Chapter 212: Xuan Jingzhou in Detention

Chapter 212 Xuan Jingzhou in Detention

An overwhelming force emanated from Ling Li. His razor-like face was wearing chill. He looked at Su Li so quietly, as if he was looking at a dead person. He was now… mad. Although he didn’t understand the reason, it did not prevent him from attacking Mr. Li. There was a voice in his head that if he took down the man in front of him, he might have one less enemy.

Ling Mo stood in the wind and snow and noticed the change of atmosphere in the chamber. He was a little worried. He would support his master no matter what happened. However…

It felt as if centuries had passed in just a few seconds.

Ling Li took a deep breath and sat down again. The atmosphere was defused again.

Finally, he let go of the rush in his heart. The more he cared about, the more thoughtful he became. He was no longer the mercenary who always acted alone and stood invincible. He was the one that held sway over the future of the Ling Family as well as the Yinmo Cult.

Su Li covered the half-open jade bottle on her knees and prayed the war never occurred.

There was no doubt that the Linli Building sided with the Yinmo Cult but it could never be a part of the latter. She must keep it that way. If her cover was blown, everything she had done would be in vain.

Sorry, Ling Li.

Su Li smiled and said, “The analogy may be inappropriate. I apologize to you if I have offended you.”

Ling Li was startled. Why did this man… become less hostile?

“Your Excellency sent this invitation because you fear we may pose a threat to your sect. Please rest assured. As Miss Su Li said, since I took her wine recipe, I would naturally run well the winery and provide good wine to everyone. The Linli Building has no ambition to get involved in the Dahan Country. I want to make it clear today. Please relax.”

Su Li smiled and drank up the wine.

But such an explanation made Ling Li more skeptical. Since the Linli Building did not attempt at anything, why did they act? Everyone wanted something in the world. What did Mr. Li want?

The two sat in silence, and the banquet finally ended in displeasure.

Su Li thanked Ling Li and flew over the lake, leaving the latter lost in thoughts. After he came to this world, he had built a powerful and mysterious force in just a decade thanks to the modern knowledge he acquired. He thought nothing in this world could baffle him. But since the appearance of Su Li, he became more baffled.

“Master, it’s time to go back home, or we will be found missing.” Ling Xian walked out from the backhouse and whispered to Ling Li.

Ling Li answered, looking at Ling Mo secretly. Ling Mo was expressionless and didn’t respond in any way.

Ling Li was slightly disturbed by such a response.

Ling Mo did not dare to say in front of Ling Xian. Then it meant that… in addition to the sect affairs, Ling Xian also did something secret.

After thinking for a while, Ling Li made an order of going back home, but didn’t inquire Ling Xian about anything.

He needed to consider it carefully as to whether he waited for her confession or investigated everything by himself.

…

At this moment, something strange happened in the Linli Building.

In the underground adytum, Xuan Jingzhou, who was dispirited, was tied tightly.

Fang Yuan, Qu Qingning, Yin Xuetong, and Fang Mu stood in the room, looking at each other. Then they stared at Wen Tingshan. Wen Tingshan felt uncomfortable and said, “Why are you looking at me?”

Qu Qingning touched the bruised eyes punched by Wen Tingshan and pushed the latter out of the door. “Protector Shan, let’s go outside and discuss this matter.”

Wen Tingshan was reluctantly pushed out of the door of the adytum. The other four also came out. Everyone was smirking except Fang Yuan. Wen Tingshan was even more depressed. He explained, “This person spied on the Linli Building with ulterior motives. I’ve arrested him and left him to Su Li for interrogation. Am I wrong?”

Everything started two hours ago. Xuan Jingzhou saw Su Li come in the Linli Building that night. He had been secretly investigating about the relationship between the Linli Building and Su Li. But no one ever knew about the relationship. Some even believed he was making trouble out of no reason and drove him out.

In desperation, Xuan Jingzhou sneaked into the Linli Building alone, but it happened that he entered the room used by Wen Tingshan to heal. Wen Tingshan found it out with his excellent psychic awareness the moment Xuan Jingzhou appeared. What a poor creature of Xuan Jingzhou! Though he was a senior in the inborn eighth hurdle, he was surprised and stunned by Wen Tingshan and fell on the ground.

The four people who knew Su Li’s relationship with Xuan Jingzhou and his wife felt strange about this matter. It left Su Li with no choice but to meet Xuan Jingzhou and Su Yue directly.

One hour later, it was already dark.

Su Li came to the Linli Building. She fell into silence after listening to the report of Wen Tingshan. She changed into black cloth and dressed up as the young “Mr. Li”. Then she came to the underground adytum.

Squeak—

The door squeaked open. It was pretty harsh for Xuan Jingzhou. He raised his head suddenly and saw a strange face he had never seen before. He hesitated to say, “You are…”

“Mr. Li.”

Su Li was expressionless. At this moment, Xuan Jingzhou was no longer an ordinary and pedantic person. He was radiating the magnificent righteousness that could only be found from those practicing decent mental cultivation method of Xuangong.

This was the real Xuan Jingzhou.

“You are Mr. Li?”

Xuan Jingzhou felt startled by this name. Nowadays, there were many mysterious rumors about Mr. Li in the intelligence circle. Although his reputation was not as good as that of the equally mysterious and powerful Childe Li, Mr. Li was still quite influential in Yunjing City.

Sure enough, the reason why this name was famous was not because of the Wu Family incident. Otherwise, the Linli Building had been destroyed entirely earlier.

It was the unpredictable medical skills that made “Mr. Li” famous.

The dose Ling Qinglan took was the horrifying Lijue Pill. But Ling Qinglan was still alive and kicking after so many days had passed. The pill was fundamental to the Lianshi Cult. How could this not leave them panic-stricken?

After multiple investigations, the Lianshi Cult finally got a name “Mr. Li”. But the sect, appearance and gender remained unknown. This was supposed to be the dirty linen of the Lianshi Cult, but “Mr. Li” became famous anyhow thanks to the efforts of spies. The story became more and more exaggerated after being disseminated by the martial arts circle.

Some people even held that Mr. Li was an old monster who had lived for hundreds of years. He was obsessed with medical skills, so he could handle the poison of the Lijue Pill. There was no one in the world who could compete with him, even the miracle-working doctor Qi Xianqing.

Xuan Jingzhou was more amazed to know that “Mr. Li” was actually a teenager.

“You are the owner of the Linli Building. I should have thought of it.” Xuan Jingzhou regained his calm and shook his head. He smiled bitterly and said, “Just go by the rules of the martial arts circle. Do as you like with me.”

Su Li smiled indifferently. “Xuan Jingzhou, to be honest, I have been following you and your wife.”

“What do you want?” Xuan Jingzhou’s voice became cold.

“Do you remember the pot of wine you and your wife drank on the first day of the Linli Building’s opening?”

Xuan Jingzhou was nervous. “What’s wrong with the wine?”

Su Li laughed softly and said, “Rest assured. The wine was not poisoned; otherwise, how can you and your wife remain safe and sound after so many days? I just wonder if there is any difference for those who are practicing the Doctrine of Secular World like you as to whether the wine was poisoned or not.

Xuan Jingzhou was overwhelmed by this statement… He knew everything!

At this moment, he actually felt that he was seen through by a teenager.
