PS: Update complete.
Chu Li glided away with Li Ruolan beside him. Her gown fluttered in the wind while the Thin Elder and nine middle-aged men followed behind them.
The rest of them were taking care of the three injured men. Their inner energy was crippled, so they would not be able to fight back if someone took the opportunity to attack them.
"They're waiting for more people to surround us, right?" Li Ruolan asked.
Chu Li nodded. "They haven't given up yet."
"Should we attack now?" Li Ruolan frowned. "We'll be at a disadvantage when they arrive later."
Chu Li scoffed. "I'd like to see how brave they are. Let's go!"
"Alright, I'll listen to you," Li Ruolan said.
She trusted Chu Li so much that she did not even bother to use her brain. She would just listen to him.
Chu Li and Li Ruolan glided away and soon passed through the canyon to the other side.
Chu Li suddenly stopped and turned around to fist salute the Thin Elder. "There's no need to send us off. Let's bid farewell here!"
"Zhao Dahe!" The Thin Elder scoffed. "The disciples of Hai Cang Mountain can't be killed so easily!"
Chu Li frowned. "What are you going to do? Do you really want to attack? I'll kill them all first! "
"If you kill them, Hai Cang Mountain will avenge them in the Li Dynasty!" The Thin Elder said coldly.
Chu Li said, "I'll give it a try! I've been holding back because I don't want to be enemies with Hai Cang Mountain. I had no choice but to kill Zhao Dahe and Zhao Haiyun must die. Otherwise, more than a hundred innocent people from the Li Dynasty will die with everlasting regret. However, the other disciples of Hai Cang Mountain have nothing to do with me, so I didn't kill them even if you wanted to! "
"Hmph!" The Thin Elder sneered.
However, he was moved. Zhao Dahe was still able to distinguish between kindness and hatred. He would not kill unless he had no other choice. It seemed like he was a kind-hearted person.
Chu Li said, "But if you insist on killing us, I can only fight back. We'll fight to the death and see who dies first!"
"I have to give you an explanation for killing Zhao Haiyun!" The Thin Elder said. "Are you going to kill Hai Cang Mountain disciples for nothing?"
"Explanation?" Chu Li scoffed and sneered. "Speaking of an explanation, the Holy Church of Light still needs an explanation from the Hai Cang Mountain. Why did the disciples of the Hai Cang Mountain come to the Li Dynasty to harm the people?"
"We want to know why he went to Dali to commit evil." The thin old man shook his head and said, "But he's already dead. We don't know either, so we can't give you an explanation."
"Don't tell me that Hai Cang Mountain's disciples are not responsible for what they've done?" Chu Li said coldly, "We can't just let him do as he pleases and just kill him in the end, and then push away our responsibility, can we?"
"Then what do you want?"
"Compensate the victims." Chu Li said in a low voice, "He founded the Sky-Traversing Camp and killed more than a hundred innocent people. Some of them had their entire families wiped out, and some of them still have relatives alive. Hai Cang Mountain should compensate those who are still alive."
"How many?" The thin elder snorted.
Chu Li said, "At least a thousand taels of silver."
"Are you able to find out who exactly was killed?"
"Of course!"
"Alright, if it's true, compensation isn't a big deal." The thin elder said, "This is Hai Cang Mountain's responsibility, but you have to give us an explanation for entering the Qiu Dynasty and killing people from Hai Cang Mountain!"
"What do you think?" Chu Li scoffed.
"Cripple your martial arts!" The thin elder said, "I'll spare your lives."
Chu Li chuckled. "How dare you guys!"
The thin elder said, "If you don't do it yourself, we'll do it for you!"
"That depends on how capable you are." Chu Li sneered. "Don't blame me for being merciless if you make a move!"
"I'd like to see how capable you are!" The thin elder scoffed and pounced at him, his sword flashing like lightning.
"Swoosh swoosh!" Two blade energies were shot at him.
The thin elder waved his sword to disperse the blade energies, and his body stopped moving.
Chu Li's strength had increased tremendously, and the power contained in the blade energies had increased tremendously. The thin elder's strength was no match for his, and his forward momentum slowed down.
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh!" Chu Li kept waving his hands, and four blade energies were shot out again.
The thin elder wielded his sword at lightning speed to protect himself, but he kept retreating. He only managed to catch his breath after taking four steps back, and his face darkened.
Chu Li scoffed. "Again?"
The thin elder was in despair. Zhao Dahe's Light Blade was amazing, and he could not get close to him with the Light Blade in his hand. As for Lil Guo and the rest, they could not attack him, or their lives would be in danger.
Chu Li said, "I won't hold back if you follow me again!"
He then glided away with Li Ruolan.
The nine middle-aged men saw that the thin elder did not move, and they stared at Chu Li and Li Ruolan as they walked away. They asked anxiously, "Master's Junior Liu, aren't we going after them?"
The thin elder turned to look at them, and said, "Go after them? You dare? "
"There are nine of us, I don't believe we can't defeat the two of them!" Lil Guo, who spoke earlier, said, "Master's Junior Liu, keep him occupied, and we'll deal with that woman. Once we subdue her, I don't believe he can escape!"
"Ignorant!" The thin elder scoffed.
"Master's Junior Liu," another middle-aged man said, "is Zhao Dahe really that powerful?"
"I'm no match for him, what do you think?" The thin elder scoffed.
"Master's Junior Liu, you're not much weaker than him, right?"
"Much weaker!"
"He's so young, how long can he have been practicing martial arts!"
"His Light Blade's level is extremely high. Once he's determined to kill, I can protect myself, but all of you will die here!" The thin elder scoffed. "Send a message to Elder Sun and the others by the river, and ask them to retreat!"
"Master's Junior Liu, why don't we meet up with Master's Junior Sun and the others, and attack together!" Lil Guo suggested.
The thin old man looked at him from head to toe.
Lil Guo was a little nervous under his gaze, and he touched his face.
"Hmph." The thin elder shook his head. "You're asking for death!"
"Master's Junior Liu, is Zhao Dahe that scary?"
"Scary? You can't even take a blade, and you still dare to approach him? You really don't know what death means! "
"You're exaggerating, right? He was only sneaking an attack earlier. "
"He doesn't need to sneak an attack, and you won't be able to take a blade. So, just send a signal and ask Elder Sun and the others to retreat!"
"Yes." Lil Guo nodded helplessly.
They turned around and returned to the canyon. When they arrived at the top of the cliff, they sent a signal. Suddenly, a bright long sword flashed in the sky, and it did not dissipate, like a flash of lightning.
Chu Li turned to look at it.
Li Ruolan looked over too. "Did they send a message to the people in front?"
Chu Li smiled. "Hai Cang Mountain is quite tactful. It should be a signal to retreat!"
"Coercion and temptation. Looks like you've convinced them. Now, you can retreat without any bloodshed." Li Ruolan smiled.
She had thought that Chu Li's words were useless, and it seemed like he was showing weakness. She did not expect it to be so effective. The elder did not chase after them, and it was obvious that he was not going to chase after them anymore.
