Chapter 172: Meeting Old Acquaintances
in mid-air, whispering amongst themselves, he suddenly spoke.The sound wasn't loud, but it reached every person present, crystal clear."Aspire to inherit, climb to the top.""And the top level can onl...Sister, I have something urgent to discuss with Master. Where is she now Liu Liansha asked urgently.
"Something urgent Feel free to tell us anything." said another senior sister.
"No, we have to find Master about this! Sister, just tell me where Master is." Liu Liansha stomped her feet in frustration.
"What do you want from me"
At that moment, a cold voice rang out.
A woman in a white robe, with a thin veil over her shoulders, stepped out from behind the curtain.
She possessed hair of an extraordinary sky blue, her figure tall and slender. Her features were flawless, sculpted with exquisite precision as if from a painting. Just standing there, she seemed to become a breathtaking vista.
But on her, there emanated a frigid aura that kept people at bay.
When all the disciples of the Shuang Han Palace saw her, they bowed their heads and shouted in unison, "Master!"
She is the current palace master of Shuangan Palace, Su Lengyun.
At the same time that Liu Liansha saw Su Lengyun, Fang Yu also saw Su Lengyun.
She's really the little girl from back then.
Su Lengyun's delicate eyebrows furrowed as she looked at Liu Liansha and said, "I just punished you to retreat for a month, not even two days have passed, and you ran out on your own..."
"Master, let's not talk about this for now. I really have something urgent to tell you!" Liu Liansha interrupted Su Lengyun's words.
Seeing Liu Liansha's face pale and anxious, Su Lengyun asked, "What's wrong"
"Can we, maybe, talk inside" Liu Liansha looked around at the several senior sisters and whispered.
"Come in with me." Su Lengyun turned and walked into the curtain.
After entering the inner hall, Su Lengyun looked at Liu Liansha and asked, “Tell me, what’s going on”
Liu Liansha immediately knelt down and said, "Master, my soul has been branded with a curse. You must save me."
"What" Su Lengyun's face changed, taking two steps forward and extending her fair hand to place it on Liu Liansha's head.
A wave of white light emanated from her palm, and afterward, she indeed sensed a peculiar energy flowing within Liu Liansha's body.
This aura was very faint and subtle, concealed within Liu Liansha's body.
Su Lengyun used her divine sense to search for this aura.
But after searching for a while, I could never pinpoint the exact location of this aura.
Su Lengyun frowned and said, "Lian Sha, tell me, when did you get this curse mark"
The Cursed Seal Technique is actually a soul manipulation technique.
But the art of soul and spirit manipulation is the most obscure and difficult to understand among all magical arts. Few people are willing to study it, and even fewer succeed in mastering it.
Su Lengyun didn't know much about soul-binding arts and felt a bit helpless.
"It's me...ah..." Liu Liansha hadn't finished speaking when she let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.
Su Lengyun burst out with a surge of aura, her eyes cold as she spoke, "Who are you"
"Not bad, breaking through to the Martial Venerable realm in over twenty years." Fang Yu's voice appeared within the inner hall.
Su Lengyun's face changed slightly, because she felt the voice was very familiar.
It was the voice of someone she had often thought about over the years.
"I have no ill will towards this disciple of mine. On the contrary, it was she who wanted to attack me for one hundred million dollars first. Now, I'm just giving her a little punishment, making her do some things for me." Fang Yu said.
"Who... are you" Su Lengyun asked hesitantly.
Fang Yu didn't answer the question, but said to Liu Liansha: "Remember to do what I told you."
After that, Fang Yu fell silent again.
Su Lengyun stood there for a moment, lost in thought.
Liu Liansha's face was pale, she struggled to her feet.
Seeing her master lost in thought, Liu Liansha trembled and asked, "Master... am I beyond saving"
Su Lengyun came to her senses and asked, "Lian Sha, who put the curse mark on you"
He’s called Fang Yu. This person is very strange, he looks only in his twenties, and his cultivation level is just like mine, a congenital warrior, but his true strength is very strong, and he is extremely insidious. I am…” Liu Liansha kept talking, not noticing the change in Su Lengyun's eyes.
At this moment, Su Lengyun stood rooted to the spot, her eyes slightly red-rimmed.
It really is him!
It's Fang Yu!
She never thought she would see Fang Yu again in her life.
When she heard that familiar voice just now, she was stunned.
She thought she had misheard.
After listening to Liu Liansha's words, she was certain.
This person, it really is Fang Yu!
"Lian Sha, where did you meet him" Su Lengyun looked at Liu Lian Sha and asked.
"In Jianghai City, in the south of the Yangtze River..." Seeing Master's eyes slightly red, Liu Liansha's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be... that she's really beyond saving
"Master, am I hopeless" Liu Liansha asked with a pale face and trembling voice.
"Um... no, you're fine. You'll be alright." Su Lengyun's words were a bit jumbled due to her excitement.
In Liu Liansha's heart, her master always appeared to be calm and composed.
Now, Su Lengyun couldn't even speak clearly, her eyes were red.
"Master was just comforting me... I must be seriously ill. I'm going to die..." Liu Liansha only felt a wave of weakness throughout her body.
She's only twenty-three, she has a long life ahead of her, and she hasn't earned enough money yet!
To die like this, it's too tragic.
Do you know Fang Yu's current address Su Lengyun asked again.
"...I see." Liu Liansha replied weakly.
"Alright, then tomorrow I'll go to Jianghai City with you to find him." Su Lengyun bit her lip, hiding the excitement in her heart.
"Master, you're going to go find Fang Yu with me!” A glimmer flashed in Liu Liansha’s eyes.
With Master's strength, there is a possibility of defeating Fang Yu!
If she can truly defeat Fang Yu, the curse mark on her body will naturally be lifted!
"Master, thank you!" Liu Liansha knelt down again.
……
He should have met Su Lengyun ten or twenty years ago.
Back then, he was living in Yangzhou, Huaibei.
The Su family was a secular family from Yangzhou with considerable wealth and influence, ranking among the top three in the city.
But due to the fact that the head of the Su family at that time was too upright and unwilling to cooperate with other families to do things that were harmful but could bring huge profits.
Not only that, but he also reported these families' illegal businesses to the authorities.
Over time, the Su family came to be resented by more and more families.
Thus, several influential families joined forces, spending a fortune to hire dozens of assassins who stormed into the Su residence, killing anyone they encountered.
That night, Fang Yu happened to be out for supper and passed by the Su family mansion. He noticed something was happening inside.
He didn't want to get involved, but the sound of a girl crying caught his attention.
He turned his head and saw, in the courtyard of the large house, a little girl of six or seven years old sitting on the ground.
The little girl's hair was sky blue, which was especially peculiar.
A middle-aged man stood in front of her, with many wounds on his body that were bleeding profusely, but he still reached out to protect the little girl.
“You can kill me, but please spare my children!” The head of the Su family roared with bloodshot eyes.
"I'm sorry, Master Su, but we received orders to wipe out your entire Su family."
The killer chuckled coldly, raising his sword and swinging it towards the little girl.
The head of the Su family threw himself forward with all his might, using his own back to shield the little girl from the sword.
The little girl was frightened and cried out for her father.
Her father did not respond again.
At this moment, the assassin once again raised his long sword.
The girl cried out and instinctively scrambled outwards, just catching the eye of Fang Yu who stood outside the door.
Fang Yu saw the fear and sadness in the girl's big eyes, as well as her glistening tears.
At that moment, Fang Yu's heart, which had long been numb, trembled slightly.
So, he saved the girl and killed all the assassins.
After that, he kept the girl with him for about half a year.
Six months later, because the girl's yin constitution was very suitable for cultivating the Bing Xin Jue of the Frost Cold Palace, Fang Yu sent the girl to the Frost Cold Palace and then left Huaibei.
I saw the girl again today.
This girl is Su Lengyun, now the mistress of the Frost Cold Palace.
"Time flies. I still remember her as a little girl who loved candy," Fang Yu thought to himself.
……
The next morning, Fang Yu walked out of the apartment complex and ran into two men in plain clothes.
"Mr. Fang, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!ang Yu smiled faintly, turned her head to look at the location by the lake, and flew over."Whoosh..."In a short while, Fang Yu returned to Huixu's side.Those cultivators from the Demon-Slaying Sect we...
