Chapter 409 - Who was scheming against whom
Su Li was playing with the small disc that was refined by her within three days. Seeing that, Hua Yan was quite worried, and couldn’t help asking, “Li, can it really deal with the scheme of the seventh branch of Su Family? They have gathered dozens of small sect forces to ambush you. You must be careful.”
“Don’t worry.”
Su Li clenched her palm, put away the disc, and raised her eyes slightly.
Hua Yan looked outside naturally and saw as expected that the First Elder just entered the hall. He walked to the center, saluted and said, “Grand Elder, Lord, Qing Weiyue, the Elder of Meng Sect, asks for a visit.”
“He finally came.”
Hua Yan took a deep breath and said, “Deliver my command. Let him in.”
The First Elder respectfully responded and quit with a bow.
At this moment, Ni Sect was facing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, but he saw that the petite girl, sitting high on the stage, was very calm and without any panic.
There was no need to pretend deliberately, so he flew up to Qing Weiyue, who was still in the outside of Ni Sect’s gate. He raised his head slightly, and said coldly and vigilantly, “Please come in. The Lord is waiting for you in the hall.”
Nodding his head, Qing Weiyue followed First Elder and disappeared with him after entering Ni Sect.
In the Cangjin Valley, the people of Su Family hid in the dark. A watery mirror appeared in the nothingness in front of Su Yuanhai and other people. The scene in the mirror was that Qing Weiyue was entering the gate of Ni Sect, and even the sound was transmitted.
“Master, Qing Weiyue is summoned by the Lord of Ni Sect. It seems that it is true that the Grand Elder of Ni Sect is practicing in isolation.”
Su Mengqing spoke first. Su Yuanhai nodded and whispered, “Over the past year, the disciples of Ni Sect have been bullied by Meng Sect, but they have no intention to resist. It is maybe because their Grand Elder is practicing in isolation and they have no confidence.”
“It’s a pity that the First Administrator and his retinues have been in a coma since they came back, and the First Elder is not here at the critical moment. Otherwise, there is no need to mobilize our forces.”
Su Mengqing sighed regretfully. Su Yuanhai gave him a look, and then glanced at the old man in a purple robe not far away from them, who didn’t seem to hear what they said. Su Yuanhai said softly, “We are not at home now.”
Su Mengqing suddenly realized his fault and regretted privately, but he wondered why the Master didn’t prevent him.
“Haha, it seems that Master Su still has grievance towards our Zhenlou Group.”
When Su Mengqing was annoyed, the old man in the purple robe suddenly walked toward them with laughter. Until he came to Su Yuanhai, he stopped and said as he laughed,
“Your First Elder can participate in the repair of the big tactical matrix, while many matrix masters can’t do it, even they begged for many times, just like me. Although I participated in the selection during that time, I failed because of insufficient matrix realm. Alas...”
Su Yuanhai stared at the old man in the purple robe and said slowly. A stream of pressure spread with his words.
“Matrix Master Shen, there is no need to say more. I’ve already been tired of these words after I heard them countless times. Now I just want to know when the First Elder of the seventh branch of Su Family will come back from the Zhenlou Group?”
No matter how trivial and sophisticated the big tactical matrix was, would it take 800 years to repair?
Moreover, the excellent matrix masters of Jiuzhou Region were repairing it together, and even the Tenth-Grade big tactical matrix should be restored.
If it was not because that the soul tablet placed in the ancestral hall was not broken, Su Yuanhai might think that the First Elder of the seventh branch of Su Family had died.
“Well, please be patient, Seventh Master of Su Family.”
The old man in the purple robe who was called “Matrix Master Shen”, held his fists with a courteous attitude and said sincerely, “Actually, I came to help you for some reasons. On the one hand, you asked for help from the Zhenlou Group, and on the other hand, the Zhenlou Group also wanted me to bring some news to you to pacify your irritable mood.”
“Oh?”
Su Yuanhai raised his brows, “I would like to hear more details.”
“You must know that all people who went to repair the big tactical matrix didn’t return.” Matrix Master Shen kept his voice down, and a burst of wave appeared around him and enveloped three of them.
It’s the Sound-proof Matrix...
Standing beside them, Su Mengqing pricked up his ears. He was so cautious, and what Matrix Master Shen would say next must be an unmissable secret.
“You are right.”
Su Yuanhai nodded, “But so what? Even it is a tenth-grade big tactical matrix, it will not take 800 years to repair.
“Seventh Master of Su Family, you are wrong.”
Matrix Master Shen immediately refuted, and looked at Su Yuanhai with a serious expression and sparkling eyes. “If the level of the big tactical matrix has already exceeded the Tenth-Grade?”
Oh?
Su Yuanhai’s eyes fixed, “Matrix Master Shen, what does that mean?”
Matrix Master Shen’s eyes were full of solemn, and he didn’t answer but ask, “Master Su, you are familiar with the ‘Bloody Accident of Reincarnation’, aren’t you?”
“Of course. It is a major event that affects the entire Qingshui Circle. As long as you are a person in the cultivation circle, you must know it.”
Su Yuanhai suddenly stopped, and kept saying in surprise, “You mean...”
“Yes!”
Matrix Master Shen’s eyes were full of longing and pity, “The big tactical matrix which needs to be repaired is just the fragments that fell out from the ‘illusion of reincarnation’!”
“Unexpectedly.”
Su Yuanhai was stupefied, and a plain-colored phantom in white appeared in his mind spontaneously.
He was more than 2,000 years old and was in the same generation as Su Li. When he was young, he also lived in Yiyun Yard...
“Brother Yuanhai, thank you for your food.”
“Brother Yuanhai, why can you practice and become strong, but I can’t?”
“Brother Yuanhai, I don’t have parents anymore. When you become an immortal who can fly, take me out of here, okay?”
“Brother Yuanhai, I am painful. Why did they hurt me...? What is it in my blood?”
“...”
“Su Yuanhai, you are the same as the people of Su Family.”
“I will never come back to Su Family.”
“......”
Su Yuanhai closed his eyes and tried to calm down his emotion caused by his childhood reminiscence.
Looking at his Master strangely, Su Mengqing consciously did not bother him.
After a long time, Su Yuanhai opened his eyes. His eyes were in peace, as indifferent as water. He looked at the picture in the water mirror where Su Li and Qing Weiyue were flying out from Ni Sect together, and said softly.
“Time is almost up. Let’s start preparing.”
...
In the sky toward the direction of the Cangjin Valley, Su Li followed Qing Weiyue who was flying his sword. Qing Weiyue’s psychic awareness swept around but he found nothing. He was about to talk to Su Li, but was stopped by a voice in his mind.
“Someone played tricks on you. Transmit the voice to me.”
Qing Weiyue was shocked. He was played tricks?
When? Why didn’t he discover?
However, since Su Li said that, Qing Weiyue certainly believed her. He transmitted his words to Su Li, “Su Family and other sects are all in the Cangjin Valley, but you didn’t tell me what tactical matrix they will use to deal with you.”
Su Li flickered her eyes.
“You are surely using the tactical matrix. After so many years passed, Su Guohong, I hope your tactical matrix realm will not let me down...”
Thinking of that, she turned over her palm, on which a light flashed and a ball of pneuma appeared.
“I didn’t expect that Su Family has such a treasure as Wuxin Grass. Then... I can speed up the second layer of Suiyu Tactics a lot.”
Surely enough, the bait Qing Weiyue brought to seduce Su Li was the Wuxin Grass. However, under the instigation of Su Family, he described it as something that grew in the Cangjin Valley and was protected by powerful monsters, so he had only cut out a ball of pneuma for proof.
As expected, the Wuxin Grass was in the treasury of the seventh branch of Su Family.
Su Li’s lips moved and showed a fascinating smile.
“Su Yuanhai, I will be really sorry for you.”
Swooshing!!
Two arcs crossed the sky and they were quickly seen by the spies outside the Cangjin Valley.
“They are coming!”
Matrix Master Shen waved his hand, and the murderous intent in his eyes increased. He said in voice transmission, “Everyone, be ready!”
Lords from little sects hiding everywhere stood in the matrix one after another and injected their own strength into it. Dozens of forces of Jindan and Yuanying realms condensed in one place along the runes, right under Su Yuanhai’s feet!
The horrible energy was surging vaguely.
“Seventh Master of Su Family, the tactical matrix has already been accomplished. You can use the power of the Soul-absorption Matrix to confront the enemy at any time. Even the top practitioner of Yuanying Realm cannot bear the combination power of dozens of Jindan and Yuanying realms.
Matrix Master Shen said in a very tired voice. He was not a Master of tactical matrix after all, but a high-grade Master of matrix. It was quite strenuous for him to set up such a large matrix.
“Matrix Master Shen, you’ve worked hard. After it succeeds, I must pay you a big reward!”
Su Yuanhai stared at the two people who were slowly descending from the sky. He glimpsed over Qing Weiyue, and paid his attention only on the petite girl who showed an indifferent expression.
“I need people now. If I remember correctly, there remains the one and only dose of Illusion-arising Medicine in the warehouse. The last dose was used on Su Li. This dose...”
“Su! Yuan! Hai!”
His wishful thinking has not been finished. Suddenly, a loud crash rang in his brain, which was like a big bell ringing beside his ears. He was even shocked to bleeding from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. Then he was in dizziness.
“Master!!”
Su Mengqing was greatly frightened by the scene.
“I am fine!”
Su Yuanhai shook his head fiercely and raised his head in horror, but he only found that the person was no longer in the air. He became nervous suddenly and he turned to look around, but found nothing.
“What are you looking for?”
A vague ghostly figure suddenly appeared beside him, with an unspeakable tease in her tone.
It made Su Yuanhai’s flesh creep. He turned around and quickly retreated. During this time, he immediately smashed the Soul-absorption Matrix switch in his hand.
While he flashed away, a small disc fell into the core of the matrix under his feet. It whirled around and stopped.
Matrix Master Shen saw it, as if he saw a ghost. He was pop-eyed and shouted hoarsely, “Stop! Don’t start the matrix!”
Su Yuanhai heard the words of Matrix Master Shen and looked at the empty hands with bitterness on his face.
“It is too late.”
Bang!!!
A huge roar came from the Cangjin Valley, and the smoke was so thick that people could not see anything.
“Bah! Bah!”
After he spit out the mud that came in his mouth surprisingly, Qing Weiyue tried to see the scene clearly in the valley. He finally saw the familiar figure of Su Li’s walking out from the valley.
She dressed in white, but her clothing was actually spotless. There was also no trail on her body that she fought against anyone.
“How did you do it?”
Qing Weiyue was aware again that the girl in front of him was unfathomable.
Su Li stretched out her hand and waved. The strong wind blew away the dense smoke in the valley, and the vision gradually became clear. She beckoned, and said with a smile, “It’s almost done. Let’s see if the seventh Master of Su Family has anything else to say.”
Seeing Su Li’s beautiful profile in the smoke, Qing Weiyue who was long in the tooth was fascinated.
