Lady Su’s Revenge

Hearing the words, Qing Weiyue bowed respectfully before raised his head, and said loudly in a way neither humble nor pushy, “I did not know before, but I think about it. Grand Elder obviously could determine our doom several times, but you finally chose the back mountain to let us get killed without impacting the operation of the sect. Your intention mostly is to take Meng Sect for your own.”

As he said that, he put his right fist on the chest. Bowing his head, he said, “If Grand Elder don’t mind my inadequate capacity, I will be willing to serve you faithfully.”

“Really?”

Changing her sitting posture, Su Li leaned lazily on the throne, and said with a forced smile, “I just heard that the lord of Meng Sect had a life-saving grace for you. If I master the sect, the name of Meng Sect will be vanished. Don’t you have any thoughts of taking revenge on me?”

Qing Weiyue was stunned, but said with a wry smile, “Grand Elder, to be honest, my life in the sect was quite tough after the disappearance of the lord of the sect. As hundreds of years goes by, my whole sense of belonging has faded away. If you didn’t appear, I would tend to find another way. Contrarily, cooperating with Su Family is no less than committing suicide!”

Su Li’s eyes slightly closed, and she could distinguish that what Qing Weiyue said was a fact.

“You have gotten acquainted with the nature of Su Family.”

Su Li thought of all the things in the past, and her face became slightly cold. But Qing Weiyue didn’t notice it, and just said honestly, “I once suffered losses under Su Family, and due to them, my life was in jeopardy.”

“No wonder…”

Su Li nodded slightly, whose knuckles knocked on the throne, and said slowly, “Do you know what the detailed plan of the cooperation between Su Family and Meng Sect?”

On hearing this, Qing Weiyue ultimately felt relieved, and had a thought that this new Grand Elder was indeed fishing for the information about Su Family.

He was so pleasant to see that Su Li became the enemy of Su Family. After all, he had no chance of a win on his own to seek revenge. But now, he felt a ray of hope.

“Ning Dawei was always on guard against me. Even if he had told me about the cooperation with Su Family, he didn’t tell me the specific matters because of my strong opposition. Now Ning Dawei is dead. If Grand Elder wants to know it, just go to ask Pang Yueling, the Second Elder. He was the person who knew the plan most clearly besides First Elder.”

Without hesitation, Qing Weiyue ratted on Pang Yueling and added, “now Pang Yueling is outside the door.”

Su Li nodded slightly. What Qing Weiyue said was same as the words of those two people. However, he was willing to say it, while those two were forced to confess it by the means she used.

After pondering for a moment, Su Li looked straight at Qing Weiyue who was made to feel sick by her sight. Then she said with a smile, “Qing Weiyue, if you want to take revenge on Su Family by taking advantage of my power, then…naturally, you cannot follow me just by those few words. What if I leave Pang Yueling to you?”

Face changed slightly, Qing Weiyue was silent for a moment, gritted his teeth and nodded.

No pain no gain. He knew that.

“Well, I hope you will give me a satisfactory answer.”

Seeing Qing Weiyue nodding, she broke into a bigger smile. Her finger snapped, and the exquisite pocket-size Golden Book, a magic weapon, flew to Qing Weiyue.

Qing Weiyue was stunning when the voice came through, “The magic weapon is on loan to you, and then you can deal with Second Elder with great ease. Go on.”

Being slightly shocked, Qing Weiyue took the magic weapon subconsciously, whose head remained overwhelmed.

“Unexpectedly, the Six-fold Holy Tactical Matrix of Meng Sect should deem her as the master, but it clearly belongs to the lord of the sect and was just lent to Ning Dawei. How is it possible…”

In the confusing thoughts, Qing Weiyue knew there was no retreat. Storing away the Golden Book, he gave a salute to Su Li, and then hurried out without words.

After a while, there was a commotion outside the door, but it soon subsided.

Narrowing her eyes, she immersed herself in refining of the cave of Cang Lei. During a year in seclusion, she did not have the time to refine the cave, which should be placed on the agenda.

If Dongfang Wuxue was released early, she would have a more reliable assistant.

Solely two days later, Qing Weiyue went back to the hall, whose eyes were full of exhaustion but totally bright. It seemed that he had experienced a transformation in these two days.

Sitting in the throne, Su Li slightly opened eyes, and said, “Your efforts are not in vain for hundreds of years you have stayed in Meng Sect.”

On hearing these words, Qing Weiyue was shocked, whose originally impetuous heart owing to the unification of Meng Sect completely calmed down.

He was not the only Elder who was snubbed for hundreds of years in Meng Sect, and thus he was trying to win over most powers stealthily. This time his power was shown with the help of Su Li, which was so easy to substitute a new lord for the old one in Meng Sect, and nothing was leaked out.

However, he knew exactly what he was going to pay. He adjusted his mind rapidly after he calmed down, and said reverently, “I was overpraised, Grand Elder. If I don’t have the capacity, how dare I recommend myself to you. Whether it is Ni Sect or Meng Sect, both of them belong to you, and I just manage them for you.”

“You don’t have to tell me that.”

Su Li raised her eyes slightly, twinkling with a dazzling light. “As long as you can do something for me at a specific time, it is possible for you to be the lord of Meng Sect. How is the inquiry of the Su Family going?”

His heart suddenly beat faster, but then Qing Weiyue forced himself calmed down, and said in a respectful voice, “Pang Yueling didn’t want to confess it at first, but he still couldn’t stand after two days by my means.”

At this point, Qing Weiyue stopped for a moment and seemed to be sorting out his thoughts. Then he continued after a while, “Ning Dawei only relied on the seventh branch of the Su Family as a representative of the Meng Sect, and there is no substantive transaction for the time being. But half a month later, the seventh branch will appoint a new Miss Su Qi, and a promotion banquet will be held in Yiyun Yard. Then all the sects attached to the seventh branch will be present!”

Qing Weiyue frowned. “At that time, I’m afraid Su Family will gather all forces to discuss how to deal with us.”

Su Li kept poker-faced, and snorted, “Su Family is never willing to take risks in person but use others to kill people. I think they scared the housekeeper in front of the sect last time, but it doesn’t matter…we will go and see it.”

“What? To see it together?”

His eyes widened, and Qing Weiyue couldn’t think of anything for a moment.

Su Li smiled with crooked eyes, and said, “Since Meng Sect has submitted to Su Family, why you cannot go to the promotion feast?”

“Grand Elder, you are saying…”

Qing Weiyue finally understood. His mouth opened but he felt it was dry. He did not know what to say.

Just two of them broke into an extremely dangerous place. How risky it was!

“You are not my subordinate but Meng Sect’s. I spare no efforts in concealing the process of changing the head of Meng Sect. Don’t let me down.”

Su Li’s indifferent voice echoed in his ears, and Qing Weiyue felt chilly in his heart.

It turned out that the reason why Grand Elder went to the back mountain to fight with Ning Dawei was not to preserve Meng Sect completely, but because of this!

“She had guessed the intention of Su Family. It is so terrible that she has a meticulous mind and long-term vision.”

His forehead sweated slightly, and Qing Weiyue did not dare to have other minds. Then he withdrew from the hall after giving a salute reverently, and prepared for the trip to Yiyun Yard.

10 days passed in a flash.

On this day, Yan Ziye secretly arrived at Meng Sect after receiving a letter from Su Li to replace Qing Weiyue temporarily. Knowing he was vicious “Immortal Bingshu”, all people dared not to make any movement even if they knew Qing Weiyue and Su Li were about to go away from the sect.

“It’s almost the time.”

After taking a look at the sky, Su Li stepped on the end of Qing Weiyue’s flying sword, turning back and taking a look at Yan Ziye.

Suddenly being refreshing, Yan Ziye slightly nodded, and said, “Mr. Su, please rest assured. I will guard the Meng Sect and will never leak out any information about Meng Sect.”

The ice-cold eyebrows and eyes of Su Li softened, and she nodded slightly, drawing back her sight.

Seeing this, Qing Weiyue’s mind controlled the flying sword, which immediately whooshed into the sky and disappeared after a few breaths.

Yan Ziye looked up at the sky, and slowly spit out a breath, “The first step is always difficult, Mr. Su… Be careful!”

—

But at the meantime, Yiyun Yard was full of lanterns and decorations, and the busy figures of servants in the yard were constantly shuttling. Only a room deep in the yard seemed quite lonely.

In front of the house, two servants in the clothes of steward were whispering, who looked rather weird.

“Unexpectedly, the Seventh Miss is Su Yousheng!”

“So surprised am I! The lord of the house is so crazy! Su Yousheng, a girl who was tarnished by Reincarnation Mirror, is not qualified to be a Miss of our Su Family.”

“It’s said that Miss Su Zini died with no reason, and for the selection of a talent, the lord of the house was like a drowning man clutching at straws. But it is so ridiculous! He didn’t think about how much trouble the second holy girl of Yuxu Sect made in those years, and now…”

“Hum!”

The two servants’ words were not finished, and suddenly a cold voice came into their ears. Upon hearing that, their faces got paled and they dare not to say a word.

In the room, Su Yousheng quietly admired herself in splendid attire in the mirror. Looking at the little maid beside her, she couldn’t help laughing, “Xiaoyu, why do you care about these servants?”

Xiaoyu, who wore two small hair buns, turned and stamped her foot. She curled her mouth and said, “My dear Miss, I just can’t stop being angry! You are clearly sober, and your ability is no worse than that of any Miss of Su Family. How can you be with that madman…”?

“Xiaoyu!”

Su Yousheng’s face went cold. Xiaoyu knew what she said was improper, and immediately spat out her tongue, “In a word, you deserve it! And you are much better than that Su Zini!”

Shaking her head without words, Su Yousheng stared at herself in the mirror in silence.

Was she crazy?

Maybe she was. And all the people who had entered the Reincarnation Mirror were crazy. She couldn’t tell whether she was a Miss of Su Family or that person’s sister, but in her heart…she preferred the latter.

There was no need to stay in the icy Su Family which just pursued the interests.

“Although it’s not the same time, my sister seems to have come from Su Family in the early years, but later she went to the Xuyu Sect. But why… I haven’t found any trace of her ever living in Su Family for thousands of years.”

Thinking of this, Su Yousheng sighed slightly.

Maybe she could find more clues after being the Seventh Miss of Su Family.

“Sister…”
