Reasoning to Convince to Seize Heavenly Secrets, Good Words Can't Persuade a Damned Ghost

Seeing Yun Qingxuan still hesitating, Su Li knew he had to be decisive!

Regardless of Zhuge Wuwei's or Hua Yunxiao's true intentions, meeting Zhuge Chunqiu would surely bring no good.

And if he were to meet Hua Lingshang, he would undoubtedly be as good as dead!

He had no trump cards to contend with a monster who had lived for at least five thousand years, nor was he as important as he had previously imagined!

Su Li silently withdrew his gaze, not showing the slightest hint of disappointment.

Yun Qingxuan was still in a state of hesitation and was still a reluctant teammate. If he showed disappointment or hostility now, the outcome would only be more tragic.

Pity the person, but they must have hateful aspects!

This madwoman, who could slaughter her own younger brother at any moment, had no bottom line!

Su Li felt the heavy pressure on his body and forcefully moved himself.

He was not affected by abilities like law imprints, but these methods usually contained physical components, and physical abilities could affect him.

"Wait!"

Su Li spoke without hindrance, his voice tinged with displeasure, and he rebuked coldly.

"Hmm? Master Su, do you have any objections? Or are you showing great compassion and caring about the lives of some ants? Do you know that if the Demonic Soul truly revives, the entire Wuyue City, and even the entire Mingshan Prefecture, will suffer untold misery?"

Zhuge Wuwei frowned, also quite displeased.

If such a situation were to occur, this delay would be a catastrophic matter!

Su Li thought to himself, What does the death of the entire Mingshan Prefecture have to do with me? If you're so great, why don't you die yourself? Besides, you, who use righteousness to seek personal gain, are you even qualified to say such things?

Su Li snorted lightly and sneered, "Leaving now means heading west, right? Given Hua Yunxiao's Destiny and the signs of the spread of his brow bone's destiny, we will all perish soon.

If you want to die, you can leave anytime. As for me, I won't be leaving for now. The earliest I'll leave is midnight, or perhaps three quarters past noon tomorrow.

Of course, you could also suppress me and forcibly take me.

But, are you sure you want to do that?

Not to mention whether my master would care about me, even my life-bound soul weapon, the 'Five Emperors Ancient Coin', would probably not want to see such a scene unfold."

Since the other party had already made a move, Su Li considered it and became forceful.

It was a dead end anyway. If things really turned sour, he could only gamble on whether the system had any special functions and if the Five Emperors Ancient Coin had any life-saving capabilities!

Furthermore, the Spiritual Qi in his body had not completely dissipated yet. Activating the prepared 'Wind Spirit Dust Avoiding Armor' and those guardian talismans should allow him to hold on for a few more seconds.

And in these few seconds, he would have to see Yun Qingxuan's performance--

Yun Qingxuan, in her current state, could mobilize the Soul Perishing Tea Can, and Su Li had personally experienced its power once.

Also, the Soul Locking Tower in her hand was also top-tier in power!

If she were to make a move in this state, using the Soul Perishing Tea Can or the Soul Locking Tower to take him away, although dangerous, would not be too difficult.

But if he remained silent now, he would completely lose his chance to speak.

Once he reached the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion and faced Zhuge Chunqiu, who was even more unfathomable than Zhuge Wuwei, all his secrets would be completely exposed!

Then, when the other party discovered he was talking nonsense, the probability of him being refined to death by Hua Lingshang would be one hundred percent!

Su Li's displeased words, however, caused Zhuge Wuwei's expression to suddenly darken.

In that instant, Su Li felt a terrifying impact crushing down on him. It felt like a lightning strike hitting a high-voltage wire, causing a violent explosion. The powerful impact made Su Li feel as if he had been electrocuted all over, his eardrums instantly burst, and his internal organs felt like they had been struck by a heavy drum hammer, as if they were torn and displaced!

The feeling was painful.

But even more so than the pain was a furious rage that originated from the depths of his bloodline, even his soul!

It was as if the anger from the depths of his body, mind, and soul ignited with a roar.

"I'm going to kill you! Kill you! Kill your entire clan!"

Even a common man's anger can spill blood five steps away!

But in this world, the tragedy of ants is that they are far inferior to even common men, because ants don't even have the right to spill blood five steps away!

Su Li's blood surged, and he couldn't control it. Blood flowed from his mouth.

Blood also streamed from the corners of his eyes, nose, and ears.

He wiped his face, and his hand was covered in crimson.

Although he had long known that he was like a clown, constantly being mocked, never before had he been so directly and openly humiliated.

Su Li took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the rage that was about to erupt, his body trembling!

"Master Su."

"Master Su."

Hua Ziyan and Mu Yuxi cried out in alarm and immediately rushed over.

Zhuge Qingchen's expression froze, and he directly shattered the restrictive area with a palm strike, angrily roaring at Zhuge Wuwei, "Master, what are you doing?! Bullying Master Su who is defenseless? What is your strength, Master, and what is Master Su's strength?!"

"Qingchen, you're becoming more and more insolent! How dare you speak to your master like that? Young friend Su only suffered a backlash from the Heavenly Secrets. I was just helping him suppress his qi and blood! He's fine now."

Zhuge Wuwei's expression was gentle, and he reprimanded with a hint of blame, then appeared magnanimous.

Zhuge Qingchen froze, then looked at Su Li.

At this moment, Su Li was already being held by Hua Ziyan and Mu Yuxi.

He glanced at Zhuge Wuwei and spat a mouthful of blood directly at Zhuge Wuwei's face.

Zhuge Wuwei raised his hand and waved, and a transparent light screen appeared, blocking the blood.

"Young friend Su, the path of deduction has a great backlash. Young man, you must be patient and build your foundation steadily. Otherwise, with your foundation, if you deduce a few more times, I fear the Heavenly Secrets backlash will put your life in danger."

Zhuge Wuwei didn't take it to heart, he smiled, his tone very gentle, like a kind elder.

Just as Su Li was about to speak, Mu Yuxi suddenly raised her hand, took out a Level 1 Mysterious grade Qi and Blood Pill, and gently fed it to Su Li, saying softly, "Master Su, don't speak, calm your Qi and blood first and recover from your injuries."

Her voice was very soft, and at the same time, with her back to Zhuge Wuwei, she gave Su Li a look, telling him to calm down.

Su Li was about to reply, but Mu Yuxi had already put the pill into his mouth and gently hugged him.

That embrace gave Su Li a very strong feeling—not of blood boiling, but rather, Mu Yuxi had the Mysterious Yin Sacred Body, a constitution that was extremely cold.

And this extreme cold aura, like ice water, instantly cooled Su Li's raging, explosive hot blood.

The next moment, the pill, carrying a warm and fragrant aura, clear as dew, flowed from his throat into his stomach, making his limbs and bones suddenly feel as if all things were returning to spring, regenerating an indescribable sense of comfort.

Su Li's heart finally calmed down completely.

At the same time, Mu Yuxi had already taken out her pink gauze sleeve and wiped the blood from his face clean.

"Master Su, Senior Zhuge's attainments in the path of Heavenly Secrets are extraordinary. Yuxi knows that Master Su is concerned about everyone's safety, but you cannot disregard your own safety because of it."

Mu Yuxi softly persuaded him again.

Su Li brought up the Life Archive System and checked. The information for Zhuge Wuwei and Hua Yunxiao was still a series of question marks.

Zhuge Qingchen's heart was filled with anger. He felt extremely angry and ashamed of his master's despicable and shameless actions, feeling utterly disgraced and somewhat guilty, feeling he had let Su Li down.

Hua Ziyan, on the other hand, believed it to be true, thinking he had truly over-deduced and gone into qi deviation, thus clashing with Zhuge Wuwei and being punished slightly by him.

Fang Yueheng felt that Su Li was too eager for success and was too impetuous.

Yun Wanchu was suspicious in his heart, even vaguely guessing that Zhuge Wuwei definitely had the intention of seizing Master Su's 'Heavenly Secrets inheritance'. However, he didn't dare to show it, so he pretended that nothing had happened, though his mood was quite heavy, and he was also worried about Su Li.

Yun Qingxuan's current information and thoughts were also a series of question marks.

On the contrary, Mu Yuxi kept silently saying in her heart, "Master Su, please don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive. That Senior Zhuge is clearly trying to provoke you... Master Su, calm down quickly, or you'll be in real danger. Even if Yuxi goes all out, she won't be able to protect you..."

Su Li closed the system panel and coughed out a large mouthful of dark red clotted blood.

"Master Su, how are you feeling now?" Mu Yuxi asked worriedly.

"I'm fine, much better now. Fairy Yuxi, thank you." Su Li's voice returned to calm. He glanced at the remaining '52361' Heavenly Secrets Value on the system panel, preparing to speed up his harvesting.

He knew that this time, he had lost face, was in a sorry state, and had completely collapsed his image as an expert.

But, it didn't matter anymore.

This time, unless he was completely dead, utterly dead!

Otherwise, this matter wouldn't end like this!

"Master Su, it's my duty." Mu Yuxi said softly.

After wiping the bloodstains from Su Li's face, she quietly returned to his side and gently took his arm, secretly circulating a trace of Spiritual Qi to prevent Su Li from acting impulsively and causing any conflict with Zhuge Wuwei.

Zhuge Wuwei calmly swept his gaze over Mu Yuxi, a hint of coldness in the depths of his eyes flashing and disappearing.

"Master Su, this matter is urgent. I hope Master Su will cooperate." Hua Yunxiao said after a long silence.

Su Li sneered, "Hua Yunxiao, I have helped your Hua Clan, Wanli Holy Land, and your daughter, haven't I? And this favor is not small, is it?"

Hua Yunxiao said solemnly, "That's right, Master Su's kindness to the Hua Clan, to me Hua, to the Wanli Holy Land, and to A Li, is greater than the heavens."

Su Li said, "My kindness is greater than the heavens, so you want to take me down first?"

Hua Yunxiao frowned and said, "Master Su is overthinking."

Su Li said, "Then you're saying I won't go? I said this journey will have a life-and-death tribulation. If we leave now, we will surely die! At the earliest, we have to wait until midnight, or tomorrow at three o'clock in the afternoon. Can't you wait this short while? What? Are you in such a hurry to kill me and seize my inheritance?"

Hua Yunxiao looked at Hua Ziyan, Zhuge Qingchen, and Fang Yueheng, who were looking at him with puzzled expressions. His face sank, and he said, "Master Su is joking. The Demonic Soul is about to awaken, and it concerns a world-ending catastrophe. How can this be treated lightly? This matter is naturally urgent!"

Hua Ziyan suddenly said, "Father, Master Su has never made a mistake since his deductions. Since this journey carries the risk of death, why not just wait? Or else..."

Hua Yunxiao looked at Zhuge Wuwei upon hearing this.

Zhuge Qingchen said coldly, "Master, I know what you're thinking, but Imperial Lord Hua just used the matter of the giant stele descending from the heavens to plot against Yun Yifan! Since Master Su can accurately deduce even such a natural disaster, there's no reason for him to deceive you at this time! Master, you don't need to feel embarrassed because someone has shown you kindness and deduced a crisis. Furthermore, our Heavenly Secrets inheritance values karma the most. Master, please don't be foolish!"

Zhuge Qingchen's words were quite impolite.

Zhuge Wuwei's expression froze slightly, then became wistful and helpless again. "Enough. It seems you truly misunderstand. Since that's the case, we'll wait until midnight."

Only then did Zhuge Qingchen's tense face relax somewhat, and the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated by more than half.

Su Li didn't want to waste any more time and said in a deep voice, "Since time is of the essence, Old Yun, have those true disciples from yesterday come over. There are some things from yesterday's divination that weren't explained clearly, and I'll clarify them now.

This is about the method to break through the calamity they will face today from Wanli Holy Land, and the calamity they will face themselves."

Now, whether it was Reasoning to Convince or harvesting Heavenly Secrets Value, he had to speed things up.

He no longer had a choice.

Yun Wanchu first bowed respectfully, then looked at Hua Yunxiao.

Hua Yunxiao nodded, then said respectfully, "Master Su, please wait a moment."

Soon, the group of disciples who had been here yesterday also arrived. This time, Yun Qingxuan couldn't hide her prying eyes, as Su Li had 'forced' her to come with such means.

Once everyone had gathered again, Su Li looked at Fang Yueheng first.

He no longer wanted to guide Fang Yueheng; this person was clearly leaning towards Zhuge Wuwei.

However, he had already established a causal link with this person yesterday, and it was a direct one.

If he didn't 'catalyze' it, he would be losing out too much!

Therefore, Su Li thought for a moment and then said solemnly, "Because I divined Heavenly Secrets, the future has changed. At noon, there will be some changes at your home, but it will be without danger. So, no matter what news you receive, do not go home. Can you do this?

As long as you don't participate in the karma, you won't trigger it, and the outcome will definitely be without danger! Once you participate, you will be irrecoverably doomed!

The method to break through this calamity is to immediately go to the Blazing Wasteland, to the Soul Suppressing Stele, and cultivate diligently. You will obtain a tremendous opportunity!

If you believe me, you will surely rise, and your family will be honored because of you!"

As soon as Su Li finished speaking, before Fang Yueheng could reply, Zhuge Wuwei suddenly spoke.

"No, Fang Yueheng, your opportunity lies to the southwest. Little Friend Su has been divining Heavenly Secrets too much recently, making him too tense. He has divined some flaws, and his words are somewhat interfered with by Heavenly Secrets. You cannot believe him entirely!

You are a true disciple of Wanli Holy Land, and you have the potential to become a Saint Son in the future. In this area, who would dare to trouble you?"

Su Li glanced at Zhuge Wuwei and didn't say anything further. He had already said what he needed to say.

Moreover, going to the Blazing Wasteland was by no means wrong, because it was a place of death that offered a sliver of hope, and also a place of great opportunity.

If Fang Yueheng died amidst the dangers of that area, then no Demonic Soul would dare to go there to seize his soul.

One reason was the dangerous geographical location, and the other was that if Fang Yueheng died there, his soul would be scattered on the spot!

If Fang Yueheng, the core element, was destroyed in this assassination plot, most of the plan would directly collapse!

And if Fang Yueheng truly succeeded in reaching the vicinity of the Soul Suppressing Stele, he would definitely obtain a great opportunity, because the Soul Suppressing Stele itself was a treasure that fell from the heavens!

Facing Su Li's direct gaze, Fang Yueheng looked at Zhuge Wuwei and respectfully said, "Disciple Fang Yueheng thanks Senior Zhuge, the Spiritual Master, for your guidance and support."

After he finished bowing, he turned and stood straight, looking at Su Li. "Master Su, I appreciate your good intentions.

Master Su, please forgive my presumption, but on the path of cultivation, one must tread steadily and not be too hasty, especially with the Way of Heavenly Secrets, which expends immense vital energy and spirit.

I also know that Master Su is eager to prove himself, to gain the favor of Saintess Li and Senior Sister Mu, to earn respect, and to become famous throughout the world.

However, this approach is truly not advisable!

Furthermore, Spiritual Master Zhuge pointed out your shortcomings with such earnestness, yet Master Su remains indifferent, turning a deaf ear, and even spewing blood in humiliation... This is the greatest disrespect to a senior!

Master Su, these words may not be pleasant to hear, but they are also Fang Yueheng's sincere thoughts, in return for the life-saving grace that Holy Lord Yun mentioned Master Su bestowed upon me.

Master Su, only through steady accumulation and deferred development can one truly become famous worldwide, not by taking shortcuts or being self-willed!"

After Fang Yueheng finished speaking, he cupped his fists slightly, did not look at Su Li, and respectfully walked behind Zhuge Wuwei.

Then, he once again became so spirited, sunny, and cute, like a warm and sunny little boy.

Su Li's expression remained unchanged. He merely nodded faintly, then looked at Que Xinyan.

"Master Su."

Que Xinyan had a hint of fawning on his face, along with his habitual, ugly, and humble smile.

He was truly dark, fat, and ugly.

Or rather, in both his past and present life, he was the ugliest man Su Li had ever seen, without exception.

With a face like that, if it were used for memes, it would surely go viral overnight, no Photoshop needed.

Yet, with such a face, Su Li saw something different in that smile.

Que Xinyan was an orphan, without parents, so he grew up among beggars.

Because he was ugly and naturally obese, he was disliked from the age of three and begged in Wuyue City.

Until the day he turned six, when he couldn't bear to see a little girl being bullied and rushed forward.

In the end, the little girl was saved by a passing cultivator, while he, coincidentally, had his Yin Earth Spirit Physique spiritual meridian aura detected by the passing Yun Wanchu, who then saved him.

Ten years later, Que Xinyan met that little girl again—Qiao Furong.

At that time, Qiao Furong had already become a true disciple of Yunxia Cave Heaven, while he was still just an outer disciple of Wanli Holy Land.

Although he felt inferior at the time, he was still very happy to talk about his childhood with Qiao Fuqu. Qiao Fuqu, disgusted, directly gave him a Spirit Stone to repay his life-saving grace and sever their karma.

Que Xinyan, however, treated it like a treasure and still cherishes it to this day.

In the days that followed, because Qiao Fuqu was very fond of practicing a special cultivation technique, after those male disciples were repeatedly used up, Qiao Fuqu would experience "heartbreak" again and again.

This cultivation technique had a major flaw: after each "heartbreak," she would fall into a state of extreme emptiness and loneliness for a period of time, during which her heart would be tormented.

Therefore, whenever she suffered from the backlash of the cultivation technique and felt depressed, she would use "heartbreak" and melancholy as excuses to talk to Que Xinyan.

And so, the tragic story of a backup boyfriend unfolded.

Later, Qiao Fuqu's simultaneous relationships with multiple disciples were accidentally exposed. Humiliated beyond measure, her cultivation was crippled by the Cloud Chasing Cave Heaven, and she was expelled from the sect.

As a result, she cried to Que Xinyan, claiming she was framed by jealous people and nearly lost her reputation... Thus, Que Xinyan exhausted his cultivation resources and depleted the contribution points of Wanli Holy Land to buy a complete Tian Shu Pill. He successfully helped Qiao Fuqu change her appearance, restore her cultivation, and invited her to join Wanli Holy Land under a 'new identity.'

With Qiao Fuqu's abilities, strength, and talent, she quickly became an elite disciple of Wanli Holy Land.

This person, now named 'Qiao Lian'er,' is precisely the one Que Xinyan was fawning over so excessively, as Su Li had advised him against.

Su Li had glanced at this person's past at the time and found her to be quite arrogant—naming herself 'Qiao Lian'er' was meant to liken herself to a 'lotus,' unstained by mud, pure in clear water, yet not seductive—My dual cultivation is not to be bullied, but to become strong! Once I become strong, tempering my body and refining my soul, I will be unstained by mud!

Is there something wrong with me wanting to become strong?

Those damned, lowly Cultivators are nothing but my tools, mere stepping stones to becoming strong!

When I return after enduring this hardship, those people will no longer receive my favor!

Only that peerless, extraordinary man, the Lord of Destiny, who appears once in a million years, can become the husband in my heart and truly possess me...

To be honest, Su Li was indeed shocked at the time, and therefore, his memory of Que Xinyan was quite profound.

At this moment, Que Xinyan faced him, just as he would face Qiao Lian'er, putting on an innocent, harmless, and what he considered the most gentle and humble smile of appeasement.
