Chu Li smiled. "It's the Second Lady's wedding. It's inevitable that there will be some troublemakers. The manpower in the Public House might not be enough."
Mei Ao Shuang said coldly, "Chu Li, you should know that I don't want anything to do with the High Duke's Public House!"
Chu Li sighed and said helplessly, "If only the Third Lady was here, it would be much better. Unfortunately, she …"
Mei Ao Shuang frowned and glared at him.
The High Duke's Public House announced to the public that the Third Lady was in isolated cultivation. She would not come out even after the Second Lady's wedding.
Mei Ao Shuang was extremely furious.
This man with the surname Chu was the most detestable. He always used Xiao Qi to force him!
"If Xiao Qi was here, she wouldn't have let me do this!" Mei Ao Shuang scoffed coldly.
Chu Li smiled. "Yes, it's a pity that she's not around. There's really no manpower in the residence. If anything happens to the Second Lady and we can't stop it because we don't have enough manpower, I wonder how sad the Third Lady will be when she comes out of isolated cultivation!"
"The one with the surname Chu, you are really despicable!" Mei Ao Shuang glared at him hatefully.
"Valley Master Mei, please forgive me." Chu Li spread his hands and smiled bitterly. "I'm also forced into a corner. There are too many people eyeing the Second Lady's wedding. If it's really ruined, then the reputation of the House of High Dukes will be gone. We'll lose our deterrence towards the martial arts world within our borders. If we can't suppress them, they'll definitely take the opportunity to stir up trouble. I don't know how many innocent people will die!"
Mei Ao Shuang's eyes flashed.
Although she was angry and did not like Chu Li, she had to admit that Chu Li was right and had hit the nail on the head.
Once the High Duke's Public House lost its deterrent power, the martial arts factions that were firmly suppressed within the borders would definitely not let go of the opportunity. They would definitely seize the opportunity to rise up. Flames of war would be lit everywhere, and countless people would die in disputes!
Chu Li sighed, "But if Valley Leader Mei is really unwilling, I dare not force you. After all, once someone finds out about Valley Leader Mei's identity, Tai Hua Valley will indeed become the public enemy of the martial arts world."
"Hmph. As long as you understand! "Mei Ao Shuang glared at him.
Chu Li smiled. "But we can take a step back. Valley Leader Mei doesn't have to be a maid. She can hide in the dark and wear a black mask. If the situation isn't dire, there's no need for Valley Master Mei to take action. "
"In that case …" Mei Ao Shuang muttered to herself.
This was much better. Qin Xiaofeng also nodded her head repeatedly.
Chief Steward Chu had taken a step back time and time again. After all, he had been a great help in finding these Moon Eater Grass.
For the sake of these Moon Eater Grasses, it was not a big deal even if they really offended all the martial artists. As long as there were enough Taihua Jindan, the strength of the disciples was guaranteed, enough to be ranked among the top sects, and those guys could only be in awe.
Mei Ao Shuang thought about it and saw through Chu Li's sinister intentions.
He was asking for a sky-high price and returning the price when it hit the ground. In the beginning, the idea was to make him a surprise soldier, but he didn't mention it directly. Instead, he made an even more excessive request and retreated step by step until he was forced to agree.
"You really are a bastard who deserves to die!" Mei Ao Shuang hated him so much that the roots of her teeth were itching. She wished she could give him a few tight slaps.
Chu Li smiled. "Valley Leader Mei has agreed?"
"Hmph, alright, I agree!" Mei Ao Shuang said hatefully, "If it wasn't for the Moon Eater Grass, it'd be useless even if you mentioned Xiao Qi!"
Chu Li chuckled and nodded.
The more she said that, the more it proved that Xiao Qi was the one who was really useful. Every strike was a hit.
Fong Xiao Feng said, "Chief Chu, I have a presumptuous question. Where did you find this Moon Eater Grass?"
She also knew that this question was a little excessive, but the Moon Eater Grass was too important to Tai Hua Valley. For the sake of Tai Hua Valley, she didn't care about her old face anymore.
Chu Li said, "In a ravine. Unfortunately, the Moon Eater Grass there has been moved here. There shouldn't be any left. When do you need it?"
"The Moon Eater Grass hasn't fully grown yet. It'll probably take half a month." Fong Xiao Feng said, "Pluck it now. It's a pity that the medicinal effects are damaged! "
Chu Li nodded. "That's true."
Mei Ao Shuang scoffed. "You've wasted a stalk of Moon Eater Grass, which is a Taihua Gold Pill!"
Chu Li said, "That's okay, right? There are seeds for the Moon Eater Grass. Just plant some. "
"You wish. The seeds aren't useful at all!" Mei Ao Shuang scoffed coldly. "Otherwise, why would it become extinct?"
Chu Li was surprised. "Hmm —?"
Mei Ao Shuang scoffed. "The Moon Eater Grass needs to be nourished by the feces of Spirit Beasts. Do you think you can make it grow so easily?"
Chu Li suddenly realized. "I planted it with Spirit Soil. It hasn't died yet."
"It doesn't matter if there's no feces of Spirit Beasts. The key is the germination period." Mei Ao Shuang said, "Without the feces of Spirit Beasts, the seeds can't germinate at all. That ravine of yours …"
Chu Li said, "It's a ravine near the Hundred-Thousand Hills."
He thought to himself. It seemed that the mysteriousness of the Scripture of Life and Death was beyond his imagination.
"That's no wonder." Mei Ao Shuang said, "It's very likely that some Spirit Beasts will pass by. That ravine is too dangerous. It's better if you don't go."
Chu Li smiled.
Mei Ao Shuang scoffed coldly. "You think your abilities are so great that you can deal with ordinary Spirit Beasts, don't you?"
Chu Li laughed. "Are Spirit Beasts really that powerful?"
"People like us won't survive even if we meet the weakest Spirit Beasts." Mei Ao Shuang said, "They are favored by God. Their bones are ten times harder than ours, ten times faster than ours, and ten times stronger. What do you have to fight them?"
Chu Li pondered and nodded.
He had experienced this before. If Mei Ao Shuang met a Spirit Crane, she would definitely die. Martial arts was a joke in front of Spirit Beasts. Even if she had a treasure sword, it would be useless. It was no different from a baby holding a wooden stick.
Mei Ao Shuang said, "Moreover, it was luck this time. That's why the Moon Eater Grass could germinate. It might not happen next time!"
Chu Li said, "I will mobilize the people from the House of High Dukes."
"It's not that easy!" Mei Ao Shuang shook her head. "Spirit Beasts almost never leave the Hundred-Thousand Hills. How can we find them?"
"Spirit Beasts will occasionally appear on the outskirts of the Hundred-Thousand Hills, right?"
"That's too dangerous. Forget it." Mei Ao Shuang said, "If the people from the House of High Dukes lose their lives, I won't feel at ease. Siao Qi will blame me too!"
"… Alright. Once we enter the Imperial Residence with the Second Lady and use the power of the Imperial Residence, we should be able to find some," Chu Li said.
Mei Ao Shuang rolled her eyes at him and scoffed. "I can tell that you don't like the Imperial Residence of King An. Do you still want the Second Lady to marry them?"
"What else can I do?" Chu Li shook his head.
Mei Ao Shuang said, "Alright, it's up to you. I will act as a secret guard and help you in secret."
"Thank you, Valley Leader Mei," Chu Li smiled. "Why don't you stay in the Imperial Residence? It'll be convenient for you to move around at any time."
"Forget it. I have a residence in town," Mei Ao Shuang waved her hand. "Don't worry, I won't run away!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted. "Then I'll take my leave first!"
Fong Xiao Feng stood up to send him off. "Chief Chu, I really have to thank you. You've really saved our Tai Hua Valley!"
Chu Li smiled. "Elder Fong, you don't have to be so polite. We're a family."
Mei Ao Shuang curled her red lips. "Who's a family with you!"
Chu Li pretended not to hear her. He closed fist saluted with a smile and left the Sky Inn.
