Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 427

After feeling weightless for a short time, Su Li opened her eyes and a vast land of ruins under the dark cloudy sky came into view.

A smell of decay pervaded in the air. It seemed that no one had been here for at least a few hundred years.

Su Li sniffed the air and could vaguely smell a trace of blood.

“Battlefield…”

Su Li narrowed her eyes slightly, and subconsciously associated this place with the passage to Tiannan Chaos Zone that Su Mu mentioned before.

“What's this?”

Su Xianyun, who was not far away, came back to his senses as his foot stepped on a brand-new jade slip. Curious, he picked up the slip and Su Zheng and Su Wenbing then came closer to have a look.

Throwing a glance at the three, Su Li then looked around the place where a dozen of people who had stood near were also teleported here.

“Is this the first level?!”

Su Zheng couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, which still attracted some attention.

Su Li came over as she heard it. Su Xianyun nodded to her and handed out the jade slip

A quick glance with her psychic awareness soon revealed the contents of the jade slip.

“This space is a ruin of the Exorcism Battlefield. Some evil practitioners escaping from the exorcism still haunt here!”

“This is the first test and the space will be closed in three days. By then, all of you will be ejected. The score will be based on your kills!

Besides, you can own all the magic treasures acquired in this space!

The evil practitioners are tricky and cunning, so don't take them lightly and lose your life for nothing.”

Small characters were densely arranged on the jade slip. After a brief description, records of the practice of evil practitioners and the evidence of the kills followed.

Su Li kept the contents in mind after a glance and returned the jade slip. Some thoughts flashed over her eyes.

“In that case, I was not in Yuxu Sect.”

“I guess I have to improvise my plan now. But something is weird…”

Su Li pondered for a moment and sent out two messages secretly. She didn't know if Su Mu and Su Yang could receive the messages.

“Score by killing numbers?”

Su Zheng read the slip excitedly and said, “Exorcising evildoers is where our duty lays as practitioners! This tea party is much more interesting!”

“Evil practitioners? They lived in ancient times, right? It's said there were many of them. So, they're still alive?”

Su Li looked at the practitioners chatting merrily and gathering in groups as if they had come for an outing.

She turned away and walked alone to a ruined wall. She picked up a piece of rag under a stone for numerous years. A trace of grievance still lingered over it.

“A piece of spiritual armor woven with spiritual silk. It has just yellowed but not decayed, so it must be from five hundred to one thousand years ago. Could this place be the passage Su Mu had mentioned…”

Su Li speculated again as her eyes flickered.

Suddenly, a mournful howl broke the stillness with the sound of something rolling down.

Su Li stood up and looked back. It was just when she turned around that

The gravels under the wreckage were shot at her neck like sharp arrows. As the sharp pneuma was about to cut open her throat, Su Li suddenly moved a step left, so that the gravels missed her and shattered into pieces after hitting the wall.

“Enemy!”

Su Xianyun and the other two turned around, only to see that a headless body collapsed with its blood re-staining the ground that hadn't been touched for a long time.

As they were distracted, blood spurted from the throats of some young practitioners who were left alone. They would not survive.

Before reaching the Yuanying Realm, practitioners would have the same physical weakness as the mortal. They could also die if a vital body part was hit.

“Who did it?!”

Nervous, everyone became immediately on guard.

“Where is Su Jiuzhou?”

Su Xianyun looked around and suddenly thought of Su Li. He then looked in the direction where Su Li had walked towards.

Seeing Su Li still standing there alive, he couldn't help but sigh with relief and led the others to protect her, saying seriously, “Junior sister apprentice, this place is very strange. Stay with us and don't go alone.”

Su Li nodded and walked to Su Xianyun's side without saying anything.

Su Zheng was about to complain but restrained himself on second thought after seeing Su Xianyun's determination. He transmitted his voice secretly, “Senior fellow apprentice, we still didn't know how those people were killed and we are also in danger. I don't think it would be a good idea to take another burden with us.”

“Su Jiuzhou is a member of our second branch. As the eldest disciple, I am obliged to protect her, so no such words in the future.”

Su Xianyun secretly warned Su Zheng. Watching around, he said in a deep voice, “This place is weird. We'd better leave first.”

“That would be fine.”

Su Li agreed and followed Su Xianyun. Su Zheng sighed and caught up.

Su Wenbing, who was walking at the rear, glanced at the three traces of crushed stones on the wall. Although puzzled, he had no time to think it over. He turned and caught up quickly.

Seeing Su Xianyun and his team members were leaving, other teams could not stay anymore. Although they did not know where to go, staying here and waiting for death was simply not a good choice.

“Damn it! Those old bastards went too far! I knew it!”

Su Yang was terribly angry and blasted a corpse on the ground into pieces, “Even if it's not the main battlefield of Tiannan Chaos Zone, we are not far from it!”

After plundering the corpses quickly with a cold face, Su Mu stood up and said simply, “Let's go and find Su Jiuzhou!”

Su Yang's eyes lit up and he laughed, “Great. It is the safest place around that old fox! But I still remembered someone had said that he didn't trust her.”

Su Mu took a glimpse at him and disappeared instantly.

Su Yang froze for a second and looked at the corpses on the ground. Nothing was left, even the clothes. He became furious, “Give back my booty! Blockhead, wait!”

Meanwhile, on the wasteland where Su Li landed.

After all the disciples were gone, three figures emerged after a few fluctuations in the space. They began to talk with their thoughts mingling together.

“They were on no guard at all; absolutely newbies of alien clans.”

“I killed five. But there were too many of them and I had no time to loot the treasures.”

“I missed one. I have no idea whether it's her luck or she had hidden her strength. Then her teammates came and I couldn't strike again.”

“Keep hunting!”

After the leader finished his words, the three figures faded away once again.

Half a day passed in the blink of an eye. Su Xianyun had been leading the group to search the ruins and found a lot of strange and bizarre items. As they were about to celebrate the trip when they finally encountered the first wave of enemies.

Both groups were stunned when meeting around the corner at the gate of the giant relic.

Before Su Xianyun and others could ask any questions, the opposite four people rushed to them madly without a talk, mumbling something that no one could understand.

“Evil practitioners!”

While Su Zheng and the other two were still in a daze, Su Xianyun reacted quickly with a stern expression and shouted, “Kill!”

For no reason, the two sides fought furiously in an instant.

Clank!

The enormous force surprised Su Xianyun immediately as soon as the weapons collided.

What strength! He must be a body practitioner!

Su Zheng and the others also got a numb arm because of the collision and fell back at once. The enemies tested out their strength and revealed an awful smile.

Only the practitioner who clashed with Su Li froze, since the force of that collision was so immense that his half body went numb.

“I picked a female practitioner, but how could she be the most powerful among them?”

As the man was complaining, the other three all laughed wildly and came near to him with their pneuma and blood erupting, “Second Brother, you couldn't show mercy to that female practitioner, could you? Hahaha…”

Seeing this, Su Xianyun immediately shouted, “Stay back! Keep distance and fight them with your flying swords! We are no match for them in close combat!”

Su Zheng and Su Wenbing immediately followed the instruction, so did Su Li, which confused her opponent, “Why did you step back? I was the weak one in close combat!”

Knowing that Su Xianyun and the others were not in danger for the time being, Su Li continued to pretend to struggle with the enemy.

Seeing this, her opponent finally realized that she did not intend to expose her strength. He felt lucky but aggrieved. Suddenly, he exerted his pneuma and blood to an extreme and turned himself into a bloody figure attacking madly.

Hearing the sound, Su Xianyun could not help but worry about Su Li's safety, but he was now fully engaged in his own battle. He could only hope that Su Li would hold on a little longer.

The eight people were now fighting fiercely in pair in the giant ruins, making the space full of flying sand and rolling rubble.

Su Li was observing the man as she coped with his attack carelessly.

“The way their pneuma and blood erupted seems similar to the pneuma and blood school. But it is more primitive and wilder, and not as subtle as the swordsmanship of that school… Where did these people come from?”

“Could it be possible that most people practice pneuma and blood discipline in that world Su Yang had mentioned?”

Su Li couldn't help but associate those things when her opponent attacked with perseverance. She waved back carelessly, but this time her opponent failed to resist her strength. “Boom!” The man was shot out like a cannonball into the ruins.

Su Li was slightly stunned, for she did not use much strength. Did his strength from pneuma and blood decline? A decline of strength didn't exist in the pneuma and blood school.

She landed softly, swept away the stones covering on him, and found her enemy had died of exhaustion of pneuma and blood. She was rendered speechless.

The first enemy she encountered died of exhaustion.

“Ah!!”

As she put away the universe ring from the corpse, Su Zheng's scream came suddenly from the distance. Su Li concentrated and flew to follow the sound…

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

In a gloomy cave in a woodland, Su Xianyun and his group leaned against the cave wall with dust covering their body. They had all got injured.

In the first few days, they met just well-matched squads. But later they met groups of more than one hundred enemies, as if they had been targeted.

The three nearly jumped out of their skin. They darted away and hid wherever it was possible.

“Well, only a quarter left.”

Su Zheng was sitting on a tree trunk, waving his hand which was fixed just now, relaxed.

In these three days, they encountered quite a few teams. They fought in half of the time and escaped in the other half. Each time, they could make a narrow escape, which surprised themselves as well.

“Eldest senior fellow apprentice, why did those people have such deep hatred towards us?”

Su Zheng made a voice transmission unpleasantly. He remembered the first encounter in the giant ruins. As he stabbed into the enemy's heart with his flying sword, the man ruthlessly bit his palm off. If Su Xianyun didn't come in time and cut off the man's head, Su Zheng's hand would have been eaten.

Su Xianyun clutched his chest and coughed lightly, shaking his head, “How should I know? Maybe we'll find out the answer when we get out.”

After speaking this, he glanced at Su Li who was sitting quietly in the corner. He was confused.
