CHAPTER 843: CHAPTER 847: MASTER’S MIGHT (25)

When the lightning attached to Su Xuan’s body dissipated, Su Li could finally see his appearance clearly.

Other than a trace of black blood at the corner of his mouth and his slightly disheveled clothing, he wasn’t too much in disarray.

But his cultivation.....

Kept fluctuating between Divinity Transformation and Early Stage of Mahayana, eventually settling powerlessly at Perfect Divinity Transformation.

He just failed to advance?

However, it’s not like he gained nothing; even if advancing next time will be much more difficult, the Heavenly Thunder did wipe out his Heart Demon completely.

The black spiritual seal on Su Xuan’s forehead and the red marks at the corners of his eyes disappeared, though there was still some red bloodshot in his eyes, his overall demeanor seemed much more calm.

With a pale face, he looked deeply at Su Li and simply asked, "Is there no possibility between us anymore?"

Su Li: "Yes."

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan turned and left, taking a step that spanned more than ten meters, and quickly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

Although she was amazed at Su Xuan’s rapid change in attitude, she didn’t have much heart to explore it further.

Their bond had already severed in her past life.

After Su Xuan left, Su Li stayed at the Su Family for a total of ten years. After seeing off the two elders, she also left.

This time, it was a complete departure; her bond with the Su Family was over.

------------------

Extra (1)

Su Li stayed at the Su Family for a total of ten years, long enough that her patience was nearly exhausted.

Distance does indeed create beauty.

Anyone, once they’ve been together long enough, will inevitably have some conflicts, especially when there are fools who are never satisfied interfering.

On the day of the anomaly in Jiangnan City, with people from the Xu Yan family subtly hinting, many in the city knew that Miss Su, who used to cultivate and seek the Way, had returned home upon achieving cultivation.

Regardless of whether they had ties to the Su Family or not, people in the city all sent in visiting cards, hoping to visit.

For a time, the Su Family was bustling with visitors.

Those with close personal ties went directly to Su Bingchao, Mrs. Su, and Su Qing.

Due to past affections, they couldn’t agree but also couldn’t refuse, so they turned to Su Li.

Su Li is someone who absolutely won’t wrong herself; if she says no, then it’s no.

Even when relatives from Mrs. Su’s maiden family visited in person, she didn’t show up.

Gradually, gaps began to grow between family members who were originally harmonious.

Su Li just felt it was a waste of her time, so she increasingly shut herself away.

The reason she stayed here was only because of her original parents.

A mortal’s life is short, just a few fleeting decades before it’s over.

Being able to accompany her original parents to the end of their lives was considered fulfilling her filial duty for her original self, and she could afford to spend a few years on it.

But just because Su Li didn’t seek trouble didn’t mean trouble wouldn’t find her.

In the past, the Su Family, because Su Xuan left a Communication Talisman, brought about a catastrophe, showing the world’s greed.

And now that she, a living immortal, stood tall at the Su Family, even more people racked their brains trying to think of ways.

Except for the Xu Yan family, nobody saw Su Li’s power that day, and although they’ve heard of the Goddess’s ability, not many felt fear in their hearts; many harbored wild ideas.

Today, Su Bingchao, junto with Mrs. Su, brought Su Qing to knock on Su Li’s door.

Because of various matters, with Su Li’s coolness towards them, the relationship between Su Bingchao and Mrs. Su and their younger sister/sister-in-law had dropped sharply; it wasn’t as harmonious as before.

There was an indistinct, hidden resentful energy.

Of course, this was all one-sided from them, while Su Li didn’t take it to heart.

"Is something the matter?"

Su Li lazily slouched on the couch, scanning the trio from the Su Family with a hint of confusion.

In the past two years, both sides were well aware of their relationship, so unless it was something important, the couple typically wouldn’t show up in front of her.

Today, not only did both of them come, but they also brought Su Qing along.

Upon hearing Su Li’s inquiry, Mrs. Su awkwardly smiled, glanced at Su Bingchao, and somewhat at a loss for words.

Su Qing, unable to hold back, spoke first, eagerly explaining the reason for his visit in one go.

Su Li cast a sidelong glance, looking Su Qing up and down.

Recalling when they first met, she used to like this nephew of hers quite a bit.

But now, he had grown more arrogant and had even started to arrange things for her.

Su Qing was made somewhat stiff by Su Li’s gaze, feeling a budding inclination to retreat, but remembering Qiao’er’s tearful eyes, his heart softened, and determination returned to his eyes.

"Auntie, it’s just a small effort for you. Please help your nephew."

"As long as you agree to heal Qiao’er’s father, the Rong family will agree to marry Qiao’er to me."

Su Li: "Everyone has their destined fate; I can’t rashly interfere and disturb mortal fate."

Su Qing, staring with wide eyes as if he couldn’t believe Su Li refused, impulsively asked, "Aren’t you an Immortal? How can you not even save a single ordinary person?"

Ignoring Su Qing’s resentment, Su Li just calmly replied, "I am merely someone who cultivates; I am not to be considered an Immortal."

Su Qing: "You just don’t want to save him."

After saying that, he angrily stormed out.

Mrs. Su worriedly ran a few steps forward, calling out, "Ah Qing...."

Seeing her son quickly disappear, Mrs. Su frowned, turned her head, and said, "Ah Li, please help your nephew."

"Since separating from Xu Huaxing, he hasn’t cared much about his marriage. He’s finally taken a liking to the Rong family’s daughter, and it would be a shame to miss out on this."

"Moreover, I’ve seen Rong Qiao’er; she really is outstanding."

"If not for Rong family’s requests, with Qiao’er’s status as the legitimate eldest daughter, she wouldn’t possibly marry into the Su Family as a second wife."

Mrs. Su was about to continue, but Su Li had already grown impatient and waved her hand dismissively, saying, "In matters of love, it’s important that both parties are willing. It’s obvious that the Rong family’s girl isn’t sincere towards Su Qing, lest we have another Xu Huaxing situation."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Su’s face immediately changed, growing dark and silent.

The atmosphere in the air gradually became tense. Always silent while standing aside, Su Bingchao suddenly spoke, "Ah Li, I beg you as your brother, please do this one thing for Su Qing."

"Fei’er is already ruined; I only have Su Qing left as my solitary seed. I just want him to be happy."

Su Li’s gaze was sharp as a sword, shooting towards Su Bingchao as she lowered her voice, "Are you blaming me?"

Su Bingchao lowered his head and softly said, "No."

Su Li’s gaze swept over the couple and suddenly she laughed.

Though Su Bingchao verbally said no, his demeanor clearly showed he held resentment against her.

"Ha, you dare blame others when it’s your own fault for not teaching your daughter well, truly amusing."
