Lady Su's Revenge Chapter 576 - The Showdown

Chapter 576 The Showdown

The hustle and bustle on the square immediately stopped. It became silent.

Ling Xian was shocked and forced a smile, “Did you…say something wrong? I don’t like this joke.”

Su Li looked at her coldly and did not respond.

Then Ling Xian gave a cold face as well and said in a deep voice, “My master is Fate Ancestor, and I am the candidate of the head of Shengtian Shrine. It’s the first time that someone has said that I’m unqualified! Well, Su Jiuzhou, you are the first one.

“I don’t care what you are talking about.”

Su Li smiled. It seemed that she didn’t hear Ling Xian’s angry menaces. After replying perfunctorily, she motioned to the two people beside her and then left.

Ling Yan saw Su Li leave, and an angry look appeared on her cold face.

“How dare Su Jiuzhou offend Ling Xian?”

“She must have a patron, otherwise she would bring about her own destruction!”

“The fourth round of the battles in Shengxian Mountain will be a good show. It is a pity that we can’t see it from the Fenguang Stone!”

“Ha-ha. Inexplicably, I feel very happy when Ling Xian loses out!”

“Hahaha. Keep it down. She may hear you.”

“The Lord of Evil is born to be cold, while she behaves like a fake. Does she really think she can rival the Lord of Evil?”

Although the sound of their discussion was weak, Ling Xian still could hear it. She was too angry that her lips kept quivering on her red face.

“Let’s go!!”

Hearing it, the maids surroundingher immediately followed her to leave.

After this farce ended, it quickly became a topic of conversation and was spread throughout the Shengxian City.

“What a defiantfemale pract.i.tioner Su Jiuzhou is!”

“Since she doesn’t care about the top holy sects, she must be someone!”

“Are there any other forces that can rival Shengtian Shrine in Qingshui Circle in addition to the top sects?”

“I don’t know…”

At the same time, Su Li and the other three pract.i.tioners met Xuan An and Huo s.h.i.+chun. Then they returned to the Chunting Court in the inn of Tianyake Attic. Dongfang Wuxue and the others who lived in Qiuting Court also came over to them without hesitation.

Huo s.h.i.+chun counted the noses with a serious but relaxed look.

“Jiguang Sect lost seven pract.i.tioners. Wanjian Sect lost two, and the holy land lost three. It is less than that of my guess. In addition to Lord Qingshui, I didn’t expect that Jiang Run also entered the fourth round.”

There were tears in Jiang Run’s eyes. He could not hide his sadness but his emotion was still stable, “Thanks for your praise. I have good luck this time.”

“As for the two pract.i.tioners of Wanjian Sect, I feel sorry for them. There are always many pract.i.tioners who will die in the Tianjiao Battle. Fortunately, you two survived out of these four pract.i.tioners,”

comforted Huo s.h.i.+chun. The two pract.i.tioners sitting on the side made eye contact and suddenly stood up. They made a deep bow to Ling Qinglan.

“Senior Fellow Apprentice, thanks for taking revenge for our junior sister apprentice regardless of the cost!”

They understood that with their low cultivation, they were impossible to take revenge on Zhao Qianlin.

“It doesn’t matter.”

Ling Qinglan waved his hand, “Please sit down. I have my own purpose to do that. I will tell you later.”

Hearing it, the two was shocked for a second and sat down in confusion.

Li Hai looked at Su Li. Then he took out a Fenguang Stone and placed it on the center of the table that they sat around.

With a sound, a full list of rankings was reflected on the Fenguang Stone.

“This is the micro list made by Tianyake Attic, and the information on it is incomplete. But it can be used as a reference,”

explained Li Hai. Then he sat down. Huo s.h.i.+chun immediately held fist salute to him, “It is sold at a high price in Tianyake Attic. I cannot afford it. Lord Li is so generous to share it with us.”

Li Hai gave a smile and said meaningfully, “Huo s.h.i.+chun, you are welcome. We have more opportunities to cooperate latter.”

Hearing it, Huo s.h.i.+chun was confused, but he didn’t ask about it. He was glued to the list in front of him.

“Shengtian Shrine, Ling Li, Ranking: 1.”

…

“On this list, most of the talents are noted. It’s clearer than the rankings showed by Tianjiao Mysterious Realm, which only published the rankings with the jade tokens,”

sighed Xuan An. Soon he found Su Li’s ranking.

“Unknown force, Su Jiuzhou, Ranking: 29.”

He couldn’t help but gasp and then said happily, “Sister, you are amazing. Our Jiguang Sect will be promoted as a holy sect after the fourth round!”

Su Li smiled, “Keep looking at it.”

“Uh-huh!”

Xuan An was excited and continued to look at it. Then he quickly found the next one.

“Unknown force, Unknown name, Ranking: 87.”

He read it out and looked at Ling Qinglan and Yan Ziye. He saw Ling Qinglan take out a jade token which flashed with the number “87”.

Then Yan Ziye also took out a jade token which flashed with the number “92”.

“Tut, you are luckier than me,”

said Yan Ziye helplessly. Ling Qinglan nodded, “The difference of four or five places demonstrates nothing. The ranking of the fourth round of the battles in Shengxian Mountain will definitely change.”

“That’s true.”

Yan Ziye held Jiang Run, who sat properly, with his arm and said, “Although Jiang Run ranks behind, maybe he will finally rank among the first one hundred.”

Jiang Run shook his hands, “That’s impossible.”

Yan Ziye smiled and didn’t say anything.

At this time, Dongfang Wuxue walked in and said, “The statistics of the Tianyake Attic have finished. Nearly sixty percent of talents died in the third round of the battles in the Immortal Layers! In the end, the lower-level Immortal Layers were almost empty.”

The pract.i.tioners outside who got Tianyake Attic’s information were discussing intensely.

“Over 600,000 talents came in, but only 200,000 came back. The Tianjiao Battle is extremely brutal and gory.”

“We just lost 100,000 talents in the b.l.o.o.d.y Accident of Holy Spirit in those days.”

“The talents who died in the Tianjiao Battle are much weaker than those died in the b.l.o.o.d.y Accident of Holy Spirit. The pract.i.tioners who died in those days are the top talents of the holy sects. Then many holy boys of the holy sects defected from their own sects, which left a far-reaching influence!”

“That’s true.”

…

“Although we can’t see the battles in Shengxian Mountain on the spot, the spirit of Tianjiao Mysterious Realm will release the information of all partic.i.p.ants.”

“The fourth round will kick off in three days.”

In the room, Huo s.h.i.+chun looked at Su Li with his eyes full of hope, “Lord Qingshui, we count on you for the future of the holy land!”

Su Li nodded. Then she narrowed her eyes and smiled, “Elder Huo, since the fourth round will kick off, I need to tell you something now.”

Head Wen’s prediction was right. There was actually a change!

Huo s.h.i.+chun’s expression changed slightly, but he was not nervous. Then he said to the people of Jiguang Sect, “You go first.”

The people of Jiguang Sect looked at each other and then left.

“Elder Huo, Lord Qingshui perhaps has her private affairs. But she could never be our enemy.”

Jiang Run transmitted the sound secretly. Then he was about to leave.

Su Li suddenly said, “Jiang Run and Xuan An, stay here.”

“Me?”

Jiang Run was slightly stunned, and he was pulled back to his seat by Xuan An.

“Since she lets you stay, you should sit down!”

Jiang Run scratched his head and meekly obeyed, “Oh.”

Huo s.h.i.+chun looked at Yan Ziye and the others next to Su Li and had some conjectures secretly. Then he said in a deep voice, “Lord Qingshui, please go ahead.”

Su Li nodded. Then she asked Li Hai to step forward and introduced him, “This is Li Hai,who was once the Deputy Lord of Yuxu Sectin Jiuzhou Region.”

Li Hai made a fist-and-palm salute. Seeing it, Huo s.h.i.+chun immediately stood up and made a fist-and-palm salute, too.

Originally, he thought that Elder Qingshui was an agent of other sects at best. These words proved that his conjecture was incorrect.

Yuxu Sect!

After the b.l.o.o.d.y Accident of Holy Spirit, who didn’t know Yuxu Sect?!

Although it was only a high-grade sect, its particularity was equal to that of the holy sects. In addition to Shengxian Region, Jiuzhou Region was the most special large region in Qingshui Circle. There were countless agents of holy sects in Yuxu Sect, which it was very sensitive.

“Once?”

Jiang Run frowned. He noticed the implication of Su Li’s words.

“Sister, my conjecture is right!”

Xuan An laughed with light flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes. He guessed, “I have always felt that you must be someone. It seems that Deputy Lord Li takes orders from you. I have heard that the Lord of Yuxu Sect was an old man. But Sister, you are so young and beautiful. You must be a holy girl!”

The holy girl of Yuxu Sect… Fang Ling?

Huo s.h.i.+chun clenched his hands more and more tightly in his sleeves. If Xuan An was right, then…this woman was their enemy.

“Elder Huo, don’t be nervous.”

Li Hai looked at Su Li respectfully and said for her, “Indeed, I take orders from Honored Master. But she isn’t the holy girl of Yuxu Sect.”

Honored Master?!

Hearing it, Huo s.h.i.+chun felt uncomfortable. That was the paramount appellationof the holy land. Only the Master of Linli Building deserved it.

“Isn’t she the holy girl?”

Xuan An was shocked, and he asked incredulously, “Is she the Grand Elder of Yuxu Sect?”

The Grand Elder of Yuxu Sect!

Their sworn enemy!

Jiang Run had a serious look on his face. Then Li Hai smiled,

“No. The Grand Elder of Yuxu Sect has been taken captive by Honored Master.”

He said casually, but others were stupefied.

“What??!”

Huo s.h.i.+chun was pop-eyed. He couldn’t believe what he just heard and asked, “He was taken captive? Did I hear it wrongly?”

Jiang Run gradually loosened his fists. He looked at Su Li’s calm face with light flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.

“Elder Huo, you heard it right.”

Yan Ziye laughed and said proudly,

“One year ago, Honored Master led Ni Sect to destroy Zihan Sect and Yuxu Sect, occupy twenty-five sects and control all the agents of holy sects just in three days! The person sitting in front of you is the Grand Elder of our Ni Sect, the Master of Jiuzhou Region—Su Jiuzhou!”

Hearing it, the three people were petrified instantly.

Thwack!

Huo s.h.i.+chun trembled with astonishment and fell from his seat. He stared at Su Li, who wore a calm face, and couldn’t regard her as a general elder.

The master of a region!!

What a supreme status it was! It was almost the equivalent of a Junior Emperor! Moreover, the only one who could be referred as a Junior Emperor in Jiguang Sect was the former First Elder who was old and practicing in eternal isolation.

She controlled all agents of holy sects in three days and didn’t let the information be leaked at all!

How did she do that?

How much labor and time should it cost to find out nearly eighty percent of agents of holy sects in the entire Qingshui Circle and control them in an instant?

In his opinion, it was impossible.

It was Su Jiuzhou who planned and conducted it. Huo s.h.i.+chun thought she was more and more mysterious.

Why did such a mysterious and powerful female pract.i.tioner sneak into the holy land to be an ordinary elder?
