Pang Shiji and Li Meng kept vomiting blood. Their faces were pale, but their aura was rising rapidly. Their punches and palms became more powerful, but unfortunately, it was not enough against the Regal Sword Energy.
They were still being sent flying, and they were constantly being injured.
After more than a hundred strikes, they were exhausted and their bodies were in pain. Their joints felt like they were dislocated, and they could not muster up any strength. Every punch and palm was forced out with all their might.
Xiao Qi did not plan to stop at all. The Regal Sword Energy had reached 40% completion.
Moreover, the Regal Sword Energy was getting denser. Before their fists and palms could attack, the sword energy had already reached them.
They continued to spin around in the air. The Regal Sword's energy did not come from a single direction but from all directions. They were sent flying back and forth like sandbags as they continued to hover above Chu Li and the others without falling to the ground.
There were puddles of blood on the ground. Xiao Shi's heart tightened as she was afraid that something bad would happen to them.
Pang Shiji and Li Meng had no other thoughts. The Regal Sword Energy was the only thing on their minds. They tried their best to block it. Unfortunately, the Regal Sword Energy was pure and powerful. Their fists and palms could not stop it at all.
They were hit again and again. They were injured and in pain. Their hearts tightened and they felt hopeless.
Chu Li's voice was heard again. "This time, it's the madam's attack. The next time, it'll be your enemy. It's useless even if you kneel and beg for mercy. You can only rely on yourself. You'll die if you give up, but you'll still have a chance to live if you don't."
The two gritted their teeth and used all their strength. They were really fighting with their lives on the line.
Chu Li nodded in satisfaction. Under such circumstances, the Blood Dragon Fruit and Sky Soaring Pill's energy could be fully unleashed without being wasted.
"Bang, bang!" Pang Shiji and Li Meng fell to the ground. They were limp and motionless. Their faces were as pale as a sheet. They could not even move a finger. They had completely used up all their strength.
The front of their clothes were dyed red with blood. When they fell to the ground, they were covered in mud. They were in a sorry state.
Chu Li activated the Life and Death Scripture.
Suddenly, a mighty spiritual energy surged and engulfed them. As they bathed in the spiritual energy, their injuries healed faster.
Chu Li lightly slapped his palm on top of their heads.
The Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture reversed Yin and Yang, combining with the Life and Death Scripture's spiritual energy, multiplying its effects.
The two of them felt that their injuries were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a few breaths, their bodies were as good as new, as if they were not injured, or even better.
Pang Shiji lightly kicked his feet and immediately soared into the air. He hurriedly used his internal energy to land on the ground, but with a 'peng' sound, he sank into the soil up to his feet.
He widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at Chu Li and then at Xiao Qi.
Xiao Qi smiled. "Did your skills improve?"
"Mistress, I don't think it's me anymore!" Pang Shiji was overjoyed.
Li Meng was in a daze.
She sensed her own body and could already feel the surging inner energy. In the past, her inner energy was like a small stream, but now it was like a river. The difference was dozens of times. She could not imagine that she could possess such a deep inner energy.
Chu Li flicked his finger, and with a "pop" sound, Li Meng woke up.
Li Meng looked at him nervously and blankly.
"Don't worry, it's not a temporary increase," Chu Li said.
Li Meng instantly smiled. "Master's Junior, is my cultivation really that powerful?"
"You have to continue cultivating when you go back. Don't slack off!" Chu Li said.
Li Meng looked at the Blood Dragon Tree.
"You can only eat one at a time," Chu Li said. "You'll die if you eat too many!"
Li Meng looked disappointed.
Chu Li said, "This thing is magical, but at the level of your master and I, it's useless to eat it. If you want to catch up to master, you'll have to rely on your own hard work. You can't count on it."
"I see …" Li Meng nodded helplessly.
Chu Li said, "It's already saved you more than ten years of time. Be grateful!"
Li Meng giggled. "Yes, thank you, Master's Junior!"
Pang Shiji was slightly disappointed.
Chu Li gave him a sidelong glance, and he quickly straightened his expression.
Chu Li did not blame the two of them.
It was just human nature. If he were in their shoes, he would be the same. No one could avoid it. Their reaction was the truest as they did not hide their thoughts in front of him.
"Since you're here, stay for two days before going back," Chu Li said to Li Meng.
Li Meng quickly nodded. "Yes!"
Although the Great Light Peak was good, it was not as leisurely as this. She did not have to fight with those old men all day.
Xiao Qi said, "Shiji, accompany Miss Li well. Don't neglect her. You young people have something to say."
"Yes, Master's wife!" Pang Shiji nodded solemnly.
Li Meng gave Pang Shiji a sidelong glance. Since Chu Li was present, she could not say much, so she just gave Xiao Qi a fist salute.
—
Chu Li, Xiao Qi, Xiao Shi, and Xue Ling left, leaving only the two of them.
Pang Shiji said, "Miss Li, where do you want to go? Do you want to take a boat on the lake or go to the gazebo to enjoy the scenery? "
"No need!" Li Meng rolled her eyes at him. "I'm more familiar with this place than you are!"
Pang Shiji smiled. "Since Master's wife has instructed me, of course, I have to treat you well."
"You're really a lucky fellow to be apprenticed to Master's Junior Chu!" Li Meng pouted. "But you're also quite unlucky!"
"How so?" Pang Shiji asked with a smile.
Everyone else envied him for being apprenticed to his master. A brilliant master could produce a brilliant disciple. He had a bright future ahead of him. Moreover, he had his master as his backing, so he was full of confidence.
Li Meng scoffed. "Master's Junior Chu is not a softhearted person. As his disciple, you must be under a lot of pressure."
Pang Shiji gestured for her to sit in the gazebo.
Li Meng did not object. The two of them sat in the gazebo next to them. Pang Shiji personally poured tea for them.
Li Meng said, "I've had a taste of Master's Junior Chu's teachings. It's really hard."
"Master is usually very busy and has no time to teach me. It's always Master's wife who teaches me martial arts." Pang Shiji smiled. "So I don't know if master is strict or not."
"I see …" Li Meng nodded. "That's considered lucky. Madam Chu looks cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She won't be too harsh, unlike Master's Junior Chu …"
At this point, she hurriedly shut her mouth and looked around.
Pang Shiji smiled. "Master won't mind."
"Hmph, he'll definitely hear it. Forget it." Li Meng said.
Pang Shiji asked, "What is the relationship between master and master?"
Li Meng gave him a sidelong glance. "What do you want to know?"
"I've always been curious. Master is a citizen of the Ji Dynasty, while your master is the bishop of the Li Dynasty's Holy Church of Light. Their statuses and identities are very different. How could they be friends? It's really strange."
"You don't know?" Li Meng asked with a smile.
Pang Shiji shook his head.
Li Meng chuckled. "It's fine if you don't know. I didn't even tell you about this. This disciple of yours, hehe!"
Pang Shiji smiled. "Miss Li, do you know?"
"Of course!" Li Meng scoffed. "I'm the only one who knows about this secret. No one else knows!"
Pang Shiji looked envious.
Li Meng smiled. "There's no harm in telling you. Master's Junior Chu has another identity."
