Although the old ancestor of the Leiyuan Sect reached the peak of the nature test, he was dying. In addition, he was old and weak, and he closed the six senses to practice in isolation. Su Li easily put the soul control seal in his body. It was only a few days that the entire Leiyuan Sect was under her control.
Everything happened so fast that Immortal Mi Xin couldn’t accept it completely.
However, he had been in the cultivation circle for many years. Just with a second thought, he knew it would do no harm. On the contrary, it would bring many benefits.
Both Immortal Chi Yu and Gui Leizi were controlled by her, and he would not be under threat anymore. Fan Zisang would be in charge of the Leiyuan Sect later. He was the respect teacher of Fan Zisang, and his situation would be certainly not too bad.
He comforted himself. But when he saw the old figure in the forbidden land bow to the beautiful woman, the complicated emotions still welled up in his heart.
This time Su Li struck secretly in front of him. On the one hand, it was partially because of lack of ability. If he stopped her, he would only humiliate himself. On the other hand, the old ancestor did not have a deep relationship with him. If it was his died master, his choice might be different.
Su Li didn’t know the thought of Immortal Mi Xin, and she also didn’t bother to know. After eliminating the biggest obstacle of the Leiyuan Sect, she finally had the first servant in Junior Emperor. Although the servant was useless in battle, he lived long enough to teach Yan Ziye and others how to practice.
And Li Yin would guide Fan Zisang when he woke up. So, there was no need to worry about.
Su Li knew they were delayed for a long time here, so she ordered Yan Ziye and others to go back with Gui Leizi.
“There’s something that I forget…”
Su Li looked back at the towering mountain at the entry of the mountain. Then she waved her sleeves to fly away and disappeared into the sky.
“Old Ancestor, you…!”
In the forbidden land of the back mountain, First Elder opened his eyes wide and said in a quavering voice, “The thousand-year foundation of the Leiyuan Sect…”
The skinny old man with withered hair gave a cold look, “Or you take the position of the Lord of Leiyuan Sect?”
First Elder held his breath, quickly lowered his head, and said in panic, “I dare not to do that!”
“There’s a reason for me to do that. You only need to manage the sect well and assist the new young lord. You don’t need to know other things. Is that clear?”
“Got it, got it!”
First Elder nodded repeatedly and was relieved. Since the old ancestor warned him, he wanted nothing but to wipe out all the mistakes he made before. That would be the best result for him.
…
A clean and quiet room in the back mountain of the Ni Sect.
“Master, it’s all I know.”
Gui Leizi stood beside the stone table respectfully, with his eyes full of awe.
Su Li waved her hand, “You should pretend that you are still a disciple of Immortal Chi Yu when you go back to Leiyuan Sect. Do not show any abnormal behaviors. If anything happens in the Holy Sect Fenglei, you should report it to me.”
“Yes, master.”
After Gui Leizi left, Su Li’s figure flashed. Then she returned to her resting place and sat down cross-legged.
“The Holy Sect Fenglei…”
She murmured thoughtfully.
One thousand and two hundred years ago, as Gui Leizi made a mistake in the Holy Sect Fenglei, he was sent to the Jiuzhou Region to be an agent. He hadn’t returned to the sect by now. However, he still obtained some information about the major events happened in the sect over the past years through his interpersonal connections.
One of them was the Reincarnation Mirror.
It was also the first time she had knew that not all holy sects agreed to the plan of the Reincarnation Mirror in those days. The Holy Sect Fenglei was one of the sects that disliked the Fate Ancestor very much and did not send disciples into the Reincarnation Mirror.
Therefore, the Holy Sect Fenglei made a good impression on Su Li instead.
However, that was all.
The plan had not been finished yet, and she didn’t have the ability to protect herself from holy sects. Therefore, she would avoid deep engagement with any holy sect now, if not necessary.
Su Li stopped thinking about it and concentrated on the object in her hand.
It was a shabby book, with a few pages missing. But it didn’t influence her reading the spells recorded in it. There was a quite complicated pattern.
“Blood burning method illustration.”
Su Li read the title of the pattern softly, and frowned slightly.
She knew many strange spells and skills, though, it was the first time she had seen such a weird spell.
“Chi Yu just used it to energize the bloodstone, and his strength was improved more than thrice instantly. He mentioned that he obtained it from a dying evil practitioner in his early years. After hundreds of years of practicing, he accidentally learnt the spell.”
Su Li fumbled with the rough page and stared at the pattern for a moment Then she closed her eyes to try to outline the whole pattern in her mind. However, after she pictured most of the pattern in her mind, she could not remember the remaining part.
“It’s weird. A good visual memory has been my natural ability by virtue of my cultivation. But I even can’t remember the pattern.”
Su Li was curious and intended to try again. Then the pitiful voice of Su Bai reached her ears suddenly, “Sister, I’m hungry…”
After an hour, Su Li returned to the stone room with a calm expression. It could be seen that her hair was scorched a little.
Although she could feel that the seed of the Divine Thunder of Gold cultivated by the Divine Thunder of Earth developed more in her body, the feeling of being struck by thunder was uncomfortable.
“There are still a lot of substitutes, which are enough to feed Su Bai in next ten years. But ten years later…”
After counting the external incarnation, Su Li sighed slightly. She began to doubt whether she was right or not to bring out Su Bai. However, when she thought of the legend of “Thunder of Lustration” Black Lotus mentioned before, she gave up the idea of sending Su Bai away.
She had a feeling that she must obtained the “Thunder of Lustration”. Otherwise, she would not fend off some disasters.
Su Li took a breath slowly, and then her eyes returned to clear. She removed all distractions and focused on the spell’s pattern.
She should have asked Black Lotus about the pattern. However, since they returned from the Mount Fenglei, the Black Lotus curled up and refused to come out. She didn’t know what he was doing.
Time passed quickly. It had been one year that she practiced in isolation.
During this year, with the assistance of Gui Leizi, the agent of holy sect, the Ni Sect had found most agents of the twenty-five sects. Yan Ziye and others had conquered nineteen among the twenty-five sects by the end of the year.
The fast speed also caused some troubles. The remaining six sects were aware of something wrong. But after Su Li stopped practicing in isolation to leave for a while, the Jiuzhou Region quickly returned to calm, and holy sects still knew nothing about it.
On this day, it snowed in the Jiuzhou Region. The mountain was covered in white, covering the traces of being struck by thunder.
Su Li stood on the top of the mountain. The snow came to her face, but it was blocked by an invisible shield and scattered.
Yan Ziye stood behind her, with deep and smooth breath. After he conquered more than ten sects successively, his temperament had changed radically compared with that two years ago. He exuded the calmness and seriousness.
But now, a glimmer of respect and caution was showed on his face.
“Ziye, you practiced slowly this year.”
She said softly. Yan Ziye smiled bitterly. Although he ran around this year, he didn’t forget improving his cultivation. He had broken through the Huashen Realm, and stabilized in the middle stage of Huashen Realm!
If any key disciple of holy sects practiced at such a speed, he must be proud of himself. But the master still thought it was too slow.
“Master, you are right.”
Even so, Yan Ziye nodded with a bitter smile, and didn’t retort.
Su Li was silent. Then she looked back and smiled, “It’s none of your business. I have devoted myself to practice this year, but forgot to help you practice.”
As she said, she flipped over her palm. Then a dozen jade bottles of various sizes appeared in her hands. Each of them was marked with a name. When Yan Ziye saw one of the bottles marked with his name, a feeling of familiarity rose in his heart.
Suddenly, his eyes brightened. Although he didn’t join the Linli Building in the Reincarnation Mirror, he heard that master’s method of medical circle was the best in the world. The refined pharmaceutical powder could greatly increase the speed of practice. Was it…
“Each bottle of elixirs that I developed for you is unique. I write the usage and dosage on the bottle. Don’t give them to wrong people. Otherwise, the consequence is unpredictable.”
When Su Li waved her hands, all the jade bottles flied. Yan Ziye caught them in a hurry, and curled his lips helplessly, completely discarding his seriousness.
“By the way, Master, there is a message about the thing you asked me to inquire about.”
When he put the jade bottles away, a thing suddenly occurred to him. He said in a deep and serious voice, “There is indeed a person who used your name to found the ‘Linli Building’ in the Qingshui Circle!”
Su Li’s eyes flashed, “Do you know who is the founder?”
Yan Ziye shook his head, “The movements of the members of the fake ‘Linli Building’ are very secret. After they stole the immortal poisonous insect “Sound Acquaintance” from the Jiguang Sect in the Jiuli Region last year, they disappeared. There are few movements of them. But there is a lot of gossip in the outside world.”
“What did they say?”
“The holy sect in the Jiuli Region was destroyed last year.” Yan Ziye said, and looked at Su Li’s side face cautiously, “Now, many people in the cultivation circle said it was done by the ‘Linli Building’, and you did it yourself.”
“Oh?”
Su Li raised her brows and looked back at Yan Ziye with a faint smile, “What do you want to say?”
Yan Ziye smiled in embarrassment, “Master, don’t mind. It’s really difficult to tell the truth when some intelligences were brought together. I also found out that in the Guling Gambling Battle, the competitor on behalf of the Jiguang Sect actually used the same pseudonym as yours. The Lord of the Jiguang Sect is also called Xuan Jingzhou by coincidence, and his wife’s is Su Yue…”
Hearing this, Su Li was stunned, “What did you say?”
Yan Ziye was also taken aback, “Master, you really don’t know…”
Su Li couldn’t hear it clearly. Only Su Yue, who died in front of her in the rainy night with worry and regret, recurred in her mind.
“In this life, does Xuan Jingzhou marry Su Yue? Then Xuan An…”
The corners of Su Li’s lips twitched, and a bit of joy appeared in her eyes. At this moment, Yan Ziye felt that even the gloomy sky seemed to be bright and beautiful.
After taking a few breaths, Su Li returned to calm and relaxed a lot.
“I indeed destroyed the Holy Sect Tianyin. Don’t spread it around. As for the ‘Linli Building’, continue to pay attention to it. If you could find out how to join it, notify me immediately.”
Although Yan Ziye had guessed it earlier, he still was shocked to be speechless after Su Li confessed it.
She destroyed a sect herself. The master’s cultivation was more superior than that when she was in the Reincarnation Mirror!
