Lady Su’s Revenge

Chapter 287 Reasons

“Is it possible that he secretly has other helpers as powerful as you to bring him over? How can his body bear it?”

Ling Ping asked with a frown, but Ling Mo was completely devoted to healing, without any response. Reluctantly, he could only suppress his cluttered mind for a while, waited for Ling Mo to stabilize his injury, and then planned.

…

Just two days after Ling Li entered the withered wood, Su Li finally reached the frontier. Because it was such a long journey and Ling Li had already rushed to the rescue first, of course, she would not be extravagant enough to rush with the foundation.

All the way, instead of walking, she rode a spirit horse sent by the Spiritual Realm. Although it looked little different from an ordinary swift horse, its speed was three times faster than the latter. So, she could reach the frontier in just a few days.

The persons of Spiritual Realm spread all over the neverland. As soon as Su Li arrived, someone appeared to take the horse away to feed it. At the same time, a middle-aged executive wearing Spiritual Realm’s iconic clothing stepped forward respectfully.

“Lady Su. I am your subordinate, Qing Sen.”

Su Li’s face was very young and even childish, and Qing Sen was old enough to be her uncle. However, the age obviously did not affect his respect for Su Li.

He remembered Great Head’s strict entrustment and dared not neglect at all! This was a character whose status was equivalent to a Great Master. If he did not serve well, the end would be absolutely miserable!

“How is the situation in the frontier and where is Ling Ping now?”

Su Li asked frankly. Qing Sen was fearful, and immediately replied, “Lady Su! I started investigating immediately as soon as the order was passed to me.”

“Half a month ago, General Ling Ping was in the ambush of the Hehuan Sect. After a war, he was forced into the depths of the withered wood. I have marked out places where he may hide and have sent people to verify the places. However, the Hehuan Sect and the royal family of Nanjiang Country seem to be strenuous to kill Ling Ping. Most of the warriors the inborn realm spreading in the withered wood are sent by them, but the number of my subordinates…”

Speaking of this, Qing Sen was ashamed.

Su Li had reached the longevity realm, so, she knew that Qing Sen didn’t lie under the sensation between heaven and man. She immediately said, “The two factions are united and here is just a branch of the Spiritual Realm. It is reasonable that you are defeated. No need to send a lot of manpower in the withered wood any more, and I will take a personal trip to solve the problem. The next thing you need to do is to find out the relationship between the royal family of Nanjiang Country and the Hehuan Sect.”

What was it that led to the union of the two?

If she didn’t figure it out, she would be upset.

“I will do it right now!”

Qing Sen worshiped, and immediately led someone to execute the order. The persons of the Spiritual Realm had been all over the neverland. What kind of news could not be obtained? The only thing that could be called a variable was the length of time.

After Qing Sen left, no one else could be seen outside the withered wood for the time being. Su Li rolled up the map in her hands, and glanced across the withered wood. She evoked the mask in her body and felt the existence of the Yang jade-bone mask, so, she chased immediately.

After half a day of running, Ling Li finally appeared in Su Li’s psychic awareness. She secretly took a breath. Fortunately, Ling Li kept wearing the mask on his face. If it was in his body, she would not be able to feel it.

Ling Li, who was walking in the wood, stopped with a cautious expression. Although the glance just came fast and went fast, it did not prevent him from detecting its existence.

“Do seniors of the Hehuan Sect have arrived so soon?” Ling Li frowned slightly, “But I haven’t found my Second Brother yet…”

In the past two days, he had encountered no less than four attacks of warriors of the Hehuan Sect and Nanjiang Country. Although he killed them as soon as he met them, and the delay was not more than three minutes, it was difficult to guarantee that the news had not been leaked.

The name “Childe Li” was full of deterrent, but there were so many enemies, especially here was very close to the site of the Lianshi Cult…

At this time—

“Whooshing!”

A very slight sound through air sounded from behind. Ling Li closed his eyes, immediately turned and grabbed the “hidden weapon”, and the body swept away in the direction of the hidden weapon without a pause, but he did not see anyone.

“It must be a senior above the longevity realm who has the strong ability to hide breath!”

Ling Li had known the strength of the person and felt a little helpless. He just broke through the longevity realm. He might be able to fight against others, but his bodily movement of practicing martial arts still stayed on the inborn realm.

“What is this?”

Losing the trace of the enemy, Ling Li had to turn his attention to the hidden weapon in his hand. It turned out that the “hidden weapon” was not a hidden weapon at all, but a map made of a very tough skin of a wild animal.

“What’s painted on this… is the withered wood!”

Ling Li was startled. The withered wood covered tens of thousands of miles. It was surprised that the person was so powerful to draw such a detailed map, which proved that the person definitely had great strength!

“Instead of being an enemy, that person just wants to give me a map.”

Having figured this out, Ling Li opened the map and watched it carefully, finally finding the several marked places.

“Are you helping me or… making a trap?”

Ling Li frowned tightly. A mysterious person of the longevity realm suddenly appeared, gave him a map and left without saying a word. This matter was strange in all aspects.

“Well, I’ll go to the closest place first.”

Ling Li gritted his teeth and left. Now he didn’t know whether his Second Brother was alive or not, and the situation was so critical that he could not delay any more.

…

However, after Su Li gave the map to Ling Li, she returned to the Spiritual Realm and soon took the spiritual horse to set out again. This time, she was going to… Nanjiang Country!

This trip was her decision after careful consideration. The incident of Ling Ping happened suddenly, and she just happened to be there.

Therefore, she chose to not show up and let Ling Li solve it by himself. Qing Sen had investigated clearly that there were no seniors of the longevity realm in the frontier, so, Ling Li was safe for sure.

Su Li’s dress had been changed to the style of Nanjiang Country. With the help of people of the Spiritual Realm, she had no difficulty entering the territory of Nanjiang Country two days later.

Su Li’s identity in the Spiritual Realm was known by only several people, among whom there was Xuan He, the Head of the branch of the Spiritual Realm in Nanjiang Country. Six days later, as soon as she set foot on the land of the capital of Nanjiang Country, Xuan He immediately brought people to pick her up.

When Su Li was placed in a luxurious courtyard, Xuan He stayed alone with Su Li, and immediately he knelt down and worshipped, “Highly Great Master, it’s my honor to meet you here!”

Su Li responded faintly and said lightly, “No need to worship. Presumably Qing Sen has told you what to do. How is this matter going on?”

Xuan He stood up and immediately replied, “Nanjiang Country and the Hehuan Sect have been indeed colluded, but their original purpose was to deal with the Lianshi Cult, not Ling Ping!”

Su Li frowned slightly, “What do you mean? Tell me more.”

“Speaking of this, it is related to the auction held last year in Yunjing, the capital of Dahan Country.”

Xuan He apparently made full investigation in the past two days, and the reasons almost came out. “At that time, there must be someone who manipulated in Yunjing City, and almost all outside forces that went to the auction in Yunjing City were severely hit. I thought it was Dongfang Family’s manipulation, but later I discovered that it was not…”

“Well, not this part. Get to the point.”

Su Li interrupted mercilessly. She was the initiator of the big cleansing. Is it necessary to talk more to her?

A hint of embarrassment flashed on Xuan He’s face and he continued,

“Just half a month ago, there was a piece of astonishing news from the Lianshi Cult. The daughter of the master of the Lianshi Cult had accomplished the practice of the Heartless Skill, and almost perfectly inherited the best martial art of the Lianshi Cult with amazing combat capability. She could fight with the seniors of the longevity realm by the peak of the inborn realm without losing!”

The inborn realm really could fight with the longevity realm without losing?!

Su Li behaved calmly, but she couldn’t help being scared inside. Even if she was powerful, she didn’t have such a high-level combat capability which could cross the level, otherwise she wouldn’t be pushed into despair by an elder of the Yinmo Cult in the rainy day.

However, when hearing this, Su Li had faintly understood that the Lianshi Cult bought the Full Moon and Heart Strings in the auction for this talented girl.

It was a pity… that the Full Moon and Heart Strings had been replaced by her. If nothing unexpected happened—

At this time, Xuan He sighed, “Unexpectedly, the young master was so anxious to practice the Full Moon and Heart Strings that she exploded and died directly.”

Su Li squinted her eyes, never saying a word.

When Xuan He saw she had little reaction, he immediately had no thought to seek her mood fluctuation, and continued honestly,

“The master of the Lianshi Cult is old, and there are no other outstanding young persons in this Cult. Now the violent death of the young master is to burn the Cult’s bridge, so, the master made a dangerous move and attacked directly Nanjiang Country!”

Su Li nodded gently. There was no room for two tigers in one mountain. The battle between the royal family of Nanjiang Country, Wei Family, and the Lianshi Cult was like that between the royal family of Dahan Country, Dongfang Family, and the Yinmo Cult. Among them, the winner must control the country.

“The Wei Family had originally launched civil strife and was on the throne for few years, so, the family strength has not been fully restored. If they would fight against the Lianshi Cult at this time, their strength would be further shortened!”

“So, they chose to cooperate with the Hehuan Sect?”

Su Li took the conversation and slowly spoke. Xuan He couldn’t help but nod, “That’s it! But the master of the Lianshi Cult is not a fool. When he realized that the Wei Family had invited an ally, although he hated the family, he could only choose to yield.”

Speaking of this, Xuan He smiled bitterly, “The master can be regarded as being courageous. He directly abandoned the home of his sect and hid in the mystery and forbidden land. The forbidden land is not very dangerous, but even if a martial arts practitioner of the longevity realm enters, he will lose his way, and even cannot come out in a lifetime! How can the Wei Family and the Hehuan Sect follow the crazy master. Of course, it is impossible for them to bring people in to kill him.”

Hearing this, Su Li had fully understood that Ling Ping had suffered innocently.

The two teamed up for a try, but they lost their target directly. They had to find another opponent and killed him vigorously to stabilize the form of cooperation.

At this time, Ling Ping, the Marshal of Dahan Country, happened to be in the frontier of Nanjiang Country. It could be said that he was the best one they could attack at the time!

“Does Nanjiang Country want to attack Dahan Country?”

Su Li considered in silence, with coldness showing in her eyes from time to time.

If the war did not involve the Ling Family, she would not handle it. But since they wanted to attack the Ling Family, the plan… could be carried out without any hesitation!
