Chu Li went to the residence in the town. All the girls were in and they saw him approaching, each gave him a surprised look.

Zhao Ying was glaring at him bitterly.

Chu Li smiled at the girls. They all had their own interests, they did not idle around. Some embroidered, some trimmed the flowers, some were cultivating, some tailored clothes and some were reading. The whole residence was lively.

Zhao Ying was dressed in a green robe. With light footsteps, she came to welcome him. “Brother!”

Chu Li smiled. “Sister, you have worked hard. How are you recently?”

“This time you won’t leave anymore?” Zhao Ying scoffed.

“I can rest for a while.” Chu Li smiled. “What is the matter with the Phoenix Tree Faction?”

Zhao Ying’s face suddenly turned dark. She scoffed, “Do not mention them! … Playboys! Scums!”

Chu Li laughed. “Need me to teach them a lesson?”

Zhao Ying tightened her lips together, she thought for a while and nodded. “It’s good to teach them a lesson too. These people are very bad, they are all scoundrels, and the Phoenix Tree Faction is not any better!”

Zhao Ying got angry when she thought of the situation at the time.

These scoundrels wanted all the women in the Leisure Cloud Pub to fool around with them if not, they would come around every day and cause trouble. This was to ensure that the Leisure Cloud Pub could not do carry out their business regularly and when the girls did not have the money to buy their meals anymore, they would seek them on their own.

Listening to these obscene words, Zhao Ying could not bear it anymore and in a fit of anger, she broke their legs.

Thinking about it afterward, she felt that her heart was too soft. Towards these villains and bastards, she should have just dispelled their martial arts so that they could no longer commit any evil!

“Leave it to me,” said Chu Li.

“Brother, did everything go well?” Zhao Ying said, “You shouldn’t have left the Public House!”

She was aware that both the Tempest Temple and the Ren Public House wanted to kill him.

“Yes.” Chu Li promised with a smile and waved his hand at Chen Ying who was trimming the flowers.

Chen Ying was dressed in a white gown, her slender and bright eyes were lovely. She pointed at herself and Chu Li nodded.

Chen Ying put down the scissors and walked towards him, looking at him curiously.

“Sister Zhao Ying, you and Chen Ying follow me,” said Chu Li.

He took the girls into a quiet room.

This quiet room was used for his cultivation. The arrangement of this room was extremely simple, with just a bed, a table and a painting of the character “Quiet” that was hung on the wall. There was nothing else.

“Brother, what is it?” asked Zhao Ying.

Chu Li hesitated. “I learned an acupuncture technique that can build one’s foundation, but there is a risk.”

“How long do you need to build a foundation?”

“One night.”

“Really? What acupuncture technique is that?

“Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique,” Chu Li smiled. “You must not have heard about it. I learned it from Senior Guo Mulin.”

“Oh, it’s High Official Guo Mulin… ” Zhao Ying said in a sudden realization.

Guo Mulin had a transcendent standing in the Public House. His medical skill was outstanding and he was responsible for conditioning the Second Lady’s body.

Chu Li looked at Chen Ying who remained silent. “Chen Ying, Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique can allow you to build a foundation overnight, but it has a high risk and you might die from it. You need to think carefully.”

Chen Ying said without hesitation, “Young master, I want to try it!”

Chu Li sighed and nodded.

He was well aware of the girls’ thoughts, they hated their weakness the most. As long as there was a slight opportunity to become stronger, they would grasp it immediately, even if they had to put their lives on the line.

“Sit down on the bed.” Chu Li said. “I will first transfer something to you. Remember that you cannot teach it to others!”

“Yes.” Chen Ying took off her boots and sat down on the bed cross-legged with her back straight.

Chu Li turned his head to glance at Zhao Ying.

Zhao Ying quickly said, “I understand, I will be quiet.”

Chu Li gave a satisfactory nod and took out a box. There was a total of three layers, and they each held wooden, silver, and gold needles.

Zhao Ying stared curiously at it with widened eyes, unblinking.

Chu Li lifted his right palm and placed it onto Chen Ying’s Baihui acupuncture point and lingered there motionlessly.

Chen Ying slowly closed her eyes as if she had gone asleep.

Zhao Ying looked at Chu Li dubiously, she did not understand what he was doing. She saw Chen Ying’s eyelids tremble rapidly and this made her even more curious.

Soon, Chu Li released his hand and said, “Keep visualizing, don’t become distracted.”

Both his hands picked up a wooden needle each and jabbed them into Chen Ying’s body quickly, followed by another two needles. He stuck 109 needles into Chen Ying in one breath and Chen Ying appeared like a hedgehog.

Zhao Ying’s eyes widened even more. Chen Ying remained calm as if she sensed nothing but Zhao Ying felt pins and needles when she watched her.

All of a sudden, a gust of wind formed in the room and the gentle breeze continuously blew onto their cheeks.

Zhao Ying looked to her left and right in puzzlement. The window was not opened. Where did the wind come from?

The cool wind blew past. Chen Ying’s white gown was pinned by the needles so her clothes did not flutter, it only blew back her raven black hair.

Zhao Ying glanced at Chu Li.

Chu Li smiled and indicated at her not to speak.

As time went by slowly, the gust of wind slowly built up and the gentle breeze had become a strong wind.

Zhao Ying’s clothes were blown by the wind, making a fluttering sound, as if a gale was blowing.

Since noon, it had been like this, but in the evening, the blowing of the wind slowly became weaker.

Sunlight from the sunset shone through the window, dyeing the room a deep red.

Chu Li suddenly withdrew all the needles and Chen Ying slowly opened her eyes.

Zhao Ying saw that her eyes were brighter and her spiritual force was stronger. Although there was no sign of someone who had martial arts training, she did not appear as weak as before.

“Young master… ” Chen Ying clenched her fist, feeling the turbulent energy in her body and looked at Chu Li astonishingly.

Chu Li said, “From now on, you can practice martial arts, but do not practice heart techniques of martial arts, only practice the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait I taught you.”

“Yes,” Chen Ying promised without hesitation. “Young master, why can’t I practice the heart techniques?”

“The Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait I taught you is very abstruse, you can practice it at any time. The other heart techniques may not be as effective as the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait,” answered Chu Li.

“Alright.” Chen Ying did not ask any more questions.

Chen Ying knew that she had started at the eleventh hour. Practicing now was already very late, Chu Li must have thought of this situation, therefore he imparted her the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portrait.

She hesitated for a moment. “Young master wants to perform this acupuncture for each of the girls?”

“Whoever wants to practice martial arts, I will perform it on her.”

“Everyone wants to practice martial arts.”

“I will take my time and do it one by one.”

“Sorry to trouble young master.” Chen Ying said, “please have your dinner here!”

“Okay.” Chu Li nodded. “Let Chen Xue Ling come here, you girls can go now.”

“Okay.” Chen Ying compiled and went out.

Chen Xue Ling soon came in casually.

Chu Li enlightened her with the Art of White Tiger first and then performed the acupuncture, only finishing in the middle of the night.

All the girls came back to the residence and it became increasingly lively.

Chu Li did not return to the Public House altogether, he stayed and rested in the residence. After that, he went on enlightening the girls with the Art of White Tiger the next morning and performed the Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique.

He prepared ten sets of needles, relied on his strong spiritual power and performed the acupuncture on 10 people at one time.

Three days flew by in a blink, all the girls had successfully built a foundation and started cultivating the Art of White Tiger.

Chu Li had not decided which martial arts to teach them. To display the power of the Art of White Tiger, palm technique would not do, thus, he planned to teach them claw techniques or fist techniques, he even prepared to let them practice flying blades.

When he pushed open the door and entered the small courtyard, a rich refined spiritual force entered his body and it felt so comfortable that Chu Li sighed.

Xue Ling was practicing. She saw him come back and eyed him for a while. “Master, what is the matter?”

Chu Li waved his hand and sat back in the pagoda.

Xue Ling brewed some tea and brought it to him. She studied his face. “Why do you look so worn out?”

Chu Li, in these three days, had performed enlightenment and the Nine Transformation Meridian Reforming Technique without stopping. Even though his spirit was powerful, he still could not bear it. He looked like he had not slept for two days and exhaustion was clearly written between his brows.

“Nothing,” replied Chu Li.

“Master, could it be that you went to the New Moon Brothel?” Xue Ling scoffed.

Chu Li gave her an askance glare.

Xue Ling curled her red lips and changed the topic. “Master, I heard that the Public House has run into trouble!”

Chu Li lifted a single eyebrow.

Xue Ling knew that he was urging her to say it quickly so she whispered, “It seems that someone has robbed some of our things.”

“Who has such guts?” Chu Li frowned. “Ren Public House? It must be something valuable right?”

“It wasn’t the Ren Public House,” Xue Ling said. “It’s been stolen by someone from the Ferric Demon Ridge, what they robbed I do not know, but it must be very valuable. I heard that Master Xiao Tieying went into a rage and he has already sent someone!”
