While they were talking, a figure flashed and Chu Li appeared in front of them. He greeted them with a smile and sat in front of them.
He glanced at them and saw that they were both dressed in white, untainted by even a speck of dust. Their beautiful faces shone with a gentle luster under the light like two pieces of white jade. One of their eyes was as clear as a spring while the other was as deep as a lake.
"You're full of evil tricks, you won't die so easily." Xiao Shi pursed her lips and smiled.
Chu Li shook his head and laughed.
Xiao Qi said, "The Emperor has announced a great reward and wants to search the world. Are you going to disguise yourself as Du Feng?"
Chu Li nodded.
Xiao Shi was puzzled. "Why do you have to disguise yourself as Du Feng? Wouldn't it be better if you just covered your face? Or you could just disguise yourself as a stranger. "
"It's more interesting this way," Chu Li said.
Xiao Qi frowned and glared at him. "What about Snow Lunar Pavilion? If the Emperor takes his anger out on Snow Lunar Pavilion, it'll be a disaster! "
Chu Li laughed. "Don't worry, it's not that serious. I've already revealed my identity as a disciple of Heavenly Demonic Sect. The Emperor knows what to do. He went after me but was defeated by Heavenly Demonic Sect."
"What if he takes his anger out on me?" Xiao Qi scoffed.
Xiao Shi said, "What are you up to this time?"
Chu Li smiled without saying a word.
Xiao Qi took a deep breath and her chest heaved up and down, attracting Chu Li's attention.
Xiao Shi chuckled. "Are you two going to fight?"
Chu Li shook his head helplessly. He did not want to say much but they wanted to know. He had to say it eventually, so he answered, "Don't worry. No matter how angry the Emperor is, he won't take his anger out on Snow Lunar Pavilion. I've already directed his attention to Heavenly Demonic Sect, so he won't."
"There's another reason, right?" Xiao Qi scoffed.
Chu Li said, "Do you know that Senior Shen has a crush?"
Xiao Qi frowned at him and slowly nodded.
Shen Yinghu, who was both his aunt and master, had always been depressed and unhappy. She was obviously a sad person.
She did not know who Shen Yinghu's crush was. It seemed that no one in Snow Lunar Pavilion had mentioned this person. It seemed that they were afraid of making Shen Yinghu sad, so no one mentioned it.
Her mind had always been focused on the Regal Sword Scripture, so she didn't pay much attention to it. She didn't dare to mention it in front of Shen Yinghu to prevent her from being even sadder.
Xiao Shi asked, "Chu Li, you know about it?"
"I have a guess, and it's not far from the truth," Chu Li said.
Xiao Shi was surprised. "Could it be the Emperor?"
Xiao Qi frowned and shook her head. "No."
Chu Li chuckled. "Why not? When His Majesty was young, he must have been very handsome and attractive to women. When he roamed the Wulin world, his martial arts were also very strong. Is it strange that Elder Shen is attracted to him? "
Shen Yinghu once said that the man she loved was dead. Chu Li initially thought it was true, but after a few interactions, he found out the truth.
Women are the best liars. Sometimes they even deceive themselves.
"Impossible!" Xiao Qi shook her head.
Xiao Shi said, "Little sister, it's not impossible."
Chu Li smiled and said, "It's not appropriate for us to talk too much about the private affairs of our elders."
Xiao Qi frowned at him and scoffed. "Are you sure?"
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Xiao Shi chuckled. "That's interesting. No wonder she's always in a daze and often looks towards the direction of the Imperial House."
"The next time we enter the Imperial House, I'll bring Elder Shen there and we'll know." Chu Li smiled.
"Don't mess around!" Xiao Qi quickly said.
No one knew what would happen if they made a fuss. With Xiao Aunt's temper, no one knew what would happen.
"Chu Li, you're really bad!" Xiao Shi pointed at him.
Chu Li said, "But this matter won't end here. We need to hurry back to Fairy's Capital. King An's Imperial Residence needs to be stabilized. Second Lady, you should hurry back."
"Alright." Xiao Shi stretched her body, revealing her graceful curves. She smiled. "Without King An, it feels like King An's Imperial Residence is my home. It's completely different!"
Chu Li said, "From now on, it will be Second Lady's home."
"Sigh, it's a little boring for him to die just like that." Xiao Shi shook her head. "We can torture him slowly."
Chu Li shook his head. "A long night is fraught with dreams."
"Alright, I'll leave tomorrow. You should hurry back too." Xiao Shi said.
Chu Li nodded.
Xiao Shi glanced at the two of them with a faint smile. She shook her head and left.
Xiao Qi blushed under her stare.
Chu Li chuckled. He grabbed her waist and disappeared in a flash. They returned to her bedroom.
—
Chu Li and Xiao Qi rode their horses and traveled along the official road. After leaving Adjacent Town, they traveled for more than a hundred miles.
In the evening, the two of them entered a big city.
The city was bustling with activity and traffic was endless.
The two of them led their horses to an inn. Then, they found a restaurant and found a seat by the window. They looked at the scenery outside through the window and the noise of the city hit them in the face.
The lanterns were already lit. They sat on the third floor. There were many customers on the third floor and it was very lively.
Chu Li took a sip of the fine wine and sighed comfortably.
Now, he was crippled of his martial arts. His Heavenly Demonic Power was completely covered by the Life and Death Scripture. It was as if he had lost his Heavenly Demonic Power. There was no trace of the Heavenly Demonic Power on him. He looked like an ordinary person.
"Sigh, this is so frustrating!" Someone put down his glass and sighed loudly. "Say, Du Feng in the South and Chu Li in the North. I heard that Chu Li has been forced by the Emperor to cripple his martial arts to guard the Imperial Mausoleum. As for Du Feng, he killed a prince and is being hunted by the Emperor. The young masters of the Ji Dynasty's martial arts world have all been destroyed!"
"Lower your voice!"
"Lower my * ss. It's the truth. Why can't I say it!"
"Don't cause trouble. Look at the situation now. If you speak up for Du Feng, you'll be colluding with the enemy and getting yourself into trouble!"
"Did I say something wrong? Chu Li is so lucky. His martial arts was crippled but he got a beauty. That's the Yi Public House's Third Lady. I heard that she's as beautiful as a fairy. It's rare in the world! "
"Are you jealous?"
"Which man wouldn't be jealous? His martial arts was crippled but he still stayed by her side. This kind of woman is rare. If I can meet such a beautiful woman, I'll die without regrets! "
"Everyone is jealous. Chu Li's luck is really good."
"Compared to him, Du Feng is far from it. However, I admire his courage. He really dared to kill a prince. I heard that King An has a good reputation."
"It's only about gratitude and grudges. There's no right or wrong."
"That Emperor is too much. As a prince, he was killed and now he's being hunted by the whole world. It's so embarrassing. I think the Imperial Family is getting worse with each generation!"
"Shut up!" A shout was heard.
The two middle-aged men in black slammed the table and shouted.
The one who spoke first was a burly young man. He had a round face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He had a bit of an arrogant aura. Seeing that they were so rude, he rolled his eyes. "Who are you and what do you want?"
"We're Protectors from the Secret Guardians Hall!" The two middle-aged men in black said. "We suspect that you're colluding with Du Feng!"
"Hmph, I don't even know Du Feng. Can't I say something fair?"
"Whether you know Du Feng or not, we'll know after we interrogate him. Let's go!" The two middle-aged men in black said coldly. "We don't have to do anything, right?"
"I'm not leaving!" The burly young man roared. "The Secret Guardians Hall is too controlling!"
