Chapter 481 Should I be happy?
“Master!!”
The Black Lotus Ring violently shook. Black Lotus’s worries finally became a reality. The method that Zi Sha used until now was definitely not an ordinary snake venom.
Could Su Li hold it?
A glimmer of hope rose in Zi Sha’s dim pupils. As soon as the green poisonous mist appeared, it corroded the air and made sounds. It even corroded all Su Li’s clothes to nothing in the blink of an eye.
But…that was all. Su Li stood in the air without any clothes. Her slender and white body loomed and her white skin was glowing in the green mist.
Zi Sha’s breath stagnated.
It didn’t work at all?!
“This is your last method?”
Su Li tilted her head and smiled. Her long black hair danced with the wind. Such a beautiful scene was like a demon in Zi Sha’s eyes. Su Li said, “It really disappoints me.”
Then, Su Li twisted her fingertips to drive the wind and compressed the green poisonous mist into a ball. And then she sealed it into a bottle.
“Nice poison. I barely accept it.”
Zi Sha stared at Su Li in a daze. Countless past images flashed in her mind, including the glory of the Demon Clan when it thrived and the hard struggle of the Demon Clan in exile… Finally, bitter and relaxed smile appeared on her face.
“I lost…”
After she spoke that, her body scattered with the wind.
That lump of inborn poison was all she had.
Su Li looked at the green gla.s.s bottle in her hand. After taking a moment of silence, she took out a set of clothes from the universe ring and put it on.
The little white fox cheered and rushed towards the lake where Zi Sha’s body stayed.
After swallowing Zi Sha’s body, it would inevitably grow rapidly in a short time, and even transform into a person!
It was much easier for a natural mighty demon to transform into a person than a mighty demon in Demon Clan who formed through cultivation.
“Master, aren’t you happy that you killed Zi Sha and got the victory?”
Black Lotus felt a trace of emotion from Su Li, and couldn’t help but ask cautiously.
“Happy? Should I be happy?”
Su Li murmured in a low voice. She seemed answered, but it was more like asking herself.
In order to survive, Zi Sha had to find an opportunity to shed her skin, and in order to survive, Su Li had to kill Zi Sha.
No madness, no survival.
There was no absolute right or wrong in this world. Su Li didn’t hate Zi Sha, but now Zi Sha was killed by her. What should she be happy for?
“Wuyou.”
Su Li called gently. A white shadow shot out from the lake and fell on her shoulder.
“Hum?”
The big bright eyes of the little white fox were full of ignorance and doubt, as if it felt that Su Li was not in a good mood.
Su Li glanced at the empty lake. She didn’t know where the little white fox hid Zi Sha’s body. She gently touched the soft and fluffy head of the little white fox and then flew away.
“Fare well, Master!”
On the ground, Su Chenke knelt down and bowed deeply. His eyes were full of morbid enthusiasm.
Even a mighty demon could not escape the fate of being killed by his Master.
“I… will serve for you forever, Master!”
Half a day later, Su Li returned to the secret room in the forbidden land of the back mountain in Ni Sect, as if nothing had happened.
The news of Su Zhuonian’s death had not been spread. Only Su Chenke knew that. It was easy for Su Chenke to became the only master of Su Family through using secret force based on this situation.
Su Li didn’t pay attention to those trivial matters. And Su Chenke’s loyalty didn’t need to be doubted.
The only thing she needed to care about was the effect that the Reincarnation Mirror suppressed her pneuma.
After all, after she came out of the ancestral land of the Ghost Clan, her strength rose greatly and the pneuma of the body of evil ghost became stronger. If the Reincarnation Mirror couldn’t fully cover her pneuma, she would be in big trouble.
For this, Su Li specially spent some time making a test with external incarnations.
The disciples of Ni Sect obviously felt the frequent thunder around the sect during this month. It was said that it was a strange scene showed by Heaven, but there was no sign of any treasure coming out of the world. As time pa.s.sed, no one would care about it.
Hua Yan, Yan Ziye and others just felt strange, but they didn’t a.s.sociate it with Su Li.
In their opinions, although Su Li was powerful, she still didn’t reach nature’s test. Moreover, the flas.h.i.+ng thunder outside did not resemble the thunder for testing in nature’s test.
Three months later, Su Family was completely controlled by Su Chenke after a b.l.o.o.d.y clear of people. Su Li’s test also finally had a result.
At the forbidden land of the back mountain—
Su Li stood on a bare mountain that was struck by thunder. She sighed softly while she watched the last external incarnation was destroyed by the thunder.
The Reincarnation Mirror was too broken. Even if it completely digested the fragments s.n.a.t.c.hed from Han Sect, it did not reach its ten percent completeness. So, the effect of s.h.i.+elding nature law was extremely limited.
For this reason, Su Li had to work out solutions from the demon crystals that Zi Sha left.
After spending three months, she made a more than eleven-grade matrix rune with demon crystals and top-grade materials that were collected by the Grand Elder of Han Sect.
But the result of the test was not very satisfactory, just allowing her to burst out of sixty percent of her strength without being noticed by nature law.
If she released more than sixty percent strength, blue nature’s punishment would quickly gather like a shark that smelled the fishy smell.
If she released more than eighty percent strength, blue nature’s punishment would turn into the Purple Emperor-level Thunder just like it dealt with Zi Sha. At that moment, Su Li had to send out one or two external incarnations to completely offset nature’s punishment.
And if she burst out all her strength, the Purple Emperor-level Thunder would become a black thunder snake that she had never seen before. Its power was far more powerful than that of the Purple Emperor-level Thunder and reached a realm that Su Li couldn’t understand at all. Because of this… Su Li lost ten external incarnations!
“Master, even if you collect a lot of ghosts and souls in the ancestral land, you can’t waste them in this way!”
Seeing Su Li meditating, Black Lotus sighed. Those were all the fine souls that were carefully collected by the Ghost Clan within hundreds of thousands of years, but they were wasted in this way.
Su Li glanced at Black Lotus and didn’t say anything.
The waste of external incarnations was necessary. The plan she would implement next would inevitably be supported by strength.
It was impossible for her to count on the fragments of the Ghost Clan’s ancestral land to save her every time, or another mighty demon who could disturb the order of nature and let her take advantage of the loopholes.
When the ancestral land of the Ghost Clan collapsed, she gathered a lot of fragments and hid them in her carry-on s.p.a.ce to reduce their consumption. But she could feel that the power of the world fragments that had lost their cores was fading rapidly over time. After a few years, it might completely lose effectiveness.
Every time after she used them, the vanis.h.i.+ng of the fragments would be accelerated.
Moreover, last time in order to frighten the Grand Elder of Han Sect, she had already used ninety percent of the fragments. She would think it was lucky if the remaining fragments could kill a pract.i.tioner who was in Dacheng Realm.
Su Li took a deep breath. As the light flowing in her eyes, she was lost in thought.
She clearly understood!
Such strength and foundation were far from enough if she fought with Yuxu Sect!
However, if Immortal Tea Plant died, she would undoubtedly have less chance.
Time was running out!
“Master, are you back?”
In the mountain forest, the bell rang. Yan Ziye’s voice came into her ears.
Su Li slightly restrained her thoughts. Her body disappeared in a flash, and then appeared in front of Yan Ziye.
Yan Ziye had long been accustomed to Su Li’s fascinating way of appearance. He immediately said respectfully, “Master, there is something wrong in the Second Branch of Su Family. Su Chenke has gone to deal with it.”
“What happened?”
“Su Wenbing is dead.” Yan Ziye’s voice was slightly low.
Su Li frowned instantly.
One hour later, the hall where the Second Branch of Su Family stayed was full of solemn atmosphere.
Ling Qinglan, Su Dieyin, Su Xianyun and others were all present.
Su Li squatted down and lifted the white cloth on the ground. Su Wenbing’s pale face came into her view. There was not much panic on his face but more relief and shame.
She lifted the white cloth more open. Then she saw that there was a ma.s.s of rotten meat below Su Wenbing’s neck, as if he had been cut and shredded by extremely sharp golden pneuma, and failed to leave a whole body.
Su Li narrowed her eyes. After she put down the white cloth and stood up, she looked at Ling Qinglan.
Ling Qinglan understood what she meant. He shook his head and said, “I was careless. People of Jindao Cult suddenly attacked Dieyin. If he hadn’t blocked a blade strike…”
Su Li glanced at Su Dieyin, who was pale and stared at Su Wenbing’s corpse in a daze. She waved at Ling Qinglan, “Let’s go outside.”
Ling Qinglan nodded and left with Su Li.
Although he always had the strong intuition that Su Jiuzhou in front of him was Su Li, he was able to control his emotions compared with the scene last time.
“Tell me the whole process.”
Standing on the edge of the mountain cliff, Ling Qinglan followed Su Li. Hearing Su Li’s words, he said with a complex expression, “Su Dieyin’s background is related to Jindao Cult, and the Headmaster of Jindao Cult wants to kill her soon. After Su Zhuonian died, Jindao Cult wanted to do that and then the scene happened. I found these things afterwards. And before dying, Su Wenbing revealed that he was Su Dingxian’s illegitimate son…”
In the hall, after taking a deep breath, Su Dieyin walked to the white cloth and squatted down. She stretched out her hand to touch the white cloth and retracted her hand as if she got an electric shock.
All images happened yesterday flashed in her mind.
Golden blades shot like flying flowers in the sky were all blocked by Su Wenbing.
Su Dieyin stared at Su Wenbing who showed an expression of pain but still smiled at her. Su Wenbing’s b.l.o.o.d.y hands seized her tightly, and he choked with sobs.
“Since my father asked me to wors.h.i.+p you as the master, he hadn’t sent any messages for hundreds of years…”
“Master, I dare not to forget your kindness. I thought I didn’t need to go back to that h.e.l.l again in my life, but my father’s order is hard to violate!”
“No matter how he treats me, he is also my father. Master, I’m sorry…”
“I did something wrong and I will make confession in the h.e.l.l.”
“Master… take care of yourself.”
“Stupid boy. Su Dingxian treated you like that… He wasn’t worthy of you risking your life. When did he treat you as his son? It is my fault. If I could detect…”
Su Dieyin’s voice was hoa.r.s.e.
Su Xianyun and Su Zheng, who stood behind her, also cried and tightly grasped the swords in their hands.
They hadn’t felt the pain of the Third Junior Fellow Apprentice before, but it was too late now.
Footfall—
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps sounded. Su Dieyin raised her head and saw Su Li and Ling Qinglan coming. She was still in a daze, but saw Su Li suddenly smile and say to her in a relaxed tone,
