Chapter 502 It’s for You
Xuan An didn’t expect that Su Li disliked his father and his people so much. Then he just gave a hollow laugh, “Senior Sister Apprentice, I just…”
“I know what you are thinking.”
Su Li smiled slightly, “It is only human nature. I don’t blame you. However, it fades into insignificant compared with the life. You are too impetuous.”
Xuan An understood Su Li’s meaning, and felt warm in his heart. The three communication opportunities were provided for him to save his life.
He scratched his head and smiled, “I see, Senior Sister Apprentice.”
After the two finished chatting, Su Li raised her head. With a mixed feeling, Xuan Jingzhou didn’t know what expression he should make.
The woman had deep hatred to sects and didn’t want to contact them too much, so Xuan Jingzhou immediately gave up to ask her background in a roundabout way, so as not to provoke her.
As an elder, Xuan Jingzhou could see that Su Li indeed cared about Xuan An. Although he didn’t know the reason, it was a good thing for Xuan An to be favored by such a strong person. If Xuan An could learn the skills of poisonous insect cultivation, he would be able to get better in the cultivation circle.
Since Xuan Jingzhou returned from the Reincarnation Mirror, he had not attached great importance to the differences among sects and among factions. On the surface, he was still the real Lord of Jiguang Sect who kept Jiguang Sect in his heart, and even delegated part of the responsibilities to Xuan An, while in his heart, he no longer stuck to the form.
If Xuan An stayed in the Jiguang Sect, his future would be limited. He expected that Xuan An could have a better future.
“Anyway, Your Excellency, you are a great help for my sect. I’d like to ask someone to prepare a quiet room for you to rest, if you don’t mind.”
He kept a very low profile and said gently.
Su Li nodded slightly. She still had a few battles next, and it would not be convenient to go back to the ordinary seat.
Seeing Su Li agreed, Xuan Jingzhou immediately started to make an arrangement. He was very thoughtful to order Xuan An to lead her there in person.
—
The quiet room was prepared by the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce, which was also on the third floor, not far from the venue.
After Xuan An led Su Li into the room, he left the room so as to not disturb her.
Snap!
Su Li locked the door gently, and watched the surrounding matrix and runes invade and cover the door frame. Then the cheers from the outside became much smaller immediately.
“Linli Building appeared in the Qingshui Circle…”
She turned around and sat on the futon, with her eyes gleaming with contemplation.
Judging from what Tang Li and that female pract.i.tioner said, she guessed that the Guling Gambling Battle was a trap set for Linli Building by holy sects.
It was mean to test.
With limited foundation, Xiejian School and other sects were inferior to holy sects. Therefore, it was understandable for them to invite casual pract.i.tioners to partic.i.p.ate in the Battle.
However, should those powerful forces with much inheritance, like Tianyin Tribe and Huangxing Hall, also invite casual pract.i.tioners to partic.i.p.ate in the Battle?
“It should not…”
With her eyes gleaming with a doubt, Su Li touched the Black Lotus Ring with her fingertip. The Flying Infant Corpse, in a trance of convalescence, presented in her hand.
“Master, all the ghost energy in the it has been extracted.”
The Black Lotus appeared and offered a black crystal with two hands, on which the ghost phantoms lingered, sometimes gathering into a skull, and sometimes dispersing.
Su Li took the crystal, and glanced at Black Lotus thoughtfully, “Well done. How come I don’t know that you have such an ability?”
Black Lotus didn’t consider it a compliment at all when he heard that, and he responded in shame, “I don’t have the ability to do that. It is that silly.”
“Oh?”
Su Li raised her eyebrows. Hearing that, the little beast in the Reincarnation Mirror felt nervous with its heart throbbing.
Su Li didn’t say anything and just put forth her strength. The black infant in the trance of convalescence ignited a ball of flame instantly, and then was burned to a cloud of fly ash in the fire.
“Master?!”
Black Lotus was stunned. Su Li definitely knew the function of the Flying Infant Corpse. In addition to its attacking power, this kind of top-grade corpse was also very suitable to collect ghost energy.
Su Li smiled faintly, “What I lack is not ghost energy, but spiritual jades.”
Black Lotus was stunned, and then smiled bitterly.
Yea. His current master was really an odd. She belonged to Human Clan with the body of an evil ghost, and what she practiced was not the ghost energy, but the supreme practice method of Human Clan.
Su Li threw the black crystal to the evil ghost for research. She hadn’t figured out the nature of the evil ghost, and also had no ghost energy in the pubic region. So, she didn’t know the use of ghost energy crystals within a short time.
If the evil ghost couldn’t study anything, it was better to give the crystal to Lv You directly to let him improve his cultivation.
Interrupted by Black Lotus, Su Li felt a little relaxed.
Perhaps it was the relaxation that inspired her. Su Li was stunned suddenly, and then she changed her mind.
Influenced by her previous life, she had always placed the holy sects in a very high position. In her mind, the holy sects were unattainable and unfathomable.
But during the trip to Han Sect, she did weaken the vitality of the Han Sect in a sudden with enough fortune.
Perhaps the holy sects were not as powerful as she thought.
Perhaps, she underestimated the ident.i.ty of the “daughter of luck”.
“In the four great holy sects, there is a wealth of outstanding personalities and sophisticated people. It’s impossible that they are completely controlled by a “Fate Ancestor”. They also have their own ideas, just like the Huangxing Hall…”
An inexplicably twinkle came into Su Li’s eyes.
“Not everyone is malicious towards the ‘daughter of luck’. I am too pessimistic. But I can’t relax my vigilance…”
“The Guling Gambling Battle is to test the true and false of Linli Building and to test my existence. But the partic.i.p.ants dispatched by all the sects are casual pract.i.tioners. If I show up to expose my strength of Junior Emperor or higher-grade strength like an ‘immortal’, those sects will have reasons to disa.s.sociate themselves from it and make those casual pract.i.tioners become scapegoats.”
“I have just been reborn for less than 20 years. Who created the Linli Building? How far has the force developed?”
“I only know Xuan Jingzhou now. Is he a member of the Linli Building?”
Su Li took a deep breath and restored calm.
Although her heart was filled with many questions, she pretended to be indifferent in the seat of the Jiguang Sect and did not contact with Xuan Jingzhou.
She knew about Xuan Jingzhou’s experience, while other holy sects knew better than her. Perhaps someone was investigating him. If she was not Su Li, she would have no worries certainly. But she had partic.i.p.ated in the Battle accidentally.
If she contacted with Xuan Jingzhou too much, she would be likely to expose herself, and then the layout of the Jiuzhou Region would be ruined overnight.
“I should not be impatient.”
Su Li squinted her clear and chilling eyes.
“Do you have a good rest, Fellow Pract.i.tioner Su? The fifth round is about to begin. Your opponent is Gui Buyin.”
Yin Jue’s voice came through the special sound transmission device in the quiet room. Su Li immediately got up and opened the door. Xuan An, who had waited at the door, walked over to her as soon as he saw her. He said quickly while he was walking,
“Be careful, Senior Sister Apprentice. The Gui Buyin’s method is very weird, and my father suspects that he has an extremely high-grade Poisonous Disturbing Mind Insect!”
Su Li nodded indifferently, and asked, “What was the result of the last round?”
It was obvious that Xuan An got some information from Xuan Jingzhou. He answered very smoothly, “Kang Chang won. But my father said that Kang Chang is no match for w.a.n.g Yi’an. w.a.n.g Yi’an didn’t show his strength completely, and just pretended to be defeated. He came out for experience, so he certainly wants to fight with more people.”
“Your father is right.”
Su Li agreed. Upon saying this, Su Li jumped a long distance in an instant and stepped on the arena.
Xuan An stopped with a smile appearing on his face.
It was a familiar feeling.
The strength of senior sister apprentice was unmatched. Even Gui Buyin, who killed Wu Yunzhao, also could not beat her!
“Su Jiuzhou is here!”
As soon as Su Li came on the arena, the audience all kept quiet. Whether the five major forces or ordinary pract.i.tioners, they all stared at the arena
intently, for fear of missing any details.
The two were not famous, and their methods were cruel and violent. Who would win in this round?
Gui Buyin squinted and showed a smile on his face. He didn’t rush to fight, but said with a hint of admiration, “Unexpectedly, there is such a beautiful and young poisonous insect pract.i.tioner in Jiuzhou Region. I wonder if I have the honor to see your beautiful face.”
As he spoke, Yi Wenying, who sat in the seat of the Tianyin Tribe, frowned and cursed inwardly. The task of finding casual pract.i.tioners for Guling Gambling Battle was delivered to him this time, so he, who was unvalued, made a decision to finish it successfully. It took him a lot of efforts to find Gui Buyin.
“What an old goat. I even gave him my favorite concubine, while he still tries to pick up the girl now!”
The pract.i.tioners in the venue also felt weird. It was improper for Gui Buyin to say that on this occasion.
Hearing that, Su Li chuckled behind her hand, and said with a soft tone, “No problem. But actually… I cover my face because of you.”
With his heart throbbing, Gui Buyin suddenly thought of something, and his face changed slightly.
The black veil was uncovered, and the face that Su Li showed in Jiuli Region, was shown to everyone.
Many pract.i.tioners were disappointed when they saw this ordinary face.
“It’s her!”
Yin Yutian stood up in surprise and regretted very much. Yin Jue noticed his abnormality, but he didn’t know why. Then Yin Yutian said with a wry smile, “Father, Su Jiuzhou is the honored guest whose celestial stones was stolen, while Gui Buyin…”
Before Yin Yutian didn’t finish his word, Yin Jue’s face changed.
He didn’t take the theft seriously before. However, he didn’t expect that the two persons were both big shots, and even became opponents with each other in the Guling Gambling Battle.
He couldn’t tell who was more powerful for a while.
“Who should I support?”
Looking at the two confronting with each other on the arena, Yin Jue got anxious.
The smile on Gui Buyin’s face had disappeared already, and he stared at Su Li viciously.
When he saw Su Li’s face, he just wanted to run away immediately. But when he thought of the Tianyin Tribe and the poisonous insect which was strengthened by running out the celestial stones during this period of time, he calmed down immediately, even with a little shame and anger.
His strength had reached a new level. He could try to fight even if Su Li had been in the peak of nature’s test. The higher level was Junior Emperor, while the woman facing him would was definitely not more than 500 years old.
It was absolutely impossible for a five-hundred-year-old person to reach the Junior Emperor!
“I will not be defeated!”
Thinking of this, he splayed fingers without saying a word. Then countless transparent insects flew toward Su Li’s head.
However, the insects stopped flying halfway, turned into a light at a higher rate of speed, and shot at his head! He looked at this scene in panic.
In a flurry, Gui Buyin rolled on the ground in embarra.s.sment to avoid those transparent insects, while he was flurried in his heart.
Why would his Poisonous Disturbing Mind Insect attack its master?
Who…who…who was the opponent he was facing on earth?!
“Are these little things that you rely on…”
Su Li walked over with a faint smile. The electric lights gleamed in her hands, “d.a.m.n it, all my celestial stones were wasted on these trashy insects by you…”
