The lanterns were lit and the Tianshu Courtyard was as bright as day.
Chu Li sat by the stone table which was filled with dishes. He held a pair of chopsticks and ate slowly, absent-mindedly.
Siao Shi wore a light yellow gown and sat opposite him. Her face was as white as jade. She held a bowl and looked at him, "What happened again?"
Chu Li put down his chopsticks and took a sip from the white jade cup, "Trouble again."
"What trouble?" Siao Shi put down her bowl and said nonchalantly, "Tell me."
She did not care much about life and death, nor did she care about trouble.
Chu Li explained the situation to her.
Siao Shi said, "So, they're here to steal the secret manual?"
Chu Li nodded, "Of course they will. If it were me, I would do the same."
"Then what's there to say? Let's fight." Siao Shi scoffed and said, "We'll kill whoever comes. Let's see if they still dare to steal it!"
"I'm just afraid they'll use other methods." Chu Li frowned, "They'll deal with you."
"Then come." Siao Shi did not care, "It depends on their abilities. … They won't kill me. If I die, you won't hand over the secret manual. You'll have time to save yourself."
Chu Li laughed.
Siao Shi said, "If it doesn't work, go to the Spirit Cranes Peak?"
"It's not safe." Chu Li shook his head.
He did not know if other spirit beasts would smell her scent if she stayed for too long. The abilities of spirit beasts should not be underestimated. Many of them were beyond imagination.
If spirit cranes had natural enemies, then staying at the Spirit Cranes Peak would be suicide. To humans, the battle between spirit beasts was like encountering a Grandmaster who did not know martial arts. It could easily lead to death. Siao Qi was fine.
She ran out when things went south. Siao Shi did not know martial arts, so she could only wait for death.
As the two of them were talking, a deep shout came from outside.
"Assassins!" Zhu Tianhua's thunderous voice rang. His tall and burly body leaped out of the courtyard and faced the ten men in black.
Liu Xing and the others rushed to the Tianshu Courtyard to protect Siao Shi.
Chu Li said, "Focus on them. I'll stay here!"
"Yes, Head Chief!" Liu Xing and the others said.
Chu Li's voice resounded in the sky above King An's Imperial Residence. It was clearly heard by everyone in King An's Imperial Residence, "Zheng Lide, protect the Royal Highness. Everyone else, stay in the house and don't come out. The rest of the Grandmasters Protectors, annihilate the assassins. Leave none alive!"
"Yes!" Shouts came from all directions.
Chu Li turned to look at Xiao Qi and Liu Xu. "I'll send you off first."
"Let's go to Qing Yun Town," Siao Shi said, "I'll just sleep there tonight."
Chu Li nodded lightly.
He wrapped his arms around the waists of the two girls and suddenly disappeared from Tianshu Courtyard. In the next moment, he appeared in a small courtyard in Qing Yun City.
He looked about him and felt relieved.
Almost no one in Qing Yun Town knew that they had been here, and their identities had never been leaked. As long as Yang Baoshu did not make any mistakes, no one would disturb him.
At that moment, Yang Baoshu was running around in the courtyard while his mother chased after him with a broom. Her face was red with anger.
Chu Li shook his head with a smile and returned to the Imperial Residence of King An.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …" The palms collided, and the sounds of fists colliding could be heard.
There were six Grandmasters in the Imperial Residence of King An against ten Grandmasters, and they were at a disadvantage.
Chu Li sneered to himself.
Ten Grandmasters was not something that could be easily gathered. Even in the Fairy's Capital, it was almost the number of Protectors of a Royal Highness.
These people were trying to kill him in one go!
The Heavenly Demonic Orb fell into his precordium, and infinite energy surged in his body. In a flash, he appeared behind a masked man in black and punched him. The Shura Palm was silent and fast like a ghost.
"Bang!" The masked man was alarmed. He wanted to dodge but he was powerless. The palm energy had already landed on his back. He was shot more than ten meters away and landed in a courtyard. He was silent and motionless.
Chu Li extended his index finger with his other hand and pointed.
"Poof!" A soft sound was heard, and a masked man in black was hit by the Petrifying Finger.
Chu Li suddenly appeared behind him and pressed his Shura Palm.
"Bang!" The masked man in black was sent flying.
Spiritual energy surged in from all directions. The Scripture of Duality circulated quickly and quickly replenished his inner energy.
Chu Li's left hand finger energy attacked another person.
This was a skinny masked man in black. Under the black cloth was a lean face, and he was about fifty years old.
As soon as the Petrifying Finger was unleashed, the thin black-clothed masked man sensed that something was amiss. He moved sideways to evade, but another finger attack had already arrived. It was soundless, and apart from the gentle night breeze, it did not arouse his vigilance at all.
When the finger energy was in front of him, he was alarmed. The Spear Finger Attack had already hit him.
It was like a gentle breeze, but once it entered his body, it did not seem to have any power.
His heart suddenly contracted as if a pair of scissors was cutting it.
He used all his strength to resist the scissors, and his inner energy protected his heart so that it would not be cut.
"Bang!" He felt a slight pain in his back, and a cold force instantly rushed into him.
His inner energy could not resist this cold force at all. Just as it was about to devour him, the inner energy suddenly changed. The cold became hot, and his whole body felt like it was on fire.
His vision darkened, and he could not wake up anymore.
Chu Li swung his left hand, and a cold light shot toward the masked man in black five steps away.
The masked man in black pushed out his palm, trying to deflect the flying blade.
"Chi!" The flying blade pierced through his palm without any resistance.
The flying blade dodged his palm and continued forward, shooting into his right chest and out from his back with a spray of blood.
Chu Li shot another blade.
The masked man wanted to move, but he could not. All the energy in his body seemed to be drained from the wound on his right chest. He felt weak all over, and when his movements slowed down, he could only watch as the flying blade shot into his heart.
He could not hold on any longer, and he fell limply.
Chu Li took down three masked men in black in the blink of an eye.
Zhu Tianhua and the others were energized. Six people against seven, but they had the upper hand.
Under Chu Li's extraordinary strength, the power of the flying blade increased by a few times. Even if he did not use the Infinite Azure Sea, the power was still shocking. At close range, it was almost impossible to dodge, and only those with the best Light-body Technique would have a chance to escape.
He laughed coldly, and appeared behind a masked man in black in a flash.
The masked man in black shouted, turned his head, and struck out with his palm.
He was prepared for this move from Chu Li.
Chu Li struck out with his palm.
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound, and Chu Li stood firmly on the roof. The masked man in black took three steps back, and broke a few tiles.
Chu Li threw out a silver light with his left hand.
"Ha!" A cold light suddenly shone from the masked man's waist, and he held his blade in front of him.
"Ding …" The flying blade hit the blade.
The long blade hit the masked man's chest, and his breath stagnated.
Another cold light shot out, piercing through his heart, and flew into the night sky with a spray of blood.
"Go!" The other six masked men saw that the situation was not good, and if this continued, they would definitely die!
Chu Li laughed coldly. "Stop them, don't leave a single one alive!"
"Yes!" Zhu Tianhua and the others were energized. They would rather both sides suffer than let them escape.
Chu Li circled around them like a shadow.
He shot out Spear Finger Strike, and at the same time, he shot out Petrifying Finger.
The Spear Finger Strike was silent, and the Petrifying Finger was invisible. They could only rely on the warning signs of Grandmasters to avoid them.
These two martial arts were specially created by the Tempest Temple to restrain Grandmasters. They were the unique martial arts of the Tempest Temple, and they had never seen them before, so they did not know how to avoid them.
Soon, two of them were hit by the Petrifying Finger, and another two by the Spear Finger.
Chu Li's flying blade shot out, and four of them died.
