Lady Su’s Revenge

Chapter 134 - Ling Qinglan and Su Qingtan


Chapter 134 Ling Qinglan and Su Qingtan

When Yan Shixun heard what Ms. Li said, his body was tight for a moment but then relaxed. He had a forced smile and said, “You are right. By this time, it is not a suitable time to investigate my dereliction of duty. I am going to submit a statement about the situation to the imperial court today, waiting for the disposition of the imperial court!”

“Lord Yan, you…”

Su Li changed her expression. When she was going to say something, the voice came from the gauze curtain again. “Lord Yan, don’t be worried. The power of the Lianshi Cult is beyond your imagination. As long as Su Li testifies, your Yan Family will not be affected. On the contrary, the ends of the families that have worked with the Lianshi Cult are hard to say…”

“Thank you for your blessings.”

Yan Shixun heard the words of the person behind the gauze curtain, but he was not optimistic. He just got up with a fist and palm salute. Then, he and Su Li hurried off.

After Su Li left, the others were relaxed. Qu Qingning uncovered the gauze curtain. Fang Ling dressed in the “Ms. Li” costume sat inside. She also held a poisonous insect, like a shell, in her hands. She ran to Fang Yuan with a beamish face.

“Eldest Brother! Did I perform well?”

Fang Yuan showed a soft smile and reluctantly shook his head. Fang Ling didn’t need to perform. She just needed to sit there. But he still praised her, “It’s good. My Ling is the best.”

Fang Ling instantly made a merry smile. She carefully placed the poisonous insect back into the brocade box on the desk. Then, she got busy.

“It is quite unexpected that Su Li has such a magical poisonous insect. I have never seen it before even if I have stayed in the Nanjiang Country for more than a decade.”

Qu Qingning moved closer to look at the “Sound Acquaintance” and expressed his surprise.

Fang Yuan looked calm. No matter how many magical things the magical maiden had, he would not be surprised. He just felt that he had seen the poisonous insect before, but he couldn’t remember it.

“Maybe it is in a dream.” Fang Yuan said and smiled. He was not entangled with it.

Luo Yichen looked at the two persons who were still busy on picking up and then went downstairs to look for Mei Ruohan. After he finished the task, he often remembered the scene that Su Li used claw blades to cut herself without hesitation.

There was no fear in her eyes. It seemed that she was eating or drinking. Luo Yichen could not help but shudder accordingly.

“She is cruel to either enemies or herself… My Ruohan is better.”

After Su Li lived in the Yan Mansion under the heavy protection for seven days, she received the news from the imperial court.

“Su Li, it’s great! The imperial court not only didn’t blame my father but also sent the Officer of the Supreme Court to help solve the case. I heard that many seniors would come too. They are going to deal with the Lianshi Cult!”

Yan Hongxiu couldn’t keep the secret. Once she heard the news from Yan Ziye, she immediately ran to Su Li and told her. Su Li was relaxed after hearing it. Even if she was ninety percent sure about it, there was still ten percent possibility of an accident. Fortunately, this time it was not unlucky.

Yan Shixun was clever. He blocked the news from the imperial court and turned a blind eye to the arrogant coercion of the Jin and Lin Families. He pretended that nothing had happened even if much of his property was seized.

The Jin and Lin Families thought that the Yan Family had completely conceded defeat, so they became more licentious. Although they were suddenly unable to contact Wu Yun, the Yan Family’s various retreats showed a sign of admitting defeat.

After Su Li’s arm got well, she left the Yan Mansion and returned to the school. She finally could move freely and returned to the Linli Building.

In the underground adytum, Su Li looked at Wu Yun, who was muddleheaded like with dementia. Although Wu Yun never said uncle, few people could keep their secrets under Su Li’s psychedelic poison.

“The whereabouts of the official silver were known. But when we made a survey, the room had been empty. Apparently, the Lianshi Cult had perceived.”

Fang Yuan added at the side. Su Li nodded slightly and said, “If it had been still there, it would have been strange. The annual official silver of the imperial court is tens of millions of taels in general. So, they can replace it with lots of resources for the practice based on their pulls in the martial arts circle. It is impossible for them to give up.”

“However, there was so much silver. How could they carry it away that night? Tens of millions of taels is hundreds of thousands of catties…”

Fang Yuan frowned and said. He only couldn’t figure it out.

Su Li smiled and gently said, “The warrior in the inborn first hurdle can carry ten thousand of catties. The old man in a gray robe, which we met yesterday, was in the inborn seventh hurdle and was a corpse control master. Therefore, it was not difficult for them to carry away hundreds of thousands of catties things.”

Fang Yuan was slightly shocked in his heart. The old man, who was killed and mutilated by Su Li last night, had such a high cultivation! What was Su Li’s cultivation?

Looking at Fang Yuan, who was thinking of something, Su Li didn’t say anything. She ordered him to take care of Wu Yun and not to kill her. Then she returned to the school. After calculating the time, she speculated that the officers sent by the imperial court had arrived. Although there were many incapable Officers of the Supreme Court, there were also many real detectives. The official silver stolen was such a serious thing, so presumably the officers sent would not be too bad.

She was thinking of it. Meanwhile, an unremarkable carriage finally stopped at the doorway of the Yan Mansion’s secret door. A middle-aged guard disguised as a normal groom opened the curtain. A youth with an indifferent expression got off.

The youth’s face was not handsome but was very easy on eyes, especially the quite strange lavender eyes. The sharp eyes showed his sagacity. It seemed that he could thoroughly know the stars and starry sky.

The youth was early twenties, but it seemed that he was more like a wise old man who had experienced vicissitudes of life. He exuded an unpredictable breath like a high mountain or a deep sea.

There was a teenager getting off after him. The teenager was also dressed in casual clothes. Although his appearance was handsome, his temperament was much more ordinary than that of the youth.

However, he also had the vitality and potential that the youth did not have.

“Here is the Qinghe Provincial Office.”

The youth said, and a glimmer flashed in his eyes. The teenager’s eyes had infinite emotions, and he said, “Qinghe Province, I come back.”

The middle-aged guard took out their baggage from the carriage. Then the three persons were secretly greeted to go in by the butler of the Satrap’s Mansion.

Satrap Yan was perturbed and hovered in the room. When he saw the butler leading the three persons to come in, he immediately greeted them and said to the middle-aged guard, “The lord comes from afar. But the situation is special, so I can’t let you come in from the front door. I really offend you!”

The middle-aged guard’s expression was cold. He raised his eyebrows and stepped aside to let the youth appear in front of Satrap Yan. He said, “Lord Yan, this is the imperial envoy coming far from the Supreme Court in Yunjing.”

The room was silent for a moment, and the atmosphere was extremely embarrassing.

The youth gently smiled without any anger for the mistake. He slightly patted the folding fan in his hand and said with a magnetic voice like a spring breeze, “Lord Yan, I am Ling Qinglan, the Officer of the Supreme Court! I come here for investigating the theft case of the official silver. Please cooperate with me.”

When Yan Shixun heard the name of the youth, he was shocked in his heart. He was overwhelmed by joy and an unexpected favor. He said, “I don’t deserve it! It turns out that you are the widely-known youthful detective in Yunjing! If you take charge of the case, the stolen official silver will be recovered in full!”

Ling Qinglan’s smile remained unchanged. He said, “It’s hard to say. You said in the statement that there were forces from the martial arts circle intervening. Such a case is usually very troublesome.”

Yan Shixun had a forced smile. He inadvertently glanced at the teenager behind Ling Qinglan. He couldn’t help but frown. The teenager looked familiar.

Perceiving the sight of Yan Shixun, Ling Qinglan pulled the teenager out and said with a smile, “I forget to introduce him. He is the new Officer of the Supreme Court promoted this year. He is also from your Qinghe Province.”

Yan Shixun heard it and was immediately shocked. He instantly looked at him. The teenager was slightly nervous but could keep equanimity. He looked up and said, “Lord Yan, it’s been a long time.”

Although the teenager became mature after one year, had the hair style of the Supreme Court, and grew tall, Yan Shixun still recognized him. He was extremely shocked and pointed to the teenager. He said, “You… you are Su Qingtan?!!”Read more chapter on v ipnovel.com

Su Qingtan was recommended to Yunjing by him. He couldn’t forget him. However, the time didn’t match. At this time, Su Qingtan should still be in the School of Chinese Classics.

Su Qingtan smiled shyly but did not explain.

Ling Qinglan did not give them time to talk about the old days continually. He smiled and said, “Do not wait. Could you take us to see the injured female lecturer now?”

“Yes, I could!”

After seeing Ling Qinglan’s resolute and vigorous behavior, Yan Shixun was not shocked but rejoiced. He quickly prepared a carriage to go to the Qinghe Girls’ School.

Su Li was still quietly reading a book while healing her wounds in the courtyard of the school. This time, the condition of her injury needed to be maintained for the Supreme Court as evidence. Therefore, since she was injured, she had stopped the genuine energy from moving in her left arm’s tendons and vessels. Although the speed of recovery was still fast due to the human body, it was within the normal range.

“Swoosh…”

The sound of wind came from woods. Su Li’s ears moved, and then her pupils instantly shrank. She stood on tiptoe and looked down.

She saw that a carriage was parked in front of the courtyard. Three persons got off, but she could only sense two breaths! It meant that another person’s cultivation was at least equal to hers!

Besides, the more exaggerated thing was that the youngest teenager among the three… was the Eldest Brother actually?!

“This is the courtyard of Lecturer Su.”

Yan Shixun introduced with a smile. He led Ling Qinglan and Su Qingtan in. Mammy Li quickly greeted and saluted them. Then she saw the teenager walking in the end. She immediately opened her eyes widely and shouted, “First… First Master?!”

What?!

The sudden shout shocked Yan Shixun. Who was the First Master?

Su Qingtan was also shocked. He said, “Mammy Li, why are you here? What happened to Second Sister?”

At this moment, Su Li appeared at the door. She stared at Su Qingtan, whose face wasn’t immature anymore. Tears couldn’t help but fall.

“Second Sister!”

Su Qingtan exclaimed. He couldn’t help but walk to Su Li and hug her tightly for a long time.

Seeing the scene, Ling Qinglan raised his eyebrows. Yan Shixun was dumbfounded. He had never thought that Su Qingtan and Su Li were from the same family. It was lucky enough for such a family to have Su Li. How could it still have another real talent?

However, he was quite shocked. When he recommended Su Qingtan, he just checked his origin with a focus on a clean personal record, and he didn’t remember where he came from.

“Second Sister, your hand… was it injured by your mother?”

Su Qingtan’s eyes were full of anger. He couldn’t calm down as usual. When he first met Second Sister after he came back, she was injured. It made him feel guilty. He once swore that he would never let Second Sister be injured again. However, in the past year, Second Sister must have suffered a lot of grievances.

“You can rest assured. This time I will take you to Yunjing. I can protect you. I will never let you be bullied.”

“Eldest Brother, I am fine…”

Hearing the dialogue between them, Ling Qinglan had an indifferent look, yet Yan Shixun looked sullen.

Was Su Li beaten cruelly by her mother at home?

Su Qingtan directly identified that such a serious injury was made by her mother. What kind of miserable life did Su Li have at home previously?
