She quickly cleared her juhts, and concentrated on her swordplay instead She tried to strike whenever chances presented itself Every moment she stayed still counted as a victory
”Brother! You go ahead!” Zhao Ying shouted
Chu Li sighed He drew his sword from its scabbard, and pushed himself into the air He rushed down fro for its prey, with his sword flashi+ng like a strike of lightning
”Ahahahah!” A chain of screa immediately felt a sudden release of stress as she quickly turned and saw Chu Li striking fro, every spark brought someone down
In a split second, she had not even round, except for both Chu Li and Zhao Ying, who re
”Brother”
Zhao Ying was startled
Chu Li stabled himself with the sword once more, and looked an even deadlier shade of pale
”Let's go, let's not stay here for too long”
”Got it!” Zhao Ying nodded
She needed not for Chu Li's reminder this time around She held her sword and stabbed the people on the floor, one by one She supported Chu Li up his horse and the both of theers
As they left the vicinity of the Raging Tigers, Zhao Ying let out a deep breath She turned towards Chu Li, as not getting any better
”Chu Li, let's look for a place to rest We're now out of their territory We need not fear any more attempts of robbery”
”We'll have to go a little further, they ht catch up”
”Can you make it ?”
”Not a problem”Chu Li smiled
Zhao Ying shook her head, this was not norue He was definitely hurt, he probably used a secret technique that sti from the aftermath! Especially that last round, he definitely used the secret technique again, and he was really feeling the consequences of it
She blamed herself for it She was incompetent Her skills in ht as a Protector, and even became a burden, such a humiliation!
Chu Li smiled
”Zhao Ying, don't bla in martial arts, what you can do now is to simply cultivate well”
”H lowered her head
”You haven't even grasped the true ht as well observe and analyze a s, or sohtened by the experience”
Chu Li said
”Right!” Zhao Ying lifted her head and wore an excited expression ”I should observe a s!”
Chu Li smiled
”There will be chances to do so”
Two of the time, and travelled on for many miles They finally decided to rest beneath a tree
It was already late evening Zhao Ying hopped onto a tree to scouted the area She shook her head ”Brother Chu Li, we ht”
”I'm not that noble”
Chu Li smiled
He crossed his legs and sat atop of a thick bunch of dried leaves Countless inner strength flowed into hihted land finally tasting sweet rain, and immediately revitalized
As he was revitalizing hisTechnique, and sped up the process
Zhao Ying looked at Chu Li's facial complexion
Chu Li smiled
”I'm really okay, I just have to meditate for a bit”
”It's all my fault…”
Zhao Ying softly mumbled
”Zhao Ying, there is no point in thinking like that If anyone were to be bla too weak”
Chu Li replied
Zhao Ying shook her head
Chu Li smiled
”Zhao Ying, do you kno to cook?”
”Of course!”
”Then make us a nice meal!”
”Roger!” Zhao Ying nodded
”You only have energy to heal yourself when you're full!”
She turned around and gathered so is proficient in mushrooms, she knew that most mushrooms in the as not edible, and any mistakes will lead to deadly poison Most of the mushrooms outside however, were nice and fresh
She used tied etables and mushrooms and put them to cook in a pot She boiled theood
Chu Li war it She had boiled the porridge with just the right heat control The porridge was especially delicious if it had been consumed while tired
The ht was as clear as the water, and Chu Li was quietlyto his long and deep breaths She felt very safe and calm
She took a few peeks at Chu Li as she noticed that Chu Li was heavily immersed inan indescribable aura of prestige and vigor
She quickly closed her eyes, afraid that Chu Li would notice A sudden thought of the humiliation from daytime came into her mind She immediately held her chin up and decided to dedicate herself in cultivation With the channeling of her inner energy, her meridian was stabilized It cycled her whole body over and over She could usually do only ten cycles, but she had done twenty today!
If that was the case, her cultivating speed had doubled! This was incredibly surprising!
Her ht that it would be like this The medicine's only completely diffused now, and revealed its benefits
She took another peek at Chu Li before she decided to lie down and sleep
The next , she woke up and looked around for Chu Li She could not find him and quickly hopped onto the tree The two horses were still there, but she could not find a trace of Chu Li Right as she was about to call for hi onto two alpine musk deers, and walked out from the woods
”Brother Chu Li!” She quickly called out
Chu Li held up the two deer and smiled
”We're going to have a good meal!”
