Chu Li personally poured wine for the three of them and smiled. "Miss Lu, Fa Yuan, it's been a while since we've gathered together like this."
Fa Yuan took the glass. "Brother Chu, you've been in isolated cultivation. I didn't expect your cultivation to improve so much. It's amazing."
"I was just lucky." Chu Li shook his head.
This time, the Life and Death Scripture saved his life. He was really lucky. If he really died, he might not have the chance to reincarnate. He might even enter the cycle of reincarnation and lose his memories of his past life.
This made him more interested and curious about the Life and Death Scripture. It was really a rare martial art. He was really lucky.
Lu Yurong said, "You offended the Sword Moon Sect last time, right?"
Chu Li nodded.
Lu Yurong smiled. "The Sword Moon Sect came for revenge but they couldn't do anything to you. Do you have a plan?"
Chu Li picked up the glass and took a sip. He smiled but did not say anything.
Fa Yuan also took a sip. "Brother Chu, you must have someone in the Sword Moon Sect?"
Chu Li smiled. "I have a way to track their whereabouts. If I set up a formation in advance, they won't be able to win no matter how strong they are!"
Lu Yurong rolled her eyes. "Do you really have a spy?"
Chu Li smiled but did not say anything.
Lu Yurong knew that he would not say anything more, so she changed the topic. "Chu Li, this time, you've made the name of the Northern Chu Li famous. Both of us have become your foil. Are you happy now?"
Chu Li fist saluted. "I really have to thank the two of you. If it wasn't for the two of you, he would've interrupted my isolated cultivation. The result would be unpredictable."
"Did you learn anything from your injury?" Lu Yurong asked. "You were injured earlier but now you can easily kill him."
Chu Li shook his head. "I was ambushed by the bishop of the Church of the Divine Blood and chased by Wei Wuwei. I almost lost my life!"
"The bishop of the Church of the Divine Blood?" Lu Yurong was surprised.
Chu Li sighed. "With my current cultivation level, I can't even take one hit from him. It's really scary. He has the cultivation level of an Enlightened Master."
Although the Hierarch of the Divine Blood Church could not compare to an Enlightened Master's attack and his inner energy was not as pure as an Enlightened Master's, his Blood Jade Palm could make up for some of the difference. Anyone who was hit by his Blood Jade Palm would almost certainly die.
He possessed several mystical skills and had cultivated all of them to a profound level. Relying on these mystical skills, he was invincible. However, when he encountered the consummate Blood Jade Palm, he was still killed without the slightest bit of resistance. It was clear how terrifying it was.
"The leader of the Divine Blood Church, Huang Tianhe, is indeed a genius." Fa Yuan nodded lightly. "He became famous at a young age and is a rare genius. Unfortunately, his luck is not good. The Enlightened Masters of the Fu Dynasty can only be disciples of Goddess Attraction Mountain."
Chu Li asked, "Fa Yuan, is there any way to restrain the Blood Jade Palm?"
"Every martial art has a way to restrain it." Fa Yuan nodded lightly. "The Blood Jade Palm is powerful, but there are ways to restrain it."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "Tell me about it."
Fa Yuan said, "From what I know, the Blood Jade Palm is restrained by the Eight Nine Divine Technique."
Chu Li was stunned.
Fa Yuan nodded. "It is the heart technique of the Fu Dynasty's Union Palace, the Union Divine Technique!"
Lu Yurong said, "Is the Eight Nine Divine Kung Fu so magical?"
"The Eight Nine Divine Technique can change one's physique and purify one's blood. That is the reason why none of the women who cultivate the Eight Nine Divine Technique are ugly. "Fa Yuan nodded lightly.
Lu Yurong smiled. "Now that you mention it, I want to cultivate it."
Fa Yuan shook his head. "The Eight Nine Divine Technique requires an extremely high aptitude. Miss Lu, although your aptitude is good, you may not be able to cultivate it."
Lu Yurong rolled her eyes at him.
Chu Li sighed. "So, I can't do anything to the Blood Jade Palm?"
Fa Yuan smiled and shook his head.
Lu Yurong said, "Then you can only rely on your cultivation level to fight it. But don't worry, he won't dare to come to the Ji Dynasty. There's the divine monk from the Tempest Temple."
The Tempest Temple had an Enlightened Master. If a peerless master like Huang Tianhe came to the Ji Dynasty, the Enlightened Master would definitely sense it and chase him away, or even kill him.
The other sects in the Ji Dynasty were afraid of the Fu Dynasty for revenge, but the Tempest Temple was not. With an Enlightened Master, the Fu Dynasty would not dare to provoke them.
Fa Yuan shook his head.
Chu Li said, "If that's the case, I can only cultivate in isolation."
"You're still going to cultivate in isolation? Are you really going to steal Fa Yuan's Enlightened Master in the future?" Lu Yurong smiled.
Her bright eyes were full of charm, but her words were meant to sow discord.
Fa Yuan smiled. "Brother Chu, you must become an Enlightened Master."
Chu Li shook his head. "I don't want to walk this path. I want to defy nature and become an Enlightened Master."
"You're crazy." Lu Yurong smiled.
Chu Li said, "After a while, I'm planning to go to Goddess Attraction Mountain to see if I can become their disciple."
"Impossible." Lu Yurong scoffed. "Goddess Attraction Mountain is too strict in accepting disciples. The requirements for aptitude are too high. Although you're a genius, it's impossible for them to take a liking to you. From what I know, in the past hundred years, Goddess Attraction Mountain has only accepted one disciple. Those from the Imperial Families are only outer disciples who do odd jobs."
Fa Yuan was shocked. "Brother Chu, are you really going to walk this path?"
Chu Li nodded slowly. "Becoming an Enlightened Master is boring now. Besides, I can't steal your position. Why don't I try becoming an Enlightened Master?"
Becoming an Enlightened Master was completely different from becoming an Enlightened Master. After becoming an Enlightened Master, one's life would be in their own hands.
"This path is too difficult." Fa Yuan sighed and bowed with his palms pressed together.
Lu Yurong said, "Then I wish you success."
She had no hope of becoming an Enlightened Master. Compared to becoming an Enlightened Master, she was more concerned about the prosperity of the High Duke's Public House. She continued, "Can you really resist the Church of the Divine Blood's revenge?"
"I'll wait and see." Chu Li smiled.
The four of them chatted and drank. Li Yue listened from the side without saying much.
After Chu Li sent Lu Yurong and Fa Yuan away, he continued to drink and chat with Li Yue.
"Chu Li, I'm getting married." Li Yue smiled.
Chu Li was startled. He then laughed. "Brother Li, you have someone in your heart?"
"Yes." Li Yue grinned.
Chu Li shook his head when he saw how happy he was. "How long has it been? You're getting married?"
He often came to see Li Yue. Staying in the East Garden allowed him to completely relax. It was as if he had returned to the state of mind when he first entered the High Duke's Public House.
It had only been a month and Li Yue already had someone in his heart. He was getting married.
"Then I'll have to meet my sister-in-law." Chu Li smiled. "When are you getting married?"
"I'm still choosing the date. Next month will be fine." Li Yue smiled.
"Alright." Chu Li was happy for Li Yue. "Make it more lively."
Li Yue smiled and nodded.
He was a cheerful person and liked to make friends. He was very popular in the High Duke's Public House. Chu Li could not be compared to him. Even though Chu Li had a high position now, he could not compare to Li Yue in terms of popularity.
One could imagine that Li Yue's wedding would be very lively.
When he returned to the Jade Guardian Island, Xiao Qi, Xiao Shi, and Xue Ling were still waiting for him. Chu Li first asked Xue Ling to find out who Li Yue's sweetheart was. He did not want Li Yue to be happy for nothing and be used by others.
Xue Ling smiled and left.
Xiao Qi and Xiao Shi looked at him from top to bottom. The two of them had already received the news and knew about Chu Li's amazing performance.
"You're really brave. Aren't you afraid of the Church of the Divine Blood's revenge?" Xiao Shi asked.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head.
Xiao Qi said, "The Church of the Divine Blood is different from the Sword Moon Sect. They're much fiercer."
"I have my ways." Chu Li smiled.
