The next morning, Lu Yurong came to the Hall of Benevolence, only Lu Yushu was sitting at the table.
Lu Yu Rong sat opposite Lu Yu Shu.
The Hall of Benevolence was where the whole family gathered to eat together.
A red sandalwood round table was placed in the middle of the room, Lu Yu Shu sat by the table, his head lowered in contemplation.
The room was empty.
Lu Yurong was dressed in a moon-white gown, looking refreshing and pleasant. "Where's Big Brother?"
"I'm too excited from my cultivation, I'm not eating anymore." Lu Yushu said in a muffled voice.
He leaned back on the armchair and said lazily, "I heard you were drunk yesterday?"
"You've taken an extra hundred taels of silver this month." Lu Yurong said lightly, "You'll make it up next month."
"I say, lass, don't interrupt!" Lu Yu Shu slammed the table and shouted, "As a young master, can't I take a little more silver to use?"
"I can't," Lu Yurong said lightly.
Lu Yu Shu scoffed, and deflated. "Is there a need for that? He's just a White Shroud Shen Dao, I hate men who wear white the most!"
Lu Yurong raised her voice: "Elder Xi, let them serve the dishes."
"Yes," Xi Wu's voice came from outside.
Lu Yu Shu said, "If it's up to me, we should just kill him right away, it'll be considered a show of strength, this guy is crazy!"
"Establishing dominance?" Lu Yu Rong said lightly, "To kill Du Feng, how many masters do you think we'll need? You've also seen his saber skills. Can Elder Xi and the others win one on one? "
"If one isn't enough, then two, three!" Lu Yu Shu scoffed, "I don't believe that we can't take care of him. If he doesn't give face to the House of High Dukes, then we'll take care of him and intimidate the rascals!"
"You only know how to kill, kill, kill." Lu Yurong shook her head and said disappointedly, "What can you achieve with just killing?"
"That Du fellow isn't the same, he only knows how to kill, kill, kill!" Lu Yu Shu was unconvinced.
"He's killing the wicked and enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens!" Lu Yurong said angrily, "What about you? You kill anyone you don't like just because they're wearing white, isn't that right?"
"Anyway, none of the men in white are good people!" Lu Yu Shu pursed his lips, "Killing them is the right thing to do! … Don't tell me you've fallen for this White Shroud Shendao? "
"What do you think?" Lu Yurong said.
Lu Yu Shu sighed. "That's true, you like women."
"Who said I like women?" Lu Yurong rolled her eyes at him. "Don't spout nonsense!"
Lu Yu Shu said, "I see that you prefer to be with women."
"I don't like women, and I don't like men either. Love affairs are too boring and will only delay the proper business! "
"You …" Lu Yu Shu shook his head, "You're too ambitious!"
"Second Brother, if you're useful, I won't have to work hard!" Lu Yurong scoffed.
Lu Yu Shu said, "If you don't like him, then why do you treat him so well? There's no need! "
Lu Yurong sighed. His tone was gentle as he said earnestly, "Our House of High Dukes is powerful. If we want people to be loyal to us, we must use kindness and sincerity to move people."
Lu Yu Shu pursed his lips.
"Make friends. One more friend means one more path. You're good, you're cutting yourself off from others! … Forget it, there's no point in telling you all this. Next month, a hundred taels will be deducted … If you provoke Mister Du, don't even think about leaving the residence next month! "
"Who's the older brother and who's the younger sister!" Lu Yu Shu yelled angrily.
A few maids came in and laid out ten dishes and two bowls of soup.
Lu Yurong ignored him, took the silver chopsticks and started to eat. Her movements were elegant.
Lu Yu Shu quickly shut up. He had to maintain his reputation in front of the maids. A man's reputation was important.
This younger sister was too smart. He originally wanted to teach Du a lesson, or even kill him. But he was seen through, so he could only give up.
Xi Wu suddenly came in and handed over a letter, "My Lady, Mister Du sent someone to deliver this!"
Lu Yurong was stunned.
Xi Wu opened it and shook it. He passed it to Lu Yurong after confirming that there was nothing strange.
Lu Yurong glanced at it and quickly put down the silver chopsticks, "Mister Du is leaving, I have to send him off. Old Xi, prepare the horse! "
"Yes," Xi Wu responded and hurried out.
"Du is leaving?" Lu Yu Shu laughed, "He's quite sensible!"
Lu Yurong glared at him and turned to leave.
Xi Wu had already prepared two handsome red horses outside the residence and a moon white cloak in his hand.
As soon as Lu Yurong came out, Xi Wu handed her the cloak and mounted the horse.
"Go!" The two horses rushed to the main street.
Lu Yurong wore a white veil. She followed closely behind Xi Wu and galloped on the horse. Her cloak fluttered and she looked valiant.
Xi Wu stretched out his palm from time to time and the pedestrians in front who could not avoid in time were smoothly pushed out. They went out of the town unimpeded.

Chu Li asked someone to send a letter to the House of High Dukes and left the inn. He walked out of the town.
He felt that there was no benefit in staying here. It was better to leave early to avoid endless trouble in the future.
As an enemy, if he could not concentrate on dealing with the other party, he would be asking for trouble.
He investigated the situation of the Huay Public House last night and it was shocking. There were fourteen Grandmasters in the Ren Public House. Lu Yurong was too good at forbearance. She had one trump card after another.
He saw many people from the martial arts world in the inn, eyeing him covetously.
They had prepared a way to poison him. If the poison failed, they would kill him and force him to make a move.
If he made a move, the House of High Dukes would have to make a move.
They would rather sacrifice themselves to force the House of High Dukes to deal with him.
Chu Li had killed too many people. These people would inevitably have brothers and sisters or master and apprentices. Even if they could not kill him, they would use the House of High Dukes to make him shed a layer of skin.
Chu Li thought about it and felt that his hands and feet were tied in Green Mountain Town. It was better to leave.
As he walked, he pondered and looked around. There were people following him and they did not come with good intentions.
His pace was calm and he did not use his Light-body Technique. He unknowingly walked two miles.
"Mister Du!" The sound of horse's hooves came from afar and Lu Yurong's mellow and moving voice followed.
Chu Li turned his head and saw two horses carrying Lu Yurong and Xi Wu galloping over.
The white cloak fluttered in the wind. The horses were like dragons and the people were like jade.
When they came near, Lu Yurong leaped off the horse and stared at him, "Mister, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Chu Li pointed around and sighed, "It's better to leave."
Lu Yurong's bright eyes swept over and she scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of? Elder Xi!"
"Yes," Xi Wu said in a low voice.
He went into the woods and there were screams and curses coming from inside.
Lu Yurong ignored them and pointed to the pagoda beside the woods, "Let's go in and talk."
The two came to the pagoda.
Xi Wu floated out of the woods and came to the pagoda. He wiped the stone table and stone block.
Lu Yurong sat down gracefully and sighed, "It's only a short while and we have to part ways. Mister Du should stay for a few days!"
"I'll come again next time and stay for a few more days," Chu Li smiled.
"Where are you going?" Lu Yurong said, "Settle down and don't forget to write me a letter!"
"Okay," Chu Li nodded.
Suddenly, another horse galloped over. The rider was an old man in a crane cloak, a Grandmaster.
He carried a wooden box in his hand and came to the pagoda. He opened the wooden box and took out the wine and dishes inside.
Xi Wu poured wine for the two.
"I've prepared a little wine for you to leave!" Lu Yurong lifted the silver cup, raised her sleeve to cover her face and drank it in one gulp.
Chu Li also drank it in one gulp.
The two ate a few mouthfuls of food and drank a glass of wine.
