"If that's the case, we're related to the Leader of the Changshen Faction?" Chu Li was surprised.
Dong Jianxin nodded. "Yes, but there's nothing else."
"What a pity." Chu Li shook his head. "It's a pity that such a powerful faction disappeared!"
"Who said it wasn't." Dong Jianxin smiled and continued, "But Master also said that this might be Leader Song's arrangement. I'm afraid there's no place for the Changshen Faction anymore."
"Hmm …" Chu Li nodded slowly. "That's true. They can tolerate Goddess Attraction Mountain but not the Changshen Faction."
After killing so many Enlightened Masters, they had become public enemies. After Song Wuji left, how could the remaining Enlightened Masters not seek revenge? Or because they coveted the Changshen Faction's martial arts, they would not let them go.
Disappearing like this was the only way.
He was excited. "If that's the case, the inheritance of the Changshen Faction might not be extinct."
"It might not be extinct, but it hasn't been cultivated." Dong Jianxin said, "And don't count on it. In this era, the truly powerful antique studies are passed down from the Outland. Antique studies of Spirit Beasts have no future."
Chu Li asked, "The Changshen Faction's martial arts are antique studies of Spirit Beasts?"
Dong Jianxin shook his head. "I guess so, or else there would be Enlightened Masters."
Chu Li smiled. "I don't think so. Maybe they've been hiding for a long time. Maybe they want to revive the faction."
"Haha!" Dong Jianxin laughed. "You're so imaginative!"
As the two were talking, footsteps were heard. Xiao Qi and Lu Yurong arrived.
Dong Jianxin smiled and looked at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled. "Madam and Miss Lu, are you done sparring?"
Lu Yurong shook her head and sighed. "Third Lady Xiao's Regal Sword Scripture is really powerful!"
"The Empyrean Fairy Power is the same," Xiao Qi said.
Chu Li said, "Both of you are cultivating mystical techniques. Who's stronger or weaker depends on your cultivation level."
"Our cultivation levels are similar. We've sparred twice and it ended in a draw," Xiao Qi said.
She was a little disappointed. She did not expect that she could not suppress Lu Yurong even though she had suddenly reached such a level.
She did not have a strong desire to win, nor was she competitive. However, she had suffered too many losses at Lu Yurong's hands. She always had an obsession to beat Lu Yurong once, but unfortunately, her wish never came true. Until now, when she saw Lu Yurong staying at Goddess Attraction Mountain, she felt that there was a little hope. She did not expect that she still could not beat Lu Yurong.
Lu Yurong smiled and said, "If it wasn't for the fact that I've improved by leaps and bounds recently and had a sudden epiphany, I really wouldn't be a match for you, Third Lady. I was just lucky!"
Xiao Qi gave her a sidelong glance but did not say anything.
Chu Li said, "If that's the case, let's spar more often."
Dong Jianxin secretly gave him a thumbs up. As expected of Junior Brother Chu, his expression didn't change even in such a situation. Admirable!
Lu Yurong said, "Chu Li, I should leave too."
Chu Li was stunned. "You're leaving? This is a holy land for cultivation. "
"At my current level, it's very difficult for me to improve further. I need time to accumulate. It doesn't matter where I cultivate," Lu Yurong said. "It's not sensible of me to disturb you and Xiao Qi here."
Chu Li glanced at Dong Jianxin.
Dong Jianxin coughed lightly, closed fist saluted and left.
After waiting for him to leave, Chu Li frowned and said, "Is it uncomfortable staying on the mountain?"
Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "I really don't want to stay any longer. I'm worried about the Public House."
"… Alright." Chu Li slowly nodded.
It was indeed not appropriate for him to ask her to stay. Now that Tang Ye and Tang Haotian were dead, Tang Xu might not provoke him again. Therefore, there was no danger for Lu Yurong to leave the mountain. Moreover, if she was not in the Public House for a long time, she would indeed be worried.
Xiao Qi said, "In my opinion, you should go back to the Public House first. If there's nothing going on there, then come back to cultivate. After all, cultivating here is much better than outside."
"Since Third Lady has invited me, then I will respectfully accept." Lu Yurong pursed her lips and smiled.
Xiao Qi glanced at Chu Li and smiled faintly.
Chu Li pretended not to see and nodded.

In the dark of the night, Chu Li suddenly appeared on the Jade Guardian Island of the Public House with Xiao Qi in his arms.
Xiao Qi went to meet Siao Tieying and the others while Chu Li returned to his courtyard. He saw Li Meng who was curiously looking at the spirit herbs under the Glory's Will Tree.
In the brightly lit courtyard, Li Meng was dressed in an emerald gown. She looked beautiful.
When she saw him, Li Meng pouted and closed fist saluted.
Chu Li waved his hand. "Have you eaten?"
"If I don't eat now, I'm going to starve to death." Li Meng said, "What should I do? Should I cultivate? You haven't taught me martial arts yet. Didn't Master ask you to teach me the Scripture of Great Light? "
"Do you know how to recite Buddhist scriptures now?" Chu Li asked.
"Of course." Li Meng nodded. "I didn't waste the past six months. I'm the most skilled at reciting scriptures."
"Alright then, from today onwards, you will recite the Scripture of Great Light." Chu Li said.
As he spoke, he suddenly waved his hand.
Li Mengxue flew in front of him and watched helplessly as Chu Li raised his hand. Then, she took the initiative to touch his finger with her forehead. Suddenly, there was a "boom", and golden words the size of a fist flashed in front of her eyes.
Chu Li nodded in satisfaction and retracted his hand.
Li Meng was stunned. After a while, she regained her senses and widened her eyes at Chu Li curiously.
Chu Li said, "Do you recognize these words? Recite them three hundred times a day. "
"Three hundred times?" Li Meng cried out.
Chu Li said, "For the first ten days, three hundred times a day. After ten days, you have to recite them five hundred times a day. After a month, you have to recite them a thousand times."
"You … You …" Li Meng looked angry. "How can I recite them so many times? If I really do that, I'll go crazy."
"Let's see if you'll go crazy." Chu Li said.
Li Meng said, "Do I have a grudge against you?"
Chu Li smiled. "If you really have a grudge against me, can you still speak in front of me? Have a good rest today. We'll start tomorrow! "
After he said that, he turned and left the courtyard, leaving Li Meng stomping her feet angrily in the courtyard.

Early in the morning, Chu Li sent Xiao Qi to Siao Shi's place. After eating with the two ladies, he went to Hundred-Thousand Hills. He saw that the Spirit Devouring Turtle was still bound by the formation and was getting weaker.
The formation that he set up was called the Immortal Binding Formation. It was specially used to bind people. It had no other functions. As long as one was bound, the more they struggled, the stronger the formation would become. It would absorb the energy of the bound person. The more they struggled, the stronger it would become.
The Spirit Devouring Turtle was motionless. Even its head and legs were curled up. The white dragon was bored. When it saw Chu Li, it hurried over.
Chu Li caressed it and activated the Dragon Taming Technique to calm its anxiety. He shook his head helplessly. It seemed that the Spirit Devouring Turtle was going to waste its energy on him.
Chu Li chuckled and gently went to the turtle's shell. Instantly, the inner energy of the Dragon Taming Technique entered and stirred.
The Spirit Devouring Turtle trembled. It felt pain again and immediately begged for mercy.
This time, Chu Li restrained his soft-heartedness and continued to activate the Dragon Taming Technique. After an hour, he stopped and patted the white dragon. He disappeared again. He sensed that something happened at the High Duke's Public House.
As soon as he appeared, Xue glided into the courtyard and curtsied. "Master, there's a guest in the Public House. He wants to see you, Master."
"Who is it?" Chu Li asked.
