Chapter 532: Coming to Settle Accounts 9

Su Zian clenched his fists tightly, his gloomy face flickering between light and shadow; no one knew what he was thinking.

"You stop right there!" Su Zian roared angrily in frustration.

"Does Father have any other instructions?" Su Luo turned around leisurely, smiling calmly.

Su Zian gritted his teeth and took a few deep breaths, forcing himself to quickly calm his emotions.

He was not stupid; although he did not like Su Luo, this Stinky Girl was, after all, a descendant of the Su Family.

Now that Su Qing's whereabouts were unknown, Su Luo, who had been able to defeat Su Qing, was undoubtedly a rising star.

"Take this secret manual, Cultivate well, and reach the Fifth Rank as soon as possible!" Su Zian threw a tattered blue-covered book at Su Luo.

Was this him trying to make amends with her? Su Luo found it extremely amusing in her heart.

Su Zian's emotions were indeed complicated at this moment; no wonder his behavior was so unpredictable.

Su Luo put away the secret manual and turned to leave, but Su Zian's cold voice came: "People from Yaochi Palace are coming tomorrow. You are to bring that Little Thing to me."

Yaochi Palace? That Yaochi Palace of the Yaochi Fairy? That Yaochi Palace of Li Aotian?

Bei Chenying's words surfaced in Su Luo's mind.

He said that the Li Family linked Li Aotian's death to her. If so, could the Li Family be coming to… settle accounts this time?

Su Zian was really something. He wanted the Little Divine Dragon, but was it to curry favor with the Li Family?

The good mood Su Luo had just felt from receiving the secret manual was instantly ruined. She replied indifferently: "Impossible."

"What?!" This was the first time someone had dared to openly refuse Su Zian.

"I said, im-pos-si-ble!" Su Luo's voice was icy, like the accumulated snow on a thousand-year glacier, indifferent and cold.

"Say that to me one more time!" Su Zian's eyes widened in anger, wishing he could pounce over and strangle Su Luo immediately.

The Yaochi Li Family, how noble were they? If he could befriend them, it would be a blessing for the Su Family!

But how could Su Zian know that Su Luo had completely offended the Yaochi Fairy, and that Li Aotian had also died because of her?

The hatred between the two sides was irreconcilable; it was already a life-and-death feud, so how could there be any chance of cooperation?

Su Luo looked at him coldly and said indifferently: "Want to curry favor with Yaochi Palace? I think that won't be necessary."

"You—" Su Zian angrily raised his palm.

But Su Luo curled the corners of her lips into a cold smile: "Forgot to mention one thing, I was lying to you just now. The Little Puppy wasn't picked up on the road."

"Finally willing to tell the truth?" Su Zian gave a sinister smile.

"Hmm, because the Little Puppy was given to me by a big shot. He told me not to tell outsiders, but since Father is not an outsider, I assume he won't blame me." Su Luo looked at Su Zian with a smile.

"Such a precious spirit pet, who gave it to you? Could it be…" Thinking of that person, Su Zian was instantly doused with a bucket of cold water from head to toe, and his boiling heart instantly cooled down.

On the dueling grounds, His Highness Prince Jin appeared hand-in-hand with Su Luo. After the battle, he took Su Luo's hand and they both left together.

This news spread like wildfire throughout the capital as if it had wings. How could the well-informed Su Zian not know?

"Father guessed correctly." Since Su Zian had guessed it was His Highness Prince Jin himself, Su Luo was, of course, ambiguous about it.

In fact, to be more precise, it should be that when she and His Highness Prince Jin went to the Sunset Mountain Range, the Little Puppy voluntarily offered itself. But Su Luo would not be kind enough to explain.

"You go out first." Su Zian shook his head and waved his hand to signal Su Luo to leave.

At this moment, his expression was quite complicated.
