Lady Su’s Revenge

Chapter 133 - Arrangement

Hearing the sound, Su Li turned back and glanced at Luo Yichen. She gently wiped the blood on the two daggers with the upper clothes of the old man in a grey robe. Then, she regained them.

Luo Yichen put down Wu Yun and went to the side of Su Li to look at the old man. But because of the limitations of his knowledge, he did not see any difference.

“When you came over, did you see other people?”

After handling the corpse of the old man, Su Li turned back her head and asked.

When Luo Yichen saw that Su Li was skillful in handling the corpse and said with a calm tone, he was a little stunned. He shook his head and said “Nobody.”

It could be seen that Su Li understood something and was lost in thought.

She thought that Wu Yun was the initiator of stealing official silver in the Qinghe Town. Now when she saw the old man in a grey robe, she realized that it was not as simple as she had thought. It was very likely that Wu Yun was just a puppet and the Blood Refining Hall was the real evil backstage manipulator.

“We are in trouble.”

Su Li twisted her glabella. It was so early for her to fight against the forces of the martial arts circle. She was absolutely unwilling to see the circumstance. The Linli Building just started to run. It was like a baby who just learnt to crawl in front of the Lianshi Cult. It didn’t have any ability to fight against others.

Thinking of these, Su Li got up and walked to the log cabin. Although the old man in a grey robe set up some mechanisms, it was easy for Su Li, who was experienced in deal with them. After she carefully searched the log cabin, except some confidential letters of the old man in a gray robe and Wu Yun, she didn’t find any clue.

Soon, the log cabin was ablaze.

Su Li held the torch and her eyes were glistening. It was uncertain what she was thinking. Luo Yichen clamped Wu Yun under his arm and stood on one side. He tried to urge Su Li several times, but he swallowed it.

Seeing the fire, Yan Shixun and others might come soon. It was not difficult for Su Li, who was intelligent, to realize it. If they didn’t leave now, it would be late!

When she was thinking, suddenly there was a burst of rustling in the forest. Two young figures came out. They were Qu Qingning and Fang Yuan. Seeing that Su Li and Luo Yichen were all right and Wu Yun was caught, they suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

“Were the marks along the way destroyed?”

Su Li immediately asked aloud. Then Qu Qingning smiled and said, “Of course. We are vigilant.”

Luo Yichen suddenly felt ashamed in heart with a red face. In view of his class origin, he could not be as careful as Fang Yuan and Qu Qingning. He had never thought of the problem of marks along the road.

“Fang Yuan, carry Wu Yun and leave secretly with Qu Qingning. Don’t alarm Yan Shixun.”

Su Li said indifferently but urgently. She pointed to another path in which a horse couldn’t walk to indicate that they should quickly leave. Then she picked up the claw blades that had not been melted on the ground and cut her left arm hard!

“Slash!”

A bloody wound appeared in the outside of the left arm from the wrist to the shoulder. It was deep and long!

The bleeding sound made the three young men’s tips of the brow throb. They were nervous. Even if she pretended to be injured, there was no need for her to cut so deeply. She was almost peeled!

The severe pain stimulated Su Li. She slightly frowned. When she saw that they did not leave, she immediately raised her eyebrows and said with anger, “What are you doing? Go!”

Fang Yuan immediately woke up. He took over Wu Yun from Luo Yichen and disappeared into the path with Qu Qingning. When he left from Luo Yichen’s side, his lips moved. But no sound came out.

“Take care of her.”

After Luo Yichen suddenly heard the voice of Fang Yuan transmitted in silence, he was stunned inside and immediately laughed. It turned out that this dork actually fell in love with Su Li.

“Luo Yichen, carry me on your back to see Yan Shixun later and say…”

Su Li threw the claw blades into the sea of fire and warned him again. Luo Yichen saw her swallow some white powder and fall in his arms in astonishment.

“No wonder you asked me to carry you on my back…”

Luo Yichen felt strange just now. He only needed to support her considering her wound in the left hand. How could she be so delicate that she asked him to carry her on his back? It turned that she was ready to swallow the Bone Softening Powder .

Such a large amount of Bone Softening Powder was enough for ordinary people to sleep for one day and night. Even inborn seniors would be weak for a moment. She wasn’t afraid that he would harm her, was she?

Taking a deep breath, Luo Yichen did not forget to simply bandage Su Li’s wound in her arm. Then he carried Su Li on his back and went back. He whispered along the way, “The situation is urgent. I don’t betray Ruohan…

Su Li powerlessly lowered her head and smiled. The purpose of her arrangement was to create the illusion that the death of the elder of the Lianshi Cult had nothing to do with the Qinghe Town. But it was also an opportunity to sound out Luo Yichen.

Fortunately, Luo Yichen did not let her down.

Luo Yichen carried Su Li on his back for a while and finally saw that the picked troops looked for them in the mountains. He took the initiative to appear and immediately shouted,

“Lord, come here. I found Miss Su!”

The speed of communication was very fast. Less than two and a half minutes, Yan Shixun came to Luo Yichen. When he saw the blood on both of them, he immediately changed his expression and approached Su Li to check her breath. When he knew that she was still alive, he was relieved and quickly said,

“Protector Chen, thanks for your help. The situation is urgent. Send Su Li quickly to heal the wounds. Let’s talk about other things later!”

Luo Yichen nodded and said, “Definitely.”

After a busy night, in the Satrap’s Mansion,

an old doctor smoothed his beard and said with a smile, “The injury of Workshop Owner Su is less serious than last time. She just lost excessive blood. Also, a large dose of overpowering drug was working in her body. So, she will not wake up in a short time. However, these are easy. I will make a prescription to help Workshop Owner Su recover.”

Yan Shixun was happy and said with a fist and palm salute, “Thank you for your hard work. Please come here!”

Yan Shixun saw the doctor leave. When Yan Hongxiu looked at Su Li whose eyes were closed and face was pale, her eyes became red. Last time, Su Li was injured because of the Jin Family. This time she was badly cut in an obvious position to help them again. . .It would be bad if a scar was left.

After Yan Shixun sent the doctor away, his smile disappeared. He recovered the serious expression and came to the front hall. Luo Yichen had been waiting for a long time. He immediately got up and pretended to ask, “Is that miss all right?”

Yan Shixun smiled with bitterness and said, “Protector Chen is as kind as Ms. Li. The miss is fine. Sorry for waiting a long time. Can you tell me what happened last night now?”

Luo Yichen could not help but feel strange when he was praised for his kindness. But on the surface, he still said in a serious manner according to Su Li’s instructions, “Last night, I noticed that something was unusual. So, I tried my best to chase, but it was still late…”

The more Yan Shixun heard, the more he was confused. According to Luo Yichen, Su Li became a lamb who was at the mercy of others. It was uncertain what medicine was fed to her. She became weak. Also, she was slowly cut with claw blades from the arm by a man in the black robe. Luo Yichen immediately stopped him, but he failed to arrest the man in the black robe. Considering Su Li’s injury, he returned directly.

It could be said that Luo Yichen did not find any clue for the case except that he saved Su Li.

Yan Shixun did not doubt that Luo Yichen lied to him because there was no need for the Linli Building to conceal any news. The Yan Family and Linli Building had shared interests.

“Let it go. It is a great fortune that Workshop Owner Su is still alive.” Yan Shixun said with a wry smile, “The Gong Family… deserves to be called an aristocratic family in Yunjing. I willingly acknowledge my defeat.”

“Don’t improperly belittle yourself.”

Luo Yichen blinked and said with a low voice, “Although I couldn’t see the origin of the man in black who escaped according to my experience, I guess that they come from the martial arts circle, and they were not the servants of Madam Wu Yun. My master will tell you about the details after she deeply thinks about them.”

Yan Shixun’s look changed dramatically and he was stunned, “The force of the martial arts circle?! How could it possible that our Yan Family has relationship with it?”

Luo Yichen did not say anything. He got up and gave a fist and palm salute. He said, “I said what I should say. If you want to know more, you can come to the Linli Building with Miss Su after she wakes up. At that time, my master may provide a lot of information by inference.”

Yan Shixun came to his sense and quickly got up to thank him, “Protector Chen, thank you this time. I must visit you in the Linli Building after Su Li wakes up!”

After a night, Su Li slowly opened her eyes. Many people who cared about her safety were relieved.

Yan Shixun came here hurriedly with a little guilt and hesitation. He wanted to take Su Li to the Linli Building immediately. But when he saw that her left arm was tightly wrapped with gauze, he couldn’t speak.

Su Li smiled weakly and gently said, “Satrap Yan, speak plainly. I was shocked this time but it was not serious. Hongxiu told me that the case about the official silver has not been solved. If I can help you, please don’t hesitate to ask.”

Yan Shixun thought about it and turned his head to stare at Hongxiu. Yan Hongxiu was standing by the bed. She lowered her head with grievances. Because Su Li asked her about it, she must tell her. The case couldn’t be concealed for a long time.

Seeing Su Li looking at her pleadingly, Yan Shixun sighed, “Su Li, I am sorry for you and your Su Family. You just waked up, but I have to take you to another place.” “

After ten minutes, Su Li stood in front of the Linli Building with her left arm bandaged. She felt it was interesting. She came here for the first time as Su Li.

Yin Xuetong had been waiting for a long time in front of the door. When she saw Yan Shixun and Su Li, she immediately moved closer and slightly stooped. She said, “My master has been waiting on the top floor for a long time.”

Then Yin Xuetong stretched out her hand to lead the way.

Yan Shixun said “Thank you” and then pulled Su Li to go upstairs. When they came to the attic of the top floor, Yan Shixun found that a thick gauze curtain was placed in the space in front of the desk. The scene behind the curtain was faintly visible. A girl sat inside, and two expressionless young men stood on both sides of the curtain. The two men seemed to say that strangers couldn’t come in.

“Lord Yan, my practice of martial arts is very crucial these days. It is inappropriate for me to see someone and affect my state of mind. If Protector Chen hadn’t told me your visit, I would not have reluctantly come out. Let’s talk in this way today.”

The familiar voice came out from the gauze curtain. Yan Shixun was reassured. It was a taboo to ask others the practice of martial arts. So, he directly skipped it. Then he said with a fist and palm salute, “We will obey your requirements. We want to know your thoughts on what Protector Chen said last night.”

“Giggle… Originally, I just have a guess, but when I saw the girl’s face, I definitely knew who did it.”

Inside the gauze curtain, the girl smiled gently. But Yan Shixun became nervous and asked calmly, “Who? Please tell us clearly!”

“This girl is pale. It seems that she lost excessive blood. But if you look at her carefully, you can see that her glabella is blue and the hair on the temples is red. She was forced to have Bone Softening Powder. Bone Softening Powder is not a general overpowering drug. It has an effect on seniors in the inborn realm. The powder is expensive. Few cults would force the girl to have the powder regardless of its amount.”

As the girl behind the gauze curtain analyzed, the truth seemed to become clearer. . However, Yan Shixun was paler and paler. He looked relaxed at the same time.

“Satrap Yan, is the wound in the left arm of the little girl extremely deep and long? Is it quite flat vertically?”

Yan Shixun instantly nodded and said, “What Ms. Li said is extremely accurate. It seems that you have seen it.”

Qu Qingning, who disguised himself and stood behind the gauze curtain, couldn’t help but secretly curl his lips. She not only saw it, but also made it by herself.

“That’s right. The Lianshi Cult often uses the Bone Softening Powder to palsy the body and then peel off the skin to make a puppet. The members of the Lianshi Cult might like the skin of the girl. They wanted to make a puppet to enjoy…”

The girl behind the gauze curtain said calmly but all the people felt scared. Lianshi Cult was not a noble and decent cult as its name suggested.

“Lianshi Cult…”

Yan Shixun was pale and finally sighed. He got up with a fist and palm salute. He said, “Wu Yun disappeared and the case of official silver is difficult to be investigated. Please give directions on how to deal with them.”

“Ha-ha…”

There was a chuckle from the gauze curtain, “Why do you ask me the question that you know? They are beyond your ability. This little girl can be your witness. It is easy for you to get away.”
