Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 504 I Can Guess

Yin Jue had been in charge of the Chamber of Commerce for many years. Now that he had made decision, he quickly calmed down and asked, “Is the descendant of the Ghost Clan you mentioned the one who made trouble in the Xue Sect...”

“Besides her, are there any other descendants of the Ghost Clan?”

Su Li asked rhetorically. Yin Jue was immediately at a loss. He quickly sorted it out, and explained it in detail.

“With limited potential, I usually don’t have much contact with the Holy Palace of Huangxing Hall. I’m not as well-informed as you think. I can only tell you about my conjecture.”

Yin Jue said. His voice was slightly lowered, and there was even a hint of doubt, “It doesn’t seem that the elders in the Holy Palace all believe in Fate Ancestor. According to my observation, I find that the people in the Holy Palace are basically divided into three factions. I call the first faction fanatics. They almost take what Fate Ancestor says as a golden rule. As long as Fate Ancestor gives orders, those lackeys will execute them without hesitation!”

“Are there many people like this?”

Su Li squinted her eyes and asked. Yin Jue shook his head, “Only a few disfavored elders supported it. And this faction should have the least number of people.”

Su Li nodded slightly.

That was right. If this faction really controlled the Huangxing Hall, then just changed the name of the force to the Palace of Fate. The Head of Huangxing Hall was not a fool. How could he allow an outsider to seize power? Su Li guessed the reason why the Head of Huangxing Hall could tolerate the existence of fanatics was just that he feared the relationship between the Fate Ancestor and the natural law.

At this time, Yin Jue continued talking, “The second faction is the neutral, with the largest number of people, including the Head of Hall. They turn a blind eye to the edict of Fate Ancestor. They neither refuse nor execute it. It seems...they don’t want to offend the descendant of the Ghost Clan.”

At this point, Yin Jue observed Su Li’s reaction secretly, but he saw that her expression was calm, and her breathing was steady. There was no change.

“Is this woman the descendant of the Ghost Clan? Or someone around the descendant of the Ghost Clan?”

He thought secretly, and guessed in his mind that he was more inclined to the latter. The Ghost Clan’s method of killing people in the Ghost Region was purely lethal, which was different from Poisonous Insect Cultivation.

“But even so, I can’t see through this woman’s cultivation. She should also be a powerful person.”

After he made a plan in his heart, Yin Jue’s eyes flashed, and he continued talking, “The third faction is the faction that dislikes the edict of the Fate Ancestor, and has been secretly seeking ways to kill the Fate Ancestor. This faction is mixed with the neutral faction. I don’t know how many people it has. However, according to my daily investigation, its force should be much larger than the fanatics faction. I even find out that several of them are inextricably related to the force “Linli Building” that emerges after the Bloody Accident of Holy Spirit... That’s all I know.”

Click...

Su Li’s knuckles rhythmically tapped on the table. After listening these words, she smiled slightly and said, “Thank you, Elder Yin, for answering my questions. Today I am just following the order. Since both of us are obeying masters’ order, you should know the helpless in it... I’ve been bothering you for a long time, so I’m leaving.”

Yin Jue’s face was calm, but the details of his actions still exposed the fact that he was greatly relieved. He quickly stood up and sent her off. He gave Su Li the universe ring prepared by the Chamber of Commerce for apology and followed her to the door. Then he hurriedly returned to the top floor attic.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With a heavy expression on his face, he closed all the gates of the hall while waving his hands, and the light of the entire hall immediately became dim.

After finishing this step, Yin Jue was still worried. And after he placed a barrier on the Isolation Tactical Matrix, his hands trembled slightly to take out an emergency carrier rune of Huangxing Hall.

“The trace of the descendant of the Ghost Clan is revealed. She appears in the Jiuli Region! This matter must be reported to the Holy Palace!”

He squeezed the golden carrier rune and looked at the round button on it, which switched between light and dark. His face was cloudy for a while, but he pressed it down after all.

Yin Jue breathed a sigh of relief when he reported the thing concerning his encounter with Su Jiuzhou to the Hall, without mentioning what he told Su Jiuzhou. Then he realized that his back was soaked.

He gasped, steaming away the sweat on his body, and the mist evaporated.

“Although the descendant of the Ghost Clan is only slightly revealed, it may be discovered by others at places that I have not found. If I conceal what I know, I will definitely be blamed by the people in the Hall. Although lunatics in the faction of fanatics are the weakest in the Holy Palace, they are much powerful than me. I can’t afford to provoke...”

Yin Jue’s heart was bitter, and it was so difficult for the weak to survive.

“My potential is exhausted, but Yutian still has the possibility of ascending. I have paved half the way to the Holy Palace for practicing. Yutian, don’t let me down...”

After Su Li left the Chamber of Commerce, she flew straight to the Jiguang Sect.

As she flew, she carefully scanned the dark golden universe ring with the divine awareness. After finding that there was nothing wrong left, she directly transferred all the compensation items into the Black Lotus Ring, and discarded the universe ring at hand.

After Su Li finished this, her eyes flashed.

“So many spiritual jades are enough for me to break through the Suiyu Tactics. During this trip, I solve the problem concerning Suiyu Tactics breakthrough, and the harvest is quite fruitful. After going to the Jiguang Sect, I will go straight back. I have been out for a long time.”

Thinking of this, she sped up.

There were 300,000 celestial stones in the stolen universe ring. At her request, the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce compensated her for 1.8 million spiritual jades, quite cheap Pojing Jade accounting for 80%.

Pojing Jade, a kind of spiritual jade that was quite useless in the cultivation circle. After being polished by it, the treasure could slightly become sharper. However, because of its high consumption, the cost performance was far lower than other treasures that enhanced magic weapons. Very few people bought it. One celestial stone could exchange ten Pojing Jades.

And this kind of spiritual jade, under Su Li’s boring attempt, produced an effect that was ten thousand times higher than other spiritual jades. After Su Li sensed her own bottleneck, she wiped out the inventory of the Huangxing Chamber of Commerce. The inventory of 1.6 million Pojing Jades was bought by her, and the remaining 170,000 celestial stones were used to purchase for even more weird spiritual jades. Those spiritual jades were extremely rare and valuable. Just a few hundred pieces costed all the remaining compensation, and even slightly exceeded.

After putting these jades in order happily, she could see that the Jiguang Sect’s mountain gate was in sight.

Su Li squinted to see Xuan An at the foot of mountain. With a wave of her sleeves, she turned into a black rainbow and fell quickly.

Xuan An knew that she was coming, and he said with joy, “Senior Sister Apprentice!”

Su Li glanced at the two elders in black clothes around him who were looking her up and down. They were quite strange to her. They should be the elders who stayed at the sect and guarded their home.

“Senior Sister Apprentice, my father has been waiting in the lobby of the sect for a long time.”

Xuan An didn’t care about what the two elders thought and said quickly.

Su Li nodded, and looked away from the two elders, “Well, let’s go.”

Seeing that Su Li was so rude and even didn’t say hello to them, the two elders in black clothes both felt angry, but they did not show any expression on the surface. They stiffly led Su Li into the sect.

The mountain gate of the Jiguang Sect was old, and the moss could be occasionally saw on the long stone steps of the mountain gate. The deeper Su Li went, the higher the concentration of nimbus was higher. Her gaze penetrated the earth and rocks, and she saw the complex Nimbus Gathering Matrix running on its own.

“This matrix is at least over twelfth grade, but it has been in disrepair for a long time, and there are many obstructions. Therefore, its effect is reduced to lower than ninth grade. The past of the Jiguang Sect seems to be interesting.”

There was a faint glimmer of light in Su Li’s eyes. She had never seen such a big ancient tactical matrix in Xue Sect before, and the grade was not as high as this.

Not long after, Su Li arrived at the lobby of the sect, accompanied by Xuan An and others.

After waiting for a long time, Xuan Jingzhou hurriedly got up and laughed, “Fellow Practitioner Su, it’s my pleasure to meet you! Come on, serve her our sect’s best Qingshen tea!”

Before he finished his words, he saw Su Li stretch out her hand to stop him. She said indifferently, “I don’t want to drink tea. Why do you invite me to come? I’m anxious to go back. It’s better to get straight to the point.”

Xuan Jingzhou’s smile became stiff, and the two elders in black clothes standing not far behind Su Li showed bad expressions, and were about to move with treasures in their hands.

“Father! Senior Sister Apprentice! You guys...”

Xuan An suddenly became anxious. He really didn’t want to see the conflict between the two close persons to him. Even though Su Li had been with him for a short time, how could he ignore her sincerity?

Xuan Jingzhou took a deep breath, and suppressed the anger in his heart. The expression in his eyes softened. He said to Xuan An, “You and the two elders can leave. I will talk with Fellow Practitioner Su alone.”

The expressions of the two elders in black clothes changed slightly, “Lord!”

Although the Lord’s cultivation was superb, Su Jiuzhou’s methods of Poisonous Insect Cultivation were mysterious and unpredictable. How could they rest assured?

“Leave now. I think since Fellow Practitioner Su has an affection for Xuan An, she wouldn’t attack me for no reason, right?”

Xuan Jingzhou ordered while looking at Su Li.

Su Li nodded.

“Of course.”

Hearing this, the elders in black clothes hesitated for a moment, and finally left with Xuan An under Xuan Jingzhou’s gradually gloomy gaze.

Now, there was no one in the hall.

Su Li waved her hand to put down the Sound-proof protection boundary, flipped her hand and took out the “Sound Acquaintance”. She said meaningfully, “I think since the Guling Gambling Battle is over, it is because of the immortal poisonous insect that Lord Xuan remembers me and invites me warmly.”

“Indeed.”

Xuan Jingzhou openly admitted it since he couldn’t keep it secret. He originally wanted to ask this woman for “Sound Acquaintance”.

“Since you have already guessed it, can you renounce this poisonous insect? Jiguang Sect is willing to pay the price to trade with you.”

A smile appeared on Su Li’s face, and she nodded slightly, “Okay, I promise you.”

In this life, she possessed the All Spirits Tactics. For her, “Sound Acquaintance” had become useless.

Xuan Jingzhou felt relieved when he heard the words, and thought that Wen Tingshan didn’t need to take force.

Su Jiuzhou was a reasonable person despite her harsh methods.

“Then Fellow Practitioner Su, what do you want Jiguang Sect to offer in exchange?”

The smile on Xuan Jingzhou’s face was more sincere, but it quickly disappeared after he heard Su Li’s next sentence.

“I don’t lack anything now.”

Su Li’s eyes were gleaming, staring at Xuan Jingzhou’s face, “Tell me...the reason why you want ‘Sound Acquaintance’, and I’ll give you the immortal poisonous insect. What do you think?”

Xuan Jingzhou’s expression darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, “Fellow Practitioner Su, sometimes it is not a good thing to know too much.”

Su Li raised her eyebrows and looked at Xuan Jingzhou, whose eyes showed inexplicable emotions. Her soft tone exploded in the hall.

“Actually, I can guess it even if you don’t tell me. It is for the sake of Linli Building, right?”
