PS: The Fifteenth Guild has been born, Guild Master Jiaojiao!
"You really had the heart to do it back then." Chu Li took a sip of his tea and shook his head with a smile. "If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so hard-hearted."
"No matter how infatuated and pitiful they are, they are still my opponents." Lu Yurong looked at him coldly. "As long as they are my opponents, I will not show mercy!"
Chu Li smiled. "We're opponents, right?"
"What do you think?" Lu Yurong said, "I'll remember this time."
"I know, you'll come back." Chu Li nodded and said, "But now that Leng Feng has entered the Public House, aren't you afraid that he'll be in danger?"
"Don't you dare!" Lu Yurong frowned, her eyes suddenly turned cold.
She could hear the threat in Chu Li's words. If she were to get back at him this time, he would deal with Leng Feng.
Chu Li waved his hand. "I don't want to fall out with King Jing."
"If you act recklessly, the Yi Public House won't have peace anymore!" Lu Yu Rong said coldly.
Chu Li chuckled. "Forget it. We both know each other's weaknesses, so we can't do anything to each other. What secret skill did you use at the end?"
"You really were there!" Lu Yurong scoffed.
Chu Li said, "How can I not watch such a bustling scene? The power of this palm is boundless, even I can't block it. "
"As long as you understand!" Lu Yurong glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. "This is the Empyrean Fairy Palm. My cultivation level is still low. If my cultivation level was high enough, I would be able to use it in an instant. A casual palm strike would be the Empyrean Fairy Palm!"
"The Empyrean Fairy Power is indeed powerful!" Chu Li exclaimed.
Lu Yurong frowned at him. "Is the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait really that powerful?"
She went back and did a thorough research on the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait. She realized that it was rare to find a cultivator, and the only one who did was killed by Chu Li, who took away the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait.
Chu Li sighed and nodded. "The Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait is extremely powerful. I think everyone has gone down the wrong path. The torso tuning technique isn't as bad as it seems. Many ancient martial arts are torso tuning techniques."
"Times have changed. The present is different from the past." Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "How many of the lost skills from the past can be passed down forever? Many martial arts are no longer suitable for cultivation now."
"It's probably a matter of personal aptitude," Chu Li said.
Lu Yurong nodded slightly. "Our bloodline is getting weaker and weaker. If this continues, after a thousand years, our current martial arts might not be passed down."
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "Miss Lu has thought far ahead."
Lu Yurong rolled her eyes at him and scoffed. "Are there no disciples of the Holy Church of Light in your residence?"
Chu Li shook his head.
"Impossible!" Lu Yurong scoffed.
Chu Li said, "If that's the case, the Holy Church of Light doesn't have as many disciples as we thought. There's only one in the Imperial Residence of King Jing. The other residences might not have one."
"I hope so." Lu Yurong felt uncomfortable at the mention of this.
Then, he remembered how Chu Li had taken advantage of him.
San Niang was a Grandmaster, and Tian Shi was also a Grandmaster. Compared to his status as a Grandmaster, what was more valuable was his intelligence. One Tian Shi was equivalent to a few Grandmasters.
Chu Li stretched his body and smiled. "Master Xiao Tieying is getting married soon. When will the masters of the Ren Public House arrive? Isn't Miss Lu going to join in the fun? "
Lu Yu Rong calmly said, "I don't want to see Siao Tie Ying's proud face!"
Chu Li smiled. "That's a pity."
"I don't think it will be very lively!" Lu Yu Rong said.
Chu Li knew what she was implying.
The last time they killed ten Grandmasters in one fell swoop, establishing the Yi Public House's status and deterrence. This time's big wedding would probably be very peaceful, and there would not be any stupid people causing trouble.
"It's better to be prepared." Chu Li said.
The two of them chatted for a while more.
It seemed like a casual conversation, but every sentence was filled with intrigue. They were testing each other and looking for each other's weaknesses.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Xue Ling's voice was heard. "Master, there are two monks outside the residence. They want to visit His Royal Highness."
"Two monks?" Chu Li frowned. He used the Omniscient Mirror and saw the two monks outside.
One was a middle-aged monk with thick eyebrows and the other was a docile, ugly young monk.
Lu Yurong looked at him.
Chu Li said, "They're from the Tempest Temple."
"They're here so soon?" Lu Yurong was surprised.
Although she used her connections to push them, she did not expect the Tempest Temple to act so quickly. It had only been a few days and they were already here. It seemed that they valued the Asura Power Technique more than she imagined.
"Let Chief Zhu welcome them into the main hall." Chu Li said.
"Yes." Xue Ling responded.
"I'll meet the two monks too." Lu Yurong said.
Chu Li nodded.
The two of them finished their tea and went to the main hall.
There were two monks sitting in the main hall. They did not touch the tea that was served. They sat in the armchairs with the curtains down and fiddled with their prayer beads as if they were meditating.
Chu Li and Xue Ling entered. The monk with thick eyebrows and big eyes stood up and bowed. "I'm Fa Xiang. Greetings, Almsgiver Chu and this lady."
"Great Master Fa Xiang is from the Tempest Temple?" Chu Li closed fist saluted and smiled. "Apologies for not welcoming you earlier. Who is this young master?"
"I'm Ming Xing." The ugly monk quickly bowed.
Chu Li looked at Ming Xing.
"Almsgiver Chu, I'd like to meet His Royal Highness King An." Fa Xiang bowed. "I hope Almsgiver Chu can grant my request."
Chu Li said, "Great Master Fa Xiang, I'm really sorry. His Royal Highness is currently in isolated cultivation. He can't meet any guests."
"Is His Royal Highness King An cultivating the Asura Power Technique?"
"About that, forgive me for not being able to tell you." Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "We don't know what kind of martial arts His Royal Highness is cultivating."
Fa Xiang raised his eyebrows and looked at him calmly. "Almsgiver Chu, His Royal Highness King An is cultivating the Asura Power Technique!"
"Oh?" Chu Li smiled. "How did you know?"
"I've cultivated the Asura Power Technique before." Fa Xiang said slowly. "I know the hardships of cultivating the Asura Power Technique. That's why I'm here to advise His Royal Highness King An not to cultivate it anymore. The sea of bitterness is boundless.
You'll have to wait until His Royal Highness is done with his isolated cultivation. "Chu Li smiled.
"I'm just afraid that it'll be too late by then!" Fa Xiang pressed his palms together and said slowly, "Almsgiver Chu, for the sake of the people of the world, I hope Almsgiver Chu can grant my wish to meet His Royal Highness King An."
Chu Li shook his head. "His Royal Highness is in isolated cultivation. No one can disturb him. The one guarding him is Revered Sir Xu Ning."
"Xu Ning?" Fa Xiang frowned. "He's already out of the temple?"
"So the two Great Masters still recognize him." Chu Li smiled. "We're really fated. If that's the case, let's ask Revered Sir Xu Ning for his opinion."
"Then I'll have to trouble Almsgiver Chu to lead the way." Fa Xiang pressed his palms together.
Chu Li fist saluted and left the living room with Lu Yurong. They soon arrived outside the cultivation courtyard.
A cattail hassock was placed outside the cultivation courtyard. Xu Ning was sitting on it, motionless like a statue.
Hearing footsteps, Xu Ning slowly opened his eyes. He quietly looked at Chu Li, then at Fa Xiang and Xing Ming.
"Xu Ning!" Fa Xiang pressed his palms together and said, "I didn't expect you to leave the temple so soon!"
Xu Ning calmly said, "What business do you have with the Tempest Temple?"
"Is His Royal Highness King An cultivating the Asura Power Technique inside?" Fa Xiang asked.
Xu Ning calmly nodded.
Fa Xiang's face darkened. He shouted, "Nonsense!"
Xu Ning looked at him without a change in expression.
Fa Xiang said, "It's not like you don't know the consequences of cultivating the Asura Power Technique. How can you allow His Royal Highness King An to cultivate it?!"
"His Royal Highness is aware," Xu Ning said. "I've told His Royal Highness about it, but he insisted.
