Lady Su’s Revenge

Su Li was slightly startled. Thinking a lot in her mind, she responded with a chuckle,

“Silly brother, wouldn’t you be the Young Lord and also go to the Jiuzhou Region?”

“As the Young Lord of Linli Building, you will not lack resources. If they let you stay in Juecheng City, why don’t you run away? Then you not only get resources for practice, but also can realize your dreams. Isn’t it the best of both worlds?”

Su Buwang was stunned. He had never thought that there was such a choice.

Then he started thinking about it, “Although what Sister Qingshui said…is very unusual, there seems to be a lot of room for manipulation after careful consideration.”

Su Li didn’t speak any more. Holding a wine cup and savoring the wine carefully, she rested her eyes on Su Buwang all the time and couldn’t get enough of him.

After a whole day, the banquet came to the end.

“Fellow Practitioner Qing, I will definitely give an account of the thing related to Shan Zhonghe today. Farewell.”

Qiu Ruhai gave a fist and palm salute, which was replied by Su Qingtan with a smile.

This showed the confidence of being the biggest force in Juecheng City. Regardless of the specific cause, Su Qingtan only needed to tell Qiu Ruhai that the source of the trouble was someone from Lieyang Villa.

After the owners of Lieyang Villa and of Sanghun Building bade farewell respectively, almost all the practitioners outside left. There were only some menservants from Linli Building cleaning up the messy situation.

Fang Yuan turned his head and fixed his eyes on Su Li, who was still sitting next to Su Buwang.

Sensing his gaze, Su Li tilted her head and smiled, “Fellow Practitioner Fang, please lead the way.”

After a while, Su Li pushed open the door on the top floor of Linli Building and walked in. Then Su Bu Wang, Fang Yuan, Ling Mo and Su Qingtan followed her and entered.

“It seems that no one has been in this room for a long time… although it’s cleaned up.”

Su Li swiped her fingertips across the end table and rubbed her fingers, finding there was no dust.

Observing Su Li’s behavior secretly, Fang Yuan said in a seemingly calm voice, “This room is specially prepared for distinguished guests. Since very few distinguished guests have come to Linli Building, it is naturally used less.”

Startled for a while, Su Li couldn’t help laughing, “What kind of distinguished guest am I? Fellow Practitioner Fang, you are so polite.”

She glanced at the rest of the people and then added, “Not only Fellow Practitioner Fang but also all of you are very warmhearted. It really makes me feel extremely flattered that so many people come here for me.”

Hearing this, Su Qingtan laughed and said, “We are just curious. Fang Yuan has never been so close to women, but he treats you quite differently. So, we wonder what kind of person you are.”

“Then perhaps you will be disappointed because I am just an ordinary person. I am just a casual practitioner and has never worked for any forces.”

Su Li answered lightly, which made Fang Yuan frown.

He knew the strength of this woman, and it was unbelievable that she was a casual practitioner.

Not long after, everyone was seated at the same time, and Fang Yuan intentionally vacated Su Li’s favorite seat. Without looking at that empty seat, Su Li sat in the guest seat next to Fang Yuan.

After the maid served the spiritual tea, the room was silent for a while. Then Fang Yuan suddenly broke the silence.

“It was you who killed the Blood Mist Person in the Blood World?”

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

Su Li smiled and looked at Fang Yuan’s eyes which were filled with complex feelings. She said, “What if it’s me? And if it’s not me… so what?”

Fang Yuan held his breath, subconsciously recalling the shouting of the Blood Mist Person when he was groggy.

The daughter of luck…

He looked so struggled. There was only one daughter of luck in the world. Once the latter was born, the former must have been dead!

“What on earth…is it you?”

Although the answer was only different with one word, it was related to the last hope in his heart.

After a stifling moment, Fang Yuan relaxed his body and said in a low voice, “If it’s you, we will try our best to satisfy your needs in the Juecheng City in return for your great kindness. If not, that means I have thought too much, and we won’t embarrass you. I just want you…to give me an answer.”

Hearing this, people in the room fell into silence again.

Su Li picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, slowly glancing over the crowd on site.

It seemed that Ling Mo, Eldest Brother, Fourth Brother, Yun Yi and other guards of Yunge Sect, plus Fang Yuan, were all the top men of Linli Building. Su Li had already known a lot of secrets from Su Buwang, but who was the mysterious person that encouraged Ling Mo to reestablish Linli Building?

However, this question could not come from her mouth. Asking with the same purpose as Fang Yuan would inevitably make everyone doubt her identity.

Fortunately, there was no risk of exposure if she asked other questions.

“I heard that Lord Luo is in Linli Building, but why have I never seen him?”

Instead of giving an answer, Su Li posed another question.

“Luo?”

Fang Yuan was puzzled, moving his eyes to Ling Mo.

Ling Mo admitted, “There is indeed a person named Luo in Linli Building, but how did you know as you have just arrived?”

“I have just inquired about it randomly. The name of the top men in Linli Building is not a secret, is it?”

“No, you are right…”

Su Qingtan stopped Ling Mo who frowned, and said in a calm tone, “Luo is just an honorary protector of Linli Building. He left after being seriously injured in the Blood World. And we don’t know his specific whereabouts.”

Su Li raised her eyebrows slightly, “Oh, I see.”

It was no wonder that she didn’t see the person in the decisive battle in the Blood World before. Was it Luo Yichen who had left with Mei Ruohan?

“As for what Miss Qingshui wants to know, I have already told the truth sincerely.”

Su Qingtan continued, with a vague sense of coercing in his eyes, “What about your answer?”

“You want my answer?”

Su Li smiled, “It’s very simple. I want a position of honorary protector, just like Luo. Then I will tell you what you want to know.”

Hearing this, Fang Yuan looked at Su Li, and was slightly startled.

He had never thought that what this woman had said in the inn before turned out to be true. She really wanted to join Linli Building.

“Sister, will you also join Linli Building? Great!”

Su Buwang’s eyes suddenly brightened. Seeing that Ling Mo and the others were still hesitating, he pretended to be angry and said, “Don’t you want me to be the Young Lord? If Sister joins us, I will agree. And if not, I will not be the Young Lord!”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone couldn’t help being silent.

Even Fang Yuan was a little jealous in his heart. He wondered when Su Buwang became so close to Qingshui.

“It is not difficult.”

After a moment of silence, Ling Mo said respectfully, “Willing to take action to destroy the Blood World, you have come with kindness and have done a great favor to us. From today on, you are the second honorary protector of Linli Building, with the same status as us. And you have the right to leave or stay here. Do you agree?”

Su Qingtan pondered for a moment. Then he looked up and said, “I have no objection.”

Su Qinghao said with a smile, “I agree with Eldest Brother.”

Yun Yi scratched his head, “It is up to you.”

Fang Yuan nodded. Looking back to Su Li, he asked, “Are you satisfied?”

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

“Ha-ha…”

Su Li chuckled and took off the black veil, revealing her beautiful face. Then she stood up and bowed lightly.

“Fellow practitioners, I am Qingshui. Nice to meet you.”

Seeing Su Li’s face, Fang Yuan and the others were very surprised.

She was too young!

She was definitely younger than Buwang, but she had a cultivation base stronger than him, which was extremely unreasonable.

“As for what Fellow Practitioner Fang wants to ask…”

Su Li turned her hands and the Nixue Bead appeared in her palm, with a faint bloody luster.

Su Buwang subconsciously grabbed his chest and was a little confused, “This thing…”

Fang Yuan and Ling Mo were shocked when they saw it, because it was the bloody light embedded in Su Buwang’s chest!

“It was because of this thing that you were defeated.”

Although Su Li didn’t say it directly, it was obviously tacit acquiescence when she took out this thing.

“For Brother Buwang, I took away this object and did some investigations. This object is called Nixue Bead. Fellow Practitioner Fang, do you have any impression?”

Fang Yuan felt a little bitter, and after being silent for a while, he barely remained calm. After thinking for a moment, he said, “There have been scattered records in the sect classics. This is a treasure from the ancient age, but…”

“That’s true.”

With a light smile, Su Li looked at Fang Yuan and said, “Fellow Practitioner Fang is really from a famous family. You can even recognize this treasure with such a long history. In the ancient age, the Nixue Bead was the most precious treasure of the evil circle and has been destroyed a long time ago. This is just an imitation.”

Others were very confused. Even Ling Mo had never heard of the Nixue Bead, so he could only listen quietly.

Fang Yuan shook his head slightly and said earnestly, “Compared with… Fellow Practitioner Qingshui, I am far behind. Just in terms of finding out the name of this thing in a short time, no one on site can do it except you.”

Su Li chuckled, “It’s just luck.”

“Since it is the treasure of the evil circle,”

Su Buwang couldn’t help interjecting, “Why is it here? Ever since I was a child, I have never taken anything from Shengtian Shrine apart from this.”

As he said, he rolled up his sleeves, and a pattern appeared.

“This is…Yang jade-bone mask?”

Ling Mo suddenly appeared in front of Su Buwang, and his expression was a little excited obviously.

Su Buwang looked at Ling Mo in astonishment. In his impression, Ling Mo was always wearing a cold face, whose temperament was even colder than that of Uncle Fang. How could he become so excited when he saw the mask?

“This was given to me by the nanny who took care of me since I was a child. After she died, I kept it to memorize her.”

Su Buwang explained. Ling Mo couldn’t help laughing happily after hearing his words.

“I knew it!”

He thought, “You in the Reincarnation Mirror were the real you. Everything you did at that time was a smokescreen, wasn’t it?”

The nanny’s legacy was only an excuse that Ling Li had deliberately made. Killing his son with his own hands, deceiving everyone, and even letting Buwang hate him… Why did he act like this?

“What are you afraid of… Ling Li!” He thought.

As Ling Mo was thinking, Su Buwang put down his sleeves carefully. He really didn’t understand.

Although the memory in the blood stone had a roughly completed framework, many details were missing, in which the Yin and Yang jade-bone masks had not been mentioned. Therefore, he couldn’t understand what Yang jade-bone mask meant.

The appearance of Yang jade-bone mask and Su Buwang’s words… Such a huge flaw caused everyone to fall into silence.

So… was he the one that had set up Linli Building?

Resting her chin on her hand, Su Li looked at the silent people thoughtfully, but her eyes were extremely cold.

Anyway, Buwang’s suffering over the years was because of him. As for the secrets of Shengtian Shrine, she would investigate, and those culprits…would not have the opportunity to flee!
