Chapter 175 Mr. Li was a Man?
Su Qingtan followed Ling Qinglan into the study and he was stunned.
Why did the study be the same as before?
Qiyu Xuangong was undoubtedly a real evil martial art. Su Qingtan practiced it and his inner demons came out frequently. Ling Qinglan suppressed Su Qingtan’s inner demons with the extremely coldness. The whole study was like a cold place in the north and there was a layer of frost in the surface of the study.
During the ten days, Su Qingtan had frostbite all over his body, but he passed through the first phase of the Qiyu Xuan Gong. He sobered up from the unconscious situation and would never be wholly controlled by seven affections and six desires.
Even Ling Qinglan was surprised by Su Qingtan’s change. He thought that Su Qingtan would need at least one month to sober himself up on the basis of his will. He didn’t expect that it only took Su Qingtan ten days.
“Now, your inner demons in your body are stabilized, so, I don’t need to stay with you every minute.”
Then Ling Qinglan walked towards the wall and opened the stone door. There was a nip in the air and the wall around the stone door was frozen instantly, but it stopped at a strange black line and couldn’t spread.
“I prepared another place for you during the period you left. This is the adytum I practice ordinarily. You will stay here until you fully control Qiyu Xuangong.”
Su Qingtan couldn’t help shivering. He didn’t care how coldly the environment was when he was unconscious, but now he sobered up.
“Go inside. Only if you go through this stage, you have the opportunity to master the stronger force.” Then Ling Qinglan continued saying calmly, “It all depends on you whether you will be successful or not.”
Su Qingtan took a deep breath and stepped inside.
Seeing that, Ling Qinglan smiled and pressed the gear. Then the stone door closed slowly. He reminded again, “Don’t stop practicing Xuangong. Otherwise if the ice toxin invades into your body, I can’t save you.”
“Okay.”
Boom!
The stone door was completely closed and the whole adytum was in darkness except the dim light overhead. Su Qingtan sat on the cold stone. His eyebrows and hair were frozen with a layer of frost at a speed that could be seen. His inner demons floated in his mind were also suppressed to be quiet.
Su Qingtan showed a determined expression. He closed eyes slowly to calm himself down.
When he mastered the Qiyu Xuangong, nobody could bully his Second Sister!
…
Ling Qinglan was a little relieved after closing the stone door. He had confidence with Su Qigntan. But he didn’t have confidence before giving the Qiyu Xuangong to him. Fortunately, Su Qingtan had a strong character.
Or it was because Su Qingtan had a strong will, which helped him pass through the first stage of the Qiyu Xuangong.
After re-examining the black line on the edge of the stone door and confirming that it wasn’t damaged, Ling Qinglan waved his hands. Then a bookcase flied to block the stone door. He was relieved now.
The plan was finally on the right track.
“I never expected that the feeling of arranging things for myself is really good.”
Ling Qinglan sneered and turned around. Suddenly, he was stunned.
He saw that a young man in cyan held a folding fan beside the near door and looked at him in a contemptuous sneer. Ling Qinglan didn’t even notice when the young person came.
“Did the young man see Su Qingtan just now?”
The doubt flashed in Ling Qinglan’s mind. He showed a vicious expression and thought, “Su Qingtan’s whereabouts can’t be exposed yet.”
The young man in cyan didn’t seem to see Ling Qinglan’s vicious expression. He walked towards the counter and sat down slowly as if this was his home. He sat cross-legged and said leisurely, “Don’t worry! Ling Qinglan, I don’t want to fight with you. In addition, you will be defeated by me, so, we don’t need to fight.”
The young man’s voice was quite strange. Ling Qinglan couldn’t tell whether it belonged to a man or a woman. The young man’s impassive face was extremely unmatched with the voice.
Hearing the voice, Ling Qinglan was stunned first and then recalled the owner of the voice. He blurted out, “Mr. Li?!”
Su Li laughed. She made a fist and palm salute and said, “Lord Ling, we haven’t seen each other for a few days. Are you okay?”
The young man was Su Li who tailed Su Qingtan here. She disguised herself as the appearance when she went to see Qu Lu. If Su Li wanted the Linli Building to be known and popular in Yunjing, the identity of Mr. Li would be known by others sooner or later. In that case, it was better to tell them initiatively.
Ling Qinglan’s killing intention vanished, but he was still vigilant. He stood up and asked, “Mr. Li, you came here late at night. I am afraid that you came for something important.”
Actually, Ling Qinglan was also frightened.
Was Mr. Li a young man?
Was he a Young Master like Ling Li?!
Ling Qinglan thought of the time in the Qinghe Province. When he first knew “Ms. Li” who didn’t show him her face, Ms. Li called herself a “little girl”. But it turned out that Ms. Li was a young man. The thought of the scene made Ling Qinglan’s flesh creep.
Mr. Li’s hobby was quite strange.
Su Li waved her hands and smiled, saying, “Lord Ling, you thought too much. I just came to Yunjing recently. I saw that an acquaintance walked at night furtively. I was very curious, so, I followed him. I never expected that I can meet Lord Ling here. What a coincidence!”
Hearing that, Ling Qinglan didn’t relax his vigilance and he replied, “Mr. Li, don’t beat about the bush. Please get to the point. What do you want?”
Su Li patted her folding fan and said, “Lord Ling is really straightforward. I want to know what kind of martial art Qiyu Xuanggong is? Can you lend it to me to have a look?”
He was with him from the very beginning!
Ling Qinglan was a little unhappy and replied coldly, “Is it a little impolite for you to borrow the valuable Xuangong Classic?”
“Oh!” It seemed that Su Li had realized something. She continued, “As you said, I am really a little curt… Well, I will say in another way. Can you let me have a look at the book of Qiyu Xuangong that you hid from the Hierarch of the Yinmo and gave it to Su Qingtan secretly to practice?”
The tone of Su Li was extremely cold at last.
Su Li was threatening Ling Qinglan!
Ling Qingtan was a little shocked and he looked more terrible. He didn’t want to give Qiyu Xuangong to Mr. Li. But if Mr. Li told Ling Li that he let Su Qingtan practice it secretly, his plan would be destroyed!
Qiyu Xuangong was the most important treasure of the Yinmo Cult. How could he give it to Mr. Li, a person who was not a member of the cult?
Mr. Li was the same as before. He seemed to know everything and was quite mysterious and strange.
“What do you think of that? Lord Ling, I don’t have enough time. If you feel embarrassed, I will go to the Ling House again…”
Ling Qinglan was really helpless. He took the ancient book from his arms and threw it to Mr. Li.
Su Li was quite happy and reached out to catch the book. But when she nearly caught the book, she saw Ling Qinglan’s keen and sparking eyes. She drew her hands back and the book fell to the ground.
Mr. Li didn’t catch the book?
Ling Qinglan was stunned. He underestimated Su Li.
“Mr. Li, don’t you have the courage?” Ling Qinglan asked ironically.
Su Li smiled and picked up the book across her sleeves, replying, “One is never too careful. I don’t reach the realm of knowing no fear of death yet. In addition, Lord Ling knew well about the medicine because of your illness, so, you may also have an amazing attainment in poison circle.”
During the talking, Su Li had glanced at the general principle of the book. It was really Qiyu Xuangong. She came suddenly, so, Ling Qinglan didn’t have time to prepare a fake one.
Xuangong, a top-grade one!
But it was also an evil martial art!
This martial art was based on seven affections and six desires. That was to say, if one could overcome the seven affections and six desires, one could get the inborn realm. If the negative effects of it were ignored, it was really a most powerful martial art that could help one to reach to the inborn hurdle quickly!
“Seven emotions and six desires, seven emotions and six desires… It is no wonder that my Eldest Brother becomes that …”
Su Li thought, “The general principle specifies that if one practices Xuangong and can’t control his/her desires, he/she will be dominated by desires and be crazy!”
But her Eldest Brother had been practicing this martial art for a few days and he was still in a good state. From what she saw just now, Su Li guessed that Ling Qinglan suppressed Su Qingtan’s inner demons with the ice toxin.
But the ice toxin in Ling Qinglan’s body had accumulated for many years and it was uncontrollable. If he used it arbitrarily, it would invade into his body deeply.
Thinking of this, Su Li looked up weirdly and saw that Ling Qinglan face was ruddy as usual. Did Ling Qinglan find the way to control the ice toxin in his body?
Ling Qinglan was a little embarrassed by Su Li’s staring. He was also quite concerned. Mr. Li’s attainments in the medical circle were quite popular in Qinghe Province. The general principle of Qiyu Xuangong was read by Mr. Li, so, he would definitely speculate many things.
“If Mr. Li knew that I suppress the ice toxin with the help of external force, things will be pretty bad.” Ling Qinglan thought.
Actually… he wasn’t able to fight with Su Li. His vitality would be consumed greatly every time he fought with others. If he fought with others frequently, he didn’t know whether he could live till the end of the year to help Ling Li get the Full Moon and Heart Strings or not.
Bang!
Su Li put the ancient book on the table and walked towards the entrance. She made a fist and palm salute, saying with a smile, “Thanks a lot, Lord Ling. You satisfied my curiosity. It is so late, so, I will go now. We will see someday.”
Then Su Li disappeared outside the door before Ling Qinglan reacted. She came here because she was concerned about her Eldest Brother. But she could see that Su Qingtan was willing to practice this martial art rather than being forced by Ling Qinglan. In that case, Su Li couldn’t persuade her Eldest Brother to give up.
Her Eldest Brother wouldn’t be in danger with the help of Ling Qinglan. Su Li was a little relieved. She returned to the Su House. When she thought of that she went out suddenly and didn’t make up an appropriate reason to convince Su Huanli, she was a little upset.
Seeing that Mr. Li in cyan disappeared outside the door, Ling Qinglan was quite astounded.
“He left after reading the ancient book. Did he really come to satisfy his curiosity?” Ling Qinglan thought.
…
It was already dark when Su Li arrived at the Su House. Mammy Li was waiting for her in the front of the yard as usual as if she was waiting her daughter to go home.
Seeing Su Li, Mammy Li was quite delighted. She went forward and asked, “Miss, haven’t you had dinner yet? I prepared dinner for you.”
“Hmm.” Su Li replied and gave her cyan robe to Mammy Li. “Where are my father and others?” Su Li asked.
Mammy Li was a little embarrassed and replied after thinking for a moment, “Master and others didn’t send people to call you to have the reunion dinner.”
Su Li was a little stunned, but she switched off momentarily.
Her position in the Su Family was equal to that of the maids. This cognition was deeply rooted in the thoughts of the members of the Su Family. They treated Su Li a little well before because of Su Qingtan.
However, Su Qingtan’s attitude in the daytime sent Su Huanli a message that Su Li…fell from grace!
A maid who fell from grace didn’t have any qualifications to have reunion dinner.
Su Li shook her head and smiled helplessly.
Su Li, did you still have an illusion about the Su Family? Hadn’t you seen what kind of people they were?
Mammy Li couldn’t help worrying about Su Li when she saw Su Li’s expression. “Miss isn’t a vulnerable person. Why does she care about the reunion dinner so much?” Mammy Li thought.
