The next day, Hong Xiu went to the House of High Dukes to learn the Nurturing Technique from Xue Ling.
The three of them sat in the gazebo, covered by a white veil.
The breeze was gentle and the white veil fluttered with the wind. When it reached the gazebo, most of it was covered by the veil and it completely lost its sharpness.
"Sister Hong Xiu, I have carefully selected this Eternal Youth Technique. It has the fastest effect." Xue Ling smiled, "Sister Liu, you should learn it too. You can teach it to the sisters in the New Moon Brothel in the future. Master said that your bodies are not good enough and need the Nurturing Technique to recuperate."
"I want to learn too?" Liu smiled, "I dance all day long and my body is very good."
"That's different." Xue Ling shook her head, "Dancing is harmful to the body. You look good but you are strong in appearance but weak in reality. When you get older, you will be sick all over and need the Nurturing Technique even more."
Hong Xiu smiled, "Liu, just learn it. There is no harm."
"Alright, I will learn, I will learn," Liu smiled.
Xue Ling explained the heart technique in detail. The Nurturing Technique was more complicated than the Martial Arts heart technique. It needed to go through all the meridians in the body, unlike the Martial Arts heart technique that only attacked one or two meridians.
Hong Xiu learned for a day. When she returned home in the evening, she saw that her husband had returned early again. He was pacing back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he saw her, Field Officer Zhao immediately came over and said excitedly, "My wife, I heard about the Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique."
"How is it?" Hong Xiu smiled.
She believed in the Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique. She knew her body well and it was indeed a complete transformation.
"It is a secret technique passed down from ancient times and it has been lost!" Field Officer Zhao said excitedly, "This technique can allow ordinary people to build their foundation in one step and save more than ten years of effort. It is really mysterious!"
"So powerful?"
"However, it is extremely dangerous to perform this technique. I am now sweating from the shock. Chief Chu Li is too risky!"
"Come on, he is very relaxed." Hong Xiu smiled, "I think he is just treating it as an ordinary technique and is very confident."
"That is true. Chief Chu Li is indeed extraordinary," Field Officer Zhao sighed.
He was very grateful to Chu Li. How could ordinary people be lucky enough to encounter such a secret technique?
"I have to think of a way to thank him." Hong Xiu muttered. In the end, he shook his head and sighed, "I really can't think of anything. He doesn't lack anything."
"Did you see Chief Chu today?"
Hong Xiu shook her head, "No, he is very busy. He just came back from outside yesterday. I'm travel-worn. "
"The honored one is busy." Field Officer Zhao said, "Indeed, we have to thank Chief Chu properly. Ask Miss Xue Ling about it and cater to her preferences."
"I've asked around. Chief Chu likes good food and enjoys life. But how would the House of High Dukes lack these? "Hong Xiu smiled and said," Forget it. "
"I'll think of something," Colonel Zhao said.
Hong Xiu smiled and did not persuade him anymore.

Time passed unknowingly.
Chu Li was immersed in the formation of the Rising Sun Mountain. Ever since he stepped into the Grandmaster's Boundary, his understanding of this world had become much clearer. His progress in studying the formation was extremely fast. After reading through the formation books that the High Duke's Public House had collected, he had learned something new.
There had been no progress on the Rising Sun Mountain's formation. This formation was strange. If he could understand it, he could set it up directly. With the House of High Dukes' protection, it would be much easier.
Unfortunately, this formation was too profound. It seemed that he had to go to Tai Hua Valley to take a look at the formation there.
In the evening, Xue Ling pushed the door open and came to the gazebo with a smile, "Master, Master Xiao Tieying wants to see you."
"Master Xiao Tieying?" Chu Li raised his head and looked at her.
Xue Ling said, "Master Xiao Tieying's people can't enter the Jade Guardian Island, so they came to the East Garden to find me."
"… I'll go and take a look," Chu Li put down the formation book.
He disappeared in a flash and stood on the small boat in the next moment. The small boat floated and soon arrived at Iron Eagle Island. He saw Siao Tieying in the hall.
Siao Tieying was frowning and thinking. Lin Quan stood behind him motionlessly.
Chu Li came in and closed fist saluted. Siao Tieying got up and beckoned him to sit down and talk.
"Master Xiao Tieying. The method to enter the formation of the Jade Guardian Island … "
"Don't, forget it." Siao Tieying waved his hand and said, "Only you and Xue Ling know. You don't have to tell me. I'm not going."
Chu Li said, "Master, what's bothering you?"
Siao Tieying sighed, "It's the matter of the Huay Public House!"
Chu Li said, "The wedding is in a month, right?"
"Yes," Siao Tieying nodded unhappily.
Chu Li knew why he was like this. He sighed, "Master, don't you want to fight for it?"
Siao Tieying smiled bitterly.
His face was haggard as if he had not slept for a few days. As expected, he had been struggling and contradicting himself, unable to make a decision.
Chu Li said, "Master, are you going to watch them get married?"
"What else can we do?" Siao Tieying sighed, "We really can't compare to the Ren Public House. No wonder we chose them!"
Chu Li scoffed, "We are weak now but it doesn't mean we will be weak in the future!"
"The Huay Public House only looks at the present," Siao Tieying sighed.
Chu Li said, "Master, I'm already in the Grandmaster's Boundary."
"Yes," Siao Tieying responded casually. He suddenly reacted and stared at Chu Li, "Hmm –?"
Chu Li smiled and said, "Congratulations, Master. We have another Grandmaster in our Public House!"
"You really entered the Grandmaster's Boundary?" Siao Tieying was in disbelief.
Chu Li waved his sleeves and the curtain flew up from ten meters away.
"How did you … how did you …" Siao Tieying was stunned.
To enter the Grandmaster's Boundary, one needed to comprehend the Surpassing State and truly achieve the Oneness of Heaven and Man. Chu Li would enter the Amethyst Mountain in the future. This was already arranged.
However, the people at the Amethyst Mountain were in isolation and had to wait for a while. Chu Li had no chance to enter the Surpassing State. Logically, no matter how deep he cultivated, he would not be able to step into the Grandmaster's Boundary.
Chu Li said, "I studied formations and comprehended heaven and earth. I unknowingly entered the Grandmaster's Boundary."
He decided not to mention the Rising Sun Faction to anyone.
"Formations have such an effect …" Siao Tieying sighed.
However, it was useless to know. Cultivating formations was not much easier than becoming an Enlightened Master. There were only a few Formation Masters in the world.
Chu Li said, "Master, you really don't want to fight?"
He saw Siao Tieying's unwillingness and pain.
Siao Tieying sighed, "Of course I want to fight, but I can't do anything. The Ren Public House should be guarding against us and the Huay Public House will also be guarding against us. We are far from the power of the two Public Houses. It's futile!"
"Even if we can't fight, it's better than not fighting at all." Chu Li said, "In case I regret it for the rest of my life!"
"… Chu Li, what's your idea?"
Chu Li said, "If we can get accurate information on which path she will take, I will set up a formation. It won't be that difficult to snatch her away."
Siao Tieying clenched his fist.
"I believe that Yu Ning will spread the news." Siao Tieying said slowly, "If you set up a formation, coupled with your Light-body Technique, there's a high chance!"
Chu Li smiled.
He did not have that much confidence. He was just doing his best and leaving the rest to fate.
He had experienced Lu Yurong's power before. She was a Grandmaster. She could hide her Grandmaster's Boundary. This kind of forbearance was not something an ordinary person could achieve. He did not know what other tricks she had hidden.
Even if the Lady of Huay Public House spread the news, it might not be true. Lu Yurong might even hide it from her.
"Master, you better set up a formation." Chu Li pondered and said, "Let the Grandmasters take action. Let the two Public Houses believe that we are unable to snatch the bride."
"Then I'll go meet a friend." Siao Tieying smiled and said, "I'll bring Elder Zhao and the others."
"That's the best." Chu Li nodded and said, "This time, I'll do it myself. The others will act as a smokescreen. Only then will there be hope."
"Chu Li, you're really brave." Siao Tieying smiled.
If this matter went wrong, all the responsibility would be on him. Siao Tieying's anger and complaints would inevitably fall on him. If it was Elder Zhao and the others, they would have already pushed the blame away.
