Chapter 243 â The Wastrelâs counterattack (5)
Su Zhanâs return and his advancement had become a hot topic of discussion in Meite City. Of course, paired with that was scandals about Su Zhan and Xiao Yan fighting over Su Wan.
Needless to say, the common people in the Meite City were really interested in these kidneys of scandals. By nightfall, the story about the three had been made into an inspiring and tragic love story by wanderers and poets.
The entire Su Family was busy right now. Su Familyâs disciples were motivated by Su Zhanâs advancement and this caused them to work even harder. In their perspective, Su Zhanâs advancement was a crucial step to the Su Family becoming the most influential family in Meite City. While the youngsters were busy cultivating, Su Ya and a group of elders were having a really long meeting in the conference room.
This is an opportunity for the Su Family to surpass the Xiao Family but at the same time, there was danger.
The moment Xiao Family forms connection with the Zhao Family, theyâd impose a lot of pressure on the Su FamilyâŠ
Su Zhanâs courtyard.
While everyone was busy, General Su just woke up from a good rest and was now holding his wife in his arms, looking out the window and admiring the moon.
Su Family could only see the small Meite City but Su Rui and Su Wan knew better. This was just the novice village that female and male lead started off with. By the time the female lead leveled up, Meite City will be welcoming a bestial tide. While combating the magical beasts, Long Qianzhan would die in the battle. But before he died, he activated his castellanâs token and summoned the emergency assistance order that Orinda Countryâs royal family issued for each castellan.
The moment this token was summoned, the royal family summonersâ association members closest to Meite City would rush here to assist them as fast as they could.
It was during this time that Su Wu, Xiao Yan, Long Li, and Su Zhan were taken fancy to by the royal familyâs summonersâ academyâs teachers. They were sent to carry out the saving mission. Therefore, after the bestial tide, the four left Meite City and then started their own lives.
This was the real reason as to how the female lead started rising in power. She started gathering all types of geniuses within Orinda Country. Plus, there were many advanced magical beasts. As long as they had money, they could buy their favorite magical beasts. Of course, it depended if they had the ability to get the magical beasts to surrender to them.
Su Wu who obtained the ancient method could use it to make any magical beasts and weapons surrender to her.Then, she could transform them into her own summoning magical beasts and weapons. It was hard for her to stay low-profile when she had such exceptional tools at her will.
After what happened with Xunran State, Su Wan didnât want to give the male and female lead any chance to rise to power.
She must throttle any signs of danger while it was still sprouting.
She must get the upper hand.
âHow do you plan on dealing with Su Wu?â
Su Rui had never placed Xiao Yan in his eyes before because the leading role in this world was Su Wu.
âDonât make it sound so ugly. Sheâs your sister. Sisters need a lot of love.â
Su Wan lifted her head from Su Ruiâs arms and glanced at his handsome but skinny side profile. With a bit of laziness in his tone, âI think we should take good care of her, hm. Meite City is really nice. Itâs okay if she stays here for the rest of her life, donât you think so?â
âYou want to raise her into a useless person?â
Hearing Su Wanâs words, Su Ruiâs gaze flickered. âShe was an assassin in her past life, ruthless and cold, always guarding people with caution. Plus, she has an ability that no one else has right now. She is ambitious and capable. How could she possibly stay in Meite City, this small place forever?â
âHer biggest goldfinger right now is that white wolf. Letâs start from that first.â
General Su was most experienced in dealing with divine beasts and whatnot.
âHubby, Iâll be handing you this grand mission~ Mwah~â
Su Rui was speechless.
The sun was bright on the second day.
The moment Su Wu woke up, she instinctively patted her bed. Hm? Empty?
She suddenly sat up, his gaze cold. Whereâs Little White?
Little White was gluttonous and a pervert. Heâd always try to snuggle in Su Wuâs arms. Of course, he was great at doing this in the night. In the beginning, Su Wu wasnât used to someone being by her side. But Little White was chubby and fluffy. After a while, she got used to waking up to feeling a living thing on the bed. But Little White wasnât here today?
âLittle White? Little White!â
Su Wu jumped out of bed and shouted. Someone immediately responded crisply outside, âYoung miss, master carried Little White away.â
Uh.
Elder Brother ?
Su Wu froze. Ever since Su Zhan came back, they havenât officially chatted. Su Wu was afraid that Su Zhan might be able to tell she was fake so she naturally spent her days idle. Seeing that Su Zhan didnât come to look for her, she didnât bother to meet her so-called Elder Brother either.
When the servants in the courtyard saw that Su Zhan was back, they changed their attitude towards Su Wu completely.
But speaking of, why did her Elder Brother carry Little White away?
Su Wu thought about it, still worried for Little White. As a result, she changed her clothes and hastily arrived at Su Zhanâs courtyard. Before going inside, she saw the smoke in the courtyard. Early in the morning, Su Liang had actually started a fire to roast meat.
Wait, roast meat?
Su Wu glanced at the suspicious thing on the rack and couldnât help but colden her expression. âSu Liang, what are you roasting?â
âMagical beastsâ meat. Master wants some. Young miss, do you want to try too?â
Su Liang replied without even looking at Su Wu. Speaking of, roasting meat required considerate skills. He had roasted quite a bit of magical beastsâ meat in the division. The more advanced the magical beasts were, their meat would be more tasty and chewy. The spiritual influence within the meat was also great~
Magical beast?
âIs it Little White? Did Elder Brother have you roast Little White?â
Hearing Su Liangâs words, Su Wu immediately rushed over and fisted Su Liangâs collar, a murderous glint in her large, round eyes.
Su Liang was at a loss for words.
What the heck is Little White? Was it the dog that master carried back this morning?
âWhatâs all the noise about this early morning?â
At this time, the door to Su Zhanâs room was opened. Su Rui clad in black carried Little White out of the door with a cold look.
âMaster, sob, Master, save me~â
Glancing at Su Rui, Su Liang couldnât help but start crying. Eldest miss suddenly became terrifying. Master, quickly come and save me~
Su Wu saw the gentle Little White in Su Ruiâs arms and she couldnât help but sigh in relief. âElder Brother, Little Whiteâs here ah. Iâm here for him.â
âHm?â
Su Rui glanced at her carelessly. âSu Wu, I heard from Su Wan that you can summon a double-edged sword now? Youâre considered a beginner summoner. Elder brother will train you well in the future. This low-level magical beast isnât suitable for you. Elder brother has found an even better one for you. When the time comes, Iâll help you summon it using my spiritual power and help you guys complete the contract too. No one will dare to look down on you within the Su Family anymore.â
Su Wu was speechless.
Thank you so much~
âElder brother, I, I really like Little White. I donât want any other summoning magical beasts. I just want that.â
Hearing Su Ruiâs words, Su Wuâs gaze flickered and immediately pretended that she didnât want part from Little White.
The assassinâs acting skills were quite good. At the very least, he hadnât seen through anything. Seeing that Su Wu was reluctant to part from Little White, Su Riu immediately said angrily, âGirl, why donât you understand your elder brotherâs painstaking effort? Youâre willing to be bullied by others? How can my sister be so bulliable? Youâre too soft-hearted! What do you need such a useless magical beast for? Iâm killing it now!â
As he said this, Su Rui started to conjure spiritual power within his palm. Seeing that he was about to summon the Purple Ming Sword, Su Wu immediately became nervous. She knew that she wasnât Su Zhanâs match nor did she dare to reveal her hidden card. Therefore, she could only act weak right now.
âElder brother, donât! Elder brother, I know Iâm wrong!â
Su Wu stopped Su Ruiâs action. âIâll listen to my elder brother. Please donât hurt Little White. Although heâs useless, I like him a lot. Elder brother, youâre the best. Just leave him with me, okay? Heâll be my pet.â
âYouâre going to forget your mission if I give him back to you. I canât right now. When you advance to a medium summoner, come and talk to me then.â
As he said this, Su Rui turned around coldly and carried Little White back to his room.
Seeing how determined her elder brother was, Su Wu stayed confused in the courtyard for a bit. She recalled how she was already a grade eight summoner. Though she still needed some time in order to get to grade five summoner, it wasnât too difficult.
Plus, Su Zhan was providing resources for her. Wouldnât it be easy for her to level up now?
She pondered over this before deciding to listen to Su Rui. She turned and left his courtyard.
After Su Wu left, Su Rui and Su Wan placed Little White on the table. General Su knitted his brows. âLeaving him alive will be trouble for us in the future too. Wife, why donât we roast and eat him? Su Liang is great at roasting meat.â
Before Su Wan could answer, Little White on the table immediately widened his eyes and started speaking human language, âYou, you canât kill me. Do you guys know who I am?â
âWho are you?â
Su Wan bent over and touched Little Whiteâs little head with her finger. âCould it be that youâre a divine beast that has been sealed? Are you saying that you know the ancient mnemonic chant that had died out a long time ago?â
Little White was at a loss for words.
How did you know?
Little White immediately glanced at them in alarm. âJust who are you? How do you know this divine beastâs identity?â
âCough.â
Su Wan couldnât resist the urge to pat Little Whiteâs head. âYou really think youâre a divine beast? You mustâve listened to too many wanderersâ short stories. Nevermind that, seeing that youâre quite cute, we can leave you here to guard the door for us. Weâll be making the best use of everything then.â
Little White was speechless.
As a grand divine beast, you want me to guard the door like a dog?
âI refuse, Iâm not a dog.â
A certain divine beast thought that they had hurt his dignity. Even his tone became a bit unhappy.
âRight, youâre not a dog. Youâre just a low-level beast that looks really similar to a dog.â
Su Wan couldnât help but strike, âSigh, youâre quite exotic too. You actually can talk. There arenât that many beasts that can talk. I wonder what species you are. Why donât we dissect and take a look?â
âHey, donât act recklessly! I, IâŠwill go guard the door, okay?â
A certain divine beast was also speechless. Now that he has fallen, everyone could bully him!
My spiritual power is sealed. Hmph. When Su Wu becomes a grade five summoner, she could use her spiritual power to remove the first layer of seal on me. By then, Iâll teach you guys a lesson~
