Kou Qiong widened his eyes and looked at Chu Li eagerly.
Chu Li glared at him. "Why? You want me to be a patrol?"
"It's such a good opportunity to be promoted. Don't you want to go?" Kou Qiong was surprised.
Chu Li shook his head. "It's unjustifiable. I won't go!"
"Young Master, this is a rare opportunity!" Kou Qiong hurriedly said, "If you miss this opportunity, I don't know when you will get another one! The war with the Qiu Dynasty is coming to an end, so it'll be very difficult for me to get promoted again! "
"There will be," Chu Li said faintly. "Besides, I don't need to be promoted. I'm fine here."
"Young master, with your martial arts and talents, it's a waste of your talents to stay in Gale City!"
"What do you mean by that? I like being free and unfettered here."
"Young Master is not someone who is willing to be under others."
"Young? Gather? Si Fei Blackmails the Emperor and Seizes Sang Jun.
Kou Qiong shook his head and chuckled. "Gale Branch is the most powerful branch now, so no one dares to mess around. By the way, Miss Yue Ru has returned."
Chu Li nodded. "Looks like he's out of isolated cultivation. … Alright, you may continue with your work."
Kou Qiong cupped his fists and left.
Chu Li sat on the bed and began to cultivate Fillip Swift Thunder.
As the number of times he cultivated and the time he spent cultivating Fillip Swift Thunder became faster and faster. Unlike other martial arts which became slower and slower as he progressed, Fillip Swift Thunder became faster and faster, like a rolling snowball.
The beginning of Finger Flicking Swift Thunder was difficult, and it was a great challenge for everyone. It exceeded their limits, and it was too complicated, and it consumed a lot of their spirit.
It was more painful to exhaust one's spirit than one's body.
The former was like the feeling of waking up with a hangover, painful and unbearable, while the latter was equivalent to heavy physical labor. Although it was painful, there was a hidden sense of comfort. They were two completely different feelings, so very few people could endure the mental pain and would rather let their bodies be exhausted.
His mental strength was strong, so he could activate his Circulatory Cycle faster than others. Even so, after more than a hundred Circulatory Cycles, when he opened his eyes, it was already early evening. The house was dark, but the courtyard was as bright as day.
He stood up and walked out of the room. A maid served him dinner and stood by his side.
The sound of footsteps could be heard again. Kou Qiong rushed in, his face full of anger.
Chu Li looked up at him. "What happened this time? As the deputy branch master, you must be steady! "
"Young Master, we've received news from the Great Light Peak again," Kou Qiong said. "Someone has beaten us to it and snatched the patrol's position!"
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "Which one?"
"Deng Datong!" Kou Qiong said hatefully, "I didn't expect this bastard to be so shameless, taking advantage of the situation!"
Chu Li put down his chopsticks and pointed to the opposite side. "Sit down and we'll talk."
Kou Qiong sat at the other end of the stone table and sighed, "I heard that this Deng Datong has already made a military pledge to avenge the previous Patrol within ten days. Otherwise, he will not be the Patrol anymore!"
Chu Li frowned.
Since he dared to say such big words, he definitely had something up his sleeves. Moreover, he was 120% confident. Otherwise, he would not have acted like this.
None of the disciples of the Holy Church of Light were fools. On the contrary, they were all extraordinarily intelligent. Since Deng Datong had spoken like this, he must have found the murderer and was confident that he could kill him.
"Forget it then." Chu Li nodded.
"Young Master, this is too infuriating!" Kou Qiong said, "This isn't fair!"
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "How do you know it's not fair? As far as I know, the Saint is very fair. "
"Based on your contributions, Young Master, you should've been promoted to Patrol long ago. You've been suppressing him all this time, and you've given such a good opportunity to someone else." Kou Qiong scoffed. "Deng Datong was just lucky to have contributed a little in the war against the Qiu Dynasty. Compared to Young Master, your contributions are nothing!"
Chu Li smiled and waved his hand. "Alright, since this matter has been decided, let's not bother about him."
"Young Master, if you don't say anything this time, I'm afraid this will happen again next time. Kind people will be bullied!" Kou Qiong said, "Young Master, you should talk to the Saint about it. She can't bully people like this!"
"Stop?? Pui?
Back? Bun to relieve boredom? Oyster's broken bones and ribbons? Pui? Bad dreams are easy to masturbate.
Kou Qiong immediately became discouraged.
Chu Li scoffed. "Don't talk about this anymore! … I'll be staying here for a few days, and I'll be going into isolated cultivation soon! Oh right, find out who killed the Patrol. "
"Yes," Kou Qiong said dejectedly.
Chu Li waved his hand and gestured for him to leave. Kou Qiong had no choice but to leave.
Chu Li pondered and looked up at the sky, then at the direction of the Great Light Peak. He sighed in relief.
He had been worried about this when he first infiltrated the Holy Church of Light. If he were to attack the Ji Dynasty, even people who did not know him would feel uncomfortable. This opportunity might seem important to others, but he avoided it as if he was avoiding a snake or a scorpion.
Now, it seemed that he should not be promoted anymore. Otherwise, if he became a Patrol, or even an Altar Leader or a Priest, he would have to deal with the Ji Dynasty. The Ji Dynasty was the Li Dynasty's biggest enemy.
After dinner, Chu Li was not in a hurry to leave. He walked around Gale City to let others see him. When he passed by the Phoenix Goddess Brothel, he did not go in to meet Miss Yue Ru.
The next morning, he returned to his bedroom from the Public House. Kou Qiong was already waiting outside.
He stood motionless in the middle of the courtyard as if he was meditating.
Chu Li asked, "What's the matter?"
Kou Qiong answered, "Young Master, someone from the Great Light Peak is here."
"… Let her in," Chu Li said lazily.
"Yes," Kou Qiong responded and quickly brought a young lady in green.
Chu Li left the bedroom and went down the stairs. He fist saluted and smiled. "Senior Sister Du."
"Junior Brother Zhao." The young lady in green had a graceful figure and a beautiful face. She fist saluted and smiled. "I'm summoned by the Saint."
"Alright, let's go now," Chu Li said.
The two of them used their Light-body Technique and flew out of Gale City.
The young lady in green pushed her Light-body Technique to its limit. She floated like a gust of wind, but her speed was as fast as lightning. She was twice as fast as a galloping horse and had a longer endurance.
Chu Li followed her leisurely and asked casually, "Senior Sister Du, I heard that another Patrol has been appointed?"
"Yes." The young lady in green nodded.
She was secretly surprised. Zhao Dahe lived up to his reputation. He had cultivated for a short period of time but his cultivation level was far higher than hers.
Chu Li asked, "Senior Brother Deng has left the mountain after he became the Patrol, right?"
"Senior Brother Deng is waiting for you, Junior Brother Zhao." The young lady in green shook her head.
Chu Li was stunned. "Waiting for me? I don't think I know Senior Brother Deng. We're not friends. "
"That's strange." The young lady in green smiled. "Senior Brother Deng seems to value you a lot. He specifically asked the Saint for your help."
Chu Li frowned. "What help does he need?"
"To avenge Senior Brother Chang." The young lady in green said, "Senior Brother Deng has issued a military order to avenge Senior Brother Chang within ten days. However, he has a condition. He wants you to be his assistant, Junior Brother Zhao."
Chu Li asked, "Did the Saint agree?"
"Yes." The young lady in green nodded.
Chu Li's face darkened.
The young lady in green noticed his expression and quickly said, "This is an opportunity to make a contribution. Senior Brother Deng has good intentions."
Chu Li shook his head with a gloomy face.
The young lady in green asked, "Why? Are you unwilling, Junior Brother Zhao?"
Chu Li scoffed. "If I'm going to avenge Senior Brother Chang, why should I be Senior Brother Deng's assistant? I can do it myself!"
