Chapter 182 - Massacre in the ghost lands Part 10

After having their fun, the group continued to wander outside the city for a while before silently retreating to a quiet corner in the outskirts.

This time they had visited Hangzhou for two main things. Firstly, for obtaining the special array ores and the other mission was to avenge Wang Yu's grievances.

Since they had to dig out the special ores from the mine, they decided to start working on this while waiting for the Qin family to make a move.

Su Lin was sure that the Qin family would take their time before confronting them in fear of encountering someone stronger than them.

They would probably even bring out all the cards they held for the fight, even their trump card, and last resort.

After all, the world of cultivators was a much more dangerous and treacherous world compared to the normal one.

When they reached the mine area, Su Lin yawned and stretched her body lazily as she instructed her students to work hard and dig out every single piece of the priceless treasure.

Monkey rolled his eyes. If Su Lin wanted she could easily line up multiple smoothened cubes withing seconds. But instead, this lazy demoness was pushing all the hard labor onto them.

Monkey wanted to protest, but when he saw Luther and Rabbit already starting to hit the rocks with a serious expression on their faces, he couldn't bring himself to say anything.

This hen-pecked husband and the sincere brother next to him were one day going to be the death of him! Sigh...

And thus in the wee hours of the cold freezing night, three figures silently grunted and displayed their magnificent strength to a lifeless yet invaluable pile of rocks.

The loud clanking noises echoed in the silent dark night uninterrupted for a long time, while Su Lin patiently waited for the interested party to show up.

The translucent orb in her hand mysteriously glowed in the darkness of the night, as she tossed it up and down like a plain old play ball.

If one looked closely into it they could see dozens of screaming faces. It was very ominous to even glance at.

"Your wife is probably the only person who would play with such a scary thing." Monkey gnashed his teeth, as he eyed Su Lin's blase figure.

Luther chuckled gazing affectionately at his precious wifey. "Don't be so lazy. This is training."

"Bro! Your wife is just making us do hard labor. What the heck kind of training is this?"

"Can you really touch your heart and tell me that everything she says is the truth?" Monkey cried inside, though he already knew that there was no point in venting out to this wife slave.

"Shut up Monkey. You are disturbing me. I am starting to fall behind first brother in the ore count." Rabbit scoffed angrily.

"Damned idiots. She is scamming us mercilessly!!! Why are you even competing in this stupid thing?? WHERE DID ALL THE SANE PEOPLE DISAPPEAR???"

Unfortunately, the Qin family took their sweet time to arrive and Monkey's misery lasted almost all the way until the break of dawn.

When the faint rays of sunlight surfaced in the pitch-black darkness, an old and archaic voice echoed in their midst.

"Who dared to hurt the son of our Qin family?"

The archaic voice boomed ferociously as an extremely old man emerged from the darkness along with a dozen or more black-robed men.

His old weathered face was visibly shaking with anger as he approached the nonchalant woman lying on the ground.

She seemed to be intently gazing at the beauty of the irregular hues breaking out in the sky, even after their obvious arrival.

Her beautiful eyelashes fluttered as she took her time, calmly sat up straight, and looked up at the old man.

"Greetings. Sect leader." Su Lin revealed a gentle smile as she calmly addressed the powerful old man without the slightest hint of fear or intimidation.

Wang Yu was already standing next to her. Luther and the other two immediately dashed towards Su Lin and stood near her.

Luther's eyes defensively gazed at the powerful machine guns wielded by most of the black-robed figures.

He looked at Su Lin who gave an understanding nod.

He really didn't need to worry about guns and such at this stage. Bringing guns to a cultivator's battlefield is akin to bringing a knife to a gunner's battlefield.

But still, she wanted to put her husband's mind at ease, so Su Lin extended her tender arms forward. 

And in the next instant, small bursts of light were flying around every which way.

Within the blink of an eye, all the machine guns laid on the ground, broken and useless.

The old man gasped in surprise. He looked around him in utter disbelief.

The men standing around him had bȧrėly even noticed anything amiss.

After a good few minutes, the Qin family patriarch recovered from his initial shock and cleared his throat.

He now looked at the woman in front of him in an entirely new light.

The woman in front of him was at the least a thousand times more powerful than he ever was.

Actually, her strength could even be compared to those ancient monsters residing in the Nine gates.

Who was this stranger? How the hell did that useless trash, Qin Jinguan anger a monster like this?? 

He couldn't help but wish he had been more patient and approached this stranger, no this senior, with a friendly attitude instead of his harsh interrogating tone.

But it was not too late.

The old man was wiser than the hooligans who surrounded him and quickly adjusted his tone.

"Senior, please kindly tell me what brings you here?" He humbly bowed towards Su Lin and asked with absolute respect in his demeanor.
