Lady Su’s Revenge - Chapter 642 Rules

“What?! You little bastard!”

The old man’s angry roar shook the whole house slightly, and the warriors who were busy in the other houses all smiled wryly.

It seemed that their good laugh, Young Lord, came back.

Standing in front of the window, Li Hong watched the Chief of the Thousand Cities Camp holding the inkstone and chasing after his son, who was about to become a King Warrior. He couldn’t help making an expression with envy and…nostalgia.

He had already forgiven his father, but he could hardly forgive himself…

Back then, he didn’t help in any way, because he was stunned by the palm of his father. When he woke up… he was already in Ma Camp, and all the people he knew were gone, including his younger sister, Li Qingling.

“Li Qing?”

At the reception area for warriors, the diplomatic administrator looked at Li Qing who looked young, and then he showed a big smile, “Welcome to join Ma Camp. We prefer young powerhouses like you. There are five people in your team. I will arrange a single-family residence for you on the top of the mountain city. What do you think?”

“Thanks a lot.”

Li Qing nodded and sighed inwardly. She was once also a little princess of the Thousand Cities Camp. She had a noble status. Although she never looked down upon the warriors who fought in her own camp, she had never felt how remarkable they were until she became one of them.

The reception area for warriors was very efficient. After not waiting too long, the administrator took Su Li and the others to a spacious and tall single-family courtyard, and gave the key to Li Qing. After Li Qing signed on the register, the procedure was over.

Su Li saw all these. Compared with Qingshui Circle, where were various cultivation methods to assist life, Chimo Circle was obviously more primitive. Even warriors lived with mortals, and there was no different between their lifestyles.

The rare experience made Su Li vaguely feel that her state of mind was elevated. Time permitting, she could try to break through the Star Path again!

There were exactly five rooms in the courtyard. Su Li still adhered to her own principles and chose the most inconspicuous one. Li Qing had no choice but to accept her action. After resting for a while, everyone reunited in the middle chamber.

“I haven’t taken a hot shower for a long time!”

Wu Rong put on the clean clothes that the reception area had just issued, and she stretched and yawned lazily, “Captain, the treatment of warriors is amazing.”

Li Qing looked at everyone. But Su Li still wore a black gauze dress and looked sick. Everyone else had a better mental outlook except for Su Li. Li Qing nodded gently and said,

“The operating rules of Thousand Cities Camp are perfect.”

She told her team members what her father had said to her, “Warriors spare no efforts to protect ordinary people. When they return to the camp, they will naturally get more enjoyment than ordinary people. The price is risking their lives. Ordinary people worship and admire warriors. They want to be one of them. So, the resource of warriors can continue to grow, and the residents of the entire camp can live and work in peace and contentment.”

“Wow!”

Wu Rong said excitedly, “Captain, you know a lot! I admire you so much!”

Seeing Wu Rong’s excited appearance, Li Dazhuang couldn’t help laughing. Then he was immediately slapped on his face. He said with a pitiful look, “I’m stupid enough, but you still beat me.”

Dai Hechun laughed violently, and then he was beaten by Wu Rong as well. Then a good team meeting suddenly became a mess.

Su Li watched this scene quietly, with a smile on her face. She seemed to see Linli Building…a long time ago… It was a pity that such a good time would never return.

At this moment, a figure flashed in front of her. Li Qing quietly left the main hall. Su Li thought about it for a second and followed.

In the sky, the moon was bright but the stars were scarce. In the place covered by Death Region, there wasn’t a single star.

Even so, Li Qing still liked to watch it.

The sky at night was really beautiful.

Hearing the footsteps stopping behind her, Li Qing sighed and turned her head with bright and gentle light flashing through her eyes, “Su Li, would you like to listen to my story?”

Su Li smiled slightly and said in a soft voice.

“I appreciate further details.”

Li Qing’s life experience was very simple. She grew up with her parents since she was a child. As the daughter of the Chief of the Thousand Cities Camp and the younger sister of a talented brother, she never knew what sorrow was until a disaster came without warning. She lost all the beautiful things suddenly.

“After waking up, I was lying beside many wandering warriors. The captain of the wandering warrior team rescued me.”

Li Qing’s tone was very soft. “He is determined to rescue more survivors from Death Region. He has taught me a lot. Although my talent is no match for that of my elder brother, I am strong enough. In just 20 years, I have changed from a fourth-class warrior to a sixth-class warrior like him. Then…we met a corpse monster!”

It seemed that it brought back painful memories. Li Qing’s eyes instantly reddened, “I don’t know where it is. I just know…there were so many corpse monsters. It was the first time that I had seen so many corpse monsters. I was stunned and I didn’t know how I escaped. But in the end… I was the one left alone again.

The other camps didn’t extend a rescue hand to my father back then. So, I had antipathy towards them. And… I also wanted to inherit the captain’s will, so I went on the road alone again. Maybe I was lucky enough. I successively ran a small camp in thirty years.”

Li Qing smiled, “But after all, it’s an illusion. Once I encounter a corpse monster, everything will be broken. Fortunately, because of you, I don’t have to face too much guilt. Thank you.”

“Never mind. I was saved by you, too.”

Su Li gently shook her head and turned her gaze onto the scattered lights below the mountain. She said calmly, “You must be mentally prepared.”

“Um?”

Li Qing was in a daze. Before she could speak, Su Li said again, “It is very likely that the same disaster will happen here.”

“What?!”

Li Qing’s eyes suddenly shrank, and countless tragic pictures flashed before her eyes.

Su Li looked serious, “I have no basis. But according to my feeling, the small corpse monster you encountered is not an ordinary one. I can still smell its faint pneuma on your body. So, I used some means to isolate its sensation. As long as it is still alive, it can expand the search area. It won’t take long to…”

“Find here!”

Li Qing’s face turned pale, and she gasped violently, “How is it possible? It’s obviously been fifty years! That thing has been killed by the Master of the circle!”

“What?”

“Corpse demon!”

Su Li raised her brows. It turned out that the small corpse monster had another name.

“No! I must tell this to the Chief of Ma Camp!”

Seeing her leaving, Su Li did not stop her.

Li Qing was very smart. She was a survivor of the disaster. She had a good reason for discovering the corpse demon. Su Li believed that Li Qing wouldn’t not spill the beans and cause trouble for her.

More importantly, she almost recovered from her injuries. But her power was still at the lowest point. She was not sure to defeat the so-called “corpse demon” alone, so she needed helpers.

As Li Qing said, it was the Master of the circle who made the final move to eliminate the hidden danger. In other words, the person was Chi Tian…

Chi Tian was definitely more powerful than a Great Emperor. Before Su Li got injured, she might fight without any further consideration. But her current power…was too weak.

Back in the room, Su Li did not continue to heal her wounds, and she finally put all her energy and vigor on Suiyu Tactics.

Not long after the Tianjiao Battle, she had known how to break through the third hurdle of Suiyu Tactics. But she didn’t have the energy to take care of it, just because she frequently got around between various holy sects. In addition, the progress of her cultivation was also slowed down.

Now that she was in another circle, she couldn’t go back to Qingshui Circle for the time being. Thinking too much was useless. She finally had time to practice hard.

The night was silent. In the next morning, Su Li’s door was knocked, which suddenly awakened her.

She got up to open the door, but she saw Li Qing outside the door with a long face.

Su Li raised her brows and asked, “Haven’t you seen him?”

Li Qing nodded and glanced at the door. Then she entered the room and closed the door. She sneered, “Everything went well in the camp yesterday. I thought there were not so many nasty things in Ma Camp before, but… I was wrong and I underestimated the human nature. The captain of stationing at the top of the mountain… It is such an important position. I don’t know how much important information was blocked by him. Such a person… Damn it!!”

“What did that person say? How is his power?”

Su Li’s tone was calm. Li Qing came to her in the morning. Although Li Qing didn’t say explicitly, she could feel that Ling Qing was just asking her for help.

“He hinted that I should give him 10,000 jades. Jade is different from the gold currency circulating among ordinary people. It is a high-level currency used by warriors for cultivation. I have long used up jades in my practice. So, I can’t afford it!”

Li Qing was very angry, “I inquired about the captain a little bit. His name is Ding Zhang, only a sixth-class warrior. He is like a dog threatening people on the strength of its master’s power!”

“I see. I will go. If the Chief of this camp summons you later, you should be watchful to your words.”

After Su Li finished speaking, she pushed the door and left.

Li Qing stared at Su Li’s back with eyes full of gratitude. She didn’t know how much Su Li’s injury had recovered. Since Su Li still wanted Li Qingto help hide her power, her injury was bound to be unhealed, and she really should not be exposed.

Li Qing was not a fool. Su Li was their backer, and if Su Li was exposed and had an accident, all of them would have a hard time. She had already thought about how to tell the Chief of Ma Camp.

After Su Li left the courtyard, she used her divine awareness to swept across the surroundings. She felt that some people were watching her secretly. Then she twitched her mouth slightly and deliberately walked into a remote dark alley.

Plump— Plump—

The sound of bodies hitting the ground could be heard several times. Su Li walked out of the alley with a calm face as usual and walked towards the top of the mountain.

She walked to the gate built on the top of the mountain and saw a middle-aged warrior with a curly beard come out to stop her. He yelled, “This is the restricted area of Ma Camp. No admittance. Leave here right now!”

Su Li looked at him and said calmly, “I have something important to tell the Chief.”

As soon as the words came out, the middle-aged warrior immediately laughed. He looked at Su Li and said with sarcasm, “Just like you, a weak female warrior. How dare you say that you can get something important? Do you want to say you saw a sow flying in the sky!”

“Hahaha…”

The guards burst into laughter, but Su Li was still expressionless, as if she hadn’t heard these words. She was abnormally calm.

“Who is making the noise?!”

Suddenly, there was a reprimand from the top of the mountain, and all the laughter stopped abruptly.
