The four Elders looked at Chu Li for a while before they finally snorted and fluttered away.
Elder Su gritted his teeth and watched them leave before he said hatefully, "How overbearing!"
He was extremely indignant. As the prince's bodyguard, he actually had to swallow his anger and even wanted the prince to compromise himself. This was truly a disgrace. He was old now, and if he was younger, he would have long since made his move.
He glanced at Chu Li and shook his head while sighing. Zhao Dahe was really able to keep his composure.
Chu Li said, "We can't afford to offend these four fellows."
"They're more powerful than Liang Yinge?" Elder Ren asked.
Chu Li shook his head. "They're not as powerful as Liang Yinge, but once they fall out, more masters will come! There are many masters in the Fu Dynasty! "
If he were himself, he would not hesitate to teach them a lesson. However, he had three burdens with him. Once the masters from the Fu Dynasty arrived, he would definitely die.
Elder Su said, "Although the Fu Dynasty is powerful, it's not easy to find masters with more than three hundred years of experience."
Chu Li smiled but did not think much of it.
The Fu Dynasty had eight major sects, so they already had many Grandmasters. As time passed, there would naturally be more Grandmasters with more than three hundred years of experience.
He had seen the Fu Dynasty before and knew that it was not an exaggeration to say that there were many masters in the Fu Dynasty. The Li Dynasty was far from the Ji Dynasty.
They continued their journey.
When the sky was almost bright, they rested in a cypress forest. Chu Li's expression darkened as he said, "Liang Yinge is here again!"
"Hehe …" Liang Yinge's voice drifted over. He appeared with four elders and smiled as they stood on the treetop. "We meet again. How have you been!"
"Hypocrite!" Sun Yucheng scoffed.
He looked at Chu Li. This time, they did not have a trump card. Liang Yinge had brought more and stronger people with him. If the situation worsened, they would not be able to survive.
Chu Li frowned and remained silent.
He secretly sighed. Liang Yinge's actions were unexpected and extremely bold. He actually dared to chase after them again. Was he not afraid that the Fu Dynasty would find trouble with him?
Elder Su and Elder Ren looked at each other and their hearts sank.
Elder Su whispered, "Young Zhao, bring the prince away first. I'll deal with him with Elder Ren."
Chu Li shook his head. "It's useless. Elder Su, Elder Ren, it looks like we'll have to risk our lives!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his body abruptly swelled up. His eyes were bloodshot, and the muscles on his face were twisted, making him look hideous and terrifying. He snorted coldly and said, "Surnamed Liang, do you think you've got us?"
"Hehe, Brother Zhao, why are you so angry? It's bad for your body." Liang Yinge laughed.
He was secretly shocked. He did not expect Chu Li to be so decisive and use the secret skill right away.
Chu Li said, "If I can't survive today, then I'll drag a few of them down with me!"
"Brother Zhao, you're overthinking things. We, the Mysterious Pavilion, will always welcome such a talented person. Brother Zhao, you don't have to change your allegiance and betray the Holy Church of Light. You just have to be a High Official in the Mysterious Pavilion and help us out once in a while." Liang Yinge smiled. "As for the Twelfth Prince, we're only inviting him over as a guest. Of course, we won't do anything too extreme and trigger a war between the two countries, right?"
His voice was amiable, and his words were sincere and convincing.
Chu Li scoffed. "What a joke!"
Sun Yucheng said, "Pavilion Leader Liang, you want to use me as a hostage to ask for benefits from the Li Dynasty, right?"
"Hehe …" Liang Yinge said helplessly, "Prince, you're smart! But don't worry, Prince, we'll be respectful and won't bring shame to your identity. "
"If I become a hostage, I won't be able to face Father anymore." Sun Yucheng shook his head. "It's better to kill me."
"Prince, you need to know that the situation is more powerful than you are. A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Even if the Li Dynasty suffers some losses, you'll still be useful. You can work hard in the future and take it back." Liang Yinge laughed. "It's much better than dying here, isn't it? As long as there's life, there'll be firewood. "
Elder Su and Elder Ren were moved.
They were ready to fight to the death, but they knew that they could not save Sun Yucheng even if they died. It would be a pity for a prince to die like this, but they could always get back at him in the future.
Chu Li turned and said, "Elder Su, Elder Ren, use the secret skill."
"Yes." Their bodies suddenly expanded and then shrunk. They were even smaller than before, and they looked thin and strong. Their bodies were filled with an eerie aura, and their eyes were so cold that no one dared to look at them directly.
Chu Li stared coldly at Liang Yinge. "Aren't you afraid that the Li Dynasty will take revenge and kidnap the Zheng Dynasty's prince?"
"Hehe, there aren't many princes in the Zheng Dynasty, and each of them is closely protected. Moreover, their cultivation levels are high, so we're not afraid of being kidnapped." Liang Yinge smiled and shook his head. "Thank you for your concern, Brother Zhao."
Chu Li sneered. "It seems that Pavilion Leader Liang has never suffered losses."
"Well …" Liang Yinge smiled and nodded. "Ever since I took over the position of pavilion leader, I've been very careful in everything I do. I don't dare to make any mistakes."
Chu Li said, "Pavilion Leader Liang has miscalculated today. Let's perish together!"
"Hehe …" Liang Yinge shook his head and laughed. "Brother Zhao, why do you have to be so stubborn? Is it worth it for a master like you to die for someone else? Such a master should be in a high position, like me, so that his life will not be in vain! "
He saw that Chu Li and the others had used their secret skills, so he tried his best to stall for time.
There was a time limit for secret skills to be used, and the longer it was used, the weaker its power would be. The three people who had used their secret skills had powerful lethality.
If the five of them did not want to be injured, they would have to use their secret skills. However, once they used their secret skills, they would be entangled with the four people from the Li Dynasty. If other masters appeared and they were taken advantage of, they would become a joke.
Therefore, the best strategy was to stall for time, break their fighting spirit, and try to appease them until the time limit for the secret skills was over. Then, it would be a success!
Chu Li said coldly, "I've been ordered by the Saint to protect the Twelfth Prince. If the prince falls into your hands, it'll be the time of my death."
"You can go back and ask for reinforcements to snatch the prince back." Liang Yinge smiled.
Chu Li shook his head. "It's disdainful to run away. Instead of that, it's better to perish together. We'll be companions on the road to hell. Let's do it!"
He took a step forward like a ferocious tiger descending the mountain with great power.
If Chu Li unleashed his full cultivation level, it would be easy for him to kill any one of them. The four elders opposite him had sharp instincts. They sensed great danger and could not help but want to avoid it.
Liang Yinge waved his hand. "Retreat!"
The four elders and Liang Yinge retreated at the same time and disappeared into the forest. They wanted to avoid the attack temporarily and wait for the three people's secret skills to lose their effectiveness before attacking.
Sun Yucheng looked at Chu Li in confusion. "Brother Zhao, aren't you going to risk your life?"
Chu Li shook his head.
"Did Brother Zhao ask for help from Ninth Elder Sister?" Sun Yucheng smiled.
Chu Li shook his head again.
Elder Su and Elder Ren's bodies suddenly swelled and they stopped using their secret skills.
"Young Zhao, what's your trump card?" Elder Su asked.
Elder Ren said, "It's a stalling tactic, right?"
Chu Li nodded. "It's a stalling tactic."
Elder Su said, "If the Saint comes, we won't have to fear this Liang guy!"
He glared at the direction where Liang Yinge and the others disappeared. He knew that they must not have gone far and were hiding in the dark to watch him. Once they relaxed, they would disturb them so that the four of them would be exhausted and lose the ability to perish together.
