Hai Qingshan's expression changed. He stopped struggling.
Six of them faced off against six others while the remaining Grandmaster floated towards the carriage.
Chu Li's expression changed. Hai Qingshan struggled to get out.
Chu Li disappeared in a flash. Hai Qingshan staggered and quickly stopped himself. He then used all his strength to run towards the carriage to block the elder in grey.
Second Lady Siao Shi did not know any martial arts and her body was delicate. She could not be frightened. Although Elder Guo Mulin was an Innate Master, it was just a cultivation level. He did not practice any powerful martial arts. He would not be able to withstand a single blow.
Once the elder in grey went over, Second Lady Siao Shi would not be able to survive!
Thinking about this, Hai Qingshan was anxious. His body felt like it was on fire. His speed was much faster than usual. He shot towards the carriage like an arrow. He wanted to block the elder in grey even if he had to risk his life. He did not care if he was a match for a Grandmaster.
A green shadow flashed in his eyes. Chu Li appeared in front of the carriage. He shrunk his body and went inside.
"Bang!" The carriage was torn apart and pieces of debris flew everywhere. Chu Li held Siao Shi in one hand and Guo Mulin in the other as he stood on the carriage.
"Good boy!" The elder in grey shouted and punched in the air.
Chu Li disappeared in a flash and appeared two feet away. He raised his voice and said, "Brother Hai, I will leave first. There is no need to fight with them!"
He disappeared in a flash. There was a clear mark of a fist at his original position.
Hai Qingshan stopped moving. He widened his eyes in disbelief. He let out a sigh of relief and almost fell to the ground.
Chu Li held the two of them and disappeared from everyone's sight.
The elder in grey snorted and chased after him.
If Chu Li escaped, they would lose all their face. Seven Grandmasters were dispatched but they could not defeat a weak girl. How could they enjoy the Ren Public House's offerings?
A short pine tree stood proudly in the wind, its twigs twisting.
Suddenly, the figures of Chu Li and the other two appeared out of thin air under the tree.
Chu Li let out a long sigh and let go.
Siao Shi's face was pale.
Mulin did not look good either. He pushed Chu Li away and said angrily, "You are so clumsy. If anything happens to Young Siao Shi, you will be the one to blame!"
Chu Li also felt that something was not right.
Xiao Shi's body was as light as a feather, soft and boneless. She was far more fragile than he had imagined. The few flashes that she made to break through the void would be unbearable to most people. It was even more unbearable than the pilots of the future generations breaking through the speed of sound. It was a few times worse than being in a state of weightlessness.
Siao Shi bent over and retched a few times. She waved her hand.
Mulin rubbed her back carefully. He did not want to scare her. He asked softly, "Are you alright? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
Siao Shi took out a silk handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the corner of her mouth. A smile appeared on her pale face, making her look extremely weak, "It's nothing, Chu Li saved us."
"Hmph, I really don't know if he's trying to save or kill me!" Mulin glared at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled awkwardly at his thoughtlessness.
Mulin scoffed, "If you do it again, Xiao Shi will be dead!"
Chu Li said helplessly, "Elder Guo, we can't just wait for death, right?"
Mulin scoffed and turned his head away, ignoring him. He asked in a low voice, "Shika-chan, how was it?"
Xiao Shi coughed twice and forced a smile. "I'm much better now."
Her limpid eyes fell on Chu Li's face. She smiled, "Thank you so much, Chu Li."
Chu Li said, "Lady Siao Shi, you're too kind. It's my duty. We better not stop for too long. They might catch up!"
"You're so fast. How can he catch up?" Mulin said in disbelief, "He doesn't have a dog's nose!"
Chu Li shook his head, "A Grandmaster's senses are far better than a normal person's. They might be able to smell it. Lady Siao Shi and Elder Guo, please change your clothes. I'll go first."
He was about to leave.
"Wait!" Mulin quickly said, "Where are you going?"
Chu Li said, "I'm going back to see if I can lure that guy back."
"How?" Mulin asked.
"If I kill one, he will naturally go back."
"You're so arrogant. You can kill a Grandmaster?"
"Where there's a will, there's a way. I'll give it a try." Chu Li looked at Siao Shi helplessly.
It was supposed to be a simple matter. All he had to do was to bring Siao Shi away and not let the opponent catch up. However, Siao Shi's body was so weak. She could not withstand the speed of the Light-body Technique. Even if he did not use Imminent Skyline, normal Light-body Technique would not be able to withstand it.
He estimated that the Grandmaster could catch up to them. They could not escape either. The only way was to go back. There might be a chance when they were unprepared.
Only luring the elder away would not solve the problem. As long as the elder ignored him, he would not be able to do anything. He alone was not his match. A sneak attack would be useless. If he wanted to sneak attack, he would have to sneak attack the six people who were fighting. There was still a glimmer of hope.
If he made a sneak attack and crippled one of them, he could lure the elder back. The masters of the Ren Public House saw that there was no hope of success. They gave up. Grandmasters cherished their lives.
"Take this!" Mulin threw a black porcelain bottle over.
Chu Li reached out and caught it. He looked at Mulin.
"Seven Miles Against the Wind!" Mulin scoffed, "Open this in the wind. No matter how powerful your martial arts is, you won't be able to block it!"
Chu Li was surprised, "It can charm a Grandmaster?"
"So what if he's a Grandmaster!" Mulin scoffed, "As long as he's a mortal, he'll fall!"
Chu Li was dubious.
If he really had this thing, the Grandmasters would not be so scary anymore.
Siao Shi shook her head, "Elder Mulin, tell the truth. Don't hurt him."
Mulin scoffed, "Alright, Grandmasters won't be charmed so easily. They're smarter than monkeys. When the cork is pulled out, they'll sense the danger and stop breathing."
Chu Li nodded slowly. He kept it in his sleeve. If he used it at the right time, it might be effective.
His face changed. He knew something was wrong.
The elder appeared in his Omniscient Mirror. He was three miles away. He could catch up with them in a few breaths. He seemed to know where the three of them were hiding. He stepped on the treetops and went in a straight line.
He thought quickly. His body flashed and appeared a hundred meters away. After two flashes, he was already a mile away. He let out a long whistle.
When the elder heard the whistle, he stopped. He thought for a while and smiled. He continued to go in a straight line, ignoring Chu Li.
Chu Li saw the situation in the Omniscient Mirror. He sighed. His plan could not keep up with the changes. He could only go forward.
The elder suddenly sped up. He was like an ethereal shadow. In a blink of an eye, he was a mile away. He threw a punch at Siao Shi from a hundred feet away.
Chu Li felt bitter. He helplessly flashed and appeared in front of Siao Shi. He took the punch head-on.
"Bam!" His face flashed gold. He swung his hand and a cold light shot out.
"Chi!" The cold light broke through the air like silk.
The elder dodged. He wanted to avoid it but he hesitated. Then, his body trembled and flew out.
Chu Li fell limply. The golden light faded from his face. It was as pale as lime.
The elder flew ten meters away. A flying knife was stabbed in his heart. The blade went into his body. Only the handle was left. He was not dead yet.
He struggled to sit up. He looked down at his bleeding heart. He looked up and stared at Chu Li.
Chu Li's mouth was bleeding but he was smiling.
Siao Shi's face changed. She looked at Chu Li.
How could a Grandmaster's attack be so easy to block!
Guo Mulin quickly went forward to check on Chu Li's injury. Chu Li waved his hand with difficulty. He climbed up little by little. He moved in front of the elder. He slowly pulled out the long sword from his waist and swung it.
The cold light flashed. The elder was beheaded. Blood spurted out more than ten steps away.
