The next morning, Chu Li had yet to wake up. Due to his weak state, he could not sleep well. This was the state of having his martial arts crippled. His face was pale and he was lazing around in bed.
Someone knocked on the door and Lu Zhengjun's voice came from outside. "We should move!"
"Mmm." Chu Li responded coldly and got up to put on his clothes.
Chu Li did not hate Lu Zhengjun too much. Even if Lu Zhengjun wanted to cripple his martial arts, he did not hesitate to kill Lu Guangdi.
Chu Li kept Lu Guangdi back to Tide-listening Pavilion because he wanted to observe his behavior. He was afraid that he would give himself away when he reunited with Lu Zhengjun. No matter how powerful his Heavenly Demonic Power was, he could not be too careless. After all, Lu Zhengjun was not someone to be trifled with.
Chu Li secretly observed Lu Guangdi for a few days and had a clear understanding of him. Fortunately, Lu Zhengjun did not spend time with his son every day, so he was not very clear about some details.
Since that was the case, Lu Guangdi was useless. Keeping him alive would only bring trouble. Thus, Chu Li decided to kill him and bury him somewhere without anyone knowing.
When he put on his clothes and left the house, Lu Zhengjun was already standing outside. He frowned as he looked at him.
Lu Zhengjun faintly felt that something was different.
It was an indescribable feeling. Although Chu Li's words and actions were exactly the same as Lu Guangdi's, this was the result of Chu Li's careful observation. Nonetheless, he could not completely hide it from a top-notch master like Lu Zhengjun.
Chu Li was slightly nervous but quickly calmed down. He said lazily and impatiently, "Why are you leaving so early? We're not in a hurry anyway!"
Lu Zhengjun said, "It's best to return early."
"Hmph!" Chu Li sneered. "Do you want to see your children early?"
Lu Zhengjun said impatiently, "If you want to live comfortably in Green Deer Cliff, don't provoke them!"
"Then they better not provoke me!" Chu Li said impatiently, "If they provoke me, I won't go easy on them!"
"Then you're in for a hard time." Lu Zhengjun shook his head. "But don't worry, they can't be bothered with you. They have their own things to do. Do you still want breakfast?"
"I want to say goodbye to Master and Master's Seniors."
"Don't bother. It's not like you're not coming back. I'll be back in less than a year!"
"You still have to say hello."
"Let's go!" Lu Zhengjun had no other choice. He lifted Chu Li's shoulder and left Tide-listening Pavilion like a gust of wind, ignoring Chu Li's struggles and shouts. Soon enough, they were 50 miles away, but they did not stop to rest.
In the end, Chu Li stopped resisting and closed his eyes, not saying a word.
Lu Zhengjun was not bothered at all. He said gently, "Chu Li's martial art is indeed superb. If you don't cultivate well, you won't be able to defeat him."
"His martial arts have been crippled," Chu Li said snappily.
Lu Zhengjun asked, "What if he recovers? He was a cultivation genius! … If you don't want to be defeated by him again, then train hard! "
"I know, I don't need you.
Back? Pitter patter
Lu Zhengjun shook his head but did not blame him. They continued their journey.
His speed was incomparably fast, as if he had an endless amount of inner strength, and he kept rushing forward.
The location of Green Deer Cliff had always been a mystery. Chu Li did not expect Green Deer Cliff to be located on an island in the middle of the sea. Without Lu Zhengjun's guidance, no one would have thought of it, and they would not have been able to find the way.
Lu Zhengjun found a small boat and sailed on it despite the strong wind. After a day's journey, they arrived at an island.
This small island was like a giant turtle floating on the surface of the sea, faintly swimming about. The sea was vast, and the small island was lush and full of life. Chu Li could already feel the dense spiritual energy from afar.
Although the spiritual energy here was far from that of Hundred-Thousand Hills, it was abundant and far better than the outside world. Moreover, this was only because of the distance. If they entered the island, the spiritual energy would be even more abundant.
Lu Zhengjun steered the boat closer to the small island and crashed into a towering reef. The scene before his eyes changed as the small island was suddenly in the other direction. It was initially in the east, but it was now in the west, and they were a few miles apart.
Chu Li smiled. This was clearly the power of a formation.
He did not make a fuss because it was natural for the Four Major Sects to be protected by a formation. He would only be surprised if there was no formation.
Lu Zhengjun drove the small boat at an unusually fast speed. The boat rushed to the west, and when they got closer, they realized that it was a rock island. There was nothing on the island other than bare rocks, and they could see everything in one glance.
Chu Li knew that the island was still under a formation, and it was still an eyesore.
After a brief moment, the small boat passed between two reefs. It was a close call, and the scene in front of them changed again.
Another lush and lively island appeared in front of them. This time, the island had become a giant, which was ten times the size of the previous island. The island had pavilions and pavilions with richly ornamented beams and painted rafters, and it was overflowing with an ancient vibe. At the easternmost part of the island was a towering cliff that looked like a sword that was stabbed into the sky.
From afar, Chu Li could hear the sound of bamboo flute. It was quiet and serene, and it made one feel peaceful.
Chu Li was stunned because the island was shrouded in a faint layer of golden light.
He was very familiar with this layer of golden light as he had experienced it in the Titanium Temple. Within the golden light, all divine powers were rendered useless!
Lu Zhengjun looked at Chu Li and said gently, "Don't talk too much when you're on the island."
"Mm." Chu Li looked at the big island blankly.
Lu Zhengjun looked at him and smiled. At the end of the day, Chu Li had not seen much of the world. Although Tide-listening Pavilion was quiet, it was not suitable for young people to stay in. Being ignorant and inexperienced would inevitably limit one's horizons.
The small boat continued to approach them, and they boarded a pier. After walking for a hundred meters, they entered the island, and it was as warm as spring.
Two handsome young men in green robes greeted them with fist salutes. "Master's Junior Lu."
"Mm, this is my son who was stranded outside, Lu Guangdi." Lu Zhengjun said, "His martial arts has been crippled, so I'm planning to help him build his foundation at Green Deer Cliff so that he can cultivate again."
"Yes, please follow us," the two handsome young men responded respectfully and brought them to a basilica.
The basilica was empty, there was no one there.
A handsome young man pulled on a jade tray next to him, and a clear sound was heard. Soon, footsteps were heard, and four middle-aged men arrived. When they saw Lu Zhengjun, they were stunned. A middle-aged man with a round face smiled. "Junior Brother Lu, what are you …?"
"I'm bringing my son to the island." Lu Zhengjun scoffed.
The middle-aged man and the other three men looked at Chu Li and smiled with complicated expressions. "Looks like he's a talented man. Why was his martial arts crippled?"
"Junior Brother Lu, you crippled his martial arts just to let him enter the island?"
"No." Lu Zhengjun scoffed. "He was crippled by someone else!"
"Oh, who's so daring to provoke him?"
"Chu Li."
"Ah, this young fella!" The middle-aged man with a round face laughed. "He's famous now, it's like a reincarnation cycle. It's the same situation as you, Junior Brother Lu. Will he end up the same way?"
Lu Zhengjun's face darkened.
The other three men glared at the middle-aged man.
Lu Zhengjun scoffed. "Based on the Tempest Temple's strength, Chu Li's ending won't be any different. Besides, I've crippled his martial arts!"
"Hehe, Junior Brother Lu, you're so cruel." The middle-aged man laughed.
