”

He was relieved. Firstly, Qin Tian had probably used a fake sign to scare them.

In that case, they wouldn’t need to be worried.

However, if that sign was real and Qin Tian had something to do with Reaper or was Reaper himself, they wouldn’t need to be afraid, either.

Primal showed up, and Reaper would be gone.

Su Nan reminded them, “Qin Tian is so bold to make trouble. We can’t let go of him easily.”

“Mr. Dong, let’s go to the Tie Manor.”

“I must expose him.”

Su Yukun hurriedly stopped her, “Nan, calm down. Don’t be reckless.”

“We cannot afford to offend the Tie family.”

Su Nan chuckled, “I know, Dad. I’ll send people to have a look first.”
