Chu Li smiled. "How do you know that His Royal Highness would not dare to offend Amethyst Mountain?"
"Looks like the Head Chief still doesn't know how powerful Amethyst Mountain is." Meng Zhi smiled proudly and said, "Among the four major sects, the Tempest Temple is the leader. The other three sects are the Titanium Temple, the Amethyst Mountain, and the Green Deer Cliff. Among the three sects, the Amethyst Mountain is the most mysterious. Even the Royal Highness has to be careful when facing the Amethyst Mountain. If you offend the Amethyst Mountain, don't even think about having it easy!"
"The Amethyst Mountain has an Enlightened Master?" Chu Li asked.
"Although there aren't any, there are plenty of Grandmasters!" Meng Zhi said, "Head Chief should understand that although they are both Grandmasters, there is a huge difference between them. The Grandmasters of the Amethyst Mountain are different from the Grandmasters of the martial arts world!"
Chu Li nodded.
Acquired Stage, Innate Stage, Grandmaster Stage, and Enlightened Master Stage were just like people of different ages. Acquired Stage were babies, Innate Stage were children, Grandmasters were youths, and Enlightened Masters were in their prime.
In a battle between martial arts masters, it was very difficult to skip levels.
It was like a baby wanting to beat up a child, a child wanting to beat up a youth, and a youth wanting to beat up a middle-aged man. There was almost no chance of winning. However, as a youth, everyone's martial arts cultivation method, level of attainment in their martial arts, as well as their respective cultivation, would affect their strength. The difference was like heaven and earth.
In the eyes of the Grandmasters from the four major sects, the Grandmasters from the normal sects were very weak and could not even withstand a single blow.
Therefore, the people of the martial arts world feared the four major sects and did not dare to provoke them.
Meng Zhi knew all these, so he was sure that Chu Li wouldn't dare to kill him. Once Chu Li killed him, his Big Brother would definitely avenge him. Although Chu Li was mighty in front of him, he was nothing in front of his Big Brother!
When he thought of this, he stared at Chu Li excitedly. "Head Chief, the situation is more important than the person. If you offend the Amethyst Mountain, you might even implicate the High Duke's Public House. Why do you have to do this? It's not a big deal for you to suffer a little!"
Chu Li sighed. "I won't kill you myself. It'll be the same if I send someone over."
"Then Big Brother will look for you too!" Meng Zhi laughed, "Don't even think of hiding it from my Big Brother!"
"Even if I don't kill you, you'll tell your big brother and let him deal with me, right?" Chu Li shook his head and looked at the hare on the shelf.
The sizzling oil kept coming out and dripping onto the fire, making "pa pa" sounds. The fragrance was alluring.
"Yes." Meng Zhi looked at his helpless expression and became even more excited.
Chu Li thought about it and shook his head helplessly.
Everyone had a weakness, but when it came to someone as selfish as Meng Zhi, there was nothing that could be used. It was useless to use his family, it was also useless to use his lover, what he cared about was only power and status.
"Looks like I have no choice but to kill you." Chu Li shook his head. "What's the name of the person you sent?"
"Don't even think about finding out." Meng Zhi looked at him with a smile, as if he was enjoying every trace of helplessness on Chu Li's face, "If I die, he will find my big brother and tell him that you killed me."
Chu Li asked, "Where does he live?"
"Do you think I will tell you?" Meng Zhi chuckled, "Head Chief, unless you become an Enlightened Master, otherwise, it's better for you to behave yourself, lest you implicate the Princess and make her suffer."
Chu Li squinted his eyes as he thought of Siao Shi's agony when she was poisoned.
Her face was pale with a layer of green, but her expression was very calm, as if she did not feel anything.
Chu Li knew that she was in great pain. The poison was wreaking havoc in her internal organs and even her blood. It would be strange if she was not in pain, but she did not complain at all.
"Actually, you shouldn't have said so much." Chu Li sighed and lightly pointed his finger.
The Spear Finger Strike was fast and silent.
Meng Zhi was alarmed and quickly retreated, but he did not manage to avoid the Spear Finger Strike. His shoulder was hit.
No matter where the Spear Finger Strike hit, the arteries of the heart would break and the person would die immediately.
Chu Li gave him two more finger strikes to make sure that it was safe.
He pointed with his right hand while his left hand grabbed the hare and slowly placed it on the shelf. Then, he dug a hole and buried Meng Zhi in it.
The Tempest Temple and the Amethyst Mountain were enemies, so it was impossible for Meng Jian to find the murderer.
The Spear Finger Strike was a secret of the Tempest Temple, only direct disciples could learn it. Other than the disciples of the Tempest Temple, no one else could cultivate it.
Chu Li was not in a hurry to leave. He sat at the side and waited for a long time. No one came.
After such a long delay, even if there were miraculous pills, there was no way to save Meng Zhi. Only then did he feel relieved and disappeared again, appearing in a gambling house in the Fairy's Capital. No one in the Fairy's Capital would care about the death of a gambling addict.

He returned to the outskirts of the Horse Racing Town and continued his cultivation.
He thought that the energy in the little black stone was endless and could support his cultivation for a long time. He did not expect that after ten days, the little black stone suddenly lost its energy and turned into dust.
The water droplet above his heart had become half the size of his heart. It could be called a water ball. It was faintly discernible, as if it existed in his body, but also as if it existed in another void. It gave him a very strange feeling.
The water ball in such a state could not be felt by others.
Unfortunately, it only reached the third level. The little black stone could not help him to break through to the fourth level.
That night, he returned to the Imperial Residence of King An.
The lanterns were lit and he sat at the stone table in the Tianshu Courtyard. The courtyard was brightly lit, as if it was daytime.
Siao Shi covered herself with a thin blanket and leaned on the couch. She smiled and looked happy.
Yang Xu and Xue Ling sat at the side, the four of them chatting and laughing.
"You're finally back," Siao Shi smiled, "If you didn't come back, I would have been annoyed to death by Leng Qiu!"
Chu Li smiled, "Why did she annoy you?"
"She came every morning and afternoon to ask when you're coming back. Did you forget about the Hunting Ceremony?" Siao Shi's jade-like face looked even whiter under the light, exuding a warm glow.
"The Hunting Ceremony …" Chu Li smiled, "She still remembers."
"She talks about it every day. How could she forget?" Siao Shi said, "It's just a few days … How many more days, Xue Ling?"
"Three days." Xue Ling smiled, "These two days, Miss Qiu is going crazy."
Chu Li sighed, "It's not bad to be carefree. How's the Imperial Residence of King Cheng?"
"It's finally quietened down." Xue Ling said, "Ever since those three people came, the Imperial Residence of King Cheng didn't gain any benefits. Now, the people in the residence dare to go out."
"Hmm …" Chu Li was surprised.
Although Liu Xing and the other two people's martial arts were strong, it was not enough to make Chen Kong fearful. It seemed that King An made a move and overpowered Chen Kong. Otherwise, with King Cheng's temper, he would not let it go. He would beat King An until his face was covered in dirt.
King An's aura was eerie. It was indeed different from before. His body contained a tyrannical power, which made him very afraid.
"They are also respectful to me." Siao Shi pursed her lips and smiled, "It's because of you, right? Everyone is saying that the Head Chief is broad-minded. "
"If King An heard this, he would definitely be angry." Chu Li shook his head and smiled. He looked to the west and suddenly said, "Alright, it's getting late. I should go back and rest. You guys should sleep early too."
"So early?" Xue Ling was surprised.
Siao Shi frowned and looked at him.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. He stood up and walked out, "When Miss Qiu comes tomorrow, tell her not to worry. I will make time!"
After he said this, he was already out of Tianshu Courtyard.
His body suddenly sped up and returned to his own courtyard.
As soon as he closed the courtyard door, a shadow floated down from the top of the wall. It was as graceful as a leaf and silent. It was King An.
