“Xiaolu, did she notice something?”
Bai Xu was a little nervous being stared at like that.
If Bai Liu came to snatch him now, there would definitely be a battle and casualties.
Su Xiaolu looked at Bai Liu calmly and said calmly, “It’s fine if she noticed it.”
Bai Liu was not stupid. When she calmed down, she would definitely feel that something was wrong. However, Ji Changyuan was not putting on an act. He was indeed not as great as Bai Liu thought.
Even though she knew that it was a scheme, Bai Liu clearly understood that Ji Changyuan was not what she had imagined. Her dream had already been disillusioned, and she no longer had any persistence in facing Ji Changyuan, so she would not snatch him away anymore.
Sometimes, it was hard to let go.
But when one really put it down and looked back, one would realize that it was only so-so.
Bai Xu also understood. She looked at Bai Liu again and felt an indescribable emotion in her heart. She did not know what it was, but she did not feel good.
After returning to the Ji family, Ji Changyuan began to make arrangements for his funeral.
In the last few days, after making arrangements for his funeral, he stopped talking. He didn’t want to say anything else. Later, when Su Xiaolu wanted to get acupuncture, he refused.
He had done what he wanted to do. There were no regrets or wishes. He would spend the last few days quietly.
Every morning, he would wake up and sleep. Without doing anything, he would let the servants carry him to the chaise lounge in the courtyard. He would always stare in one direction. No one knew what he was looking at.
Even when he passed on, it was so quiet. No one knew when he passed.
It was only when the servants were about to carry him back that night that they realized that he was completely dead.
The Ji family hung up. Su Xiaolu, Little Niu, and Su Kuo also bade farewell to Bai Xu and Hu Changshou.
After asking where the foreign land was, they went straight to the foreign land to search for treasures and fight.
Several months passed. When she came out and received the news, she realized that Bai Xu had sent her an invitation. When Su Kuo and Little Niu returned to the capital, Su Xiaolu went to the wedding banquet.
She personally watched Bai Xu get married. She was dressed very beautifully, like a flower in bloom.
Bai Xu’s mother, Madam Zhou, smiled kindly as she combed Bai Xu’s hair.
Su Xiaolu gave her a generous gift.
She saw Bai Yu again and realized that the little girl had changed a lot. There was no longer any hostility in her eyes. Her aptitude was not good, and she would not be able to cultivate for long. In the end, she would return to the secular world.
But she also seemed to have found herself. This was good.
After the wedding banquet, Su Xiaolu left alone.
She rode alone.
She did not expect to be separated from her Junior Brother, Su Kuo, for several years. She had been working hard to search for treasures in the foreign land. Gradually, many people who cultivated were familiar with her. She was an advanced female cultivator with powerful sword techniques.
Among them, she had also been pursued by many male cultivators. Some were polite, and some were impolite. She was polite and barbaric according to the situation, so she was called the heartless female fiend.
People said that there were two female fiends in this world. One was her, and the other was her disciple.
Su Xiaolu did not care. Rumors were just rumors, and they did not dare to say it in front of her.
This time, a phenomenon appeared in the north. Su Xiaolu rushed over.
When she arrived at Qianxue City, it was midsummer. Su Xiaolu entered the inn to get a room and paid the money. Suddenly, a shout came from beside her.
“Move aside. Shopkeeper, three upper rooms.”
The person was as tall as half a small hill. He was burly and his face was rough. Apart from his eyes, it was difficult to see anything else.
The shopkeeper immediately smiled apologetically and said, “I’m really sorry. There are only two upper rooms left in our shop.”
The man frowned and looked at Su Xiaolu coldly. “Give us her room.”
Snatching and bullying the weak was nothing unusual in the cultivation world. This was a world where strength was respected.
The shopkeeper looked troubled and subconsciously looked at Su Xiaolu.
When they did business, they naturally wanted everything to be safe. They wanted the big matter to be reduced to a small matter. This bearded man did not look easy to deal with, but this girl looked kind. He believed that she was unwilling to fight.
“Miss Su, I’m really sorry. Why don’t you stay in our middle room? It’s just a little smaller. Everything else is the same.”
The shopkeeper smiled at Su Xiaolu.
Su Xiaolu smiled. She took out the banknotes and slapped them on the table. “I want all three upper rooms.”
“You’re courting death!”
The man felt provoked and his eyes were about to spit fire. His body was as big as a mountain. In front of Su Xiaolu, he was several times bigger than her. His aura and pressure pressed down on Su Xiaolu like a mountain.
Su Xiaolu felt it. She guessed that the man should be an earth-element superpower user.
She was not afraid of fighting at all.
She looked at the man and invisibly controlled the blood in his body. Instantly, the man’s face turned red.
Seeing that the man was about to suffocate to death and the difference in strength was obvious, the man’s accomplice immediately stood up and cupped his hands politely. “Miss, please calm down. My brother is hot-tempered and irritable. I hope you won’t hold a grudge. This upper room is all yours. We won’t fight with you anymore.”
Since they could not win, they naturally had to leave when they could.
Su Xiaolu sneered. “Since you’re blind, you don’t need these eyes.”
As soon as Su Xiaolu finished speaking, the man immediately covered his eyes and wailed.
He was about to flare up when he felt suffocated.
His brother was injured, and the man was anxious. However, he knew that he was inferior, so he endured it and begged, “Miss, please be magnanimous. My brother has already been punished. He has paid the price for his rudeness.”
His brother was already a Golden Core cultivator, but he was actually defeated by this woman. How terrifying was her cultivation?
They had come here to fight for the treasure to reach a higher level. Now, they had lost their footing. It was really disappointing.
“Get lost.”
Su Xiaolu spat out two words coldly and retracted her hand.
The man immediately brought his brother out of the inn.
Su Xiaolu went up too.
The room was going to be opened anyway. So be it.
Su Xiaolu was a little helpless. She did not know when it started, but the people who cultivated were all belligerent. There were always those who blindly provoked her.
Fortunately, she was strong enough and did not have to suffer.
Thinking of this, she really couldn’t stop. She had to work harder to cultivate. She felt that she was about to break through to the late-stage Golden Core realm, but she was still a little lacking. She could vaguely sense that she could gain something this time, so she rushed over this time.
After settling down, Su Xiaolu waited.
This time, the phenomenon was a secret realm. Some people came out from inside and said that it was very strange inside. They did not feel good, so they did not continue to enter. This way, more and more people were attracted here.
Zhou Zhi also received the news. He asked Su Xiaolu to wait for him to go in together. In the past two years, the two of them had used Dharma artifacts and enchanted armaments to communicate. Su Xiaolu agreed to wait for him. She arrived first, so she stayed at the inn and waited.
Time passed quickly. It had been a few years since they last met. She was 60 years old this year..
