Chapter 639 She Couldn’t Do Anything
“A Little?”
Li Qing looked at Su Li’s serious expression and stayed silent for a moment. Then she suddenly laughed out loud, fondled Su Li’s head and said warmly, “You should heal your wounds first. The situation is not so bad that you have to help me.”
She was unclear about Su Li’s cultivation. Su Li just recovered a little to be almost equal to an ordinary person. Unless…she was powerful as Master of Chimo Circle, Chi Tian, and Deputy Master of Chimo Circle.
How could Su Li be like them as she was so young?
Su Li knew Li Qing’s thoughts, but she didn’t speak much. Su Li only said, “If you need my help, you can just tell me.”
“I see.”
Li Qing waved her hand. Su Li smiled and turned around to leave. After she was able to walk, Li Qing naturally changed her residence. In order to taking care of Su Li, she asked Li Dazhuang to move and let Su Li live in the next tent.
Early in the morning of the second day, Su Li was awakened by Wu Rong when she was in trance state.
“Li, are you still asleep? Get up!”
Wu Rong walked in and pulled up Su Li, who had just pretended to lie down, “Today, we will move our camp twenty milesfurther away from here. You still have injuries. Let me help you put away the tent.”
Su Li sat up with “sleepy eyes” and said, “Thank you.”
“Not at all. Put on clothes that are convenient for walking. We will set off right now.”
Wu Rong smiled. Su Li nodded and took off the Heavy Soul Robe. Suddenly, she felt relieved.
She almost forgot that this treasure still had a suppressive effect on her. When she was in her peak state, the Heavy Soul Robe had already lost its original effect. It was like durable clothes for her, but now…
Su Li smiled and took the Heavy Soul Robe in her hand. She walked to the door and saw that it was still dark outside. More than half of the one hundred tents had been put away. The packages were everywhere. In the fog of the night, many people were extremely busy with packing.
These people probably had started to pack since midnight. She only had a keen sense of danger, and she didn’t care much about what happened in the camp. So, she didn’t notice that last night.
It seemed that the s.p.a.ce in Li Qing’s universe ring was very limited. Otherwise, she should have put the entire camp directly into the ring and taken it away, and they shouldn’t have wasted such a long time to move.
At this moment, a tall and thin warrior who was in his early thirties came over. He seemed a little embarra.s.sed and scratched his head. He smiled, “h.e.l.lo, my name is Dai Hechun. Captain saved you that day, and I was on the spot as well… Is your name Su Li?”
Su Li nodded, staring at Dai Hechun with clear eyes, “What’s the matter?”
Dai Hechun suddenly flushed and stammered, “No… Nothing. I just want to apologize to you. That day I thought you were a figure in an ancient tomb. It was really rude…”
“Chun, stop talking to Sister Li outside. Come in to pack things up!”
The sound of Wu Rong gnas.h.i.+ng her teeth came from inside the house. Dai Hechun’s expression changed a little. He hurriedly gave a palm and fist salute to Su Li with a smile. Then he immediately drew up the door curtain and went in, “Sister Rong, let me help you!”
Su Li turned around, hearing Dai Hechun’s blandishments. She couldn’t help but laugh.
Dai Hechun was a sixth-cla.s.s warrior like Wu Rong. His cultivation shouldn’t be greatly inferior to that of Wu Rong. What made them afraid of Wu Rong?
However, she could still see that when Dai Hechun was looking at Wu Rong, his expression was not hypocritical and artificial. The circle of the entire camp was quite simple, making her feel the long-lost pure friends.h.i.+p without the slightest impurity.
So, there was little darkness in this small camp. Everyone knew that there were always dirty things in the world.
But if there was a kind person to guard this camp, the dark corners would be illuminated by the brilliance of human nature. The darkness would retreat and the camp would be more beautiful.
The only flaw was that Li Qing…was too weak.
Su Li looked back at the deep dark night outside the camp. She found an empty corner and entered Cang Lei’s Cave.
As soon as she entered the cave, Hong Baizhu cried and rushed to her.
“Sister, Brother Su Bai is gone!”
At this moment, there was no disgust for Su Bai in her eyes. There were full of worries in her eyes. “When shall we look for Brother Su Bai?”
“Rest a.s.sured.”
Su Li knelt down and wiped away the blood tears from the corners of Hong Baizhu’s eyes. Then she said warmly, “When I recover, I will find Brother Bai soon.”
Hong Baizhu replied and raised her head. She saw the First Elder of Ling Family was floating over.
At this moment, his body was much firmer and more distinct than that of him at the end of the divine awareness. It seemed that he had gained a lot of benefits staying beside Hong Baizhu.
“Young… Little Fellow Pract.i.tioner Su Li, did you come to Chimo Circle?”
Although the First Elder of Ling Family was in Cang Lei’s Cave, he could see everything that happened outside. He naturally knew the ident.i.ty of Su Li. He wanted to call Mistress of Young Lord respectfully, but he didn’t say that, for fear of making Su Li uncomfortable.
Since they had a relations.h.i.+p, he did not resist Su Li’s proposal and he wanted to help Su Li overcome the difficulties as much as possible.
“Yes, that cross-circle rune worked.”
Su Li nodded. The First Elder of Ling Family covered his chest, “Too risky. Little Fellow Pract.i.tioner Su Li, if that cross-circle rune had lost efficacy, you would have seriously injured and even have been killed by Bai Mo!”
Light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. She said calmly, “I don’t like ‘if’. If I hadn’t done those things that I was not quite sure about, I would have been dead long ago.”
The First Elder of Ling Family sighed, “You are right. Since you have come to Chimo Circle, you may find a place there to practice with all your strength. The Chimo Circle began to decline in the era of the Master of Chimo Circle. The Death Region actually is not poison. It’s not a foreign invasion as well. It means that this circle is coming to an end and getting old quickly. This is an opportunity for you!”
The First Elder of Ling Family’s eyes brightened. “Back then, I have heard the Master mentioned that the end of Chimo Circle was coming, and it seemed that its environment was exposed under the Starry Sky World without natural law’s jurisdiction, so you can practice there and wouldn’t be suppressed by any rules. Little Fellow Pract.i.tioner Su Li, if you have any methods that you haven’t mastered, you can make full use of the time when you practice there!”
“Really?”
Su Li was surprised. In the past few days, 80% of her energy was devoted to healing, and the remaining 20% was used to absorb the black lotus pneuma. She just practiced Suiyu Tacticsoccasionally, and she didn’t notice this change.
She had practiced Suiyu Tactics for many years, but her cultivation was still at the second hurdle of Yumo Realm. But her physical strength had been greatly increased, and it could also help her s.h.i.+eld the exploration and investigation of the natural law.
If she could be at the third, fourth, or even the highest hurdle, she would be unimaginably powerful. She looked forward to achieving it.
“First Elder, thanks for informing me!”
The First Elder felt flattered when he heard Su Li’s sincere thanks. He understood that her life was ruined by Bai Mo and the Young Lord of Ling Family also committed a lot of sins. He didn’t see the Junior Young Lord Su Buw.a.n.g and didn’t know if Su Buw.a.n.g inherited the bloodline of Ling Family or not.
After bidding farewell to the First Elder, Su Li came to the small island where Su Bai lived. It was originally a barren place, but under the influence of Su Bai, it became a place br.i.m.m.i.n.g over with vigor and vitality.
In the center of the island, the pneuma of Divine Thunder of Wood was still very strong. Traces of green thunder pa.s.sed through her pores and entered her body, creating a tingling sensation and stimulating her body to produce new blood.
It was extremely good for her to heal her wounds here.
Su Li sat down cross-legged. Suiyu Tactics disappeared on its own and Ghost Valley Meditation Directionsuddenly started. The thunder energy wandering around was immediately pulled to wrap Su Li into a green light ball.
Originally, she didn’t want to use the thunder power left by Su Bai, but the upcoming unknown danger made her take precautions early. She didn’t know how powerful the corpse monsters mentioned by Li Qing were.
At this moment, in outside world—
Standing at the center of the camp, Li Qing relaxed as she watched the sun rising from the horizon.
It was a sound night.
She reached her hand into the universe ring and saw it was no s.p.a.ce in it. She sighed, “The rest of the luggage should be divided equally among all the able-bodied youths. And the others help each other to carry the luggage.”
She knew that someone would die of exhaustion during this migration. But for everyone to survive, they must move.
Thinking of this, Li Qing turned to look at dozens of warriors on the other side. She gave a serious look, “Wu Rong and Dai Hechun, you two lead the group. Dazhuang, you lead the other low-cla.s.s warriors in the middle. I will guard the rear. Got it?”
“Got it!” Everyone shouted.
“Captain, don’t worry. I promise to find an absolutely safe place to settle down.”
Wu Rong smiled confidently. Suddenly she sensed the light of the morning sun that was dimming again, and she couldn’t help but tilt her head to look at the direction of the Death Region. Her smiling face was suddenly distorted by her fear, and her voice trembled uncontrollably.
“Captain… Behind!”
Li Qing was shocked. Countless images flashed back in her mind, and finally she saw the scene when the large-scale camp with the honor of “Thousand Cities” was shattered many years ago.
Her father’s heavy sigh sounded faintly in her ears.
“The sun does not rise every day.”
Li Qing turned around slowly, looking at the huge monster that was much taller than the wall. She recalled the small corpse monster that was not bigger than a palm a few days ago. She couldn’t help trembling her lips.
“Giant corpse?!”
“How could it… Impossible!”
“I have clearly set up a camouflage rune tactical matrix. Here is just the periphery of the Death Region. It is impossible!!”
Ho-ho—
Hahaha—
Two completely different kinds of whispers came out of the giant corpse’s mouth, and Li Qing saw a palm-sized little monster lying next to the giant corpse’s mouth. It was the corpse monster which attacked her a few days ago.
At this moment, she understood everything.
What she encountered was not an ordinary corpse monster, but a high-level corpse monster with intelligence, which…summoned the giant corpse!
Li Qing’s eyes were red, and she was desperate. The familiar and painful memory was dragged out of the deepest part of her mind by the giant corpse in front of her.
She had seen such a giant one before. The giant corpse in front of her was taller than the one that destroyed her father’s camp back then… Her father, who was an eighth-cla.s.s warrior (in nature’s test), was beat to death with one slap by the giant corpse!!
She… What could she do as a puny seventh-cla.s.s warrior?
