Chapter 560 Grievance
In the ruins of the spiritual boat, Jiang Run coughed up blood constantly, and braced himself painfully to see the battle on the deck. Then he looked at his companions who came out with him. At this moment, he still couldn’t calm down, and take his defeat lying down.
How could they die here before arriving at Shengxian Mountain?!
He carefully searched among everyone in the field once again. After making sure that there wasn’t that figure, he was suddenly startled. Could it be that…Lord Qingshui was one of Xueyin Bandits?!
Otherwise, how to explain that Xueyin Bandits intercepted and wanted to kill them halfway, but she did not appear?!
The more Jiang Run thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. The anger in his heart gushed out uncontrollably, and he growled, “Qingshui!”
“Silly boy, what are you thinking about?”
Suddenly, he heard a familiar and gentle voice. Su Li’s figure gradually became clear.
The expression of anger suddenly froze on Jiang Run’s face. Before saying something, he saw Su Li shaking her head and sighing, “Refining really holds things up. Such a big movement…”
Before she ended her speech, Jiang Run saw that the shadow around him suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of the Envoy with Xuemo Flute in the blink of an eye.
“Who is there?!”
The Envoy with Xuemo Flute didn’t even see the figure, feeling very nervous. When he was about to make a move, he couldn’t feel the Xuemo Flute in his hand, and it appeared in Su Li’s hand.
“Evil pract.i.tioner?”
Su Li stroked the black flute with her fingertips and coated it with a layer of silver light. She squinted and then threw the flute away. It turned into silver light and burst in the sky immediately, piercing the heart of the burly man at a speed that the naked eyes could hardly distinguis.h.!.+
As blood was spilling over, the burly man clutched his chest and turned his head to see the women appeared beside his boss with a look of horror.
He had used his unique skill. How could he be defeated?
“Dare to destroy my flute… You are courting death!”
The Envoy with Xuemo Flute made a hideous sound, and his five fingers formed into claws. The evil energy skyrocketed, and he attacked in the direction of Su Li’s head, “Just use your skull to re-refine my treasured flute!”
Su Li’s head tilted slightly. She dodged him easily. Then her slender and white fingers directly grabbed his hand, and pressed hard—
A series of “cracks” sounded. She directly crushed the palm of the Envoy with Xuemo Flute.
“Just you dare to covet my life?”
Su Li smiled teasingly. The Envoy with Xuemo Flute was terrified and screamed in disbelief, “How could it be possible?! The evil energy couldn’t hurt you…”
Puff!
A skull was highly cast away, with blood spraying far.
Su Li stretched out her hands and made fists in the air. The head and body of the Envoy with Xuemo Flute suddenly burst into blood mist with a “bang”. A transparent figure with a frightened face floated out of it, but it couldn’t escape. Hong Baizhu held the opportunity and detained it into Cang Lei’s Cave.
“Boss!!”
The burly man was frightened and angry, but he did not lose his mind. He immediately ordered, “Retreat! Everyone, retreat! Disperse and flee!”
He stomped fiercely and instantly rushed out far away.
Su Li came back to the spiritual boat instantly and saw numerous Xueyin Banditsrunning away. Her lips curled up, “Flee in front of me…”
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she glanced lightly, in a moment—
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” …
All Xueyin Bandits who fled exploded in the air at the same time. They could not even make a scream, because all of them exploded into blood mist and dissipated.
After this step, Su Li withdrew her hands, facing the petrified people standing on the spiritual boat, and said calmly, “Elder Huo, you should repair the spiritual boat first, and I will be back as soon as possible.”
Then she disappeared like a ghost again.
On the other side, the burly man clutched his chest and did not dare to relax. He ran away desperately and had escaped hundreds of miles in the blink of an eye.
“Since you are already here, why do you want to leave?”
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind him, which seemed to hasten his death. The burly man instantly got goose b.u.mps. He turned around and put his hands in front of his chest, with the golden light of his refining body s.h.i.+ning gloriously.
In the next instant, his arms were severed by sharp sword lights, and they were thrown high, with blood spilling in the air.
“You are not worth mentioning in my eyes.”
Su Li tilted her head and smiled, as if she was saying something that had nothing to do with life and death, “There are few body refiners in Qingshui Circle, so it is rare to see one. May I use the real body refining to kill you?”
“No!”
The burly man yelled in horror and wanted to escape. Su Li punched him, and then he and the surroundings were instantly annihilated, only leaving the cracked black flute floating in the air.
“It’s not broken?”
Su Li was slightly surprised. When she stretched out her hand, the flute fell on her hand voluntarily. It touched cold and was light, which was about fifty kilos in weight.
There wasn’t anything special. Su Li put it away, facing the broken spiritual boat in the distance, and she stopped smiling suddenly.
“Black Lotus, I still believe you too much. Before I refined the external incarnation, I asked you to stare at the outside. Why didn’t you tell me Xueyin Bandits struck us?”
The black ring appeared between Su Li’s fingers, and then Black Lotus emerged reluctantly. He shrunk his neck and didn’t dare to face Su Li.
Could he say that he felt unpleasant towards Jiang Run and wanted to teach him a lesson?
But after all, Jiang Run was almost killed. If he said that bluntly, Su Li might use Divine Thunder to sober him.
Su Li snorted coldly, “Tell me the origins of Xueyin Bandits. I will not blame you for negligence of duty.”
Hearing this, Black Lotus didn’t dare to hesitate and said honestly at once, “Xueyin Bandits… I have never heard of them. Perhaps they are the evil force that has formed over the past ten thousand years, but I know a little about the blood burning method that they just used. It is a method of evil pract.i.tioners called the Explosive b.l.o.o.d.y Line. In ancient times, many sects for evil pract.i.tioners could use it. Among them, the Xueshen Sect used it earliest and best, which used to have a great emperor. I don’t know his name, but he should not be powerful.”
“Don’t you even remember the name of the great emperor?”
Su Li raised her eyebrows, and said with a spurious smile, “No wonder I, only a junior emperor, am not up to your standard.”
Black Lotus broke out in a cold sweat, and smiled embarra.s.sedly, “Master, how dare I! There were thousands of great emperors in the ancient times. Among them, only the strong ones could leave a good name forever. Others couldn’t resist the erosion of time and are now reduced to dust. Except for their descendants, who remembers them?”
Then Black Lotus paused and sighed, “Whether he is a junior emperor or a great emperor, he is still mortal who will die! The real powerhouse is just like the woman you saw on the Chuangxing Path. She is unworldly like an immortal. She will not die for tens of thousands of years, and even…her life will be as long as heaven and earth!”
Su Li narrowed her eyes, “Have you seen her?”
“Yes!”
Black Lotus nodded proudly and reminiscently. He sighed with emotion, “During the All Spirits Age, cultivation was at its peak. There were a lot immortals walking around, but many of them lived a sequestered life. However… these immortals all disappeared later.”
“Why?”
Su Li still wanted to continue asking, but Black Lotus pointed at the spiritual boat and said with a reluctant smile, “Look, the spiritual boat has been repaired. Let’s go back quickly.”
Su Li glanced at Black Lotus deeply, brus.h.i.+ng her finger across the Black Lotus Ring.
“One day, you will be willing to say that.”
After saying that, she came back instantly. Black Lotus retracted into the ring s.p.a.ce. He patted his head frantically and couldn’t help but slap across his face. Then he raised his head and sighed,
“When could I change my habit of saying indiscreetly!”
…
When Su Li’s figure floated on the bow of the spiritual boat, the crowd waiting on the deck suddenly got up and surrounded her.
“Lord Qingshui!”
Jiang Run came with a badly wounded body and a pale face. He lowered his head and said ashamedly, “I just…”
“Silly boy, you always care about the sect. I have never blamed you… This time is my negligence that almost caused a catastrophe.”
Su Li shook her head and said that. After a beam of green light was pa.s.sed to him, Jiang Run suddenly felt a warm current flowing through the body along the meridians, and the injury healed in the blink of an eye.
“Brother Jiang Run, are you okay?!”
Ying Qiao’er opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and then looked back at Su Li with wors.h.i.+p in her eyes.
Lord Qingshui not only actioned decisively, but also mastered excellent medical skills!
There was such a perfect female senior in the world actually. Lord Qingshui was even better than her master!
Lord Qingshui would be heridol from now on! Ying Qiao’er thought.
Jiang Run moved his right hand away from his faintly painful chest. He was so happy that he quickly kneeled on one knee with reverence, “Lord Qingshui, thanks for healing me!”
“Never mind. Go back to have a rest.”
While saying, Su Li turned to look at the others, “You all more or less have suffered some injuries. Go back and seize the time to heal your injuries. Be sure to restore your peak states before the Tianjiao Battle. For other things…”
Su Li glanced at everyone and then said, “All will be okay with me.”
As soon as these words came out, all the young cultivators at the scene were excited, and they yelled, “We all follow the order of Elder Qingshui!”
Huo s.h.i.+chun repaired the rooms on the spiritual boat quickly. All people returned to their rooms one after another. Jiang Run walked at the end and looked back at the black figure on the deck who was always calm and unfl.u.s.tered. He suddenly understood what his master said before.
“There is always someone who makes you want to listen to her orders involuntarily, not only because of strength, but also because of…personality.”
In the blink of an eye, there was only Huo s.h.i.+chun, who was upset, on the deck.
No, there was another person.
Su Li’s lips curled up. She chuckled softly, “My good brother, are you still hiding?”
Huo s.h.i.+chun was stunned.
Brother. Did she ask him?
Before he asked, a figure jumped down from the second floor. The expression of astonishment in his eyes disappeared, and he said excitedly, “Sister! It’s really you!”
“This…this… Young Lord?”
Huo s.h.i.+chun’s eyes widened. The young lord actually knew Lord Qingshui, and called her sister?!
“It’s really me.”
Su Li gently straightened Xuan An’s messy hair, but she said with a hint of blame in her tone, “Why was your father willing to let you take risks? Even let you join Linli Building?! I’m going to reason with him.
“No, no, no.”
Xuan An suddenly panicked and said, “It’s my fault… Well, I accidentally found the confidential file. This time, uh… I also sneaked out.”
“I don’t believe that a dignified lord of sect, whose informers are all over the Jiuli Region, didn’t know you secretly went out.”
Su Li snorted coldly. Then she turned her head and glanced at Huo s.h.i.+chun, “You are also responsible for this matter.”
“Yes, I…”
Huo s.h.i.+chun nodded, and suddenly fell silent. He was forced by the young lord to conceal the whereabouts. But, why was he still scolded by the lord of the holy land?
Thinking of this, Huo s.h.i.+chun suddenly felt very wronged.
