Chapter 118 My new bride is a bit shy Part 2
Luther shrugged his shoulders innocently and spoke in a matter of fact manner.
Did he really need to tease me at every possible opportunity? Su Lin frowned at the smirking eye candy standing in front of her.
The truth was that everyone decided to go through whatever was waiting for them together.
So, why not give Su Lin their trust? She hasn't let them down in the past. So maybe there was hope after all?
Su Lin looked at them all with a big bright smile on her face.
She was never really worried about beating those chumps from the Gates of Hell or whatever. She just didn't want to stand alone at the top this time around...
Thank heavens, these idiots returned!
Su Lin did not waste any more time and immediately doled out instructions to everyone.
Time was of the essence here!
Rabbit said he had picked up murmurs in the underworld about the movement of the Ninth Gate.
"Only murmurs?" Su Lin raised her eyebrows.
But these guys freaked out so much, that they uprooted all their stuff and was ready to move overnight?
"When it comes to the Gates of Hell, you have to act that fast." Luther interrupted, clearly anticipating Su Lin's next question. "Else there will be nothing left."
"They are a hurricane leaving nothing in their wake." Squirrel reckoned.
The group was busily discussing their next course of action.
Su Lin nodded. One thing was clear. They did not have enough time.
But, for someone with her experience and prowess in cultivation, this did not matter much.
"Ok. This is what we are going to do. There are seven of us here, excluding the Mayor. Currently, let us leave him out of this since he is busy with the city's functional duties."
"Including me, three others will use the resources for now, and the other three will help in gathering the cultivation resources."
"This way we can ensure that at least some of us will be powerful enough to fight one on one against the men they send."
Hearing Su Lin's detailed plan, everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement.
They were like small fledging kids in the kindergarten at the mercy of their harsh homeroom teacher.
Su Lin kept throwing around the word cultivation, but none of them had any idea about it.
Discussing for a while, it was decided that Luther, Monkey, and Squirrel would cultivate, for now, taking the priority.
This was where she had cultivated her pitiful Stage 1 Soul core and this was where she had met Luther for the first time.
And there was still a lot more energy left in the higher ranges when she had left.
Back then, she didn't know that this devilishly handsome stubborn man was going to stick to her like a glue for a lifetime...
Su Lin gently chuckled, with a slight blush creeping up her cheeks. Within a short few months, so many things had changed...
But suddenly, she remembered something and abruptly asked, "Who were the people that were hunting you guys back then?"
"Oh, that was not anyone from the Ninth Gate. Just some other random organization, almost at the same level as us."
"We first misunderstood them for the Ninth Gate forces, but just recently we discovered that they were in fact not from any powerful group." Luther brushed it off.
"Heh... Just how many people did you guys piss off?" Su Lin chuckled and heaved a huge sigh of relief.
Now that there was a significant competition to get to whatever small amounts of spiritual energy that earth had, she had to get there before the others could find it.
"Sister-in-law... Ahem... I mean master... We are not selling cabbages, we are in the fighting and killing business."
Monkey scratched his head, immediately regretting the sarcastic remark he had made.
Su Lin gave him a look but ultimately ignored the mouthing off.
After all, they were all going to curse her infinitely more in the next couple of weeks.
Heh... Cultivation was not a joke.
It was a cruel pain-staking process, that required an insanely strong will power and enormous pain tolerance.
Su Lin talked about a few more details with the group, like accessing the higher ranges using a private helicopter, and the current safety of the region for temporary shut off meditation and so on.
And after that, everything happened very quickly.
Luther called off all the assassins working under their organization.
But to make sure such a large movement is sufficiently unnoticed, he staggered all their return dates.
Many of these people have never even seen Luther.
Their organization had complex layers, with only a few trustworthy members handling the group directly under them.
But this was war, and they needed everybody back.
Luther strategically distributed their forces, some to Hangzhou city, and the rest divided among the neighboring cities.
Leaving the other brothers to take care of the rest of the situation, the four of them immediately left for the Kawa Karpo mountains.
During their travel, Su Lin briefly outlined the basics of what they were about to do.
She could see that all three of them had several questions for her, but Su Lin quickly pursed her lips with a finger on it.
"Anything not related to cultivation, gathering the energy, and trying to circulate in the body, we can talk about later."
"And probably, only Luther and I will be able to cultivate for now, since we need a catalyst for the body to be able to recognize and accept this new energy."
"When I reach a higher realm, I can open your energy points in the body, which will help you feel and embrace the free-flowing energy currents."
Just as Su Lin was about to start explaining the basics seriously, Monkey cautiously spoke, "Master, I do have a cultivation related question".
