Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the main hall sat Fu ngshan and Xu Huande.
“Commander!” Chu Li gave a fist salute with a smile upon entering the main hall. “Commander Xu!”
Fu ngshan waved a hand and shook his head while sighing. “You...”
Xu Huande sighed as well. “We went through such lengths to create that alias for you, but you, ugh...”
Chu Li smiled sheepishly and apologized, “I’m sorry for doing so, Commanders, but I was left with no other choice. If I had insisted on using that alias, it might’ve gone to waste instead.”
“That’s true.” Fu ngshan chuckled. “To do what you did, you had to use your real identity. It was quite an incredible feat.”
After they had received news about that incident, they could only look at each other speechlessly. Chu Li had managed to gather so many Grandmasters in one go and had even been able to command them with ease, he had truly demonstrated his remarkable ability to command his n. This showed strong leadership material.
Xu Huande shook his head. “You have given the Holy Church of Light quite a surprise indeed. You can expect them to seek revenge later!”
Fu ngshan said, “The Holy Church of Light will surely retaliate on a large scale this ti around. Young Chu, you should prepare yourself for this.”
Chu Li replied, “I’ll have to go into isolated cultivation then.”
“It won’t be that easy for you. You can’t just go into isolated cultivation,” Xu Huande said with a huff. “You think they have no other way of dealing with you?”
Fu ngshan added, “They’ll most probably take out their anger on Princess Xiao or the Yi Public House, or even the Ji Public House. In any case, they won’t leave you in peace. How else will the Holy Church of Light protect their dignity?”
“You’ve created too big a spectacle by having martial arts masters from so many factions and sects work together. Your ability to form such vertical and horizontal alliances is indeed one of a kind!” Xu Huande muttered and shook his head. “This will make the Holy Church of Light more wary of you. If they’ve already gone to such an extent now, what will they do in the future? They’ll certainly beco a national malady. We must get rid of them!”
“Unfortunately, we’ve been very unsuccessful in infiltrating the Holy Church of Light.” Fu ngshan sighed. “Thus, we haven’t been able to scout their movents. Otherwise, by receiving such information beforehand, we would’ve been able to take proper precautions. Right now, there’s nothing we can do.”
Xu Huande shook his head. “We’re at a loss.”
Chu Li remained silent.
Initially, he planned to kill off the Asuras and work on cultivating the Nature Restoration Manifestation. After achieving a certain level in his Nature Restoration Manifestation cultivation and breaking through Xiao Qi’s inner state, he would win her heart and they would spend the rest of their lives together.
Once he had won her heart, he would then focus his attention on achieving the Heaven God’s Boundary by firstly learning the Spirit Crane Technique. Since he had Spirit Cranes as friends, he would be able to achieve better results in his Spirit Crane Technique cultivation. He would be at a greater advantage compared to the regular disciples of Green Deer Cliff.
Unfortunately, after having tried hard to seek out the technique so many tis and even having secretly tailed Zhao Tianxing to watch him cultivate, Chu Li had yet to learn the Spirit Crane Technique.
Zhao Tianxing would never cultivate the Spirit Crane Technique because it was too basic. At that point, he was already cultivating a more advanced heart technique and had ceased to practice the Spirit Crane Technique, casting it aside.
The Spirit Crane Technique was the fundantal heart technique of Green Deer Cliff and could not be taught to outsiders. Xiao Yueling, as a Green Deer Cliff disciple, would not teach it to him. She had told him that it would be useless for outsiders to learn the Spirit Crane Technique anyway, because, without the legacy of Green Deer Cliff, they would have no use for the technique.
His intention, however, was to learn the Spirit Crane Technique to cultivate the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait.
He wanted to find a way to acquire the martial arts of the four major sects of both the Ji Dynasty and the Li Dynasty. By achieving mastery through a comprehensive study of these martial arts, he would be able to achieve the peak in cultivating these two schools of martial arts. With that, there would be so hope for him to break through into the Heaven God’s Boundary.
However, this big battle had made him realize that not everything would happen according to plan, for accidents could happen anywhere and everywhere.
While he wished to kill off Asuras in peace, it would be impossible for him to do so as the Holy Church of Light would stop at nothing to take him down.
Xu Huande exhaled sharply. “You’ve been in great danger lately. You have to be wary of any assassination attempt!”
Chu Li shook his head and sighed. “I’m not afraid of facing an assassination attempt. I’m only scared that they’ll try to assassinate others close to .”
“That would be inevitable,” Xu Huande said. “The more you care about others, the more danger they’ll be in. That’s why you have to pretend not to care.”
Chu Li frowned and paused for a mont before saying, “That won’t work. Please allow Chu Lingfeng to enter the Li Dynasty and investigate the Holy Church of Light thoroughly!”
“What nonsense!” Xu Huande huffed.
Fu ngshan waved his hand in dismissal. “We don’t have to go to that extent yet... Young Chu, the Holy Church of Light already have their ways of dealing with you in the Ji Dynasty, let alone in the Li Dynasty. Don’t ever entertain such an idea!”
Xu Huande added, “Don’t think you’re unbeatable. You’re still far from that.”
Chu Li slowly nodded.
He agreed with that, because he was indeed very far away from being unbeatable.
Fu ngshan said, “Now, the Yi Public House isn’t like before, so you won’t have to worry so much about them.”
“Understood,” Chu Li replied. “However, we still have to infiltrate the Holy Church of Light. They’ve even planned to snatch away the High Duke dallion. This ti, they went after the Ji Public House. I wonder which High Duke’s Public House they will target next ti. The imnsity of their ambition is too terrifying. If we don’t make sufficient arrangents now, we’ll encounter endless troubles in the future!”
“Well then, let’s arrange for a few more of our people to infiltrate them,” Fu ngshan suggested. “It might work this ti.”
Chu Li shook his head. “That has never worked before, and it never will. Let do it personally!”
“This is too dangerous!” Fu ngshan knitted his brows together.
Chu Li was to be their future successor. He should never put himself at such a huge risk!
Xu Huande scoffed. “You must realize that this is the Li Dynasty we’re talking about. If you ever get found out, there’ll be nowhere for you to run. Furthermore, the Holy Church of Light has many eccentric people with special powers. It’ll be impossible to guard yourself effectively against all of them, and there’ll be no way to tell which of them may discover you!”
Fu ngshan said, “We should just leave this to the others.”
Chu Li replied, “I’m planning to play safe by starting from the very bottom and working my way up step by step. I’m prepared to spend a few years to build a solid foundation instead of demanding quick results. I believe that there will co a ti for to rise in seniority. After ten years, I may be able to beco an Altar Leader or even a Priest!”
“Hehe...” Fu ngshan and Xu Huande began to laugh.
“Young Chu, you’re very bold to have such thoughts!” Fu ngshan said while laughing.
Xu Huande shook his head and said, “These four major sects all have their own secret skills to test your loyalty. The result will be just like what happened to the people we’ve sent to the Tempest Temple. None of them succeeded. Those we’ve sent to the Holy Church of Light were people of outstanding talent, yet none of them survived.”
Xu Huande concluded, “That’s why you shouldn’t go and seek your death. Be obedient and focus on cultivating your martial arts. When you’ve beco stronger in your martial arts, then you’ll be able to take them head-on.”
Chu Li ignored them. “Will the Secret Guardians Hall be able to provide a clean alias for to enter the Li Dynasty territory?”
“Young Chu, you can’t be serious, right?” Fu ngshan laughed.
Chu Li began to nod as he replied, “Yes, I’d like to give it a try!”
“Stop fooling around!” Xu Huande huffed.
Chu Li responded, “There’s no harm in trying. If the situation gets risky, I won’t gamble my life away.”
“It’ll already be too late then. Once you get exposed, you’ll be killed!” Xu Huande said.
Fu ngshan cautioned, “Young Chu, this is the most dangerous option you could possibly choose.”
Chu Li said seriously, “Commander, soone has to give it a try at so point. Otherwise, we’ll never be able to do anything about the Holy Church of Light!”
Fu ngshan turned to look at Xu Huande.
Xu Huande shook his head. “I don’t agree!”
Chu Li said, “Don’t worry, Commander Xu. I won’t go there right away. After so ti, when I’ve settled my affairs here, I’ll go and live outside for a while before infiltrating the Holy Church of Light!”
Fu ngshan pondered over it.
He was very confident in Chu Li’s capabilities now. He had always been able to accomplish whatever tasks others could not.
Until today, none of their secret guardians had managed to infiltrate the Holy Church of Light. However, Chu Li was capable of doing what was impossible for others. Perhaps it would work. This matter was too important for the Secret Guardians Hall!
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps ca from outside. Then, Zhe Liang strode in with a bamboo tube in hand. “Commander, this is urgent news!”
Fu ngshan quickly took the tube from him, opened the wax seal, and took out a roll of paper. After unrolling and reading it, he frowned and passed it to Xu Huande. After Xu Huande had gone through it, he handed it to Chu Li.
Chu Li glanced through it and knitted his brows together, secretly feeling happy at the news.
