When Chu Li returned to the backyard of the Ren Public House, it was already early in the morning. Lu Yurong was reading a book in the gazebo with a calm expression. The gazebo was brightly lit and the maids had already left.
Lu Yu Shu was pacing back and forth outside the gazebo, anxious and restless.
After walking a few more times, he stopped and said, "Little sister, is there really no problem with the surname Chu?"
Lu Yurong's clear eyes glanced at the top of the scroll, then back to the scroll, ignoring him.
Lu Yu Shu came to the gazebo and sat down. He picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp. "If he bears a grudge and seeks revenge on Xiao Yu, I …"
"What will he do?" Lu Yurong asked.
"Will we hand Xiao Yu over to the other side?" Lu Yushu asked.
Lu Yurong laughed. "You think he's that kind of person?"
"Hmph, there's no knowing what's in a man's heart!" Lu Yushu said, "I just don't like him. He's a guy with a belly full of evil tricks. You should stay away from him. Little sister, although you're smart, you're still lacking compared to him."
Lu Yurong could not help but laugh. "In your eyes, I'm not as good as him?"
"In any case, you won't be able to please him." Lu Yushu's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.
"What did you say, Second Brother?" Lu Yurong narrowed her eyes.
Lu Yushu hurriedly waved his hand. "Pretend I didn't say anything, little sister. Anyway, you can't let your guard down against him, you have to be on guard against him at all times!"
"Alright, I'll be on guard at all times." Lu Yurong scoffed, "Father told you to tell me this, right?"
"… Well," Lu Yu Shu said uncomfortably, "I can't hide anything from little sister."
Lu Yurong scoffed, "If he wants to say it himself, why doesn't he do it himself?"
"I don't dare." Lu Yu Shu mumbled to himself, but when he saw Lu Yu Rong glaring at him, he quickly smiled and said, "Dad said that he's a grown man, so it's not appropriate for him to say these things. Anyway, all men are bad, so there's nothing wrong with being careful."
"Tell him to stop worrying!" Lu Yurong snapped.
Lu Yu Shu said, "Alright, alright, I don't care, but I don't think this kid is a good person!"
"Yes, yes, he's a bad guy, worse than you." Lu Yurong snapped, "If you can't stand it, go back to your own courtyard. Don't be an eyesore!"
"Little sister, I'm just anxious, he'll definitely come to your side first." Lu Yushu smiled sheepishly.
"Second Young Master Lu is badmouthing me again." Chu Li's voice suddenly rang out as he appeared in the gazebo.
He placed Ji Ruyu on the stone table.
Lu Yushu hurriedly ran over and looked at Ji Ruyu with a pitiful expression. He slowly caressed Ji Ruyu's face and turned his head to ask, "Little sister, there won't be any accidents, right?"
He had been on tenterhooks, fearing that something might go wrong.
Lu Yurong said, "Don't worry. She'll wake up tomorrow night. Bring her back first."
"Alright." Lu Yushu carefully carried Ji Ruyu and left quietly.
Chu Li shook his head and burst into laughter. "What an infatuated man."
"Yes, Second Brother has changed." Lu Yurong smiled and sighed. "Let's not talk about him. Let's talk about how to get rid of King An."
She owed Chu Li a huge favor. After much thought, she decided to help him come up with a plan to kill King An.
"With the Emperor around, he won't be able to do anything unless I don't want to live anymore and perish together with him!" Chu Li shook his head and sighed. "Even the Holy Church of Light won't dare to kill King An. Neither will the Divine Church of Asura."
He had thought of killing with a borrowed knife. For example, the Holy Church of Light or the Divine Church of Asura, but it was difficult to do so.
Faced with the Emperor's thunderous revenge, the Holy Church of Light would never appear in the Great Ji Dynasty again. The Divine Church of Asura would also be uprooted.
Lu Yurong said, "If you become an Enlightened Master, killing King An will be a piece of cake."
Chu Li burst into laughter.
Lu Yurong smiled. "If you want to deal with the Emperor, I think it's better to do it openly or there will be endless trouble. You're talented, it's not impossible for you to become an Enlightened Master!"
Chu Li pondered.
Lu Yurong said, "If you want to kill with a borrowed knife and use the disciples of the Holy Church of Light to kill King An, you'll be facing two Enlightened Masters. The situation will be even more dangerous. It's better for you to cover your face and kill King An, then run away!"
Chu Li smiled bitterly. "I want to run away after killing King An?"
"As long as you escape to the Li Dynasty, the Emperor won't be able to do anything. With your divine power, it'll be a piece of cake."
Chu Li said, "It's not hard to escape, but the Lady and the others will suffer."
"The High Duke's Public House will be fine. The Emperor won't kill anyone from the High Duke's Public House unless they commit treason."
"If the Emperor wants to kill, it'll be easy for the High Duke's Public House to commit treason." Chu Li shook his head.
Lu Yurong said, "Why don't you fall out with the High Duke's Public House first, betray them, then kill King An."
Chu Li shook his head. "I can't hide it from the Emperor."
"Then I'll still be an Enlightened Master." Lu Yurong smiled. "Learn all the martial arts in the world and become an Enlightened Master. Or find an Enlightened Master martial arts and cultivate it to perfection. When that time comes, you won't have to be afraid of anyone.
Chu Li smiled. "Looks like you want to become an Enlightened Master too, that's why you're encouraging me to seek death."
"If you become an Enlightened Master, I can too." Lu Yurong said.
Although her Empyrean Fairy Power was powerful, she was not Chu Li's opponent. With him around, she would not be able to become the world's number one, let alone become an Enlightened Master.
"There's no such thing." Chu Li smiled. "I'm also preparing to become an Enlightened Master."
Lu Yurong stared at him. "Then let's see how capable we are!"

King An came out of the Nine Dragon's Tripod Cauldron and walked to the courtyard with his hands behind his back.
His Golden Lohan's Power had improved by leaps and bounds. Although the Golden Lohan's Power was exquisite, it was also the embodiment of the Nine Dragon's Tripod Cauldron.
Training hard in the Nine Dragon's Tripod Cauldron for a day was equivalent to a few days for others. He estimated that he would need another month to advance another level.
If he could advance another level, he was confident that he could defeat Chu Li!
There was no need to hire other masters. He could beat Chu Li to the ground by himself and torture him to his heart's content. Even if he wanted to die, he would not be able to die easily.
He would never have thought that he could cultivate so quickly. The Nine Dragon's Tripod Cauldron and the Golden Lohan's Power combined to unleash an unbelievable power. This surprise must be left for Chu Li, so that he could enjoy it. Haha!
He stretched his body and let out a long sigh. Thinking about the day when he could kill Chu Li with his own hands, he could not help but be excited.
His expression suddenly changed. He turned around and struck a palm.
"Boom!" A muffled sound like thunder was heard from afar.
A man in black flashed out from the shadows and clashed with his palms.
King An's body stiffened. He felt an extremely hot force rushing into his body. His body suddenly became numb and he lost control.
"Boom!" The faint sound of thunder was heard again. The man in black's right palm clashed with his left palm again.
King An gritted his teeth. His eyes were wide open. His anger was about to burst out from his eyes. He had used all his strength in this palm. His body was completely numb and he could barely move.
He could recognize that it was the guy who crippled his martial arts last time. He could recognize him even if he turned into ashes. He was from the Amethyst Mountain!
"Boom!" Another Heaven's Thunder Palm hit his Dantian.
King An's mouth was wide open. His throat kept making sounds as he stared at the man in black in disbelief.
The man in black's face was expressionless. He only stared at him seriously.
"Why … Why?" King An asked with difficulty.
