Chu Li returned a fist salute.
To be able to restrain his anger and resentment, this Deng Lu was quite shrewd.
When Deng Lu turned around, the elder who seemed to be invisible suddenly charged at Chu Li and slammed his palm down. It was sudden and fierce, but his palm was like a treasured knife that could split Mount Hua.
The elder concealed his aura and stood behind Deng Lu, almost invisible, so no one would notice him. At this moment, he suddenly attacked. It was sudden and fast, and his right palm reached Chu Li's head in an instant.
Chu Li squinted his eyes and raised his hand to block.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, the elder flew out and spat out a mouthful of blood in the air. It was as if all the strength in his body had been lost along with this mouthful of blood, and his entire body seemed to have shrunk.
"Bang!" He fell solidly on a stone wall and hung there like a painting. His body was limp and unable to move, and he could only stare at Chu Li with wide eyes.
Chu Li shook his head and turned to look at Deng Lu. "Young Master Deng, this is …?"
Deng Lu's face darkened, and he glared at the elder. "Uncle Jing, how can you mess around?!"
"Young Master …" Just as the elder opened his mouth to speak, blood suddenly gushed out of his mouth and blocked it. He immediately coughed hard, and his body trembled, but he had no intention of stopping.
He felt a turbulent power wreaking havoc in his body, constantly destroying and squeezing him as if it wanted to squeeze him into the stone.
He was secretly shocked. He did not expect Chu Li to have such a powerful cultivation level. As a Rank One Celestial, he could not fight back at all and was beaten up so badly. He might not be able to keep his cultivation level.
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "Looks like Uncle Jing has some misunderstanding about me. Young Master Deng, I'm sorry."
"Sigh …" Deng Lu shook his head. "I should apologize for not disciplining him properly. I did not expect this to happen, and I'm really ashamed! Young Master Chu, Miss Sun, please excuse me! "
Sun Mingyue said coldly, "The rules of Spirit Wonder Mountain are strict. I did not expect something like this to happen! I hope this Scribe of yours doesn't become arrogant. A Scribe like this is unacceptable no matter how strong he is! "
"Yes, yes." Deng Lu nodded with a smile. "I will punish him when I return. The rules of Spirit Wonder Mountain cannot be broken. Young Master Chu, I'm sorry!"
He apologized sincerely and bowed deeply to Chu Li.
Chu Li waved his hand. "It's alright. I hope Young Master Deng won't be offended. I was a little hasty in my attack and may have lost my sense of propriety. I've hurt your Scribe, Young Master Deng. I hope Young Master Deng won't blame me."
"How is that possible?" Deng Lu chuckled, "I don't have the face to stay here any longer. Miss Sun, Young Master Chu, farewell!"
Chu Li gave a fist salute and nodded with a smile.
Sun Mingyue looked at him coldly and turned her head away.
She was smart and had a high position. She had seen all kinds of cunning people, so she saw through Deng Lu's trick at a glance.
If the Scribe's sneak attack was successful and severely injured Chu Li, Deng Lu might take the opportunity to kill Chu Li. If the sneak attack was unsuccessful, Deng Lu would immediately apologize and stop killing Chu Li.
In this way, they had also tested Chu Li's limits. Next time, they would be able to target him more precisely.
Killing two birds with one stone, advancing and retreating at the same time. It was truly a good move.
Deng Lu glided diagonally and floated up like a cloud. He arrived in front of the Elder and placed his hand on his wrist. He wanted to heal him and take him away at the same time so that he would not be hung on the stone wall and embarrass himself.
Uncle Jing hung on the stone wall as if he was being slapped in the face. He no longer had any face in front of Sun Mingyue. Moreover, looking at Sun Mingyue's expression, she was also an extremely intelligent woman who had seen through his tricks.
If he could take the opportunity to kill Chu Li, then it was nothing to be embarrassed about. However, he could not defeat Chu Li and was beaten to a pulp instead. It was indeed extremely embarrassing.
"Bang!" Deng Lu's palm was bounced off by an invisible force. His expression changed slightly.
He frowned and looked at the Elder. The Elder's face was ashen and he was barely breathing. In just a short while, he was about to breathe his last. He had turned from a Peerless Master into a frail old man like a candle in the wind.
He floated in the air and once again reached out to help the Elder. However, as soon as his hand touched the Elder's wrist, it was bounced off by an invisible and tyrannical force. He could not touch the Elder's wrist, nor could he transfer inner energy into it.
"Uncle Jing?" His expression was solemn as he stared at the Elder.
The Elder struggled to force a smile. He was already speechless and only glanced at Chu Li.
Deng Lu did not want to beg Chu Li. Suddenly, he quickly struck several palms. Several palm energies flew towards the Elder's chest to seal his acupuncture points so that he would not vomit blood again. However, the palm energies were turned into nothingness by the invisible force.
Sun Mingyue saw that something was amiss. She pursed her lips and smiled as she looked at Chu Li.
She had long known that Chu Li was not someone who would swallow humiliation and suffer losses. How could he let go of the sneak attack so easily? He would definitely punish him ruthlessly. It seemed that it was already effective.
She could sense that the Elder's vitality was rapidly fading away. His energy was flowing away like a flood from a breached dam.
If this went on, the Elder would die in less than a quarter of an hour.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!" Deng Lu pursed his womanly red lips and frowned. He struck the Elder several times with an angry expression, producing a series of muffled sounds. The Elder trembled a few times, but his back was still unable to leave the stone wall.
Moreover, after these few strikes, the Elder's mouth was bleeding even more. His aura was rapidly declining.
He suddenly stopped and turned his head to do a fist salute. "Young Master Chu …?"
Chu Li smiled. "Young Master Deng, we'll have to take our leave first. This Scribe's injury is not serious. He will recover after a few days of rest. His martial arts might have regressed a little, but he can slowly cultivate it back."
As he spoke, he was about to leave.
"Wait, Young Master Chu!" Deng Lu hurriedly appeared in front of Chu Li and Sun Mingyue. He gave a fist salute and said, "I hope that Young Master Chu will be magnanimous and spare him this time. Don't bother with a Scribe!"
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. "I was a little heavy-handed, but it's alright. He won't die. The spirit pills of Mount Spirit Wonder are also top-notch. He will definitely be saved. As for his martial arts, he can recover as well."
Deng Lu smiled bitterly. "I hope that Young Master Chu will save him."
He cursed in his heart. Looking at Uncle Jing's condition, he was about to die. Chu Li was still lying through his teeth, saying that he would not die. Even if he did die, Chu Li would only say that it was a small mistake, as if Uncle Jing's life was insignificant.
Uncle Jing had grown up with him. Although they were master and servant, they were family. How could he watch him die?
Chu Li sighed. "This …"
Sun Mingyue scoffed. "Young Master Deng, if it was someone else who ambushed you and wanted to kill you, would you agree to save this person? No matter how strong your Mount Spirit Wonder is, you can't make things difficult for others like this, right? "
"Uncle Jing's sneak attack was indeed wrong. Young Master Chu, do you need spirit pills?" Deng Lu knew that it was useless to say anything more. He had to show his sincerity to save Uncle Jing's life.
Looking at Uncle Jing's state, he could not get close at all. Chu Li's heart technique was too vicious. His inner energy was constantly destroying Uncle Jing's body. If he did not undo this inner energy, the spirit pills would be useless no matter how good they were. They would not be able to save Uncle Jing's life.
Chu Li smiled. "I took in a disciple who needs a Star Stone to calm his mind. Unfortunately, it's a treasure from the Outland. I couldn't find it anywhere."
"Star Stone?" Deng Lu's long and slender eyebrows twitched. He said slowly, "Alright, one Star Stone it is!"
He took out a colorful rope from his inner pocket. At the end of the rope was a Star Stone the size of a longan. It shone with a deep blue light. It was purer and more dazzling than the Star Stones he had seen before.
Deng Lu broke the colorful rope and tossed the Star Stone to Chu Li. "Young Master Chu, what do you think?"
Chu Li reached out and caught it. He chuckled. "Thank you, Young Master Deng. I will remember this favor."
As he spoke, he gently flicked his sleeve.
