Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 259 Su Qingtan Was Back

After that, Su Li’s life became calm though it was on the surface.

For ordinary people in Yunjing City, the disturbance only was the collapse of the walls of their old houses, but nothing else.

Su Li announced that she wouldn’t lecture any more, which caused a sensation. There were no other talented people living in the Affiliated School of the National Academy except her. No one dared to contradict her face to face because Su Li was the princess and supported by Lord Rui.

The Affiliated School of the National Academy became a private mansion, and Ling Li had no reason to come in.

Su Li spent most of time practicing in the mansion and hardly went out. But to others, she was like a girl who stayed at home and waited for a marriage.

The information of the Linli Building was delivered by Fang Yuan every night.

His mind was known when Su Li woke up. Neither she agreed nor refused. He had decided to continue to pursue her and make their relationship closer, but Su Li changed a lot during this period, which frightened him.

Yes, he was frightened to stop.

Su Li looked grim but her heart was warm before, and now even her heart became grim!

Her eyes became indifferent, as if she had no interest in anything. She was like a lonely fairy.

Fang Yuan was very upset. Although Su Li didn’t say directly, her figure had given him the answer.

She wouldn’t marry anyone in this life.

“Puff...”

In the night wind, Fang Yuan leaned on the door and exhaled. His eyes were bright and firm, and he smiled lightly.

“If you don’t get married, I will never marry anyone. I will always be with you!”

Even so, he was happy and satisfied.

Meanwhile, in the Ling Mansion.

Ling Li was sitting in the wheelchair calmly. Behind him, Ling Mo pushed the wheelchair to Qiu Meng’s room, and then Qiu Meng came out and pushed Ling Li in, leaving Ling Mo outside.

Ling Mo looked up at the sky. The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. It seemed that tomorrow would be a good day.

It was all over when he came back.

Knowing Ling Xian’s death, Ling Mo just sighed in his heart, but he could only sigh for her.

They were all capable assistants of the Master and grew up with him, but their relationship was not close.

He hated the woman who was too scheming. Although he didn’t understand what that woman thought, he knew Ling Xian was narrow-minded. Ling Xian secretly killed many people who was not in the same part with her in the cult. She had changed a little in recent years, but he still didn’t like her.

A few days ago, he knew that he had been cheated by Ling Xian with fake information when he arrived at the destination and he returned immediately. Fortunately, Miss Su Li survived, but it still caused serious trouble.

Thinking of this, Ling Mo couldn’t help sighing. If Ling Xian were alive, maybe Master could get forgiveness through her, but now she was dead and the situation became worse.

Master and Miss Su Li couldn’t get married as long as he was the Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult. But for the Ling Family, he couldn’t give up his identity.

They could never live happily together because of their identities.

And no one could help them.

In the house,

“Li, what happened? Tell me. Did you have a quarrel with Su Li?”

A quarrel?

Hearing what his mother said, Ling Li was depressed but feigned indifference. He shook his head and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, mom. I can handle it by myself.”

His behavior made Qiu Meng more worried.

Ling Li was her son. How couldn’t she see that he forced himself to smile.

A few months ago, she thought they were getting married because Ling Li went out happily every day. But Su Li suddenly announced that she wouldn’t lecture any more, and wouldn’t allow anyone to enter the Affiliate School. It was obviously rejecting Ling Li!

Something must have happened between them, but Ling Li didn’t tell her, and she couldn’t ask Su Li.

Qiu Meng said helplessly, “You have changed a lot since Su Li appeared. You didn’t go to brothels anymore. I’m glad, but I don’t want you to be hurt. If Su Li doesn’t want to marry you, you’d better forget her as soon as possible.”

Ling Li trembled slightly, with struggle flashing through his eyes.

How could he forget her?

At that time, Ling Mo came to report.

“Madam, Master, Master Qinglan comes.”

Hearing it, Qiu Meng frowned and murmured, “It was so late. Why does he come?”

Soon, Ling Qinglan opened the door and saw Ling Li with a haggard look. There was a flicker of worry in his eyes and he said with a smile, “Auntie, I heard that my cousin is in a bad mood, so, I came to see him after work.”

Qiu Meng’s eyes were lit. She came to Ling Qinglan and whispered, “You came just in time. I asked your brother, but he said nothing. You two are similar in age, so, maybe he would like to talk to you. Take him to the East Courtyard.”

“Yes, Auntie.”

Ling Qinglan nodded slightly and pushed Ling Li’s wheelchair to the East Courtyard. Ling Mo closed the door and guarded by the door.

Ling Qinglan shook his head helplessly and sighed, “Ling Mo has told me the thing. I’m not used to that there aren’t assistants around you.”

Ling Li was grim, but his expression was calm. He said with a deep voice, “It’s late. Why are you here?”

Ling Qinglan was shocked because his reaction was much calmer than that he imagined. A few months ago, Ling Li’s behavior proved that he liked Su Li very much. Now such a thing happened, and he couldn’t relieve in a short time.

Looking at Ling Li’s indifferent eyes, Ling Qinglan was worried. Maybe he was not calm...

“I have to tell you that Su Qingtan is... back.”

Hearing it, Ling Li was shocked. Even Ling Mo couldn’t help turning around.

“Su Qingtan had broken through the inborn hurdle and stably mastered the Qiyu Xuangong in half of year of practice in isolation. Now he was waiting outside the East Courtyard.”

Hearing it, Ling Li frowned, “Does Su Qingtan know something about Su Li?”

Ling Qinglan smiled, “He came out less than two hours and I brought him here directly, so, he doesn’t know anything.”

Ling Li’s expression changed a little and his eyes were full of hope. After a while, the hope in his eyes faded away.

Su Li was smarter than ordinary girls, even than him. If he made use of Su Qingtan to restore their relationship, it would be worse.

Thinking of this, Ling Li sighed, and said with a tired voice, “Qiyu Xuangong is the secret martial art of the Yinmo Cult. Su Qingtan is destined to be a follower of the Yinmo Cult since you taught him the martial art. Otherwise, even I can’t protect him. Let him come in first.”

Ling Qinglan was slightly surprised, and then he gave a glimpse at Ling Li who closed his eyes.

Did he still want to restore their relationship?

Outside the East Courtyard, Su Qingtan’s pale face which wasn’t under the sunshine for a long time showed confusion and curiosity. Why did Ling Qinglan bring him to the famous Ling General’s Mansion?

“I have broken through the inborn hurdle and stably mastered the Qiyu Xuangong. So, no matter who I meet, I’m not afraid!”

Su Qingtan thought with confidence. Half a year ago, he was just a common man who was not even a master in Jianghu, but now he had passed the acquired ninth hurdle and broken through the inborn hurdle. He became extraordinary.

He wasn’t as cowardly as before.

He could protect his second sister and give her a safe and happy life.

“Qingtan, come in.”

Hearing it, Su Qingtan trembled slightly, and then he walked into the East Courtyard without hesitation. Compared with half a year ago, his attitude towards Ling Qinglan had changed a lot.

At the beginning, Su Qingtan was forced by Ling Qinglan to join the Yinmo Cult, and he resented all the time. But he got a lot of secret information from the middle-aged guards of Ling Qinglan during the time of practice in isolation.

It turned out that his cultivation was actually at the cost of Ling Qinglan’s life!

If Ling Qinglan didn’t have another chance to escape, he would have died. Ling Qinglan’s plan was to make him take over his position in the Yinmo Cult.

Although he had selfish motives, his trust and sacrifice were a great favor to Su Qingtan. He couldn’t hate him anymore. He only had gratitude and admiration to Ling Qinglan.

Few people could give up their lives for others, at least he couldn’t. So, Ling Qinglan got his respect.

Creak—

Su Qingtan followed in with his head lowered and his heart beating faster. The atmosphere in the room was very depressing.

“Su Qingtan, this is our Hierarch. Come to give a greeting.”

Hearing Ling Qinglan’s gentle words, Su Qingtan cheered up. It was a great honor for him to see the legendary “Childe Li”.

He looked up and saw the expressionless man sitting on the wheelchair. His respectful expression immediately turned into amazement, and lasted for a long time.

“He...”

He subconsciously turned to look at Ling Qinglan. Ling Qinglan smiled and said, “Childe Li is the Third Master of the Ling Family, Ling Li!”

Hearing it, Su Qingtan opened his eyes wide and he was very surprised.

The first playboy in Yunjing City was the fearsome Hierarch of the Yinmo Cult in the martial arts circle?!

It... it... was hard to believe.

“Hierarch, I... I’m Su Qingtan!”

Su Qingtan saluted in a muddle. If others did that, Ling Li would punish him, but he only nodded gently to Su Qingtan.

“Ling Mo, tell him what happened about Su Li in the past half year.”

Hearing the name of “Su Li”, Su Qingtan was surprised that his second sister even got the attention of “Childe Li”. What happened?!

After two and a half minutes, he was shocked with a dull look because of what Ling Mo said.

How did everything change during his practice in over a half year?!
