Just as Lu Tianji was about to speak, a cold light flashed, the dense cold air had already entered his throat, as if it was frozen, and he was unable to make a sound.
His reaction was extremely fast. He subconsciously retreated and raised his head.
"Swoosh!" Chu Li pulled out his sword and retreated, the tip of the sword pulled out from Lu Tianji's Dantian.
Chu Li took a step back and lightly shook the blade of the sword. The blade of the sword regained its snow-white luster. Then, he sheathed the sword and calmly looked at Lu Tianji.
Lu Tianji clutched his lower abdomen and widened his eyes.
"You!" Hu Huarong slammed the stone table.
"Bang!" The stone table cracked and collapsed into a pile on the ground.
Hu Huarong glared at Chu Li. He was so angry that his body was trembling.
Chu Li smiled and said, "That's right. If your martial arts is crippled, then it's useless. It's best to cultivate from the beginning. Only by honing yourself properly can you become someone great!"
"Zhuge Tian!" Hu Huarong's lips were trembling and his entire body was shaking. "You … How dare you!"
Chu Li replied, "He's still a far cry from your master and disciple. He plotted against me and even attacked my mother. I'm already being merciful by not killing him. Considering that we're from the same sect, he would've been dead if he was an outer sect disciple!"
"You … you actually dare to make a move in front of this old man!" Hu Huarong angrily shouted, "Do you not put this old man in your eyes?!"
Chu Li said, "Does Elder Hu have any respect for my late mother? Insulting the ancestors, this is the kind of disciple you taught, Elder Hu. In order to achieve his goal, he will do anything! "
Hu Huarong scoffed, "This old man is an elder. Can't I say a few words to her?"
"You took advantage of your seniority and disobeyed the Hill Master's orders. The root of Crouching Bull Mountain's decline lies with you!" Chu Li scoffed coldly. "Because your cultivation level is high and you've lived for a long time, you think that you can order around and make the Hill Master listen to you. You want to be the Grand Hill Master … You make it sound better than a song. You say that everything is for the sake of Crouching Bull Mountain, but in reality, you just want to satisfy your own power. What right does an old man like you have to talk about my late mother?"
"Good … Good. Today, I will clean up the mess on behalf of Mountain Chieftain!" Hu Huarong's killing intent was aroused. Crippling his own disciple in front of him, if he didn't make a move, how could he face the world!
Chu Li scoffed coldly. "I'm the next hill master. You dare to kill me?"
"From today onwards, you are not!" Hu Huarong shouted and punched. It was the Crouching Bull Punch.
Chu Li scoffed. "If that's the case, you can accompany your disciple!"
He dodged the Crouching Bull Punch and instantly appeared behind Hu Huarong, thrusting his sword forward.
Hu Huarong ducked and dodged. His body swelled up and his aura surged.
Vaguely, he seemed to have transformed into a green ox. He lowered his head and raised his horns, roaring at the sky to resist the will of the heavens. An indescribable aura pervaded the air and became stronger and stronger.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. Did this old man successfully cultivate the Crouching Bull Power?
Chu Li snorted and retracted his sword light. His sword light turned into a cold star and pierced towards Hu Huarong's throat.
Hu Huarong's inner force surged, and his movements were faster than usual. His aged movements were even more agile and nimble than a monkey's. Boundless power filled his body, and he slapped the tip of the sword with his palm.
The tip of the sword abruptly sank and suddenly sped up, instantly piercing into Hu Huarong's Dantian.
"Moo …" It was as if a dull bull's roar was heard.
Hu Huarong's clothes fluttered in the wind. He felt as if his sword could not pierce through. It was as if an invisible force was blocking the tip of the sword. It was unusually flexible.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows and condensed his inner force.
"Zheng …" The sword let out a clear sound and sank.
"How dare you!" Hu Huarong roared fiercely with his eyes wide open.
Chu Li pulled out his sword and retreated. He gently shook the long sword. The shiny blade was not stained with blood and he returned it to its scabbard.
"Master!" Lu Tianji cried out involuntarily.
Hu Huarong roared at the sky. The huge aura around his body quickly weakened. His clothes stuck to his body and the wrinkles on his face increased rapidly. It was as if he had aged twenty years in an instant.
"Master!" Lu Tianji hurried forward to support him and quickly pressed on his Dantian. However, because his inner force had disappeared, his finger force was ineffective.
He hurriedly took out some medicine but realized that Hu Huarong's wound was not bleeding. It was as if he was not injured at all.
Hu Huarong had white hair and a youthful complexion a moment ago, but now he looked old. The exuberant energy from before had disappeared. He looked like an old man with one foot in the grave.
Chu Li said lightly, "Looks like Elder Hu has successfully cultivated the Crouching Bull Power?"
Hu Huarong's eyes dimmed and he looked at him numbly. "Crouching Bull Power? Hehe! "
Chu Li read from his mind that this was indeed the Crouching Bull Power. However, he did not manage to cultivate it as he was not qualified enough. Moreover, although the Crouching Bull Power he obtained was more than half of the Crouching Bull Mountain, it was not complete.
The sound of clothes fluttering could be heard. Chu Li turned his head and saw Zhuge Feng and the other six rushing over.
They heard Hu Huarong's roar and rushed over.
They did not come earlier because they wanted to avoid arousing suspicion and avoid being scolded by Hu Huarong. They were sure that even if Chu Li fought, he would not be in danger and would be able to escape.
They did not expect to hear Hu Huarong's roar. It sounded like he was at a disadvantage.
Zhuge Feng and the other six approached and closed fist saluted. "Elder Hu!"
They saw that Hu Huarong's complexion was different. It did not look like he had a deep inner force. It was as if he had lost his cultivation. He looked old and weak.
"Elder Hu, what's wrong?" Zhuge Feng hurriedly asked.
"What's wrong? Haha! "Hu Huarong laughed at the sky." I must have been blind. I deserve this outcome! "
Zhuge Feng turned to look at Chu Li. "What happened?"
Chu Li lazily said, "Nothing much. Elder Hu wanted to accompany his disciple and crippled his martial arts to cultivate again. What a deep relationship between a master and his disciple. I am very impressed!"
"You —!" Lu Tianji stared at him coldly.
Chu Li said, "Then I can only fulfill Elder Hu's wish and let this story be told."
"You crippled Elder Hu's martial arts?!" Zhuge Feng shouted.
Chu Li lazily nodded.
"Evil creature!" Zhuge Feng angrily scolded, "How dare you be so presumptuous!"
Chu Li sighed. "It was my fault. Elder Hu, please don't take it to heart!"
"Elder Hu!" Zhuge Feng's heart was filled with joy, but his face showed a pained expression. "It was my fault for not teaching my son properly and caused such a disaster. Elder Hu, please don't be calculative with him. Please take care and don't get angry and hurt your body!"
"Haha …" Hu Huarong waved his hand and pushed away Lu Tianji's support. He shook his head and sighed. "I have worked hard for the sect all my life, but in the end, I ended up like this. I feel sorry for myself!"
He glanced at the crowd and sighed. "The Young Lord that was elected by everyone is so cruel. I am afraid that what I am now will be the outcome for all of you in the future!"
Chu Li chuckled. "Elder Hu seems to be so obedient. You used your age to act like a tyrant and stood on your own in the Surpassing State. They don't have that kind of ability. You should have thought of this outcome today!"
"Zhuge Tian, I will never agree to you becoming the next Hill Master!" Hu Huarong said in a low voice.
Chu Li said, "You should stay here and recuperate your body. Don't wander around."
"What are you doing!" Hu Huarong said coldly.
Chu Li said, "You don't have to return to the Surpassing State. You are old and should return to your roots."
