The ecstasy on Leng Tao's face froze.
An awkward expression appeared on his chubby white face, and he snorted sternly, "I really didn't expect Head Chief Chu to be from the Li Dynasty!"
Chu Li replied lazily, "I'm from the High Duke's Public House. Since when did I become from the Li Dynasty? Imperial Crown Prince, think carefully before you speak. Don't just say ridiculous things! "
Leng Tao scoffed. "If you're not from the Li Dynasty, how did you get the quota?"
"There are many ways to get the quota." Chu Li said, "I'm surprised that you came to Goddess Attraction Mountain. I thought it would be Prince Leng Feng, I didn't expect it to be you."
"Hmph, Leng Feng won't come. You must've made a deal with the Li Dynasty. You must've betrayed the Ji Dynasty!" Leng Tao said.
"Imperial Crown Prince, you're being too nosy," Chu Li said.
Leng Tao puffed out his chest. "As a disciple of the Ji Dynasty's imperial family, how can I let you do whatever you want!"
Chu Li ignored him and fist saluted Tang Zhao and Li Xuanxin. "Thank you for your guidance."
"We wouldn't dare." Both of them were rather cold.
Chu Li smiled.
He suppressed the Fu Dynasty's young disciples to the point that they could not lift their heads, so Fu Dynasty's Tang Zhao was hostile. Chu Li must have a close relationship with the Li Dynasty's imperial family since the Qiu Dynasty and the Li Dynasty had a bad relationship, so Qiu Dynasty's Li Xuanxin was hostile too.
Leng Tao stared at him and scoffed. "Chu Li, I'll spread this news and your name will be infamous!"
Chu Li furrowed his brows and glared at him unhappily. A flash of electricity flashed across his eyes.
Leng Tao felt his body tense up and his hair stood up. He could not help but avoid his gaze.
Chu Li scoffed. "Imperial Crown Prince, I'm sure you're smart!"
"I'll definitely report this!" Leng Tao scoffed. "Unless you kill me!"
Chu Li smiled. "Why would I kill you over such a small matter? I didn't plan to hide this and I can't hide it anyway. This has nothing to do with the Li Dynasty, it's because of the Saint of the Holy Church of Light. I'm just friends with the Saint."
"Hmph, Holy Church of Light? Leng Tao scoffed. "You and the Holy Church of Light are irreconcilable enemies. How can you be related to the Holy Church of Light? Moreover, you are friends with the Saint of the Holy Church of Light!"
He knew that Chu Li had killed many disciples of the Holy Church of Light and that the Holy Church of Light had sought revenge on him.
Chu Li shook his head. "How can there be an eternal enemy? You don't need to know about this. I've just arrived, so I'm here to pay my respects to the inner mountain disciples of Goddess Attraction Mountain, right? "
"Tomorrow." Zhu Yuan shook his head and said, "Senior Brother Zhou is in closed-door training. He will come out tomorrow, so you won't be able to see him even if you go now."
Chu Li nodded.
Zhu Yuan and the others quickly left, leaving Chu Li alone in the courtyard.
Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror followed them closely. He saw Tang Zhao and Li Xuanxin's gloomy faces, and Leng Tao's expression was also unpleasant. They were very vigilant towards Chu Li's arrival. Zhu Yuan, on the other hand, looked indifferent.
Chu Li entered the house. The simple house had everything he needed. The bedding was clean and spotless, and there were even a few martial arts secret manuals on the desk. He flipped through them casually and lost interest. He did not lack secret manuals, but he lacked the Dragon Taming Technique.
The night passed uneventfully. The next morning, he was practicing his fist art in the courtyard when Zhu Yuan appeared and said with a smile, "Brother Chu, let's pay our respects to Senior Brother Zhou."
Chu Li withdrew his stance and changed into a new set of clothes. Then, he followed Zhu Yuan and rode on the white crane once again. As they flew upward, the temperature suddenly dropped. It was as if autumn had turned into winter. White mist rose from their breaths, and the wind that blew against their faces was like a knife.
The white crane landed in front of a palace at the peak of the mountain. The temperature suddenly rose as if it was spring.
The surrounding flowers and plants were lush, and a delicate fragrance wafted through the air.
The solemn palace was somewhat similar to an imperial palace. It was built on the top of the mountain and bathed in the sunlight. The glazed tiles of the palace shone with a golden light, forcing people to close their eyes. They could only see the situation in front of the palace if they lowered their heads.
Zhu Yuan turned his head and whispered to him, "Senior Brother Zhou has a bad temper. Just listen to what he says and don't make him angry."
Chu Li nodded.
Zhu Yuan arrived at the bottom of the hundred steps and said, "Senior Brother Zhou, disciple Chu Li from the Li Dynasty is here to pay his respects."
"Come in!" A deep voice came from inside the hall.
Zhu Yuan led Chu Li up the hundred steps step by step and arrived at the doorstep of the hall. He fist saluted and said, "Senior Brother Zhou."
Then, he crossed the doorstep and entered the hall.
Chu Li followed him in and saw a handsome young man sitting cross-legged in the center of the hall. He wore a yellow shirt and his eyes were bright like torches. It was as if he could see through Chu Li's body and mind with just a glance.
There was a giant snake coiled around him in the shape of a huge disc. It was as thick as a person's waist and Chu Li estimated that it was about thirty meters long. The snake's head was ferocious and terrifying. The snake's eyes emitted a cold light as it stared at Chu Li. Its forked tongue kept hissing as if it was going to pounce on him at any time.
If it was an ordinary person, they would have collapsed to the ground at the sight of this giant snake.
Chu Li calmly sized up this giant snake and shook his head. Although this snake was huge, it was not a spirit beast. It was still a normal beast. No matter how big it was, it would not be able to surpass the difference between a mortal and a spirit.
Just like humans, no matter how burly and strong an ordinary person was, they were still different from a Grandmaster.
"Senior Brother Zhou, Chu Li is here," Zhu Yuan fist saluted and said respectfully.
"Greetings, Senior Brother Zhou." Chu Li fist saluted.
Zhou Jie said coldly, "Why are you only here now?"
Chu Li said, "I was delayed by something. Please forgive me, Senior Brother Zhou!"
"You can still be delayed in Goddess Attraction Mountain? It seems like you don't take Goddess Attraction Mountain seriously!" Zhou Jie scoffed. "Then why did you come to Goddess Attraction Mountain!"
Chu Li said helplessly, "I didn't mean it that way."
He knew that Zhou Jie was taking the opportunity to create trouble and put him in his place. However, why would a disciple of Goddess Attraction Mountain do this?
Zhou Jie was wearing a treasure weapon that blocked the prying of the Omniscient Mirror. Chu Li could not see through his thoughts, but such hostility did not come out of nowhere. There must be a reason.
However, he had to lower his head when he was under someone else's roof. If he wanted the Dragon Taming Technique, he could not be chased out of Goddess Attraction Mountain by Zhou Jie.
Zhu Yuan kept quiet out of fear, not daring to say a word.
Zhou Jie stared coldly at Chu Li. The giant snake behind him slowly crawled toward Chu Li, its long forked tongue hissing non-stop. It was almost touching Chu Li.
Chu Li looked at Zhou Jie without moving.
Zhou Jie stared at him without blinking, watching as the giant snake kept approaching Chu Li.
Chu Li said, "Does Senior Brother Zhou want to kill me?"
"Do you know that Goddess Attraction Mountain has the right to kill you?" Zhou Jie laughed coldly. "No one will say a word if you're killed!"
Chu Li nodded. "If I've done anything wrong, I'm willing to be punished!"
"Senior Brother Zhou, Brother Chu was only a few days late. He doesn't deserve to die, right?" Zhu Yuan said.
Zhou Jie's gaze suddenly shot over. The giant snake slid and instantly shot in front of Zhu Yuan. Its long tongue flicked in and out in front of Zhu Yuan, ready to strike his face at any time.
Zhu Yuan's expression changed slightly.
The giant snake's aura made him feel an immense pressure, and he felt a sense of danger.
Chu Li frowned. He did not expect Zhou Jie to be so overbearing and unreasonable, insisting on putting him in his place.
He did not expect Zhu Yuan to be so innocent. He really did not look like a disciple of the Imperial Family.
