Chu Li returned to the small courtyard of the inn as dusk arrived and the lanterns were lit.
Xiao Qi, Lu Yurong, and Fa Yuan were waiting. When they saw him return safely, they smiled at him.
"Did you change your job?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chu Li shook his head. "It's not that easy. This mayor won't give up until he hits a brick wall."
"Looks like I'll have to do it again." Lu Yurong smiled. "Remember, I owe him another favor!"
Chu Li said, "Forget it, I don't dare to use you."
"Oh?" Lu Yurong glanced at him. "Are you going to let Third Lady do it alone? Third Lady and I work together quite well. Isn't that right, Third Lady? "
Xiao Qi ignored her provocation and asked calmly, "Chu Li, what do you want to do?"
Chu Li smiled. "You don't have to worry about this. I'll take care of it."
Lu Yurong looked at him curiously. "He must be on high alert now. It's impossible to kidnap that little guy without him knowing. The Protectors in the Town Defense Prefecture are weak. I suggest we just barge in and teach him a lesson. Otherwise, he'll be too arrogant and use you as a ladder!"
Xiao Qi nodded.
She also thought that this was a good idea. Using force to break through tricks. No matter how many tricks he had, it would be futile if he was not strong enough. As long as Chang Gui was aware of this, he would not provoke Chu Li and humiliate him.
She hated Chang Gui and saw through his evil intentions. She wanted to teach him a lesson and let him know that some people could not be humiliated or used.
Fa Yuan said, "I'll do it."
Even if Chu Li's martial arts was crippled, he was still a master who was on par or even better than him. He could not bear to see Chu Li being humiliated.
Chu Li smiled. "This time, you don't have to do anything. Using force won't help much."
"What do you want?" Lu Yurong scoffed. "So secretive!"
"Let me keep you in suspense. Just wait for the news tomorrow." Chu Li smiled.
Lu Yurong rolled her eyes.
Fa Yuan pressed his palms together and shook his head.

The morning sun was still shining but it was still dark. There was only a ray of light in the sky.
Chang Gui's grandson, Chang An, was a cute little boy who was sleeping soundly on the bed.
His mother, Xiuyun, held him in her arms. She was afraid of losing him, so she hugged him tightly, afraid that the child would be gone if she let go.
There are four Grandmasters guarding the door, and it's a house. Did someone come in last night? "
"Yes!" Xiu Yun nodded vigorously.
Chang Gui walked to the table and picked up the silver bracelet. Underneath the bracelet was a flower petal, dripping with dew.
His expression grew darker. "Chu Li!"
"Father, did Chu Li do it?" Xiu Yun asked.
Chang Gui waved his hand. "Don't worry about it. Don't bring An 'er out today!"
"Yes." Xiu Yun nodded vigorously.
Even if he wanted her to bring An 'er out to play, she wouldn't go. It was too dangerous outside. Who knew if she would be able to bring An' er back safely the next time she made a move!
Chang Gui came to the side of the bed and touched Chang An's head.
"Grandpa, An 'er wants to ride a horse!" Chang An stretched out his hands.
Chang Gui chuckled and said, "After we finish eating, Grandpa will take An 'er to ride a horse, okay?"
"Okay!" Chang An nodded obediently.
Chang Gui patted his head happily and left the house.
He sat in the main hall with a gloomy expression. He stroked his beard and furrowed his brows.
Chang Da whispered, "Master, are we going to deal with Chu Li?"
"Forget it!" Chang Gui scoffed. "It's no wonder he's so famous. He does have some strange abilities! Go and inform him that he's been transferred to the Town Defense Prefecture. There's no need for him to come. "
"Yes." Chang Da responded and asked softly, "Are we going to let him go?"
"We'll deal with him after his companions leave!" Chang Gui sneered. "I don't believe I can't deal with someone who doesn't know martial arts!"
"Yes." Chang Da laughed. "Master is wise. A man can advance and retreat at the same time!"
"Stop flattering me. Hurry and inform him!" Chang Gui scoffed.
Chang Da fist saluted and left.
—
Chu Li fist saluted as he watched Chang Da leave the courtyard. Lu Yurong looked at him in shock.
However, Xiao Qi knew that he had used a divine power.
His Limb of God could reach the little boy's house in an instant. He put down the silver bracelet and disappeared without a trace. It was shocking enough.
Since he could put down the silver bracelet without a trace, it would be easy for him to put down other things. He could even kill someone. This would make Chang Gui understand that his grandson's life was in Chu Li's hands.
Lu Yurong smiled. "It's a pity we didn't get to see the show!"
Fa Yuan pressed his palms together and chanted the name of Buddha. At least he managed to save his face.
Fa Yuan felt uncomfortable when he imagined Chu Li sweeping the streets.
Chu Li said, "He's just staying put for now. Once you leave, he'll play tricks again. Next time, we must teach him a lesson so he won't dare to do anything bad again!"
"Then we'll leave today. Let him make his move!" Lu Yurong smiled.
She turned to look at Xiao Qi. "What about Third Lady Xiao?"
Xiao Qi replied, "I'll leave in a few days."
"Oh, you're together already?" Lu Yurong smiled faintly. "Third Lady Xiao, aren't you being too unreserved? No matter what, you're still the Third Lady of the High Duke's Public House. You're as pure as ice and as clean as jade. "
Chu Li snapped, "Don't talk so much!"
Lu Yurong said, "Chu Li, this is a blessing in disguise. You took advantage of Third Lady Xiao's kindness and sympathy to make her stay."
Chu Li scoffed. "Do you want to stay too?"
"Do you dare to make me stay?" Lu Yurong chuckled and raised her eyebrows flirtatiously.
Xiao Qi frowned at her.
Chu Li quickly waved his hand. "Have a safe trip. I won't send you off!"
Fa Yuan pressed his palms together. "Then we'll bid farewell. We'll visit you again in a few days."
"Go, go." Chu Li waved his hand.
