Lady Su’s Revenge-Chapter 585 - Master of Qingshui Circle!
Hum!!!
Su Li’s words was like a hot rock throwed in the lake.
The motionless ice mounds suddenly began to move!
Swish!
Swish!!
Swish!!!
The ice mounds rushed towards them!
It sounded like an array of footfalls. The tension here was stifling and dizzying which could make people vomit.
“Master, should we take shelter…”
Black Lotus was too scared to have a pale complexion. Hong Baizhu was quivering. She felt the pressure from these mounds of her kind, so she was afraid.
Su Li still looked calm. Her eyes fixed on one point.
It was a source of deep red that radiated red lines which had the circumference of an arm. Then the lines turned into a big red net, which completely closed all the channels to the outside world.
When the most fearful mound in the front touched the lines, all the red lines shot numerous fine wires as if they were alive. The fine wires tightly wound around the ice mounds!
“Roar!!”
Ice mounds wailed. Numerous fine red lines broke, but more and more red lines came to replenish. The mounds couldn’t break free from these red lines.
“Howl!”
“Roar!!”
“Boohoo…!!”
The ice mounds wailed constantly. Su Li didn’t feel the sounds horrible, but she could tell sorrow and a little…hopelessness from the sounds.
“Are they whispering in my ears?”
Su Li suddenly heard Black Lotus’s trembling voice, “Little Su Li, you see… What it is?!”
Um?
Su Li looked at the place where Black Lotus pointed. Then she saw a nondescript black stone tablet at the red source.
“A tablet?!”
Su Li was a little surprised. She recollected the information she received at the end of her own divine awareness. She didn’t care about hundreds of thousandsof ice mounds behind the tablet. And she strode to the tablet.
The stone tablet was as tall as a human. But it was still shorter than Su Li. It didn’t make Su Li scared. However, the three vigorous and forceful words on the tablet shocked Su Li’s soul. She couldn’t come to her sense for a while.
“Li! Hen! Tablet!”
Black Lotus screamed hurriedly,
“Great Emperor Lihen’s Lihen Tablet is here?! How is this possible? He is the supreme great emperor of Human Clan! It is said that Great Emperor Lihencracked down evil spirits of Demon Clan, and then perished together with Demon Emperor! Lihen Tablet repressed hundreds of thousands of demons. But it doesn’t comply with what we saw before!”
Su Li habitually squinted and said softly, “You also said it is a legend. There are too many negative rumors about me in the outside world. How do you view me??”
Black Lotus was speechless. He gave a complicated look and said mournfully, “The divine awareness here definitely belongs to Great Emperor Lihen. The people who are repressed here are not the evil spirits but his clansmen. It is such great honor to be Great Emperor Lihen’s clansman. But they all became ghosts. It’s so miserable.”
“Sometimes things go wrong unexpectedly. There are so many powerful things in the world. Even the powerhouse strong like Great Emperor Lihen couldn’t change his fate.”
Su Li murmured compassionately.
So, how about her?
She did these things after extraordinarily persistent and painstaking efforts. Moreover, the enemies she would confront were eighty percent of the holy sectsin Qingshui Circle!
How would it…turn out?
Hong Baizhu was surprised to find that the ice mounds fell silent. It seemed that they were infected by Su Li’s mood, so they calmed down. The red lines around the ice mounds also returned into the Lihen Tablet.
Suddenly, a gloomy but shrill voice, which sounded like that of an old man, came from the highest tombstone at the center of the ice mounds.
“Little girl, you’re not the Tablet Keeper. How do you come here?”
It seemed that Su Li got used to that unique synthesized voice of ghosts. She didn’t care about it. She nodded slightly and said in a manner which was neither humble nor pushy, “I can see the lines.”
After she said that, all the ice mounds fell silent.
After a while, that old ghost suddenly asked in a shriller voice, “What are you talking about? Obviously, you are a ghost! How can you light up the end of divine awareness?”
Su Li smiled. She tapped lightly in the air. Then ten lamps suddenly appeared which lighted up the space around her.
“Three spirits and seven souls! You are a human, but also a ghost! Evildoer!!”
Ghost energy rolled over and over in ice mounds. After a moment, when it subsided, an old figure came out from the tombstonesuddenly. Then he stopped one meter away from the Lihen Tablet.
“First Elder, don’t do that!”
“That evil tablet will damage your body!”
“First Elder, you…”
He acted so quickly. The surrounding silent ghosts anxiously dashed forward to stop him. At this time, the ice mounds became lively just like a market. Hong Baizhu felt that it was so interesting.
There were so many sane and sober ghosts. When her father was alive, there should be so many ghosts as well. What kind of clan was that of Great Emperor Lihen? It was so mysterious.
The old man gave a dry cough, “It doesn’t matter. I just wanted to say something. Quiet please.”
The old man seemed to have high prestige. After he said that, the surroundings became quiet again.
At this moment, Su Li also looked at the old man. His clothes conjured by himself was the same as those he wore when he was alive. Without his pale complexion and the ghost energy around him, he was just a simple and amiable old man.
Su Li smiled and asked softly, “Excuse me, are you one of the Great Emperor Lihen’s clansmen?”
“Great Emperor Lihen?”
The old man sighed, “Do the later ages call Shui like this?”
“Shui?”
The light in Su Li’s eyes flickered. She asked, “Is he your patriarch?”
“Who elsebut he.”
The old man shook his head and asked, “Do you even forget the master of this circle because it has been a long time?”
“The master of this circle?”
Su Li blinked. She was increasingly confused, “What are you talking about?”
The old man snorted, “Then what’s the name of this circle?”
Su Li was a little shocked and replied quickly, “Qingshui Circle!”
The old man laughed and said something shocking, “Yes. You listen to me carefully. Our patriarch’s name is Ling Qingshui! He is the Master of Qingshui Circle!”
“What?!”
Black Lotus couldn’t help but call out, “This circle was renamed Qingshui Circle because someone unified it?!I don’t remember anything. How could it be possible?!”
The old man found the sound’s source. He looked at the Black Lotus Ring on Su Li’s finger surprisingly, “This voice? Is you! Qian Mu?”
Black Lotus Ring suddenly became quiet.
Su Li raised her hand and turned the ring, “Black Lotus, the old man called you Qian Mu. Is it your name?”
“No, no.”
Black Lotus broke out into a cold sweat. But he still pretended to be calm, “I do not even remember my name. Who can remember me?”
Hearing these words, the old man frowned and insisted,
“You are Qian Mu! The King of Ghost Lotus,Qian Mu! You are the treasure of King of Ghosts and also his brother! In those day, Shui and King of Ghost were bosom friends. He often invited you for drinking. Do you forget all about it?!”
Black Lotus became so excited and then scolded, “Which Qian Mu? Damn old man, what are you talking about?! My name is Black Lotus, the treasure of Ghost Clan. As for Great Emperor Lihen, he was not in the same era with me. How could we be together?!”
Su Li stared at those two and lost in thought.
The old man frowned. After a moment, he laughed in a shrill but not weird voice, “Your pet phrase doesn’t change. You just have a memory disorder. Is it because Demon Clan hurt your foundation and then you lost memory or someone washed away your memory?”
“Stop talking shit!”
Black Lotus swore and kept silent for a moment. Then he said suddenly in a low voice, “Indeed…my real name is Qian Mu. But I don’t know why I don’t want to hear it. Is what you just said true?”
“No need to lie.”
The old man shook his head. Black Lotus fell into silence.
“Elder, do you know Qi Xianqing?”
The old man frowned and shook his head. Then a weak voice of a female ghost came from a short and small ice mound, “Is he still alive?”
Su Li raised her eyebrow, “Do you know him?”
“I know… We are cultivation companions…”
Then voice of that female ghost came again. But she panted heavily just after saying a few words. Her strength was very weak.
Su Li was surprised.
“At that time, ghosts and humans often intermarried. Don’t have a cow.”
The old man added. Then he spoke to that female ghost, “Girl, you can transmit the sound to me. I speak on your behalf.”
“Thank you, First Elder.”
The old man nodded and looked back at the Su Li, “That Qi Xianqing you mentioned was just an everyman in Ghost Clan. His strength was not strong. If there were no his cultivation companion, you wouldn’t get any information about him. If you have any question, just ask me.”
“Indeed, I have many other questions. Please give me the answers.”
Su Li nodded slightly. It seemed that Black Lotus… No, she shouldn’t call him Black Lotus now. The problem of his real body shouldn’t be caused by Qi Xianqing.
“Lihen… Why did the Master of Qingshui Circle seal you that time?”
“It’s because Qingshui Circle was in unimaginable danger. Even Shui couldn’t ensure his own safety. He could only seal us here so as to wait for the silver lining. Unfortunately, …while the priest climbs a foot, the devil climbs ten. Alas…”
Light flashed through Su Li’s eyes. She pointed at the stone tablet, “You’ve already failed. Why did the Lihen Tablet still seal you here? Then you all died here. It’s so miserable.”
After she said that, the old man’s pale face suddenly became ferocious. His hair floated in the air. Then he said, “It is Bai Mo who destroyed Shui’s treasure and found a special method to counter it. That is why I show up to see you.”
“Please go ahead.”
“If there were only the tablet’s containment, we, the clansmen of Ling Qingshui, could not be reduced to being like this. In those tens of thousands of years, the Demon Tablet had reached its limit and been at the brink of shattering. But two thousand years ago, a Tablet Keeper appeared! He…should go to the hell!”
