Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 261

Chapter 261 Discovery

The frost in early spring morning was thick, and both sides of streets were white. The frost wouldn't fade until the sun rose.

In the room of the Affiliated School of the National Academy where Su Li lived, the charcoal crackled, and the wisps of heat rose from the holes in the heater, making the room as warm as spring.

Su Li was dressed in a thin garment and lay on the couch by the window. Her clear eyes were fixed on the old pamphlet in her hands and she was fascinated.

When the first light of morning came in through the window, Su Li was squinting and putting down the booklet.

“I didn't expect that after breaking the ring, my understanding could be improved so much. In just two days, I have learnt the fourth hurdle of the Ao Sword Skills and the fifth hurdle is around the corner.”

She couldn't think of the disadvantages of breaking the ring, and the consciousness of Mei Ruohan wouldn't tell her either, so it would be better if she thought more about how to make use of the foundation.

In recent days, she had studied it and discovered something.

The speed of promoting cultivation became faster!

And it was so fast that as long as she wanted it, she could break through the longevity realm!

It was better to say that she was now in “transformation” than cultivation. She could transform the foundation into cultivation, which was certainly faster than absorbing spiritual power from outside.

Of course, the faster she practiced, the faster she would die. If she couldn't grasp this point, it was useless to have so much cultivation.

The second was the improvement of understanding.

Su Li was curious about the fact that she had practiced the Ao Sword Skills of Jin Cheng'ao for a long time, but she always stayed in the fourth hurdle and never broke through the fifth hurdle. Although she had made some achievements about the sword in the previous life, she still couldn't completely understand such a wonderful book with her talent.

But these defects disappeared after breaking the ring!

It was like that her understanding had been extraordinary since she was born.

“It's great for me to learn the Ao Sword Skills by my understanding, without consuming the foundation; otherwise it couldn't afford it.”

Su Li sighed. If a warrior practiced only depending on genuine energy without the means against the enemy, he was useless!

If the man in the inborn second hurdle who only focused on cultivation met the man in the inborn first hurdle who had experienced a lot, the former might be unable to resist one move. So, the warrior who did well in both cultivation and martial skills could be strong!

“My cultivation now is staying at the peak of the inborn realm and I don't know how much it will cost to break through the longevity realm. Now I don't have to rush to break through. Instead, I'd better spend all my time on martial arts. With this powerful understanding, maybe I can compete with those in the longevity realm by some means!”

Su Li changed her mind, and at this moment, Mammy Li came to report with delight outside the door.

“Miss, First Master is coming!”

First Master?

Su Li was stunned, and then she became gentle, “Eldest Brother?”

“Yes, First Master just came back last night and came here this morning!”

Hearing it, Su Li smiled, “Let him wait a moment. I'm going to dress up.”

“Yes!”

Mammy Li answered and hurried to reply.

Soon, Su Li changed her clothes and came to the front room, where she saw Mammy Li and Su Qingtan chatting casually.

“Mammy, if you hadn't taken the risk to find me two years ago, I wouldn't have known that Second Sister had suffered so much. Now all sufferings have their reward.”

“You're right!”

Su Qingtan sighed. The identity of Su Li didn't affect his protection for her, which had been budding since a long time ago. Now he knew that Su Li had no blood relationship with him, and he didn't know what his emotion was.

“Eldest Brother!”

The clear and sweet voice like spring water suddenly came. Su Qingtan was moved and turned around. He saw that Su Li came in a plain white dress and that her temperament was more remarkable than before, with her skirt floating. She was like a fairy.

Su Qingtan was stunned for a while. Second Sister was more beautiful in the past half year. Although her beautiful look was covered with the secret method of Nothing Unusual, it was still intoxicating.

“Eldest Brother, what's wrong?”

As Su Li neared, Su Qingtan came to his sense and smiled in silence, “Second Sister, I'm afraid that there are so many people coming to propose marriage now.”

Hearing it, Su Li squinted and chuckled, “You are kidding, Eldest Brother. Nobody. No one dares to come.”

Su Qingtan was stunned again. In his impression, Second Sister had never said anything so domineering.

She became confident and calm. She was no longer a weak girl who always asked for his opinions.

In his opinion, Su Li had been a frightened fawn before, but now she was an elegant white swan.

Thinking of her present identity, Su Qingtan looked slightly stiff and reluctantly laughed, “Second Sister, you seem to have changed a lot in the past half year.”

“People always change with time.”

Su Li pretended to sigh and immediately put her arms around Su Qingtan and said seriously, “No matter how I change, you're my Eldest Brother!”

Su Qingtan was stunned for a moment, but he smirked and nodded heavily.

“I will always be your Eldest Brother!”

At the same time, Su Qingtan got relaxed and felt a little ashamed. For a moment, he thought that Su Li would rely on her identity and estrange him.

He thought too much. No matter how her temperament changed, it was enough for him that she didn't change when facing him.

After that, Su Qingtan opened his mind. He played with Su Li for a day, and then left in the evening. Ling Qinglan only gave him a day off, and he spent all his time on Su Li.

“Eldest Brother, be careful.”

The carriage of Su Qingtan drove away from the Affiliated School of the National Academy. Su Li's gentle expression faded. She returned to the room. Fang Yuan, who hid behind the screen, flashed up and frowned,

“Su Qingtan is involved in the Yinmo Cult. Do you want to help him?”

The Linli Building was very familiar with the situation in Yunjing City because there was the Hongyan House serving as the intelligence agency. Although everything was calm now, the Yinmo Cult… would still do harm to the royal family in the end. If Su Qingtan got involved, he must be in danger.

Su Li frowned and pondered. Then she shook her head and said, “It's improper. Qiyu Xuangong is the secret skill of the Yinmo Cult. Eldest Brother has cultivated this skill, and he is a key member of the Yinmo Cult. Even if Ling Li lets him go, the elders of the Yinmo Cult won't agree.”

“Incredible.”

Fang Yuan was upset and stopped talking. He couldn't compete with Su Li at all in terms of field of vision.

Su Li was worried about many things at this time, except those about Su Qingtan. The current situation was stable. Su Qingtan was also a senior of the inborn realm now for Ling Qinglan's help. Since his ability had improved a lot, he couldn't be killed easily.

At present, the most important thing for her was the Wanjian Sect.

After what happened in the auction house, the people of the Wanjian Sect had disappeared. After Wen Tingshan went to Qinghe Province and came back, it was quite unreasonable that nothing had happened for such a long time.

There were only two possibilities. One was that the people of the Wanjian Sect had gone and wouldn't chase Wen Tingshan. But for the head of the Wanjian Sect, those people couldn't give up easily.

The other possibility was that they were delayed. Someone might face a breakthrough or a greater benefit.

“There are few people that could help cover up their whereabouts in Yunjing City without any omission!”

Su Li blinked, “Help me make a disappointment with Ling Li with the identity of 'Mr. Li' tomorrow!”

“Meet him?!”

Fang Yuan was slightly amazed and became unhappy, and then he couldn't help asking, “Why do you meet him?”

Su Li turned around, and her clear eyes seemed to know everyone well, which made Fang Yuan feel frightened.

“I just…”

Fang Yuan wanted to explain, but he was interrupted by Su Li, with a calm voice.

“The Wanjian Sect is very powerful. If I can't find it as soon as possible, the Linli Building will be in a mass. The relationship between the Yinmo Cult and the Wanjian Sect wasn't good in the spiritual circle before. The cooperation with the Yinmo Cult is a win-win situation. And…”

Saying this, Su Li had mixed feelings but still looked cold, “Because of me, the Linli Building should respond. This is the best time for me to disassociate myself with 'Mr. Li'!”

Fang Yuan frowned and then felt relieved. A hint of a pleasant surprise appeared on his grim face.

He still didn't know what Su Li wanted to do, but it was the first time that Su Li had explained the purpose of an action to him, which made him very happy.

Soon, Fang Yuan left at night.

Looking at the dark sky, Su Li stood in the cold wind for a moment. Then she went back to the room and continued to learn the Ao Sword Skills.

Soon, the Ling Mansion knew the news of the Linli Building.

“Li's affair has been over for seven days. Why does the Linli Building react now? Is it Mr. Li?”

Receiving the news, Ling Li frowned with a very puzzled look.

It was strange. If Mr. Li was about to revenge for Su Li, they shouldn't be slow in action. But if they didn't have a deep relationship with Su Li, he shouldn't participate in this thing, which might cause many troubles.

Ling Qinglan, who came to deliver the news, also looked solemn. He said, “We had always been in a cooperative relationship with the Linli Building before. For the thing about the Full Moon and Heart Strings, we even had established a preliminary friendship. We rely them on many elixirs and poisons. So, if Mr. Li cuts off the supply, our actions would be affected.”

Ling Li closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows. He opened his eyes again, with light in his eyes flashing.

“Make a full preparation tomorrow. Whatever Mr. Li does, I'll respond!”

Looking at Ling Li, who had lost a lot of weight in recent days, Ling Qinglan couldn't help sighing. Because of the absurd thing, Ling Li had been hurt too much. Now, although he focused on the vital plan, the focus of trying to shift his attention was even more painful for him…
