Ceo’s Fierce Lady Immortal - Chapter 245
Sang Shui saw how Su Ci Yi’s face twisted and he had a slight doubt, ” Yi, do you know who might be this person?”
Su Ci Yi nodded but didn’t voice her confirmation.
What she did to Su Ming was her bottom line that whenever the woman’s name was heard, an inexplicable feeling surging deep in her core.
Right now, she had been level up to the divine spirit stage but even with her own cultivation; she had a doubt that she could go as to dare a fight on her. However, there might a way to undo Su Ming’s spell. There has to be a way that is within her ability.
Su Ci Yi had already decided, and it’ll not solve any problem if she ever stayed in this place. She got to find the sword, or at least track it down. Since it had been equipped with spiritual essence, if this will be in her vicinity, she will be able to sniff it out.
“Alright. I’ll go back to the City and find it. However, promised me one thing when I obtained it.” She was referring to Lingua Liu, who had been silent the moment he told them of how it was lost.
” What is it?”
“Give me full authority to have the whole ownership of such a sword.”
Lingua Liu’s eyes bulge. The sword was their ancestor’s property. He could tolerate letting it be borrowed for once in a while. But to be given other than the person outside their tribe, it’s like they will be robbed of their own property!
It was not a thing negotiable in the first place.
“This… matter, although we are very grateful for your assistance, and you are deemed as our benefactor. But such a thing… you’re asking a big favor, ma’am. W-e, how can I let those that belong to my ancestor be snatched away by a stranger?”
Su Ci Yi’s eyebrow quirked up.
So, he’s not willing to give it up.
She won’t risk searching for it if she knew it’ll not end up in her hand. Added to the fact that it was lost due to Baronette’s instigation. The woman might have something to do with the conspiracies that had happened in this place.
Was this coincidental that she came to this place also?
” How could I search for it? Then it’d better be lost forever.” Su Ci Yi complained.
So, Lingua Liu has this kind of character as well?
The atmosphere had gone astray and Sang Shui was placed in the middle.
But no matter how the situation is in the array, their kind is to prioritize the safety and peace of his land. If this meant losing all their property, then it’ll not be a hindrance.
“Chief, I dare to say to let it go. We already lost the weapon and it was all due to our negligence. We don’t deserve the sword at all.”
” Sang Shui, you only met her and now you are siding on her side?
” No, it wasn’t like that. Please don’t misunderstand. My heart always lies on this land. This is where I grew up and I don’t want to see it all disappeared one day. The sword is just a sword. No one can even use it, so what was its use, anyway?
“Shui, you don’t know what you are talking about…”
“Then Chief enlighten me. If it’s on my part even if she needed all my property I won’t hesitate to give it at all. As long as the situation could eventually subside and help.”
“You!”
Su Ci Yi: Ai, this Sang Shui really deserved the oscar’s heroic awards of the day.
Sang Shui took a peek at Su Ci Yi but eventually returned his gaze unto him. “So please chief, you better make a choice.”
Seeing the argument had gone into this commotion, she already stepped in. The two had already been bickering and it’s dizzying on her head.
“Alright. I won’t insist on the sword. Just let me borrow it.”
“No!” Sang Shui rejected her idea. ” It’s alright. We’ll give it to you. In exchange, I will donate all the property of my ancestors on the state. In exchange for the sword.”
Hey Hey Hey! Sang Shui, aren’t you a little hasty?
Lingua Liu was stump on his own two feet. Although the Shui clan had this reputation that will never bow down to anyone once they already made their decision, however, this was going overboard! His ancestor’s sentiments and their legacy…how could he let it slip off and even make as a bargaining tool.
” Chief, decide firmly. I will not hesitate to give up all. How about you?”
Erm, ” This…”
“Alright. How could I let all your ancestor’s property strip off to you? They will haunt me down and even chase my soul when I went into their place. Anyway, the sword has been lost. Now do whatever you want kids. You’re making me the villain here.”
“Thank you.”
“Ms. Su. I will leave the sword in your care. Your the only one who can find that thing and I leave the work to you.” He turned and peeked at the man, whom he treated like his own child but when he found his woman, even he will neglect his own father.
He tapped this child’s shoulders and gave a little advice, ” Do not be hasty at times. It’s good to know you carried the virtues of your bloodline. But sometimes, think about your own security. Don’t be too selfless or it’ll be your ruin. Human nature had a tendency to become selfish, but you don’t qualify for it. Ai, sometimes I think that your not a human but a saint.”
Sang Shui smiled and cupped his two hands as his deepest sincerity.
” This subordinate was too overbearing earlier. Please do me a favor to forgive me, Sir.”
Ha! This kid really. It’s a good thing that he was contained in this place or else he wouldn’t know what would happen to this naive child when he went somewhere else. He’s too kind for his own good!
“Oh by the way, when are you leaving?” Lingua Liu looked at Su Ci Yi. He knew sooner or later she’ll leave to find that sword.
“We’re leaving tomorrow in the afternoon Chief and when the path is safe to trail.” It was Sang Shui who interjected, specifying his firm decision already.
Lingua Liu looked at him blankly. As if he’s stupified at the moment.
“Huh?” Lingua Liu uttered in disbelief.
“Say what?” Su Ci Yi was also surprised.
“I’ll come with her. This is an issue of our tribe. And as our representative, I should assist her.” Sang Shui nonchalantly declared as he dusted off a speck of small dirt on his clean white robe.
Hold on, kid. Who’s the Chief here? Why are you making your own decision!
