Chapter 596 The Familiar Bamboo Building

The Owner of the Ghost Valley took on a ghastly expression. He thought Su Jiuzhou was swollen with arrogance. He stooped so low, but she still bore a grudge against him and the sect.

At this moment, he had forgotten who was too generous in allowing Elder Su to be rude to Su Li. Elder Su’ s words didn’t contain any sense of asking for help.

When he was losing in thought, Su Li had already stepped out of the palace. She was about to leave.

“Hold on!!”

The Owner of the Ghost Valley finally gritted his teeth and chased her up. He said decisively, “As long as Fellow Practitioner Su can help us, I will send you Ghost Valley Meditation Direction which was a lost holy method in our sect as a return present!”

Ghost Valley Meditation Direction?

Su Li paused and turned around.

The Owner of the Ghost Valley sighed inwardly. He continued, “Yes, it is the holy method left by the ancestors. But now, no one in the sect can master it.”

“Isn’t that a waste book?”

Su Li suddenly showed an expression of disappointment. The Owner of the Ghost Valley hurriedly added, “Fellow Practitioner Su, wait a minute. We can’t master it. It doesn’t mean that you can’t do that. You are talented and the first of Tianjiao List. Maybe this holy method is easy for you. Maybe you can give full play to it and even enhance it!”

“It sounds reasonable.”

Su Li wavered, “Could you show it to me?”

“Yes!”

The Owner of the Ghost Valley was delighted. He wanted to trade this treasure for her help.Then he immediately left here with Su Li.

At the gate of the palace, Yao Shichuan witnessed the whole process of their talking. His eyes were dull.

If the sect wanted to regain its vitality, it must give up something valuable. He understood that, but he never expected that the owner would give her such an invaluable asset.

“Furthermore, Su Jiuzhou is not a superficial person who likes to put her mood on her face.”

Yao Shichuan was shocked, “Is the owner fooled?”

He lost in thought. The more he thought about it, the more he felt wrong. Then he began to chase them, but Su Li and the owner were too fast. He couldn’t see any trace of them.

…

Su Li followed the Owner of the Ghost Valley from the back door of the Ghost Valley into the mountain. When they went deeper into the mountain, the forest became more and more luxuriant. The spiritual herbs could be seen almost everywhere. Although the spiritual herbs were still young, it could show the profound foundation of Ghost Valley. The Owner of the Ghost Valley was humble.

“This forest of spiritual herbs is the last foundation of Ghost Valley. The mountain base here is personally arranged by the founder of Ghost Valley. It relies on natural nourishment, and it gathers pneuma without being affected by the sect. The purpose is to prevent the death of all the spiritual herbs resulting from the decline of the sect.”

Su Li listened to him quietly without saying a word.

She didn’t recall any memory in the sect of Ghost Valley. But now, she could…

Seeing that Su Li had no interest in talking with him, the Owner of the Ghost Valley sighed and continued to lead the way.

The forest became denser, shutting out the sunshine. It became dimmer and dimmer. Soon it was dark all of a sudden. But Su Li’s sight was not affected by it.

She saw a lot of priceless spiritual herbs, including the spiritual herbs that she was using. Some spiritual herbs must have been grown for at least tens of thousands of years.

“Ha-ha…”

Su Li chuckled, “Don’t you afraid that I rob all of these spiritual herbs?”

The owner of Ghost Valley laughed, “I believe Fellow Practitioner Su isn’t such a short-sighted person.”

Su Li said, “Maybe I am.”

Hearing this, the Owner of Ghost Valley maintained his smile and motioned to her, “This way.”

After they walked through the dense forest, a familiar two-story bamboo building suddenly came into view. The stream beside the bamboo building was clear and flowing. The scenery here was picturesque.

Su Li was startled slightly and quickly came to her senses. Then light flashed through her eyes.

Who could that be?

The Owner of the Ghost Valley approached the bamboo building and opened the door of its first floor, “This is the residence of the junior grandmaster of the sect, where all the important things of the sect are preserved.”

Then he came to the bookshelf and carefully took out an ancient book wrapped in a blue cover. He handed it to Su Li.

Su Li took the book and opened it. Seeing the familiar words on it, Su Li smiled, “Why don’t I see the junior grandmaster of your sect?”

Her careless attitude made the Owner of the Ghost Valley angry. The owner didn’t show his feeling on his face. He only replied awkwardly, “The junior grandmasterhardly shows up. Fellow Practitioner Su, please don’t mind that.”

Snap!

Su Li closed the book and looked at the Owner of the Ghost Valley quizzically, “You are not the real Owner of the Ghost Valley, right?”

The Owner of the Ghost Valleywas stunned. Then he gave a wry smile, “Fellow Practitioner Su, what are you talking about?”

Su Li threw the book to the Owner of Ghost Valley and wandered around in the bamboo building for a while. Then she went out. The Owner of Ghost Valley quickly followed and asked, “Fellow Practitioner Su, what are you doing? The foundation of the medicine mountain of my sect…”

Swish!

Before he could finish his words, Su Li disappeared. The Owner of Ghost Valley was dazedfor a moment, and then he saw that Su Li pushed open the door of the second floor.

His face changed suddenly and he shouted, “Fellow Practitioner Su, don’t do that!”

Creak—

Accompanied by the harsh sound, Su Li saw a spotless bedroom. Someone often ventilated this room, so it was not stifling. There was even a hint of sandalwood.

The bamboo bed, wooden table, and even the utensils on the table were exactly the same as those in the bamboo building where she had lived in the yard of the valley outside Dasu Town in those days.

Who was it?

“Fellow Practitioner Su, don’t enter the room!”

The Owner of the Ghost Valley stumbled to her, “It’s arranged by the junior grandmaster himself. No one is allowed to come into this room. It’s the first time that I have seen the scene inside it. Su…oh dear!”

Before he could finish his words, he saw Su Li entered the room. It made him very sad. He sighed deeply with bitter expression on his face.

Originally, he wanted to rely on the deterrence of the junior grandmaster and Ghost Valley Meditation Directionto make Su Jiuzhou change her mind. But now his plan failed.

There was no need to mention saving the sect at this time. Maybe it would take him a long time to calm the junior grandmaster down.

“It’s still the meditation sandalwood that I have used back then. It has to be made by myself and could not be bought from the outside world.”

Su Li calmed down and walked into the room. She already had a rough outline to the room’s owner in her mind.

“What is that?”

Su Li suddenly noticed that the wall beside the incense burner was a little weird. She walked over and touched the wall lightly. Then the bamboo wall suddenly rippled like water, revealing what was hidden behind it.

It was just a memorial tablet. But the name on it…

The Owner of the Ghost Valley came over curiously. When he saw what was written on it, he was suddenly petrified.

“To comfort the spirit of Junior Sister Apprentice SuLi—Tantai Yu.”

It was really you.

Su Li curled up her lips and stepped back a few meters suddenly.

When the Owner of Ghost Valley lost in thought, he was slapped on his face by an invisible wave without warning. He was slapped away from the bamboo window and fell into the forest upside down. He cried aggrievedly,

“Junior Grandmaster!”

At the door, a young man dressed simply in linen appeared suddenly. He stared at Su Li with cold eyes, “Who are you? Why do you break into my bamboo building?”

“Your bamboo building?”

Su Li looked at the face that looked thinner and older compared to it in the past, and then she chuckled, “How to prove that this bamboo building belongs to you?”

The thin young man’s face was cold. He entered the room and saw the memorial tablet that had been cancelled the camouflage on it. His pupils shrank, and then he disappeared suddenly.

Su Li wore a dry face and withdrew again.

A violent shaking force sweptthrough the air, but it didn’t touch Su Li. Then this force dispersed slowly.

“Do you see it?”

The thin young man stood in front of the memorial tablet, looking at Su Li with cold eyes which contained murderous intent.

Now that Su Li saw it, he would never let her leave alive, otherwise…

Su Li suddenly beamed when she saw his reaction, “Senior Fellow Apprentice Tantai, what makes you so careful?”

The thin young man was stunned immediately. Then his eyes fixed on Su Li. It was not the face in his memory, but her manner of talking… He couldn’t help but quiver, and his voice became hoarse.

“You… What do you call me?”

Su Li walked closer, and the thin young man stepped back subconsciously. He… What was he afraid of?

Suddenly, he saw a thing appeared in the hand of that woman in front of him. It was the memorial tablet.

He widened his eyes and saw the woman in front of him smile. Then the memorial tablet in her hand turned into powder. At the same time, the strange face was suddenly distorted, and then it became clear again. It was the most familiar face of him.

“I am still alive. Senior Fellow Apprentice, what are you doing?”

Su Li smiled, as if the black lotus at the corner of her eyebrows bloomed.

Tantai Yu’s breath stopped for a moment, and tears suddenly blurred his eyes…

The cold moonlight illuminated the bamboo building, as well as the cups on the stone table in front of the building.

With a big bump on his head, the Owner of the Ghost Valley honestly poured Su Li and Tantai Yu wine and then stood behind them with an aggrieved expression.

“Hahaha, in spite of Nangong’s old facial features, he is only a thousand years old. He was found and raised by the Master back then. Later, he had an accident that his life was almost sucked dry by a spiritual herb. Fortunately, the Master appeared in time and saved his life.”

Tantai Yu smiled, looking at the young and familiar face on the other side. There was no such a moment happier than now for him. He said, “It is more than a thousand years. Junior Sister Apprentice, I didn’t expect that you were alive.”

Su Li glanced at Nangong and did not tell him her own experience. She just asked, “Where is the Master?”

Tantai Yu smiled stiffly, “Master is out…”

“Senior Fellow Apprentice.”

Su Li stared at Tantai Yu’s face, “You are not good at lying.”

Tantai Yu smiled bitterly and waved his hand to knock out Nangong, “Master has been missing for hundreds of years. We were besieged by Fate Palace back then. I relied on the treasure left by the old man of Tianxing to shield from Fate Palace’s crafty plot. After I used the treasure, I was separated from the Master. It has been so many years. I am afraid that…”

“I see…”

Su Li dropped her gaze, “It doesn’t matter. I will check out whether the Master is still alive or not. As long as I am still alive, Fate Palace will be…shattered by me sooner or later!”
