However, this was all in theory and it might not play out as expected. Wen Tingdao was no easy foe. He put a lot of thought into his plan and would not give up that easily.

Then, a maid knocked on the door gently. She entered the courtyard and greeted him. “Young Master Zhao, Altar Leader Mo has summoned you.”

Chu Li pondered as he looked at the maid and nodded gently. “Okay. Thank you.”

The elegant maid was shocked when she saw his excited gaze and immediately turned around to leave.

Chu Li realized what the maid was thinking and pondered on it. He stood up, left his small courtyard and headed towards Mo Qianjun’s big courtyard.

Mo Qingjun’s courtyard was five times the size of his courtyard. He had a miniature forest, a small arbor with a river and fake greenery.

The hexagonal arbor was situated at the east of the courtyard. The vermillion column and red rooftops gave off an ancient vibe and what surrounded it was man-made mountains, rivers, and greeneries. The entire scene gave off a peaceful atmosphere.

Mo Qianjun was sitting in the little arbor together with Lu Zhen, Zhou Jinchun, and even Ji Xin who had just left his place a while ago was pouring tea while he listened to Mo Qianjun.

Lu Zhen kept staring at her tea that was on the table. Her beautiful face looked pale and it seemed that she had yet to recover.

Zhou Jinchun was holding the tea in his hand and would occasionally move his body. He seemed rather awkward.

Ji Xin seemed to be absent-minded as he was still worried about Li Ruolan and the Sword Moon Sect’s threat. Even if Junior Brother Zhao had Muscle Gaining Pills, there were simply too many ways to harm a girl, let alone destroying their figure.

No one knew if Junior Sister Li would be harmed, but it was certain that she was suffering as of now. It must be agonizing to be kidnapped by someone else. He would do anything to swap places with her.

“If it wasn’t for all of your help, I wouldn’t have been the Altar Leader!” Mo Qianjun raised his teacup and laughed happily. “I’ll thank everyone with this tea as a replacement for alcohol!”

“We’re humbled!” Zhou Jinchun immediately raised his teacup. “Altar Leader you’re too kind. This is what we should do. How could we not help when our comrades are in danger!”

Everyone finished their drinks in one gulp.

“You’re all good comrades!” Mo Qianjun put down the teacup and clapped as he smiled. “This is our Holy Church’s teachings. The teamwork between disciples is what made the Holy Church this powerful. We should be proud of ourselves!”

“Precisely.” Zhou Jinchun smiled.

He looked to his left and right as he realized that Lu Zhen and Ji Xin were quiet and absent-minded. Altar Leader Mo would not be able to have any closure if he did not speak up.

Chu Li strolled slowly to the arbor and fist saluted.

Everyone turned their heads to look at him.

Lu Zhen’s gaze flashed as she looked at him whereas Ji Xin turned his head to the other side as he was still quite unhappy with him. Meanwhile, Zhou Jinchun laughed. “Junior Brother Zhao, come here quickly!”

Mo Qianjun fist saluted as he smiled. “Junior Brother Zhao, I have to sincerely thank you. If it wasn’t for your infliction of a heavy wound on Monk Zhi Shan, the entire Falling Autumn City would have been single-handedly destroyed by him. We’ll be a joke!”

Chu Li responded indifferently, “You’ve overestimated me Altar Leader Mo. Monk Zhi Shan’s injury is hard to determine. He might come back at any given moment!”

“It’s good as long as he would have second thoughts since we’re able to harm him.” Mo Qianjun laughed happily. “Come, let me thank you with this cup of tea as alcohol. Cheers, Junior Brother Zhao!”

The maid walked over gently with the tea in both of her hands. She was the maid that went out to inform Chu Li earlier.

Mo Qianjun finished the drink in one gulp and showed the empty teacup.

Chu Li was pretty forthright as well as he finished the entire cup before sitting opposite Lu Zhen.

Although Chu Li did not want to entertain him any longer, he still had to give him face. After all, this was a basic human etiquette.

“Nice, I’m delighted!” Mo Qianjun laughed loudly. His laughter filled the entire courtyard and his happiness was incredibly contagious. “All of you could have left when you delivered the pills but you all were held back by me and was in danger because of it.”

Zhou Jinchun waved his hand. “What are you talking about Altar Leader Mo, it was our chance to be recognized!”

“Hehe, you’re so pure Junior Brother Zhou. Nice! Nice!” Altar Leader Mo laughed loudly. “Now that Monk Zhi Shan had been injured, we can finally rest and all of you may return to Falling Autumn City to recover.”

Then, he frowned out of the blue. “Oh right, why isn’t Junior Sister Li here yet?”

Zhou Jinchun looked at Ji Xin. Lu Zhen, too, looked over.

Ji Xin said softly, “Junior Sister Li has something important to do and had left before us. She told me to apologize to everyone else.”

“What’s the hurry?” Zhou Jinchun did not understand. “We could’ve helped out if she told us.”

“She doesn’t need our help.” Ji Xin shook his head.

Then, he looked at Chu Li.

It was not something easy to say. After all, she had been kidnapped. It was still okay to tell everyone if Li Ruolan was a man, but it was simply too hard to explain due to her gender. It just did not feel right because the others would judge her with their weird gaze even if she was rescued.

Hence, he had no choice but to hide the situation from everyone else. Only Zhao Dahe and he should know of this incident since they were very close to Junior Sister Li. They could keep her secret from the public.

As long as Junior Sister Li could return, they could act as if nothing had happened.

Chu Li looked at Mo Qianjun.

Mo Qianjun’s happy gaze disappeared for a brief moment as if he was worried about something. However, it was so quick that it was as if it did not happen at all.

Mo Qianjun took note of Ji Xin. He thought to himself that the latter was indeed still inexperienced and was not as good as the experienced when it came to doing things.

He glanced at the little maid at the entrance ever so slightly that no one would notice it at all. The little maid nodded gently as she walked over.

Chu Li let out a soft cough to attract everyone’s attention.

He knew what Mo Qianjun was up to.

The little maid would appear and unknowingly notice a letter that was left behind by the Sword Moon Sect. The content was that they had invited Li Ruolan over and the discussion regarding the Detachment Pills. Then, Altar Leader Mo would forgive their actions and pay them a visit some other day.

Once this letter was out, Mo Qianjun would casually propose that Chu Li should hand over the Detachment Pills.

Mo Qianjun did not care whether Li Ruolan’s reputation would be destroyed while he went to negotiate the matter with the Sword Moon Sect to return Li Ruolan back to them. After all, he was close to Li Ruolan and had already angered her as well. He could teach her a lesson while warning those in the church to be firm on their preference.

He would be seen as selfish and cruel if he were not to hand over the Detachment Pills. Zhou Jinchun and Lu Zhen would definitely distance themselves from him and they would not get along as well. Chu Li would definitely be left alone once this was spread across the church.

If Chu Li were to hand over the Detachment Pills, Mo Qianjun would directly take them to make a trade with the Sword Moon Sect and network with them. This networking would be different from him trading with Sword Moon Sect personally as they were not from the same Sect. After all, it was purely business and it had nothing to do with personal matters. Ultimately, Mo Qianjun would obtain the Less Ultimate Sword and would gift it to the Holy Church. This contribution alone would push Mo Qianjun to become the Priest!

He shook his head in his mind as he realized that those who could reach such a high level were no ordinary people. While Mo Qianjun looked wholesome on the outside, he was incredibly shameless and wicked. Wen Tingdao’s scheme was no worse than Mo Qianjun’s.

Wen Tingdao’s plan had messed up Chu Li’s plan. Everything he did was forcing him to hand over the Detachment Pills.

As everyone gathered their attention, the little maid from afar was approaching them with the letter in her hand.

Chu Li looked at Mo Qianjun’s expression as the latter seemed to be smiling vaguely.

Mo Qianjun shivered. Perhaps he had seen through something?

“Altar Leader Mo, I’ve found a letter while I was cleaning the house!” The little maid said outside of the arbor.

“Oh?” Mo Qianjun turned his head around hastily.

Chu Li coughed softly as he shook his head. “Actually, Brother Ji hasn’t finished yet. While it was true that Li Ruolan had urgent matters to attend to, this incident has to be kept secret and must not be spread to the public.”

“What’s the matter?” Zhou Jinchun questioned immediately. “Junior Brother Zhao, please tell us now. We’re not outsiders at all!”

Chu Li smiled as he glanced at Mo Qianjun. The latter realized that something was off and wanted to make the first move as soon as possible.
