White-Robed Chief

Panda Novel

Zhu Tianhua and the others soon arrived along with Zheng Lide and a few others. The dozen or so Grandmasters stood in front of the main hall as they looked at Chu Li.

Chu Li waved his hand and said, “You don’t have to worry about anything else. Just fight if I say so!”

“Yes!” came the roaring response.

Although Chu Li had lost his martial arts, his might was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Now that King An was gone, Chu Li had become the pillar of the Imperial Residence, and the people naturally followed his orders.

Chief Zhu opened the bolt to the gate.

The door was instantly knocked open and the two secret guardians stumbled in, startled, before they hurriedly take two steps back.

Chen Donghai, who was dressed in blue, looked relaxed and carefree. He waved his hand and motioned for the secret guardians not to enter first before he slowly stepped into the threshold. When he came to the courtyard, he chuckled and gave a fist salute. “Chief Chu, it’s been a while! Oh, Commander Fu is here as well. I didn’t expect to see Commander Fu here!”

Fu Mengshan frowned at him and said coldly, “This is King An’s Imperial Residence. Why are you here?”

“Haha, you’re so funny, Commander Fu. Since we came to King An’s Imperial Residence, we naturally have a purpose.” Chen Donghai laughed. “As for Commander Fu, I should ask you the same question. You have already been sent to the Imperial Mausoleum, so why are you still in Fairy’s Capital? Oh, could it be that you haven’t given up yet so you came to Chief Chu to ask for advice? Haha, did you also cripple your martial arts and became useless?”

Chu Li said lightly, “It seems that Centurion Chen has achieved great success, and with that, your state of mind has changed. It certainly is worthy of celebration!”

Chen Donghai fist saluted and smiled. “You’re too kind. This time, we have to be a little discourteous. Chief Chu, come with us!”

Chu Li casually said, “What if I don’t?”

“Haha, that’s not up to you, Chief Chu.” Chen Donghai smiled. “No one can decline an invitation from our Secret Guardian Hall. I hope that Chief Chu won’t make any unnecessary struggles and remain amicable.”

Chu Li laughed. “Coming to King An’s Imperial Residence and behaving atrociously, Centurion Chen is becoming more imposing. Men, seize them!”

“Yes!” Zhu Tianhua and the others rushed over.

The remaining twelve secret guardians also rushed in.

A scuffle immediately broke out.

Fu Mengshan shook his head as he smiled bitterly. “Chu Li, causing such a ruckus just won’t do.”

Chu Li smiled confidently. “Are you suggesting that I obediently let them take me away? I don’t know if I can stay alive then.”

“They won’t dare to do anything to you,” Fu Mengshan said.

Chu Li shook his head. “Gu Yu doesn’t have so many scruples. If I really do enter the Secret Guardian Hall’s prison, they’ll flay me even if they don’t kill me. So it’s better not to enter at all… Chief Zu, call the Consort!”

“Understood.” Chief Zhu hurriedly left.

While dealing with Zhu Tianhua’s attack, Chen Donghai cried, “Chief Chu, you dare to fight against and attack the secret guardians?”

“Who knows if you’re real or fake secret guardians?” Chu Li said lazily. “Besides, so what if you are secret guardians? Is King An’s Imperial Residence a place where secret guardians can just enter at will?”

Xiao Shi hurried over and saw Chen Donghai and the others.

Xiao Qi had followed beside her.

She frowned and said, “What are you going to do with them?”

“Cripple them all,” Chu Li said lazily.

Fu Mengshan jumped into a fright at that sentence and hurriedly interjected, “Chu Li, think carefully!”

Chu Li said, “It’s settled!”

“Good!” Xiao Qi cried. Her figure turned into a white flash before it shuttled through the crowd. The glint of her sword was like electricity, cutting wrists and puncturing their Dantian as well as crippling their cultivation.

Chen Donghai could not believe that Chu Li would do something like this. Among the secret guardians he brought, four were Grandmasters, and the remaining were top-notch perfected innate masters who were almost at the Grandmaster’s Boundary.

In fact, these were all elites of Mei Yi Courtyard and had positions as secret guardians, but they were no match before Xiao Qi. He had never thought that there would be such a day.

Xiao Qi ignored Chen Donghai as her blade light flashed. With every attack, a secret guardian was crippled. In the blink of an eye, twelve secret guardians with cripples martial arts were lying on the ground.

Chu Li revealed a smile.

After Zhu Tianhua watched Xiao Qi’s martial arts, it seemed that they were not helping at all. So, they worked even harder to overwhelm Chen Donghai.

Although Chen Donghai’s martial arts was strong, he did not have much time to cultivate. For Zhu Tianhua, on top of his astonishing innate talent, he practiced hard and had great advancements. At this time, Chen Donghai was tottering on the verge of collapse and would lose at any moment.

Chen Donghai cried out, “Chu Li, have you gone mad? Do you know what you’re doing?”

Chu Li said, “We’re only crippling a few secret guardians. What’s so mad about that?”

“You… You…” Chen Donghai was speechless.

The position of the secret guardians in the Secret Guardian Hall had always been extraordinary as it was directly attributed to the power to the Emperor. Even if there were people who wanted a challenge, they would always end up running away. No one had ever been as bold as Chu Li, wanting to cripple twelve secret guardians.

“Zhu Tianhua, step back!” Xiao Qi ordered.

Zhu Tianhua hurriedly retreated.

In a flash, Xiao Qi appeared behind Chen Donghai with her blade light glinting.

“How dare you!” Chen Donghai roared. His figure suddenly expanded as he activated a secret skill.

Following that, Xiao Qi’s blade light accelerated and hit Chen Donghai’s Dantian in an instant.

There seemed to be a ‘whoosh’ as Chen Donghai shrunk into a ball. With a pale face, he stared at Chu Li in disbelief.

In no way had he imagined that Chu Li would dare to cripple him.

According to his expectations, Chu Li would be angry when he saw him, but he would allow himself to be taken away and submit himself to Chen Donghai’s will.

He had never thought that Chu Li would be so violent where he would directly attack the secret guardians, crippling them of their martial arts. Even Chen Donghai himself was not spared. Could it be that Chu Li wanted to silence them and completely eliminate them?

Thinking about this, he felt a chill down his back. Chu Li was in a state of madness now, so it was not impossible for something like that to happen.

Chu Li approached him and smiled.

Chen Donghai was immediately terrified. Looking at Chu Li’s smile, he had a feeling that Chu Li had gone completely insane.

Chu Li sighed. “My martial arts was crippled, so I’m no longer a secret guardian. I wonder if everyone here will still be secret guardians after being crippled. Centurion Chen, it seems that it’s also the end of you as a centurion!”

“Chu Li, you’re insane. Do you know what you’re doing?” Chen Donghai still could not believe that Chu Li had dared to do this.

Chu Li smiled. “Is it any of Centurion Chen’s business whether I’m insane or not?”

“You…” Chen Donghai gritted his teeth, wanting nothing more than to swallow Chu Li as a whole.

Originally, he had thought that he could make an eyebrow-raising drama and finally be able to step on Chu Li’s head to vent his resentment. Yet, he had never thought that Chu Li would be so crazy as to be so daring, allowing the Imperial Residence Protectors to attack and cripple them.

In the beginning, it was already astonishing that Xiao Qi could kill two secret guardians, but now Chu Li was even crazier than Xiao Qi. This time, it was thirteen secret guardians, including a centurion as well. Was Chu Li tired of living?

Chu Li smiled. “Men, throw Centurion Chen and the others out of the residence!”

“Chu Li, I’ll be waiting to see your fate!” Chen Donghai gnashed his teeth and glared venomously at him.

Chu Li waved his hand and motioned for the men to move.

Zhu Tianhua and the others obeyed him.

Although they thought that this viper had been poked too hard, it still felt incredibly pleasant. It was time for outsiders to know that King An’s Imperial Residence was not easy to push around. Even though King An was dead, no one could provoke them!
