The Adversity Surpassing Pill worked amazingly fast, the moment it entered her mouth and fused with her saliva, it transformed into a warm current that flowed and rolled around in her body. 

In a blink of an eye, the warm current made a full cycle within her body and finally lingered in her precordium, protecting her heart meridian. 

Lu Yurong secretly released a breath. 

She could not suppress the Great Light Scripture's inner energy and her injuries were worsening. 

The Great Light Scripture's inner energy was like a ball of flames and one of incredibly high temperatures at that, while her inner energy was like an ice cube that was melting and getting smaller unceasingly in the face of those flames. 

The inner energy of Grandmasters grew incessantly, but with her vital organs wounded, even boundless inner energy could not sustain itself and keep up with the Great Light Scripture's searing fire. 

She already gave up on the thought of dispelling the Great Light Scripture's inner energy as she wanted to just suppress it temporarily. Only when the injuries on her organs had stabilized, would she start channeling to eliminate it. 

The nine maids kept their eyes on her worriedly and let out a sigh of relief as they noticed her dark brows relax. 

They sat in a circle around her, the nine of them holding each other's hand as they activated the Enchanting Girls Technique and in an instant, merged their forces into one. 

When this force had flowed through the circle a few times, two girls each stretched out a hand and held Lu Yurong's, pulling her into the circle. 

An extremely refined inner energy as vast as an ocean flowed through the bodies of the ten girls with Lu Yurong as the master and the nine girls servants, each playing a role that coincided with each other. The profound inner energy moved according to Lu Yurong's will as if their inner energy belonged to Lu Yurong alone, her command of it was smooth and unhindered. 

Their inner energy was refined but icy cool, it was extreme-Yin and extreme-cold, as if an immense amount of seawater was attacking the Great Light Scripture. 

The Great Light Scripture was refined and hot and kept melting their inner energy until its flames were finally devoured and extinguished. However, they did not relax their hold after that. Instead, they started circulating the Recuperation Heart Technique to heal Lu Yurong's body. 

After four hours, Lu Yurong released her hands and slowly opened her eyes that had rays of electric light flashing through them, they were ever so awe-inspiring. 

"Milady, are you alright now?" A pretty maid asked. 

Lu Yurong shook her head. 

The pretty maid questioned angrily, "Lady Lu, what's going on? How did you get injured so badly? Is it this horrible fella?" 

Lu Yurong scoffed. "Xiao Mei! What are you thinking?" 

"Anyway, every time he seeks you out, he's always up to no good!" Xiao Mei grumbled. 


Lu Yurong rolled her eyes and came before Chu Li. 

Chu Li was lying unmoving on a thick and soft mat as if he was dead. 

She checked Chu Li's pulse and found nothing while his force was so faint, it was barely detectable, these were near-death symptoms!

Her expression darkened instantly and her brows knotted in a tight frown. "Xiao Mei, the pill you gave him was Adversity Surpassing Pill, right?" 

Xiao Mei nodded. "Of course. I may dislike him but I will definitely do what you ask me to, milady."

 "…Give him another pill!" Lu Yurong said. 

Xiao Mei hesitated. "Milady, one pill should be enough, if one doesn't work, ten won't either!" 

Adversity Surpassing Pills were rare and priceless, one pill could save a life and Lady Lu did not have much, so how could it be used indiscriminately? Wasting one could just cost her her life someday! 

"Shut up!" Lu Yurong barked impatiently. 

Helpless, Xiao Mei took out the white jade bottle again and gave a golden pill to Lu Yurong. 

Lu Yurong looked closely and nodded when she confirmed that it was an Adversity Surpassing Pill. 

She stuffed it into Chu Li's mouth and pressed down lightly on Chu Li's buccal acupuncture point. However, she found her finger getting bounced off from shock, his body was filled with a violent inner energy that retaliated at the slightest touch. 

She guessed that Chu Li's internal condition was extremely horrible, so she pressed down on his chest and channeled in some inner energy but was immediately deflected by his forceful inner energy. 

"Urgh!" She spat out a mouthful of blood. 

"Lady Lu!" The maids exclaimed. 

Lu Yurong wiped the corners of her mouth and rolled her eyes. "Stop overreacting!" 

Xiao Mei asked, "Milady, are you really okay?" 

Lu Yurong shook her head and said, "Just a minor injury."

She looked at Chu Li worriedly, there was no wonder the Adversity Surpassing Pills were not working, the force within his body was too aggressive that the pill's energy could not enter and was possibly driven away instead of aiding his recovery. 

The nine girls stared at Chu Li. 

"He was impaled in his precordium!" Xiao Mei said lowly. 

Lu Yurong nodded lightly. "It was to save me… He even endured multiple stabs and punches… And I was already so heavily injured having only taken one punch!"

Xiao Mei murmured. "Milady, who did you go up against? Who is it that's so powerful?" 

"If I wasn't there, he wouldn't have suffered from such a disadvantage!" Lu Yurong sighed, her gaze never left Chu Li's face. 

This immediately changed the nine girls' impression of Chu Li. 

Another maid pointed at Chu Li's wounds. "He's definitely strong. Look at this stab wound, it's almost healed, such a recovery speed is amazing… Milady, with a body like his, he'll surely live!" 

"For sure!" The girls agreed in unison. 

Lu Yurong slowly nodded, she also believed that Chu Li could make it through. 

"Lady Lu, who did this?" Xiao Mei asked. 

Lu Yurong replied, "The Holy Church of Light's Priest, Fang Qingyang!"

She harrumphed, although she had to admit that Fang Qingyang's cultivation level was far beyond hers.

Lu Yurong had always thought that although she was not the strongest, she was at least within the top ten strongest martial artists of the younger generation that besides the four major sects' new generation and Chu Li, she could stand unrivaled. 

However, with what happened today, she realized that she had a narrow vision. The Li Dynasty also had four major sects and there were probably many who were more powerful than herself in the Holy Church of Light alone. 

"Is this Priest more powerful compared to Chu Li?" Xiao Mei asked. 

"If I did not drag him down, Chu Li could've retreated safely." Lu Yurong admitted. 

She shook her head. 

It did not feel great when she originally intended to help him out but ended up becoming a burden.

Xiao Mei smiled. "We'll just get back at him next time. The Empyrean Fairy Power Lady Lu cultivates is incredibly profound and advances at an extraordinary speed. You can definitely defeat him!" 

"Mmm." Lu Yurong nodded in agreement. 

The Great Light Scripture might be a technique from the Outland but so was her Empyrean Fairy Power, as long as she cultivated it with an intense ferocity, it would not be inferior to the Great Light Scripture!

"I want to start my Isolated Cultivation after this!" Lu Yurong decided. 

"Definitely, we will help you cultivate!" The nine girls nodded. 

Lu Yurong looked down at Chu Li, his force was getting fainter, it was almost at the point of disappearing. 

A scowl appeared on her flawless face as she silently reflected, Chu Li's condition was worsening but she could not do anything to help. 

"Go get my dad!" Lu Yurong ordered anxiously. 

After a reply of acknowledgment, Xiao Mei quickly left. 

"Chu Li!" Lu Yurong suddenly called out. 

She felt the force within Chu Li's body suddenly disappear as if it was completely lost from the world and quickly placed her palm in front of his nose—he was no longer breathing and had died of asphyxiation!

She made a seal with her hands and channeled a heart technique. At that moment, blithesome rays from the sky befell upon her. 

Her entire body warmed up and like white jade and was radiating a warm luster. 

"Milady!" The maids exclaimed. Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

A maid named Xiao Jiao immediately advised. "You can't use your secret skill with such a serious injury!"

Channeling a secret skill while being seriously wounded would add further damage to her current injuries once the secret skill ended. This could thoroughly damage her vitality or worse, cause some form of chronic illness!
