Chu Li asked, "Did something good happen today?"
"… Yes … Yes." Yang Baoshu's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Siao Shi.
Siao Shi rested her chin on her snow-white hand. Her jade-like face glowed with a gentle luster under the light, as if it was carved out of a piece of white jade. There was a faint blush on her cheeks.
Yang Baoshu could not imagine that such a beautiful person existed in this world!
Siao Shi stared at the chessboard without moving an inch. Her brows were slightly furrowed as if she was annoyed.
Yang Baoshu felt as if his heart was about to melt.
Chu Li asked, "What's the good news?"
"… Oh, oh, I became a small leader in the gang." Yang Baoshu tried his best to avert his gaze, but he still glanced at her from time to time.
He hoped that she would hear his words and look up at him again.
Chu Li found it interesting and said gently, "Not bad. The salary of a small leader is quite high. It's enough for your family to live on. Your mother doesn't have to work anymore."
"Yes." Yang Baoshu smiled.
In the end, she still did not raise her head to look at him.
"It's inevitable that factions will fight each other. Don't rush forward recklessly. Use the Agile Monkey Fist to deal with your opponent," Chu Li said solemnly.
Yang Baoshu forced himself to regain his composure and nodded vigorously. "Yes, Mister."
"It's done!" Xiao Shi let out a long sigh of relief. She gently placed a white chess piece on the board and smiled.
Yang Baoshu's smile was as beautiful as a flower. All he could see was a bright light in front of him, and the sky and earth were suddenly lit up. It was as if it was not nighttime, but a sunny, cloudless morning!
Chu Li was worried that he would not be able to pull himself out of it, so he passed him the plate. "Go ahead."
"… Then I'll take my leave." Yang Baoshu reluctantly turned around and slowly climbed up the ladder. As he climbed up the wall, he turned around to look behind him and realized that Siao Shi was urging Chu Li to make his next move.
He was filled with melancholy and disappointment. He walked down slowly.
"Bang!" "Ouch!"
He forgot to put the ladder back and missed a step, falling to the ground.
"What are you doing!?" Madam Zhou came out to take a look and said unhappily, "Have you lost your soul? The plates are all broken! "
"Mother, I'm fine," Yang Baoshu said.
Madam Zhou grunted, "I know you're fine. The plate broke!"
Chu Li shook his head and laughed.
Xiao Shi asked, "He's your disciple?"
She ignored Yang Baoshu for his own good.
She knew her charm very well, so she spoke to him gently and kindly. That was teasing others, and it might even affect them for the rest of their lives. Indifference was the best way to deal with it.
Chu Li shook his head. "It's rare to find someone with a pure and kind nature. I just gave him a few pointers."
"You just don't think there's enough trouble." Siao Shi stared at the chessboard.
They were people from two different worlds, and their statuses were worlds apart. If they left this place, they would never meet again, so why bother?
Chu Li said, "He's a good seed. With proper nurturing, he might grow into a towering tree."
Qing Yun City was the closest to the Divine Capital. The position was extremely important. Planting a spy here might be of great use in the future.
"He's so dumb, what can he accomplish!" Xiao Shi said.
She admired Chu Li's calmness and wisdom. He did not change his expression in the face of her beauty and remained unmoved. As for those who were scared out of their wits at the sight of her, she looked down on them and did not want to bother with them.
Chu Li shook his head and said, "Time makes the hero, we can't underestimate him."
He usually strolled around leisurely. He knew the whole of Qing Yun City very well, and nothing could be hidden from him.
The Swan Goose Association was inconspicuous in Qing Yun City. They were located in the slums and did not have much to offer. They were a group of poor people who gathered together to prevent others from bullying them.
However, they were well-informed and did not attract attention. They could do many things that others could not.
"Anyway, don't forget what we're here for." Siao Shi stared at the chessboard and said casually.
Chu Li smiled. "We'll change places in a few days."
Siao Shi looked up at him. "You still want to change? It won't be worse than here, right? "
"Are you used to living here? How's it compared to the High Duke's Public House?" Chu Li asked.
"What do you think?" Siao Shi scoffed.
Chu Li smiled. "I don't know what the next place will be like."
Siao Shi said, "I hope you'll get used to it."

Yang Baoshu spoke to Madam Zhou for a while and laid on the bed absent-mindedly. He looked up at the roof beam. His mind was filled with Siao Shi's beautiful face.
He was distracted, and his heart was sweet and melancholic. He tossed and turned, unable to sleep. He got up and opened the window to look at the bright moon in the sky.
Who was she to Mister Chu?
Looking at the way they talked, she seemed to be Mister Chu's wife. Even if she was not his wife, they were very close.
To be able to talk to such a beauty was a great blessing. Mister Chu was able to face her and play chess with her, it was a blessing that he had accumulated in his past life!
Thinking about the situation when they met, he felt even more humble. He could not help but let out a long sigh at the moon. It was the first time in his life that he felt melancholic. He felt lost, but he could not describe it.
He looked at the moon, and as he looked, his heart skipped a beat. A strong impulse was boiling in his chest. This was how a man should be!
Mister Chu was not old, maybe only a few years older than him, but he was a hidden master of the martial arts world. He did not lack money, and he had a beautiful wife.
Looking at himself, they were both human, but why was there such a big difference?!
If he was like Mister Chu, with such a beautiful woman by his side, his life would not be in vain. If he lived a humble and ordinary life like this, it would be a waste of his life!
Thinking about this, he leaped out of the window and practiced his fist technique under the moonlight.
He was only a small leader now. If he wanted to have such a beauty, he would need to become a commander, or even a leader. He still had a long way to go before he became an innate master!
After practicing his fist technique for a while, he leaped back to the brick bed and sat cross-legged to adjust his breath and activate his heart technique.
Chu Li sat in the courtyard and saw through his thoughts. He shook his head and laughed.
It seemed like all men were the same. The source of motivation was women. The Yang Baoshu who had seen Siao Shi and the Yang Baoshu who had not were two different people.
He could see his own shadow in him.
Unfortunately, the world was difficult. Not everything would go according to his wishes.
When he first left the temple and came to the House of High Dukes, his ambition was overwhelming. He wanted to have all the beauties in the world, obtain power, and become the world's number one master.
In such a short time, his mindset had changed. Having Siao Qi was better than having all the beauties in the world, but he could not have her because he was too weak.
He had been chasing after power, and he was already a rank two chief of the House of High Dukes. But compared to Prince An? Compared to the Emperor?
Although his martial arts was Grandmaster, he still had to look up to Enlightened Masters!
To become an Enlightened Master, he had three choices. He could go to the Tempest Temple, become the Emperor, or cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Power. If he failed to cultivate the Heavenly Demonic Power, he could only think about the Emperor.
He stood under the moonlight and stared at the night sky. He felt lost.
What was Siao Qi doing now? Was she cultivating hard? Had she forgotten about him?
Would he occasionally appear in her mind?
When she thought of him, would her heart not be disturbed? So what if they met again?
When would his path of pursuit come to an end? Would he fall on the path of pursuit? Would he not even see Siao Qi in the end?
As he thought about this, he activated the Heavenly Demonic Power and moved slowly under the moonlight.
He suddenly frowned and turned to look to the east.
Under the moonlight, three people floated over like three wisps of grey smoke. In the blink of an eye, they floated in front of Chu Li.
The three elders looked gloomy as they stared at him coldly.
The skinny elder in the middle scoffed, "Where is the Second Lady?"
