“What did you think of?”
Su Li asked quietly, interrupting the elder’s thinking.
The elder in the black coat frowned, and snorted coldly, “They fight for fortune based on Tianjiao List. From what you said, I think it should be the holy land of Buddhism of Human Clan—Wangtian Tablet of the Yuanfo Ancient Temple. I hear that it contains all kinds of laws, including many secret skills of schools.”
Su Li pretended to be surprised when hearing this, “Wangtian Tablet?”
“Yes!”
The elder in the black coat seemed to recall, “But at that time, people of Human Clan who could leave their names on the Wangtian Tablet did not get fortune, but Buddha’s relics that could improve the cultivation.
Something changed… It’s absolutely contrary to the natural law to let the Wangtian Tablet carry the fortune! What happened during the years when I was sleeping?”
The elder in the black coat faintly smelled a hint of conspiracy, but after his eyes fell on the black lotus throne under the statue of Guanyin, a helpless look flashed in his eyes.
“Have you ever thought about leaving here to find out the truth?”
Su Li’s words almost hit the elder’s heart.
“If it had happened in the past, I would have been able to do something for this circle, but now… I am powerless.”
“Why?”
Su Li put the flagon aside, and looked at the statue of Guanyin significantly, “Does this statue suppress you? You can tell me the reason. Maybe I could help you.”
“Why are you clinging to my freedom?”
Astonishment appeared in the eyes of the elder in the black coat. He couldn’t help but vaguely look at Su Li again, but he came to the same conclusion as before.
This girl was an ordinary young female practitioner of Human Clan. She was even too young and was in Yuanying Realm. Her bone age was less than 50 years.
Even in his time, such a little girl was a top-ranking genius, but when it came to help… it was a fantasy.
Su Li did not answer, but stared at the elder in the black coat, with only clarity and sincerity in her eyes.
The elder in the black coat realized something suddenly. Then his expression softened, and the killing intent in his heart disappeared.
“Well, it doesn’t matter if I tell you.”
He smiled, and his face wrinkled like bark. He asked, “Have you ever heard of the Ghost Clan?”
“Yes. I saw it in the sect’s classics.”
Su Li nodded seriously, “It is an extinct clan, but I heard it was extremely powerful.”
Black Lotus in the ring rolled his eyes when he heard it. His cunning master was starting to talk nonsense to cheat people again. No… she was cheating the ghost.
“Black coat. Ghost Clan. Is he…”
Black Lotus pinched his chin and thought for a while, but he did not remind Su Li.
“I am from the Ghost Clan.”
The elder in the black coat straightforwardly said, “I made a big mistake back then and was punished by making a forbidden oath to watch over the holy lotus forever until there is a clansman who can truly inherit the holy lotus.”
At this point, although the elder in the black coat remained calm, his tone was unconsciously bitter, “However, even the patriarch would have never realized that as time went by, who could break the oath when the Ghost Clan no longer existed?”
“Holy lotus?”
Su Li looked at the statue of Guanyin, and asked with interest, “Is it the Black Lotus Throne? May I try it?”
“Ha-ha…”
The elder in the black coat laughed, “This is a holy object of our Ghost Clan. Even if I agree to let you try it, I’m afraid you cannot bear it. I woke up and fell asleep over and over again, but I still didn’t meet that clansman, so now I do not insist on it.”
Su Li curled her lips, and defiantly said, “Senior, don’t look down on me for my age. I am also a talent of Human Clan. Maybe the person you are waiting for is me!”
“Hahaha…”
The elder in the black coat laughed loudly, “Little girl, you’re really young. Do you really think you can do whatever you want because you have genius?”
Seeing that Su Li was still not convinced, the elder in the black coat shook his head and slowly moved over, “Well, we are destined to meet. I’ll let you try it and understand the truth that there is always someone who is better than you.”
“Huh! Senior, I will prove it to you!”
Su Li immediately stood up, and jumped to the front of the statue of Guanyin. She asked confidently, “Senior, what should I do?”
Her behavior in the eyes of the elder in the black coat was insolent. So, the elder replied in a chaffing way, “Put your hands on the Lotus Throne, and feel it calmly.”
It was finally here.
Su Li looked slightly grim, and then stretched out her palms to gently cover the Black Lotus Throne.
After a while…
The statue of Guanyin did not respond.
Although the elder in the black coat did not expect success, seeing this scene, he still couldn’t help sighing. Then he said warmly in a comforting tone, “This is the twelfth-grade holy lotus, which is intelligential. Even the gifted patriarch of Ghost Clan can’t subdue it. You do not even belong to the Ghost Clan, so how could it be…uh?!”
Before the elder in the black coat finished his words, he suddenly widened his eyes, and he was completely shocked by the scene in front of him.
The Black Lotus Throne faintly shook and seemed to find its end result. It suddenly came back to life, and quickly became smaller into Su Li’s pubic region. The distinctly noble pneuma revealed the urgency and anxiety… It was very humble, fearing that Su Li didn’t want it.
Boom—
The statue of Guanyin without the Black Lotus Throne could not support itself, and collapsed suddenly, blasting the rotten floor into a huge pit. But the elder in the black coat didn’t seem to hear of it. He stared blankly at Su Li, who sat cross-legged with trembling lips and horrified expression.
“The holy lotus chose…Human Clan??!”
Su Li’s divine awareness sank into her public region, and she immediately “saw” the pocket twelfth-grade Black Lotus Throne spinning around and being eager to blend into her eighteenth-grade Black Lotus Throne, but it couldn’t make it.
Su Li calmly looked at the twelfth-grade Black Lotus Throne. When she touched it, she also sensed that there was a forbidden oath of Ghost Clan in her awareness sea. At this time, the elder in the black coat not only could not hurt her, but also became her servant.
“Although there is a bit restrictive, it is definitely a useful card in this ghost town.”
Thinking of this, Su Li turned her eyes from the forbidden oath to the public region with a cold gaze.
“Black Lotus, do you still want to pretend to be dead?”
“Uh… I’m afraid of being discovered by the old guy, influencing your plan.”
The voice of the Black Lotus came into Su Li’s mind, “Congratulations, Master! You have obtained the Ghost Clan’s treasure—sword-transforming method of twelfth-grade Black Lotus!”
“Sword-transforming method.”
Su Li thought, looking at the pocket Lotus Throne flying within her public region, “It turns out to be the sword-transforming method.”
She had a good memory that as early as when she broke through the Zhuji Realm, Black Lotus told her that the sword-transforming methodcould transform into eighteen Black Lotus Swords, and she would have infinite power if she could control it.
“What I said before was not fully right.”
Black Lotus said in a bit cautious tone, “Throughout history in this circle, the eighteenth-grade sword-transforming method never appeared. Even this twelfth-grade sword-transforming methodis also a legendary thing. I thought it has disappeared in years, but I did not expect you to be so lucky to meet it.”
Su Li looked as usual, without surprise of obtaining a treasure, and she could only look at the shadow of Black Lotus, “Tell me what else you have not told me.”
Black Lotus suddenly sweated on his forehead and rubbed his hands in embarrassment. Then he honestly said, “This old man in black coat is similar to the dragon shadow in the ancestral land in the Ghost Region, and he is also an old monster during the years of All Spirits Calendar. But I have some impression of him that his reputation in the history books of the Ghost Clan…is quite big. If I remember correctly, he should be the only prodigy in the branch of Prehistoric Ghost Clan at that time, named Ye Che. His clan group is small but famous for making Yeji that is a delicacy of Ghost Clan during the All Spirits Calendar.”
Yeji? Delicacy?
Su Li remembered the ugly blue monster she had seen back then, and couldn’t help but feel weird in her heart.
Were their Prehistoric Ghost Clan’s tastes so weird?
“Ahem, don’t be sidetracked. At that time, Yeji was as cute as the family pigs. Later, I don’t know what happened, but Yeji changed. Anyway, I have never eaten it. It is terrible!”
Black Lotus had never eaten it, but how did he know it was unpalatable?
Su Li raised her eyebrows, but did not debunk. At this moment, she finally confirmed the long-held speculation in her heart.
Black Lotus, as expected, was a not very clever spirit, and Su Li didn’t know how it lived till now.
“How do I integrate the sword-transforming method?”
Putting her thought aside, Su Li asked.
“Release your mind and make it integrate into your lotus throne. But if you want to get these twelve swords, you can’t do it overnight, and you need massive ghost energy to support.”
When it came to business, Black Lotus was reliable.
After hearing these details, Su Li released her control on the public region. The pocket lotus throne really integrated into her original lotus throne quickly like a swallow homing, without any hindrance, as if the two were originally one.
When the sword-transforming method was completely integrated into her lotus throne, Su Li immediately felt that there were twelve subtle pneumas with a sense of cold and sharpness, while the other six pneumas were still in a silent state.
“If I find another sixth-grade sword-transforming method, can I integrate it?”
This thought flashed from her mind, and then was put away by Su Li.
Ghost Clan had long been extinct, and there was little related news about it in Qingshui Circle. It was impossible to find the sword-transforming methodfor a while, so she could only keep an eye on it later.
Integrating the sword-transforming methodseemed fast, but it actually took Su Li one and a half days.
“It is time to go back to the inn of Tianyake Attic for rendezvous.”
Su Li opened her eyes, and a faint black light flashed through her eyes.
When the elder in the black coat meditating on the side sensed the movement, he immediately got up and saluted, “Ye Che is here to salute, Master!”
Su Li frankly accepted his salute, and then said, “Senior Ye, I accept your salute. You won’t have to salute me in the future. And you don’t need to worry about what I will ask you to do with the forbidden oath.”
When hearing this, Ye Che breathed a sigh of relief, but he looked sad and lonely.
Back then, he was a gifted prodigy. He never thought that he would become a servant of a little girl of Human Clan.
Su Li’s mind was so keen, and she noticed Ye Che’s mentality. Then she chuckled,
“Senior Ye, why do you bother about it? Your peers back then have long disappeared, so you’d better take it easy.
Relatively speaking, you do get freedom, but I still need to remind you… I don’t know how many years from now in All Spirits Calendar, but the time span is at least forty thousand years. You have lived too long. If you are in the area of Shengxian Mountain, it will be okay. But if you leave here, the natural law will inevitably make the nature’s punishment.”
Su Li said in an extremely rigorous tone, as if she was different from before.
Ye Che’s expression slightly changed when he heard it, and he finally realized…
