The trio including Chu Li appeared in Glory's Will Courtyard at the House of High Duke .

Siao s.h.i.+ sat in a pavilion, listless and unwilling to move . She didn't even think to return to the Island of Symphony .

Xue Ling frowned her curvy brow, "Young master, it's odd that there's no activity at the other Houses as if they're unaware of a wedding . "

Chu Li fell deep into thought, "It won't be calm . Take an extra notice of Ren Public House . "

"Will they come to create trouble?"

"It's hard to say . "

Siao s.h.i.+ added listlessly, "I thought it was already agreed with Lu Yurong?"

"Even if we are teaming up but we still have to be wary," Chu Li answered .

He couldn't see through Lu Yurong's thoughts and with her history of sneaky tactics, it would be hard to say if she would create havoc . He would have to make a trip to Ren Public House to get to the bottom of the truth .

Siao s.h.i.+ responded, "It's better if they come . Let's see what they can drum up!"

Nearing the wedding date, she suddenly tasted fear .

Although she was ready to make self-sacrifices but when the day really came, she couldn't help but feel fear and anxiousness . It would be beset with difficulties every step of the way entering the Imperial Residence .  

Chu Li could see her insecurities and laughed, "Let's go for a ride somewhere?"

"Where to?" Siao s.h.i.+ was listlessly lethargic .

"To Mountain s.h.i.+wan?" Chu Li asked .

Siao s.h.i.+ regained her spirits, "Mountain s.h.i.+wan?"

Mountain s.h.i.+wan was a forbidden land to the humans . It was the territory of the spirit beasts . Even to Enlightened Masters, it was a land of no return .

However, he had the Limb of G.o.d . Even if he encountered a spirit beast, he could make his escape .

She had never seen a spirit beast all her life .

Xue Ling was hesitant . She wanted to say something but stopped short .

Mountain s.h.i.+wan was too dangerous . If they were to encounter a strong spirit beast, cries would be unheeded and death was imminent .

Chu Li smiled, "Let's take a break and see some spirit beasts . What say you?"

"All right, to Mountain s.h.i.+wan we go!" Siao s.h.i.+ responded, "However, we'll just make rounds on the outside and not venture too deep . It is said that the further inside, the spirit beast gets stronger . Even Enlightened Masters are unmatched . "

"Of course," Chu Li nodded, "Take a look on the outside would suffice . "

Xue Ling lowered her voice, "Young master . . . "

Chu Li smiled, "It's okay . We're not taking a risk . Just a peek . Right, could you find out about Brother Han and meet with his subordinate, Cui Yue, to see if he has any intel for you?"

"Yes," Xue Ling helplessly nodded . She knew her words would fall on deaf ears .

——

"So, this is Mountain s.h.i.+wan?" Siao s.h.i.+ checked out the luxuriant mountain range . She frowned, "That's not right?"

Chu Li and Siao s.h.i.+ stood at the bottom of a large mountain peak . During the time when he came over with Zhao Ying to plant Fairy's beard, it was in a valley of this mountain peak .

But this would only count as the outer mountain range of Mountain s.h.i.+wan with no existence of the spirit beasts .

To enter Mountain s.h.i.+wan, one had to cross this mountain and once inside, it was officially stepping foot into Mountain s.h.i.+wan, which was another world .

He had never been to Mountain s.h.i.+wan . Hence, he could not imagine it in his mind nor could his Limb of G.o.d pa.s.s through .

Chu Li smiled, "This is the outer end . After this mountain is entering Mountain s.h.i.+wan . "

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go," said Siao s.h.i.+ .

Chu Li said, "You better think it through . It is really dangerous inside . Legend has it that it is a land of no return . "

"Isn't it better being on the land of no return?" Siao s.h.i.+ scoffed .

Chu Li nodded and grabbed hold of her waist, disappearing from the original spot and appearing on the mountain peak .

Standing on the mountain top looking at the mountain range, lush and luxuriant lofty mountains came to sight .

Magnificent and firm, densely packed without any end .

Each mountain peak was towering, even blocked by the white clouds midway . The peak was shrouded by lingering gauzy mist and cloud . It was as though they have arrived at a mysterious wonderland .

Mountain s.h.i.+wan was also called the ten thousand mountain peaks . It was said that it was larger than human territory . Even with his Light-body Technique and running for a month, he may not be able to cover all bases .

If one had not witnessed the majestic Mountain s.h.i.+wan, then one would not know how measly humans are .

"How magnificent!" Siao s.h.i.+ sighed .

Seeing such a majestic sight before her, she felt free of worries and her anxiety was swept clean .

She turned and looked at Chu Li, "Shall we enter?"

"Let's go in for a look," laughed Chu Li .

He grabbed Siao s.h.i.+'s wrist and disappeared out of sight, reappearing at the bottom of a large mountain .

Once inside the mountain, they felt their body lightened instantly .

The surrounding air was exceptionally fresh . Taking a breath in, every pore of their body relaxed and their internal organs were cleansed and they felt lighter .

The surrounding air was exceptionally fresh . Taking a breath in, every pore of their body relaxed and their internal organs were cleansed and they felt lighter .

"What a heavy spiritual energy!" Chu Li gasped in admiration .

Circulating the Scripture of Life and Death, spiritual energy from all around started surging into his body .

This spiritual energy was dense and active, quite similar to Glory's Will Tree . Slightly inferior but not that different .

"A good place!" Siao s.h.i.+ felt comfortable all over . Her eyes were filled with crisp green and luscious emerald . Everything was full of life .

Standing at the bottom of the mountain, she was in euphoria, joyous and vibrant .

"If only I could live here!" Siao s.h.i.+ gasped in admiration .

Chu Li smiled, "Not a bad idea . "

He checked out the surroundings with his Omniscient Mirror and did not discover any spirit beast, only luscious spirit herb and spirit tree, and some bugs . There were also various birds . Compared to the birds out there, they were livelier with no other noticeable difference .

These birds were pecking the bugs on the trees in a carefree manner . There were times they leapt down to catch the worms in the earth .

Apart from these birds, there were no other beasts .

"Let's take a look up there," suggested Chu Li .

Siao s.h.i.+ cautioned, "Better be careful now!"

Chu Li grabbed her wrist and disappeared from the spot before landing halfway up the mountain . Mist and fog curled up and the temperature dropped .

He saw a flying beast through his Omniscient Mirror and made a stop quickly without making any sudden movement .

In the Omniscient Mirror, there were two birds similar to white cranes standing on a pine tree . It was standing firm on a single limb while the other shrunk under their abdomen . It had a red crest on top of their head with a narrow and long beak . Their eyes were like jewels, bright with wisdom .

He recognized these were spirit cranes and dared not move . These two spirit cranes had already discovered his prying and turned their heads over to look .

He dared not move .

He recognized these were spirit cranes and dared not move . These two spirit cranes had already discovered his prying and turned their heads over to look .

He dared not move .

These spirit beasts bore intelligence not interior from men and far more wisdom than human .

This was the first time that his prying was sensed from his Omniscient Mirror . The sharp-wittedness of their spirit was indeed far greater than men!

"What's wrong?" Siao s.h.i.+ saw him froze and whispered .

Chu Li smiled bitterly, "Spirit cranes . "

Siao s.h.i.+'s face changed, "Let's leave quick!"

Spirit cranes were amazing creatures and humans couldn't match up with them .  

Chu Li responded, "Let's see how it goes first . "

He was really tempted to be in contact with spirit beasts . He was simply too curious about them .

"Honk . . . " A clear crisp howl was heard . The two spirit cranes spread their long wings and flapped twice before leaping into the air, forming two white light appearing in plain view . They shot over like bolting arrows in overbearing forces, with an intention to rob their lives .

He was startled and pulled Siao s.h.i.+ beside him, hurling his palm in response .

"Bang!" A dull cras.h.i.+ng sound was heard . He dodged away from the pecking of the spirit crane's long beak, hitting straight on the spirit crane but ricocheted away as though hit by das.h.i.+ng horses .

In midair, another spirit crane shot over, its long beak served as a stabbing sword .

Chu Li crouched to avoid the long beak, hurling another palm .

"Bang!" His palm struck the spirit crane .

The feather of the spirit crane was firm and polished, struck by numerous attacks yet his palm energy could not even penetrate their bodies .

Another white light flashed over and a pecking was in sight .
