Chu Li pulled Gu Litong and disappeared from the house.
Gu Litong could not open his eyes because of the wind. He could only see the distorted light and shadow through the gap of his eyelids. He could not see anything except the whistling wind. Under the strong wind, he suddenly stopped and rushed forward. Soon, waves of nausea began to form in his chest. It gradually condensed and became stronger.
After a while, Chu Li suddenly stopped. Gu Litong could no longer stop vomiting. He bent over and vomited a mouthful of food.
Chu Li looked at the small courtyard in the distance and shook his head.
The Protectors of the Ren Public House still did not come out at this time. They were really patient. They wanted to take advantage of the two groups of people fighting to suddenly attack and destroy them.
Gu Litong wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and straightened up. His face was bitter.
He found himself standing on the roof. The bright moon was like a jade wheel. The night breeze was gentle and cool. It was a beautiful night.
Chu Li stood with his hands behind his back. His green robe fluttered as he looked into the distance thoughtfully.
Gu Litong secretly shook his head.
Chu Li was known as the youth champion. At first, he thought it was ridiculous that a Scribe was called the champion. Now, it seemed that the rumors were true. His Light-body Technique was too powerful!
Chu Li activated the Omniscient Mirror and focused on the movement over there to see if there was a backup plan. He did not want the Ren Public House to take advantage of them.
After a careful investigation, he was relieved.
The Ren Public House was divided into three groups. Gu Litong's original four Protectors, twenty who were fighting, and twenty who were hiding in the dark more than two hundred meters away from the small courtyard.
Chu Li was so careful because he was worried that Lu Yurong would divide them into four groups. He was also afraid that there would be Grandmasters.
Fortunately, everything was under control.
Forty people squeezed in the small courtyard and fought. They were evenly matched and in a stalemate. As time passed, the strength of both sides was wearing down. They were struggling to hold on, waiting for their own people to appear.
The leader of the twenty Protectors of the Ren Public House was a middle-aged rough man. He was like a lion with a lion's nose and big eyes.
He squatted in the shadow in the corner, motionless, and listened.
He anxiously calculated the time. Not only would he not let his side suffer too many casualties, but he would also not let the other side have too much strength. He had to find the best time to intervene and eliminate them in one fell swoop. That would be a great achievement!
If they rushed over now, their side would suffer fewer casualties, but the people from the Yi Public House would have the strength to escape. If they could not kill a few of them, it would be a failure.
This time, his goal was to kill them. He had painstakingly set up this trap and obtained this opportunity. If he scared them away, it would be his own fault.
If the attack was too late, the manor would suffer too great a loss. The anger of the guards could burn her to death, and the Young Lady might not be able to protect her!
"Big Brother Hu, should we rush over now?" someone asked in a low voice.
The middle-aged man shook his head.
"Young miss's plans are flawless. This time, we'll give them a ruthless blow!" Someone laughed.
The middle-aged man turned his head and glared at him. "Lower your voice!"
"Big Brother Hu, you're being too careful. Can these idiots from the Yi Public House see through Young Lady's plan?"
"Don't underestimate the Yi Public House!"
"I bet they didn't expect this to be a trap!"
"Don't be complacent too early!" The middle-aged man said impatiently. "Lower your voice and listen over there. If we're late, we won't have a good ending!"
Everyone fell silent. Each of them rubbed their palms together, ready to go all out. A great merit was placed in front of them, waiting for them to reach out and take it!
Chu Li saw through the middle-aged man's thoughts from afar.
He was also waiting for the best opportunity. He wanted to take down the guards before the middle-aged man and not give them a chance.
Time passed slowly. A quarter of an hour seemed like an hour.
Chu Li suddenly threw something into the air.
"Bang!" A clap of thunder resounded through the night sky. A golden sword with flowing light appeared in the night sky, shining with the bright moon.
Twenty Yi Public House Protectors rushed out of the darkness and shot into the courtyard.
Their martial arts were stronger, and they were full of vigor. They rushed in like they were crushing dry weeds.
In the blink of an eye, the Ren Public House Protectors fell to the ground. When the middle-aged man reacted and rushed over with his men, more than twenty Ren Public House Protectors were completely annihilated.
The middle-aged man rushed in and saw the situation. He immediately shouted, "Retreat!"
Chu Li let out a long roar.
The Yi Public House Protectors who were originally chasing stopped.
Chu Li turned his head and smiled. "Brother Gu, it's a success. Let's go!"
Gu Litong was baffled. He could not hear the fighting sounds in the courtyard from so far away.
Chu Li pulled him into the courtyard.
"Junior Chu!" The Protectors of the Yi Public House greeted him one after another in high spirits.
Chu Li was known as the youth master of the Public House. Moreover, he had grasped the perfect timing. It was admirable.
Chu Li gave a fist salute and smiled. "Brothers, you've worked hard."
"You're welcome." Everyone returned the salute.
"Brother Chu, why did we stop chasing?"
"It's important to be content. If we continue to chase, there might be other traps."
"We can't be careless. The Ren Public House is too cunning!"
They had suffered many losses and could not guard against them. Chu Li was right to be cautious.
This time, they killed more than twenty Innate Masters. It was a rare victory.
"We've finally vented our anger!" Everyone was happy. Those who were injured were also smiling.
Chu Li said, "Everyone, retreat as soon as possible."
"Listen to Brother Chu!" Everyone said.
Chu Li suddenly frowned and waved his hand. Everyone stopped talking and looked at him.
Chu Li frowned and said, "They're really coming. Go south, quickly!"
Everyone rushed out of the courtyard with the injured and followed Chu Li to the south.
A middle-aged man followed Chu Li. He was the most prestigious Protector among the Protectors, Cheng Wenhui.
"Brother Chu, what happened?" Cheng Wenhui asked in a low voice.
Gu Litong was accompanied by two Protectors. Chu Li did not have to do anything.
Chu Li said, "They have another group of ambushes."
"Fortunately, fortunately!" Cheng Wenhui broke out in a cold sweat. "This Ren Public House!"
Every time they fought with the Ren Public House, they were completely defeated and suffered many losses. They hated and felt despair, but also a trace of fear.
Chu Li said, "Four ambushes. They're really powerful!"
From the Omniscient Mirror, he saw that there were twenty masters in the fourth group. They were scattered around the town. Some were hidden in a residence, some were hidden in an inn, and some were on the street.
After receiving the signal, they quickly assembled. It took some time for Chu Li to calmly avoid them.
Chu Li was greatly impressed by this method of dispersing the troops. It was really impossible to guard against it. It was obvious that the Ren Public House managed this town well and usually hid their identity.
Chu Li led them to the south, east, north, and west. They went around and around until Cheng Wenhui and the others were dizzy. In the end, they escaped from the small town and went into the vast forest.
Chu Li led the way in front. The group passed through the forest. From time to time, they jumped on the treetops and dashed under the moonlight.
They were all Innate Masters with endless inner energy and extraordinary endurance. They ran for half the night and only stopped when the first light of dawn appeared.
Chu Li's green robe fluttered as he turned his head and smiled. "Alright, we finally got rid of them. Everyone, take a rest!"
They all breathed a sigh of relief and lay down lazily under the tree. Even Innate Masters could not stand running like this.
Gu Litong felt like his body was falling apart.
He was carried by two Innate Masters. Although he did not use any strength, the wind was like riding a horse. It was uncomfortable.
Chu Li came to Gu Litong's side. "Brother Gu, you're almost there."
"Back to where?" Gu Litong scoffed.
"Jing Hai Town … It's not far from here. We can get there tomorrow."
Gu Litong shut his mouth and closed his eyes.
Cheng Wenhui smiled. "Brother Chu Li, you send Brother Gu there. I'll bring them away!"
Chu Li pondered.
Cheng Wenhui smiled. "After we pass Howling Wind Town, there will be people there to support us. I'll be careful!"
This time, they had hurt the Ren Public House. They would definitely surround them and mobilize all their forces to destroy them.
The Ren Public House had become stronger and stronger over the years. They had infiltrated the Chong Ming Road. They did not know when a master from the Ren Public House would appear. It was impossible to guard against them. They had to be extremely careful.
Chu Li glanced at Gu Litong and sighed. "Everyone, let's go back together."
"Brother Chu Li, there's no need," Cheng Wenhui said.
Chu Li shook his head.
Cheng Wenhui no longer refused. He was also guilty. Lu Yurong's wisdom was far better than Master Xiao Tieying's. It was really scary. It was said that Lady Xiao Tieying's wisdom was also extraordinary. It was a pity that she was only in charge of the criminal law of the Public House.
"I can go by myself. There's no need to escort me!" Gu Litong opened his eyes.
Chu Li smiled.
Gu Litong scoffed. "All their thoughts are on you. They won't care about me."
"That's not necessarily true." Chu Li shook his head.
After resting for a while, Chu Li brought them to continue their journey.
The original distance was more than a thousand miles. After a few turns, they ran more than two thousand miles. It took them five days to return to the Public House.
