“Senior Feng…” Zhao Xi greeted.

Feng Xue waved her hand and he stopped abruptly without uttering a single word.

Then, Feng Xue proceeded to stare at Chu Li. Gradually, she said, “Make your move.”

Chu Li walked out of the gazebo slowly as his heart felt a little heavy.

The Feng Fei Ninth Heaven Technique was also a unique martial art, similar to the Empyrean Fairy Power. No one would be able to analyze her inner energy as it was shrouded by a layer of invisible force.

Hence, he had one less trump card and one less advantage.

He slowly walked to the empty field in front of the arch and placed his hand by the sword. “Miss Feng, I usually attack with just a swing. But since Miss Feng is incredibly skilled, I’ll make an exception and swing my sword twice.”

“Two swings!” Feng Xue harrumphed.

Chu Li smiled gently. “Consider it my lost if I can’t defeat you within these two swings!”

“Fine.” Feng Xue said indifferently, “Attack me.”

Chu Li replied, “It’s best if Miss Feng attacks first, in case I win without any fight at all. I’m afraid you might not have the chance to fight back if I were to make the first move.”

“That’s a bold statement!” Feng Xue said plainly. “You may attack first.”

Chu Li nodded. “If that’s the case, I’m sorry for offending you!”

As soon as his voice dropped, his shoulder started to move instantly. The moment the sword flashed, the longsword had already appeared in front of Feng Xue’s forehead.

A crispy clear sound rang as Feng Xue turned into a shadow and the sword landed on what seemed to be her afterimage.

Chu Li put his sword away and fist saluted.

Feng Xue held onto her shoulder with her right hand while she stood 23.5 ft away. Her gaze was filled with shock.

Zhao Xi stared at the two of them with wide eyes before his attention fell onto Feng Xue’s shoulder.

The snow-white attire had been dyed blood red. Moreover, it was her blood — Senior Feng had been harmed!

Feng Xue lowered her head as she looked at the gaping wound on her left shoulder. The wound resembled that of a baby’s lips and the white bone could be vaguely seen. Fortunately, she was quite adept at controlling her body and the bleeding halted swiftly.

She raised her head to look at Chu Li. At that moment, her eyes were brimming with fire. “Great. Du Feng, you’re the only one who has been able to harm me!”

Chu Li smiled gently. “It’s my honor.”

“You indeed live up to your name!” Feng Xue said indifferently. “You’re indeed Du Feng. You live up to your name as the White Shroud Shendao.”

Chu Li asked, “Miss Feng, do we still need to continue this?”

“Of course!” Feng Xue said coldly, “I haven’t lost yet!”

Chu Li nodded. “Alright. I still have one swing left. If I can’t defeat you with my next attack, it will be your win!”

“Then, prepare to take my attack!” Feng Xue said coldly.

The instant she moved, her body turned into a shadow figure before she appeared behind Chu Li out of the blue. Her delicate palm was like a jade-white sculpture that was covered in a scorching red brilliance. It looked just like a white jade that had been covered with a layer of cochineal.

Chu Li stepped to the side as he evaded her attack. As she attacked again with her palms. Chu Li moved to a side to evade her attack.

It looked as if every step he took was incredibly relaxing. It was neither slow or quick, but it was just enough to evade Feng Xue’s jade-like palm. The Nature Restoration Manifestation was doing its job.

Zhao Xi widened his eyes. He kept his stare without blinking and soon, he found himself dizzy.

Feng Xue’s movement was simply so quick that he could not catch up with her movement at all. Unable to take it any longer, he decided to ignore Feng Xue’s movement and focused on Chu Li instead.

On the other hand, he observed that Chu Li was moving at an incredibly casual pace. His footwork was minimal and yet he could evade Feng Xue’s palm attacks miraculously.

“Be careful Miss Feng, I’m about to attack you,” Chu Li said slowly.

A clear sound reverberated as Feng Xue’s movement became even quicker.

All could be seen now was Chu Li circled by a white figure. However, no one could see Feng Xue clearly as she was everywhere at once.

Chu Li moved his hand and his sword flashed. Then, Feng Xue had unknowingly appeared 23.5 ft away again.

Her right hand hung loosely as another sword wound appeared on her right shoulder; her white robe had been stained by her blood again.

Chu Li had already sheathed his sword as he fist saluted. “Miss Feng, I’m sorry!”

Zhao Xi widened his eyes as he noticed Du Feng’s sudden change in vibe. His expression reflected his blinding personality so much that no one could dare to look at him directly in the eyes. Yet, he was as calm as water when he sheathed his sword and no one could tell how strong he exactly was.

Instead of feeling dejected or upset, Feng Xue’s eyes brimmed with excitement. “Very good, Du Feng. I’ll come and seek for you again!”

Chu Li nodded. “Anytime, but I’ll be isolating myself most of the time and the Snow Lunar Pavilion will never interrupt me no matter what. All you need to do is to tell them to send a message to me and I’ll come for you when I’m out from my Isolated Cultivation.”

“Good!” Feng Xue said. “Finally, there’s someone who could fight shoulder to shoulder with me. I will defeat you!”

Chu Li smiled. “I wish that’s the case. Goodbye.”

“Farewell!” Feng Xue scoffed as she disappeared in a blink of an eye.

As Chu Li watched her go back up the mountain, he slowly turned around and gave a fist salute to Zhao Xi. “Brother Zhao, I’ve to go.”

Although Zhao Xi regained consciousness, he was still in disbelief. “Brother Du, Brother Du, I can’t believe you defeated Senior Feng!”

Chu Li smiled gently. “It’s just a fluke. It’s nothing.”

Zhao Xi was in praise as he looked at Du Feng. “Brother Du, I’m sorry I looked down on you earlier. I thought no one could stand toe to toe against Senior Feng other than the Enlightened Masters. I didn’t expect your sword techniques to be this amazing!”

Chu Li laughed. “It’s just a fluke.”

The more he kept his manner, the more Zhao Xi respected him.

If it was really just a fluke, Senior Feng would not have willingly admitted defeat and would have continued the spar. While Senior Feng’s movements were so quick that no one could see her clearly and her attacks were unavoidable, Du Feng’s sword was even quicker. It was so quick that no one could see it at all. He could not fathom how Chu Li was able to swing his sword that quickly.

Chu Li fist saluted as he left Feng Huang Mountain. With calm and firm steps, he walked away.

Zhao XI stared at Chu Li disappearing into the distance. This was what a real man was!

While Chu Li walked away, he frowned as he recalled the fight earlier.

If it was not for the Nature Restoration Manifestation, he would not be a match against Feng Xue.

Her movement was simply too quick and she had an unusual inner energy as well. If it was not for the Single Slice of the Universe, he was certainly not a match against Feng Xue. He felt that he was really lucky to win against her and all that luck was because of the Single Slice of the Universe.

He was very intrigued by Feng Xue. There was something weird about her and he could not get a grasp on.

He laid down on a huge boulder on the Spirit Cranes Peak. As he bathed underneath the sunlight, he was so lazy that he did not feel like moving at all.

He pondered on how to store the blade energy elsewhere other than his Dantian. If he could find another place to store it and use it immediately when needed, he would not need to perform the thirty-six energy-nurturing forms again.

Unfortunately, this thought could not come to fruition. After all, Dantian was called Dantian for the reason that it was different from the other acupoints. The other acupoints were merely a channel to communicate with the heavens and earth. Unlike the Dantian, it would be very difficult to store the blade energy there.

“Whoosh whoosh” He heard two sound pierced through the air. When he tilted his head, he saw four strange flying snakes flying towards him like an arrow.

He swung his hands one after another as four flying blades were shot at the flying snakes’ vital points.

These four flying snakes were unusually quick, completely ignoring Chu Li’s flying blades.

“Ding ding ding ding.” The four flying blades felt like they had hit against metals as they came in contact with the flying snakes. The snakes were only delayed for a brief moment before they continued to charge towards Chu Li when they fell to the ground.

At that moment, he was the only one present in Spirit Cranes Peak and the four Spirit Cranes had left.
