Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 206 Getting on Board

Qu Qingning wailed along the road. Fang Mu, with doubts in his heart, looked at the man who became more handsome after the bath.

Wasn’t it over? Did something strange happen over there?

Fang Mu was watching closely at the man who finally couldn’t help but get angry, “Not the way you think!”

“Same talk as Brother Qingning.” Fang Mu murmured as he touched his chin. The man looked even more embarrassed instantly.

“The messy hair and beard were removed by Brother Qingning. You are much younger. I just didn’t expect that you looked like a man in his thirties. Why do you want to die at such a young age? I really don’t understand.”

Fang Mu shook his head and poisoned the man again, and then carried the man upstairs.

The man glanced at Qu Qingning and Yin Xuetong who were at odds with each other in the corner of the first floor. Qu Qingning was explaining impatiently and sweating. It made the man feel warm.

The man could not help missing his woman. The more he thought about it, the more he felt regrettable.

After all the hardships he had gone through, he hadn’t seen her yet. How could he be willing to die?

He really did not want to die.

The man was Qingning, and her name is Ningqing. Even the name was so similar. Maybe he needed to die another day...

The man was confused and Fang Mu was still advising him, “Sir, be frank and face the music. Otherwise Su Li will never be easy on you.”

“The building is our base in Yunjing. After she brought you here, you only have two choices, to die or join us.”

The man knew that he had tried to assassinate Su Li. Although Su Li escaped the death, he was a great threat to Su Li before. Would Su Li agree to recruit him?

Maybe Fang Mu thought the man was miserable. He kept talking all the way, “Sir, look at me. I was leading a hard life one year ago. I joined the military and almost died, just like an ant on the battlefield. Finally I was reduced to the prisoner camp and saved by Miss Su Li... We had an agreement. Maybe our goals are not the same, but we can help and support each other. Wait until the day when we have the ability to avenge ourselves!”

Fang Mu was lost in the memory, only to find that he seemed to talk too much. He smiled and carried the man into the attic. Anyway, this person was about to die. It wouldn’t matter if he talked a little bit more with a dying person.

Fang Mu did not know that it was the “agreement” he had just mentioned that made the man’s pupils shrink and changed his thoughts quietly.

At this moment, Su Li had ordered Fang Yuan to go back to practice, and she was alone on the top floor. Fang Mu put the man down and closed the door to leave. The destiny of the man would be up to Su Li’s mood and the choice of his own.

There was a golden light flashing in Su Li’s eyes. She had determined that this man did not wear a false appearance. She picked up the cyan sword on the table sent by Fang Mu, and stroked the blade with her fingertips.

The fingertips slammed gently, and the sword rang slightly like the voice of the dragon. This was a peerless sword that was better than the Hongyuan Sword brought by Ling Qinglan before.

“You are from the spiritual circle.” Su Li said abruptly, which disturbed the mind of the man who was going to negotiate with Su Li.

“How do you know that...”

The man spoke with reluctance. If the woman knew who he was and informed his sect, he would have a rough end.

“You seem nervous.”

Su Li smiled and stared at the long sword. She said without hesitation, “Rest assured. I just inferred from this sword. With the worldly forging technology, it is not easy to acquire such a sword. I am afraid that there is only one or two in the treasury of Dahan Country. You look like an outsider and can only come from the spiritual circle.”

Su Li looked up with interest and smiled, “Why? You seem to have changed your mind. Aren’t you going to keep silent until you die?”

“I don’t want to die.”

The man turned his gaze with difficulty, and saw the jade hairpin lying quietly on the table. “As you know, I still have someone waiting for me, so I can’t die...”

Su Li raised her eyebrows lightly, and did not continue to ask questions. She needed to clear her thoughts and contemplated how to attack Wu Lirong by the hands of this man.

It went without doubt that it was Wu Lirong who tried to kill her. She did not know how Wu Lirong was related to this person, but fortunately, Wu Lirong did not side with the forces of the spiritual circle. It was just a loner.

“I’ve heard that you and your men have made an agreement, so can I make an exchange with you on my life?”

The man couldn’t help but speak it out. Since he changed his mind, he naturally didn’t want to be killed by Su Li, and immediately began to actively look for opportunities.

Su Li raised her eyebrows and laughed, “Sir, your destiny is clearly in my hands. How can you make an exchange? If you want to make an exchange with me, that’s fine. How about working for me for ten years?”

The man’s pupils narrowed, “Do you dare to hire me?”

“Why not?”

Su Li lazily changed to a sitting position and continued, “You should know better than me what the poison circle is capable of. If you still want to kill me, you need to consider the risk of being poisoned for the second time, the third time... If I lose my patience, I will put an end to you eventually.”

The man went silent. Su Li was right, but as long as he moved fast enough, Su Li would also be hurt... However, he changed his mind now and dispelled the notion to kill Su Li.

That didn’t make sense, because he knew that Wu Lirong would not keep her promise. If there was a better choice, why would he circle the old sinkhole?

“I didn’t mean to attack you. It was Wu Lirong...”

The man described the previous transaction with Wu Lirong. Su Li heard the name “Ningqing” and couldn’t help but feel her heart popping. Such a coincidence! In her mind, Ningqing had always been alone. Every time her husband was mentioned, her temper would change.

Evidence was required, and all thoughts lingered in her heart and fell silent again.

“Wu Lirong is still alive...”

Su Li rubbed her chin and suddenly looked up and asked an unrelated question, “What’s your name?”

The man was stunned and didn’t understand why Su Li asked this question. Since he had come to a dead end, he didn’t plan to hide it any longer. Without hesitation, he told her his name.

“Wen Tingshan.”

Su Li’s expression suddenly changed, and she blurted out, “You are the Wen Tingshan of Wanjian Sect?”

“If you know Wanjian Sect, you must be one of the spiritual circle.”

Bitterness appeared on Wen Tingshan’s face. This time he lost the gambling. He was wanted by Wanjian Sect in the spiritual circle and martial arts circle. He ran away and was seriously injured. Finally, he ended up in the secular world.

He didn’t anticipate that he was ensnared by the spiritual circle.

No one would not be tempted by the rewards of Wanjian Sect. Su Li was a Young Master. Therefore, she was more easily attracted by that prize.

At this moment, Wen Tingshan did not know that something else was going on in the minds of Su Li.

In the previous life, Wen Tingshan was the master of Wanjian Sect. He was on the top of the food chain in the spiritual circle, and Su Li was just nobody struggling at the bottom of the spiritual circle. Wen Tingshan was someone she looked up to.

What she had done should not affect the spiritual circle. It meant that Wen Tingshan had been in a miserable condition in the previous and present life. Not only was he seriously injured, but he was worse than a beggar.

This was a big fish that she could not afford to let it go.

Su Li answered decisively, “Wen Tingshan, let’s talk about the agreement. You shall work for me for ten years and I shall help you tide over the difficulties and reunite with Ningqing. If you agree these terms, the agreement will take effect immediately.”

Wen Tingshan was completely stunned.

Did she know what she was talking about? She was unmoved by these tempting rewards of the Wanjian Sect?

Or it was because of her background and possession, she belittled the rewards of the Wanjian Sect?

Wen Tingshan was totally confused in mind.

“You can think about it here, and I’ll come back to you after one day and one night.”

Su Li knew the importance of patience, and she walked past Wen Tingshan.

The moment she passed by Wen Tingshan, Wen Tingshan immediately felt that the paralysis receded like a tide, and he was able to move around.

He turned back and saw Su Li close the door, disappearing out of his vision.

Didn’t this woman worry about that he was just disguising to cover his murderous intention?

However, he did not even notice that she had applied the detoxification method, and if he hit improperly, he might die in just a second.

Undoubtedly, he was daunted by Su Li’s poisoning skills.

To run away and continue to investigate alone, or stay... That is a question.

For a whole day and night, no one came to bother him, not even a food delivery man.

Wen Tingshan looked like a sculpture and kept motionless in the house. When he was basking in the morning light next day, his eyes lighted up instantly. Life was just a gamble. Why not have another one?

At this moment, Su Li opened the door. She was wearing a plain skirt. She removed the Nothing Unusual, and waltzed in like a fairy. With delicate skin and an exquisite face, she was the most beautiful artwork in the world.

Wen Tingshan turned around and was astonished by this.

This weird and evil girl was so gorgeous...

Was there such a perfect woman in the world?

Although he didn’t want to admit it, Su Li was indeed much more beautiful than Qing. But he cared no one but Ningqing. Su Li was just a beautiful art to him.

“It seems that you’ve figured it out.”

Su Li’s hair was stirred by the wind. She did not withdraw Nothing Unusual for a long time. She needed some fresh air. It was also a chance to test out Wen Tingshan. She was happy with the result.

“Yes.”

Wen Tingshan recollected himself and his tone became calm and firm. “From this moment on, I will consider myself a member of the Linli Building and I hope you can keep your promise.”

Su Li smiled, “Very good. Finally, we have a senior in the longevity realm. Give me your hand. I will heal your injury first, and then discuss other matters.”

Wen Tingshan was astonished that a master of poison would learn the methods of medical circle. Poisoning masters of the spiritual circle had always been hostile to practitioners of the medical circle. Su Li was obviously beyond his cognition.
