Chapter 960: Name List

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chu Li saw Xiao Shi and Xiao Qi playing chess in the Tianshu Courtyard. The courtyard was brightly illuminated, making it seem like it was still daytime. The two young women’s faces resembled two pieces of white jade under the light. Xiao Shi and Xiao Qi looked incomparably gorgeous and magnificent. It was impossible for other people to tear their eyes away from the pair of women.

Chu Li did not disturb them. He returned to Gale City in a flash before he sat inside his house and underwent self-cultivation.

Chu Li was wondering how to obtain the White Tiger Power.

The White Tiger Art was merely the foundation of the White Tiger Power. Chu Li would need to learn the White Tiger Art before he could cultivate the White Tiger Power. The White Tiger Sect failed to develop the White Tiger Power into an impressive force. The White Tiger Power seemed different from the Great Light Scripture, but it was definitely not weak. Rather, it was not suitable to cultivate this technique anymore because the spiritual energy from Heaven and Earth was too faint.

However, Chu Li could become an Enlightened Master if he cultivated this technique on Spirit Cranes Peak and used the Crouching Bull Insight as a reference in order to cultivate it perfectly.

This method seemed easy, but it was actually unimaginably tricky. It was several times more difficult than becoming the youth champion.

Chu Li could suppress Fa Yuan, Lu Yurong, and that person from Feng Huang Mountain with his current cultivation level. There was a glimmer of hope for Chu Li. After all, the Titanium Temple would not be competing against him seeing as they were detached from worldly affairs.

The Tempest Temple had a lot of insider information. It was possible that Fa Yuan’s skills would improve rapidly, so much so that he would unexpectedly overpower Chu Li. Furthermore, Chu Li was uncertain about the exact details surrounding Green Deer Cliff. Lu Yurong’s skills could improve at any time as well.

It would be difficult for Chu Li to suppress the others and become the strongest individual. Nonetheless, it was much easier than perfectly cultivating the Crouching Bull Insight.

Unfortunately, Chu Li could only suppress his opponents instead of defeating them completely. It was nearly impossible to go against the divine will. There were also numerous factors that hindered him. Regardless, Chu Li would rather reach the level of an Enlightened Master and become one of them.

Chu Li planned to cultivate the White Tiger Power first.

“Messenger!” Chu Li loudly yelled.

A young female servant named Xiao Jie answered in a crisp voice, “Yes, young master?”

“Tell Kou Qiong to come here.”

“Yes.”

Kou Qiong stood outside and gingerly knocked on the door several moments after Xiao Jie left. “Young master?”

“Come inside and speak to me,” Chu Li said.

Kou Qiong pushed the door open before he approached Chu Li’s bed. Kou Qiong made a fist salute and bowed. “Young master, what are your instructions?”

“What’s the current situation in the Roaring Tiger Clan?” Chu Li asked, “Are any of the White Tiger Sect’s disciples still there?”

“Young master, the White Tiger Sect’s original disciples in the Roaring Tiger Clan went away after you left. However, another young disciple has arrived.” Kou Qiong said, “It’s rumored that he’s one of the White Tiger Sect’s geniuses. He’s young, but his cultivation level is profound.”

“I see, very good.” Chu Li smiled. “Where does he live?”

“He’s been living in the Roaring Tiger Clan all along.” Kou Qiong said, “Young master, do you want to get rid of him?”

Chu Li shook his head. “Don’t go and provoke him for now... Find me a house near the White Tiger Clan that’s less than one mile away. The nearer, the better!”

As Chu Li wanted to read his opponent’s thoughts, the distance between them would determine how much of his consciousness he would need to use. Chu Li would need to exert a lot of his consciousness to clearly read his opponent’s mind if they were far away. On the contrary, Chu Li would need to use less of his consciousness to read his opponent’s mind if they were nearby.

Kou Qiong hurriedly nodded. “I’ll go and make the preparations. I’ll get the house for you as soon as possible, young master!”

“Go then, and make sure that you keep this a secret,” Chu Li said.

“Yes, I understand,” Kou Qiong smiled and said.

Chu Li gestured with his hand. “I’m going over there to undergo isolated cultivation.”

“I’ll get it done by tomorrow,” Kou Qiong said.

Chu Li happily nodded. Kou Qiong left when Chu Li waved his hand.

Kou Qiong wondered why Chu Li wanted a house that was near the Roaring Tiger Clan. Kou Qiong also did not understand why Chu Li wanted to go there to undergo isolated cultivation. However, he did not ask too many questions. Kou Qiong knew that he only needed to complete his task properly once he was given the instructions. Nothing good would arise from asking unnecessary questions.

Chu Li was very pleased with Kou Qiong and the other two people. They were experienced veterans who were completely honest now. Furthermore, they would not ask unnecessary questions. Chu Li did not have to waste his efforts explaining things to them because they were fast learners who learned from their previous experiences. Occasionally, those men were even more meticulous than Chu Li when they completed their tasks.

On the next day, Kou Qiong had already waited outside Chu Li’s door for a long time before Chu Li finally woke up in the morning. Kou Qiong made and fist salute and beamed when Chu Li loudly summoned him to come inside. “Young master, I’ve found a house for you.”

“Did you forcibly kick the residents out of their own home?” Chu Li asked.

“Of course not!” Kou Qiong hurriedly said, “We would never do something like that. I managed to solve the problem with one thousand taels worth of banknotes. The owner of the house happily left without bringing anything with him. One thousand taels would be enough for his family to live their entire lives as they pleased.”

“Good.” Chu Li nodded. “I’ll move in tonight. Meanwhile, I have to go out during the day to run some errands.”

“I’ll find some people to properly tidy up the house during the day,” Kou Qiong hurriedly said.

Chu Li nodded. “Be careful not to be discovered by the members of the Roaring Tiger Clan.”

“Of course.” Kou Qiong frantically nodded before he smiled and said, “Young master, would you like some breakfast?”

“Just serve it to me,” Chu Li replied.

Kou Qiong waved his hand. The beautiful female servant Xiao Jie who was outside the room then briefly instructed several other servants to serve Chu Li’s breakfast.

These young female servants had graceful figures and charming faces. It was obvious that he had spent some time and effort to meticulously handpick them.

Chu Li’s gaze briefly scanned across them before he shook his head and smiled.

This was one of the perks of being powerful. It would be impossible for him to be surrounded by so many gorgeous women if he was not an influential person. These girls could cheer Chu Li up even if he did not lay a finger on them.

A tempting aroma wafted from Chu Li’s breakfast once the sumptuous spread was laid on the table.

Chu Li ate while the servants watched him. He left once he had finished his breakfast; he hurriedly disappeared from Gale City before he appeared next to Xu Huande.

Xu Huande was inside an extremely spacious courtyard. There was a hall, study, and bedroom here. Xu Huande was sitting on the bed while he channeled his energy to heal his wounds. Although he had Spirit Medicine, Xu Huande still needed to work hard and heal his wounds if he wanted them to be healed completely.

Chu Li knew that Xu Huande had not eaten anything when he observed his current state. Chu Li called Xiao Er, the servant who had been waiting at the stairway all along, to hurry up and serve Xu Huande his breakfast.

Xu Huande was tempted by the aroma. He got down from his bed to eat while Chu Li took a book and read it beside him.

Once Xu Huande had finished his breakfast, the two men bought two horses and rode them out of the town. They continued traveling toward the Imperial Mausoleum.

They were more than ten miles away from the town when Xu Huande suddenly retrieved several folded letters from his bosom. He passed them to Chu Li and said, “Here, take these and read them.”

Chu Li took the letters and smiled. “These letters are definitely precious if they’re from you, Commander Xu.”

Xu Huande smiled and said, “Yes, they’re extremely precious.”

Chu Li opened the letters and read through every single one. There were ten letters in total. Chu Li raised his head and cried out in shock, saying, “This...”

“I might not return to Fairy’s Capital for the rest of my life. I was going to take this name list with me to the grave.” Xu Huande said, “If you use these people wisely, your forces will be unimaginably powerful. I believe that you’ll use them well.”

There was a serious look on Chu Li’s face before he slowly nodded. “Thank you very much, Commander Xu.”

“I’m not a commander anymore.” Xu Huande shook his head before he said, “It might be impossible for me to become a commander again for the rest of my life.”

“Why didn’t you give this to Commander Fu?” Chu Li rubbed his hands, and the ten letters instantly turned into dust that flew away in the wind. The letters would never be seen again because they had fully vanished from this world.

When Xu Huande saw that, he smiled at Chu Li and whispered, “I don’t trust him.”

Chu Li sighed. “I don’t trust Commander Fu either.”

Chu Li did not have any tender regard for Fu Mengshan because the latter only cared about benefiting himself. If there were great rewards in store, Fu Mengshan would stab Chu Li in the back without even batting an eyelid.

Fu Mengshan and Xu Huande were exact opposites. Xu Huande was a kind-hearted person despite his strict appearance while Fu Mengshan was a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

“Do you trust me, Commander Xu?”

“Yes, you’re a credible person.” Xu Huande faintly smiled. “Those people will be safer in your hands.”

“Don’t worry, Commander Xu. I’m definitely not going to mess this up!” Chu Li lowered his voice and said.
