Lady Su’s Revenge Chapter 383

Chapter 383 - Gathering

Chapter 383 Gathering

Under this pressure, Su Li got into a panic and waved her hand at once, “No… his surname was not Dongfang. It was just Wu Xue. I made a mistake.”

She took Jin Ying’s hand and fled away as quickly as she could.

“You’ve scared her…”

The old lady squinted and said with her hoarse voice, “Won’t you follow and have a look? These two girls might have met your father.”

Dongfang Yi intended to do so, but his eyes became clear as he was hit by the words.

He took a deep breath and sneered, “Even if they’ve seen my father, so what? I have nothing to do with him now, and his whereabouts is incomparable to the serendipity coming now.”

The old lady laughed at the words, “This young man is promising and worthy of being taught. And it’s worth taking the trouble to bring you here.”

Dongfang Yi ignored the old lady, sat down and closed his eyes, meditating.

But his heart was far less peaceful than he appeared.

His father had been missing for decades, and he had been looking for him for so long. He got the news some time ago that his father had been seen in the Black Stone Forest. It happened that Old Lady Duhua came to him, so he met trick with trick and came here with her.

And he didn’t expect to hear the news about his father before he even entered the cave.

“Yi, there is a reason that I have to leave. If I have not returned after 10 years, do not seek me then.”

Again, recalling his father’s final words when he left back then, Dongfang Yi felt his heart tightened.

His mother died in childbirth, and he was raised by his father with great care. The feelings hidden under his father’s stern face became clearer as he grew up.

Although his status in Dongfang Family had plummeted after his father’s disappearance, and he was no different from a servant, he had never held the slightest resentment towards his father.

“Dad, where have you been…”

After he heaved a heavy sigh, silence came back to the tent.

Su Li brought Jin Ying back to Wang Yu’s tent and disguised to fall asleep. Although she had left, she heard every word of Dongfang Yi’s conversation with the old lady.

“This young man, Dongfang Yi, is Dongfang Wuxue’s son, and it’s not hard to surmise that Dongfang Wuxue has been… missing.”

Su Li had related these to so much other information, as she was thinking.

It was only the top talents of Qingshui Circle that had entered the world of the Reincarnation Mirror. And Dongfang Wuxue was obviously an incredibly lucky person, who had survived when the Reincarnation Mirror shattered. After that, he found a cultivation companion, got married, and had a child.

Dongfang Yi was young, and she estimated that his bone age should not be more than 200 years. That meant that Dongfang Wuxue disappeared in the last hundred years, which should not be related to the Reincarnation Mirror.

“What a pity! If I could meet him, I would be able to let him tell me what happened after I died back then…”

With a hint of regret in her heart, Su Li opened her eyes and gazed into the nothingness, her eyes overflowing with a sign of missing that even she herself hadn’t noticed.

At the same time, in a teleporting matrix of an extremely distant region, Su Buwang was studying the names of other great regions that had emerged in the matrix map. Once his gaze landed on one of them, his brows furrowed tightly.

“Jiuzhou Region? It’s the place where that person had gone back then…”

With that in mind, he snorted and turned his finger to another big region next to Jiuzhou Region, “Bad luck! I’m not going anywhere that person has been!”

In these last few months, he had given a hurried and cursory glance at lots of big regions with the help of the teleporting matrix, but avoided all the places where Ling Li had been. Jiuzhou Region was no exception, so he had no idea that he had missed an excellent opportunity to meet the person he had been missing.

Back to the Black Stone Forest, there came suddenly a large number of unfamiliar pneumas in the boundary camp on the third day. Su Li sensed at least 50 people of Jindan Realm.

“Since when did practitioners of Jindan Realm in Jiuzhou Region become so common and worthless?”

Wang Yu told them something and then went to the main tent. Su Li thought with a serious expression.

There were quite a few acquaintances in those of Jindan Realm, but most of others were unfamiliar and dressed very differently from the practitioners from Jiuzhou Region.

“They are from other big regions, so this ancient cave isn’t as simple as I thought…”

Glanced at the key of the Divine Thunder of Earth lying peacefully in the universe ring, Su Li calmed down. She had experienced much greater occasions. A cave that only affected two or three big regions wasn’t worth her excitement.

Since the main tent was isolated by a tactical matrix, Su Li had no way to eavesdrop what they were talking, so she just sat back inside their tent and meditated. She had not completely comprehended either Suiyu Tactics or Soul Tactics, and she couldn’t afford to waste time if she wanted to master them before she entered the Zhuji Realm.

Jin Ying followed Su Li and sat aside to practice, for she was afraid to go out alone.

And in the main tent at the same time,

11 practitioners with different looks were sitting at a roughly made wooden table. Wang Yu sat at the second to the last seat and took a glance at Immortal Bingshu seated at the third seat, who was resting with his eyes closed. A trace of shock and confusion flashed over her eyes.

The 11 people present, except Immortal Bingshu and her, were clearly at Yuanying Realm! Why could Bingshu be arranged to sit at the third seat over those practitioners of Yuanying Realm?!

Her sight swept over the faces of other practitioners and she didn’t see any questioning or unconvincing expressions. Her heart was heavy.

A superior position and completely unequal intelligence meant that she had underestimated Immortal Bingshu from the very beginning.

Before Wang Yu had time to think it over, a silent elder sitting in the middle of the table swept over everyone in the tent and spoke slowly, “It seems that a young friend had an accident and was unable to make it here. Fortunately, I had prepared a backup plan… Time is ticking out, so let’s begin now.”

Although the crowd didn’t respond with a surprising look, they listened attentively to the words.

The elder smiled and said warmly, “I am honored that you have come here by invitation. I suppose you have brought the means I had agreed with you before, right?”

“How could I break the agreement with you, Tian Sanren?”

The elder with the surname Yuan, who had a conversation with Wang Yu at the entrance two days ago, laughed and swept over the other nine people present with a profound meaning, “Six levels made up the ancient cave, and I’m responsible for the third level. I wonder who is with me?”

Tian Sanren had made clear before that 12 people should’ve come, and there were six levels in the ancient cave, which meant that every two of them would be responsible for breaking the tactical matrix at each level.

Before he could finish his sentence, the old lady in red, who brought Dongfang Yi here, suddenly spoke out with her hoarse voice, which became harsh to Wang Yu, “I am for the third level. You have a problem with that, Yuan?”

Yuan’s face changed slightly, but in a flash, he regained his smile and said, “It’s you, Fellow Practitioner Duhua. It was Fellow Practitioner Tian who had arranged this, so why should I have any objections?”

An eerie smile showed on the wrinkled face of the old lady in red at the words, “You’d better not!”

Yuan immediately got goosebumps on his face, turned his gaze away from the old lady, and sat down without any words. But he cursed Tian Sanren in his heart for putting him in a group with this old monster.

After them, the other five groups became extremely harmonious to get to know each other.

Anyone with a bit of experience could see that those who were invited by Tian Sanren were extremely difficult to deal with. Even if some were just at Jindan Realm, they might be a hidden badass. No one would offend another before they saw the benefits.

Seeing that Bingshu was in a group with another middle-aged practitioner for the fifth level, Wang Yu confirmed her speculation. Bingshu did have direct contact with Tian Sanren, and he pretended not to know anything in front of her before.

With such a thought in her mind, she feared Immortal Bingshu even more.

When everyone stopped discussing, Wang Yu came back to her senses and realized that no one was in the same group with her. She looked dumbfounded at the vacant seat beside her. Could it be…

“I am relieved to see that you have no objections to the grouping.”

At this time, Tian Sanren said with a smile. Then, he looked at Wang Yu and apologized, “Fairy Hongyu, it seems that the sixth level of the cave can only be broken by you alone, so the benefits in it can naturally be kept by you alone, as well.”

Wang Yu was glad to hear that, but she remained calm and obedient. Then, she got up and bowed, saying determinedly, “I really appreciate you for giving me the chance to participate in the affairs of the cave, Senior. Therefore, you can take 30 percent of the treasures at the sixth level.”

“30 percent…”

The smile on Tian Sanren’s face didn’t change a bit, so no one could tell whether he was happy or angry about the offer.

“Wang Yu is not stupid…”

Yuan, seated by her side, was rubbing his chin and thinking with a secret sneer. Only 30 percent should be no temptation for the greedy guts, Tian Sanren.

The ancient cave was originally discovered by Tian Sanren, who logically knew more information about it than anyone else did. Although they talked sweetly here outside, no one knew what would happen after they entered the cave.

“Since everyone had agreed with the arrangement, tomorrow morning, please bring your people and set out with me for the Black Stone Forest!”

Tian Sanren got up and cupped his hands, and everyone immediately got up to respond. Then the tactical matrix around the main tent disappeared, and everyone left. Su Li sensed the change immediately and opened her eyes. Wang Yu came back into the tent, looking indifferent. Su Li was unable to tell Wang Yu’s mood, happy or angry.

“Master, you’re finally back.”

Jin Ying was awakened and was relieved to see Wang Yu. She behaved decently just as Su Li told.

Wang Yu’s eyes flashed with an imperceptible strangeness at the words, and she softly spoke with a smile, “Rest early, for we have to leave early tomorrow morning. There are many opportunities in that cave, even I will benefit from it. Whether you can go further on the path of cultivation or not will depend on your own serendipity.”

Su Li’s spirit was slightly lifted. After waiting for so many days, they were about to leave finally.

“Yes, Master! I will give my best and won’t disappoint you!”

Jin Ying straightened up and vowed solemnly so that she herself almost believed it.

Wang Yu, who was still in the dark, smiled with relief when she saw their reaction.
