Chu Li acted as if he did not hear him. He shook his head and sighed. "With this bottle of Life Extension Pills, I can live for another hundred years. I owe him too much. It's a shame …"
He shook his head and said, "He's in a high position and has a firm will. He's wary of everyone. This old man's words were in vain. What a pity!"
"Island Master's martial arts is almost invincible. No one dares to provoke him. Will there still be a disaster?" Meng Yu asked.
Chu Li looked at him with a faint smile. "So what if he's invincible? Not everything can be solved with martial arts."
"That's true." Meng Yu nodded. "You're right. Martial arts isn't omnipotent. There are many things that can't be solved."
Chu Li sighed and shook his head. "It's time for me to leave."
"Leave?" Meng Yu was stunned.
Chu Li nodded. "My wish has been fulfilled. I'll be content to find a place to live freely for a hundred years."
"The Life Extension Pill is not the only thing that can prolong one's life." Meng Yu smiled. "Do you only want to live for a hundred years and not longer?"
Chu Li smiled. "It's enough to live for a hundred years. I'll die sooner if I'm greedy. I appreciate Young Master Meng's kindness, but I can't stay any longer."
Meng Yu's face darkened.
He had promised to stay by his side but now he went back on his words.
He knew that Meng Yu must think that Chu Li was too stingy. He wanted to get the Life Extension Pills from Chu Li but now that he had nothing to pursue, he did not want to be trapped by Chu Li's side and wanted to live freely.
Meng Yu's heart was filled with killing intent but he kept a smile on his face. "Where do you want to go then?"
Chu Li said, "I'll leave this troublesome place first. I'll wander the world and go wherever I go."
"Haha, you're so carefree." Meng Yu shook his head. "I want to be as carefree as you too. Unfortunately, I have responsibilities and can't do anything else."
Chu Li smiled. "Young people are ambitious. How can they be compared to an old man like me? I can't stay any longer. I'll leave now. There's no need for Island Master to send me off."
"Since you've read my fortune for me, you should send me off." Meng Yu smiled. "Or else I won't be able to leave the Governor's Residence."
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Chu Li pretended not to notice his killing intent and followed Meng Yu out.
After the two of them left the Castellan's Residence, Chu Li gestured for Meng Yu to stop and told him to walk slowly.
"Send Old Sir out of the city," Meng Yu said with a smile. "Otherwise, it won't be so easy to get out of the city gates. Right now, it's easy to get in, but hard to get out."
"Alright." Chu Li nodded.
The two of them slowly walked along the main road in the city, not saying a word.
After a while, Chu Li slowly said, "Before I leave, I'd like to say one more thing, so that our acquaintance isn't in vain."
"Sir, please speak," Meng Yu hurriedly said.
Chu Li sighed. "The further away from Island Master Wan, the better."
"… Understood." Meng Yu nodded with a smile.
Chu Li said, "Although fate is unpredictable and hard to change, I still want to change it. It depends on whether you're willing to listen to me, Island Master."
"I will quickly distance myself from Island Master Wan," said Meng Yu.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, there was no harm in distancing himself from Wan Ziyang. If he got too close to him, it would be inappropriate. Moreover, staying in front of Wan Ziyang was really oppressive and painful. It was better to stay far away from him and let the birds fly freely.
Chu Li nodded lightly. "Be fast, as fast as you can."
As the two of them spoke, they had already left the city gates and arrived at the main road outside the city. On both sides of the road were dense forests, lush and full of life.
Due to the control, it was easy to get in but hard to get out. Therefore, almost no one left the city, and the main road was extremely quiet.
Chu Li saw that Meng Yu was filled with murderous intent and was about to make a move. He quickly said, "There's another problem, I don't know if I should say it."
"Just say it." Meng Yu slowed down the inner energy he was circulating and suppressed his murderous intent.
Chu Li said, "Did you manage to save the lady?"
Meng Yu nodded lightly. "She was indeed poisoned. Fortunately, it was discovered in time, or else she would have died. Thank you very much, Sir."
Even though he was grateful to Chu Li, his murderous intent was even more intense. He could not allow such a person to live. He could either serve him or die. If he really lived, his weakness would fall into the hands of others.
A man must be cruel and merciless in order to succeed. A woman's benevolence would eventually be taken advantage of by others, and she would die without a burial place.
Chu Li sighed. "She's facing many difficulties. Even if she managed to escape this time, she might not be able to escape the next time."
"She'll still face difficulties?" Meng Yu frowned.
Chu Li nodded. "She's not like you. She won't have such a good life."
As they spoke, a black shadow suddenly flashed by, and a palm landed lightly on Meng Yu's back.
This black shadow was too fast, and his face could not be seen clearly. The palm energy was silent and did not carry a trace of smoke or fire, so it was unavoidable.
"Bang!" In a thunderous sound, Meng Yu's protective silver vigor flashed and disappeared, shooting into the forest beside him.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …" The black shadow chased after Meng Yu, unwilling to let him go.
Chu Li stood outside with a stunned expression. He did not move an inch, but he was already observing the situation of the two people in his mind.
Meng Yu's vigor was silver in color and shone with a silver light. It recovered immediately after being broken, and kept blocking the black shadow's palm energy. Moreover, his body movement technique was amazing and unpredictable.
The black shadow could not kill him at that moment. Although the palm energy could hit him, it was not a solid hit. After being blocked by the strange vigor, the force was reduced by fifty to sixty percent. Although the remaining forty to fifty percent of the palm energy injured him, it was not fatal.
After suffering a few palm attacks and spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, Meng Yu suddenly crushed a jade pendant and disappeared without a trace.
The black shadow stopped and revealed a short, stocky figure, appearing in front of Chu Li.
Chu Li fist saluted. "Island Master, do you believe my words now?"
"Crack." A series of crisp sounds could be heard. The stocky figure suddenly elongated and became tall and sturdy. He wiped his face with his hand and revealed Wan Ziyang's appearance, which made Chu Li shudder.
He had the ability to change his appearance, but so did Wan Ziyang!
With Wan Ziyang's cultivation level and ability, there was really no place in the world that he could not go. For him to be able to cultivate to this stage, this ability must have helped him a lot.
Wan Ziyang frowned. "I didn't expect Little Meng to be so slippery!"
Chu Li said, "Young Master Meng has had many fortuitous encounters. He has many treasures on him that are impossible to guard against. This time, he was focused on escaping, but the next time he wants to hurt you, he might use other treasures."
"I have underestimated him!" Wan Ziyang scoffed.
Chu Li said calmly, "He's very difficult to kill. He's destined to become a big problem for you, Island Master!"
Wan Ziyang said, "Although Little Meng is slippery, it's an exaggeration to say that he'll become a big problem for me. He won't be able to escape so easily next time."
Chu Li shook his head. "Every time he suffers a setback, he encounters a fortuitous encounter and becomes stronger. Island Master, you can't do anything to him now, and it'll be the same next time. After a few times, the situation will be reversed."
Wan Ziyang chuckled. "I didn't even use ten percent of my abilities today. You, on the other hand, were almost killed by Little Meng."
Chu Li sighed. "This is also because I told you the truth. He really has the heart of a tiger and a wolf, but he's much worse than you, Island Master."
"I'm not a good person either." Wan Ziyang laughed.
Chu Li said, "At least you repay kindness with kindness, unlike Island Master Meng who returns kindness with enmity!"
"I've just seen through Little Meng's character. Time reveals a man's heart." Wan Ziyang sighed emotionally.
