Chu Li frowned as he looked at her.
Shen Yinghu said, "You're too late. She has already cut off her feelings. This time is different from last time. She's no longer in a relationship!"
Chu Li said, "I want to enter the Surpassing State. Can I?"
"As you wish," Shen Yinghu said. "Snow Lunar Pavilion is indebted to you. I'll talk to the pavilion leader. As long as you don't destroy it, you can do whatever you want. If you can bring Xiao Qi back, it'll be your ability!"
Chu Li fist saluted and thanked her again. Then, he disappeared from the pagoda.
Shen Yinghu stared at the lake again. The corners of her lips curled up. Her mood suddenly improved.
Chu Li appeared by the lake in the ravine.
This lake was almost the same shape as the Snow Lunar Lake outside, just smaller.
The lake water was clearer. One could see the bottom of the lake at a glance. Fishes swam leisurely in the water. Water plants swayed with the ripples of the lake water.
Xiao Qi sat cross-legged on a white jade stone by the lake. She wore a white gown and her skin was like jade. A white sword was placed on her lap.
She seemed to be one with the lake water. Her aura was in harmony. She breathed along with the ripples of the lake water. There was an inexplicable rhythm.
Xiao Qi's heart was like still water. There was only a sword hanging in her mind. Time seemed to have stopped. Nothing existed in her mind. If she had any other thoughts, the sword would fly up and cut them.
As the sword cut off all distracting thoughts, thousands of them were cut off one by one. Finally, she had no thoughts and reached a state of selflessness.
She suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the opposite side.
Chu Li stood quietly by the lake in a white robe. He looked at her calmly.
His face appeared in Xiao Qi's mind. When the sword slashed, it was immediately cut off. Then, she looked at him with a blank gaze.
Their eyes met in the air.
Chu Li slowly approached her, one step at a time.
His figure and face appeared in Xiao Qi's mind from time to time. Her long sword slashed it into pieces, constantly eliminating his traces and imprints.
When he got closer, Chu Li sat on the jade stone. He was very close to her.
Xiao Qi looked at him motionlessly. Her eyes were like water. They were calm and unwavering.
Chu Li ignored her strange reaction and slowly reached out to hold her right hand. It was like a piece of white jade, cool and delicate.
The sword light in Xiao Qi's mind flashed like lightning as she continuously cut off Chu Li's image. However, the scenes of the past kept surging in her mind like a tidal wave. No matter how hard she tried, she could not get rid of all of them. From time to time, there would be a fish that slipped through the net and went into the depths of her mind, so she could not get rid of it anymore.
Chu Li smiled and looked at her quietly.
Her bright and clear eyes flickered, and the changes were intense.
Chu Li suddenly leaned forward and gently kissed her red lips. The feeling of coolness and tenderness went straight to his heart.
"Boom …" The sky full of images swallowed her and the sword light.
Chu Li looked at her bright eyes and felt a sense of familiarity. He suddenly laughed and reached out to hold her waist, wanting to kiss her again.
Xiao Qi suddenly struggled and gently pushed him away.
Chu Li smiled at her.
Siao Qi shook her head. Her cheeks were blushing as if she was intoxicated. The setting sun had turned the valley into a rosy color. Her fair face was tinged with a rosy glow, making her look incomparably beautiful.
Chu Li did not care about her struggle. He reached out to hold her waist and kissed her gently again.
Xiao Qi's body stiffened and slowly softened.
Chu Li hugged her soft and cool body. It was as if he had the whole world in his hands. He was satisfied and happy. The feeling of joy lingered in his heart. He wished that time would stop here forever.
After a long time, their lips parted. Xiao Qi looked even more beautiful, making Chu Li feel a strong urge to kiss her again.
Siao Qi quickly shook her head. "There's someone!"
"Don't worry about them," Chu Li said.
He already knew that Suru and the other three were hiding in the forest two hundred meters away. They were sneakily watching them. Xiao Qi could sense it, so her martial arts had obviously improved.
"Why did you suddenly come here?" Siao Qi gently pushed him.
Chu Li smiled and stepped back. He stood up and Siao Qi followed suit.
The two stood side by side by the lake and looked at the clear lake. Their hearts were calm and happy. They chatted aimlessly and enjoyed the wonderful feeling of leisure.
"I suddenly realized that the Regal Sword Scripture that you're cultivating is a grandmaster's martial arts. Once you've mastered it, you'll ascend to the grandmaster's boundary." Chu Li shook his head. "That's why I regret it. I can't just watch you ascend to the heavens."
Siao Qi revealed a smile.
Chu Li said, "The High Duke's Public House is now strong and prosperous. We don't need to care about others. It's others who care about us. You just need to be a lady. You don't need to work so hard. Moreover, if you really become an Enlightened Master, will the High Duke's Public House be better?"
Siao Qi nodded.
She gradually understood the path of Enlightened Master. It was a long and lonely path. There was no end to it. Her aunt, Shen Yinghu was an example. She had advised herself many times not to be muddle-headed and take such a dead end.
Unfortunately, the two of them had separated. She was disheartened and had no more constraints. She could only continue on.
She never expected that Chu Li would suddenly come over and unreasonably molest her, breaking her state of oblivion.
"You should stay here," Chu Li said gently. "Cultivate slowly here and see how far you can cultivate the Regal Sword Scripture. Don't go back to the High Duke's Public House for now."
Siao Qi looked at him with her clear eyes. "Is the High Duke's Public House in danger?"
Chu Li shook his head. "I'm dealing with King An."
"King An …" Siao Qi frowned and pondered.
Chu Li said, "I don't dare to kill him. I can only torture him bit by bit."
Siao Qi smiled. "You won't lose. What about Second Eldest Sister?"
"Second Lady is in the High Duke's Public House. She returns to the Public House every other day. King An can't control her. She's living quite freely," Chu Li said.
Siao Qi sighed softly.
Chu Li knew what she was thinking. "Things have come to this. Second Lady chose her own path. It's not that difficult. You still have me!"
"Then take good care of Second Eldest Sister," Siao Qi said. "Second Eldest Sister has suffered too much."
Chu Li nodded.
The two of them stood quietly by the lake and no longer spoke.
Even if they did not speak, the two of them could still feel the flow of energy between them. They felt each other's existence. Their hearts were full and happy. They only hated that time passed so quickly.
"Come here!" Chu Li suddenly waved his hand.
Suru and the other three came over. Li Hanyan, Xue Ling, and Jiang Kuai.
Chu Li looked at them and nodded with satisfaction. The four of them had become Grandmasters. It was indeed rare. It was not easy to become a Grandmaster.
He turned his head and smiled at Siao Qi. "Our High Duke's Public House is getting more and more talented."
Siao Qi smiled softly.
"Lady Siao, you guys …?" Suru pursed her lips and smiled.
Siao Qi gave her a sidelong glance.
Suru gave Chu Li a sidelong glance. "Chu Li, you're amazing!"
Chu Li laughed. "I'm sorry. Chief Su has stepped into the Grandmaster's Boundary. Congratulations."
"Stepping into the Grandmaster's Boundary is just the beginning. I'm still far from it." Suru shook her head and smiled. "I still have a lot to learn."
Chu Li nodded. "Chief Su still wants to stay here?"
"Yes," Suru said. "Xue Ling and Protector Jiang Kuai don't have to. Their martial arts skills are outstanding. They're better than me."
Xue Ling smiled embarrassedly.
Li Hanyan quickly said, "Senior Sister, what about me?"
"You —?" Suru smiled. "Of course you have to continue learning!"
Jiang Kuai said. "Chief, I can go back now."
