"Young Master, we still have things to do, so we can't leave." Song Siwen shook his head. "We have to go to the outskirts to see where they fought."
"Are you guys still suspecting Chu Li?" Siao Tieying said coldly, "I think you guys are just bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. You guys don't have the guts to deal with the Tempest Temple!"
"Eldest Young Master, that's not right." Song Siwen's face darkened as he scoffed, "If it's really the Tempest Temple's doing, of course we'll settle the score with these monks!"
"You want to settle the score with the Tempest Temple?" Siao Tieying cast a sidelong glance at them and sneered, "You talk big. I don't think you dare to speak the truth!"
"Young Master, what do you mean?" Song Siwen frowned.
Siao Tieying scoffed, "Do you really think that I cannot see the wound on High Official Zhao's chest?"
Song Siwen's face turned gloomy as he snorted, "I don't understand what you're saying!"
"You guys have frequent dealings with the monks from the Tempest Temple. I don't believe you guys can't tell." Siao Tieying sneered, "That's the Spear Finger Strike!"
Song Siwen's face darkened as he sneered at Siao Tieying, "So Master Siao has set us up!"
"Who knew that you would be so stupid as to crawl in so obediently!" Siao Tieying scoffed, "You obviously recognized us, why didn't you say anything? Are you afraid that I'll find out? … Are you trying to frame Chu Li, or are you afraid of becoming enemies with the Tempest Temple? "
Song Siwen snorted. "There are some things that you don't have to say so clearly."
Everyone knew about the imperial court's apprehension towards the Tempest Temple. If they were to fight against the Tempest Temple, not only would they not gain any benefits, but they would also suffer heavy casualties. They felt aggrieved and resentful, but also fearful and apprehensive. It would be best if they did not fight against the Tempest Temple.
Siao Tieying said, "You guys are really embarrassing. The imperial court can't do anything to the sects. It's all because of your incompetence!"
"Don't you understand how powerful the Great Tempest Temple is?" Song Siwen said, "They're hunting down your Public House's rank three Scribe. Chu Li is about to die, and your Public House dares to find trouble with them?"
"Who said that Chu Li would die!" Siao Tie Ying said coldly, "He will recover very soon!"
Song Siwen curled his lips and shook his head. "Young Master, we all know the power of the Perishable Touch. He's dead for sure. … Eldest Young Master, whether you agree or not, we'll have to go out of the city tomorrow to take a look! "
"Fine, it's up to you." Siao Tie Ying scoffed, "Chu Li cannot move. Look for it yourselves! "
Song Siwen took a deep breath to suppress his anger.
Before he came, he was already mentally prepared. The relationship between the Twelve Public Houses and the imperial court was subtle. It was not surprising that Siao Tieying did not take them seriously.
"We want to take a break," Song Siwen said.
Siao Tieying said, "Lin Quan, bring them to rest!"
"Yes." Linquan stepped forward with a smile and cupped his fists. "The six of you. Please follow me, we will go to the abode. "
Song Siwen and the other five gave a fist salute to Siao Tieying and left the hall without saying a word.
Siao Tieying sat coldly on his armchair as he watched them leave.
As soon as they left, he immediately stood up and paced around, shouting, "Men!"
A maid came to the door lightly. "Young Master?"
"Invite Third Miss over!"
"Yes."
Xiao Qi, dressed in white, came over. Seeing Siao Tieying's restless appearance, she said lightly, "Big Brother, is the situation not good?"
"Chu Li is too bold. He actually accused Zhao Zilai of colluding with the Tempest Temple to ambush him." Siao Tieying shook his head. "I thought he would say that he did not know anything. He only cared about escaping! "
"Did they believe him?"
"Doubtful," Siao Tieying shook his head. "These people are very observant. They are also afraid of the Tempest Temple. The rest is just wrangling. I will make a scene! … They are looking for you because of the Perishable Touch. They said that Chu Li will definitely die. If he is hit by the Perishable Touch four times, he will definitely die. I think it is not a lie. "
The Imperial House Protectors had a lot of dealings with the Tempest Temple. Many of them had died in the hands of the Tempest Temple. Their words were trustworthy.
"Perishable Touch …" Xiao Qi frowned.
She sat on the armchair and sighed. "It is indeed troublesome."
"Can Chu Li hold on?" Siao Tieying quickly asked.
Xiao Qi pondered and said, "Looking at Chu Li's expression, he should be fine. When he saved Second Eldest Sister, Elder Guo also predicted that he would die. Yet, he managed to hold on. He will recover quickly. Elder Guo also said that his vitality is much stronger than ordinary people. "
"That's good …" Siao Tieying let out a long sigh of relief. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "This Chu Li is really …"
He really didn't know what to say, so he didn't have anything to say. His ability to cause trouble was even better. He became enemies with the Tempest Temple and killed the Imperial House High Official. He was really bold.
"Third Younger Sister, do you have any ideas?" Siao Tieying asked.
Xiao Qi shook her head. "He has also cultivated the Heart Healing Technique. His boundary is higher than mine. There will be no problem."
Siao Tieying said, "Do you want to assign him a maid?"
Of course, they had to win over such an outstanding talent and make sure that he was loyal to them.
"Xue Ling did a good job." Xiao Qi said.
"How about letting Su Ru stay by his side?" Siao Tieying said, "I see that Su Ru treats Chu Li very well."
Xiao Qi gave him a sidelong glance.
Siao Tieying laughed. "I'm just saying. It's fine if you don't agree."
"Big Brother, don't you dare have any ideas about Su Ru!" Xiao Qi scoffed.
"How about letting him be the Chief of Symphony Island?" Xiao Tieying said. "I see that he likes Second Younger Sister very much."
"Big Brother!" Xiao Qi's face darkened.
Siao Tieying quickly waved his hand. "Alright, just pretend that I didn't say anything."
Through this incident, he had a clearer understanding of Chu Li's talent. He could do what others could not. He was only an Innate Master now. In the future, if he stepped into the Grandmaster's Boundary, the Public House would be like a tiger with wings.
Chu Li was at the age of youth. What could be better than a woman to tie him down?
"If Second Older Sister heard what you said, she would never see Chu Li again." Xiao Qi scoffed. "Are you saying that you want to marry Second Older Sister to him?"
"Younger Sister, you're really daring!" Siao Tieying laughed. "Of course, as long as Second Younger Sister agrees, it's not impossible. Chu Li is really not an ordinary person."
"Second Older Sister is proud and arrogant. She doesn't like Chu Li." Xiao Qi shook her head.
"But Chu Li is her savior."
"A savior is a savior. Chu Li is still a Public House Guard. No matter what, Second Older Sister will never like him." Xiao Qi shook her head and sighed. "She treats Chu Li as a subordinate. She doesn't see him as a man."
"Aren't you the same?" Siao Tieying shook his head and smiled.
Xiao Qi shook her head. "My heart technique doesn't allow me to fall in love. It's different from Second Older Sister."
"Sigh …" Siao Tieying sighed. "I don't know if Second Younger Sister can make it through this!"
After fighting for so long, it was all for the sake of unsealing the Vitality Sealing Finger for Second Younger Sister.
Now that the Imperial House High Official's path was blocked, there was still no news from the Thunder Guiding Blade. Second Younger Sister's fate was full of misfortunes. It was really pitiful.
The Imperial House Protectors were in a hurry. After lunch, they left Chong Ming Town and went outside the town to look for the scene of Chu Li's fight.
When they returned in the evening, they came to Iron Eagle Island with gloomy faces.
Siao Tieying stood at the entrance of the hall and fist saluted. After sitting down, he took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "Have you found the place?"
"We met someone. He said he saw Chu Li kill Brother Zhao with his own eyes!" Song Siwen put down his teacup and said calmly.
Siao Tieying frowned. His face gradually darkened. "So, you still want to frame Chu Li?"
"There's no other way. That person said it very clearly." Song Siwen said coldly.
Siao Tieying sneered. "I'd like to see who's spouting such nonsense!"
"The person has been sent to the Fairy's Capital." Song Siwen said calmly.
