Chapter 414 Savior!

Bam!

After a dark light flashed on the surface of Black Lotus Ring, a jade strip freshly made was flung out by Black Lotus.

Su Li took it and heard Black Lotus’ proud voice, “I was once the most precious treasure of the clan. I know much more than the Reincarnation Mirror do. That kind of bumpkin. Just for the martial arts that I keep in my memory, that dumb ass is far behind me!”

After bragging about himself, Black Lotus finally felt that he had earned some respect. Then he continued, “This is a practicing plan that I tailored for you. However, even an evildoer like you has limited energy, so you must make your choices.”

Su Li nodded, “Never bite off more than you can chew. I know this.”

After a glance over the profound secret methods in the jade strip, Su Li raised her head, pondered for a moment, and asked suddenly, “How far could you recover yourself by a hundred soul stone pieces?”

Black Lotus was dumbfounded, and understood Su Li’s meaning with two eyes shining, “I was injured ten thousand years ago. So, my spirit is only equivalent to the soul of a mortal. If you could bestow all the rest soul stones on me, I would never worry about falling into a deep sleep again!”

“Get to the point.”

Su Li frowned. For a long time, Black Lotus kept silent and finally he gritted his teeth, saying, “When your cultivation is more advanced, I can show you a place, where you can promptly enhance your Ghost Clan-specific talent. Your weak body of evil ghost will be recovered to a normal level within a year! And the genuine talent for a body of evil ghost will be unlocked!”

Su Li raised her eyebrows without saying a word, and she seemed to be estimating whether Black Lotus’ words were true or false.

Black Lotus finally saw the hope, and became anxious immediately, “Everything I told you is true! There is no need for me to lie to you!”

“So, I’ll trust you for once.”

Su Li suddenly spoke after a while of silence, throwing the bag of the soul stone pieces into the Black Lotus Ring.

Black Lotus was so delighted but wondering at the same time why Su Li became so nice to him this time. Could it be that jade strip that he gave to her?

He realized soon that he was overthinking this.

“Black Lotus, recuperate well. If you can’t take me to that place when you are fully recovered, I will beat you back to your original state with the Divine Thunder of Water. I can afford the loss of those soul stones.”

Black Lotus’ face was darkened.

He knew that it’s not so easy to get things from Su Li.

“Holy mother, this time cost me so much. I hope that the place has not been discovered by Human Clan yet, alas...”

With a sigh, the Black Lotus Ring became silent, for his soul force was too weak. It would take a lot of time for him to absorb the soul stones.

Su Li looked at the naked ring finger and glared at the air for a while before she finally turned her attention back to the jade strip.

Su Li glanced it and could not help but sigh with emotion.

Black Lotus liked to brag, but he was right about the secret practice methods stored in the Black Lotus Ring. Any single method of them would bring bloody chaos to the world.

“Cuixing Method, a body refining swordsmanship of the pneuma and blood school!”

“Cuiyue Method, a boxing art of the pneuma and blood school!”

“Wuding Step, a holy footwork in close combat of the pneuma and blood school!”

“Liufeng Method, a bodily movement of a wind school!”

All the four practice methods that Black Lotus gave her were the best works from different schools in ancient cultivation world!

Su Li learned the first book Cuixing Method carefully and immersed herself in it soon. In addition to the practice method itself, the jade strip contained more personal thoughts recorded by Black Lotus himself, which made it easy for Su Li to understand the content.

Having spent enough time with Black Lotus, Su Li was not completely unfamiliar with the common sense in the ancient cultivation era.

Practitioners, whether in the present or ancient times, could be divided into three categories by practicing approaches: cultivation of the law, cultivation of the soul and the cultivation of the body!

Therefore, there were corresponding schools during the booming period in the ancient cultivation era.

The cultivation of the law was collectively known as the heaven and earth school.

The cultivation of the soul was collectively referred as the soul school.

The cultivation of the body was collectively known as the pneuma and blood school.

There were countless special schools and sub-schools with different names, and there were no rules to follow.

The pneuma and blood school followed the path of body cultivation to sanctify the physical body.

These practitioners were physically strong and had giant strength with extraordinary survivability. They could kill a law practitioner of the same level with just a punch!

But their flaw was obvious, namely the inability of a distant combat.

Those law practitioners, who followed the top practice method, could use the strength of heaven and earth, and were much more powerful than those with physical bodies. As long as they could keep distance from body practitioners, they could win the enduring combat.

Generally speaking, the practitioners of the pneuma and blood school, who were benefited from their strong physical bodies and excellent survivability, were the most powerful of the three schools in ancient era.

Of course, some special schools, such as Chuangxing Path, were not included.

“With my strong physical body, it would be double fast for me to practice Cuixing Method, and it seemed to be the best choice to enhance my battle power in a short term.”

Su Li smiled, “Black Lotus was well prepared, and even a body movement technique and a boxing technique for close combat were included.”

The body movement technique Liufeng Method could perfectly be used at chasing or escaping.

The combination of the stiff boxing technique and the advantage of her physical body would definitely not be weak.

With a weapon in hand, and an inch longer meant a bit stronger. The swordsmanship was naturally better and stronger than the boxing technique, but no one could guarantee that he or she always had a good sword in his or her hands. Those who can only use swords, would be killed when no sword was available.

“However, I’m different. I am not a pure body practitioner. Even without a sword, I have many other means to use. So, the boxing technique should be put aside for now, Cuixing Method is my priority, and Liufeng Method comes next.”

After sorting out her priorities, Su Li began to learn Cuixing with no delay.

She was good at using swords in her previous life, so she had a profound understanding of swordsmanship. Besides, her physical body was also strong enough. Although Cuixing Method was a swordsmanship from a school, it was not so difficult to understand as one might have anticipated.

Soon, the first level of Cuixing Method was totally understood by Su Li.

Taking out a common long sword from the universe ring and sealing her cultivation, she began to gesticulate in the adytum.

She didn’t gesticulate for a long time. She stopped, frowning.

This adytum was appropriate for meditation and was too narrow for sword practicing.

“Fine. I will go to the back of the mountain.”

Su Li went out with the sword. No one else but Hua Yan and herself lived here, so she found a quiet open space very easily.

“The first move.”

With the move, Su Li’s mild pneuma became sharp at once. She took a deep breath and swung the long sword slowly.

The sword blade left a faint trajectory when slashing through the nothingness. The first move was so powerless that only a breeze was brought up.

“Failed.”

Su Li did not mind and continued to familiarize herself with the moves. Rome wasn’t built in a day, so did the cultivation. Despite of her excellent foundation, it would take her time.

Time went by unnoticed.

Three days later, Su Yuanhai woke up. Yan Ziye immediately came over to inform Su Li but did not find her in the adytum. He got Su Li’s whereabouts from Hua Yan. He followed the guide and found Su Li who was practicing sword in the mountains.

Seeing the light sword moves that Su Li practiced from afar, he couldn’t help but feel odd.

What kind of swordsmanship was this? It was powerless and could not chop off a willow twig!

At this point, Su Li stopped and asked faintly, “What is it?”

Yan Ziye came back to his senses and saluted in a hurry, “Master, Su Yuanhai is awake and... he became a little strange.”

“Strange?”

Su Li inserted the long sword into the ground and swept off the leaves fell on her white clothes. She turned around and began to walk, “Let’s have a check.”

Yan Ziye glanced at the long sword, was about to speak but stopped on a second thought. He showed the way ahead silently.

After about fifteen minutes, they were inside the guest room of Ni Sect.

Once seeing Su Li, Su Yuanhai became so excited and kneeled in front of her, not caring his injuries, “Master, I will feel eternal gratitude to you for saving my life!”

Yan Ziye was instantly astounded to see this sudden scene.

A savior?

He was almost killed by the Master! How did she become his savior after he woke up?

Was he insane after the beating?

Yan Ziye looked up and down and found Su Yuanhai’s gaze was clear. He got a cold foot.

What did the Master do to Su Yuanhai?

With her lips curled up, Su Li helped Su Yuanhai who was grateful rise, and her eyes were glowing.

The soul control method worked.

Su Yuanhai still remembered everything he experienced from childhood to adulthood, but his fundamental belief had changed completely into unconditional loyalty to Su Li!

“How do you feel now?”

Su Li asked faintly, which made Su Yuanhai feel so flattered that he knelt down and answered, “Thank you for your concern and my injuries are fine. In another half month, I will definitely be recovered. I’m willing to do anything for you, no matter what!”

Yan Ziye stood aside and found that the words sounded remarkably familiar to him.

Did Su Yuanhai copy this from him?

“Ziye, leave us now.”

Su Li looked at Su Yuanhai, who remained kneeling on the ground, and her eyes flashed as she commanded.

Soon, only Su Li and Su Yuanhai were left in the guest room.

Su Li sat down and made herself a cup of tea unhurriedly and said gently, “Raise your head, and I have some questions.”

Su Yuanhai obediently straightened his body and looked at Su Li with a loyal expression, “Please, Master.”

“Tell me all about Su Li’s childhood in details.”

Su Li took a sip of tea and her gaze fell on Su Yuanhai, who immediately sensed a burning feeling.

“You know about Su Li?”

Different expressions flashed on Su Yuanhai’s face, but no signs of a breakdown were seen like last time. His soul was manipulated, but he remembered everything, and he could think as usual. The cursed barrier in his heart didn’t exist any longer.

Su Li did not reply, only sipping her tea quietly.

Su Yuanhai felt the pressure and continued immediately, “Master, Su Li used to live in the same yard with me when she was young, however I didn’t know her very well.”

“Although Su Li was born by a servant of Su Family, she was extremely concerned. I am still very confused of the reason. I still remember that my father told me not to get too close to Su Li, but I was too young to follow his words. I got acquainted with her soon.”

Su Yuanhai fell gradually into the memory at these words and began to smile, “I still remember Sister Su Li’s shining smile. She had been following me and called me brother. We were awfully close, and I was called brother for the first time. That feeling... was wonderful. So, I swore at that time to protect her for my whole life!”

Su Li supported her face, listening with her eyes slightly narrowed. She ever called Su Yuanhai brother?

How didn’t she remember that?
