The province of Yi was an archipelago with exactly ninety-nine islands Chu Li was headed to the hall of hly 18 miles from the East Garden
Chu Li was a well-built and a relatively leanwith the wind His looks were average, but he was sazed upon the surface of the pond as if he was deep in thought
Nineteen years, two months, and three days! It had been nineteen years, two months, and three bloody days!
Chu Li was a credited researcher of particle physics, an honor student with a bright future, and probably the next big scientist! However, a tiny littlean experiment caused an explosion that cost his life He ca, and has since been living a new life!
”Bahts He directed his attention towards a shi+ning golden carp bouncing on his boat
He shook his head, bent his body down to pick the carp up in order to throw it back into the lake
As he rose to stand again, a tall building entered his view
A tall building had a height of over a hundredwas thick and heavy, syht and authority
The bronze building was the Hall of Martial Arts!
The front of the Hall of Martial Arts was a wide training field covered in redon the field It could be seen that they were engaging each other with swords and fists, fighting and learning from one anotherThe place looked very lively
Chu Li dise field A few steps away, a good looking and beautiful young gentle with confidence
Relatively tall of a man, a full head taller than Chu Li He had his ar out his first name
”Chu! What are you doing here!?”
Chu Li furrowed his brows
”Out of the way, a good dog doesn't block the road!”
”Hah!” The young man chuckled
”Are you here to train, by any chance?”
Chu Li smiled as he continued to walk towards his destination
”Zhuo Fei Yang, do you believe that if I lied down on the floor and started screa, you'd be basically doomed?”
Guards frohts, as well as fights with other guards frouards from the Public House were separated into two ranks, the Protector, and the Scribes One worked for the military, and the other was for the more civil issues They were especially warned to not have, or provoke, any personal fights They would be demoted from their ranks if they were found to have done so or even be chased out of the province if the incident was particularly serious
Chu Li was a Scribe without a rank, while Zhuo Fei Yang was an eighth-ranked Protector It was considered taboo for a Protector to attack a Scribe If Chu Li were to screa would be detained and punished
Zhuo Fei Yang furrowed his brows,
”Fine! You are completely shameless, Chu!”
Chu Li continued to walk
Zhuo Fei Yang tilted his body to let Chu Li pass He spoke while equipped with quite a handsoloomy face,
”You only kno to use these little tricks, Chu!”
Chu Li smiled,
”These little tricks are h to deal with you, idiot”
Zhuo Fei Yang stared daggers at Chu Li with his fist being clenched harder and harder by theit at any ht at him with a face full of disdain and provocation
Suddenly, Zhuo Fei Yang's face brightened up as a large sloomy face He waved much like an excited five-year-old, ”Sister Zhao!”
A beautiful lady walked slowly towards the eyebrows A visibly elegant and gentle woman
Chu Li's expression slightly shi+fted Zhao Ying, the woman who joined the public house around the saentle It was difficult for a man to not find a way to fall for her
”Brother Zhuo?”
Zhao Ying stepped towards the surprised
”Brother Chu?”
Chu Li, catching a whiff of the light and fragrant s, smiled
”Sister Zhao, it has been quite a long time since we last met”
Ever since he was assigned to the East Garden, he had been spendingto hatch a plan to change his own fate through knowledge and education It was rare for him to visit the Hall of Martial Arts
As to why he came to the Hall of Martial Arts in the first place? He was faced with an obstacle while training the Minute Pulse Cleansing Technique, and he was looking for a rare ht have cited it
Zhao Ying smiled,
”Congratulations, Chu Li! Being assigned to the East Garden reat job!”
Chu Li nodded as he smiled,
”It's not too bad”
The East Garden belonged to the Third Lady of the Yi Public House, Siao Qi, on an island named The Guardian of Jade Chu Li was noted to be the only one serving Lady Siao Qi on the island, along with so there, along with having a chance to ed by the Third Lady, the rest of their lives would pretty much be set
Zhuo Fei Yang took a deep breath, believing that Chu Li was definitely a lucky ned to, he was dropped into the East Garden! God must have truly been blind He took it upon himself to punish Chu Li instead
”Zhao Ying, ignore this piece of garbage I just learned the Delusion Split yesterday, would you like to practice with me?”
”Zhuo Fei Yang!”
Zhao Ying furrowed her brows, thinking that the way Zhuo Fei Yang addressed Chu Li was incredibly rude
”Okay, okay, I won't call hilanced at Chu Li, ”Even though he really is one”
”Are you not done yet!?” Anges angrily widened her eyes

”It's all flowers and grass I'dfun wasting tis makes someone useless!”
”Ah, so according to you, Lady Siao Qi and Master Siao are doing pointless things, yes? And that is nothing co?” Chu Li chuckled The West Garden belongs to the eldest
Zhuo Fei Yang's face turned red really quickly as he began to s with Chu Li
”Zhuo Fei Yang! Chu Li!” Anges voices out in dissatisfaction
”Can't you guys just stop for a little? Chu Li, I'll go to the East Garden one day You can leave if you're busy”
Chu Li stared at Zhao Ying,”Sister, there are people out there who only seeood from the outside It takes ti of anyone you don't know!”
