Tang Ye watched as Tang Zhao flew up into the clouds and disappeared. He turned to glare at Xu Shixing. "You have nothing to say now, right? What Enlightened Master? There's no such thing! Look at how scared you are! "
Xu Shixing smiled bitterly. "It's not impossible for him to become an Enlightened Master. He's a genius. It's not difficult for him to surpass the other one."
"He's not an Enlightened Master yet!" Tang Ye scoffed. "Besides, if we can cripple him, he won't become an Enlightened Master!"
"Your Royal Highness, he's a disciple of Goddess Attraction Mountain!" Xu Shixing hurriedly said.
Tang Ye said, "Just don't let anyone find out. Goddess Attraction Mountain isn't a god. Do you think they know everything?"
"That's too risky." Xu Shixing advised.
Tang Ye scoffed. "So what if Goddess Attraction Mountain finds out? What can they do to me?"
Xu Shixing was stunned and did not say anything more.
Tang Ye's identity was very important. Even if Goddess Attraction Mountain found out, they might not dare to do anything. After all, Tang Ye had the bloodline of an Enlightened Master. He was protected by an Enlightened Master. No matter how much trouble he caused, his life would be spared.
"Alright, stop being overcautious. You're embarrassing me." Tang Ye scoffed. "Do whatever you want. I don't believe I can't get this woman. None of the women I've set my eyes on have escaped!"
"Yes!" Xu Shixing said.

Early in the morning, Xu Shixing led the nine knights and appeared outside the main gate of the Ren Public House. Two stone lions glared at them fiercely. Four Protectors of the High Duke's Public House stood with their hands on their swords, vigilantly blocking their way.
Xu Shixing sat on his horse and fist saluted. "Please inform them that I'm here to propose marriage to your public house on behalf of the Fu Dynasty's Third Prince!"
The four Protectors looked at each other and sized up Xu Shixing.
Xu Shixing proudly scoffed. "What? Is this how the Ren Public House treats its guests?"
The red door covered with copper nails slowly opened. The Ren Public House's External Chief strode out and fist saluted enthusiastically as he led them into the living room.
"Isn't the Lady engaged to Chief Chu? Why is there another proposal?" The four Protectors stood at the door and whispered.
"It's not surprising that the Fu Dynasty's Third Prince is interested in someone like the Lady."
"Hmph, the Third Prince is such an important person."
"I think it's better for the young lady to marry the Third Prince. Although he's a little arrogant, he's still a prince of the Fu Dynasty. He's more honorable than the princes of the Ji Dynasty, and he's also more honorable than Chu Li."
"That's true. The fact that Chu Li is able to marry the Third Lady of the Yi Public House is already a blessing in disguise. Now that he wants to marry the Lady, it's really …"
"Chu Li's martial arts is peerless. Only he can suppress someone like the Lady."
"The Lady should like Chu Li. She has both intelligence and martial arts. Are you going to let the Third Prince's love down?" Xu Shixing said coldly.
Lu Yulou calmly nodded. "I can only appreciate the Third Prince's deep affection."
Xu Shixing stared at him motionlessly.
Lu Yulou also looked at him, calm and magnanimous.
Xu Shixing laughed coldly and said, "He really doesn't know how to appreciate favors. How can Chu Li be compared to our Prince?"
"Although our House of High Dukes is not talented, we are not the kind of people who climb up to the rich." Lu Yulou shook his head and said, "The engagement is completely up to little sister's will. We will not sacrifice little sister for benefits."
"You have guts. I admire you!" Xu Shixing closed fist saluted, turned around and strode away.
Lu Yulou watched as they jumped on their horses and galloped away. He frowned and his eyes flashed.
He went straight to the backyard. Lu Yurong was wearing a snow-white gown and was playing the guzheng in the gazebo.
Her white hands were playing the guzheng slowly, elegant and calm. The sound of the guzheng was loud and clear.
When Lu Yulou heard the sound of the guzheng, he could not help but smile. It seemed that little sister was not worried because of this. She was very calm.
Lu Yurong's hands pressed on the strings and the sound of the guzheng stopped. She looked up and asked, "Left?"
Lu Yulou sat opposite her. "Left disappointed. I can see that they will not give up."
"I think they went to the Fairy's Capital." Lu Yurong picked up the teacup.
A maid beside her served Lu Yulou a cup of tea.
"Little sister, can you really handle it?" Lu Yulou frowned. "Once they go to the Fairy's Capital, I'm afraid that His Highness might not be able to stop them and force you to separate from Chu Li. What will you do then?"
"His Highness won't." Lu Yurong shook her head.
The benefits involved were easy to calculate. The Crown Prince was not a foolish person. He would not risk offending Chu Li to cater to the Fu Dynasty even if the Fu Dynasty could suppress the Ji Dynasty.
Lu Yulou shook his head. "We have to be careful. Even if His Highness won't, what about the Emperor?"
Lu Yurong frowned and muttered, "We can't guess or influence the Emperor's thoughts."
"You can only obey the Emperor's decree," Lu Yulou said.
Lu Yurong shook her head. "If that's the case, I'll just kill myself."
"You can't hide it." Lu Yulou said, "They are not fools."
Lu Yurong frowned and did not say anything.
Under the general trend, it was difficult to stay out of it.
"Can Chu Li help?" Lu Yulou asked.
Lu Yurong sighed.
Lu Yulou said, "Chu Li today is different from the past."
Lu Yurong shook her head. "His foundation is still too shallow. There is a high chance that Enlightened Masters will appear in the Tempest Temple. Now, it all depends on whether he can become an inner disciple of Goddess Attraction Mountain."
As they spoke, a maid hurried to the gazebo and presented a bamboo tube with both hands. "My Lady, a secret report."
Lu Yurong reached out and took it. After opening it, a bright smile appeared on her face.
Lu Yulou quickly asked, "Is it good news?"
"Chu Li has become an inner disciple of Goddess Attraction Mountain." Lu Yurong pursed her lips and smiled. "As expected of Chu Li!"
Lu Yulou was shocked. "He really became an inner disciple of Goddess Attraction Mountain?"
