Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 185 Buried the Hatchet

Ling Li was in the study of the Ling House. Ling Mo suddenly came in and reported, “Master, Ling Qinglan is coming!”

Ling Li stopped writing and put the file away. He raised his eyebrows and thought, “I just sent Ling Xian to investigate him, and then he comes here. Does he do it on purpose?!”

When he thought of this, Ling Qinglan pushed the door and came in with a smile. That smile was completely different from the unapproachable smile as usual.

When Ling Li saw Ling Qinglan, he was in a daze for a moment... He felt that Ling Qinglan seemed to change much... However, he didn’t know how to say it.

Ling Qinglan sat down in front of Ling Li. He was silent for a moment and then suddenly said, “I’m sorry.”

Ling Li felt weird in his heart. He said with a spurious smile, “Apologizing first is not your temper. Tell me what guilty things you have done recently.”

Ling Li knew that Ling Qinglan was ready to show his hand. Otherwise, he wouldn’t come here.

Ling Qinglan heard him and took a deep breath. What he said was remarkably original and forceful. He said, “I gave Qiyu Xuangong to Su Qingtan!”

“What?!”

Ling Mo was shocked at the door. He looked at Ling Qinglan unbelievably. Did he want Su Qingtan to die?

Ling Li closed his lips tightly. He looked serious and said, “Don’t you know that ordinary people must die if they practice it? In that year, even Ling Mo could not control himself. I forcibly gave him energy, and it cost me three years’ cultivation!”

Ling Li took a deep breath and restrained his anger. He asked, “How long has Su Qingtan practiced?”

He didn’t care about others’ life and death. However, it was Su Qingtan! Su Li’s Eldest Brother! If Su Qingtan died, he didn’t know what the quirky girl would do!

Ling Qinglan heard the question and smiled. He said, “Su Qingtan has practiced thirteen days. He has reached the acquired seventh hurdle now and was in his sober senses.”

Ling Li was stunned and was not so angry for a while.

Thirteen days!

Su Qingtan changed from a person without cultivation into a person reaching the acquired seventh hurdle. That’s to say, he went through the most dangerous stage restfully rather than was off his trolley.

Ling Li did not understand at first.

He met Su Qingtan before. He just looked handsome. His aptitude was ordinary. Should such a person be destined to practice Qiyu Xuangong?

He didn’t believe it.

At this moment, Ling Qinglan suddenly told them the reason at a stretch, “I suppressed him by the ice toxin. He is extremely calm and doesn’t have any desire all the time. When he reaches the inborn second hurdle of Qiyu Xuangong, what he practices is the rare and outstanding practice method without any drawback! Our cult will have one more excellent senior!”

Clatter!!

Ling Li was shocked and furious. He suddenly stood up and grabbed Ling Qinglan’s wrist. The files on the table were scattered to the ground. Ling Li shouted, “Are you crazy? I helped you break through the inborn hurdle and suppress the ice toxin with great difficulty. But you can’t wait to die!”

At the moment, Ling Li was like a furious king. His formidable energy raised sleeves which made sound. However, Ling Qinglan smiled broadly. Rumors in Jianghu said that Ling Li was ruthless and selfish. He regarded value over everything, even over human.

In fact, Ling Li also tried to be a ruthless person. However, even if he pretended well, he couldn’t deceive everyone, just like now.

Thump, thump, thump...

Ling Li was in a daze when he felt the strong pulse of Ling Qinglan. It was not like the tendons and vessels that had been eroded by the ice toxin.

“Are you tricking me?!” Ling Li shouted.

Then Ling Li raised his eyebrows and became clam instantly. He sat back in the wheelchair and crossed his hands. He said, “I see. You came to trouble me deliberately today. Go on!”

Ling Qinglan sat straight and seriously said, “What I said today is the truth. Su Qingtan is still in the Supreme Judiciary. I took the Lijue Pill in order to help him.”

Ling Li clenched his fists tightly without saying any words. He knew that Ling Qinglan hadn’t finished yet. No matter how complicated he was, he was prepared to make everything clear with Ling Qinglan in the end!

Ling Mo looked lightly gloomy. Just hearing its name, Lijue Pill, he knew that it was not a good elixir.

“The Lijue Pill can prolong people’s life by one hundred days. After that, people will die without doubt. I took it in order to have enough time to arrange a perfect practice environment for Su Qingtan. However, an accident happened beyond my expectation. The efficacy of the Lijue Pill disappeared only after thirteen days...”

Ling Li unclenched his fists and curled his lips. It was beyond thirteen days. This guy was still alive.

“Is it a fake elixir?”

Ling Mo could not help but ask and frown. If it was a fake elixir that could save life for thirteen days without sequelae, it should be a miracle elixir.

“No! It is real!” Ling Qinglan said. He remembered what happened on the hunting ground that day. A sense of fear flashed through in his eyes. He said, “I tried to avoid fighting after taking the Lijue Pill. However, on the third day of autumn hunting, the Lihua Yin-Yang Fan was destroyed.”

Destroyed?

Ling Li’s pupils shrank slightly. No wonder he did not see that he waved his fan today. Even the powerful weapon that could save his life was destroyed. What did Ling Qinglan experience on the hunting ground?

“Eight inborn seniors embattled to kill us!”

Ling Qinglan said with a cold tone, “Second Brother Ling and I didn’t even have the qualifications to perish together. The level of embattling is far beyond my ability. I can only use the Lihua Yin-Yang Fan to get a breathing spell for several minutes. Finally, I detonated the tactical matrix and tried to blast an escape way for Second Brother Ling. Unfortunately, it...”

Ling Qinglan had a forced smile and said, “The tactical matrix even didn’t crack. Second Brother Ling and I could only wait for die.”

“What happened later?”

Ling Mo couldn’t help but ask with tension. He could almost imagine that Ling Qinglan and Ling Ping were so hopeless at that time. Ling Li also looked serious. His Second Brother didn’t tell him this event. If Ling Qianlan hadn’t mentioned it, he would have been kept in the dark.

“Later, a young man in a cloth gown appeared. He looked as young as Ling Li.”

Ling Qinglan stared at Ling Li, who was stunned, and said clearly, “He broke the tactical matrix by himself. And he killed three persons instantly! The remaining five persons fled in panic. He killed all of them by an extremely strange method! We... survived inexplicably.”

Ling Mo was stunned when hearing that. The young man who was as young as the master killed eight seniors of the inborn realm easily by himself, didn’t he?!

Should there be a person who was as powerful as the master in the world?

“Who is he?”

Ling Li frowned. A variety of thoughts occurred to him. He said, “If what you said is true, our Ling Family owes two lives to the young man. The kindness is beyond our ability to repay him. If he threatens us with that...”

“I know what you want to say. Listen to me first.”

Ling Qinglan interrupted Ling Li. He continued to say, “I met the young man before. He called himself “Mr. Li”. His whereabouts are mysterious. Few people know his real face. I’m not sure if what I see is his real face.”

Then Ling Qinglan told them that he went to the Linli Building. Ling Li was silent while listening to him.

Should there be a person who helped others and asked for nothing in return in the world?

Ling Li felt very suspicious in his heart. However, he couldn’t refute Ling Qinglan’s words. The young man knew all the exact details of them and the current situation in Yunjing. He continuously saved the members of the Ling Family and deliberately left the ears of beasts to help Brother Ling win the first prize. However, he never asked for something.

This person was really weird.

He would not have imagined that the so-called “Mr. Li” was Su Li. “The young man” in Ling Qinglan’s description let Ling Li consider that “Mr. Li” a mysterious peer whose cultivation and temper were both unfathomable.

“Mr. Li also said that there was an agreement between you and Miss. Su Li.”

Ling Qinglan said with an ashamed look, “It’s my fault. If I had believed you firmly, I would have not taken the Lijue Pill.”

“No, it’s my fault!” Ling Li said with a deep voice. His tone was sincere and complicated. He said, “Needless to say, if I had explained it to you, you would never have misunderstood.”

Ling Qinglan smiled and said, “Well, we both made mistakes. Since this matter has passed, let’s forget it with a smile. After all, I’m still Qinghu. The Hierarch should not be in conflict with the Deputy Hierarch.”

Looking at Ling Qinglan who said that with ease, Ling Li finally let it go. He couldn’t help but smile and abuse, “You naughty boy. You play the nice person all the time. Where is my prestige?”

“Hahaha...”

They burst into a cheerful laughter in the room.

Then, Ling Li suddenly thought of something. He weirdly said, “You said that Mr. Li asked me to fulfill the promise to Su Li, didn’t you?”

Ling Qinglan answered in a daze, “Yes. The branch of the Kurong tree has gotten. What...”

Ling Li scratched his head and said, “Does he misunderstand the agreement between Su Li and me?”

What?

Ling Qinglan was confused. Ling Mo intervened at the moment. He said, “The agreement between the master and Miss. Su Li is that the master must get the Full Moon and Heart Strings as well as the branch of the Kurong tree first, and then Miss. Su Li would cure you.”

Ling Qinglan heard it and was stunned.

It turned out that even Ling Li’s ambition of getting the Full Moon and Heart Strings was because of the agreement with Su Li?!

But...

“Are you going to say that Su Li looks kind and innocent, aren’t you? And she will never raise such a claim, right?”

Ling Li was gnashing his teeth and said, “Don’t be fooled by her weak appearance! In fact, she is heartless to entrap others!”

Ling Qinglan was confused. He met Su Li several times, especially in the carriage that day. Su Li’s performance could be a standard of the wife that all men dreamed about. How could Ling Li say that she was “heartless”?

However, since Ling Li said that, it could only be said that Su Li’s acting was so good that he couldn’t see through her. When he thought that he still needed Su Li to detoxify the ice toxin, he couldn’t help but worry.

“Well, since your body is under the most suitable conditions for detoxification, I will visit her. I will owe more favors to her at the worst.” Ling Li suddenly said helplessly. However, he took on clothes as fast as he could. In a twinkling of an eye, he entered the inner room and said, “Ling Mo, arrange it for me. The location will be in the Moyin Street!”
