Chu Li sighed helplessly.
He did not want to get involved at first. It would be troublesome to get involved in the grudges of the martial arts world.
He couldn't just watch the three beauties die in the hands of these two fellows.
He suddenly appeared in front of the three women and drew a circle with his sword.
The hidden weapons in the air rushed into the circle and fell to the ground. This was the Ten Thousand Returning Arrows, which was specialized in breaking hidden weapons.
"Who are you?" The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts stared at Chu Li. They were interrupted at the most exciting moment. If it were not for his Light-body Technique and swordsmanship, they would have torn him apart.
Chu Li did not care about the two of them. He took out pills and stuffed them into the three women's mouths.
The three women were weak. They supported each other to prevent themselves from collapsing. They could not resist Chu Li's pills.
Chu Li patted each of their backs to help the pills dissolve.
The three women felt the pills in their mouths turn into a gust of fresh air. It circulated around their organs and instantly refreshed them.
Chu Li gave them a look and leaped back. He flipped over the wall and disappeared. He came and went like a bird.
The three women understood Chu Li's meaning. They supported each other weakly and stared at the Yao Family's Twin Ghosts angrily. "You poisoned us. How despicable!"
The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts looked at the direction where Chu Li disappeared. They did not know what he was doing. He came and went as if he just wanted to give them the antidote. They were very confident in their poison. Without their antidote, no one could cure them.
Looking at the three delicate women, they once again revealed a strange smile.
The Yao Family's Big Brother scoffed. "Let's just kill them!"
"What a pity. Alright."
The two of them leaped into the air. They stretched out their dark green claws and swooped down on the three women like eagles.
The three women screamed and retreated in a sorry state.
The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts smiled cruelly and excitedly in the air.
The thought of inserting his hands into their delicate bodies, the softness was unparalleled. It was better than any taste. It was intoxicating.
"Ahh-!" The three girls widened their eyes and screamed, but they couldn't move.
"Hehe …" The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts smiled even more. Their claws glowed blue under the moonlight. He grabbed He Binghua's and Sun Lihua's towering breasts.
"Uh …" The Married Couple Ghosts suddenly stopped, and a strange cry came from their throats. They looked down at the swords that were inserted into their chests, and stared at the three women in disbelief.
The three girls twisted their waists, drew their swords, and retreated. It was neat and tidy.
"Chi … …" Three fountains of blood gushed out.
The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts raised their hands with great difficulty. Their black and blue fingers trembled as they pointed at them. Then, they fell to the ground unwillingly.
"Bang! Bang!" The two of them fell down heavily. Motionless.
"You deserve it! Ha! " Sun Lihua giggled as she sheathed her sword with her left hand. "The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts have really become ghosts, haha!"
She laughed delicately. Thinking of the fear she had felt just now and the current outcome, she felt even happier.
He Binghua looked around and gave a fist salute in the direction where Chu Li disappeared. She raised her voice and said, "Thank you for saving me, Master!"
The surroundings were silent. No one answered.
"Senior Martial Sister, isn't that the person we saw in the restaurant?" Sun Lihua asked.
He Binghua nodded lightly.
She recognized Chu Li but felt strange. She couldn't tell that he knew martial arts at all.
The other girl, Zhang Feihua, whispered, "Since this Master doesn't want to show himself, then don't force him."
"Alright, let's go," He Binghua said. "We can't stay here any longer. Let's move out immediately!"
"Alright," Sun Lihua agreed.
The three girls took their bags and left, ignoring the Yao Family's Twin Ghosts.
As soon as they left, Chu Li appeared, shaking his head. His long sword slashed across and two heads rolled down.
The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts were proficient in feigning death. The three girls were careless because the Yao Family's Twin Ghosts were ugly. Their bodies were covered in poison and they avoided them like snakes and scorpions. They didn't check if they were alive or dead.
If the Yao Family's Twin Ghosts did not die this time, they might not be able to escape the next ambush.
He used his sword to pry open the Twin Ghosts' clothes and a few bottles fell from their sleeves. He then picked up the deerskin pouches from their waists and wrapped them in a bag. He was going to bring them back to the Public House for the Herb Courtyard to study.
The Yao Family's Twin Ghosts' poison was very strong. There was something special about it that was worth studying.
—
The next morning, he continued his journey. He galloped on his horse, wanting to return to the Public House earlier to investigate.
He had read all the books in the Wisdom Tower and there were no records of this skill. However, he knew that there was a library in the Public House that was not open to the public.
The horse was like a dragon, its speed was extremely fast.
The horses on the main road were overtaken by it. After a while, they were out of sight. It galloped happily and Chu Li let it be. At this speed, he would be able to reach Chong Ming Town by noon the next day.
At noon, the sun was blazing. Chu Li let the horse slow down and trotted for a while to let it relax and rest for a while. He went into the forest beside the road and wanted to rest in the post house.
When the horse entered the forest, Chu Li was stunned. What a coincidence.
In the post house sat three graceful girls with white veils. They were wearing moon-white gowns that were spotless. They were the three girls from Tai Hua Valley.
They heard the sound of the horse's hooves and turned to look. They saw Chu Li on the horse.
The three girls were stunned and closed fist saluted.
Chu Li sighed in his heart. He closed fist saluted with a smile and jumped off the horse. He let go of the reins and let the horse graze in the forest while he entered the pagoda.
"I have not asked for your name, Master." Holly stood up and closed fist saluted, "Thank you for saving my life last night!"
Chu Li shook his head and smiled, "Chu Li, it was nothing. You are welcome."
Zhang Feihua looked at him and smiled sweetly, "Master Chu Li is young and promising. You must be a disciple of a famous faction?"
Chu Li smiled, "A Scribe of the Yi Public House."
"The Yi Public House?" The three girls' expression changed slightly and looked at each other.
Chu Li predicted their reaction. He smiled and sat on the other side of the pagoda.
The martial arts factions and the Public House were enemies. The Public House's responsibility was to suppress the martial arts factions within their borders and prevent them from breaking the law with their martial arts. This was to help the imperial court to stabilize the world.
In the eyes of the martial arts people, the Public House was the imperial court's dog. They disdained and hated them.
After Chu Li sat down, he did not look at them. He turned to look at the scenery outside the pagoda. His expression was cold and he wanted to keep his distance.
Holly calmed herself down and said, "No matter who you are, Master, you have saved our lives."
Chu Li waved his hand and smiled, "You don't have to be like this. It's better if we don't have anything to do with each other. Last night, I just didn't like those two guys. You don't have to worry about it. Just pretend that nothing happened."
Holly shook her head, "Master Chu Li is too humble."
Sun Lihua scoffed, "Is Master Chu Li looking down on our faction because it's too small?"
Chu Li turned his head and looked at her. He smiled and shook his head.
Sun Lihua pouted, "You are obviously looking down on us!"
Chu Li sighed, "If your master finds out that you befriended the Public House, you will be grounded in the valley and never come out again!"
"Master is not that unreasonable!" Sun Lihua scoffed.
Chu Li smiled and looked at Holly.
Sun Lihua looked at Holly. Holly looked troubled. She pursed her lips and did not speak.
"Sister He?" Sun Lihua looked at her in confusion.
Holly sighed, "Sister Sun Lihua, Master Chu Li is right."
"Although the Public House is despicable, it's not like there are no good people." Sun Lihua was confused, "The Green Hill is a righteous faction. Don't they have bad people?"
Holly said, "I will tell you next time. … Master Chu Li, I can't repay you for saving our lives. If you have any request, as long as it doesn't go against the rules of the martial arts world, I will do my best."
Chu Li smiled, "Don't worry, I won't force you to repay me. Let's pretend we don't know each other."
The three girls were a little embarrassed. Sun Lihua looked at Holly in confusion. Holly had no intention of explaining.
Chu Li felt bored. If they stayed any longer, they would feel uncomfortable. He stood up and closed fist saluted, "Then we shall meet again."
