"This … this …" Leng Qiu's eyes widened. She looked at Leng Qing and then at Chu Li.
Chu Li sighed, "You're still too inexperienced."
Leng Qing turned her head and stared at him.
Wasn't she able to defeat this Protector? Why was she so weak that she couldn't even take one hit?!
Chu Li said, "You've only trained for two days. They've been training for years. How could you win so quickly?"
"Isn't this swordsmanship amazing?" Leng Qing scoffed.
Chu Li smiled, "No matter how amazing the swordsmanship is, if you don't master it, it won't have any power. Now do you know how weak you are? If you don't train harder than you are now, you won't have a chance. "
He didn't say he could beat Leng Tao but the two girls understood.
They immediately recognized the reality and knew that their training was far from enough.
Song Liuying pursed her lips and smiled, "Head Chief …"
Chu Li smiled, "Does the Princess not want them to train?"
Song Liuying suddenly regretted. She shouldn't have pushed it. If she had agreed to the Head Chief, Young Qing and Young Qiu would have given up and stopped training.
"How about this, one month." Chu Li smiled, "Just let them train for a month. If they don't achieve anything, then they will give up completely and stop training. How about that?"
"Head Chief, you must keep your word!" Song Liuying nodded.
Chu Li looked at the two girls.
They pursed their red lips and nodded hard. They had the determination to burn their boats.
Chu Li nodded in satisfaction. At least his efforts were not in vain.
Song Liuying smiled and glanced at the two girls. It was as if she could see them obediently abandoning their swords.
This glance made them even angrier. They turned their anger into strength and decided to train with all their might. They would train even if they were not afraid of dying from exhaustion!
Not long after Song Liuying left, Chief Zhu's voice came from outside, "Head Chief, Miss Lu is here!"
Chu Li raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "Invite her in!"
"Yes," Chief Zhu quickly responded.
After a moment, Lu Yurong pushed the door open and entered. She nodded at the two girls and looked at Chu Li, "Let's find a place to talk!"
Chu Li saw her face was gloomy. Her aura was like a huge wave that covered the sky. It was as if she could not suppress it and would explode.
Chu Li knew something big happened. He nodded and the two arrived at Tianshu Courtyard.
The Tianshu Courtyard was empty. Yang Xu, Xue Ling, and Siao Shi were not there. No one dared to enter.
"What is it?" Chu Li asked.
Lu Yu Rong said, "Chu Li, I know you know the secret skill of resurrection!"
Chu Li frowned. "Who died?"
"Yes." Lu Yu Rong gritted her teeth and nodded, "Leng Feng was severely injured and died!"
"Hmm?" Chu Li looked at her in surprise.
Logically speaking, she would hide Leng Feng in the Public House, the safest place.
If Leng Feng were to die, then King Jing's throne would be in jeopardy, just like King An's situation. King Jing was not young anymore, it was hard to say if he could have any more children.
Lu Yurong said, "We'll talk about this later. Can we save him?"
Chu Li remained silent.
He would never admit this, or else it would be a source of trouble. Even the emperor would come looking for him. If he couldn't refuse, wouldn't he be exhausted to death?
Lu Yurong frowned. "Can't I?"
Her wave-like aura dissipated, instantly becoming weak. She looked at him absent-mindedly.
She used to be in high spirits, with a face as white as jade. Now, her face was as white as paper, without a trace of blood.
"How long has he been dead?" Chu Li asked.
"Half a day." Lu Yurong sighed. She looked at him, but her eyes seemed to be unfocused. "Someone assassinated him, I couldn't save him in time! … I know you have a way. "
She knew that Chu Li had saved Siao Shi, it was a secret skill of Eclipse Purloin.
Chu Li remained silent.
Lu Yurong pursed her red lips, she was unprecedentedly weak.
She was waiting for Chu Li to state his conditions.
Chu Li slowly said, "Where is he?"
"The Imperial Residence of King Jing!" Lu Yurong quickly said.
Chu Li said, "Bring him to Qing Yun Town!"
He did not want to use Eclipse Purloin in the Fairy's Capital. It would attract the attention of the emperor, or even masters from all over.
"Qing Yun Town?" Lu Yurong frowned at him.
Chu Li said, "Don't tell anyone about this, except for King Jing and his wife!"
"… Alright." Lu Yurong bit her red lips and stared at him.
Chu Li said, "I will wait for you at the North Gate of Qing Yun Town!"
Lu Yurong curtsied. Her body surged with an imposing manner again, she turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
Chu Li flashed and appeared in Qing Yun Town.
He first booked a restaurant, emptied everyone, stuck a few long swords on the roof, nailed a few axes, then went to the North Gate of Qing Yun Town.
Just as he arrived at the North Gate, Lu Yurong appeared like a stream of light, her arms carrying the already stiff Leng Feng.
Chu Li took it and fluttered into the restaurant.
Placing Leng Feng on the table, Chu Li used Eclipse Purloin.
Lu Yurong stood at the side, watching as Leng Feng slowly softened and finally opened his eyes.
She knew that Chu Li had the Eclipse Purloin but she still found it hard to believe. This was beyond the scope of martial arts, interfering with fate, it was really unbelievable.
Chu Li let out a sigh of relief. This time, it went smoothly.
He looked up at the dark clouds in the sky and said to Lu Yurong, "You guys leave quickly, my trouble is coming!"
"What's going on?" Lu Yurong frowned.
She could feel the terrifying pressure from the sky. Her heart was inexplicably palpitating. Her instincts kept reminding her to leave quickly, it was a disaster.
Chu Li sighed, "The price of Eclipse Purloin, the heavens can't stand it, they want me to pay with my life."
"That serious?" Lu Yurong quickly said, "Are you okay?"
Chu Li looked up at the darkening sky, "Between life and death, you guys leave first, in case you die again after just being saved."
He looked at Leng Feng and shook his head.
Leng Feng was still in a state of confusion, he did not understand what was going on.
Chu Li urged Lu Yurong again, "I don't want to be distracted, you guys leave quickly!"
"… Alright." Lu Yurong pursed her red lips, picked up Leng Feng and fluttered away.
Chu Li let out a sigh of relief.
"Boom …" A loud noise shook the heaven and earth.
It was as if there was only this loud noise between heaven and earth, all other sounds disappeared.
A few bolts of lightning instantly struck the restaurant Chu Li was in.
Under the lightning, Chu Li quietly sat at the table in front of the window of the restaurant, his expression calm and steady.
Lu Yurong and Leng Feng stood in a restaurant not far away, under the reflection of the lightning, she could even see him smiling at her.
"What happened to him?" Leng Feng said blankly, "How did he get struck by lightning?"
"Isn't it because of you!" Lu Yurong stared at Chu Li and said coldly, "In order to save you, he had to suffer this heavenly punishment! … You owe him your life! "
Leng Feng scoffed, "Who asked him to save me!"
Lu Yurong quickly turned her head to look at him, then turned back again, she did not say anything, only staring at Chu Li.
The thick lightning was blocked by the swords and knives on the roof, knocked away the swords and axes, instantly pierced through the restaurant, and landed on Chu Li.
Chu Li was immediately surrounded by lightning.
"It's over!" Lu Yurong sighed, her heart suddenly felt empty, as if she had lost something.
Leng Feng said excitedly, "He will definitely die!"
"Slap!" Lu Yurong turned her head and gave him a slap.
Leng Feng covered his face and stared at her angrily.
Lu Yurong said coldly, "Treating your savior like this, it's disappointing!"
