Chapter 1163: Rematch

“Men, there are assassins!” Elder Su shouted, his voice like a thunderbolt exploding in the night sky.

He learned this move from Chu Li. This was not the Zheng Dynasty or the Fu Dynasty, but the Li Dynasty. The Prince’s identity was honorable. If anything happened, the Mayor’s future would be destroyed.

The six men in black drew their swords and stabbed towards Sun Yucheng.

Chu Li shook his head and flashed over beside them. Then, his hands started brandishing, and a series of energy blades instantly shot out.

Two blades shot towards one person each. The Omniscient Mirror and Nature Restoration Manifestation coordinated with the Light Blade. It was impossible or someone with lower cultivation than him to even come close to it.

Immediately, two of the men in black were shot in the heart.

The other four men in black saw that the situation was bad and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Several Main Town Residence Protectors were wounded, and there was an uproar. Only when the Mayor arrived in a hurry did everything calm down.

The Mayor was a burly, bear-like middle-aged man, and was a Mayor who had accumulated military achievements. He seemed extremely furious, but he apologized sincerely with a wide smile.

Chu Li appraised this Mayor.

When the Mayor stepped down, Chu Li said, “Prince, if I’m not mistaken, this Mayor is one of the Six Prince’s people.”

“Sixth Imperial Brother?” Sun Yucheng was shocked.

Chu Li said, “He was secretly tipped off.”

Sun Yucheng frowned sharply, his expression sinking.

Elder Su snorted, “I didn’t expect the Sixth Prince’s limbs to stretch so far!”

“The Sixth Prince had been prepared for this, otherwise the assassins would not have been this quick,” Chu Li said.

Sun Yucheng said, “It’ll be too conspicuous to send out big masters.”

Chu Li smiled. “They came to pick up a freebie. They thought we were injured and wanted to hit us while we were down, thinking that wouldn’t have recovered so quickly. This was all thanks to the Mayor.”

The Mayor must have seen their pale faces and injuries and thought that there was an opportunity to take advantage of them. However, they were just tired and recovered soon after. Otherwise, it would not be just these six assassins coming.

Sun Yucheng said, “After this, Sixth Imperial Brother will have to be honest!”

Elder Su and Elder Ren nodded, their expressions relaxed.

Elder Su laughed. “With Young Zhao, we aren’t afraid of any assassins the Sixth Prince sends.”

Chu Li laughed and shook his head.

Elder Ren said, “There was Liang Yinge from the Zheng Dynasty, but the Sixth Prince doesn’t have any masters like Liang Yinge by his side.”

They all knew that if not for Liang Yinge, the Zheng Dynasty’s Mysterious Pavilion’s masters would not be able to block Chu Li off at all. Liang Yinge could stop Chu Li, while the others suppressed the two of them, so they ended up beaten in all aspects.

Liang Yinge’s status in the Zheng Dynasty was far from the Saint’s, but his status in the martial arts world was even higher. He was a top-notch master and had few rivals under the heavens, which was why he was so unscrupulous.

The Li Dynasty did not have a Liang Yinge, and Grandmasters in the Li Dynasty who could suppress Chu Li were few and far in between. As far as they knew, the Sixth Prince did not have such a master.

With this confidence, they were relaxed.

The four sat down and started drinking again.

“Brother Zhao, do you want to go to Goddess Attraction Mountain?” Sun Yucheng picked up a cup and offered Chu Li a toast.

Chu Li shook his head thoughtfully. “I’m curious about Goddess Attraction Mountain, but I have no plans to go there. It’s too boring.”

“Boring?” Sun Yucheng asked.

Chu Li said, “I can only go there for one year, and the Dragon Taming Technique has to be crippled. It seems the rules at Goddess Attraction Mountain are too great, and I can’t stand being restrained!”

Sun Yucheng nodded disappointedly.

He already knew the past of the identity Chu Li was adopting, Zhao Dahe. He knew that Zhao Dahe was arrogant and obstinate, and only Ninth Elder Sister could hold him down. Even so, he turned a blind eye to the rules of the Holy Church of Light and wreaked a lot of damage. He really was a man who would not stand for rules and was not suitable for entering Goddess Attraction Mountain.

Goddess Attraction Mountain was not like the Holy Church of Light and did not cherish talents like Ninth Elder Sister. There was no tolerance for disobedience, so if he entered Goddess Attraction Mountain like that, it would indeed end up in disaster.

Chu Li glanced at Sun Yucheng and shook his head secretly.

Sun Yucheng was still unwilling to give up and wanted to tempt him to deal with the Sixth Prince.

Those born in the royal family rarely knew about kindness. Saving him was taken as something natural, and the duty of others, so he did not need to feel gratitude.

Even after Chu Li just saved his life, he started scheming against him in the blink of an eye.

“Prince, the Saint warned before that the Holy Church of Light disciples cannot take part in the Prince’s struggles,” Chu Li murmured. “However, since the Prince and I share the same trials and tribulations, if the Prince is really in danger, I naturally won’t stand idly by!”

Sun Yucheng gave a fist saluted and smiled. “Thank you, Brother Zhao!”

The Li Dynasty royal family had a rule forbidding internal strife, but there was a bad precedent.

His Imperial Father had stepped on his brothers’ corpses to ascend to the throne, so the current generation of Princes all had the thought of killing their brothers. If they did not kill others, others would kill them.

…

After they ate and drank their fill, they went back to their respective rooms to rest. They would continue on their journey the next day.

Chu Li disappeared from the room in a flash and appeared atop a mountain.

The moonlight was like water, and on top of a boulder on the mountain was Liang Yinge, dressed in a blue robe and sitting cross-legged.

Chu Li sat on another boulder and lightly narrowed his eyes at Liang Yinge.

Liang Yinge’s body was shrouded in a layer of lunar corona, and he was breathing moonlight in and out as if it was a tangible substance. It stretched in and out between his nose, and his body swelled and shrunk constantly.

Chu Li frowned at him and felt a great danger.

Liang Yinge in his current state was extremely dangerous, more dangerous than ever before. His martial arts cultivation was indeed mysterious and seemed to be related to the lunar corona.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze deep and clear. Liang Yinge’s bright and sharp eyes seemed to pierce Chu Li.

Chu Li took a step back and said lowly, “What martial arts is that?”

“Crescent Cryptic’s Nine Kills Trial!” Liang Yinge said casually.

His handsome face was calm and expressionless, clearly still in a mental state of cultivating martial arts. A hint of killing intent faintly loomed, dark and unpredictable, almost undetectable.

Chu Li grew more serious and closely stared at Liang Yinge’s eyes.

Liang Yinge said lightly, “The mountains here are very beautiful. It’ll be a blessing to have one’s bones buried here!”

He lightly slapped a palm over.

Chu Li suddenly disappeared from his spot in a flash and reappeared behind Liang Yinge. He shot out two flying blades.

However, the shots only hit Liang Yinge’s shadow. Liang Yinge appeared behind Chu Li and pressed his palm down, abnormally fast.

Chu Li turned and slammed his palm on Liang Yinge’s.

“Bang!” Chu Li was sent flying back in the air.

He thought to cultivate the Heavenly King Palm as soon as possible, otherwise he would be too disadvantaged. Layer after layer of palm energy impacted his organs, and he tried his best to transform using the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture.

However, the Crescent Cryptic’s Nine Kills Trial was exceptionally refined, and he could not completely transform.

Chu Li spurted out blood in the air and was hit again. This time, it was a serious injury. The incomparably refined palm energy continuously destroyed his body.

He kept retreating, and his Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture continued to operate, neutralizing the palm energy.

Liang Yinge disappeared again.

Chu Li shut his eyes and waved his hands.

“Whoosh whoosh!” Two blade lights shot towards the void.

Liang Yinge’s body flashed there before disappearing again.

After Chu Li spit out a mouthful of blood, his hands waved again and shot towards another space, obstructing Liang Yinge from approaching.

This Crescent Cryptic’s Nine Kills Trial was too sharp for him to restrain. He could not let Liang Yinge get him in close quarters.
