Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 445

Chapter 445 Not wrong about her

“What are you doing?”

Seeing no severe injuries on them, Su Dieyin was relieved and asked.

“Master, please save Su Jiuzhou!”

Su Jiuzhou?!

Su Dieyin opened her beautiful eyes slightly wide. She turned and saw Su Jiuzhou in the inner room meditating. Compared to the neatly-dressed Su Xianyun and others, she was dressed in rags like a beggar. Bursts of the smell of blood pervaded in the house and made Su Dieyin frown.

“Master, it was Su Jiuzhou who saved us all!”

When Su Xianyun told the entire process, Su Dieyin came to Su Jiuzhou and took her pulse. She frowned more seriously.

“Xianyun, why didn't you contact me before coming back?”

Su Dieyin's voice sounded a bit cold, and the temperature in the air seemed to have dropped a few.

Xianyun was stunned, and made a bitter smile, “Master, our storage rings were lost in the Chaos Zone, so we couldn't contact you.”

Su Dieyin noticed that there were no universal rings on their fingers and sighed. She didn't know how many people had seen Su Jiuzhou who lost all cultivation.

“It's troublesome now.”

At this moment, Su Li opened her eyes after her eyelashes quivered. When she saw Su Dieyin, she seemed terrified and tried to get up to salute, but was stopped by Su Dieyin.

“You're seriously injured. No courtesy is needed.”

Su Li's eyes were flooded with appreciation as she heard the words, “Thank you, Senior!”

“Still Senior?”

Su Dieyin sounded serious and stared at Su Li, “Call me Master.”

Su Li was stunned and revealed a smile. She wasn't wrong about Su Dieyin.

“Why are you smiling?”

Su Dieyin was confused. She waved to let Su Xianyun and others leave the room and deployed a Sound-proof Matrix. Then she said in a low voice, “The second branch is not united. One part was led by me, while the other by the First Elder, Su Dingxian. If you hadn't seen by others from the second branch, it would be easy that I could save you with the resources in the name of saving Xianyun and others. However, you came back rashly!”

Su Li didn't say a word. Of course, she was clear about the stake in the second branch, so she took Su Xianyun and the other's universe rings away.

Su Dieyin sighed slightly and said slowly, “It'll be better for me to save you in the name of your master. If you are not willing to be my disciple, I will not force you. Just call me Master in front of others. I have recruited you in the second branch personally, and you have saved Xianyun and the others, so I should save you.”

Su Li revealed a bitter smile and said halfheartedly, “I appreciate your kindness, Head of the Branch. I just haven't yet ended the relationship completely with my last master, so it's a taboo for me to have a new master. I am clear about my injuries. You needn't…”

“Since you said this, I will take it as a yes to my proposal.”

Su Dieyin did not listen to Su Li's explanation. She gently pushed away Su Li's messy blood-stained hair above her eyes and smiled, “Take a bath and change your clothes. After all, you were once a practitioner of Yuanying Realm. Don't make yourself look so messy. Remember to call me Master in front of others. As for your injuries… take it easy. I will figure it out!”

Su Li watched Su Dieyin leave in a daze. At this moment, she had a misconception.

After her rebirth, whatever she did or no matter how the thing developed, she always got a positive result at last. She was hundreds of times lucky to meet good people than in her previous life.

Mo Qin's warm face flashed in Su Li's mind. Su Li lowered her gaze and muttered, “Master…”

She didn't go to Danfeng Mount to see her when she was in Yuxu Sect, though she knew clearly that she could swagger to that familiar palace.

But she was afraid to go there.

Shortly after Su Dieyin left, two teams of maids came in with clean clothes and a water bucket. They served Su Li to bathe and change clothes carefully.

Four hours later, Su Li sat in front of her dresser. She wore a purple gauzy dress that was exclusive to Su Dieyin's personal disciples. Her hair was simply tied with just a purple hairband, clean and refreshing.

Su Li was commonly dressed. Su Li's face even looked a little childish, but it showed a profound temperament.

Looking into the mirror, Su Li touched the lotus mark at the corner of her eye, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

At this time, another administrator-like old man in black walked in from the door of the back hall. He bowed deeply to Su Li and asked in a respectful voice, “Lady Jiuzhou, your courtyard has been cleaned. Will you go there now?”

Su Li turned around and revealed a gentle smile, “I am sorry to bother you. Where are Su Xianyun and the others?”

The old man in black was flattered. He couldn't help speaking with genuine respect, “Lord Xianyun and the others are in their respective courtyard, not far away from yours. Would you like to pay a visit? I will lead the way.”

Su Li nodded gratefully, “Thank you then. Can I have your name?”

The old man in black laughed bitterly. He bent over and said, “I don't deserve it. You can call me Lao Xu.”

Su Li dismissed the maids by waving a hand. When she stood up and walked through the door, she laughed, “Senior Xu, you don't need to do that. I am seriously injured, and I am just a mortal now. So, I don't deserve such courtesy.”

Hearing this, the sight of the old man in black changed instantly. But he quickly got back to normal and led Su Li out of the back hall.

A few moments later, Su Li saw the courtyard that the old man mentioned. It was built on the top of a separate peak, covering an area of a thousand hectares. The entire hilltop was flattened and decorated with all kinds of spiritual flowers and grasses. Many handymen were working in the flower-and-grass field.

Rather than a courtyard, it was a manor people at exalted status.

A thought occurred in Su Li's mind, when lights flickered in her eyes. Her physical condition would cause a lot of discontent in the second branch. If the side of Su Dingxian couldn't hold back, that would be her opportunity.

“Lady, Lord Xianyun's residence is over there.”

The old man in black pointed to a vast manor on a hilltop not far away and asked, “Shall we go over now?”

Su Li panted slightly, and her face looked tired. She shook her hand and said, “I'm a bit tired. So, I won't trouble you, Senior Xu.”

The old man in black smiled, “You are too kind, Lady. Since you have come here, I will leave. Ya'er, bring the lady to go inside and make sure that she has a good rest.”

As he said, he gave a wink to a maid beside him, and the maid called Ya'er responded immediately and brought Su Li into the manor.

After Su Li disappeared in his sight, the smile on the old man's face disappeared instantly and he left in a hurry. Soon, he arrived at the Elders' Courtyard and saw Su Dingxian without any stop. He hurried to say,

“First Elder, the disciple newly recruited by the head of the branch has a good temperament, but her injuries are a bit odd. Not as the head of the branch said, she only needed a few resources to recover. In my opinion, she has lost her cultivation completely!”

Su Dingxian leaned back on the soft chair, and his turbid eyes revealed a trace of light, “Lost her cultivation completely… Re-cultivation will need a lot of resources. According to what Su Dieyin said, this woman contained the opponent in the Chaos Zone to save Su Xianyun and the other two juniors. She must have used her ultimate combating power and got her foundation damaged, resulting in the complete loss of her cultivation.”

“Exactly!”

The old man in black submissively continued and he agreed what Su Dingxian said, “To rebuild a ruined foundation, the most likely result would possibly be no improvement after a large number of resources are used. Su Jiuzhou is extremely lucky if she can ever return to the level of ordinary disciples!

“Hohoho…”

Su Dingxian narrowed his eyes and smiled, “The sect does not keep idle people. This is an iron law set by the old ancestor! It troubled me not to find any mistakes made by Su Dieyin. Now it spares lots of efforts to find one.”

He looked up at the old man in black and his tone became cold, “Go and get your reward.”

The old man in black looked happy and retreated with his body bowing.

Su Dingxian pondered for a moment and summoned a kind-looking elder. After a confidential conversation for several hours, the kind-looking elder left the courtyard. He returned to the opposite mountain peak where Su Dieyin lived through a secret passage.

“Head, the Twelfth Elder asked to see you.”

Su Dieyin was preparing for Su Li's healing elixir at her desk when she suddenly heard the words from outside. She calmly covered the paper and other things on the desk with some stuff and said aloud, “Come in.”

Soon, the kind-looking twelfth elder came in with a worried expression. He saluted and said low, “Head, it's so quiet on the First Elder's side. Something really goes wrong. Could it be the matter of Su Jiuzhou…”

“Don't worry about Su Jiuzhou's matter. It would not be easy for that old fox Su Dingxian to have something on me.”

Su Dieyin smiled coldly. She eased her tone as she looked up, “You came just in time. Is there any news about the spiritual stone mine in the Black Stone Forest that I asked you to pry?”

Twelfth Elder didn't get any information about Su Li, but he didn't mind it either. So, he replied obediently, “People of other branches have suppressed the news. So, we haven't found out the secret of that inferior spiritual stone mine. Head, since the third, fourth, and sixth branches take a fancy to the mine, why do we need to help Su Yuanhai?”

“Twelfth Elder!”

Su Dieyin raised her voice and sharply stared at the kind-looking old man. A majestic pressure came out with that, “Cultivation means fighting against the nature law! You should know that. Will you give up just because the third, fourth and sixth branches are aggressive? Wouldn't that mean that if there are many resources in front of you and someone else goes for them, you won't fight for them?”

The Twelfth Elder's look changed slightly. He immediately lowered his head and annoyance floated over his eyes. However, his tone remained full of respect and nervousness.

“Please calm down, Head. I was confused!”

Su Dieyin coldly snorted, “Idle people don't deserve a place in my second branch. Find out the exact details about the spiritual stone mine in the Black Stone Forest within three days! Do you understand?”

“Yes, Head. I'll let my people speed up the progress right away.”

The twelfth elder bowed and left the room. He kept retreating with great trepidation till he got to the outside of the big tactical matrix. Then, he got the exaggerated expression off his face, spat with a gloomy face, and went down the mountain.

In the study, Su Dieyin was pondering when she saw the twelfth elder leave in the water mirror.

“Dieyin, since you have been suspecting that he works for Su Dingxian, why do you ask him to investigate the mine in the Black Stone Forest? If he is hiding something from us…”

A kind-looking woman turned her wheelchair and came in from the side room. She said that helplessly.

It's a trouble sometimes that she had such an excellent daughter.
