The woman shook her head and sighed. The plain-looking middle-aged man didn't answer. He suddenly stopped sweeping and turned his head to look outside. His gentle eyes flashed with sharpness.
"What's wrong?"
The woman glanced at the gate of the courtyard in confusion, but she didn't see anyone. She couldn't help but ask.
The middle-aged man also had a trace of doubt in his eyes. After confirming for a while, he shook his head, "I was wrong. It's nothing."
At this moment, Su Li stood on the stone platform hundreds of meters away from the courtyard, looking at the warm and peaceful courtyard from afar. Her eyes were deep.
"Since that person can find my trace, his cultivation must not be lower than Huashen Realm."
Su Dieyin was supported by a practitioner of Huashen Realm?
Su Li pondered. The relationship between that person and Su Dieyin's mother was obviously not that simple. No wonder Su Dieyin could practice so fast with a practitioner of Huashen Realm supporting her from behind.
"I wonder who will win if I fight with him?"
Su Li thought. Although she only comprehended a trace of the Destruction Sword Intent, and the realm of Sword Intent had just reached a higher level, she speculated that it should not be difficult to deal with a practitioner of Huashen Realm who had just comprehended the power of the Will Power.
However, she didn't feel that the middle-aged man was a beginner of Huashen Realm.
After taking a deep look at the courtyard, Su Li turned around and jumped off the stone platform and disappeared.
At the same time, the middle-aged man sensed that the looming spy also fell silent. He didn't show any change on his face and continued to sweep, but many thoughts flashed through his mind.
"They have caught up. I can't stay here any longer."
He glanced at Su Dieyin's mother vaguely and sighed in his heart. He didn't say anything in the end.
After Su Li left Su Dieyin's mountain peak, she quietly returned to the courtyard.
Su He was just taken away, which deterred many impulsive disciples who were jealous of the courtyard. During this time, except for Su Xianyun and others who visited the courtyard, there was no one else. It was really deserted.
Su Li was happy. The more pressure Su Dieyin was under, the busier Su Xianyun and others would be, which made it more convenient for her to act.
"The fourth elder and the twelfth elder dare not take action in a short time. Although Su Dieyin's delaying tactic is exquisite, Su Dingxian is old and smart. He will probably come up with a way to break the situation soon."
Su Li sorted out what she had learned today and thought to herself, "The key to breaking the game is nothing more than uncertainty about my body. In that case … "
A smile gradually appeared on Su Li's face, "Let me give it a push."
Outside the hall, Ya 'er stood obediently at the door with her head down, waiting for Su Li's instructions that might come at any time.
After Su He was taken away, her thoughts faded. She just wanted to serve Su Jiuzhou obediently until this matter was over.
However, it was clear that some people's minds couldn't withstand the test.
"Hmm, hmm …"
What was that sound?
Ya 'er suddenly heard a noise, as if a mouse was grinding its teeth.
"Hmm, hmm …"
Again?
Ya 'er listened carefully and finally heard that the sound came from the main hall. But how could there be a mouse in the main hall that was full of formations?
"Is Su Jiuzhou doing something?"
This thought appeared in her mind, and her heart was filled with curiosity. She glanced at the others, and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, she thought about it again and again, and finally couldn't help but sneak into the main hall.
The sound of friction came into her ears from time to time, as if it was leading the way.
Ya 'er didn't doubt it and followed the sound to the back hall. At a glance, she saw that the stone door of the adytum used for practicing in the back hall was unlocked, and a touch of red light leaked out from it.
She was slightly alert, walked to the door lightly, and peeped inside.
The pungent smell of blood came to her face, and Ya 'er's heart trembled. But she saw a shocking scene.
The whole stone wall was covered with blood beads, as if a large amount of blood had been sprayed on it and slowly slid down from a high place, dyeing the whole wall blood red.
Her pupils trembled, and she looked down. Suddenly, she saw more blood, which gathered into a small pool in the middle of the uneven stone room.
"Why is there so much blood? Whose blood is it? "
Ya 'er resisted the urge to escape from here immediately, and continued to stare. Finally, she saw a petite figure squatting in the blood mist and wiping the wall.
She was clearly a delicate and pure face, but in such a bloody atmosphere, she looked extraordinarily terrifying in Ya 'er's eyes.
"That's … Su Jiuzhou?!"
Ya 'er clenched her hands, and her thoughts changed rapidly, "She killed someone and is destroying the corpse? But why don't I see the corpse? No … Didn't she lose all her cultivation? How could she kill someone? "
Ya 'er didn't wonder for too long, because she saw Su Li, who was wiping the wall, suddenly trembled and covered her mouth. A large amount of red blood flowed down from the gap of her palm like a small waterfall, and gathered along the lines on the ground into the blood pool.
"These … are all Su Jiuzhou's blood?!"
Ya 'er's pupils suddenly shrank, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. Finally … her heart was occupied by a speculation.
"I heard that Su Jiuzhou was seriously injured and lost all her cultivation. The head of the family is trying his best to support her to re-cultivate. But judging from the scene in front of me, Su Jiuzhou's body is obviously ruined, and it is impossible for her to re-cultivate."
"The result of her re-cultivating is that she keeps vomiting blood, and uses the blood as a medium to dissipate all the cultivation that she has re-cultivated?"
Ya 'er's body tightened, and she was really shocked by her own thoughts.
If the truth was as she thought, she would definitely get a great reward if she told the First Elder about it. But … if she guessed wrong, the result would be …
Ya 'er's face was a little gloomy. Her life was at stake in a wrong decision!
Was it worth it?
As if there was a response, Ya 'er saw Su Li stop coughing up blood in the adytum. She took away her palm and revealed an extremely pale face. She looked at the bright red palm in a daze and sighed softly,
"Master, I'm sorry to let you down."
Hearing this, Ya 'er seemed to be given a reassuring pill, and she tiptoed away with joy.
Her guess must be right!
"I'm going to report it to the First Elder. We can't let anyone get ahead of us!"
An indescribable urgency filled Ya 'er's heart. Her eyes were full of the bright future of cultivation, and the words she had warned herself before had long been forgotten.
Shortly after she left, Su Li's pale face gradually recovered. She reached out and waved her hand, gathering all the blood into a huge blood ball. After removing the impurities, they turned into blood lines and returned to Su Li's body through her pores.
Blood, of course, was real.
This little blood couldn't hurt her at all, but her blood poison was really weird. So far, she had only figured out some simple uses. If she let it spread, she didn't know what would happen. It was safer to take it back.
"It's done!"
Black Lotus Ring sprang out and laughed, "As long as Su Dingxian dares to take action, the Second Branch of the Su Family will be in your pocket."
"Don't be careless." Su Li's eyes were indifferent, "Su Dieyin has a practitioner in Huashen Realm behind her, but she let Su Dingxian develop freely. Su Dingxian may not be simple."
"Hum …"
Black Lotus rolled his eyes. This little girl would smile at Hua Yan, Yan Ziye and others occasionally, and even Mei Ruohan saw her smile.
Only to Black Lotus, she was sarcastic every time and didn't give him a good look.
"Who did I offend? Why did I find such a host?"
Black Lotus became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. Finally, he directly shrank into Black Lotus Ring and didn't come out.
Su Li didn't bother to pay attention to him and swaggered out of the courtyard. In a short time, she was completely out of the sphere of influence of the Second Branch of the Su Family and flew to the territory of the Seventh Branch of the Su Family.
Shortly after Su Li left, Su Dingxian came to the courtyard with a large group of people, which immediately alerted Su Xianyun and others.
Just when Su Xianyun was anxious for the elders of Su Dieyin's branch to arrive, everyone gathered in front of the adytum.
The two sides confronted each other, and the atmosphere was unprecedentedly tense.
Su Xianyun's face was extremely gloomy. Su Dingxian came with his people shortly after the master left. They must have colluded.
He saw the expressionless fourth elder and the twelfth elder mixed in the team and didn't intend to come over at all. His heart slowly sank.
The master's situation was even worse.
"Hum!"
Su Dingxian entered the adytum. Although the trace of blood was extremely faint, he still caught it.
"First Elder, the adytum was not like this before. It was full of blood! It was all Su Jiuzhou's blood! "
Ya 'er panicked when she saw the clean adytum.
Su Dingxian showed a gentle smile and waved his hand to Ya 'er, "Don't panic. If you don't want others to know, don't do it. No matter how clean Su Jiuzhou cleaned the adytum, some things were still left. "
Ya 'er was flattered by the first elder's comforting words and stood aside with a red face.
Su Xianyun and Su Zheng looked more and more embarrassed.
Su Jiuzhou vomited blood?
Why didn't they know? Did Su Jiuzhou hide it from them?
"Where did Su Jiuzhou go?"
Su Xianyun looked around. The whole hall was quiet, and it didn't seem that someone was hiding in it.
Su Dingxian walked to the wall unhurriedly and touched the slightly rough wall with his palm. The traces of being wiped were reflected in his mind, and his smile became more obvious.
"Su Jiuzhou is obviously terminally ill and will die soon, but the head of the family is obsessed with her and allocates a lot of precious practicing resources to her. How do you explain this trip?"
Speaking of this, Su Dingxian suddenly turned around, and his sharp eyes fell on Su Xianyun like a knife, "Su Xianyun, you are the first disciple of the head of the family and the young head of the second branch of the Su Family. Do you know anything about this?!"
Su Xianyun's body shook slightly, but he resisted the pressure and retorted loudly, "Nonsense! Master has devoted himself to the second branch and cultivated many outstanding disciples for the second branch over the years. How could he bend the law for personal gain? I think a thief deliberately forged this adytum in order to frame Master! "
Su Dingxian didn't expect that Su Xianyun dared to refute, and his old face became cold, "Su Jiuzhou absconded to avoid punishment, and you still want to quibble?"
"Hahahaha!"
Su Zheng laughed and pointed at Su Dingxian without any fear, and scolded, "Su Jiuzhou escaped? I think you, old man, have caught her and want no evidence. Su Dingxian, don't forget that you are the First Elder of the second branch, and Su Jiuzhou is the fourth disciple of the second branch. She is the future pillar of the second branch. You are so selfish to eradicate dissidents. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the old ancestor?! "
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of Su Xianyun and other elders changed.
Su Zheng, the hothead, had a bad temper. He didn't know that his words had severely offended Su Dingxian. If it weren't for so many people who saw this scene, he really wanted to twist off the head of this arrogant boy and kick it like a ball.
"Bastard! You don't respect your elders. Is this what your master taught you? "
The Fourth Elder stood out and scolded. He was originally blamed by Su Dingxian because of Su He. At this moment, he immediately stood out to redeem himself when he saw the opportunity.
Su Xianyun pulled the corner of Su Zheng's clothes, but Su Zheng didn't seem to feel it at all. He turned his head and scolded sarcastically, "No matter how much of a bastard I am, I am much more educated than some fence-sitters who like to climb the wall. Don't you think so, Fourth Elder?"
As soon as these words came out, the Fourth Elder's face immediately turned livid. He was so angry that his lips turned purple, and he couldn't say a word.
