Chapter 240: Wandering Ghosts

Chapter 240 Wandering Ghosts

Su Li’s words were like the forever lasting ice on high mountains, cold and ruthless.

Ling Li froze as if he was struck by thunder. He fixed his eyes on Su Li’s extremely calm face. His lips were shaking as if he was going to say something, but he didn’t ask why in the end.

“If there is nothing more, I’m going to leave then.”

Su Li looked at the sculptured man in front of her and left without hesitation before Ling Li’s reply.

Ling Li’s body was stiff, and he held the posture for a very long time.

Immersed in deep sorrow, Ling Li didn’t feel the sense of escaping in Su Li’s leaving.

Men in the Barren Mountain Courtyard wondered why Su Li left alone but didn’t dare to ask under Ling Li’s deterrence. So, Su Li went back to the tunnel easily.

Su Li turned back to make sure no one followed. She couldn’t hold anymore and fell on the ground with one hand against the wall. After removing the spell, some blood flew out of her mouth. Her calm face was replaced by strong pain and guilt, and tears dropped down along her cheeks like a broken beads line.

It was so close. She almost said yes, but at the last moment, she had to cast spell to block her emotions to say no.

She slowly closed her eyes. Every matter and encounter passed in her mind, blurring the boundary between her previous life and this life. She was lost at the moment.

“Yeah, I went through the torture of being cut to pieces in previous life, and I swore that I must return all my sufferings back in the afterlife.”

“Su Li, you’re just a ghost who wants to revenge from the hell.”

“How am I qualified to touch any other things?”

She smiled with a hoarse and cold voice. She shed countless tears, and the bloodstain on her month was still wet. But she didn’t wipe it. She just stood up embarrassedly and walked towards the deep recesses of the dark alley.

Just as she thought, she was like a solitary and homeless ghost.

After she left, there was a light in the dark alley, and an old figure appeared from nowhere. With the light lightening the man’s face, it could be found that he was the old beggar who had ever told Su Li’s fortune.

But the way of his appearance was very strange, just like a ghost.

The old beggar walked to the wall by which Su Li once stood, looking at the blood on the ground. He shook his head and slightly sighed, “Obsession will kill people…”

…

Ling Li sadly came back to the Ling Mansion. Ling Xian pushed the wheelchair behind him, with happiness and worry in her eyes.

Luckily, Su Li refused him and didn’t take Master away from her. But Master felt so hurt. “What should I do if he kept in this way forever?”

Hearing her son come back, Qiu Meng immediately laid down the accounts in her hand and welcomed him back. When she saw her son was like suffering a great mental harm, she walked towards him quickly with worries, held his wheelchair and signed Ling Xian to leave.

Ling Xian hesitated for an instant but had to go. Madam was Master’s mother. Maybe she had ways to cheer him up. But Madam seemed to like Su Li very much…

No matter how Ling Xian worried about Ling Li, she couldn’t handle the situation. That’s because she was just a maid in the Ling Mansion. She made the decision so that she could stay with Ling Li but now it became the biggest stumbling block.

At the present, Qiu Meng was asking her son for information in the study.

“What? You just told her?”

She looked at her son in shock and said angrily, “You’re a silly boy. Have you been a playboy in vain for all these years?! It’s the first time for you two to go out together. How dare you tell her your true feelings? She is an unmarried girl, so she must be reserved. It’s certain that she refused you.”

Ling Li felt astounded and stammered, “Really?”

Qiu Meng lessoned him like an experienced person, “Of course! You should not be impatient when you pursue her. You need to do it slowly. I’ve just prepared a good start for you, and I thought you were smart enough to cultivate your relations. But you… Ouch! Let me think what we are going to do next…”

Ling Li scratched his head and looked very silly. He wasn’t like a resourceful devil of an evil cult, controlling numerous lives now. He was like an innocent boy.

He thought there was something wrong about what his mother said, but also thought she was right. Maybe he was too impatient.

He remembered everything happening in Dasu Town. They had a chance to encounter in a ship outside the Hongyan House and had much contact because of the Full Moon and Heart Strings. What Qiu Meng said seemed to be true.

That’s right!

He had never tried to impress Su Li throughout.

His eyes became brighter and brighter. He said, “Mom, I know what to do!”

But at this moment, Su Li went to the Linli Building and changed her clay-covered clothing into the same but cleaner one, and went back to the Affiliated School of the National Academy. She looked calm and cool and didn’t seem to cry before.

Yun Yi was taken by Su Li from the Yinmo Street, and was still stunned that the headquarters of the Yinmo Cult was a street. He didn’t notice Su Li’s change on the road.

“Miss, you finally come back.”

Wu Bin came to her, looking at her nervously. Seeing that she was neatly dressed, he dropped his worry and said, “There is a respected guest coming here to visit, and he has waited for a long time.”

Su Li went in with her eyes flashing. Yun Yi left to have a rest, and Butler Wu wanted to follow Su Li. But Su Li stopped him and said, “I can handle it, Butler Wu. There is no danger.”

“Yes, Miss.”

He knew she wanted to get rid of him. So, he smiled like a blooming old chrysanthemum and turned away.

Su Li came to the Affiliated School of the National Academy alone and indeed saw Tantai Yu sitting on the center of the school, having his back toward her.

Hearing something, Tantai Yu turned around. As soon as he saw Su Li, he showed a gentle smile and said, “Junior Sister Apprentice, you’re back.”

Su Li nodded slightly and walked to sit down across from him. They looked at each other, but he was a little bit nervous. So, he avoided eye contact with her. His ears became red.

He complained in mind that he felt happy to have a junior sister apprentice, but he wasn’t good at getting along with girls. Su Li’s first impression of him was not good, and it might be worse now.

The clumsy action made Su Li relaxed, and she laughed sweetly, “Senior Fellow Apprentice, you’re funny.”

“Ah?”

He was astounded and his face turned even redder.

“Senior Fellow Apprentice, you should come back to your country after the Auction Fair. Otherwise it would be dangerous. Why are you still at Yunjing City?”

“Is she concerned about me?” Tantai Yu felt warm and agreed with what she said very much. If contacting with the Yinmo Cult and Linli Building, it must be dangerous to stay at Yunjing City.

He took out the Hanfeng Sword to Su Li and smiled, “It’s time to leave. I’m here today to say goodbye to you. I noticed you don’t have a suitable weapon and this Hanfeng Sword…”

“Thank you.”

After the Auction Fair, there were so many weapons that had the same level as the Hanfeng Sword, but she nodded with a smile and received it. It was like a dream coming true for Tantai Yu.

Seeing that Su Li received his gift, he was delighted but hesitated for a moment and said with a low voice, “Actually, Master also came here.”

“But why didn’t he come to see me?”

She pretended to be doubtful and avoided eye contact with Tantai Yu. Of course, she knew Qi Xianqing had come here, and he also was caught as a guide by Ling Li. If Ling Li didn’t know their relationship, whether Tantai Yu and Qi Xianqing could be alive and leave Yunjing City was not certain.

Tantai Yu sighed and said, “I just knew. Master was once the royal preceptor of the Dahan Country, but then he fell out with the Dongfang Family. You’re the princess of the Dahan Country now, and he probably didn’t decide how to meet you.”

“I see.”

Su Li nodded but didn’t care. If Qi Xianqing really cared about worldly rules, why did he recruit her as his apprentice? He was from the Ghost Valley in previous life and countless people wanted to become his apprentices. However, the first rule was that only men were recruited!

Tantai Yu left quickly, with warmth and happiness in his heart. The relationship between him and Su Li finally made some progress.

Su Li went upstairs step by step and stood in front of the window of the second floor. She gazed at the night and felt a little puzzled.

She really wanted to know why Qi Xianqing came here to contend for the Full Moon and Heart Strings, but his action had failed, and Tantai Yu wasn’t going to tell her seemingly. If she asked him, it would certainly expose some relationships. So, she had to give up.

She took the glass bottle from her cuff and turned it to the moonlight. The Full Moon and Heart Strings was shiny.

The people of the martial arts circle all knew the Full Moon and Heart Strings should be used at a full moon night. Those taking it could reach the Immortals’ Place in Full Moon with the essence of the moon and have a strong combat power. But she got another usage from that special woman in previous life.

She squinted her eyes slightly, looking determined.

That was a dangerous path, but it was also what she needed now.

The next morning,

Mammy Li got up and washed up. Then she started to make breakfast for Su Li. The courtyard had been cleaned up by servants, and she just needed to serve Su Li well.

But at this moment, there was a noise coming from the front of the Affiliated School of the National Academy.

“Who dares to make trouble here?”

Mammy Li was curious and went out after adding a handful of wood in the stove. She was immediately stunned by the scene.

“Wu Bin, how dare you stop me?”

“No, no, no, Third Master Ling, it’s just…”

Wu Bin showed a wry smile. He didn’t understand why this big playboy would come here. It seemed that if he didn’t stop him, he would go to the mansion of Miss straight away.

“Okay, let me ask you. Is this the Affiliated School of the National Academy?” Ling Li asked arrogantly.

“Yes.” Wu Bin didn’t know what the meaning was, so he just nodded.

Ling Li said loudly, with a strange smile, “Ling Mo, tell him why the Affiliated School of the National Academy was established??”

Ling Mo said without any expression, “Master, the Affiliated School of the National Academy was established for playboys of Yunjing City to study.

“So, what are we waiting for? Let’s go!”

Ling Li said cheerfully and went into the Affiliated School of the National Academy with Ling Mo. Wu Bin and others were stunned.
