Lady Su's Revenge

Chapter 330 Selecting Children

Chapter 330 Selecting Children


Although Su Li’s move seemed to be quite powerless, because of her age, the young man took it as unworldly innocence and had no intention to blame her.


He followed Su Li’s eyesight and fell on Huang. He became gentler, “So she is your granddaughter?”


With the sudden sweat on his forehead, Huang bowed his head and said in courtesy, “Erya was originally from Su Family at the eastern village. After her father died, she was alone, so I kept her as a companion, and it has already been seven years.”


After the young man heard that, his will of taking her away became stronger.


In that case, after the death of Huang, Su Li would have no worries and be not stained with the mortal world. Since she had such a connection with cultivation, there would be no trouble in taking her to the sect.


“Okay, I already know that. Your granddaughter is indeed destined for cultivation, so I will take her back as one of my selected children with immortal latency. I will cultivate her carefully.”


As the young man said this, he frowned, for he didn’t want to ask Su Li’s name for a second time.


When Huang saw this, he said boldly but decisively, “Please forgive me! At that time, Erya did not have an official name, and I don’t accept education, so I boldly use a famous figure’s name to change her fate, while this name can’t be said in front of you!”


“Oh?”


The young man raised his eyebrows, and the woman in red couldn’t help but say something. She looked at Su Li who was overcautious and then mocked,


“A famous figure? Old man, the big man in your eyes may be even an ant for us.”


Huang smiled bitterly, hesitantly saying, “Erya, is called…”


The woman got impatient immediately when she saw that he was still hesitating.


Li Yuehuan, who was standing next to Yang Chunbo, seemed to understand that this was a good opportunity to stop Su Li from being immortal, so she immediately shouted, “Su Li! Her name is Su Li!”


As soon as this remark came out, the man and the woman in red changed their face greatly.


Wasn’t this name… of the one from Yuxu Sect…


“Senior Fellow Apprentice, you must never take her back to the sect!”


The woman in red raised her eyebrows and immediately stopped him, “Don’t forget the relations.h.i.+p between the headmaster and Su… and that person. If she knows that someone dares to use this name, and even is brought by us into the sect for cultivation, she will be furious and maybe we will all be involved!”


After the woman in red finished speaking, her face suddenly looked dreadful. If it was known that she said that person was an ant, wouldn’t it…


Thinking of this, the woman in red raised her head and stared at Li Yuehuan with a sharp gaze. Li Yuehuan was so scared that her face was pale, leaning herself against Yang Chunbo.


However, she felt a sense of joy in her heart, because she didn’t expect that speaking Su Li’s name out would really make her lose the chance to become an immortal.


As a result, wouldn’t she have more chance?


Yang Chunbo was helpless and looked at the old village head for help, but the old village head was standing beside obediently, daring not to move, for fear of offending the immortals.


The young man stood aside and frowned. Apparently, he couldn’t make a final decision for considering what his junior sister apprentice said.


At this time, the villagers in Tiehe Village came with their children, so the young man was slightly recovered and temporarily put Su Li aside, carefully selecting the children.


The woman in red also withdrew her gaze for the time and selected the children with her senior fellow apprentice.


The test of spiritual root could only be carried out in the sect. Therefore, the two who went out to receive disciples for their sect could only choose the children from their appearance.


Whoever looked good would get the chance to have a better fate.


While quietly watching the two remove those with ordinary looks on one side and their parents be full of resentment and loss, Su Li thought about something in her heart.


There was no fairness in the world.


People were born unequally. Some people were born to be the heirs of the headmasters who had n.o.ble ident.i.ties and inexhaustible resources for cultivation, while others were born in poor families who hadn’t necessarily have a good end though they worked hard in their whole life.


Therefore, some people said that one must accept his fate.


Su Li slightly narrowed her eyes. Over these years, she had learned the events that happened millennium years ago intermittently from Huang. Although there were many ambiguities, she also speculated many things.


The broken mirror must inevitably be related to the old beggar, and the number of cultivators who died due to the broken mirror was over 100,000. This number far exceeded the number of cultivators in Jiuzhou Region who entered the illusion.


She remembered that the sect genius who entered Reincarnation Mirror with her at that time hadn’t reach a thousand, but the number she heard now was actually expanded by a hundredfold!


“Other regions were also involved, even… the entire Qingshui Circle!”


Su Li suddenly understood something, for this conclusion was not difficult to guess.


No matter whether it was Ling Li or Fang Yuan, or even Qu Qingning, they were not people in Jiuzhou Region, otherwise she could have some memories.


For the entire Qingshui Circle, her death seemed insignificant, and even Yuxu Sect was only a p.a.w.n.


Turned on Reincarnation Mirror and then died. That was… her life!


All kinds of complicated thoughts struck her mind, and suddenly Su Li gave birth to another thought. When this thought first appeared, it was like a bone maggot in the heart, which couldn’t go away anymore.


Although Reincarnation Mirror was the ancient treasure of the world, after all, she was the only one who inherited the secret opening method, and even the old beggar said that she was the half master of Reincarnation Mirror.


If she didn’t open Reincarnation Mirror for Yuxu Sect in the past, maybe she was now a powerful cultivator in the free world, and even become one of the top masters with the right to decide things in Qingshui Circle with the help of Reincarnation Mirror!


But at the end she still… cared about her master and the sect that she had been in for nine hundred years, so she opened Reincarnation Mirror resolutely based on her body.


One wrong step, all lost!


She made the decision, just like sending a plate of fish to a group of robbers. From then on, she was on the chopping block, letting all the forces of Qingshui Circle eat her and send countless p.a.w.ns to plunder everything that should belong to her!


Would Ling Li and Fang Yuan… be also the p.a.w.ns deliberately arranged by those masters?


Su Li clenched her fists hidden in her sleeves gradually, with her lips pale and her eyes darkened, and finally… she suddenly looked relaxed.


She did not want to think about the answer.


When she re-cultivated to a certain level, all the truth would be revealed naturally, and then… she would be ready to accept the cruelty.


After a moment of her recovery, the two of Huajian Sect finally checked the dozens of eligible children in Tiehe Village. Finally, the young man chose Yang Chunbo who had accepted education, while couldn’t make the decision for another candidate yet.


The woman in red picked two boys who looked rather intelligent, and did not look at Li Yuehuan who was so longing, for she didn’t like to take the one who was too jealous with her.


The young man glanced at Su Li who lowered her head and wondered something, and then finally fell on Li Yuehuan. The latter immediately tightened her body, straining the disordered hair in her ears nervously, with a trace of fear in a panic. She looked so pathetic that other teenagers in the village secretly swallowed.


But the young man showed a cold face. Climbing all the way from a disciple of Waimen Branch to an inherited disciple, he didn’t know how many young girls wanted to climb onto his bed. Li Yuehuan looked like the same as those mean women, which made him lose interest.


Sighing secretly, the young man finally fell on Su Li.


If he didn’t see Su Li before, he wouldn’t have such a high demand for children with immortal latency. It was like tasting delicious food. Once the most delicious food was put first, other food would become insipid and tasteless.


“Well, it’s fine to have some troubles, and it may be not trouble but…”


The young man pondered this in his heart, and finally beckoned to Su Li and said, “Come here and follow me.”


Su Li was stunned in that she didn’t expect that the young man would choose her even disregarding her name. Although she felt weird, she still approached the young man obediently and bowed her head silently.


“Senior Fellow Apprentice!”


The woman in red got anxious immediately, but before she could speak something, the young man waved and interrupted her, “It doesn’t matter, and I have my own discretion in this matter.”


After he finished speaking, he turned his head and asked, “Su Li, your name would cause many troubles, so I will give you a new name. Do you mind?”


Su Li suddenly understood his plan.


Huang became excited after hearing it, and he felt that this method was very good, but Su Li didn’t respond. He became anxious and urged in a low voice, “Li, promise!”


Although after Su Li entered the sect, he might never see her again in this life, as a grandfather, who didn’t want his granddaughter to have a better life?


Knowing his concern and eagerness from his words, Su Li was moved slightly. She nodded and said, “Please give me the name, your immortal.”


In such a situation, there was no way for her to refuse. If she really refused, she would probably lose the chance to join the sect and even be killed by the young man if he was mean.


In that case, she must have to reveal the true cultivation as resistance, and even if she killed the people who knew it, she would certainly attract the attention of Huajian Sect, then… Yuxu Sect and even more people.


She couldn’t bear such consequences now.


The young man was of course unclear that Su Li thought so much in just a few seconds, and he even didn’t know that he would be killed almost. When he saw Su Li’s ingenious behaviors and her pure pneuma, which made him feel very comfortable, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth,


“It’s so good. Since you are willing, I must give you a name carefully. On the way back to the sect, I will tell you. If you succeed in your cultivation in the future, you can change it back to your original name.”


“Thank you, your immortal.”


Su Li saluted respectfully, but she knew that the latter part of the man’s words was completely polite words. If she changed her name without reaching the level of him, she would cause his unhappiness.


The young man told his junior sister apprentice and the other three not to reveal Su Li’s real name, then let the four children bid farewells with their families, and finally took the two children away by using the clouds with his junior sister apprentice.
