Chapter 620 - What Was the Relationship Between You and Her
Lady Su's Revenge
Hearing this familiar voice, Xue Zhen was shocked. The first thing that she saw was the golden lightning mark between that personâs eyebrows. The mark made the feminine youthâs face even more enchanting.
âSenior Fellow Apprentice Chen? Youâ¦come back!â
Xue Zhen pretended to be calm, but she couldnât help but retreat, âSenior Fellow Apprentice, this is the Mount of Holy Girl. If you donât get the permission, you canât come here.â
The lightning mark between the youthâs eyebrows flashed. He narrowed his eyes with a smile, âThe Mount of Holy Girl? Junior Sister Apprentice, Iâve told you that you should wait for me to become the holy boy and you would be the steward of my Mount of Holy Boy. Do you forget about that?â
âChen Qing, the First Elder asked me to come here⦠Donât come near me!!â
Xue Zhen backed away in a panic until she hit the wall behind her back. She stopped and sternly reproached, âYou are not qualified to be a holy boy! We are just fellow practitioners. Why should I wait for you?â
âHahahaâ¦â
Chen Qing laughed when he heard this, âXue Zhen, youâve never talked to me like this before.â
As he said, Chen Qing grabbed Xue Zhenâs neck. His face gradually approached hers. Dangerous light flashed through his cold eyes. âYou are bold when you become Su Qingshuiâs subordinate.â
Xue Zhenâs face reddened all over for she was almost choked to death. But she couldnât prise Chen Qingâs fingers.
A new handyman who was cleaning the medicine field not far away couldnât stand it anymore. He was about to drop his hoe, but was stopped by another handyman next to him. âNewcomer, do you want to be killed? How dare you want to stop Senior Fellow Apprentice Chen? He is a personal disciple of the Grand Elder, and he will not bear any responsibilities, if you are killed by him.â
The new handyman was stunned. He immediately retreated when he heard the words, but he still did not want to be resigned to stand by.
âSteward Xue Zhen is a rare good steward. We canât do nothingâ¦â
âWhere is the holy girl?â
âShe is practicing in isolation. If someone inform the holy girl, maybe Xue Zhen will be saved.â
When the new handyman heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened. Then he threw off his hoe and ran into the side hall.
âLing San! Ling San! A disaster is imminentâ¦â
Ling Li opened his eyes and frowned. He saw what was happening outside the hall, but Su Jiuzhou was practicing in isolation. If he interrupted her⦠But if he took action, his identity would be exposed, and it would be impossible for him to be Su Jiuzhouâs side and meet her condition.
âLing San, you canât fold your hands and see Xue Zhen die. Xue Zhen gave you the chance that you can be the attendant of the holy girl. If she hadnât helped you, you would still have been a little handyman. People should be grateful to the one who helps them!â
The new handyman tried hard to persuade Ling Li who saw that Chen Qing was yanking Xue Zhenâs hair hard in his divine awareness. He finally sighed,
âFine.â
Then Chen Qing suddenly stopped smiling and his action, standing still.
Xue Zhen easily broke free from his hands in doubt. She got up and backed up a few steps. Then she quickly backed away until she retreated to the door of the main hall.
Squeakâ
The door of the main hall suddenly opened automatically. The robe with thunder pattern made Su Li seem slender and noble in the rising purple light.
Behind her, Ling Li silently followed, looking at her back. Light flashed through his eyes.
âYour Highness!â
Xue Zhen lowered her head and said apologetically in terror, âIâm sorry to interrupted your practice. Itâs my faultâ¦â
âYou really interrupted me.â
Xue Zhen suddenly trembled, biting her lips tightly to prevent her grievance from showing. Su Li twitched her mouth and patted Xue Zhen on the shoulder lightly, âIf Ling San hadnât transmitted the sound to me, would you have followed this waste of space? Why didnât you use the carrier rune I gave you?â
âAh?â
Xue Zhen was stunned, âYou are practicing. Iâ¦â
âWhen you encounter this kind of thing next timeâ¦â
Su Li walked to Chen Qing, who was unable to move. She suddenly changed her tone and smiled, âThere would be no next time.â
Chen Qing was frightened, and he quickly transmitted the sound, âSu Qingshui, what are you doing?! Iâm the personal disciple of Grand Elder Hua. I have practicedâ¦â
Su Li turned around, waving her sleeve gently!
Chen Qingâs whole body trembled in an instant, and the sound of breaking could be heard from his body. Moreover, his pubic region was broken. Then he fell off the cliff with screams.
Xue Zhen watched this scene blankly, and tears were dripping down her cheeks unknowingly.
Only this time, they were not tears of grievance, but gratitude, joy, and relief.
Her Highnessâ¦
â
In the hall, Su Li leaned on the soft couch, propping her cheek with one hand and closing her eyes to rest. Ling Li sat quietly on the chair beside the soft couch.
Xue Zhen brought some pastries and spiritual fruits, putting them down on the tea table beside her. She couldnât help taking a peek at Su Liâs side face, and then a trace of blush appeared on her face.
âHer Highness is really beautiful.â
Xue Zhen said in her heart, âIt would be great if I could serve the holy girl forever.â
âXue Zhen, you are talking nonsense.â
Xue Zhen lost in thought. Seeing Su Li wave her hand, she came to her senses and left in a panic, almost falling at the door.
When Xue Zhen disappeared at the door,
Ling Li frowned and couldnât help asking, âHave you already ended your practice a long time ago?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âSo what?â
Su Li picked up a piece of cake and tasted it with a smile, âDo you want to blame me for not taking action earlier?â
Ling Li snorted coldly, without answering.
Su Li chuckled softly, âI just want to see if the Lord of Evil is really as cold-blooded as the rumors.â
âGrand Elder Su, Iâm sorry to disappoint you.â
Ling Liâs words dripped with coldness. âBut does my character have something to do with you, Grand Elder Su?â
âNaturally, it is related to me.â
âReally? About what?â
âLord of Evil, youâve not qualified to know that yet.â
Ling Li put on a long face, holding back the anger in his heart, and he fell silent.
For the sake of the Reincarnation Mirror, he had to tolerate it!
The hall was silent. After two hours, the pastries on the tea table were eaten by Su Li, but she was still sitting on the soft couch, without any other movements.
âWhat are you doing?â
Ling Li finally couldnât help asking. Su Li glanced at him and said gently, âWait.â
âWait forâ¦Grand Elder Hua?â
Ling Li was puzzled, âYou know if you disable Chen Qing, Grand Elder Hua will come to get even with you for that. So, why do you still do that? Arenât you afraid that he will affect your plan to sneak into Fenglei Holy Sect?â
âI just need a chance.â
Light flashed through Su Liâs eyes. She smiled like a demon, staring at Ling Li, âChen Qing can be my good chance. Why donât I use him?â
Ling Li didnât understand the deep meaning of her words and mocked her coldly, âIt turns out that Xue Zhen is just your pawn.â
âYes, a pawn.â
Su Li remained her smile, but her eyes became cold, âBut she indeed gets out of the abyss of misery, doesnât she? You are also a pawn. Compared to you, she is much luckier.â
âSu Jiuzhou, shut up!â
Ling Li stared at Su Li with his red eyes.
Su Liâs words were like a knife, stabbing at his chest.
Since he was born, he had been a pawn of the Lord of Shengtian Shrine. Only he understood the pain for his mistakes and the chances he missed for the past two thousand years.
Su Jiuzhou couldnât understand it at all!
Light of remorse flashed through Su Liâs eyes. But she made a cold snort on the surface. Then she turned her head and stopped talking.
âUh, I come untimely.â
Perceiving a change of the atmosphere in the main hall, Xue Zhen said cautiously, âYour Highness, the First Elder wants to see you.â
âOh? Finally, it comes!â
Light flashed through Su Liâs eyes. She got up and stepped down the soft couch. Ling Li looked at her back and took a deep breath. Finally, he got up and followed.
âYour Highness, Iâm sorry. Because of me, you are in trouble.â
Xue Zhen bowed her head guiltily.
Su Li patted her on the shoulder, âTake good care of the mount. I will be back soon.â
Before Xue Zhen could respond, Su Li flied away.
Xue Zhen nodded blankly, looking at Ling Li who was flying behind Su Li. She muttered, âIsnât Ling San a handyman disciple? Why does he follow the holy girl to see the First Elder?â
In the Elder House, the embattled Elder Zheng was wandering outside the door of the Elder Doctor.
âFirst Elder, are you looking for me?â
Su Li walked over calmly. Ling Li lowered his head and followed behind her.
âFinally, you turn up!â
Elder Zheng glanced at Ling Li quizzically, but he didnât think much about him. He took Su Li into the study and asked in surprise and annoyance, âChen Qing⦠The bones of his whole body are broken, and he loses his cultivation completely. You⦠You will be in a big trouble!â
âHe broke into my mount without permission. According to the sectâs discipline, even if I kill him, I wonât be found guilty.â
Su Li looked straightforward and confident, making Elder Zheng feel angry but amused.
After all, the young people often did things regardless of the consequences.
âWell, do you know who the backer of Chen Qing is? It is Grand Elder Hua. There are only two Grand Elders in Fenglei Holy Sect. They are Grand Elder Hua and Grand Elder Nan respectively. This time the personal disciple of Grand Elder Hua was crippled by you. How could he not be angry? The reason why he hasnât looked for you up to now is precisely because Chen Qingâs action is unjustifiable and Grand Elder Hua is stopped by Grand Elder Nan.â
It suddenly clicked. No wonder she waited so long but no one came over. It turned out that Grand Elder Hua was stopped by Grand Elder Nan.
Seeing that Su Li caught on, Elder Zheng couldnât help but give a wry smile. He thought Su Li pretended to be obtuse.
âHowever, you donât have to worry too much. Grand Elder Nan is always at odds with Grand Elder Hua. If it were not for the ancestral discipline, they would not be able to live together peacefully. Chen Qing has always been lawless, and even I couldnât discipline him. Grand Elder Nan has hated him a long time ago. She must be happy since you disabled Chen Qing, and she will help you settle this matter.â
At this point, Elder Zheng frowned, âThe matter of Divine Thunders is the only troublesome thing.â
Su Li was originally directed at the Divine Thunder, so she raised her brows slightly and asked, âTroublesome? Does Grand Elder Hua have the Divine Thunders?â
âJust one of the two.â
Elder Zheng smiled bitterly, âFenglei Holy Sect has two Divine Thunders. Grand Elder Nan owns the Divine Thunder of Fire and Grand Elder Hua owns the Divine Thunder of Metal. Things are getting pretty hotâ¦â
Su Li frowned and was about to speak, but suddenly, a gust of wind blew in the study. As the wind died away, Grand Elder Nan appeared, and she grabbed Su Liâs hand.
âFollow me to see the Divine Thunder!â
As she said, she took Su Li to jump into the void and disappeared. Elder Zheng was stunned.
âWhatâ¦â
When Elder Zheng came to his senses and saw Ling Li, he couldnât help but gossip, âYou⦠Whatâs the relationship between you and Su Qingshui?â
Ling Li, ââ¦â
