Chu Li dodged and dodged Qin Zhao's punch. He pulled out his sword and turned around to stab him.
"Tsk!" Qin Zhao's eyes widened as he looked at the sword that pierced his heart.
Chu Li pulled out his sword and retreated. He looked at the two Celestial Men calmly.
Zhu Ziyou and Qin Zhao stared at Chu Li in disbelief. They felt like they were hallucinating.
Although they wanted to kill Qiao San, they did it to warn Chu Li that martial arts were the most important. Chu Li's martial arts were weak, so he had to listen to them. Otherwise, Qiao San would be an example. Hence, they did not take Chu Li seriously.
Chu Li suppressed his cultivation level. The Crouching Bull Mountain disciples felt that he was unfathomable. However, the two Celestial Men did not think that he was a threat. They could take him down or even kill him.
That was because they did not take Chu Li seriously. They thought that a warning would make Chu Li realize the reality and listen to them.
If Qiao San was not good at escaping, he would have been killed.
To them, Qiao San was just a servant. Killing him was the best way to warn Chu Li.
They did not think that Chu Li could threaten their strength. They did not think that Chu Li would dare to kill them.
They were not the only ones. No one thought that Chu Li would kill them. His swordsmanship was so good.
"You … you …" Qin Zhao pointed at him. "What swordsmanship is that?"
Chu Li said calmly, "Cloud Slashing Divine Sword."
"Great swordsmanship!" Qin Zhao forced a smile.
"Zhuge Tian, you're definitely going to die!" Zhu Ziyou held his chest and growled.
Chu Li pushed the sword forward.
A cold light flashed and the tip of the sword appeared at Zhu Ziyou's throat.
Zhu Ziyou held his throat and stared at him. He wanted to eat him alive.
Chu Li said calmly, "I am the young master of Crouching Bull Mountain. You two have no right to tell me what to do or threaten me. Go back to where you belong!"
He pulled out his sword.
"Tsk!" Blood shot at him like an arrow.
He moved sideways and dodged it. He looked at the two Celestial Men as their bodies lit up. They turned into two balls of light and shot into the sky.
A huge and vast Heavenly Gate appeared indistinctly on the horizon.
The Gate of Heaven slowly opened. Zhu Ziyou and Qin Zhao arrived in front of the Gate of Heaven. They turned their heads to look back, still filled with resentment and unwillingness. Then they entered the Gate of Heaven.
The Gate of Heaven slowly closed and gradually disappeared into the clouds.
Everyone let out a long sigh of relief before glaring at Chu Li.
Things had developed so quickly that they could not react in time. Now, they suddenly realized that the two seniors of the Crouching Bull Mountain had been killed by the young lord and had been sent back to the Outland!
"Young Master!" Huang Tao shook his head helplessly. "You're in big trouble!"
Duan Tianya nodded and looked at Chu Li with a complicated expression.
He felt that if he were in Crouching Bull Mountain's shoes, he would not have the guts to kill the two seniors of the Crouching Bull Mountain. After they arrived, they guided everyone in their cultivation and everyone benefited greatly. They were like their teachers.
Yet, the Young Master dared to risk universal condemnation and kill him. He really needed extraordinary courage.
Everyone glared at Chu Li in dissatisfaction.
Chu Li said faintly, "They want to replace me as the Young Lord, saying that I'm not fit to be the Young Lord of Crouching Bull Mountain."
Everyone nodded and then shook their heads.
Although the Young Lord's morals were lacking, he had turned over a new leaf and had turned over a new leaf. He had also contributed greatly to the strength of the Crouching Bull Mountain. Without the Young Lord's forceful promotion, everyone would not have the chance to cultivate the Crouching Bull Insight and there would not be such a powerful Crouching Bull Mountain.
Chu Li said, "They did contribute to the Crouching Bull Mountain, but they did not have good intentions. Everyone will naturally understand in the future."
"Young Master, why did the two seniors not have good intentions?" Someone asked.
Chu Li said faintly, "Why did the Celestials descend?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Chu Li said calmly, "I came back from the outside world and know the true nature of the Celestials. The Outland is fighting with the Asura Boundary and needs a lot of manpower, so the Celestials descended to recruit more people to the Outland to help."
Everyone was excited. This was a secret that involved the Outland.
Chu Li said, "The Outland has relaxed the restrictions on ascension. As long as one reaches the Grandmaster's Boundary, they can enter the Outland after death. Therefore, the Celestials want to increase the number of Grandmasters as much as possible and then let them die and ascend."
"It's a rare opportunity to enter the Outland," someone said.
In the past, Grandmasters might not even have the chance to enter the Outland. It was a legendary existence, a place that everyone dreamed of.
Chu Li chuckled. "Do you think meat pies will fall from the sky? Why did the Outland relax the requirements for entry? That's because we need the people of our realm to be the vanguard and the meat shields. Everyone, you must understand that if you die in battle in the Sky Beyond Heavens, your body and soul may be destroyed. … You may be free and unfettered in our realm, but once you reach the Sky Beyond Heavens, you will be at the bottom of society. Anyone can kill you!
"There's still a chance, right?" Someone asked.
Chu Li scoffed. "Naive!"
Everyone looked like they were in deep thought.
Chu Li said faintly, "Did they mention if the Crouching Bull Mountain still has a faction in the Outland?"
"Yes," everyone said.
Chu Li said, "Then the Grandmasters are the lowest disciples. They have to start from scratch. They can't even cultivate the Outland's Antique Study before they're sent to the battlefield. They're the first batch of people to be sacrificed."
Everyone frowned.
Duan Tianya said, "They can't be that short-sighted, right?"
"They don't lack Grandmasters like us. If they lose a batch, they'll go down to the mortal realm to recruit more. Those Celestials who are successful in cultivation are more precious! … Anyway, it's not a good thing to go up there. Just remember this. Otherwise, I would've gone up there long ago. With my luck, why would I worry about not being able to make it out? "Chu Li said faintly.
Everyone nodded slowly.
The Young Lord was extremely lucky. Otherwise, he would not have a fortuitous encounter to cultivate such a sword technique. He also had a high level of comprehension to be able to cultivate it to such a level. In that case, it was indeed suitable for him to go to the Outland. In the end, he did not go up there. Perhaps it was as he said.
If the Young Lord did not dare to go up there, it was even more impossible for them.
Chu Li glanced at everyone and waved his hand. "Go and cultivate!"
Before the crowd dispersed, there were hurried footsteps coming from outside.
Xia Liyan and Murong Chun strode into the courtyard and saw that everyone was there. They glanced around but did not see Zhu Ziyou and Qin Zhao. They frowned.
Chu Li waved his hand. "Everyone, get out!"
With one look, everyone knew that the situation was not good. They walked out one after another while greeting the two elders.
Murong Chun and Xia Liyan fist saluted as they returned the greeting. They kept staring at Chu Li.
Chu Li waited until everyone left before he said, "Elders, did you hear the news?"
"Did you really kill the two elders?" Murong Chun quickly asked.
Chu Li nodded. "They wanted to kill Qiao San again. Qiao San escaped again, or else he would've died twice!"
"But …" Murong Chun opened his mouth but could not say anything.
Chu Li said calmly, "They wanted to replace me, so I can only replace them!"
"Sigh …" Xia Liyan shook his head.
Murong Chun said, "We're indebted to them."
"So what!" Chu Li said faintly. "How can we keep them alive if they want to repay their kindness and have ulterior motives? They're too greedy! "
"Sigh …" Murong Chun sighed helplessly.
They had already been killed. It was too late to say anything now. They could only wait for the hill master to return.
