Chapter 835: Blood Core

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Bang!” Chu Li hit the man with his palm and immediately felt a strange force surge into the center of his palm. Instantly, the blood in his entire body began to rush toward his palm as if there was a hole in his palm.

“Be careful!” Yue Ru screamed in fear.

“Boom…” A Buddha and a Heavenly Demon suddenly appeared in the void of his mind. Then, as they chanted the Great Light Scripture, Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture, and the Heavenly Demon Scripture simultaneously, numerous lotuses fell upon their bodies. In an instant, he could feel his boiling blood calm down.

Following that, a different form of inner energy flowed out through Chu Li’s palm and surged toward Sun Shiting’s precordium.

A red glow suddenly circulated all over Sun Shiting’s body and formed a special armor to prevent Chu Li’s inner energy from entering his body.

Chu Li scoffed as he balled his hand into a fist. At once, the fist force of his Divine Light Fist poured out and turned into a blazing flame. The red glowing armor could not stop this scorching ball of flame, which eventually bore a hole through the armor before it entered into Sun Shiting’s body and collided with his heart.

Sun Shiting’s body trembled and he sprayed out a mouthful of blood. He then glared furiously at Chu Li.

Instead, Chu Li frowned at him and landed a punch on his chest as he planned to do the same thing to the man’s lungs. As expected, the force from his Divine Light Fist broke through the armor once again and damaged his lungs. Then, Chu Li threw out three more Divine Light Fists before he destroyed the rest of the man’s vital organs.

Blood spilled out of Sun Shiting’s mouth every time he got hit, but still, he did not die.

Chu Li turned to look at Yue Ru. “How am I supposed to kill him?”

“There’s something called a blood core inside his blood. It’s like a Dantian for him. You’ll be able to kill him by destroying his blood core,” Yue Ru quickly replied.

Chu Li nodded.

He swept his gaze over to Sun Shiting and immediately found where his blood core was. It was located inches over his Dantian. With that, he landed a punch on that spot and the fist force from his Divine Light Fist poured out again.

However, his fist force was met with great resistance this time and could hardly enter into the man’s body. So, he struck the spot where the blood core was located three times in a row. As these three bouts of fist force merged together, he managed to produce a more destructive force that entered into Sun Shiting’s body.

“Puff!” Sun Shiting’s eyes widened as he stared at Chu Li in disbelief.

Within an instant, his flushed face turned chalky white while the red glow in his eyes faded. His gaze became blank and cold as he fixed his eyes on Chu Li.

Chu Li nodded his head when he saw that he had indeed delivered a fatal blow this time.

Suddenly, Sun Shiting grinned and he let out a laugh. “My brothers from the Church of the Bloody Garment will avenge my death. They won’t rest until they kill you off. You’re a dead man!”

Chu Li retorted, “Sure, even if I’m a dead man, you’ll be the first to die!”

Then, all of a sudden, Sun Shiting’s body went limp before he breathed his last breath.

His body began to shrink rapidly until it was reduced to a dry corpse.

Chu Li shook his head and muttered, “It does seem pretty scary.”

Yue Ru said, “The Church of the Bloody Garment is a cult after all.”

“How many disciples does the Church of the Bloody Garment have?” Chu Li asked.

Yue Ru knitted her eyebrows together and replied, “According to Master, they might have more than twenty disciples, and ten of them will be coming to Gale City to deal with Phoenix Goddess Brothel.”

“The Phoenix Goddess Brothel…” Chu Li shook his head and said, “If these ten disciples are as powerful as him, the Phoenix Goddess Brothel may not be able to defeat them.”

“They’re determined to destroy Phoenix Goddess Brothel,” Yue Ru replied. “Back then, it was the Phoenix Goddess Brothel that had fought them and consequently, they were destroyed by them. Our sect was so furious that they sent over many martial arts masters to wipe them out. But never did we expect that this cult could be revived.”

Chu Li said, “Now that they’ve been revived, they’re still seeking to destroy the Phoenix Goddess Brothel. What are they trying to achieve with this? Are they intending to let history repeat itself?”

“Master said that they’re looking to pick up where they’ve left off. Moreover, their grudge toward the Phoenix Goddess Brothel has been etched in their hearts, so nothing will stop them from trying to destroy us,” Yue Ru replied with a frown.

“They must be a stubborn bunch then.” Chu Li shook his head and laughed. “They should be more careful after their revival and yet they insist on starting this huge conflict with Tian Luo Sect. Aren’t they seeking their own death by doing so? Are they really that stupid?”

“They’re far more impulsive than ordinary people, so they usually handle things in a more extreme manner. They’ll strive to prove themselves better than others,” Yue Ru said. “That’s why they’ll definitely continue to harass Tian Luo Sect.”

Chu Li nodded. “In that case, I will stay at the Phoenix Goddess Brothel for some time and carry out my isolated cultivation there instead.”

“But…” Yue Ru hesitated.

She felt that this was a bad idea. The disciples from the Church of the Bloody Garment were very outrageous. If he were to get involved in this, it might lead to a disastrous outcome. If Radiance Clan got dragged into this situation too, she would be a huge sinner.

Chu Li chuckled and suggested, “I can intervene in secret.”

“I don’t wish to cause you too much trouble, Young Master Zhao,” Yue Ru replied with uncertainty.

Indeed, it seemed like a good strategy to let him intervene in secret. He could just find a way to save the lives of their disciples at the Phoenix Goddess Brothel during the crucial moments without showing his face. If the disciples at the Phoenix Goddess Brothel were to defend the place all by themselves, they would not be capable of warding off ten disciples from the Church of the Bloody Garment.

Chu Li said, “You don’t have to be so courteous. Just go back first. I’ll head over there tonight!”

Yue Ru nodded.

After that, Chu Li turned around and glided away.

In any case, he still had to repay their kindness someday, and this was the perfect time to do so.

As for whether or not the Church of the Bloody Garment would seek him out for revenge, he was not afraid of that. If Radiance Clan were to be dragged into this mess, he would like to see how capable Radiance Clan was of defending themselves. If they could not even defend themselves, they would never survive in the martial arts world anyway.

In the early evening, when the lanterns were first lit, the moon was already hanging high up in the night sky.

Phoenix Goddess Brothel was brilliantly illuminated. It was as lively as usual while silk and bamboo music echoed endlessly from within the building.

Yue Ru was dressed in a light pink gown as she gracefully walked toward a room on the second floor. As soon as she opened the door and looked inside, a sweet smile appeared on her face. “Young Master Lu, haven’t you gone into isolated cultivation?”

“I’ve completed my isolated cultivation.” Lu Xiaofeng stood up and held up a fist salute while he gave her a charming smile. “I came over to see you right after my isolated cultivation, Miss Yue Ru.”

Yue Ru chuckled and asked, “You’ve completed it so soon?”

“The moment I achieve my goal, I can come out of isolated cultivation,” Lu Xiaofeng replied with a smile. “Fortunately, I’ve managed to achieve rapid advancement in my cultivation and this is all thanks to you, Miss Yue Ru.”

Yue Ru looked surprised as she smiled and asked, “Because of me?”

Lu Xiaofeng replied, “I was anxious to see you again, so I wanted to complete my isolated cultivation as soon as possible. That’s why I exerted everything I had during my cultivation. With that, I was struck by divine inspiration and improved very quickly. I finally managed to advance to the next level in my cultivation!”

Yue Ru pursed her lips into a smile. “Well then, I suppose I should claim credit for this.”

Lu Xiaofeng politely invited her to take a seat. After observing her for a while, he sensed that something was worrying her and that she was pretending to look happy. So, he asked, “Miss Yue Ru, have you encountered any problem recently?”

Yue Ru shook her head and replied, “It’s nothing.”

“You can share it with me. Even if I can’t help you solve it, I can still help you come up with ideas to overcome it, right?” Lu Xiaofeng said. “But of course, if it involves classified information about your sect, then it would be better for you not to tell me.”

Yue Ru shook her head and replied, “It doesn’t involve any classified information. Actually, it’s about the Church of the Bloody Garment.”

“The Church of the Bloody Garment?” Lu Xiaofeng’s expression changed slightly.

Yue Ru asked, “Has Young Master Lu heard about them too?”

Lu Xiaofeng nodded. “I’ve just completed my isolated cultivation when I heard Master mentioning them. He said that this group of people has appeared again and that the Church of the Bloody Garment has been re-established.”

Yue Ru nodded. “To be honest, they’ve already arrived at Gale City.”

“So soon?” Lu Xiaofeng frowned. “Have they come to seek revenge against the Phoenix Goddess Brothel?”

Yue Ru nodded with a grave look on her face.

Lu Xiaofeng let out a sigh. “This is going to be a tricky situation then. The Church of the Bloody Garment’s martial arts is so strange and hard to deal with. Have you come up with a plan to defeat them?”

Yue Ru shook her head.

Lu Xiaofeng suggested, “In that case, you guys should probably take a step back and hide yourselves for now.”

“You mean we should close down the Phoenix Goddess Brothel and go back to Tian Luo Sect?” Yue Ru frowned.

Lu Xiaofeng nodded. “That’s the only thing you can do right now. Otherwise, is Phoenix Goddess Brothel capable of fending off the Church of the Bloody Garment?”

“My master is planning to invite other martial arts masters to come and join us in resisting the Church of the Bloody Garment.” Yue Ru’s bright eyes stared at him intently.

“Oh…” Lu Xiaofeng seemed surprised to hear this. Then, he slowly nodded. “That’s a good idea too.”

Yue Ru continued to stare at him.

Lu Xiaofeng sighed helplessly and said, “Miss Yue Ru, I’m afraid I won’t be able to help you with that.”
