Chapter 238: Second Grandma's Authority!
============================================================

Watch as Li Shiyao stepped outside, glancing left and right, furtively surveying her surroundings.

Her innocent little face relaxed into a sigh of relief once she confirmed no one was watching, slowly filling with melancholy and sorrow.

It was in this very moment that Dongfang Jue realized why Su Cheng had been so furious!

When Li Shiyu didn't smile, her cold expression carried a natural air of pitiful, slight grievance. Anyone who saw her would feel a surge of pity and affection.

Inside the Main Hall of Lingxian Hall, Yulan was also startled by Su Cheng's appearance!

"Chengcheng? What happened?"

Seeing the tea table reduced to splinters piled against the wall, it was clear Su Cheng had already taken out his frustration on something.

It was the first time Yu Lan had ever seen Su Cheng like this. He sat on a chair littered with wood splinters and porcelain shards, his reddened knuckles still stained with blood.

The lit cigarette was merely wedged between his fingers, never even raised to his lips, his teeth clenched so hard they creaked.

"Yu Lan, go see what's wrong with Shi Yao."

"Mm, don't worry. The Second Young Miss will be fine. Don't fret too much…"

"Go check on Shiyao first. I'm fine."

Yu Lan said no more. She understood that tone—it was the best attitude Su Cheng could muster.

Truthfully, Yu Lan couldn't understand it either. He'd been perfectly fine this morning!

How could she suddenly become like this!

The moment Yu Lan stepped through the door, she heard the sound of something else shattering inside the main hall…

Frankly, Yulan was getting a bit annoyed. Who the hell was it?

Who dared provoke the Second Young Miss!

She had just stepped outside when she spotted Dongfang Jue and Su Muchan. The three of them pooled their current clues, but after careful consideration, Yu Lan decided not to let the two precious ones into the Main Hall to avoid frightening them. She simply told them Su Cheng was busy.

Regardless, Shiyao's situation clearly took priority.

"Third Young Miss, Miss Muchan, please rest assured. Yu Lan will go see…"

Before he could finish speaking!

A dark mist suddenly materialized in the courtyard!

Before the figure appeared, the voice boomed!

"Su Cheng, get out here!"

A pair of small hands tore through the air! A pink little head poked out from the black mist—none other than…

The Flower-Seeking Immortal!

An ice-blue military uniform jacket draped over her shoulders, lined with a bear-print undershirt. Below, a red-and-black pleated skirt. Long socks tucked into combat boots. The very picture of a violent loli!

That expression alone, tinged with hostility, made it clear she wasn't here to pay a visit!

Before anyone could speak, a thunderous crack split the air, instantly tearing open a gap in Lingxian Hall's barrier!

A flurry of voices echoed through the air!

"Spatial anchor point acquired. Requesting transmission…"

"This is the Mansion. Spatial suppression activated. Target location failed. Expanding search range."

"Sword Dragon acknowledged. Shattered Blade has reached target coordinates. Catastrophe acknowledged. Yu Meng en route to designated location…"

"Three hostile units locked. Lack over-the-horizon strike capability, lack anti-army combat capability, possess small-scale spatial combat capability…"

This exchange continued for a full minute—this was Lord Gu Ai's "drawing of the sword"!

"Dongfang Jue, Xiao Ai has one question: Where is Li Shiyao?"

Before the words were even finished, thirteen Valkyries materialized, crashing like meteors into the small courtyard of Su City!

Each clad in armor, wielding various ink-black divine weapons, and wearing distinct demonic masks, they knelt on one knee behind the Flower-Seeking Immortal Lord like gods of slaughter.

But Second Grandma's crew was far more formidable than that. Xiang Sister and Liu Sister, whom she'd only met once, were way more badass than Li Shiyao ever imagined!

How formidable?

At least ten Kras!

Yu Lan was completely dumbfounded, but she knew one thing for certain: Su Cheng had just left, and she had no idea where he'd gone!

She could only think of two possibilities!

First, Su Cheng had sensed someone was coming and fled!

The second was that these two groups had waited for Su Cheng to leave before arriving!

But both scenarios seemed rather unrealistic!

You mean Su Cheng abandoned his disciple and fled? Yulan didn't buy it!

But you're saying the Immortal Sovereign would care about Su Cheng's reputation? Yulan finds that equally hard to believe!

He didn't even care about Lingxian Hall's barrier!

One tore through space with bare hands!

This is Li Shiyao's younger sister Liu, and Li Shiyao also has an older sister Xiang!

And Sister Xiang is even more formidable!

The moment Yulan heard the Flower-Seeking Immortal finish speaking, she realized the sky had turned pitch black!

Looking up, a colossal sword as vast as a mountain, darkening the sky, hovered directly above the Lingxian Hall!

Truth be told, even Ye Qinghan's Demon-Sealing Stele seemed rather cute in comparison to this ice sword…

The area the Fallen Immortal Ruler could cover was but a mere tip of this iceberg…

The sky had turned pitch black!

A woman descended from the heavens, landing beside Gu Ai. She was breathtakingly beautiful!

Her beauty was truly peerless!

None other than Li Shiyao's fragrant sister, the Jade-Stealing, Fragrance-Thieving Immortal Sovereign!

The Immortal Sovereign wore a white imperial robe, her snow-white hair cascading like a waterfall. Her eyes held no emotion, gazing down upon all beings like a deity!

Her crimson lips parted slightly, and her voice, like a divine decree, pierced straight into the mind!

"Where is Li Shiyu?"

As she spoke, her form leaned back, revealing the colossal throne that materialized in an instant as she shifted.

That mountain-like colossal ice sword, resembling the Fox Demon Empress's chariot, was parked beside it!

Truth be told, Yulan recalled what Su Chengceng had once told her!

Don't mess with that pink-haired girl who looks all cute and innocent. But this pink-haired loli? She wasn't looking cute or innocent at all right now!

Su Muchan recalled being bullied by this big fox that day, yet anger didn't stir within her now…

She had also come to realize the vast gap between herself and the Immortal Sovereign…

"Flower-Seeking Immortal, what's this?" The big fox glanced sideways at Xiao Ai, feigning ignorance.

"Just wandering around, see if I can catch that ditch-dweller Su Cheng."

"Hmph, the Immortal Lord is in quite the mood." As the fox spoke, it ceased hiding its power!

No attack was launched, merely the concealment dropped—and instantly, the divine pressure befitting the God-Slaying King swept across the Nine Provinces!

"But what brings the Jade-Stealing, Fragrance-Thieving Immortal here? Could it be nostalgia?"

"To visit my foster sister."

"Heh heh, Sister sure is in a playful mood~"

As if two colossal auras were colliding, Gu Ai also released the restraints on her power!

Do not forget—Lord Gu Ai is also a Godslayer King!

Moreover, Lord Gu Ai now wields three authorities, making him theoretically the most powerful Godslayer King!

The gale lashed like razor-sharp blades, skin stinging as if being sliced.

Dark clouds gathered thickly, lightning darting through the mist, yet not a single clap of thunder could be heard. Whether it was being blocked or the thunder itself retreating three steps before the two Immortal Lords remained unknown!

Under the spatial suppression, half the mountain plunged into autumn. Life drained away as leaves turned yellow and fell, forced to bow before the two Immortal Lords!

Beneath the suspended ice sword, the other half of the mountain plunged into winter. Three feet of ice froze over, blanketed in pristine snow.

"Su Muchan, speak! Where is Li Shiyu?"

"Dongfang Jue, speak! Where is Li Shiyao?"

Both Immortal Lords demanded simultaneously. Though Li Shiyu had only met each of them once, these two were clearly seasoned practitioners of the Dao!

Sensing Li Shiyu's injury, they didn't hesitate. Following the spatial coordinates, they arrived in the blink of an eye!

She was their beloved family, their sister!

"Huh? Sister Xiang, Sister Liu, why are you here?"
