Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Fright of Yun Yi
Qiu Meng ordered servants to prepare the lunch and let a mammy go to the East Courtyard to call Ling Li and Su Li. But the mammy came back alone and said happily,

“Madam, little Master and Miss Su Li strolled outside. They are not in the East Courtyard!”

After hearing this, Qiu Meng was surprised and delighted. Suddenly she thought of something and asked quickly, “It's not peaceful in Yunjing City. How could they go out alone? Did a guard follow?”

“Xian said Miss Su Li has been protected by the maids around her, and some guards are also there. Don't worry, Madam.”

Qiu Meng signed with relief after hearing the words, with happiness in her eyes.

This silly boy said that he didn't know how to amuse a girl, but the girl was willing to go out with him after they just met. It seemed that Li probably would get married!

Thinking of this and looking at a table of hearty dishes in front of her, Qiu Meng decisively sat down and began to eat. Her appetite became better.

Obviously, there was no way that she could eat all the dishes alone. She would definitely waste them. But whatever, wasting was rare in the Ling Mansion.

Su Li, Ling Li and Yun Yi walked in a dark paved path, and there were lights along the way.

Yun Yi walked behind Su Li and Ling Li, with astonishment on his face. The underground of Yunjing City was full of hard slates. How much was the cost of labor, materials and time to build such a paved path?

Ling Li, the disabled little Master, had a big secret!

Pit-pat…

The sound of footsteps was very clear, echoing in the quiet environment. Su Li was surprised but looked cool. She had thought that there was an adytum in the underground of the East Courtyard, but it was a way! Which place did the way lead to?

Su Li, Ling Li and Yun Yi walked fast. Five minutes later, a turning appeared, and a taste of earth overwhelmed them. Yun Yi immediately realized that it was the suburb of Yunjing City.

The hidden path was dug from the Ling Mansion to the suburb. Even if it was dug straightly, the distance must be more than ten miles!

Yun Yi roughly estimated the cost of labor and looked at Ling Li's back with awe. The Third Childe of the Ling Family was even more mysterious and horrible than he thought.

Suddenly!

Ling Li stopped walking.

Su Li squinted and saw a turning. In the middle of the path from south to north, there was an upward stone staircase. It reminded her of the map of Yunjing City. She immediately knew the place and asked,

“Why do you take me to Moyin?”

Ling Li smiled and shook his head. He said with a gentle and deep voice, “I'll take you to a special place. Dude, you can go up.”

Yun Yi was stunned, pointing to himself subconsciously, “Me?”

“Yes.”

Ling Li nodded without an explanation.

Yun Yi looked at Su Li for permission. Su Li hesitated for a moment and said, “Go up and keep polite.”

The place where they were going next must be more important than the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult in the Moyin Street, and Yun Yi hadn't been fully trusted by Ling Li.

But—

There was no reason for Ling Li to believe in him completely.

“Yes, Miss.”

Seeing that Su Li agreed, Yun Yi nodded and walked up the stone staircase, but thought, “Moyin sounds familiar. I might have heard it before…”

The stone staircase had dozens of steps. Yun Yi walked to the end and came to a small room with all kinds of weapons and clothes. They glittered coldly and must be excellent weapons and armors.

He had no clue. Then he pushed the door open and went out. The scene outside instantly made him stunned.

In the spacious and bright hall, Ling Qinglan sat on the seat of honor with the mask of Qinghu. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and sat against the chair. Ling Liuyi and others were sitting around the long table as well.

When Yun Yi opened the door, they all looked at him. In an instant, they glanced at him with hostility and coldness in their eyes. Yun Yi was scared and had goose bumps.

“Where the hell am I?”

Why were there so many seniors of the inborn realm? Such cold air… Each of them must have killed dozens of lives at least!

He didn't dare to move and just turned his eyes slowly. Finally he looked at Ling Qinglan's mask.

A cyan fox… This mask was also familiar!

He looked up slowly. Suddenly he saw the screen which was carved with the image of a large jade-bone mask behind Ling Qinglan. He was enlightened suddenly. Wasn't it the same as the mask of Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult?

Wait!

Yun Yi realized something and suddenly looked very uncomfortable. He should have known that a man wearing the mask with the image of a cyan fox should be…

A cyan fox meant it was Qinghu!

“Who are you?”

Looking at Yunyi's face with mixed feelings, Ling Qinglan began to speak without any nervousness. He didn't think that the East Courtyard of the Ling Mansion had the possibility of being broken through suddenly, and today…

Yun Yi felt nervous and said constrainedly, “I'm the guard of Princess Li. Where is this place?”

“Snigger!”

Ling Liuyi burst out laughing. He couldn't help saying, “You have come here, but you don't know where it is. I'll tell you. It's Moyin, the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult!”

Yun Yi had blurred vision, and he almost fell over. He held the door with one hand and pressed his chest with the other. For a moment, he could not speak.

At this moment, he was choked up with emotions.

Moyin!

As expected, this was Moyin, the headquarters of the evil cult in the legend!

What was the status of Childe Ling Li?

Childe Ling Li could bring him to the headquarters. So, his rank must be high in the evil cult. He was a protector as a minimum. Unexpectedly, the little Master of the General's Mansion in the imperial court should have such a deep connection with the leader of a cult of the evil circle in the martial arts circle. It was shocking.

Seeing that Yun Yi was shocked, Ling Qinglan couldn't help laughing in his heart. He shook his hand and gave an order, “You're dismissed. Do not frighten our guest. Serve the tea.”

It was obvious that Ling Li adored Su Li. Since this person was her confidant, he must be well treated.

Yun Yi felt better and then gave the fist and palm salute while smiling constrainedly. He stammered, “Thank you… Lord Qinghu!”

He couldn't be blamed for the nervousness because Qinghu was the most powerful person besides Childe Li!

According to the rumor, he became the military adviser in the Yinmo Cult and continuously organized several purges for sects. The sects showing their slight skills before the Yinmo Cult were killed completely. Many sects with a similar size as the Yunge Sect were destroyed. That was terrible.

After the two persons sat down and talked for a while, Yun Yi found that Qinghu might not be that terrible as he imagined. The latter had an encyclopedic mind and unmatchable wisdom. He broadened Yun Yi's horizon in only five minutes.

“Lord Qinghu, I have a question, but I don't know whether to ask.”

Yun Yi held a tea cup, looking restrained. He was too curious, so he spoke it out.

“What's the question?”

Ling Qinglan asked as before, with a bit of banter in his eyes. He just asked the reason why Yun Yi knew nothing as a person around Su Li. He replied, “Miss Su Li asked me to go without an explanation.”

Miss Su Li was as interesting as Mr. Li.

“I want to ask about the relationship between the third son of the Ling General's Mansion and your cult.”

Yun Yi asked nervously, and hurriedly added, “Lord Qinghu, if my question touches the secret of your cult, just ignore it. I am just a little curious.”

“It's really a secret.” Ling Qinglan nodded. Hearing it, Yun Yi was a little confused. But he felt doubtful hearing the latter part, “Since you came with Ling Li, it is not a secret.”

Then Ling Qinglan stretched out his finger to the screen and asked, “Do you see the pattern of the mask?”

Yun Yi nodded repeatedly and answered, “Sure! Everyone knows the title of Childe Li.”

“That mask belongs to Ling Li.”

Ling Qinglan added calmly, and Yun Yi was instantly confused.

Master Ling Li… He was Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult, Childe Li?!

Tick…

There were drops of water in the stone gap of the paved path. Su Li took a drop falling on the fingertips and felt it for a moment. She said, “This is the barren mountain outside the Yunjing City. Are men of your cult mice? Why do you dig such a long tunnel?”

Su Li's metaphor was quite offensive. If anyone said in this way, Ling Li must be angry. But for Su Li, he could only secretly smile and said, “Su Li, if a force in the martial arts circle wants to exist for a long time, what's the most important thing?”

“Vitality! A force with new blood will not be defeated!” Su Li said without thinking, and then she suddenly realized something, with her eyes flashing lightly. She said, “Was the Yinmo Cult's secluded site for training new blood in the mountains?”

Ling Li was surprised first, and then his eyes became complicated. He felt jealous but pretended to be calm, “It seems that you are very familiar with the affairs of the sect. Is it because of the Ling Li Building?”

Su Li frowned slightly and said unhappily, “Don't connect me with Mr. Li. I have no relationship with him.”

She created “Mr. Li” to separate Ling Li with her. If Ling Li thought that she was related to the Linli Building, all efforts were in vain.

But Su Li didn't know that when Ling Li heard her words, they were immediately misinterpreted.

There was no intimacy between Su Li and Mr. Li!

“Was she explaining it to me?”

“Does she care about my feelings?”

Instantly Ling Li's mind was in a whirl. The uncommon emotions made his cold and evil face relaxed and gentle suddenly. He walked happily and said, “It's almost the destination. There are barren mountains stretching above without stop, so I call it the Barren Mountain Courtyard.”

Ling Li slowed down deliberately, so that he could walk with Su Li in parallel. He peeped at her side face, with his eyes full of softness like water.

Mother used to say if someone wanted to get attention, he had to be honest with others. “Now, I will show you everything I have!”
