Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 441 Let’s have a play

The middle-aged man in a purple robe floated onto the stone step. He was good-looking, and had no beard but some stubble. His eyes were sharp but seemed to be covered with mist.

Su Li opened her eyes and glanced over the ground.

This man had no feet. He was a spirit or something like Black Lotus.

“You’ve found that I lied to you long ago, haven’t you?”

“When?” From the mouth of the middle-aged man came a sharp voice, which did not match his appearance. And it couldn’t distinguish whether the voice was from a man or a woman.

As the words came out, an invisible pressure spread on the stone platform. At that instant, Su Li got a feeling of guilt if she did not answer his question.

Within a few seconds, many thoughts swept through Su Li’s mind. Finally, with a slight struggle in her eyes, Su Li said reluctantly, “At the fifth stone step. There was no reward from the Star Path.”

“Just because of this?”

The middle-aged man in a purple robe looked stunned and a hint of remorse flashed over his eyes.

If he had known that, he would not have done the trick so early. If he had given her the reward from the Star Path and allowed this woman to recover from her injuries, she would’ve had no worries and died in the challenges because of carelessness.

But now it’s too late to say that. He had been holding a fluke until she reached the seventeenth step. How ridiculous!

He looked at Su Li, whose eyes were full of struggle, and knew that his pressure would not last long. The dark purple light in his hand was condensed into a purple light saber. It emitted a stream of pneuma that frightened Su Li.

Holding the light saber in his hand, the middle-aged man in a purple robe showed hesitation in his eyes.

He did not want to fight personally. It didn’t matter if he manipulated the awareness of the tests on the Star Path and got one or two descendants killed. But if he killed one junior personally, he would very possibly be discovered. And his right to stay here would certainly be deprived, or even worse, he would be expelled to the Abyss of Fallen Spirits.

Once thinking of the four words of “Abyss of Fallen Spirits”, the middle-aged man in a purple robe was deeply scared. Finally, the purple light saber in his hand dissipated away, and he said coldly, “Go to the seventeenth step in two hundred hours. If you can finish the tour of Star Path, I don’t mind sharing part of my inheritance with you.”

He didn’t dare to do it after all. After leaving these words, his body instantly dissipated.

Coincidentally, Su Li was also fully awake at that moment. With a serious look on her face, she seemed to be considering the truth of that statement. But actually, she said it’s a pity secretly in her heart and dispersed the gesture to ask for the Arbitration of the Star Path.

She was not controlled by the pressure at all. With her soul and spirit, she would not be affected by the middle-aged man in a purple robe even before that metamorphosis, let alone now.

As for what the middle-aged man in a purple robe said, if she had chosen to believe it, she must be killed.

“Two more steps...”

Su Li took a deep breath and sat down to heal her injuries.

Time ticked second by second. After several days, only dozens of seconds of the two hundred hours were left. Su Li opened her eyes, pondered for a moment, and chose to walk on the seventeenth step.

The scene of the high platform reappeared. Su Li got a clean look at the puppet’s face for the first time, which was not different from the face of the middle-aged man in a purple robe. It stood in the field silently, holding a long sword in its hand and waiting for the arrival of its opponent.

Su Li’s gaze was clear. She did not even look at the weapon rack, and the same three-feet sword flew out by itself. She guided the sword into her hand, and said gently with a smile, “Let’s get it started!”

Swish! Swish!

Both figures instantly turned into shadows that floated everywhere in the entire high platform.

In the dark, seeing the fierce battle on the high platform, the spirit in a purple robe frowned. He felt something different on Su Li, but he couldn’t tell the change... specifically.

“That thing must not be taken away. I have used the words to distract her and I will kill her in one move before she asks for Arbitration.”

Thinking of this, the spirit in a purple robe stared closely at Su Li’s every move. After dozens of battles in a row, Su Li’s combat experience was greatly improved and her combat power increased. However, the swordsmanship Su Li used was revealed to him. There were no more than six moves!

The most powerful move was that rotating one from the bottom to the top. He had seen it no less than ten times. If this girl dared to use this move, he would be absolutely sure to take the chance and give her a fatal strike!

“Kid, you can only be blamed for blocking my cultivation. It’s goddamn to cut off other’s cultivation!”

His face looked ferocious, and the tiny purple sword reappeared in his hand.

At the very moment when the purple sword was condensed, Su Li suddenly shouted clearly, and the long sword in her hand turned into a rotating sword shadow and flew towards the puppet!

“It’s now or never!”

The fierce light in the eyes of the spirit in a purple robe shone resplendently. At the same time, the tiny purple sword in his hand instantly flew into the nothingness and appeared at the back of Su Li’s head in the next instant without any signs.

He stared at Su Li’s back, with a fierce smile of certainty on his face.

In a flash, he suddenly saw Su Li turned around, and a square gesture like an ancient pot in her hand enlarged quickly. In his horrified eyes, a clear shout sounded through the nothingness.

“Welcome the Arbitration of the Star Path!”

As the words were finished, everything in the space was frozen, along with the tiny purple sword. A white figure condensed slowly.

“How could...”

She had looked through me long ago!

The spirit in a purple robe stared at the tiny purple sword with his red eyes, “Come back! Back!”

No matter how he drove the tiny sword, it seemed to be caught in a mire and did not move. The figure in the white light became clear gradually.

Despair appeared in the eyes of the spirit in a purple robe, and he suddenly turned his head to Su Li with killing intention in his eyes, “Kid, I came to this end today because of you! Give me your life!”

Su Li was scared and was about to step back, but a figure was faster than she did. In the blink of an eye, the spirit in a purple robe was stepped under one foot and was unable to move.

Su Li was stunned for a moment. She turned her head to the place where the white light coalesced, but there was nothing left.

At the same time, a cold snort came out from the white figure’s mouth, “Commit murder blatantly against cultivators during the test on the Star Path. Embezzle the reward from the Star Path secretly, and increase the difficulty of the tests by more than two major realms. All these crimes are outrageous! How reckless you are! If I haven’t come personally, you would have killed many more talents. There is no place for you to stay here anymore. Disperse now!”

The words were no sooner out of his mouth than a white light rushed into the spirit.

The spirit in a purple robe under the foot emitted a chilling scream and howled in a frantic struggle, “How could it possibly that you can speak, Arbitration of Nature Soul? My luck can’t be that bad! She was just at Zhuji Realm. How could she have a perfect nature soul? I am not convinced!!!”

With his last word speaking, the white light had invaded into his spirit, and a black flame ignited. In a short time, the spirit in a purple robe was incinerated, nothing left except for ashes floating in the starry sky.

Meanwhile, the purple flying sword fixed in front of Su Li’s face also dissipated gradually. The crisis was gone.

Watching the scene quietly and looking at the white shadow who killed determinedly, Su Li could not help thinking.

Star Path... What kind of place was it on earth?

As she was there for the first time, she thought it was just a space formed by a cultivating realm. However, the appearance of Suiyu Tactics and that laughter in the dark made her believe that it wasn’t that simple.

The Arbitration of the Star Path came here because of her call. She wasn’t convinced that there was no living person behind the white shadow. She wondered if anyone outside had observed her going through the test step by step until to the end of the test.

All kinds of doubts surfaced from her heart.

At this time, the white shadow turned around. Su Li couldn’t see his face clearly due to the dense white light. However, she did see that he seemed to reveal a smile, “Brilliant, kid. After finishing the third round of the Star Path, you may have the opportunity to enter the Star Hall. Good luck! Because you’ve been treated unfairly in the Star Path this time, I will not only grant you all the rewards from the Star Path but also compensate you according to the rules of the Star Hall. So, what do you want?”

“Star Hall?” Su Li looked at the white shadow, “What is the Star Hall?”

White Shadow smiled, “You will know later. Now tell me what do you want as compensation? Of course, forget about the ideas such as promoting your cultivation level to Yuanying Realm instantly.”

Su Li thought for a moment silently. Then she raised her head and asked, “What is the Will of Sword?”

The white shadow looked at Su Li with surprise, “Is this the compensation you asked for?”

Su Li nodded. The white shadow couldn’t help but smile. He shook his head, “It’s a bad deal, little girl. Since it’s your request, I’ll show you my Will of Sword. As for how much you can comprehend, it’s up to you.”

Before Su Li reacted, the white shadow ejected a white light from his fingers and left a sword notch that was not very deep on the stone step.

“This sword notch can remain for three days. Whether you can comprehend anything from it is totally up to you. The Will of Sword is nothing but an obsession. Remember this.”

The white shadow dissipated before he fully finished his words. He came and went hurriedly as if he had never appeared.

Su Li squatted down and studied the sword notch on the ground. She seemed to comprehend something and muttered “Obsession ...”

At this moment, something deep inside her seemed to begin to sprout.

Three days passed quickly, while Su Li seemed to be addicted to the sword notch. She still stared at the stone step with a daze, on which the notch had disappeared.

After some unknown time, when all her injuries were almost healed on their own, she finally came to her senses and stood up. She looked as usual.

At this moment, a dull voice in the nothingness rang out, “Are you ready to accept the rewards of the Star Path now?”

Su Li’s sight flashed and fixed on the eighteenth stone step. She said coldly, “Not now. After I break through the eighteenth step, give all of them to me then!”

...

On the eighteenth step, the scene rotated.

Su Li landed on the high platform. Seeing the middle-aged man opposite, she took the long sword to attack without saying anything. The sword moves were performed naturally as her wrist flipped.

This move, however, was not the sixth move, and there was no green light flashing on the sword body.

“The first Move of Cuixing, Collapse!”

Su Li spoke gently, and the black light in her eyes flashed out again. For the first time, she plated a layer of black flash, remarkably similar to the purple light, on the sword.

The puppet took the sword stiffly to collide.

Bang!

It sounded like two wooden swords had collided together. Su Li was stunned, because the attacking power of the opponent was much smaller than expected, even less than the power at the first step.

That shouldn’t be like that.

“Great kid! How dare you test your sword skills with me? Do you wish to die?”

At this time, the puppet’s dull face became lively. He smiled, “It’s been a long time since I met such an interesting kid. Let’s have a play, OK?”
