Chu Li felt a little lost as he watched the two of them walk away.
It was true that Yang Ying did not have any romantic feelings for him. She was just a good friend who shared the same sentiments and did not discriminate between a man and a woman. This made him feel very comfortable, and it was very relaxing for him to get along with her. However, he did not expect her to leave so soon.
He returned to his courtyard and went straight to Spirit Cranes Peak.
Two Spirit Cranes rushed over and played with him for a while. Then, he began to cultivate the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms at Spirit Cranes Peak.
After performing the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms once, he used the blade energy to perform the Light-body Technique. His speed was extremely fast, much faster than usual. However, the blade energy had a major drawback.
It was like a wild and untamed lion. Its power was strong, but it was not easy to control. Its inner force was like a fine horse. Although it was not as fast and fierce, it could be controlled like an arm and a finger. It could display all kinds of exquisite martial arts, but it could not do the same with knife energy.
Therefore, his plan failed. He could not use the blade energy to completely replace his inner energy. Both had their advantages and disadvantages.
The biggest drawback was that it could not coexist with his inner energy. Moreover, he could only use the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms to accumulate energy. It was extremely slow outside Spirit Cranes Peak and he could not rely on it during critical moments.
The last time he killed Xu Zhengzong was a fluke. If Xu Zhengzong's reaction was faster, the one who would have died would have been him. At that time, he had withdrawn his internal strength and the saber energy was extremely weak. It was his weakest moment.
After accumulating energy, he could only perform the Single Slice of the Universe twice. It would be useless if he could not finish off his opponent with two slashes.
The so-called Single Slice of the Universe meant that if one slash failed, the universe would turn upside down and life would become death.
This slash was powerful but one had to be careful when using it.

The setting sun shone gently and beautifully on Feng Huang Mountain. The entire mountain seemed to be shrouded in a dreamy atmosphere. It was like a fairyland.
Two disciples of Feng Huang Mountain stood under the archway at the foot of Feng Huang Mountain. They were both Innate Masters and were full of energy. Their eyes were shining and their temples were bulging.
They wore green robes and stood straight under the archway. Their eyes were slightly narrowed as they stared at a young man in a white robe who was walking over slowly.
The young man in white robe was handsome. He had a long blade at his waist and his white robe fluttered. Every step he took was as steady as a mountain.
The two young men took a deep breath. They felt that this person was not ordinary.
Ever since Feng Xue appeared in Feng Huang Mountain, Feng Huang Mountain had regained its former glory. There was an endless stream of martial arts masters who came to visit Feng Huang Mountain. Their confidence grew, and their momentum grew.
No matter how powerful the martial arts masters they faced were, they could face them calmly without being servile or overbearing.
However, when faced with this white-robed young man who was walking slowly towards them, they could not help but feel inferior. They could not help but fall into a disadvantageous position, and their hearts were filled with anxiety.
The white-robed young man approached the two and cupped his fists. He said in a gentle voice, "I am Du Feng. I have taken the liberty to pay a visit and wish to have a battle with Miss Feng Xue."
"Du Feng?" The two of them were stunned, and their expressions changed. "White-robed Shendao Du Feng?"
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "That's me."
The two of them were completely shocked. One of the young men reacted and quickly said, "Sir Du, please wait for a moment. I'll inform him immediately!"
White-robed Shendao Du Feng abhorred evil and killed people like scything flax. With every swing of his blade, heads would roll. He had killed more than a thousand evildoers. He had a great reputation in the martial arts world. He was highly respected by the righteous young men who practiced martial arts to fight against the strong and help the weak. They all felt that martial artists should be like Du Feng.
Chu Li smiled and nodded. "Thank you."
One of the young men quickly leaped onto the treetops and flew along the treetops. In a short while, he had climbed halfway up the mountain.
The other young man said, "Sir Du, I'm Zhao Xi. I've long heard of your name. It's my honor to meet you today!"
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "Don't call me Sir Du. Just call me Brother Du. Brother Zhao, you're a disciple of a famous sect. Your future is limitless."
Zhao Xi did not expect Du Feng to be so amiable. He did not have the arrogance of a top-notch master. This made him admire him even more. He quickly said, "Then I'll take the liberty to call you Brother Du."
Chu Li nodded. "That's how it should be. My martial arts is only slightly better. There's nothing special about it."
"Brother Du, you're one of the top-notch masters in the world. You've killed so many villains. I admire you very much!" Zhao Xi shook his head. "Brother Du, are you here to challenge Senior Sister Feng?"
Chu Li nodded. "The last time Miss Feng went to Snow Lunar Pavilion to challenge me, I was in isolated cultivation. Snow Lunar Pavilion didn't disturb me in order not to disturb me. I'd rather be defeated by Miss Feng. I feel bad about it, so I came to challenge her."
"Sigh …" Zhao Xi shook his head and sighed. "Brother Du, I advise you not to challenge Senior Sister Feng."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Why?"
"Senior Sister Feng's martial arts is beyond the reach of ordinary people." Zhao Xi pointed at the gazebo next to him. "Let's sit down and talk. Have a cup of tea to moisten your mouth."
"Thank you." Chu Li nodded.
The two of them went to the gazebo. Zhao Xi poured him a cup of tea and presented it with both hands. He sighed. "Although Brother Du didn't accept the challenge this time and everyone will laugh at you, you didn't lose to Senior Sister Feng."
Chu Li asked, "Is Miss Feng's martial arts really that powerful?"
"Senior Sister Feng's Ninth Heaven Divine Technique is the best in the world. It's so fast that people can't see it clearly. Moreover, her inner energy is strange and cannot be blocked by ordinary inner energy. Brother Du, your knife technique is peerless, but no matter how fast your knife is, it can't be faster than Senior Sister Feng's Light-body Technique," Zhao Xi said.
Chu Li sighed. "Unfortunately, this battle was inevitable. I didn't do it for fame, I did it for Snow Lunar Pavilion."
"Senior Sister Feng did go a little overboard." Zhao Xi looked up and lowered his voice. "But to become the strongest, this is the only way. There's no other way."
Chu Li asked, "Aren't you worried that Feng Huang Mountain will become the target of public criticism?"
Zhao Xi shook his head. "If Senior Sister Feng can become the world's number one, Feng Huang Mountain will become the top faction. We can even become a super-ranked faction and stand shoulder to shoulder with the four major factions!"
Chu Li nodded slowly and remained silent.
A clear whistling sound soared into the sky and resounded through the sky.
Chu Li's spirit was lifted. He knew that the famous and unparalleled Feng Xue was about to appear.
Zhao Xi hurriedly said, "Senior Sister Feng is here! … Brother Du, you're really influential. Senior Sister Feng has never cared about others. Many masters have come to challenge Senior Sister Feng, but Senior Sister Feng has ignored them all! "
Chu Li laughed. "Then I'll have to thank Miss Feng for thinking so highly of me."
Zhao Xi chuckled and secretly sighed at his own nonsense. No matter how arrogant Senior Sister Feng was, she would not look down on him.
As the whistle ended, a white figure appeared in front of Chu Li in a flash.
A faint fragrance wafted over. A snow-white robe covered her graceful figure. A white veil covered her face, revealing only a pair of phoenix eyes. They were as clear as a cold spring under the sun. Her elegance was breathtaking.
Chu Li fist saluted and smiled. "I'm Du Feng. Greetings, Miss Feng."
"Feng Xue. Du Feng, you're finally here!" The woman in white said lightly.
