White-Robed Chief

Chu Li harrumphed. “Keep it up!”

“Yes.” The three answered.

Chu Li left the Radiance Clan and arrived at Nine Star Tower.

It was still early and there were not many people at Nine Star Tower. Chu Li did not see Yang Ying when he went to the third floor. He sat down at the table by the window disappointingly, ordered a few dishes and started eating them slowly.

“Zhao Dahe!” Someone screamed out of the blue.

Chu Li raised his head and smiled at the youngster who had just rushed in.

The youngster’s expression froze as he ran out without bidding goodbye.

Chu Li shook his head as he knew trouble was coming. He was able to tell that these people were from the Sublime Righteous Association.

Soon, a dozen youngsters charged in as they stared angrily at Chu Li.

The youngster’s leader smiled coldly. “Zhao Dahe, no one’s going to back you up and no girl will help you now!”

Chu Li picked up an exquisite dim sum and put it into his mouth and chewed slowly. “Do you guys need anything?”

“We’re here to f*ck you up!” The youngster’s leaders’ face stood out as it was filled with a lot of small pimples. His eyes were brimming with light and he seemed to be brave as well.

Chu Li sighed. “Why don’t you grow a brain and think about it. Why do you think that I’m brave enough to eat alone here?”

“Hmpf, because you’re used to acting recklessly and selfishly. You’re not able to put down your tough act even though your martial arts have been crippled!” The youngster smiled coldly. “Unfortunately, you’re different than last time. You’re no longer the best in Gale City!”

Chu Li responded, “If I’m no longer the best in Gale City, what’s the point of defeating me then? Everyone knows that my martial arts have been crippled. You’ll be laughed at by everyone if you defeat a crippled man. You’ll only embarrass yourself. Hence, what’s the point of challenging me then?”

“Hmpf, I’m not here to gain any reputation!” The youngster grinned coldly. “I’m here for revenge. My elder brother is a disciple of the Roaring Tiger Clan. He was crippled by you!”

Chu Li raised his eyebrow and smirked. “Didn’t I spare his life? I’m in the same situation as your elder brother now, a crippled man. Are you not going to forgive me?”

“That’s right!” The youngster smiled coldly. “Don’t you dare think that you’ll get away with it even if your martial arts has been crippled. There are a lot of people who are in the same shoes as I am. They will come after you one after another to seek revenge!”

Chu Li sighed. “When one’s martial arts is crippled, one must retire from the world of martial arts and all grudges shall dissolve. Don’t you know about this rule?”

“That’s for the others, you’re different!” The youngster butted in. “Don’t you dare delay any further. Clan Leader Lu isn’t in Gale City today. You’re done for!”

Chu Li shook his head.

“Take this!” The youngster stepped forward as he waved his sword. His eyes were filled with a murderous intention as if he wanted to kill Chu Li for good.

Chu Li gently waved his hand.

The youngster was sent high up in the air. He held onto his throat and widened his eyes in disbelief.

Thud! He fell hard onto the ground. He remained still after struggling and squirming for a while.

Everyone was astounded.

This included Yang Yin who had just entered the place.

Yang Ying was in a lake green tunic and she looked fresh and pleasant. She went near him with her eyes wide open as she looked at him.

Chu Li smiled as his thick lips opened up. “Miss Yang, have you not left Gale City yet?”

“You’re quite a busybody. What’s wrong with me not leaving Gale City!” Yang Ying was rude. “Have you recovered your strength?”

Chu Li laughed. “Yes, I’ve recovered.”

“How is that possible?” Yang Ying widened her eyes.

Chu Li explained, “You’re a disciple of the White Tiger Sect. You should know the existence of the miraculous pills that recovers martial arts.”

“I’ve almost forgotten that you’re a disciple of the Holy Church of Light. Your wealth knows no bounds!” Yang Ying pouted with her cherry lips as she harrumphed. “I’m amazed you acted that pitiful and unfortunate yesterday!”

Chu Li laughed. “Didn’t I say that recovering my strength is just at the whim of my will? I was planning to hold it out a bit longer just to see what kind of weirdos would appear. Ultimately, I gave up on that thought since I don’t feel like it anymore!”

“You’re mean!” Yang Ying scoffed.

Chu Li laughed as he glanced at the crowd around him.

They had lost their bravery as they hastily carried the dead youngster and disappeared from the third floor.

Yang Ying said, “All sorts of people will spring out in sight. Can you just think of your identity for a bit? You’re from the Holy Church of Light!”

“Completely obsessed by greed,” Chu Li responded.

He turned around and faced the window. Then, he took a deep breath and screamed at the top of his lungs. “I, Zhao Dahe of the Holy Church of Light and Radiance Clan is right here. Come fight me if you’ve got the b*lls!”

His cry echoed like a spreading wave as it kept reverberating in everyone’s ears.

Due to the elevation of the Nine Star Tower and his immensely powerful inner energy, his scream reverberated throughout Gale City and almost everyone heard him loud and clear.

People who had plans for him in mind sighed in their hearts when they heard it and stopped acting stupidly because of their greed. Zhao Dahe had completely recovered!

Yang Ying smiled. “That’s a good one!”

Chu Li replied, “Miss Yang, I owe you one.”

“Great.” Yang Ying continued, “Give me the White Tiger Armor!”

Chu Li smiled with eyes closed as he shook his head. “I’ve already gifted the White Tiger Armor to someone else. I can’t take it back.”

Yang Ying scoffed. “How generous of you to gift the White Tiger Armor to someone else!”

“I’ll repay you by lending you a hand if you’re ever in trouble,” Chu Li said.

Yang Ying pouted her cherry lips as she harrumphed. “You’ve no sincerity at all. How will I ever be in danger? I’m incredibly strong!”

Chu Li laughed. “What if you encountered me or that Saint?”

“That’s true. Alright, I’ll make sure you pay me back someday,” Yang Ying replied. “Unfortunately, I have to go.”

Chu Li was shocked.

Yang Ying continued, “I’m leaving for good this time. I’ll be making a move today.”

Chu Li remained silent.

Yang Ying held her small hands together as she let out a soft sigh. “I’ll be in isolation when I go back.”

“Are you really getting punished?”

“Yes, I’ll be isolated for two years.”

Chu Li smiled wryly. “Two years. Your master is cruel!”

Yang Ying leered as she scoffed. “It’s all because of you!”

“All you need to do is to escape again,” Chu Li said. “I know a place where you can hide.”

“I don’t dare to escape.” Yang Ying shook her head. “Master will really be angry if I escape again.”

“Alright.” Chu Li took out a palm-sized jade out from his embrace and gave it to her.

Yang Ying immediately waved her hands and refused the gift.

Chu Li explained, “This is a treasured item. It’s fine if you don’t want it!”

“What kind of treasured item is it?” Yang Ying put her hand away as she looked at the shiny jade.

Chu Li scoffed. “I’ll know that you’re in danger and I’ll head to you immediately if this jade is broken.”

“I couldn’t be more dead by the time you arrived!” Yang Ying harrumphed.

Yang Ying defended. “What if I’m nearby!”

Yang Ying pondered before she took it. “Fine.”

“You two make a great couple!” There was laughter and soon a handsome, middle-aged man walked up the staircase slowly. He tried to hold in his laughter. “Looks like the seduction from the White Tiger Sect is rather practical!”

He was in a white robe and the way he walked was unrestrained and firm just like a jade tree standing firm in the wind.

Yang Ying stared at him furiously.

Chu Li frowned as he looked at this handsome middle-aged man. His expression gradually turned serious.

He could feel that this man’s aura was raging like fire. His vital essence around his body was boiling. Forming a magma-like aura. He was from the Church of the Bloody Garment!

This middle-aged man’s cultivation level was heavens apart from the members of the Church of the Bloody Garment. This man in front of him was like a pool of magma.

“Who are you!” Yang Ying screamed.

The middle-aged man smiled gently. “I’m from the Church of the Bloody Garment, Xu Zhenzong!”

Chu Li used his Omniscient Mirror to look around and frowned. “Are you the only one?”

“I’m alone.” Xu Zhenzong smiled gently. “In addition to that, I’m the only one left in the Church of the Bloody Garment.”

“Hmpf, the remnant of the Church of Bloody Garment. Instead of finding a place to hide, you’ve come here to seek death!” Yang Ying did not hold her words.

Chu Li shook his head and said, “Miss Yang, I think you should leave.”
