Chapter 318 - It’s You
Chapter 318 It’s You
Hearing Ling Mo’s words, Qiu Meng was amazed immediately.
If it was before, she would never believe it, and would even reprimand Ling Li for being casual and troublesome. But considering that he went home with the head of Dongfang Xiao, overthrew the powerful Dongfang Family, secretly protected Ling Family for several years… and had all kinds of powerful means, she had to believe it.
Ling Li, her son, was the Hierarch of Yinmo Cult, the supreme power!
Seeing the twinkling light in his mother’s eyes, Ling Li knew that she had believed it. After a moment of silence, he continued to speak, “Mom, Ling Qinglan will handle the business of the royal family of Dahan Country, and I will…”
“Are you going to find Su Li?”
Qiu Meng interrupted abruptly, and her expression was gentle.
Knowing that Qiu Meng had known his intention, Ling Li was surprised slightly.
Qiu Meng shook her head and sighed, “I’m your mother. Even if you have restrained yourself for more than a year, I know that you can’t forget her.”
Ling Li slightly trembled, and then took a deep breath and bowed to Qiu Meng,
“I don’t believe that Li… would leave me alone for no reasons! If I don’t figure it out, I will die with… an everlasting regret! So… this family is left to you and second brother, and I…”
Before Ling Li finished, Qiu Meng interrupted him in a panic, blaming, “How can you say something unlucky, little child! I’m still young. Besides, the biggest obstacle has been swept by you, and you are the biggest contributor to this family. I can help you solve some trivial matters. Go and find her!”
Qiu Meng smiled softly, “I am still waiting to my grandson!”
“Thanks, mom!”
Ling Li turned a little more relaxed, “In three years, I will come back to visit you, so, please don’t worry about me, and I will set off!”
After he finished the words, he bowed again, then turned around and walked out without hesitation. He rode on a horse that was already prepared, and went away.
He couldn’t wait for any longer.
Qiu Meng, whose sight followed her son to the gate, watched her son leaving. The tenderness on her face instantly turned into bitterness. She turned back to the room and sat quietly for a while. She sat in front of the dresser and opened the drawer at the top of the small cabinet. She took out rolls of portraits.
“These are the best innocent girls in Yunjing City. Nothing of them is worse than Su Li except their appearance, is it? Ling Li… Why do you have to put all the eggs in one basket!”
Qiu Meng sighed with tears.
She was selfish after all. During the three months after Su Li disappeared, she searched for nothing. So, she began to select a new wife for Ling Li secretly.
However, on the one hand, Ling Li’s reputation was so bad that no girl was willing to marry him; on the other hand, she knew her son’s single-mindedness and did not dare to take them out.
Ling Li always stood by his words. If she forced him to marry others, she might lose his trust.
Just as she hesitated, Ling Li’s hidden identity was revealed and he became so famous that countless young girls took him as their ideal lover. Today she had known Ling Li’s determination, so, these portraits…
Thinking of this, she threw all the portraits into the brazier, and suddenly there was a blaze of fire in the brazier. The light and shadow on Qiu Meng’s face shined.
…
Ling Li got rid of the burden of Ling Family. After he left his family, he was in a hurry without eating or drinking for seven days, and finally he arrived at Qinghe Province.
He had been monitoring Su Family and Dongfang Rui’s Family for more than a year, but found nothing. Linli Building in Yunjing City was closed six months ago. So, the only clue that could be explored now was…
Linli Building, which located at Qinghe Province.
A year and a half ago, “Mr. Li” appeared to rescue him. Su Li almost disappeared at the same time!
Besides, Linli Building in Yunjing City was closed a few days later. It might not be a coincidence.
While dealing with Dongfang Family, he went to Linli Building more than once to visit “Mr. Li”, but he was rejected with the answer “He is travelling all over the world”. And he even didn’t see any protectors of Linli Building.
His suspicion became stronger and he wanted to explore the truth at Linli Building in Qinghe Province.
“Good osmanthus wine, come in and taste it, please!”
“Liehuo Spirits, authentic Northland wine. It’s a pity not to drink!”
“…”
Ling Li changed his appearance. As he entered Linli Building, his ears were filled with greetings and visiting. He looked around and found that the lobby on the first-floor was almost full of guests and most of them were martial arts.
In Qinghe Province, Linli Building even replaced Tianya House as the favorite place of the martial arts.
Ling Li found a table and sat down. Soon, the waiter came. After ordering a pot of osmanthus wine, he looked around casually, and found it was really odd but harmonious that a lot of ordinary people and the warriors were drinking together.
But when he saw the wooden sign “Disruptor, die!” hanging not far from the entrance of the lobby, he suddenly understood something.
The power of Linli Building was beyond expectation. If Linli Building was ambitious enough, the king of the secular world would not be from Yinmo Cult.
Although he had contacted with “Mr. Li” for several years, he had never been able to figure out what this person was thinking about, and the meaning of what he had done.
“My guest, here is your osmanthus wine, and enjoy yourself!”
The waiter brought a clear and transparent golden flagon and stepped back. Ling Li glanced at him without asking. He knew the operating mode of Linli Building. These waiters were cultivated by Linli Building, and were not from casual employment. It would only make a fuss if he asked now.
With the familiar taste flowing into his throat, Ling Li thought something for a while, and then his psychic awareness quietly spread.
Although it had only been for more than a year, with the help of the elixir given by “Mr. Li”, his cultivation had improved at an extremely scary rate. Now he had reached the fifth hurdle of the longevity realm and he was as powerful as the snake demon he met in the past.
Because his psychic awareness was in such a high level, no one in Linli Building could notice it. Even Fang Mu, who was stationed here, had not found anything.
“Nothing?”
After his psychic awareness returned to his body, Ling Li frowned. Linli Building’s top floor was clean but deserted, and no one had lived here in the past few years.Access v ip novel
Could it be true that Mr. Li traveled all over the world as people of Linli Building told him?
Or did Mr. Li live in somewhere else?
After drinking a cup of wine, Ling Li pressed the upset in his mind. If Mr. Li could not be found, he could not find Su Li. This was a dead knot.
“The young man in white with inborn peak hurdle on the third floor must be a protector, or…”
Thinking of this, Ling Li dropped a bar of silver and turned away.
After nightfall, Fang Mu ended his practice, and shook his head. Then he helplessly left Linli Building.
“There are various nimbuses in the city. Staying here was not beneficial for my cultivation. Fortunately, I only have to stay one day a month. I don’t know when I can break through into the longevity realm. If I can make it, I don’t need to continue to breathe the dirty air.”
Fang Mu lamented that Fang Yuan had set a lot of rules after managing Linli Building. He also had to strictly abide them, otherwise he would be punished.
Seeing he acted in such a way, Ling Li, who hid in the dark, immediately wanted to force him to tell the truth, following him quietly like a ghost.
Following Fang Mu’s flight, Ling Li was out of the city. He was more and more excited on the way. In the end, he was stunned completely after he watched Fang Mu entering the valley which he missed very much.
It… was Su Li’s yard in the valley?
Was it possible that… Su Li was here!
Right, there were only a few places where Su Li was used to live. He shouldn’t have forgotten it where they lived together for months in the past!
Ling Li couldn’t restrain his breath. But as he took a step, there were two rays of light appeared suddenly in front of him. The coldness in the ray of light made him a little shocked, so, he immediately lifted his sword to block.
Clang!!
How amazing the battle between two people in longevity realm was! The loud sound of the weapon collision immediately shocked everyone in the valley.
Ling Li looked slightly serious, but he didn’t leave. Seeing the appearance of the man who shot at him, he could not help frowning, for the one was ugly and drunk.
He had never seen him.
“Master in the fifth hurdle of longevity realm, thanks for your mercy.”
The drinker’s eyes were scorching, and there was a sense of fight in it, “My name is Yue Wuhai, Second Head of Spiritual Realm. May I have your name?”
Spiritual Realm？
Ling Li was shocked. Yinmo Cult came from the spiritual circle, so, he had known the famous Spiritual Building. The person in front of him was the “Second Head”. Although Ling Li didn’t know his specific status, he guessed that the one in the third hurdle of longevity realm must be a top man.
Was Spiritual Realm willing to help me find Su Li?
Thinking of this, Ling Li gave up the idea of using a pseudonym. He folded his hands to greet, “I have heard so much about you. I’m… Ling Li!”
Hum?
Yue Wuhai’s face suddenly changed. He had lost the interest and said coldly, “You are Ling Li?!”
Ling Li was surprised that this person seemed to recognize him, but how could he…
“It’s you. Go to hell!”
Ling Li never denied it. Yue Wuhai was instantly full of killing sense. No matter how large the gap between himself and Ling Li was, he tried his best to combat.
Ling Li was stunned and tried to keep the distance with him. At the same time, he said, “Sir! I have never met you. Why do you want to kill me? Is there any misunderstanding?”
“I ask you if you are the Hierarch of Yinmo Cult?”
Being unable to beat Ling Li, Yue Wuhai backed to his place and spoke again.
Ling Li was stunned for a moment, and then he kept silent. Since there was no misunderstanding, then…
“Enough!”
In the valley, there was a cold shout suddenly. Yue Wuhai stared at Ling Li unwillingly for a few times and had to retreat with his killing sense to stand aside.
Ling Li became more confused, because he felt the person who had just made a sound… owned higher status. Well, he also wanted to figure out the reason why people in Spiritual Realm hated him so much but never shot when he was weak.
After a while, a thin and tall figure came slowly from the darkness. Shrouded in mist, he was not seen clearly. Faint silence came from his body, as if there was nothing in the world that was worthy of his nostalgia.
Knowing his cultivation was only in the third hurdle of longevity realm, Ling Li was confused why Yue Wuhai obeyed his orders.
The face of the man in the dark gradually became clear.
Ling Li opened his eyes widely, “It’s you!”
