If it were anyone else, the Su Clan would never have handed them over, as the prestige of the clan is paramount.
However, against someone who could defeat Su Gen with a single move, the five clan elders were genuinely terrified. When forced to choose between prestige and survival, they would choose survival without a moment's hesitation, casting prestige aside. They could not afford to lose a Fate Realm martial artist for the sake of a single clan member—for even for the Su Clan, a Fate Realm expert was a loss they could not bear, not even one. They could not afford the loss, nor could they afford to lose the gamble.
Su Gen’s expression was grim. He understood what the five elders were implying, and he truly wanted to hand over Su Hao, but he dared not. After all, the Ancestor had personally ordered that Su Hao be protected and even instructed him to use every resource to cultivate the young man. He was certain that if he handed Su Hao over, the Ancestor would surely kill him. Though he was the Clan Head, in the eyes of the Ancestor, he was worth nothing more than a fart.
