PS: Thank you again for everyone's enthusiasm. It's the first time my birthday was so lively!
Chu Li sat on the third floor of Lou Wailou, a seat by the window.
He heard the inn's waiter report that the Ren Public House said that their Lady did not meet everyone.
He understood that Lu Yurong was venting her anger on him, and also to reduce his prestige.
Lu Yurong was not satisfied with winning every time they fought. Now that she had such an opportunity, how could she not vent her anger?
Although he knew this, he could not do anything about it. He originally came to ask for peace.
It seemed that it was useless to ask for it. Lu Yurong knew his intention, but she still did it. Was she fearless and wanted to gain the upper hand in the cooperation, or did she not want to cooperate at all?
Chu Li waved his hand to let the waiter go. He stood on the restaurant with his hands behind his back, looking down at the pedestrians below.
Green Mountain Town was more prosperous than Chong Ming Town. Standing here, one could feel the prosperity.
The sun was setting, and the twilight was coming. Everyone was hurrying back, busy with their own things.
He sighed and turned to go down Lou Wailou. He went to a corner and disappeared.
In the next moment, he appeared in the backyard of the Ren Public House.
"Who are you?!" A beautiful maid turned her head and suddenly saw him. Her eyes widened and she cried out involuntarily.
She never thought that there would be strangers in the backyard. Other than the Lady and them, she usually did not see any men.
In the sea of flowers, in the woods, nine beautiful maids suddenly jumped out and surrounded him. They stared at him with their hands on the hilt of their swords, ready to attack at any time.
Chu Li glanced at them.
The positions where the nine of them stood were very particular. It was exactly the same as the positions where they cultivated the Charming Maiden Divine Technique. A faint baleful aura rotated around their bodies. Although they looked so weak that they couldn't even stand up to a gust of wind, their killing intent was hidden. If one underestimated them, they would definitely suffer a great loss.
"Chu Li!" Lu Yurong stood up and put the scroll on the table. Her charming face was tense. She said coldly, "You have guts!"
Chu Li said, "Lady Lu does not want to see me, so I have to come and see Lady Lu."
"You must see me!" Lu Yurong slowly walked out of the pagoda. Her wide robe made her look petite. He leisurely walked up to him, looked him up and down, and nodded, "Your Qing Gong is indeed superb, you live up to your reputation!"
"Excuse me." Chu Li closed fist saluted. "I'm here to discuss something. Is this how Lady Lu treats her guests?"
The nine maids snorted.
Lu Yurong said lightly, "Is this also Chief Chu's way of being a guest?"
Chu Li smiled. "I was forced to do so. I really can't help it. "
"Sophistry!" Lu Yu Rong calmly reprimanded, "Fine, tell me, what's the matter!"
Chu Li pointed at them.
Lu Yurong said coldly, "If you want to say it, then say it. If you don't, then forget it. I'm already being polite by not crippling you and letting you speak!"
Chu Li said, "Why do you have to be so hostile? Everything can be discussed."
"I want to kill you. Shall we discuss this?" Lu Yurong sneered.
Chu Li said, "This is an important matter. It's better to talk about it in private!"
"The nine of them are all my confidants." Lu Yurong frowned and said, "Are you going to tell me or not?"
Chu Li shook his head and sighed.
His eyes flashed. He appeared in the pagoda and slowly sat by the stone table.
"You're courting death!" The nine maids' vision blurred. Seeing him get away so easily, they were furious.
They twisted their waists and wanted to rush into the pagoda.
"Forget it." Lu Yurong waved her hand and said, "You can all leave."
"My Lady?" The maid Xiao Xing looked at Chu Li worriedly.
They always thought that Chu Li was not worth mentioning. He was not a Grandmaster and was not a threat to the Lady. Now that they saw his Light-body Technique, they felt threatened. Maybe he could really hurt the Lady.
Lu Yurong said, "He can't hurt me. You can leave first."
"… Yes." The nine maids once again disappeared into the forest and the sea of flowers.
Lu Yurong's robe fluttered. She came and sat opposite Chu Li, "What's the matter?"
Chu Li said, "King An is aiming for the throne. Does Lady Lu know about it?"
"You just found out?" Lu Yurong sneered.
Chu Li pondered and said, "Lady Lu has a grudge against King An, right?"
"Who said so?" Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "We have nothing to do with each other."
Chu Li said, "You guys fought before. Lady Lu even injured King An. I'm impressed! "
Lu Yurong looked at him from head to toe. Her eyes were cold. She said, "Looks like I didn't lose unjustly. You know me very well."
Chu Li said, "I had to. … King An's injuries have not healed yet. He was hurt by a profound heart technique. Lady Lu hid it well and hid it from the world! However, King An is not a magnanimous person. "
"I'm not afraid of his revenge." Lu Yurong said, "Are you trying to say that we should work together?"
Chu Li said slowly, "King An has been dissatisfied with the High Duke's Public Houses for a long time. Once he inherits the throne, the first thing he will deal with is the High Duke's Public Houses. He will abolish them!"
"Where did you get your news from? You're just exaggerating!" Lu Yurong disagreed.
Chu Li said, "Let's not talk about whether my news is true or not. Let's talk about him inheriting the throne. He will definitely become an Enlightened Master. When that time comes …"
Lu Yurong sneered, "He wants to continue the throne? Dream on! "
Chu Li said, "From what I know, he has a lot of forces under him. Green Hill, Feng Huang Mountain, Titanium Temple, and probably some other major martial arts factions."
Lu Yurong waved her hand and said, "His forces are strong? They don't have a say in who becomes the Emperor. The Emperor has the final say! … No matter how strong the forces are, they are not worth mentioning in front of the Emperor! "
"Lady Lu, why are you so sure that the Emperor will not pass the throne to him?"
"If he really wanted to, there would not be this marriage." Lu Yurong sneered, "With his ruthlessness and ruthlessness, he wants to become the Emperor. That's ridiculous, hmph!"
Chu Li smiled, "Oh …? … I heard that the Emperor's character is similar to King An. "
Lu Yurong frowned and looked at him.
"He knows it's impossible but he still does it. His character is persevering. Isn't this the quality of a hero? King An is cold and ruthless. He treats people like ants. He is not a good person but he will be a good Emperor. "Chu Li shook his head," I can't think of why the Emperor would not choose him. "
Lu Yurong's face darkened.
Chu Li said slowly, "Lady Lu thinks that when the Emperor chooses his successor, he will first consider his character. He is afraid that it will backfire on him. She doesn't know that the Emperor is already an Enlightened Master. What is there to be afraid of? Since there is nothing to be afraid of, there is only one standard for the person to be chosen – whether or not he is beneficial to the Leng Family. He is not moved by the first beauty of the Great Ji Dynasty. He only cares about benefits and is unscrupulous. Is such a person not suitable to be the Emperor? "
Lu Yurong frowned and did not say a word.
She was moved by Chu Li's words.
Before this, she planned to sit on top of the mountain and watch the tigers fight. She was sure that King An would not sit on the throne no matter what. In the end, it was all for naught.
Chu Li's words suddenly made her feel that she was too careless.
Even if there was a chance, she could not let King An become the ruler.
