Chapter 218 The Education of Love
"Ah Yao!?" Mo Yuanling's clone turned his head and looked over, a look of surprise and joy appearing in his eyes. He quickly put down his teacup and stood up to greet her. "Welcome back. Come in and sit down for a while."
Su Yao looked at her brother, stunned for a moment before reacting, then smiled and stepped into the house: "I'm exhausted from running back from the Demon Realm, did you miss me, brother?"
"Of course, Ayao, would you like to tell me about your experiences in the Demon Realm?" Mo Yuanling replied with a smile, controlling her clone.
Su Yao followed back to the table: "Okay, I'll have some water to quench my thirst first."
She also poured a cup for her brother and pushed it towards him, then drank hers in one gulp. After finishing, she complained, "Brother, next time prepare a pot of cooled boiled water. I can't stand the bitterness of this tea."
The clone shook his head and smiled, not wanting to waste his sister's kindness, he picked up the teacup: "Okay, I'll remember that."
Mo Yuanling watched helplessly as his clone suddenly became paralyzed and collapsed to the ground with a thud.
Su Yao calmly put down her teacup, leaned over and grabbed the clone's collar. With his back to the light from outside, a shadow naturally fell over his face. Her scrutinizing and sharp gaze swept over him: "You dare to impersonate my brother? Tell me! Where is my brother!?"
The clone was forced to look up, its face full of confusion.
Demon Abyss Spirit: ...You bastard! You actually poisoned the teapot!!!
You think you can get away with not refusing because you need to maintain a good older brother image?
Seeing that the counterfeit product remained silent, Su Yao narrowed her eyes, tied the person up, locked the door, and took out dozens of poison bottles from her storage ring, preparing to intimidate and torture the person to extract a confession.
She seemed to be talking to herself: "It's rare to have someone stumble upon this. Maybe we should try the new drug and the combination drug? This looks like bone-dissolving liquid..."
Demon Abyss Spirit: ...
Haha, it thinks this clone will soon be tormented and scattered.
But you still have to struggle.
The clone, incredulous, angry, and heartbroken, demanded, "A-Yao! What are you doing?! I'm your own brother!"
Seeing that this guy was being stubborn, Su Yao closed her eyes and said, "First of all, my brother is definitely as good-looking as me. Even if he grew up to be ugly, he wouldn't be like you."
The demonic abyss was stunned, its spirit and mind shaken.
Is its figure-sculpting skill really that bad...?
“Secondly,” Su Yao pondered, stroking her chin, “Although my brother is easy to talk to, his position as an elder brother cannot be challenged. If I were to poison him, grab his collar, or tie him up with a rope, he…”
Although her memories of this world seem to be a bit off, Su Yao still clearly remembers her daily interactions with Su Yu before she came to this world.
So she nodded with emotion and certainty: "He will give me a loving education and make me understand what it means to respect elders and juniors."
The clone's expression was blank.
Demon Abyss Spirit silently collapsed: ...Ahhh, Su, Yu!!
How did you teach your sister? The script is completely different from the one she got here!
Shouldn't you be a gentle and kind older brother?
Oh, it seems it has already discovered that he is essentially a bastard and a madman. Well, that's fine then. This is in line with the spirit and style of the demon race.
It truly deserves to be the pride of the demon realm.
It's normal for characters to change as the world evolves; real people are beyond our control.
This shows that their world upgrade process is very successful, which is a good thing.
Mo Yuanling convinced herself to calm down and stubbornly continue performing.
"Is that so? But if I'm not your brother, then who is?"
Su Yao raised an eyebrow and immediately sprinkled a bottle of itching powder on the fake item: "Are you provoking me?"
Demon Abyss Spirit: ...Great, this is a spirit clone, so it can block the senses.
But it's not a good time to stay here any longer.
Look how lively the main characters in their world are, and the process of upgrading is obviously very dynamic!
It probably doesn't need to worry about it much; it can just wait for these guys to go to Su Yu.
Clone: "Anyway, I am your brother. Ah Yao, you should calm down for now. See you later."
After saying this, Mo Yuanling decisively disbanded his clone. Before disbanding the clone, he made sure it broke free of the ropes to demonstrate its strength. Then, the clone disappeared in a cloud of black mist.
Only Su Yao, with a cold and aloof expression, remained in the room.
Su Yao felt suffocated.
Where's her brother? Where's her brother?!
No! Not only her brother, but others are missing too!
Su Yao had a flash of inspiration, and a word appeared out of thin air in her mind.
Little lotus, flower!
She's going to find the charlatan—oops, master—of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion!
In the lower spirit realm, more than ten days later, Su Yu received information about the white owl.
After reading it, he fell silent involuntarily.
This kid... is really unlucky.
The buyer seems to want to experiment on people with special talents to improve their own talents, but doesn't dare to target children from respectable families. So, they want to buy slaves as cheap materials, hoping to make a fortune if they find a hidden gem.
The white owl had successfully poisoned the buyer and led the escape two days ago, but it was kidnapped on the way.
By the time the people from the ghost market followed the clues to the crime scene, the signs of the struggle had been mostly wiped away.
The conclusion that the person was kidnapped was deduced by the team leader based on experience and the traces of the sudden break. The accuracy and credibility of the deduction were very high, and there were also additional deductions about the number of kidnappers and their cultivation levels.
A black cat, which had been listless for some reason, was perched on Su Yu's left shoulder, while a small system orb floated on her right shoulder.
Xiaoqi asked in a low voice:
After reading the intelligence, Su Yu found the list of forces in the lower spirit realm and looked it over: "Hmm... how about hosting a banquet?"
Demon Abyss Spirit asked slowly:
Su Yu smiled and picked up a pen to circle the names of the factions on the list: "Don't say that, it's just a friendly exchange."
The black cat sneered; its trust in the Su siblings had dropped to zero.
These are two liars!
Su Yu ignored him completely, and after efficiently marking the names, she went to give instructions to Captain Liao.
The Ghost Market invited the royal families of the three major countries and various large aristocratic families to participate in an exchange meeting to discuss cooperation and preferential strategies in trade and transportation, so as to promote smooth trade and prosperity.
Spread a mix of true and false information as a way to generate buzz.
Su Yu's review of the accounts during his stay in the Ghost Market over the past few days was not in vain. There are many countries in the Lower Spirit Realm, and some large families even have their own territories. Therefore, the expenses for clearing checkpoints when transporting goods here are not only high but also come with a variety of charges.
Even if the Ghost Market is rich, it can't afford to waste money like this. It's like they're being ripped off for every little thing they pass through. Su Yu almost felt suffocated and couldn't breathe.
It was a mistake to not consider the issue of the lower spirit world when reforming the Ghost Market!
It would be good to take this opportunity to solve the problem.
Those whose names were circled were invited, and those whose names were not circled were not invited.
Based on the intelligence, at least two of the kidnappers are at the Golden Core stage. The fact that they were dispatched to kidnap a child suggests that the force that took the White Owl is likely a medium to large-sized power.
I just don't know what their purpose was in kidnapping people.
Su Yu smiled as she looked at the planned eighteen slots, the ten slots that were only intended to be distributed, and the list of thirty-seven forces that could be considered medium-sized or larger.
The Ghost Market is inviting medium-to-large-sized entities to join its money-making projects. Who wasn't invited, and who isn't recognized as a medium-to-large-sized entity?
If you want more spots, you'll have to pay an entrance fee to the ghost market.
Su Yu looked at the plan and pondered for a moment, but still couldn't bear to sacrifice her reputation.
Let's spread the rumor that Director Liao likes girls with special talents.
The Ghost Lord will increase his bonus.
