Chapter 975: Guarding The Imperial Mausoleum

He pushed away the miscellaneous thoughts as he recalled what happened earlier.

Although he and King Ping were struggling, the Omniscient Mirror had recorded everything into his memory. Since he recalled what happened earlier, he was able to witness what happened to the four hidden masters. Furthermore, he was able to see the fight between the Eight Great Protectors and their enemies.

The Eight Great Protectors were top-notch masters from the military. While their cultivation levels were very high, they were still no match for the hidden masters from the Holy Church of Light. After all, someone who had trained for forty to fifty years was not strong enough to face someone who had trained for a hundred years.

One’s skills would change if one had trained for a hundred years. They would become more powerful and he had experienced this before.

Chu Li had a variety of divine powers and he was able to defend himself against a master who had trained for a hundred years. He could have pulled King Ping and retreated and did not have to face this trouble if he were to expose the Limb of God in front of everyone else.

There were many items that could counter divine powers in this world. He would not be able to use it as a trump card if the enemies had anticipated it. Hence, Chu Li had been using the Life and Death Scripture as insurance and if possible, he would avoid using the Limb of God as much as he could.

These hidden masters did not just have an incredibly high cultivation level, their swordsmanship was off the charts as well. They were incredibly delicate and had very few flaws. One could tell just how powerful their swordsmanship was since they were able to block his Light Blade.

However, that figure was the one that he was most concerned with.

Did that guy not have the power of the Enlightened Masters?

The light he emitted was extremely blinding, so much so that no one could look at him directly. Even his Omniscient Mirror could not even clearly see his face and all he could see was his figure.

The overwhelming presence made it impossible to breathe. It was as if Chu Li was a little ant being stared down by a mountain. He did not have the power to defend himself at all and all he could do was to be killed however the enemy wished.

The Enlightened Master’s presence was incredibly solid, that it had the power to kill. He did not even need to make a move at all. All he needed was to stand there and his presence alone was able to pressure the others into a mental breakdown, frightening them into oblivion.

Since Chu Li’s spiritual force was incredibly strong, he was able to stay awake as usual. However, it was clear that the hidden masters were not able to go against such strong oppression.

The overwhelming oppression forced the opponent to have a delayed reaction, decision making and generating inner energy. All they could do was to watch themselves being attacked without having the energy to evade at all. It was incredibly frightening.

Chu Li admitted that he was no match for this guy. The Limb of God would be useless against him. He would still be no match against him even if he was slightly stronger than those twelve hidden masters. All he could do was to watch himself being attacked and spread apart.

He was unsure if the Life and Death Scripture could resurrect him but it was most likely not possible. He was certain that he would be dead for good. It seemed that this Enlightened Master was someone that must not be messed with!

He sighed as he shook his head.

The next morning, Chu Li sat down as he healed his injury.

His current body was both the Divine Light Body and the Body of Heavenly Demon. The attainment level for his Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture was still low and he had yet to be able to learn the Earth Matrix Buddha’s Body. However, he was already incredibly strong. In just a night, the injury that had pierced through his chest was already covered in a thin layer of membrane as his muscles started growing.

“Chu Li, you’ve received an imperial edict!” A loud scream rivaled to the bronze bell sounded from King An’s Imperial Residence.

Chu Li frowned. It was bound to happen!

He guessed that the Emperor would not kill him to keep his mouth shut because he had already seen King Ping. It was too late for that. However, he knew that what he did was right and he would be at most punished.

He did not expect the Emperor to send him an imperial edict.

“Chu Li, accept the imperial edict!” A powerful voice sounded once again.

Chu Li immediately replied, “Chu Li has accepted the imperial edict!”

He glided out of the little courtyard and arrived at the entrance.

King An’s Imperial Residence’s pitch black door was already open as the brass nail shone brightly.

There were two middle-aged men in black formal attire standing at the staircase of the entrance. Each of them had a golden scroll in their hands, the imperial edict. Their gaze was calm and stern as they guarded the entrance quietly.

Chu Li strode to the entrance. He fist saluted and greeted them as he reached the staircase. “Chu Li is here upon the imperial edict!”

Hasty footsteps could be heard from the back just as he finished talking.

Xiao Shi was in a moon-white robe, which had a golden chrysanthemum embroidered on the cuff. The entire outfit looked elegant and luxurious.

Her beautiful face was covered by a white veil and her watery eyes which resembled a deep pond were revealed. She was able to attract every soul by just giving a slight glance.

She was accompanied by Yang Xu, Menglan and the other maids. She was incredibly weak and could be swept away by the wind as she walked outside.

Liu Xing and eight other Protectors were on high alert around her as they looked around cautiously. It was as if they were ready to pounce at any given moment. The Imperial Residence’s guards became wary along with Liu Xing and the rest.

“What’s wrong?” She walked towards Chu Li.

Chu Li shook his head.

The Imperial House’s Protectors in black formal attire walked forward as he opened the imperial edict. “King An’s Imperial Residence Chief, Secret Guardians Hall’s centurion, Rank-One Scribe Chu Li. You’ve deceived your superiors and disappointed the Emperor. You’re hereby to leave the city in five days and report to Imperial Mausoleum within ten days as the Imperial Mausoleum’s guard.”

These words were announced via his inner energy. His voice reverberated throughout the sky like a bronze bell. It was not just audible within King An’s Imperial Residence, anyone within a few square miles could hear him clearly, so much so that half of the Fairy’s Capital could hear him.

Chu Li smiled wryly as he reached out his hand. “Well received!”

Xiao Shi’s gaze turned cold as she looked at the two Imperial House’s Protectors.

The two fist saluted awkwardly. “Consort, we’re only following orders. This is an order from the Emperor and His Highness wanted us to inform the entire city.”

“Hmpf, His Highness sure made it interesting!” Xiao Shi harrumphed. “It’s just a punishment order and he’s afraid that no one knows about it.”

The two fist saluted and left hurriedly. They did not even ask for any compensation.

Chu Li looked at the imperial edict as he laughed while he shook his head.

The Emperor had spared him by punishing him which was to guard the Imperial Mausoleum. His outcome was the same as Xu Huande. Now, the two could accompany each other. Since Xu Huande was no longer a threat, he would ultimately be sent back to Secret Guardians Hall.

The outcome was for the best. As soon as the imperial edict was given, it was the same as the Emperor announced that His Highness would not seek trouble with him. However, High Highness had no more plans to use him at all as well. All he needed to do was to move to the sideline obediently and stay away from the Fairy’s Capital.

Xiao Shi turned her head around. “Chu Li, what’s the matter? Why did this pop up out of the blue? How did you offend the Emperor?”

Chu Li replied, “I’ll explain everything inside.”

Xiao Shi glanced at the people around her as she waved her elegant hand before she entered Tianshu Courtyard with Chu Li.

Xiao Shi was at Tianshu Courtyard almost every night. She would not come here during the daytime as she would be training at the house beside the King’s Imperial Residence.

Xiao Shi ordered everyone to leave as she wanted to speak to Chu Li alone.

“Is it because you’ve told King Ping that stuff?” Xiao Shi frowned as she asked. Her beautiful, shining eyes were staring at him the entire time. “That can’t be right. King Ping wouldn’t tell him anything and it shouldn’t be this fast either if he did.”

She did not know that Chu Li was injured last night. After all, Chu Li went back to his little courtyard immediately that night and no one could tell that he had been injured.

Chu Li then told her what happened that night.

Xiao Shi was furious. “His Highness is cruel. You’ve saved King Ping. No matter how you look at it, he should be rewarding you instead of ordering you to guard the Imperial Mausoleum. He should forget about the past. How infuriating!”

Chu Li said, “I’ve got the Limb of God. It doesn’t matter if I go to the Imperial Mausoleum.”

“That’s true.” Xiao Shi nodded softly.

Since Chu Li had the Limb of God, he was able to return home when it was night time no matter where he was. It did not matter much if he was not at the Fairy’s Capital or not.

“It’s infuriating that he had purposely announced the imperial edict so loudly!” Xiao Shi scoffed.

Chu Li sighed. “This is the best outcome we could ask for. If I didn’t save King Ping, the Emperor would have sent an assassin to execute me!”

“That’s true! However, you can finally be at peace. You don’t need to care about the ongoings of the Secret Guardians Hall anymore.” Xiao Shi harrumphed. “In my opinion, you don’t even need to care about the spy incident in the Holy Church of Light as well. All you need to do is to train your martial arts peacefully.”

Chu Li laughed. “It’s indeed unfortunate to give up just like that.”

“You’re a workaholic!” Xiao Shi scoffed. “Alright, go be the Imperial Mausoleum’s guard. Go there and relax for a while. Who knows, they might send you back in a very short time.”

“I don’t think it’ll be any time soon.” Chu Li shook his head. “He believes that I’m dishonest and won’t utilize me because of this. I’ll have to be wary inside the residence in case I’m being set up by someone!”

“I’ll let Young Sister keep staying here.” Xiao Shi said.

Chu Li nodded.

As he lost his authority, assassination attempts towards Xiao Shi would naturally rise as they would never let go of such a good opportunity.

“When do you plan to move?”

“I’m not in a rush. Perhaps on the fifth day.”

“I’ve been in the Fairy’s Capital for a long time now and have yet to go out and play. Why don’t you accompany me and Younger Sister for the next few days?” Xiao Shi asked.

Chu Li could return any time he wanted but he could not reveal himself and he could only appear within the Imperial Residence. There would be very few opportunities to experience urban life in Fairy’s Capital. Hence, she decided to take him out to eat some good food and drink good liquor.

“Alright!” Chu Li nodded.
