Chu Li's martial arts had improved tremendously. He had refined the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture and inner force cultivation in Yinyang Cave. Although the scripture was still not as good as Monk Zhi Shan's, his inner energy was not inferior to his.
However, the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was mysterious and unpredictable. Even if his inner energy was equal, he was no match for him.
This time on the battlefield, his Nature Restoration Manifestation had improved tremendously. Even without the help of the Omniscient Mirror, he could still predict Monk Zhi Shan's thoughts and attack before he could.
Monk Zhi Shan felt restrained as if all his moves were seen through by his opponent. Zhao Dahe was getting stronger and stronger. If this went on, he could really kill him.
His killing intent surged and he suddenly appeared beside Chu Li, wanting to ambush him.
As soon as he appeared, three flying blades were already waiting in front of him, sealing off all his escape routes. He could block one with his right hand and dodge another with his body movement technique, but he could not dodge the other flying blade no matter what.
If his left hand was not injured, he could use the Sun Chakram to block the blade. However, his left wrist was injured and he could not wield the Sun Chakram.
He suddenly extended his left palm to block the flying blade. His inner energy circulated in his left palm.
"Tss!" The flying blade pierced through Monk Zhi Shan's left palm. His inner energy could not stop it, so it shot toward his left shoulder.
Although his left palm could not block the flying blade, it slowed it down a little. It was at this moment that he managed to avoid being stabbed in the heart.
Monk Zhi Shan's expression did not change. The Sun Chakram in his right palm shot out a white light.
Chu Li disappeared just in time to avoid the white light. The next moment, he appeared behind the Hai Cang Mountain elder. He pressed his right palm down and swung a blade with his left hand.
The Royal Blade Palace elder raised his blade to help.
"Ding …" Chu Li's palm was blocked by the blade and let out a clear ringing sound.
The Royal Blade Palace elder's expression changed. He did not expect Chu Li's inner energy to be so pure and his palm energy to be so strong.
"Bang!" The blade hit the Hai Cang Mountain elder's back and he staggered.
Chu Li's flying blade arrived just in time.
The Hai Cang Mountain elder had not stabilized himself and could not dodge. The flying blade pierced his back and exited his chest, causing blood to spurt out.
The Hai Cang Mountain elder did not turn to look. He sped up and ran more than ten meters in an arc. when he turned to look again, Chu Li was already engaged in battle with the Royal Blade Palace elder.
At this time, the soldiers on the city wall hurried to call for the martial arts masters.
Martial arts masters would almost never go up to the city walls. They had a weak advantage, and a single arrow could take their lives. That would be a real injustice.
Monk Zhi Shan shot out a ray of white light with his solar chakram. Chu Li evaded it as soon as he disappeared, and the white light shot toward the elder from Royal Blade Palace who was behind him.
The elder from Royal Blade Palace hurriedly twisted his body to evade the attack. However, Chu Li appeared behind him and shot out flying blades from both hands.
"Chi chi!" The old man from the Royal Blade Palace only managed to dodge one of the sabers before his right shoulder was pierced by the flying saber.
"Let's go!" He shouted. He turned around and ran with the Hai Cang Mountain elder.
They had initially thought that the three of them would be able to kill Chu Li and avenge Flying Cloud Cavalry's Zhu Wuji if they worked together. However, they did not expect Chu Li to be so difficult to deal with.
Monk Zhi Shan's face darkened. His usual calm and carefree demeanor was nowhere to be seen. He turned around and left.
Chu Li scoffed and appeared beside him in a flash. Both his blades shot out at the same time.
Monk Zhi Shan shifted his body horizontally and pressed his palms together. He wore a faint smile on his face. "Almsgiver Zhao's martial arts has improved tremendously. Congratulations."
Monk Zhi Shan shifted his body horizontally and barely avoided the two blades. Then, he vanished without a trace.
Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror had seen through his figure. Monk Zhi Shan had vanished like a gust of wind. His speed had suddenly increased tremendously as he had activated his secret skill.
He scoffed coldly. He was going to avenge Li Ruolan today by killing Monk Zhi Shan!
Just as he was about to activate his secret skill to chase after Monk Zhi Shan, he noticed that two monks had appeared not far away from Monk Zhi Shan with their palms pressed together.
They were surrounded by a strange aura that blocked Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror's prying eyes. Their cultivation levels were only slightly lower than Monk Zhi Shan's, but they were all rare martial arts masters.
Chu Li sighed helplessly. He had lost his chance!
He would have to wait until the future to take revenge. His cultivation level was not high enough yet. If his cultivation level was high enough, it would be a piece of cake for him to kill Monk Zhi Shan. He would not be able to escape then!
"Bravo!" The martial arts masters who had rushed up the city wall cheered loudly.
This was the first time they had seen Monk Zhi Shan at a disadvantage.
"Bravo!" The soldiers cheered as well.
Chu Li had single-handedly defeated Monk Zhi Shan and the other two and forced them to flee in panic. They felt exhilarated and elated at the same time.
Chu Li seemed to have heard the crowd cheering as he gave them a fist salute. Then, he sped up and soon arrived at the eastern gate.
"General?" Jiang Jinfu turned to look at Yang Ping and asked in a low voice, "Should we open the gate?"
It was wartime and the gate should not be opened at will to avoid falling into the enemy's trap. It was easy to open the gate but difficult to close it. Therefore, it was understandable that they did not open the gate. No one could say anything wrong.
Yang Ping stared at Chu Li's figure.
The dusk was getting darker and Chu Li's figure looked particularly lonely in the twilight.
"… Open the gate and bring him here!" Yang Ping scoffed.
Jiang Jinfu stared at Chu Li. He felt indignant but did not show it. "Yes, I'll order the gate to be opened immediately!"
Yang Ping glanced at him. "Don't mess around at a time like this!"
He knew what his trusted scribe was thinking. He was afraid that Jiang Jinfu would mess around at this juncture and lose the trust of the people.
"Yes." Jiang Jinfu quickly nodded.
Yang Ping took out a military order from his sleeve.
Jiang Jinfu took the military order with both hands and hurriedly looked for the gate officer to open the eastern gate.
By the time the eastern gate creaked open, Chu Li had already arrived.
The soldiers and martial arts masters on the city wall stared at him. They felt that his ugly appearance made him look particularly heroic.
Chu Li saw the bloodstains around him and knew that the siege had begun. His expression became more serious. He looked up at the people on the city wall and fist saluted. He strode through the gate and said to Jiang Jinfu, "I want to see the general!"
Jiang Jinfu said coldly, "Come with me!"
The two of them walked along the main street in silence.
Chu Li felt that something was wrong in the city. His inner energy had been suppressed again. Martial arts masters no longer had an advantage in the city and were only slightly stronger than ordinary people.
The atmosphere in the city was oppressive. The main street was bleak and the surrounding shops were closed. The bustling city had completely disappeared.
"Rumble …" The ground shook.
Amidst the flying dust, a group of cavalrymen rushed forward like a gust of wind.
"Neigh …" The horses neighed incessantly as eleven fine horses reared up.
The ten knights sat firmly on their horses, each of them wearing a cold expression.
The leading cavalryman fist saluted. "Are you Zhao Dahe from the Soaring Eagle Cavalry's Sharp Vigor Battalion?"
Chu Li fist saluted. "Yes, I am."
"The Grand General wants to see you. Come with me!" the cavalryman said.
Chu Li said, "Allow me to greet the general first, then the Grand General."
The cavalryman shook his head. "The Grand General wants to see you soon. It won't be too late to meet General Yang when you're back. Let's go!"
One of the cavalrymen dismounted and pulled an empty fine horse over. He stuffed the reins into Chu Li's hands. "The Grand General wants to see you. Hurry up!"
Chu Li looked at Jiang Jinfu helplessly.
Jiang Jinfu said, "I'll report this to the General. You should go and see the Grand General first!"
He had no other choice but to say this under such circumstances.
He scoffed to himself. This Zhao Dahe looked ugly and bad-tempered, but he had a shrewd side. He did not reveal anything and did not give anyone any information.
