In the main hall of Iron Eagle Island.
In the evening, the main hall was dyed red by the setting sun.
Chu Li, Siao Tieying and Siao Baihe sat together and talked.
"Is he really dead?" Siao Tieying's handsome face was gloomy, he said coldly, "How dare they!"
"Sigh …, it's a pity." Chu Li shook his head, "Imperial Inspector Hu had a great reputation, he was loved by the people."
Siao Baihe said, "Imperial Inspector Hu's death had a huge impact on our Public House. If we don't handle it well, I'm afraid the people will be disgusted, they might even distrust the Public House!"
"Exactly. I've already sent people to spread the news, it was done by the Green Hill." Chu Li nodded.
"Is it really the Green Hill?" Siao Tieying's face was gloomy.
Chu Li shook his head, "It's the Holy Church of Light."
"The Holy Church of Light?" Siao Tieying frowned, "It's them again?"
"They are a group of people who are not afraid of death. We can't provoke them now, it's better not to. If someone really spread the news, we'll be in a difficult situation. "Chu Li sighed.
Siao Baihe quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, if someone spread the news, should the Public House deal with the Holy Church of Light or not? If we deal with them, we're not strong enough, if we don't deal with them, we'll be looked down upon by the people and the sects in the martial arts world. Chief Chu Li, this is a good move, preemptive strike. "
Chu Li said helplessly, "There's no other way."
"Then are we really going to take care of the Green Hill?" Siao Tieying smiled, "Last time we suffered a loss from them, this time we have to make up for it and teach them a lesson. This time they're the ones in the wrong, let's see if they can still unite the sects."
Chu Li shook his head.
Siao Tieying was startled, "Are we not going to do anything?"
Chu Li said, "Master Siao, this time we can't do anything to the Green Hill, we have to be fair and announce to the public that it's not the Green Hill's doing."
"Isn't that showing weakness?" Siao Tieying pondered, "Will the Green Hill think that we're afraid?"
Chu Li laughed, "Who would think that the Public House is afraid of the Green Hill?"
Xiao Baihe smiled, "It's more like Green Hill is afraid of us, there's no reason for us to be afraid of them, everyone understands this."
"So we're going to let them go?" Siao Tieying was reluctant.
The death of a single Public House Protector was enough to make his heart ache. Now that six of them had died, he hated the Green Hill and Feng Huang Hill to the core. Killing more than a hundred of them was not enough to quench his hatred. He wished he could kill them all. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough, so he could not do as he pleased.
Chu Li said, "Master Xiao Tieying, think about it. Everyone knows that we hold a grudge against the Green Hill. If there's a chance, we'll definitely teach them a lesson. Yet, we still speak according to the facts and act fairly. If that's the case, what would everyone think?"
"What would they think?" Siao Tieying asked.
Chu Li said slowly, "They will trust the High Duke's Public House even more. Even the factions in the martial arts world will trust the High Duke's Public House. This kind of trust is the hardest to come by. It doesn't matter if we're overbearing, but we have to be fair in our actions. What's right is right, and what's wrong is wrong. We won't take revenge because of personal grudges!"
"This is prestige, right?" Xiao Baihe sighed: "This kind of prestige can often create miraculous effects."
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Siao Tieying shook his head and looked at him.
Chu Li smiled. "Does Master Xiao Tieying find it inappropriate?"
No matter how good his plan was, no matter how skillful his methods were, without Master Xiao Tieying's approval, he would not be able to execute it.
Siao Tieying sighed, "You really know how to squeeze oil out of a stone. You can even make such a wonderful use out of such a matter. … I just feel that I've let Imperial Inspector Hu down."
Chu Li said, "Imperial Inspector Hu's success is due to his family background, and his failure is also due to his family background."
Siao Tieying and Siao Baihe nodded.
Everything is a double-edged sword. Not everything is good. Imperial Inspector Hu had a good family background. That's why he was able to become an Imperial Inspector, but it was also because of his family background that he lost his life.

"We're going back?" Siao Shi frowned slightly.
The two of them stood in the gazebo of the Island of Symphony. The clear surface of the lake reflected the setting sun. It was like pieces of red brocade, gorgeous and colorful.
Siao Shi was originally in a good mood. When she heard what Chu Li said, she became a little gloomy. She frowned and said, "I still wanted to go to the Spirit Cranes Peak to play with the Spirit Cranes. “
When you go back, you have to be careful of King An. He's full of evil tricks. "
"Of course." Chu Li smiled. "I've been guarding against him. Are we going to the Spirit Cranes Peak now?"
"You're not going back?"
"We'll talk about it tomorrow. We can't go back too soon." Chu Li smiled.
Outsiders knew that his Light-body Technique was good. But to what extent, few knew. If he returned to the Fairy's Capital in an instant, and the Secret Guardians Hall knew about it, they would definitely use him with all their might.
So he had to hide his skills. It was considered a backup plan.
He held Siao Shi's slim waist. After a few flashes, they appeared at the Spirit Cranes Peak.
The Spirit Cranes Peak was dyed red by the setting sun. The lush green forest was everywhere. The spiritual energy was overwhelming. It was unusually refreshing.
As soon as he appeared, he heard the chirping of the baby crane.
Although it was small, its voice was so loud that the entire Spirit Cranes Peak could hear it.
Two Spirit Cranes stood on top of the tree. They looked at the two baby cranes playing under the tree. They glanced at Chu Li and Siao Shi's direction and ignored them. It was as if they did not see them.
The baby crane that was saved by Chu Li flapped its wings. It ran as if it was flying. It rushed over in a flash.
Chu Li reached out to hug it. He staggered and almost fell.
He secretly clicked his tongue. He had such strength at such a young age. He was really blessed by nature.
Following the improvement of the Heavenly Demonic Power, the Art of White Tiger, the Sentient Menace and the Life and Death Scripture, his strength was getting stronger. He was already so strong that he could defeat an Innate Master without inner energy.
But he was still no match for the baby crane. The difference between humans and Spirit Cranes was really too big.
The baby crane used its wings to pat Chu Li affectionately. It used its long beak to rub against him.
Chu Li was annoyed by its enthusiasm. He patted its head. The other baby crane pounced over and rubbed its long beak against him. Chu Li was embarrassed by the two cranes.
Siao Shi was envious and amused. She could not stop laughing.
The baby crane from before looked at Siao Shi curiously. It used its long beak to rub against her arm. Siao Shi's body tilted and was about to fall.
Chu Li quickly held her.
Siao Shi felt a strong force coming from its long beak. She could not resist it. She could not help but exclaim, "What a strong force!"
"They are blessed by nature. It's enviable." Chu Li shook his head and smiled.
Chu Li activated the Life and Death Scripture and channeled the surrounding spiritual energy into the two baby cranes' bodies.
They immediately stood still. Their eyes that were filled with spiritual energy closed. It was as if they had turned into statues.
"What happened?" Siao Shi asked.
Chu Li smiled, "They are cultivating."
"They know how to cultivate?"
"I guess it's an instinct." Chu Li shook his head, "You can learn."
"My body is different. How can I learn?" Siao Shi smiled.
Chu Li said, "You can learn their breathing rhythm."
"Alright." Siao Shi thought it was fun. She listened to Chu Li's instructions.
"Phew … phew …" Chu Li said slowly.
Siao Shi breathed along.
Chu Li said, "Inhale … inhale … inhale, inhale, inhale … inhale … inhale!"
Siao Shi stopped and frowned at him.
