Chapter 486 Accommodating Xuan An

After a meal, Su Li got the information she wanted from Xuan An.

The treasure map in Jin Zhentian’s hands was cracked by someone in advance a few years ago. The place reserving treasures had become relics that everyone could go and explore.

“For the first two years when the relics was opened, it was really a bloody storm!”

Xuan An raved, “There are many tombs that have not been explored. Although there are many dangers, the treasures and exotic materials, which are not common in the outside world, can be seen everywhere! All the practitioners who think they have done something all went crazy. They killed each other for treasures, which happened there every day! For this reason, at least 20% of practitioners in the Jindan Realm of the Jiuli Region were dead, while fewer deaths in the Yuanying Realm. Many practitioners of Yuanying Realm escaped successfully, if they are not targeted.”

Su Li heard this with interest and asked with a smile, “Your words are so vivid, and have you ever seen it with your own eyes?”

Xuan An immediately scratched his head in embarrassment, “I do not have the ability. I just hear it from my father. At that time, my father put me in confinement for three years in case I would run around…”

When he said this, an extremely deep fear flashed in his eyes, as if he had a lingering fear about the confinement of those years.

“Your father is also for your own good.”

Su Li fiddled with the wine glass in her hand, “Although the practitioners detach themselves from the realm of mortals, they only have one life. If they died, there would be nothing.”

Xuan An looked at Su Li blankly and was wondering. Wasn’t she inexperienced in the world? How could she say such profound words?

Su Li quickly realized she leaked out a flaw, so she stuck out her tongue playfully, “This is what my master said, and now I just offer a present to you with it. Please don’t mind.”

“No, I don’t. I think it makes sense.” Xuan An waved his hands to answer. The doubts in his heart dissipated. “I didn’t understand my father’s behavior before, but now I understand it upon hearing your words.”

“It’s good for me to do you a favor!”

Su Li replied with joy. When Xuan An saw her sincere expression, he was moved by her and completely tore down his wall to her.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment. Su Li broke it with a bashful smile, “Senior Fellow Apprentice, I want to visit the relics. Can you lead the way?”

“Well…”

Xuan An hesitated. But seeing the sense of loss between Su Li’s eyebrows, he said with grinning, “Of course! This year has been the fifth year since the relics was opened. It has long been less dangerous. I have been there once with my dad. However, if you want me to take you there, you must be obedient and not run around! Otherwise, I have no ability to save you when you are in danger!”

Xuan An warned seriously. And Su Li nodded repeatedly. Then the itinerary to the relics was finally settled.

They both booked their rooms at the inn and arranged to leave tomorrow.

After dinner, Su Li couldn’t help laughing secretly when she saw that Xuan An was more excited than her, after all she had to pretend to be excited.

He was too young.

She could tell at a glance that Xuan An was just more than five hundred years old. But his cultivation could reach the peak of Jindan Realm. Even if it could not compare with a great genius, he was definitely a talent.

Shaking her head, Su Li pushed the door and went into the room. The moment the door closed, the matrix and runes flowed in the cracks of the door, locking the entire room impenetrable in the blink of an eye.

The advantage of the practitioners’ inn was that every room had an isolation tactical matrix. Although the grade was not high, as long as it was not deliberately damaged, guests would not be disturbed by others.

After inspecting the room and confirming no hidden mechanism left by the innkeeper, Su Li walked to the inner room and sat cross-legged on the silk futon. With a gesture, the shadow squirmed behind her. After a while, there was another “Su Li” in the room.

Su Li looked at the face of her previous life and frowned, but she did not deliberately correct it.

Every time the evil ghost was called, it always appeared in the face of her previous life. Even if she corrected it, it would return to the original state next time. Thus, she simply didn’t bother correcting it.

With a slight sigh, Su Li threw a set of clothes and asked the evil ghost to put it on. Then the evil ghost walked to the futon by the side and sat cross-legged, entering a state of enlightenment.

“Little Su Li, it…”

Black Lotus sprang out of the ring with an astonished look. The little white fox that had been confined too long was also released to take a fresh breath. “Could the evil ghost practice by itself?”

After Black Lotus asked, Su Li raised her brow and answered, “Couldn’t it?”

“How is it possible! The evil ghost has no mind!”

As soon as he said, the evil ghost, who was still looking for feeling, suddenly opened its eyes and looked at Black Lotus coldly.

Black Lotus shivered at once, making his hair stand on end. He weakly defended, “Well… I am ignorant. Don’t be mind.”

“Hahaha…”

Hearing his words, Su Li chuckled. Black Lotus looked back at her blankly, and then turned to look at the evil ghost who ignored him. He suddenly got it and burst into anger.

“Su Li, are you kidding me?!”

Su Li smiled slightly and asked meaningfully, “What did you call me?”

Upon hearing this, Black Lotus was scared with his scalp tingling.

“Forget it! I shouldn’t care about a lunatic.” He thought.

“Um… Master, what the hell is going on? I have never seen such an evil ghost!”

Staring at Black Lotus’s sincere face, Su Li also answered seriously, “Even you don’t know it. How could I know? I only need to separate a hint of my thought and fuse it with the evil ghost. Then the evil ghost will have minds. It can practice and perceive mental method and secret method on its own! And the moment when I withdraw my slightest thought from it, what the evil ghost perceived would all be taken by me, as if I practiced to get them.”

“That’s too good to be true?!”

Black Lotus was stunned, “It means that there are two of you practicing at the same time, right? Based on your talent, it will be wonderful if your practice speed can be enhanced!”

“That’s different.”

Su Li said with a pity, “I have tried. I will lose half of what the evil ghost perceived and practiced when I take it, which is much slower than my own practice speed.”

“Be content!”

Black Lotus rolled his eyes, “You have gained a lot. If those people who had the body of evil ghost in the past had had the talent, they would have gone crazy!”

“Talent?”

Su Li was surprised, and murmured thoughtfully, “This talent is not awakened by me, or… it may be part of my talent.”

“Isn’t all your talent?!”

Black Lotus’s eyes widened, as if they nearly stared out of his head. (The premise was that it had eyeballs.)

Su Li just replied yes, but not continued. Black Lotus was itching in his heart, but he didn’t dare to force Su Li to say. He could only pout while he grabbed the little white fox and stuffed it into the ring. Then he was in a sulk alone.

“Whimper…”

The little white fox curled in the ring and looked at the Black Lotus sadly.

She wanted to be with her master. Uncle Black was a badass!

The night was passing slowly when Su Li and the evil ghost perceived the Suiyu Tactics at the same time.

No words for a night.

The next morning, when Xuan An got up and opened the door, he saw Su Li sitting at the table downstairs and enjoying the spiritual tea.

He belted down the stairs immediately, sat down at Su Li’s table, and said with shame, “Junior Sister Apprentice, you should be earlier than me. It really makes me ashamed.”

Su Li smiled and pushed another cup of tea in front of Xuan An, “It is a little embarrassing. We will go to the relics today. I am so excited that I don’t fall asleep all night.”

“Ha-ha!”

Xuan An couldn’t help laughing, “Junior Sister Apprentice, you are really funny, while I was almost like you when I went down the mountain…”

Black Lotus yawned in the ring, and rolled his eyes when he heard the conversation between them.

“It seems to be true. A two-thousand-year-old person even act young and do not feel ashamed.”

“You dare to speak ill behind your master. I have heard them all.”

The sound of Reincarnation Mirror sounded leisurely. Black Lotus instantly jumped up and glared at the mirror spirit of Reincarnation Mirror who suddenly appeared in the ring space, “You, a damn donkey, dare to appear in front of me?!”

When the phantom of the little beast heard Black Lotus’s words, its face suddenly became dark, “It was a long time ago. Why do you always mention it?”

“Tsk!”

Black Lotus sneered, “You still dare to show up. Aren’t you afraid that Su Li bears grudges and will tear you to pieces?!”

The little beast shivered. Its phantom shook but quickly stabilized. It said in a muffled voice, “The master has noticed me a long time ago, but she doesn’t do it. I am completely refined by her blood. If she died, I would also be destroyed again. In this way, she does not worry about my rebellion at all. As long as I serve the master with all my heart and shield the nature’s mystery, what should I be afraid of?”

The little beast still lacked confidence when speaking. But its attitude still made Black Lotus gnash his teeth with hatred.

“Besides, after I swallowed the fragments, my strength recovered a bit. You and I are a whole. It is easy for me to come in here. I just heard you say bad things about the master. I can’t ignore it!”

Heating this, Black Lotus irritated and cursed, “Come on! Hurt each other! If Su Li was angry and mad, none of us could live!”

Little beast blankly watched Black Lotus being on the brink of collapse and felt aggrieved.

What did he say?

He just said what was in its heart. Why did the Black lotus seem to be stimulated?

The little beast did not know that before waking up, Su Li forced Black Lotus to show up with her life…

These were the movements in the ring.

Under the leading of Xuan An, Su Li went out of the city and headed to the north slowly. Xuan An told Su Li the current situation of Qingshui Circle on the way, after all he, as a senior fellow apprentice, had the responsibility to explain the situation of the cultivation circle to her.

Su Li originally wanted to motivate him to say something. Unexpectedly, he could see it. So, she reduced their speed again and again. Compared with the current situation of the various factions in Qingshui Circle, Mushui spiritual jade became less important.

Jiuzhou Region was an isolated place. Even if people could buy a lot of information from Tianyake Attic, those were only apparent and insignificant. Everything about her was regarded as confidential information by various sects. So, it was very difficult to get it from Tianyake Attic.

The most convenient way was to find an insider to ask. However, because of her sensitive identity, it was so difficult to find a suitable person. Fortunately, on the way to look for Mushui spiritual jade, she encountered one.
