"What way?" scoffed Siao Shi.
She regretted it as soon as she asked. It was a waste of time. It would be weird if Lu Yurong would tell her.
Lu Yurong smiled. "From what I know, Meng Jian has opponents too."
Siao Shi looked at her. "Are you that kind?"
"Two! I only need two and I can get rid of Meng Jian." Lu Yurong smiled.
"… You don't have that many in your residence! You think too highly of yourself!" scoffed Siao Shi.
Lu Yurong said, "Not the Holy Church of Light. Anything else will do!"
"… Alright, I promise you. Think of a way to get rid of Meng Jian so he won't be an annoyance in the residence." said Siao Shi.
Lu Yurong said, "You should know that this is just a temporary solution. He will still find Chu Li in the end."
Siao Shi said, "Once he has a firm foothold in the Secret Guardians Hall, Meng Jian will be nothing!"
"That's true." Lu Yurong nodded and sighed. "I didn't expect Second Lady Siao to be so smart and powerful."
Chu Li's position in the Secret Guardians Hall would be awkward but it was also an opportunity. Once he has a firm foothold, he would have the help of the Secret Guardians Hall and it would be like adding wings to a tiger. If this was Siao Shi's plan, then she would have to admit defeat.
"Same here," said Siao Shi.
She was just going with the flow. The situation had developed this way and the Emperor's decision was out of her expectations.
Leng Ying looked at Lu Yurong and Siao Shi and pouted.
Compared to them, she was a fool. She could not understand what they were saying. It was as if they were talking in riddles.
"Let's go." Lu Yurong turned and left.
Siao Shi waved her hand.
Xue Ling and Yang Xu nodded and sent them out of the Tianshu Courtyard all the way to the entrance of the Imperial Residence.
On their way back to the Tianshu Courtyard, Meng Jian suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
He closed fist saluted with a handsome smile. "Are the two ladies the Consort's maids?"
"Yes, who are you?" asked Yang Xu gently.
Meng Jian smiled. "I am Meng Jian. I would like to see the Consort. I hope the two ladies can help me."
Yang Xu was stunned and shook her head. "Young Master Meng, the Consort does not see male guests. Is there something you need? We can pass on the message to Wangfei. "
"Very well, I would like to meet Chief Chu," said Meng Jian.
"That's unfortunate." Yang Xu shook her head and smiled. "The Head Chief is currently in Isolated Cultivation at the Secret Guardians Hall. Young Master, you can try going to the Secret Guardians Hall."
Meng Jian's burning gaze swept across the two ladies as if he could see through their hearts. "I wonder when Chief Chu will come out of seclusion?"
"How would we know as maids?" Yang Xu smiled and said, "The Head Chief isn't sure either. It could be a month, or it could be two months. It depends on the situation of his cultivation."
"Thank you very much." Meng Jian smiled.
Yang Xu smiled and said, "Young Master Meng, you don't have to be so polite."
Meng Jian watched as the two girls disappeared into the Moon Gate. The smile on his face disappeared and was replaced with a cold smile.
He had the secret skill of Amethyst Mountain. At night, he would appear silently outside the house of the maidservants and Imperial Guards. He would eavesdrop on the corners of the walls and gather information.
Through everyone's private discussions, he already knew that before his brother left the Imperial Residence, he seemed to have poisoned the Wangfei and almost killed her.
Since his brother had done such a thing, he naturally had to escape and sneak out of the Imperial Residence. Unfortunately, in the end, he could not escape from the Wangfei and was killed by her!
No matter how beautiful Princess Siao was, she was the first beauty of the Great Ji Dynasty. Since she killed his brother, he had to kill her to avenge his brother!
Unfortunately, Chu Li did not return.
He did not have to guess much to know that since it was Princess Siao's assassination, the one who executed it must be Chu Li, the most loyal lackey. If he wanted to comfort his brother's soul in heaven, he would kill both of them!
As for the fact that Chu Li's martial arts was powerful, he did not think much of it.
From his perspective, the four major sects and the martial arts world were not on the same level.
The key was martial arts.
The martial arts of the four major sects were worlds apart from the rest of the sects. Cultivating the martial arts of the four major sects would allow one to ascend to the Enlightened Mastery's Boundary. As for the other sects in the martial arts world, becoming a Grandmaster was already considered extremely lucky.
The Grandmaster was only the starting point of the four major sects' martial arts. It only existed for the sake of becoming an Enlightened Master.
Chu Li was born in the Yi Public House and cultivated the martial arts of the Public House.
No matter how powerful the Public House was, it could not compare to the four major sects. Even if they could steal the martial arts of the four major sects, they would not be able to cultivate it well.
Chu Li's fame today was mostly due to his intelligence and his ability to do things. Furthermore, he was young. The same martial arts on an elder would not be as impressive.
He paced with his hands behind his back and slowly returned to the courtyard.
He had some concerns about the Secret Guardians Hall. It was not a wise move to go there to kill people. Provoking the Secret Guardians Hall would be asking for trouble.
He slowly sat by the stone table and smiled.
Seeing the two women, he knew the location of the Tianshu Courtyard.
He would go explore at night to see if there was a chance to kill Siao Shi and lure Chu Li out.
After killing Chu Li, he would leave the Fairy's Capital and live a carefree life.
Prince An was rather afraid of Chu Li and had the intention to kill him. If he killed him, it would be in line with his wishes. He might not really send people to kill him, it would just be for show. After all, he was born in the Amethyst Mountain.
It was a pity for Princess Siao, the first beauty of the Great Ji Dynasty.
He wondered how Princess Siao compared to Lu Yu Rong.
Although he could not see Lu Yu Rong's face clearly, looking at her graceful figure and alluring eyes, he knew that she was an absolute beauty. She had a cold, fairy-like temperament that was especially attractive to him. If he could bring her into his room, his ten years of hard work in the Amethyst Mountain would not be in vain!
Tonight, he wanted to see the beauty of Princess Siao. He wanted to see how beautiful the first beauty of the Great Ji Dynasty was!
As he was lost in his thoughts, footsteps came from outside. Chief Zhu's voice was heard, "Young Master Meng, a master wishes to see you!"
"Master?" Meng Jian frowned. When he heard the word monk, he immediately thought of the Tempest Temple. He asked, "Which sect is the monk from?"
"The Tempest Temple," answered Chief Zhu respectfully.
"I won't see him," said Meng Jian.
"Amitabha Buddha …" A Buddhist chant was heard. It was calm and leisurely, like a lake that slowly spread out and echoed throughout the entire Imperial Residence. "Almsgiver Meng, we meet again!"
"Fa Wu! You're haunting me!" Meng Jian said coldly.
A young monk in a grey robe fluttered into the courtyard. He pressed his palms together and bowed. "Almsgiver Meng, you've made it easy for me to find you!"
This monk in grey was about twenty years old. He was tall and straight with an average appearance. However, his nose was tall and straight, which added a sense of heroism to his average face. It was unforgettable. His eyes were calm and gentle, and he wore a faint smile.
"Fa Wu, why must you make things difficult for me? I've always given face to the Tempest Temple and did not lower myself to your level. Don't be so ungrateful! "Meng Jian said.
"I've reached a bottleneck and would like to spar with a master of equal strength. Fa Wu smiled and said, "Benefactor Meng's martial arts are on par with this little monk's, it is the most suitable. This kind of sparring is not only beneficial to this little monk, but benefactor Meng will also benefit from it, why not?"
"I'm not interested in fighting with you! If you don't leave, I'll have no choice but to use my trump card!"
