Outside Chong Ming Town, it was crowded.
It was the wedding of the Second Lady of the Public House, and she was marrying the famous Prince An as the Princess. This was a big event for Chong Ming Town, it was a great honor.
The citizens of the city were proud of it. They had their breakfast early, cleaned themselves up, put on their festive clothes and left their houses early. They waited on the streets or outside the city. They wanted to catch a glimpse of King An's splendor. If they could see the beauty of the Second Lady, that would be even better.
The residents outside the town came early, some were impatient and waited at the town gate, some wanted to see the Second Lady, so they went outside the Public House.
The whole Chong Ming Town was in a festive mood, the street was crowded like the sea, people were jostling each other, it was more crowded than the lantern festival.
Outside Chong Ming Town, Siao Tieying brought a group of high-ranking members of the Public House to welcome Prince An and his entourage, he had a complicated smile on his face.
Prince An's guards of honor were all laid out, every one of them was solemn and holy, the majesty of the royal family permeated the entire procession.
The surrounding people looked on with mixed feelings, looking at the handsome Prince An on the horse, cheers could be heard from time to time, they felt that only a noble descendant like him, a Royal Highness with a good reputation, was worthy of the Second Lady.
Chu Li quietly left the procession and appeared on the Island of Symphony of the Public House.
The Island of Symphony was hung with red silk, it made the whole island look festive.
When Chu Li appeared on the Island of Symphony, the atmosphere on the island was not as festive.
When he arrived at Siao Shi's room, other than Yang Xu and Xue Ling, there was another man in the room, he was tall and slender, a head taller than him, handsome, sharp eyebrows, elegant temperament.
When Yang Xu and Xue Ling saw him, they were relieved, they gave him a look. Then, they left.
"Chu Li, this is the fourth." Siao Shi sat in front of the dressing table, looking at him in the mirror, she pointed at the slender handsome young man beside her, "This guy finally came back!"
Chu Li was surprised. This was the fourth young master of the Public House, Siao Baihe.
"Chu Li greets the fourth young master," Chu Li closed fist saluted and smiled.
Siao Baihe waved his hand, "Chief Chu, you're welcome."
Siao Shi said, "Ignore him, he's just a nobody!"
Chu Li smiled.
Siao Shi's expression did not look good. She scoffed, "That bastard King An has entered the city?"
Chu Li nodded. "I'm entering the city now. Lady, it's time for you to put on your makeup."
"There's no need to put on makeup, just put on that outfit." Siao Shi said calmly, "I heard you've killed quite a number of people?"
Chu Li said, "I killed ten Grandmasters from the Imperial Residence of King An. Finally, my merit is complete! "
He had made all the preparations before this, asking for the help of various Grandmasters and mobilizing all the forces that he could use, all for this moment.
Fortunately, there were not too many twists and turns. In the end, he successfully cut off one of King An's arms and greatly damaged his vitality. In a short period of time, King An would not be able to harm the High Duke's Public House.
This was not only to harm King An, but also to intimidate him. He wanted to let him know that the House of High Dukes still had forces like the Dark Guards that he did not understand, so he did not dare to act rashly.
Siao Shi sneered, "What a wishful thinking. He wants to be heavily injured midway and delay the wedding!"
Chu Li smiled and said, "His Highness King An's plan is very impressive. The success rate is very high, and the risk is very low. It's brilliant!"
"Hmph!" Siao Shi gave him a sidelong glance, "You've picked up a big bargain! Ten Grandmasters died, I guess the Imperial Residence of King An will stop now? "
"There should still be more than ten Grandmasters. We can't be careless. Master Xiao Tieying has to be careful to prevent him from going crazy. "Chu Li said.
Siao Baihe had been accompanying Siao Shi and heard the Protector's report.
When he heard the news, he was extremely shocked.
He had always concealed his identity and wandered the martial arts world. Until now, he had not become a Grandmaster. But he knew the power of a Grandmaster.
And this young Chief who was below one and above a thousand people in his Public House, actually killed ten Grandmasters in one go. It was really shocking.
More importantly, where did he get these Grandmasters from?
This was the real shock. Presumably, after tomorrow, the martial arts world would be in awe of the Yi Public House. The martial arts world would be in awe of the Yi Public House. The martial arts world within the borders would also be well-behaved and would not dare to cause trouble. The Public House would be much more relaxed.
"Chief Chu, where did you get so many masters?" Siao Baihe smiled, "The Secret Guards of the Public House. If it was someone else, they would really believe it."
Chu Li smiled, "I borrowed six people from the Ren Public House. One of the Third Lady's best friend, two of my friends, plus eight people from our Public House. I even lured out Lu Yurong from the Ren Public House. It's enough to take care of those ten Grandmasters."
"Your ability to create clouds and rain with a flip of your hand is really amazing!" Siao Baihe exclaimed, "You can even borrow people from the Ren Public House!"
He knew the hatred between the Ren Public House and the Yi Public House. That woman, Lu Yurong, was even more powerful.
Chu Li said, "Lu Yurong also knows the principle of being interdependent. I even helped her steal a treasure from the Imperial Residence of King An. That's why she agreed to borrow six Grandmasters."
"You can convince Lu Yurong. Impressive!" Siao Baihe smiled.
Chu Li said, "I was forced to do so. If I can't control King An, our Public House will have no way out. It will be extremely difficult for me and the Lady to enter the Imperial Residence."
"You have to be careful," Siao Baihe said, "How can King An be satisfied? He will definitely get rid of you."
Chu Li smiled, "I have a way to protect myself. Don't worry, Fourth Young Master."
Siao Baihe nodded. He was now very confident in Chu Li's methods. He smiled, "I'll leave Second Sister to Chief Chu!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted, "After entering the Imperial Residence, it's inevitable to suffer a little. I'll try my best."
"It's hard to predict a person's heart. I really didn't expect King An to be this kind of person," Siao Baihe shook his head and sighed, "Big Brother is in a lot of pain. He still has to welcome King An today. I'm really afraid that he won't be able to hold it in and quarrel with King An on the street!"
"Big Brother also received the news." Siao Shi scoffed, "He's in a good mood now. He won't mess around with King An. Alright, Fourth Young Master, you can go now!"
"… Alright," Siao Baihe closed fist saluted.
Chu Li closed fist saluted and watched him leave. He seemed to be deep in thought. This Fourth Young Master was not simple!
Seeing Siao Baihe leaving the house through the mirror, Siao Shi stood up and stretched her body. She showed off her graceful figure and scoffed, "Chu Li, you're really amazing!"
Chu Li smiled, "Lady, do you blame me for hiding it from you?"
"At least you understand!" Siao Shi scoffed, "Such a fun thing. Why didn't you tell me in advance? Let me be happy!"
She would feel restless whenever she heard about King An. If she knew that Chu Li was preparing to deal with King An, she would not be in such a bad mood.
"I'm not sure. If I fail, wouldn't it be embarrassing?" Chu Li smiled.
Siao Shi said, "This time it was really dangerous. We're lucky! … You always like to take risks! "
Chu Li smiled.
"I don't want to go with him. I don't want to marry him!" Siao Shi's face darkened. She frowned, "Just thinking about it gives me goosebumps!"
"This …" Chu Li smiled bitterly, "We have to go through this. We can't just let it be. We'll just have to endure it."
"Let Yang Xu pretend to be me!" Siao Shi said.
Chu Li was shocked by her idea. He quickly waved his hand.
It was not like King An had never seen Yang Xu before. Once he found out, it would be a huge problem. This was a definite guarantee. If King An were to explode on the spot, the wedding might really be delayed.
Siao Shi looked at his determined expression. She scoffed and said no more, "After the wedding, what do we do?"
Chu Li smiled, "We can imitate King An's plan and get injured."
"That's true." Siao Shi nodded, "Once we're injured, we can avoid his entanglement."
Chu Li said, "Actually, there are many ways. Lady, you don't have to worry. Who knows, once you leave the Imperial Residence, King An might suddenly die."
Siao Shi rolled her eyes at him and scoffed, "I'm not worried."
Chu Li chuckled, "You must hold the prayer beads properly. Don't lose them!"
"Of course!" Siao Shi nodded.
This was also where her confidence came from. If something went wrong, she could just crush it. Chu Li could come over instantly and take her away from danger.
"Lady, it's time to put on your makeup." Yang Xu's voice came from outside, "Master Xiao and the others have entered the city."
"Come in!" Siao Shi's face darkened.
