The Female Cannon Fodder With Boundless Merits
Chapter 830 - 834: Master’s Might (12)
CHAPTER 830: CHAPTER 834: MASTER’S MIGHT (12)
Su Xuan didn’t say a word, his face was tense, looking as if a storm was brewing.
Leng Piaopiao had been beside her master for so long, she never thought that her master would have moments of such emotional outburst.
In her eyes, her master was always a calm and steady presence, unfazed even if Mount Tai collapsed before him.
His confidence came from his strength.
Leng Piaopiao believed that no one could be stronger than her master.
But now... she seemed to catch a hint of vulnerability and confusion on his face.
From his back, he seemed like a lonely figure against the cold winds of the Yi River.
Leng Piaopiao shook her head vigorously, feeling that she must have been hallucinating earlier.
Someone as strong as her master couldn’t possibly show such emotions.
He must be just too angry right now, that’s all.
Leng Piaopiao pouted, slowly moved to Su Xuan’s side, and asked indignantly, "Master, is it her again... has she caused trouble again?"
For the first time, Su Xuan ignored Leng Piaopiao, his gaze fixed steadfastly on the ruined house.
The Sect Leader suddenly realized something, scanning the area with a puzzled look, asking, "Where’s Su Li?"
Now even Leng Piaopiao noticed something amiss. This was Su Li’s residence, the house was destroyed, so where was she?
Su Xuan paid no attention to the two, his hands on either side slowly clenching into fists, then relaxing again.
His small action went unnoticed by everyone, as they were all focused on the matter of Su Li’s disappearance.
The Sect Leader was the most astonished; Su Li was not here, and when he had covered the entire mountain gate with his divine thought earlier, he hadn’t sensed her presence.
The Sect Leader had an ominous feeling rising within.
Like Changli, he had reached the Divinity Transformation Realm. Those at this level could already begin to sense the existence of rules.
Thus, certain fleeting emotions in his heart might just be hints from the Heavenly Dao, which couldn’t be ignored.
With this in mind, the Sect Leader quickly expanded his divine thought again, conducting a meticulous search, but still found nothing.
Su Li seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Someone capable of taking a person away right under his nose... there were only a few people in Luli World with such ability.
The Sect Leader’s heart tightened, immediately suspecting a conspiracy.
In contrast, Su Xuan, after standing silently for a while, clawed his five fingers at the void.
From the ruins of the courtyard, a brocade cloth was drawn out, appearing in Su Xuan’s hand.
"This bond of husband and wife, is tied for three lifetimes... should the ties not fit, then enemies they come... with different hearts, a union is hard, meet with kinsfolk, each return to their path. May the husband find the Dao after parting, and pair again with an Immortal Goddess. Resentment released, knots untied, no more hate, from hence, a peaceful farewell, each find joy..."
As Su Xuan opened the brocade cloth, he made no effort to hide it, allowing the Sect Leader to see the words clearly.
Immediately, the Sect Leader looked up at the sky, at the ground, his eyes darting, pretending he hadn’t seen anything.
Leng Piaopiao tiptoed, hoping to see, but her face darkened further as Su Xuan suddenly crushed the cloth into pieces, scattering them with force.
"Find her."
"Ah..." the Sect Leader exclaimed in surprise.
"Find her," Su Xuan repeated, casting an indifferent glance at the Sect Leader, his face expressionless.
Leng Piaopiao was not pleased with this, saying, "Master, let’s not bother with her anymore, she’s always causing trouble."
Leng Piaopiao half-jokingly and half-seriously acted coy.
In the past, Su Xuan would just lightly flick her forehead affectionately and switch the topic.
While she might not have been happy, she would feel satisfied; it was an intimacy she shared with her master alone.
But this time... Su Xuan gave her a cold glance, and the icy stare seemed to freeze all her little thoughts.
Leng Piaopiao felt the pressure rolling her way.
In the past, she would hear other young disciples say their legs would go weak at the sight of Lord Changli, which she always found unbelievable.
Her master wasn’t as terrifying as they described.
But now, she profoundly understood everything those young disciples had said.
In that instant, her gaze did not dare to meet his.
Only after the fear, more resentment took root in her heart.
How could master treat her like this because of that woman.
She forgot, that the woman she mentioned was her Master.
The Sect Leader was reluctant, directly saying, "Since she chose to leave, why bring her back?"
However, the Sect Leader quickly realized that his words were inappropriate.
Regardless of the status and dignity of a God Transformation Daoist or the self-respect as a man, both are not to be offended.
Thus, he could understand why Changli would make such a decision.
Moreover, thinking carefully, Su Li had to be found.
A mortal woman causing such a stir under their noses and then disappearing, no matter how you look at it, there is quite a mystery.
"Alright, I’ll immediately have the disciples handle it."
Su Xuan pondered for a moment, then said, "The high-level magical treasure I intended to give you is now gone."
The Sect Leader stamped his foot, indignantly saying, "How can you go back on your word?"
Su Xuan: "My private stash may not have any good items left."
"How could that be..." The Sect Leader absolutely did not believe it.
Who could have plundered a God Transformation Daoist’s entire stash?
"It was Su Li."
"The prohibitions on my private stash were broken, it was done by the same person here."
Now, the Sect Leader was truly furious.
Find her, turn the world upside down, Su Li must be found.
Yet he still didn’t believe it and stormed angrily to Li Jianfeng’s forbidden area.
From afar, he could feel the lingering waves of a broken array; it was clear the opponent did not fear them.
The Sect Leader’s heart sank slowly, and when he reached the door of the private stash, his last flicker of hope was extinguished.
This is what despair looks like, the current scene is what despair truly is.
This is what anger looks like, the current state of his is what anger truly is.
Though this private stash belonged solely to Changli, Lord Changli being an elder of the Wuwei Sect, in a roundabout way, this private stash also belonged to the Wuwei Sect.
And now, they had their entire stash robbed right from their doorstep, how could they not be enraged and furious?
"Pass down the order, Wuwei Sect traitor Su Li stole a major treasure from the sect, from today onwards, we are searching for her throughout the realm."
The Sect Leader’s voice echoed throughout the entire sect.
All the disciples of the Wuwei Sect, whether they were in seclusion, practicing alchemy, or cultivating, no one was excluded, everyone received the Sect Leader’s transmission.
Most said Su Li was finally going to pay dearly, only Si Yijun of Medicine Peak was a bit worried, his mind filled with speculative thoughts.
That poor woman, could it be she finally decided to reveal that dark secret, hence suffered retaliation?
Would he, being in the know, also face retaliation?
Si Yijun felt goosebumps arise and dared not think further.
