As short and fat Elder wielded his sword at lightning speed to flick the flying blades away, he had to back off.

However, because the force from the flying blades was extremely ferocious, that seemed to be the short and fat Elder’s weakness. Since he had failed to block it off, he could only move backward to unload it.

With that, Li Ruolan had already landed. After she staggered for a few steps, she quickly charged toward the short and fat Elder.

Chu Li warned, “Senior Sister Li, don’t use your sword against him. Let me handle this!”

As he yelled, he kept swinging his right hand.

“Tss, tss, tss, tss…” Continuous whistles filled the air when blade energy after blade energy hit short and fat Elder like the momentum from a thousand arrows.

Short and fat elder exercised his sword as fast as he could, and it looked as if a light shield was formed in front of him. While he could block the blade energies, he was forced to move backward, such that he went 30 meters away. On top of that, he broke out in cold sweat. Had he not retreat that far away, it would be too strenuous for him to block the blade energy.

Ji Xin looked at Chu Li helplessly as Chi Lu had almost drained all of his inner energy.

Chu Li roared, “Get lost if you don’t want to die!”

Even though short and fat elder wore a brown shirt, bits of soil could still be seen on him. His eyes were unusually cold. “You killed Senior Brother Liu and Senior Brother Zheng, Hai Cang Mountain won’t just let it be!”

Chu Li raised his voice. “I’m Zhao Dahe and I’ll be waiting for Hai Cang Mountain!”

“Alright!” Short and fat Elder glanced at the three of them with electric cold eyes. Then, he finally fixed his gaze on Chu Li. “Zhao Dahe, Hai Cang Shan vows to kill you!”

“Get lost!” Chu Li sneered.

Short and fat Elder gritted his teeth before he fluttered into the forest. His body seemed to have turned into a feather, which was indescribably odd.

Ji Xin sighed a long breath of relief. “Man, they haven’t dropped the matter yet!”

“Two of their elders are dead, how can they reconcile to that?” Li Ruolan sighed. She said solemnly, “Hai Cang Mountain’s swordsmanship is very weird, especially their blade force, which makes one numb upon touch…”

Chu Li asked, “Does the Holy Church have their heart technique?”

Unquestionably, he also felt that their long swords gave out electric shocks which were truly queer. It had even touched his acupuncture point. If someone else was touched instead, that person’s life could have ended right away, to the extent that there would be no point of return.

“No.” Li Ruolan shook her head. “Our Sutra Library has Hai Cang Mountain’s sword manual, but unfortunately, we don’t have their sword and heart technique to match it. I heard that Hai Cang Mountain’s heart technique is a secret that will never be told.”

Chu Li frowned. “When we fight against those from Hai Cang Mountain, we can only attack from afar.”

“You managed to restrain Hai Cang Mountain’s swordsmanship perfectly.” Li Ruolan turned to look at Chu Li seriously. “Junior Brother Zhao, you must be careful because they’re not joking. They will definitely find a way to kill you.”

Not only was it because Zhao Dahe had killed their elders, but it was also because his Light Blade could restrain Hai Cang Mountain’s swordsmanship. For the better of Hai Cang Mountain’s disciples, they must kill him to avoid any future troubles.

They were worried that Zhao Daohe’s cultivation would become more threatening if he continued to train, by which he might be undefeatable by anyone from Hai Cang Mountain. In that case, it would be terrifying to those from Hai Cang Mountain. Hence, they had to eliminate him before that happened.

He was different from the Enlightened Masters who were bound to Heaven’s Rule, and could not act as they wished; Chu Li was different.

Chu Li chuckled. “I’ll see if they have the capability to!”

“Junior Brother Zhao, you’re extremely heroic. I admire you!” Ji Xin praised. Then, he asked, “But what about the inner energy earlier?”

“The Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture…” Feeling apologetic, Chu Li gave him a fist salute. “I had borrowed your inner energy earlier, Senior Brother Ji. Please don’t blame me.”

“If I can lend you a helping hand to save Junior Sister Li from danger, that’ll be the best.” Ji Xin smiled. “At least I didn’t just watch helplessly!”

An inexplicable feeling of guilt rose in his heart again. Earlier when that happened, there was no way he could have saved Junior Sister Li in time. If it was not for Zhao Dahe who reacted, Junior Sister Li might not have survived. Sure enough, Zhao Dahe’s Light Blade had a well-deserved reputation.

Li Ruolan looked at Chu Li. “There might be an assassin, so let’s return as quickly as possible?”

Chu Li nodded.

Ji Xin agreed. “Let’s go.”

Before they left, Li Ruolan suggested, “Senior Brother Ji, you’ve consumed too much energy. Let me carry him.”

She could tell that Ji Xin’s face was turning pale. Evidently, Junior Brother Zhao had absorbed too much of his inner energy which had tired him out.

“There’s no need to, there’s no need to.” Ji Xin immediately stopped her and said firmly, “I’m alright!”

Chu Li mentioned, “Let Senior Brother Ji do it then.”

He had read Ji Xin’s mind. However, he also wanted to stop Li Ruolan from touching him as he was jealous.

Chu Li shook his head.

‘It’s impossible for me to move Li Ruolan. Ji Xin is worrying too much.’

He understood that a good appearance was really important. If he were to be approached by an unattractive lady, even if she was an extremely gentle person, he would not be moved.

With that, the three of them went on their way. Throughout their journey, they were very cautious as they were afraid that there would be another assassination.

During the evening, when the sun was setting, they stopped at a mountain and showered in the afterglow of the sunset.

“Junior Sister Li, let’s rest here for a while.” Ji Xin smiled. “We’re already inside Li Dynasty’s border, they won’t dare to come anymore!”

“Let’s move slightly further.” Li Ruolan added, “We should return as soon as we can.”

“We’ll be able to return to Great Light Peak by evening tomorrow.” Ji Xin asked, “What do you think, Junior Brother Zhao?”

“Resting sounds good,” Chu Li agreed. “Senior Brother Ji should meditate for a while.”

It was then when Li Ruolan understood his intentions. Thus, she could only agree too. “Alright, let’s rest here.”

They walked another 20 meters down before they stopped at an area where there was a pile of stones.

Ji Xin made a fire in which he then caught some wild animals and barbequed them.

As the three of them sat around the fire, Ji Xin kept turning the wild animals as he cooked them. That had caused some oil to fall into the fire, releasing a strong aroma.

The flames made Li Ruolan’s face look reddened. From time to time, she added firewood.

While Chu Li sat on one side, Ji Xin and Li Ruolan sat side by side opposite him.

He lowered his head and sat still as if he was meditating like a monk, so to avoid looking at them exchanging love glances.

Occasionally, the sound of wood cracking was heard.

As Chu Li sat quietly, Ji Xin cooked wild animals, and Li Ruolan watched the fire. It was quiet and peaceful.

“Haha…” All of a sudden, a loud laugh was heard which broke the silence. Chu Li shut his eyes and remained still as if he did not hear it.

When Ji Xin turned to look, he found a young man who was fluttering over to them. His face darkened. “Wen Tingdao!”

Wen Tingdao was a handsome yet thin young man. He grinned as he said, “Ji Xin, it was so hard to chase after you!”

“What do you want?” Ji Xin sneered.

He put the wild animals down, cleaned his hands, then stood in front of Li Ruolan. “This is Li Dynasty, how dare you enter our borders? Aren’t you afraid that the Holy Church will hunt you down?”

“You can enter Fu Dynasty, so why can’t I come to Li Dynasty!” Wen Tingdao giggled. “This is your lover, right? Which one?”

He first pointed at Li Ruolan, then at Chu Li.

After Li Ruolan put on her veil to cover her beautiful face, she cast a sidelong glance at him.

Since she had pretty eyes, her glare was not at all threatening, but mesmerizing instead.

“Oh, what a pretty lady. Sadly, you have to be with Ji Xin but how about you come with me?” Wen Tingdao beamed. “Follow me back to Fu Dynasty. Fu Dynasty is unlike Li Dynasty, it’s ten times more flourishing there, whereas Li Dynasty is only a mountain village. A beauty like you shouldn’t stay here!”

Li Ruolan stared at him coldly without saying a word.

“Nice, I like you more now!” Wen Tingdao clapped his hands together and laughed out loud. “Ji Xin, I’m taking this beauty with me. As for you, get lost!”

Ji Xin gritted his teeth. “You with the surname Wen, you’re looking for trouble!”
