Seeing the four of them teaming up against Lu Yurong, the white veil covering Lu Yurong's face was dyed red with blood and her eyes were dull. The Elusive Ninth Heaven Fairy above her head was also dull as if it would disappear at any time. Chu Li was furious.
He used the Omniscient Mirror and suppressed his anger. He was not in a hurry to act but observed carefully first.
The four Celestial Beings all had a blood-red moon above their heads.
The blood moon was absorbing spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth crazily. It could even directly absorb spiritual energy from the Outland and continuously send it into their bodies to maintain their violent attacks. Lu Yurong's Elusive Ninth Heaven Fairy was also absorbing spiritual energy but under the dull light, the absorption speed was far slower than the blood moon.
The spiritual energy absorbed by the blood moon seemed to be extremely violent, causing the four Celestial Beings to become fearless. They attacked desperately, disregarding their own injuries.
Lu Yurong originally injured them and had the upper hand, but she was suppressed to the point where she could not breathe and her life was in danger.
Chu Li shook his head.
Lu Yurong had obviously used a secret skill and was in a state of collapse. She would not be able to hold on soon. If it was someone else, they would have been seriously injured or even dead. She was completely relying on her wisdom to struggle and buy time.
Chu Li's killing intent rose. The God Punishing Thunder Sword in his mind instantly turned into dozens of God Punishing Needles and shot towards the thirty-six Grandmasters who invaded the Ren Public House.
"Ah!" Those who were attacking suddenly screamed and then fell to the ground, holding their heads and rolling.
Some were strong enough to hold back their screams but still held their heads and rolled. The pain had exceeded their endurance limit and they could not control their bodies.
This time, Chu Li did not show up directly but hid in the dark. The feeling of hiding in the dark and plotting against others was very exciting.
Lu Yurong only felt an invisible force surging into her body. After it entered her body, it immediately turned into her own strength. Her originally empty body was instantly filled to the brim, and her skills were restored to their original state. In fact, it was even continuously increasing, and she immediately felt refreshed.
She immediately knew that Chu Li had come and her heart could not help but calm down.
"Bam bam bam bam …" She felt stronger than before. When she hit with her palm, the power was twice as strong as before.
She gritted her teeth and used the secret skill again.
The Mysterious Fairy of the Nine Heavens in the void above his head began to become clear. Spiritual Qi surged down like a river. Even if an ordinary person looked carefully, they would be able to vaguely see a shadow.
The influx of this inner force not only strengthened her inner force, but it also nourished her spirit and restored its vigor. Only then could she perform the secret skill for the second time and exert the Empyrean Fairy Power to its fullest potential.
Chu Li frowned as he looked at the maids who were fending off the other Grandmasters. If they did not leave Lu Yurong's side and the ten of them worked together, these four Celestial Beings would not be able to do anything to Lu Yurong.
However, Chu Li could also guess that Lu Yurong could only do this. She had no other choice. The Protectors of the Ren Public House could not stop the thirty-six invading Grandmasters, so she could only send out her maids.
Chu Li suppressed his anger and only helped them secretly.
Lu Yurong continued to wave her palms, once again suppressing the four Celestial Beings. Even though they risked their lives to fight, in front of absolute power, they were beaten back again and again, unable to pose any threat to Lu Yurong.
Lu Yurong suddenly shouted, the Empyrean Fairy Palm suddenly became illusory, turned into several shadows and shot at the four Celestial Beings at the same time.
Their eyes were bloodshot as they fought with their lives. Facing this palm shadow, they did not hesitate to take it head-on. Then, with a "bang bang" sound, they were shaken and spat out blood in the air.
Chu Li shook his head.
These Celestial Beings were quite strange. The blood moon above their heads was definitely problematic, it could affect their minds, or else these four Celestial Beings would not be so reckless. However, their strength was indeed extremely strong.
Lu Yurong cultivated in Goddess Attraction Mountain and even took the Sky Soaring Pill. Her cultivation level was not something a Grandmaster could compare to. Although she was not as good as an Enlightened Master, she was only a step away. These four Celestial Beings were able to force her into this state, it was very impressive.
"Bang bang bang bang …" Lu Yurong did not let them go. Her body moved like lightning, chasing after the four Celestial Beings to beat them.
In the end, the four Celestial Beings turned into four rays of light and shot into the sky, entering the slowly appearing Divine Gate, and then the Divine Gate disappeared.
Lu Yurong's body was like a shadow, quickly passing through the entire Ren Public House, killing the thirty-six Grandmasters one by one, not leaving a single one alive. Her ruthlessness did not lose to Chu Li's.
Chu Li watched from the side. These thirty-six Grandmasters had killed many Ren Public House Protectors before he came. At this time, these Protectors of the Ren Public House who were killed were being fed Spirit Blessing Pills.
With the Spirit Blessing Pill, almost all of them could live, but it was also a waste of a Spirit Blessing Pill. One Spirit Blessing Pill was equivalent to one life.
As the relationship between Ren Public House and Yi Public House improved, Yi Public House gave Ren Public House a batch of Spirit Blessing Pills. Almost every Protector was given one, but it was impossible to supply them all the time.
Lu Yurong was even more furious. If it was not for Chu Li's appearance today, Ren Public House would have been destroyed.
After she finished off these Grandmasters in one go, she returned to the pagoda in the backyard and sat down. Chu Li appeared in the pagoda.
"Who are they?" Chu Li sat opposite her.
Lu Yurong's face was pale. She had cast another secret skill. Even though she had taken Spirit Medicine, she still could not hide the feeling of weakness.
Compared to her usual self, she looked lovely and even more pitiful. She did not have her usual peerless beauty.
"Red Moon Sect." Lu Yurong shook her head. "They are the mortal enemy of the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens."
Chu Li frowned. "Once the Celestial descends, dragons and snakes rise from the land!"
"I thought the Red Moon Sect was lost. I didn't expect them to have a successor. Moreover, they are more powerful than the Mysterious Lady of the Nine Heavens." Lu Yurong frowned. "Fortunately, they were taken care of this time."
When Chu Li heard that the future trouble was taken care of, he did not ask anymore and changed the topic. "King Ping and Consort Ping ascended together."
"Consort Ping ascended because of the Red Moon Sect!" Lu Yurong pursed her red lips and scoffed. "I just found out too. She died before she could call for help."
Chu Li nodded.
Dying was just ascending to the Grandmaster's Boundary. It was only a short separation. He did not care much and continued. "Once King Ping died, the throne fell to Xu An."
"Didn't Xu An not want to be the emperor?"
"We can only force him."
"Xu An is really pitiful." Lu Yurong shook her head.
Others only saw the emperor's power, but she knew the emperor's helplessness and hardships.
"There's no other way. He has to suffer for the sake of the people." Chu Li said, "He needs to focus on his cultivation. Second Eldest Sister and my wife will take care of the affairs of the imperial court. Come and help them."
"Me?" Lu Yurong chuckled. "Forget it."
She always felt uneasy in front of Xiao Qi.
Chu Li said, "You can continue to be the commander of the Secret Guardians Hall."
Lu Yurong was about to decline, but she swallowed her words.
If it was any other position, she would not be interested and would not want to be involved in these matters. However, the Secret Guardians Hall was different. It was a place that she had spent a lot of effort on, so she could not bear to abandon it.
Chu Li smiled. "The Secret Guardians Hall is like a group of dragons without a leader. It's now just a decoration. The Secret Guardians Hall will only be able to unleash its greatest power under your leadership. In the future, the other countries might even turn pale at the mention of it!"
"… Alright, I'll take over the Secret Guardians Hall again!" Lu Yurong said.
Chu Li's smile widened. "That's great!"
Lu Yurong said, "Have you thought about whether Xiao Qi and Xiao Shi will offend the courtiers if they get involved in politics?"
Women's status was still far inferior to men. It was also a taboo for women to get involved in politics. The courtiers would never tolerate it.
"I can only think of a way to hide it," Chu Li said.
No matter how strong he was, he could not change the people's view that women should not be involved in politics.
"How can it be hidden?" Lu Yurong shook her head. "A storm is inevitable."
Chu Li slowly nodded with a serious expression.
