Zhu Xing's right palm, which had become crystal clear and without a trace of blood, hit Chu Li but suddenly stopped.? he11o?? It was only Chu Li's shadow.
Zheng Ze sighed helplessly when he saw Zhu Xing's right palm in the air.
This was the sign of the Blood Jade Palm being mastered. Zheng Ze would not be able to block it. No wonder the palm energy was so hard to deal with. In just a short while, Zheng Ze was already heavily injured and his blood essence was greatly damaged.
Zhu Xing caught up to Chu Li and hit another palm, but it hit another shadow.
Zhu Xing's palm was so fast that Zheng Ze could not even see the shape of his right palm if it was not for the pause after hitting the air.
Chu Li suddenly appeared behind Zhu Xing and struck his back without a sound.
Zhu Xing could not help but stagger forward. With a flash of the blade, his head flew off.
"Tsk!" A pillar of blood shot up into the sky. The sound of it being spat out was like a balloon deflating.
Chu Li shook it lightly. The blade that was clean and shiny as new was slowly sheathed. The cold aura immediately disappeared.
There was no murderous intent around him, nor was there any threatening aura. He was still as gentle as jade with his white robe fluttering in the wind.
Chu Li looked calm on the surface but he was excited.
That palm just now, the Heavenly Demonic Orb suddenly changed. It was like a spider suddenly shooting out silk or a frog shooting out its tongue. It pulled Zhu Xing's blood core and swallowed it.
Suddenly, there was a feeling of fullness and the Heavenly Demonic Orb quickly fell into a deep sleep.
Chu Li had a feeling that after the Heavenly Demonic Orb digested this blood core, his Heavenly Demonic Power would advance to another level.
It seemed that the cultivation of the Heavenly Demonic Scripture was not in vain. This blood core was a great supplement for the Heavenly Demonic Orb. He had never found the Heavenly Demonic Orb to have such a strong desire for any kind of inner force.
Zheng Ze approached Chu Li and looked him up and down.
His expression was ugly. He was embarrassed and angry.
He thought that he could take down Zhu Xing, but he did not expect Zhu Xing to be so difficult to deal with. What was even more embarrassing was that he was injured by Zhu Xing, and Du Feng, whom he looked down on and thought that he wanted to protect, had actually killed Zhu Xing.
If killing Zhu Xing was so easy, killing him would not be a problem either!
Now that he thought about it, his poor judgment was really laughable!
"Who are you?" Zheng Ze stared at Chu Li.
Zheng Shoufang fist saluted and said, "Young Masters, I can't thank you enough!"
"No need." Zheng Ze waved his hand and said, "I didn't help much. If you want to thank someone, you should thank him. His name is Du Feng, but I don't know if it's true or not."
Chu Li smiled. "I'm Du Feng, from the Ji Dynasty."
"So you're a master from the Ji Dynasty. No wonder I've never heard of you." Zheng Shoufang suddenly realized.
Such an expert in saber techniques should have long been famous throughout the world.
Zhu Xing was a famous master in the martial arts world, but he was easily killed by him. It was impossible for a person with such excellent bladesmanship to be unknown.
"How can a blade technique like yours not be famous?" Zheng Ze took out a pill from his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth. He frowned at Chu Li.
Miss Zheng widened her eyes and looked at Zheng Ze with concern. "Young Hero Zheng, are you alright?"
Zheng Ze shook his head and looked at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled. "I'm new here, so of course, I'm not famous."
"Are you very famous in the Ji Dynasty?" Zheng Ze asked.
Chu Li chuckled. "I'm quite famous in the Ji Dynasty."
Zheng Ze frowned. "The martial arts world of the Ji Dynasty is weak. With your martial arts, you should be a top-notch master. How can I not hear of you?"
"Perhaps Young Hero Zheng has never been to the Ji Dynasty, so you don't know much," Chu Li said.
"Come, come, come in and have a cup of hot tea," Zheng Shoufang quickly said. "Then, both of you should leave quickly. The Church of the Divine Blood has a sharp nose. Now that Zhu Xing is dead, they won't let this matter rest, so it's better for both of you to leave as soon as possible."
"Hmph, the Church of the Divine Blood!" Zheng Ze curled his lips.
The Church of the Divine Blood was powerful, and so was the Ultimate Temple. They were not afraid of the Church of the Divine Blood.
The four of them entered the Zheng Residence and sat down in the main hall.
Miss Zheng quickly brewed hot tea and served it. She looked at Zheng Ze without blinking.
"Officer Zheng, what do you plan to do?" Zheng Ze pretended not to see the look in his eyes, but Chu Li could see that he was shaken.
Zheng Shoufang smiled bitterly and sighed. "We can die in peace now that we've killed that bastard, Hu Qiming!"
"Die what?" Zheng Ze scoffed. "You're worried that the Church of the Divine Blood won't let you go, right?"
"The Church of the Divine Blood definitely won't let us live!" Zheng Shoufang shook his head.
Zheng Ze said, "How about this, both of you go to Peaceful Sky City!"
"Peaceful Sky City?" Zheng Shoufang hesitated and smiled bitterly. "Even if we go to Peaceful Sky City, they'll find a way to kill us. In short, both of us are dead meat."
Zheng Ze scoffed. "I won't let the Church of the Divine Blood kill you. Follow me to Peaceful Sky City, I'll think of a way to let you into the inner city!"
"This …" Zheng Shoufang said helplessly, "This is too much trouble, Young Hero Zheng!"
"It's no trouble at all!" Zheng Ze said, "I also want to go back and have a look. The Church of the Divine Blood can't enter the inner city of Peaceful Sky City!"
"Sigh." Zheng Shoufang felt that the world was unpredictable. He thought that God had abandoned him, but now there was a light at the end of the tunnel to meet such a good person.
Peaceful Sky City was the prefecture of the Ultimate Temple, so it was under the protection of the Ultimate Temple. The inner city of Peaceful Sky City was mostly home to the family members of the Ultimate Temple's disciples, so it was the safest place.
"It's decided then!" Zheng Ze said, "Pack up, we'll leave immediately!"
"Alright, I won't be unreasonable then!" Zheng Shoufang nodded. "I didn't think that I'd be so lucky." Chu Li smiled.
"Member Zheng, we'll only help if he's doing good deeds. If he's an evil person, we won't care about his life or death."
Zheng Shoufang nodded slowly.
Zheng Ze looked at Chu Li. "Brother Du, where are you going?"
Chu Li said, "It's my first time in the Fu Dynasty, so I'm clueless. I'll go with you, Brother Zheng."
"Thank you very much!" Zheng Ze fist saluted.
He was injured now, and it would take him a while to recover. The Blood Jade Palm Energy was too vicious. With Du Feng around, he could focus on healing his injuries before his senior brothers came to help.
The four of them drank tea. Zheng Shoufang and his daughter only took two bags. One of the bags was food, the other was a few changes of clothes, and the third was silver notes. The Zheng Family was quite wealthy.
The four of them rode on the Zheng Family's horses and left the city, heading west.
Peaceful Sky City was located in the center of the Fu Dynasty, and the Fu Dynasty had a vast territory. They had to travel five to six thousand miles from this small city to Peaceful Sky City.
After resting in the forest for a night, Zheng Ze's injuries suddenly worsened.
He channeled his energy to heal his injuries, but they did not get better. Instead, they got worse.
Early in the morning, Miss Zheng Yuwan looked at his pale face and asked with concern, "Brother Zheng, are you okay?"
Zheng Ze opened his eyes and shook his head.
His eyes were dim, his lips were pale, and his face was gloomy.
Zheng Yuwan said, "Did your injuries get worse?"
Zheng Ze said, "It's okay, I can handle it."
Chu Li sighed. "Let me lend you a hand."
"No need." Zheng Ze shook his head.
Chu Li smiled bitterly. "Brother Zheng, are you afraid that I'll hurt you?"
Zheng Ze said, "I can handle it."
Zheng Shoufang said, "Nephew Zheng, I think the people from the Church of the Divine Blood will be here soon. They're good at tracking."
"That's right, that's right. Let Young Master Du help you," Zheng Yuwan said.
Her beautiful face was filled with concern.
Chu Li smiled to himself. Which girl did not have feelings for love? Moreover, Zheng Ze was her savior. It was only natural that Zheng Yuwan fell in love with Zheng Ze.
Zheng Ze appeared cold, but he liked Zheng Yuwan.
However, because she was the one he saved, he felt that he could not accept her kindness. Otherwise, it would be like he was lusting after her and saving her because of her beauty.
