Chapter 453 Agreement

Zi Sha’s delicate face showed surprise, because she obviously did not expect Su Li to agree so quickly.

In her experience, all those humans who were trapped here by her promised or refused her after a struggle.

Even if there were some different people, they could just keep calm outwardly but struggle in their hearts.

With her talent, she could easily sense their emotional changes.

But she could only sense calmness from Su Li.

The real calmness.

It seemed that her request was just a matter like eating or drinking, and Su Li didn’t worry about her life.

“What do you want to know?”

A flash flickered in Zi Sha’s crystal-clear eyes, and she said with a smile, “It is my first time to meet someone as interesting as you. For this reason, I will answer the question whatever you ask.”

Su Li curled her lips slightly, “I had the question for quite a while. Why did you ask me to distract the attention of the natural law?”

Zi Sha’s smile froze for a moment, and a trace of annoyance twinkled in her eyes. But her smile came back in the next instant. She said softly, “Little girl, I thought you would be smarter and would not ask such sensitive questions. You should know that I… will not let you go if you get the answer, even if you can survive form nature’s punishment.”

“That’s the only thing I wonder.”

Su Li stared firmly at Zi Sha, ignoring the snakes with human faces which showed their teeth and claws around. She said, “I don’t want to die as a clueless scapegoat.”

“Scapegoat?”

Splash—

Zi Sha swung her tail and swam quickly from the icy pond to the shore, leaving a trail of water all the way. Su Li had no space to retreat. She could only wait until that perfect but frightening face appeared one inch away from her face.

Su Li could even see the limitless killing intent in her purple eyes, which like the hell.

“I can’t read any fear in your eyes.”

Zi Sha moved her eyes from Su Li and straightened up her body. She was two heads taller than Su Li, and now, she overlooked Su Li, “Since you mentioned the scapegoat, you must have guessed a lot of information.”

She waved her hand. Those snakes with human faces moved a stone chair from nowhere and put it in front of Su Li. Zi Sha sat down, and her sight was just at Su Li’s eye level.

“You Human Clan often says that the natural law is always fair. In my opinion, the natural law is nothing but a bastard who likes to meddle in other’s business!”

Zi Sha deliberately spoke slowly so that she could observe Su Li’s reaction. To her surprise, Su Li nodded and said, “I totally agree with what you said, Senior from Demon Clan.”

Zi Sha was really stunned this time.

But she quickly responded and hummed slightly, “You are different from those stubborn scholars. People from Human Clan rarely agree with the concept of we Demon Clan.”

Su Li nodded and continued, “In that case, you, a mighty demon, are not tolerated by the natural law like me, are you? That’s why you have blended the demon crystals into the walls of the mine cave so that the natural law can’t find you.

You must have a wish for many years. If you want to fulfill this wish, you will certainly get the attention of the natural law. So, you need someone to distract natural law so that you will have time to do that.”

Su Li finished that in a calm tone. Instantly, the entire cave fell into silence. Even the snakes with human faces stopped howling and looked at Su Li blankly. Although they had no expression, they still showed their fear.

“You… are great!”

Zi Sha took a breath. Looking at the weak human in front of her, she even didn’t know what to say.

“In the past ten thousand years, there are really someone who can outguess my mind, but they didn’t dare to speak! You… have guts!”

Su Li smiled gently, neither showing disrespect nor humbling herself, “Since you need my help, you will not hurt me. What’s the matter if I said a few words more?”

Zi Sha stared at Su Li coldly, while freezing air gradually spread to her feet. Those snakes with human faces had thought that their master would strike out at Su Li, but she joyfully burst out laughing.

The laughter, like tinkling bells, echoed in the cave.

“You’re special, and I almost begin to like you. If you weren’t outlier, I would allow you to live a few more years.”

As Zi Sha was talking, she threw a spherical purple crystal stone at Su Li.

“Fuse this into your tactical matrix. Its effect would be several times stronger. In addition to this, I will reward you the practicing resources for Human Clan that I collected over the years. I can give you the reward in advance lest you lose the chance to use them.”

Su Li took over the purple crystal stone and fused it with the matrix plate of the Tactical Matrix for Camouflage without saying a word.

About an hour later, the crystal stone was completely integrated into the matrix plate. The matrix plate had many more cracks and would be destroyed after dozens of usages.

“I have to find other ways to isolate the sensation of the natural law. Otherwise, it will become incredibly difficult for me to take action when this matrix plate breaks one day.”

The thought flashed in Su Li’s mind. Then, she put away the matrix plate and saw that Zi Sha’s beautiful eyes were full of appreciation. She asked, “What am I supposed to do?”

…

The moon went down and the sun rose. It was another morning.

As the day dawned, Su Li walked out of the mine cave as if there was no one else. Zi Sha’s charming voice was echoing in her ears, “Don’t ever think of escaping. As long as you dare to leave Jiuzhou Region, I will definitely kill you before you leave! Don’t underestimate the strength of a mighty demon… You still have one year to get yourself ready. Think carefully about how to escape from the punishment of the nature law.”

One year… was much too long.

Su Li sighed slowly and left.

Back to the camp of the Seventh Branch, Su Mian followed Su Li with a dumbfounded expression. He petted his head now and then, like an idiot.

“What happened last night? What the hell was inside that tunnel?”

Su Mian tried to recall but in vain. He felt a sense of affection as he saw the camp of the Seventh Branch, but he regretted at the same time.

It was rare to adventure with the senior, but he could not make it to the end. Thanks to the senior, she was so kind to bring him out.

After asking Su Mian to rest, Su Li came to the main tent. Su Yuanhai, who had been waiting, immediately greeted her.

“Master, you are back!”

As he finished that, his face suddenly changed. He asked, “Master, There’s… an unpleasant smell on you. Did you take the demon crystal?”

Su Li was slightly stunned, for she did not realize that. It must come from the purple crystal.

As she thought of this, she used All Spirits Tactics to cleanse herself, and the demonic smell disappeared from Su Yuanhai’s sensation at once.

“Master, that pneuma is gone.”

Su Yuanhai said in a respectful voice and then sked, “What’s our next plan?”

“The demon crystals are valuable, but we have to be alive to get them.”

Su Li smiled, but the sense of coldness flashed in her eyes. She said, “I’ve been worrying about that there are too many branches of the Su Family, and it’s troublesome to subdue them all. It’s not bad to wipe out several of them. You just need…”

Su Li talked slowly about her plan, which gave Su Yuanhai quite a shock.

If this happened, the Su Family… would get a huge problem!2

However, Su Yuanhai didn’t feel any sadness but full of joy. Since his soul was controlled, only the interest of his master could affect his emotions. Others… even the family or his children could not!

Moreover, Su Yuanhai did not have a cultivation companion.

So, he was destined to be Su Li’s servant in this life!

Su Li left soon, while Su Yuanhai stayed and was busy carrying out Su Li’s plan.

On the surface, the Sixth Branch and the Seventh Branch were still fighting for the mineral resources as usual.

Early the next morning, Su Jinnan was listing the demon crystals in the camp’s treasury. He imagined what degree he could practice with the resources he exchanged with these demon crystals.

Suddenly, a scout of the Sixth Branch ran in panicked and shouted, “Head of the Family, bad news! There is nobody left in the camp of the Seventh Branch as if they all disappeared overnight! And the demon crystals they exploited are still in their warehouse.”

“What?”

Su Jinnan looked back with eyes red, “Take some people to have a check! No… I’ll personally go!”

Although the Sixth Branch had occupied eighty percent of the demon crystal mine, the part that the Seventh Branch held should not be underestimated. He didn’t care how the Seventh Branch disappeared suddenly, but those demon crystals should not fall into the hands of others.

Su Jinnan led a large group of his men to the camp of the Seventh Branch before he had thought it thoroughly.

Shortly after Su Jinnan left, the practitioner at the late stage of Yuanying Realm he invited received the news. This man, known as Mo Liang, was a casual practitioner. He had a good reputation in the cultivation circle. He enjoyed his freedom rather than be bound by a sect. He made a living by helping people as a muscleman.

Mo Liang was calm and had not been blinded by the profits. He immediately perceived that something was wrong after hearing the description of the Sixth Branch’s disciples. However, Su Jinnan had left the camp. If Mo Liang also left and something happened in the camp at this time, he would be responsible for that.

After consideration, Mo Liang finally sighed and sat down in place. He muttered to himself with worry, “I hope nothing bad will happen. Su Jinnan hasn’t paid my bill yet.”

But sometimes, what you were afraid of just became true.

Shortly after Mo Liang sat down, another disciple responsible for overseeing the digging work rushed in hurriedly, “Senior, a disaster just happened! All those spiritual stones have been turned into stones!”

Stones?

Mo Liang’s look changed wildly. Without saying a word, he rushed to the minefield. All the disciples of the Sixth Branch were absentmindedly gathering in front of the warehouse. The air seemed to be filled with death-like silence.

His expression became cold, “Get out of the way!”

All the disciples immediately woke up and made a way for him.

Mo Liang rushed to the warehouse. He was shocked when he saw the stones piled up there. He just felt that a chill was rising from his feet.

“How could it be possible? My divine awareness has been shrouding the warehouse. Who had the ability to change all the demon crystals into stones without being detected?”

Just then, a disciple in charge of guarding the warehouse stood out and reported with fear, “Senior, these are the demon crystals. I saw with my own eyes that the demonic energy on the demon crystals faded, and they turned into stones in the blink of an eye. It looked as if… all the demonic energy… was drained away by something!”

Hearing these words, Zi Sha, who was hiding in the depths of the cold pond, licked her lips.

Since she had achieved her purpose, it was reasonable to retrieve the bait she released. Did those niddering humans want to use her demon crystals to practice?

Never thought about it!
