Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 263 Reunited

In the dark night, Ling Qinglan saw a beautiful woman in plain white clothes. She was looking at him strangely. She looked perturbed, and her eyes shined.

Ling Qinglan picked his eyebrows. Then he came over and said softly, “It’s not peaceful in Yunjing City in the middle of the night. What are you doing here alone?”

The beautiful woman didn’t answer. She just looked at him in a daze.

Ling Qinglan felt more and more strange. He looked at her carefully, and then his expression changed a little. He recognized her. She was Qu Lu, the starring girl of the Hongyan House, wasn’t she?

Usually in the brothel, Qu Lu was very gorgeous and particularly charming, but now she was so plain that he almost didn’t recognize her. However, after the auction, her identity of Lady Qu in the Hehuan Sect had been exposed. Why did she suddenly appear here tonight?

Thinking of it, Ling Qinglan smiled and said tentatively, “Lady Qu, you come here so late tonight. What can I do for you?”

Qu Lu was slightly shocked, but when she thought of the admonition of the Linli Building, she was slightly gloomy. She took a deep breath and said nervously, “Yi Mo.”

“...You!”

Ling Qinglan’s complexion changed dramatically. Without saying a word, he stunned her and took her to the East Courtyard of Ling Mansion.

After a gust of breeze, there were two more people in the East Courtyard. Ling Mo was puzzled when he saw Ling Qinglan holding a woman. Ling Li frowned and was ready to ask.

“Don’t blame me. This woman knows my real identity, so I brought her back.”

Ling Qinglan explained and put Qu Lu down. He doubted that her cultivation was acquired ninth hurdle. If she had wanted to escape from him, he would have done more. But it was not hard for him.

However, she didn’t struggle at all just now, just like knowing that he would not hurt her. Was...?

“Is she an old friend...”

Ling Qinglan’s eyes twinkled and stared at Qu Lu’s face, but he could not see that she had something to do with himself.

“You will interrogate her. Since she knows you, she may know more about the destruction of the Yi Family.” Ling Li said lightly and got up, “I’m going to prepare Wudao Stone. This study is for you for the time being. Ling Mo, let’s go.”

Ling Li left the study soon. Ling Qinglan was shocked for a moment. Then he shook his head and laughed. After Su Li’s experience, Ling Li was more decisive than before.

“Eh-hem...”

Lying on the rattan chair, Qu Lu coughed and opened her eyes blankly. Seeing that she was in the same room with Ling Qinglan, and there was no other person, she relaxed and looked at Ling Qinglan’s face infatuatedly with yearning and fascination.

Ling Qinglan snorted spontaneously and said indifferently, “There are only you and me here. You don’t have to play dumb. Tell me who told you my real name?”

Qu Lu was stunned and surprised. But when she heard Ling Qinglan’s query, her eyes were full of tears. She murmured, “Yi Mo, you are Yi Mo. Do you remember that you have a sister?”

A sister?

Hearing this, Ling Qinglan was shocked, but he pretended to be calm and said contemptuously, “This is nonsense! There is only one son in the Yi Family. How can I have a sister? If you still talk nonsense, don’t blame me for not pitying you and punishing you!”

Hearing Ling Qinglan’s merciless words, Qu Lu was very panicked. Was it because the tragedy hit him so hard that he forgot her completely?

“No, Mo... How could you forget me? I’m your Sister Xue!” Qu Lu said.

Qu Lu couldn’t believe it and couldn’t help holding Ling Qinglan from behind. Her tears were like beads of broken thread dropping down. She said, “Do you also forget...the agreement at the lakeside on that snowy night?”

After saying, Qu Lu felt that her shoulders were suddenly pinched. She raised her head blankly and found that Ling Qinglan had already turned around and looked at her pleasantly. His expression was as soft as spring wind.

“Sister Xue, it’s really you!”

Qu Lu looked at Ling Qinglan blankly. After a while, she finally smiled and wiped her tears. She felt wronged and said, “I haven’t seen you for many years. You even test your sister.”

Ling Qinglan was a little ashamed. He said, “I don’t want to do like this either, but now the situation in Yunjing City is unknown, and I can only do like this. The agreement between you and me is only known to us. Even if you were not Sister Xue, you would be someone who is very close to Sister Xue, so that I can recognize you confidently.”

Qu Lu touched her face and sighed softly, “There is a reason for my appearance. No wonder you dare not recognize me.”

“Sister Xue, how can you be related to the Hehuan Sect?”

Ling Qinglan frowned and asked.

Qu Lu gazed at Ling Qinglan, who had striking appearance. With a smile, she told about what happened to her in the Hehuan Sect in those years. As for what happened to meeting Mr. Li, she didn’t mention it at all.

“Damn! The old witch Ye Tian is so vicious. She learned the secret skill to harm others. How can she treat you like this?! I’m going to struggle with her right now!”

Ling Qinglan’s eyes were full of tears, and he was furious. He wanted to rush to the Hehuan Sect and kill Ye Tian.

Qu Lu immediately grabbed Ling Qinglan and comforted him, “Never! Although your Yinmo Cult has a huge influence, the Hehuan Sect is also a powerful sect. If you struggle with the Hehuan Sect rashly, doesn’t it expose yourself in vain and provide the royal family with a chance to seek loopholes? Moreover, the Hongchen Powder in my body has been dispelled, and my identity has been quietly removed from the Hongyan House. In the future, people of the Hehuan Sect will not find me.”

The gentle voice of sister, like the murmuring stream, smoothed Ling Qinglan’s mood of furious. He took a deep breath and became calm. His eyes shined with sagacity.

“Sister Xue, it is said that there is no medicine to save the Hongchen Powder. How did you escape the control of the Hehuan Sect?”

Ling Qinglan was confused although he no longer doubted Qu Lu’s identity. She was trapped in the Hehuan Sect for nine years. How could she suddenly escape with her ability?

Hearing the words, Qu Lu trembled slightly and unconsciously thought of Su Li’s orders.

“Although the Linli Building has cooperated with the Yinmo Cult, there are some contradictions recently. The relationship is not the same as before. Don’t blame me for being ruthless if you dare to reveal information of the Linli Building.”

Mr. Li had always been mysterious. If he became ruthless, what would he do?

Qu Lu thought of her first meeting with Mr. Li and shuddered. Mr. Li always found every secret attack and every feeler. Although Mr. Li was kind usually, if she disobeyed the agreement, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Sister Xue, what are you thinking? Why are you in a cold sweat?”

Ling Qinglan took out a handkerchief and wiped Qu Lu’s sweat. Qu Lu came to her sense with horror. She reluctantly smiled and whispered,

“Mo, although I would like to tell you everything, I had an agreement with the person who saved me. I cannot disclose all the information about him. I can only tell you that at the end of last year, I seized the opportunity at the auction and successfully escaped from the Hehuan Sect, so I had the opportunity to meet you.”

Ling Qinglan frowned. Because Qu Lu’s words were very straight forward, he was embarrassed to continue to ask. It was very difficult to find out his real identity and the identity of the Yinmo Cult for that mysterious person who helped secretly.

“You are tired. Let me help you to have a rest. I will deal with your identity.”

They left the study and came to the courtyard where Ling Qinglan lived. Qu Lu smiled and smoothed Ling Qinglan’s brow. She said gently, “You don’t have to worry about me. I have endured nine years. Now it’s more careful to meet you. The senior passed me the secret method of the disguise skill, and I will follow you secretly.”

Then, Qu Lu didn’t say much more. She turned around and walked into the room.

Ling Qinglan looked serious. Who helped Sister Xue? He even passed on the rare secret method of the disguise skill in the martial arts circle.

Thinking for a moment, Ling Qinglan subconsciously thought of a person.

Would it be him?

Ling Qinglan pursed his lips slightly. His life was saved by him. If sister was also saved by him, he really did not know how to repay such a great kindness.

Even if he detoxified the uncommon Hongchen Powder, he must pay the price.

Thinking about it, Ling Qinglan shook his head and sighed.

It was his guess. Since Sister Xue was unwilling to say, he couldn’t force her. It was lucky to come back safely for her. There was no need to be so inquisitive.

...

After Qu Lu’s incident, Su Li received information from Fang Yuan every day. And several days later, she perceived it was unnormal.

She had been cooperating with the Yinmo Cult to find the Wanjian Sect, but no clue had been found!

“It’s impossible... Unless... The Wanjian Sect has cooperated with the local forces in Yunjing City, hiding in places that we can’t find.”

Fang Yuan analyzed calmly and detected the abnormality obviously.

“In that case, there is no need to waste time.” Su Li thought for a moment and suddenly said, “You’re going to contact someone.”

What?

Fang Yuan was stunned and raised his head. Was there any other plan for Su Li?

On the next day, Fang Yuan, who was disguised, sat on the second floor of the unknown teahouse and drank tea leisurely. He silently counted the hours. After a while, a man in bamboo hat suddenly sat down in front of him. Without saying anything, the man picked up the wine and drank it. Then he tapped on the table slightly and said,

“What a good drink!”

Fang Yuan smiled and replied, “Drink together.”

The man in bamboo hat immediately lowered his head and said in a low voice, “Protector Fang, I’m here to salute you.”

“Is there anything unusual about the royal family?”

Fang Yuan said so directly that he obviously believed in the man in bamboo hat. If Fang Yuan lifted bamboo hat, he would find that this person was the Dongfang He, who was captured at the auction on that day!

Over the past few months, the effect of the secret skill on Dongfang He had not weakened but became more powerful. He had been completely loyal to Su Li and even cultivated more members to inquire for information for Su Li.

All unpresentable information of Xisan Hall in the Imperial Palace was told Su Li by Dongfang He.

Hearing Fang Yuan’s inquiry, Dongfang He immediately explained the recent events in detail.

After a long time, Dongfang Rui left silently. Fang Yuan was alone and very gloomy.
