Imperial Residence of King An, Tianshu Courtyard.
Siao Shi was dressed in white and was slowly practicing her fist technique, activating her vigor and strengthening her body.
She cultivated the Heavenly Heart Technique which focused on her spirit and senses. It did not benefit her body much. She usually practiced the Nourishing Fist Technique so her movements were slow and relaxed.
Her apricot gown fluttered as Su Ru glided over and smiled, "Second Lady, there's news about Chu Li."
"Oh, tell me about it," Siao Shi scoffed, "This groom must be very proud of himself, right?"
"This time, he really made a name for himself," Su Ru pursed her lips and smiled with a proud expression, "I guess no one would dare to provoke him anymore!"
"Say it," Siao Shi stopped her fist technique and Liu Xu handed her a towel.
The three of them came to the gazebo and Liu Xu served them tea.
Su Ru waved her hand to indicate that she did not want it. She sat in front of Siao Shi and smiled, "More than a hundred, Master's Junior Chu's feat."
Chu Li looked up at him.
Zhou Jie smiled, "One person killed a hundred people, he really did not embarrass Goddess Attraction Mountain. Master is very happy!"
Chu Li smiled, "I used some tricks, it's not worth mentioning."
"How is it not worth mentioning," Zhou Jie smiled, "If it were me, I wouldn't have that ability. Master's Junior Chu is indeed Master's Junior Chu!"
Deep down, he still hated Chu Li, but at the same time, he admired him. He felt that Chu Li was a true opponent, and he needed to treat him seriously. Respecting an opponent like Chu Li was equivalent to respecting himself, so he did not need to suppress his emotions and was able to treat him calmly.
Chu Li smiled and did not say much.
Zhou Jie said, "But I heard something."
Chu Li looked up at him, "Tell me about it."
Zhou Jie said, "I heard from Tang Zhao that the Fu Dynasty has already sent their troops!"
Chu Li frowned.
Zhou Jie nodded, "Yes, they are sending their troops to the Ji Dynasty!"
"How is that possible?" Chu Li frowned in confusion.
The Fu Dynasty rarely sent their troops. They usually stirred up the other four countries to kill each other so they could reap the benefits. They did not need to do anything themselves and often secretly manipulated the situation of the war.
Zhou Jie said, "What Tang Zhao said should be correct. This time they might have angered the Fu Dynasty. If they don't teach the Ji Dynasty a lesson, the Fu Dynasty's prestige will be lost and they will lose their deterrence towards the other four countries."
"Send troops." Chu Li shook his head.
Zhou Jie smiled and said, "But we don't have to worry. Even if a war breaks out, it won't be a war. It's impossible for them to annihilate the Ji Dynasty. That's not in line with the Fu Dynasty's plans. They're just giving the Ji Dynasty a little bit of a show of strength, and at the same time, intimidate the other three countries."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
However, his heart sank slightly. Since he wanted to intimidate them, he naturally had to give it his all. He did not know how many soldiers the Ji Dynasty would lose, and it would be his fault.
Zhou Jie said, "Martial Uncle Chu, you don't have to feel guilty. Fights and reunions are common. Even without Martial Uncle Chu, a fight is inevitable every few years."
Chu Li forced a smile. "Have they already sent their troops?"
"Yes." Zhou Jie nodded.
Chu Li pushed the food away, put down his silver chopsticks and walked out.
Zhou Jie hurriedly said, "Martial Uncle Chu, Master has already gone into seclusion."
Chu Li waved his hand and continued to walk out.
He knew that the disciples of the Goddess Attraction Mountain were free and could come and go as they pleased. Since Zhou Dunli and Dong Jianxin were both in seclusion, he could directly leave.
He thought about it and glided to Lu Yurong's courtyard.
Lu Yurong was practicing the Empyrean Fairy Palm in the courtyard. Her whole body was like a piece of white jade, flowing with a warm brilliance. When she saw Chu Li, her bright eyes looked over, cold and emotionless. She was still immersed in the Empyrean Fairy Power.
After a while, she stopped. When she came to Chu Li, she had already returned to normal and her eyes were warm. "What's the urgent matter?"
If it was not urgent, he would not have disturbed her cultivation.
