Chapter 234

After Chu Li left the High Duke's Public House, he looked like he had aged into his thirties .

Matured, reliable, bold, and calm . His charming look was full of spirit . Anyone could have told that he was someone righteous and well versed in martial arts .

Chu Li no longer held the Modesty Sword on his waist, switching it out for a simple long knife .

Ten days later on a mid-afternoon, he traveled under the sun to the foothill where the Snow Lunar Pavillion was located .

It was a tall and sloping great hill that was full of greenery as if there were an abundance of green swords stuck into the ground . The peak of the mountain was like a sword pointing to the sky, with the top of the mountain covered by clouds .

There was only one road leading up the mountain . It was very hard to traverse with all the obstacles . Only masters from the martial arts world were capable of scaling it .

Chu Li released his inner energy and limited his martial arts level to an Innate Master . He pretended to be a travel-worn martial arts master . For someone this age, he was already counted as elite in the martial arts world and still the standard where people looked up to him .

In the martial arts world, the number of people who achieved the Grandmaster Boundary did not exceed a handful . It was too easy for him to be found out the moment they checked as well as him being too eye-catching . This definitely was not a good thing for Chu Li .

As Chu Li rode his horse up to the foothill, he saw a paG.o.da hidden to the side of the forest .

There were two old men playing chess in the paG.o.da .

They looked alike – one was thin while the other was fat . They looked like a pair of brothers .

γ€€γ€€

The two men seemed to not hear any noise made by the horse as they were too focused on their chess game .

γ€€γ€€

Chu Li got down from the horse and walked to the paG.o.da . He fist saluted and asked in a low voice, "Both of my elders, may I know if this is the Snow Lunar Pavillion?"

γ€€γ€€

The two elders lazily lifted their heads and sized up Chu Li for a bit .

γ€€γ€€

The fat elder smiled, he did not have many teeth left . He laughed . "Hehe, you young man want to go to the Snow Lunar Pavillion?"

"Yes," replied Chu Li .

"Tell us about yourself . Why do you want to go to the Snow Lunar Pavillion?"

"I am Du Feng . My sister is a follower of the Snow Lunar Pavillion and I am here to visit her . "

"Du Qiu?" The thin elder next to him said . "The young lady that joined the sect not long ago?"

"My sister used to self-cultivate at home previously . She used to be a part-time follower but now she's being taken in as a full-time follower by her master so she was brought to the Snow Lunar Pavillion . "

"Ah, it's her . I'll ask . " the fat elder nodded .

He lifted his brush and wrote a few words . Then, he rolled the paper and put it into a bamboo tube . The tube was sent right to the clouds the moment he whistled, clear and loud .

γ€€

After a while, a long cry was heard from the sky .

γ€€γ€€

Chu Li lifted his head and saw a golden eagle rus.h.i.+ng down towards them .

He turned into a huge eagle the size of a man from a small black spot in the blink of an eye . Its wings were four or five meters long when he stretched them out .

The killing power of a Golden Eagle was really high . Both its claws could break a rock . Its beak could make a hole in one's skull . Usually, Acquired Masters were not their level of opponent .

He flew down with a swirling tornado around him, flapping his broad and long wings while he stood on a pine tree in front of the small paG.o.da . The pine tree bent and almost broke .

The fat elder leaped onto the tip of the tree and tied the bamboo tube onto the eagle's claw .

The golden eagle flapped his broad and long wings again and swirled up a tornado and flew into the sky . Turning into a small spot in the blink of an eye before disappearing into the sky .

Chu Li was impressed .

It was quite great to have a Golden Eagle as a pet . He was quite envious of it and he started having thoughts of getting one .

"You're the biological brother to Lady Du Qiu?"

"We are cousin brother and sister . "

"Oh, no wonder . "

Looking at Chu Li, of course, they would have such a question .

In only a short while, the golden eagle's cry was heard in the sky .

γ€€

"Very well, you can now continue your journey . " The two elders waved their hand .

Chu Li fist saluted and left the paG.o.da . He walked up following the small path .

The small path led to sloping hills . In the end, it was almost a vertical climb . Chu Li had to use both hands and legs to climb it . Those who had a weaker cultivation level in the martial arts world would definitely fail in this climb .

γ€€γ€€

He climbed like a spirit chimpanzee without slowing his pace .

γ€€γ€€

Halfway up the mountain, everything became clear . There was a wide ravine right in front of him .

Looking in from the entrance of the ravine, it was rather green . There was a round lake in the middle of the ravine . It looked as if there was a huge mirror placed on the floor, reflecting the blue sky and white clouds .

γ€€γ€€

There was a waterside paG.o.da on the clear lake . The wooden bridge was bent in shape, its path quiet . Surrounding the ravine was a number of pavilions built on top of the sloping stone wall . There were luxuriously decorated cornices in the air, making people feel relaxed and enchanted as if they were in a place deemed for G.o.ds .

γ€€γ€€

Chu Li was impressed . The Snow Lunar Pavilion deserved the well-known name . It was indeed a famous sect of the martial arts world .

In a small paG.o.da in front of the ravine, a man in green was training with his sword . When the man saw Chu Li, he sheathed his sword and walked towards him and closed fist saluted . "Are you the brave Du?"

Chu Li smiled as he made a closed fist salute . "I, Du Feng am here to pay a visit . "

"Do follow me . " the man in green looked at the long knife Chu Li brought on his waist . He first saluted and smiled . He left the paG.o.da and showed the way forward .

Chu Li sized up the man in green . The man was an Innate Master . He had complete inner energy and spiritual force . He was smart and capable too .

"Sister Du is now living at the waterside pavilion . Let's go," the man in green said . "I am Shen Bai . "

"Brother Shen, thank you," said Chu Li .

Both of them entered the ravine and stepped on thick and soft green gra.s.s . The ravine was warm like the spring . All the flowers bloomed and the ravine was filled with flowers at every corner .

γ€€

Chu Li did not rush to activate the Omniscient Mirror, just in case there were any other masters guarding the place that sensed his abilities .

Both of them stepped onto a small path on a wooden bridge on the lake in no time . Chu Li had delicate senses . He realized that it was even warmer on top of the lake . The lake water was actually warm .

Shen Bai led Chu Li and they entered a waterside pavilion .

This waterside pavilion had a white veil curtain surrounding it . When the wind blew, the curtain floated and moved . It felt like a dream in a fantasy .

Shen Bai knocked on the door and gently said, "Sister Du, there is a guest here . "

"Brother Shen, who is it?" Su Ru's voice pa.s.sed to the outside .

Chu Li said in a low voice, "It's me . "

Su Ru could tell that it was Chu Li the moment she heard his voice . She was surprised . "Come in!"

Shen Bai pushed the door and went in .

The smell of herbs and medicine encapsulated them .

γ€€γ€€

Chu Li furrowed his brow, he saw Su Ru with her face covered by a white veil .

γ€€

Su Ru saw how Chu Li looked, her startled expression disappeared immediately . She plainly asked, "Why did you come?!"

Chu Li replied, "Young Sister, I was working with something else and I pa.s.sed by so I came to visit . What happened? Are you hurt?"

γ€€γ€€

Su Ru scoffed . She entered the room and sat on the couch .

Shen Bai fist saluted and smiled as he said, "I shall not bother, please have your time . "

γ€€γ€€

"Thank you, Brother Shen," replied Su Ru .

Shen Bai smiled as he shook his head and left .

γ€€γ€€

The both of them watched as he left the room, leaving the two of them . Chu Li sized up the house .

The decoration was simple, plain but elegant .

"Why do you look like this now?"

γ€€

"It's the Bone Shrinkage Skill . " Chu Li furrowed his brows and looked at her . "What's with the wound on your face?"

Su Ru touched her own face and sighed . "I'm hurt . "

γ€€

"Who did it?" Chu Li scoffed .

γ€€γ€€

Su Ru lazily said, "The Green Hill . "

"You just joined the sect and you fight already?" Chu Li sat on the garden stool . "Where is Du Xia?"

They gave up their previous pseudonyms and used new ones before they had left the High Duke's Public House . Du Feng, Du Xia, and Du Qiu were the names they came up with . Chu Li was Du Feng, the eldest brother . Du Xia was the elder sister while Du Qiu was the youngest .

After they left the High Duke's Public House, they called each other by their new names whenever they met each other . If they faked their ident.i.ties like this, no one could figure it out . It was enough to hide their ident.i.ties .

"Lady An . . . Sister Du Xia is now isolated for cultivation," Su Ru said . "Master is now isolated to cure his injuries . Master let Sister Du Xia join too . "

"To perceive the Grandmaster Mastery?" Chu Li said . "Is your Master a man or a woman?"

"Hmph, of course, she is a woman!"

"I am afraid that it will leave a scar on your face and you are going to be disfigured . "

"You can say that again!" Su Ru slammed onto the bed as hard as possible, clenching her teeth as she scoffed . "Feng Shaohua!"

γ€€γ€€

Chu Li was surprised . "It was Feng Shaohua who did it?"

Su Ru said full of hatred, "That sc.u.m deserves to die, I must kill him! If it was not for Sister Mo that sacrificed herself to save me, I would have already been killed by him!"
