He was the rising star of the White Tiger Sect and he was faintly regarded as the top youth expert.
This time, when they heard the news of Roaring Tiger Clan asking for help, saying that the Holy Church of Light was going to rebuild the Radiance Clan, the sect felt that this was no small matter. They had to kill this momentum and destroy the Holy Church of Light's hope.
They quickly investigated and found out that Zhao Dahe was a young man. Moreover, he was not well-known in the Holy Church of Light and was a nobody. They reckoned that the Holy Church of Light was testing the waters.
However, to be on the safe side, they still sent Tan Hu, the number one youth expert, to kill Zhao Dahe.
Tan Hu was full of confidence before he came, but after he fought with Chu Li, his confidence was gone.
This fellow was young, but he was already a top-notch master who was on par with him. The Holy Church of Light's martial arts were slightly superior to the White Tiger Sect's. If the two of them were to fight, it would be difficult to say who would win and who would lose. It was most likely that both sides would suffer.
Chu Li scoffed. "The White Tiger Sect is quite capable after all. That's all for today. I'll visit again another day!"
"Zhao Dahe, I'll give you a piece of advice since you're pretty good at martial arts. Gale City isn't a place where you should stay!" Tan Hu said in a deep voice.
Chu Li scoffed. "I'm the Clan Leader of Radiance Clan. I'm going to stay in Gale City!"
Tan Hu stood with his hands behind his back. His purple robe fluttered in the wind. "This is the White Tiger Sect's territory."
"So what!" Chu Li scoffed and turned to leave.
Tan Hu furrowed his brows as he stared at Chu Li's retreating figure.
Could it be that the Holy Church of Light was determined to take over Gale City?
The Holy Church of Light had always had many geniuses, so they were not stingy with them. They adopted the policy of letting these geniuses live and let them live. However, there were not many masters like Zhao Dahe in the Holy Church of Light.
It seemed like the Holy Church of Light valued Gale City a lot.
In that case, they had to eliminate the Holy Church of Light's greed and prevent Zhao Dahe from gaining a foothold.

The next night, the night was as dark as ink, with no stars or moon to be seen.
Chu Li was cultivating in the gazebo when two silhouettes silently floated into the residence.
One of them was Tan Hu, and the other was a tall and thin old man. His face was as red as a date, and his eyes were as sharp as lightning.
With a torch in his hand, Tan Hu went to the woodshed first and lit it up.
Chu Li frowned and appeared in front of Kou Qiong and the others in a flash. He coughed softly.
They were meditating on the carpet in the front hall when they were awakened by Chu Li.
Chu Li glanced at the three of them and said in a low voice, "All of you, leave the residence first!"
"Hall Master?" Kou Qiong hurriedly said.
Chu Li scoffed. "A top-notch master has arrived. You'll only be courting death if you go. Hurry up and leave!"
"… Yes." The three quickly nodded.
What they feared the most now was death. They had just seen the light of day again and recovered their martial arts. They were just about to enjoy their lives. It would be such a waste to die like this!
Tan Hu stared at the burning woodshed. Chu Li appeared behind him in a flash and threw a punch at him.
"Bang!" Tan Hu turned around and threw a punch. Before the ferocious tiger could roar, the two fists collided.
Chu Li and Tan Hu each took a step back.
Under the illumination of the blazing fire, Tan Hu wore a sarcastic smile on his face. "I'll burn down all the houses here. Why would the Radiance Clan still be here when the houses are gone?"
"As long as I'm here, the Radiance Clan will be here!" Chu Li scoffed.
Tan Hu shook his head. "You'll definitely die today."
The red-faced elder appeared behind Chu Li like a ghost and struck him with his palm soundlessly.
Chu Li had the Omniscient Mirror, so he had already seen through his silhouette. A cold light flashed on his waist.
"Ding …" The tip of Chu Li's sword pierced the center of his palm as if it had hit a rock.
An extremely overbearing inner energy came from the blade, but it was burned by the Divine Light Technique and turned into his own inner energy. Chu Li struck with his sword again.
"Ding, ding, ding, ding …" Chu Li's sword flashed like lightning, but the tip of the sword was always hit by the red-faced elder's palm.
Chu Li's face darkened as he swung his sword continuously.
He did not expect the elder's palm technique to be so amazing that it was not inferior to the Divine Light Sword. In fact, it was even better. The overbearing inner energy kept surging into him. In the beginning, it was burned and transformed by the Divine Light Technique. Later on, the technique could not keep up with the transformation.
Chu Li suddenly disappeared and reappeared behind Tan Hu.
"Ding …" Tan Hu blocked the tip of Chu Li's sword with his palm as well. The overbearing inner energy coming from the blade was weakened by two notches.
"Master's Junior Meng!" Tan Hu called out.
The elder threw a punch at Tan Hu. As the ferocious tiger roared, Tan Hu threw a punch as well.
When the two fist forces met in the air, they suddenly turned into an illusory ferocious tiger that shot toward Chu Li like a shadow or fog.
Chu Li was surprised. He had never seen such a wonderful technique.
The tip of his sword stabbed forward, but it was empty. It did not seem to be a fist force at all.
However, a strange inner energy came from the blade. It was as cold as ice water and seemed to be solid. It was abnormally pure and he could not neutralize it. Since he did not want to use his Heavenly Demonic Orb, he took a step back to buy some time to catch his breath.
The illusory ferocious tiger suddenly flashed and hit him like a ray of light.
"Bang!" He felt as if a giant hammer had hit his chest and he was sent flying.
He read from their minds that this was the White Tiger Killing Skill, but he did not expect it to be so powerful.
The overbearing inner energy was wreaking havoc in his body. It suppressed the Divine Light Technique and continuously destroyed his internal organs.
The advantage of the Divine Light Body was that even though it was being ravaged, it was still tough and indestructible. His body began to emit a gentle glow. The glow flickered as it fought against the inner energy and continuously neutralized the damage.
"Hmph, you do have some skills." Master's Junior Meng scoffed and threw a punch at Tan Hu again.
Tan Hu threw a punch as well.
When the two fist forces met again, they condensed into a faint shadow and crashed into Chu Li.
The speed of this phantom was incomparably fast. He activated Time Steps and disappeared from his original spot in a flash, reappearing twenty feet away. The phantom of the white tiger followed him like a shadow. As soon as he reappeared, it crashed into him. With a muffled bang, he was sent flying again.
"Again!" Master's Junior Meng said.
Chu Li disappeared in the air and appeared thirty feet away in a flash. Then, he flashed again and appeared a hundred feet away. After another flash, he disappeared from their sight.
"After him!" Master's Junior Meng scoffed. "We must kill him today!"
Tan Hu smiled. "Master's Junior Meng, there's no need to rush. Burn this place down and he'll have to come back himself!"
"Hmm, that works too." Master's Junior Meng nodded.
Tan Hu picked up a torch and continued to burn the houses.
One by one, the houses caught fire. In the blink of an eye, five houses had been set ablaze and turned into raging flames. The blazing fire illuminated their faces. Chu Li had not appeared yet.
Suddenly, the flames came from afar and a shout was heard. "Zhao Dahe of the Holy Church of Light's Radiance Clan is here!"
Master's Junior Meng's expression changed slightly. "It's the Roaring Tiger Clan."
Tan Hu gritted his teeth. "What a vicious fellow!"
Zhao Dahe was obviously trying to hurt both sides. They had set this place on fire, so Zhao Dahe wanted to burn the Roaring Tiger Clan. Although this place was big, it was still slightly smaller than the Roaring Tiger Clan.
"Continue burning!" Master's Junior Meng scoffed. "If I don't kill him today, how can I return to the sect?"
As a dignified sect elder, he would be too ashamed to face anyone if he could not even kill a junior disciple of the Holy Church of Light.
"Alright!" Tan Hu gritted his teeth.
He lit the houses one by one.
Chu Li's shout was heard from afar. "Listen up, White Tiger Sect. If you don't come over, I'll kill everyone in the Roaring Tiger Clan!"
Master's Junior Meng's eyes flickered, but he shook his head helplessly. "Go over!"
If they still did not go over after Zhao Dahe's shout, not only would the Roaring Tiger Clan be disappointed, but the entire Gale City would also be disappointed. The White Tiger Sect's prestige would be greatly damaged.
"Zhao Dahe, don't run if you dare!" Tan Hu shouted. The two of them rushed over like a gust of wind and arrived in front of Chu Li in the blink of an eye.
