Chapter 546: The aloof gatekeeper of Ta Lo, Ying Li! (Second update, please subscribe!)

Human joys and sorrows are not the same; the White Queen does not know her full history, feeling only a bit of regret, not quite reaching the level of lingering resentment.

However, her evaluation of Wenwu has dropped by several levels.

She had originally thought that Wenwu, who had fought for a thousand years and conquered various lands, was a man of ambition and strength, and since he was also Chinese like Su Quan, she had looked upon him with a bit more regard.

When other factions wanted the Super Soldier Serum, she hadn't even shown her face.

When Wenwu came, she even met with him, and even though Wenwu's attitude wasn't great and he used the Ten Rings to threaten her subtly, she didn't immediately turn hostile.

But now, she feels that Wenwu is just so-so; he only looks like a big shot by relying on the power of the Ten Rings.

Without the Ten Rings, he couldn't even protect the safety of his own wife!

"When are we going to Ta Lo?" the White Queen asked.

"I will go to Ta Lo myself; you stay behind and take charge of Melina and the follow-up matters regarding the Red Room."

Su Quan told the White Queen his arrangements for the Red Room.

The White Queen gladly accepted the arrangement.

It's just waiting for Melina and the others to complete their mission, protecting their safe withdrawal, and using her psychic abilities to control Dreykov when they see him.

So easy!

The next day.

Brilliant sunlight shone in from the window of the master bedroom, a slanted ray of light filled with sweet warmth.

The sun baked her bones until they felt soft. The White Queen, having spent the whole night taking a 'Man and Nature' class with Su Quan, broke free from the shackles of the quilt, stood up, stretched, and leaned against the window, gazing into the distance in a daze.

The deepest part of the dark and damp is the cradle that nurtures life—Man and Nature!

Half an hour ago, Su Quan went to Ta Lo.

According to him, completely mastering Ta Lo might take some time; after she finishes handling the Red Room business, she can contact him to return to the original timeline first.

She could also move freely, do some things she likes, and return together after he finishes.

The White Queen doesn't plan to return early by herself, because the return point in time is consistent; even if she returns a few months early now, after returning to the original timeline, it would still be one right after the other.

It's rare to travel through time, and with Su Quan as a ready-made example, she also wants to do something!

For example, laying out plans for Madripoor in advance, or recruiting a few talents useful for the development of the Quandou Society.

Thinking is doing!

The White Queen turned to wash up, and before long, having changed her clothes, she went directly to find Melina to discuss matters.

The Red Room is already in the bag; it would be a waste not to use this resource!

Dreykov: What do you mean it's in your bag? The Red Room is mine, mine!

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch!

Leaving aside how the White Queen and Melina scout for talent and lay out plans in advance, let's talk about Su Quan, who has arrived at the entrance to Ta Lo.

The entrance to Ta Lo is in the depths of a bamboo forest. From afar, the bamboo forest is as green as a flawless emerald; up close, it looks like a green barrier.

A breeze blows by, rustling, and the bamboo forest seems to dance with the wind, graceful and charming!

Su Quan has never seen such a dense bamboo forest in his life. Looking down at them from the air, it's like a large piece of jade embedded in the land that has nurtured countless Chinese children.

Yes, this bamboo forest is in China, right in the hometown of Ji Ying, the mother of Quake, Daisy Johnson!

The bamboo forest is beautiful, but also dangerous, because it 'eats people'!

It is like a living thing, capable of moving freely, or rather, like a living bamboo forest maze.

If you don't know the exact route, once you enter, you will likely be swallowed by the bamboo forest.

Su Quan doesn't know the exact route, nor does he intend to force his way through the bamboo forest maze.

"Hum!"

Releasing his psychic abilities, he quickly locked onto the position of the gatekeeper of the Ta Lo entrance deep in the bamboo forest.

At the same time, he also learned her name.

Ying Li!

"Whoosh—"

Su Quan teleported and arrived deep in the bamboo forest, appearing before the stunned and surprised Ying Li.

Ying Li wore a bamboo hat and a bamboo veil; her pitch-black eyes revealed surprise and confidence, and a green dress highlighted her slim and well-proportioned figure.

At first glance, she looked like a swordswoman who had walked out of ancient times.

Ethereal and fairy-like!

Beside a murmuring stream, Ying Li stood on a mountain rock, hands behind her back, posture upright, looking every bit the mysterious master.

Although Su Quan's appearance was strange, Ying Li was even more confident in her own strength.

In all the years she has guarded this place, countless people like him have sought Ta Lo, yet not one has been able to defeat her and enter Ta Lo.

"Our village does not welcome you!"

Ying Li directly issued an eviction order; go back where you came from, you cannot enter Ta Lo!

Su Quan smiled: "So blunt? Don't you want to know who I am?"

Ying Li's tone was calm, with no interest: "I don't care who you are, leave, don't look for trouble."

So cold!

It makes sense; Ying Li grew up in Ta Lo and has had very little contact with the outside world. Her mission is to stop outsiders from entering Ta Lo. As a gatekeeper, she naturally wouldn't treat those who want to enter Ta Lo gently.

Aloofness is the attitude she should have.

For someone like her, only by showing powerful strength can one make her look at them differently and break through her heart.

……………………

If just any random person could woo her away, she wouldn't have been able to become the gatekeeper of Ta Lo!

So, enough talk, let's fight!

Su Quan didn't use any superpowers or magic, lest she feel unconvinced after losing!

He bent his waist, took a horse stance, and set his hands in a front-and-back posture.

Kung fu, I am also proficient in it!

Ying Li was already used to the behavior of these people who wanted to enter Ta Lo and "wouldn't turn back until they hit the south wall." Without a fight, they wouldn't leave obediently.

Watching Su Quan take his stance, Ying Li shook her head imperceptibly, seemingly with disdain.

"Just this much skill?"

Su Quan chuckled, lunged forward, leaped, crossed the mountain rocks of several meters, arrived before Ying Li, and threw a punch.

Ying Li's figure was light, dodging like a startled swan, her toes tapping lightly on a nearby tree, turning, and landing gracefully.

The two of them had swapped positions.

Su Quan was on the mountain rock, and Ying Li was by the stream.

"Ding!"
