The two of them walked along until the moon reached the zenith, stopped for a rest, and then continued on their way.
In the early morning, the two came to a mighty river.
The smoke was vast, and the river flowed slowly and slowly, like a vast lake, with sparkling waves and dense water vapor.
Looking around, the river bank on the opposite side was hidden in the early morning mist, making it unclear.
No matter how good their qinggong skills were, they could not cross the river, so they had to find a boat.
Chu Li frowned and glanced around, looking upstream.
"What's the matter?" Li Ruolan saw something wrong with his expression and hurriedly said, "Isn't it because the people from Haicang Mountain don't want to give up?"
Chu Li nodded slowly: "It seems that I underestimated them!"
"They still want to kill us?" Li Ruolan frowned.
She looked in the direction Chu Li was looking, but found nothing. It was a vast expanse of white with no trace of anyone at all.
Chu Li said: "They are underwater."
"Then we can't take the boat." Li Ruolan frowned and said, "I'm not a water person, and you're not a water person either, right?"
Chu Li shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, they can't get close,... let's go, there's a boat over there, let's take this boat."
While the two were talking, a small boat floated in the distance at an extremely fast speed.
The boatman is a young man with a strong body, a pair of arms exposed, and muscular lines that look like they are made of bronze.
This young man has an ordinary appearance, and his rocking movements are very easy. With a slight shake, the boat speeds like a flying fish, just like a fish swimming in the water.
After a while, the boat came close.
The young boatman stopped the oar and said, "You two gentlemen, do you want to cross the river?"
"If you'd like, please take us across the river." Chu Li said.
Li Ruolan frowned and stared at the young boatman, realizing that he had martial arts skills and should be at the innate perfection state.
Chu Li said: "Let's go, senior sister."
"This person..." Li Ruolan turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled: "It's okay."
"...Okay." Li Ruolan knew from the look on his face that he had discovered something wrong with the boatman.
The two of them floated onto the boat, and the boat didn't even move.
The young boatman shook the oar, and the boat quickly left the shore and headed towards the middle of the river.
"Are you a disciple of Haicang Mountain?" Chu Li sat on the bow of the boat and asked lazily: "Do you, Haicang Mountain, continue to hunt us down?"
"What are you talking about, sir?" The young boatman was startled and looked at him in confusion.
Chu Li shook his head and said: "If you don't say secret words in front of Mingren, if you Haicangshan keeps pestering you, don't blame me for being rude."
"I really don't understand what your guest said." The young boatman shook his head and swung the oar faster. In a short time, he was already more than a hundred meters away from the shore.
From this distance, he could still get back with his Qinggong, so he kept accelerating, trying to get them to the center of the river before the secret was exposed.
Chu Li sighed and shook his head: "You are stubborn!"
He closed his eyes and said no more.
They had already seen the murderous intention in the boatman's heart, and he had been restraining himself from killing people and making too deep a grudge. Unfortunately, Haicangshan didn't think so. He killed Zhao Haiyun, so they wanted to kill him.
The young boatman looked at him and stopped asking questions. He was worried. It seemed that he had figured out his identity, but he was confident. Could it be that he was good at water?
The boat soon reached the middle of the river, and the young boatman suddenly turned over and dived into the water.
Chu Li stretched out his hand.
"Tsk!" There was a soft whistle, and the young boatman was stabbed in the throat. He blushed quickly after falling into the river.
Chu Li got rid of the killer and was no longer polite.
He then waved his hand and fired several air knives.
"Chichichichi!" The air knife shot into the river.
Chu Li's face changed slightly.
After these air knives got into the water, their speed was greatly reduced. Some of them hit the people in the river, while others failed to hit them.
There were four middle-aged men in black suits in the river. They swam in like swimming fish and approached the boat.
"Chichichichi!" Chu Li shot out four more saber auras.
The resistance of the water was surprisingly strong, far from being as weak as he imagined. After the powerful sword energy penetrated into the water, he immediately turned into a good baby, without any murderous intent, and was easily deflected.
He cursed secretly and said in a deep voice: "Sister, be careful!"
He knew that the resistance of water was great, and even if a bullet was shot into the water, it would not be able to shoot very far, but he felt that what he was shooting was an invisible air knife, and the resistance should be much smaller. The air knife was extremely thin, and its power would not be lost in the water.
There were too many, so I didn’t pay much attention.
I never thought that once the speed of the sword energy is too fast, the resistance of the water will increase exponentially, not because the sword is thin and weak. In this way, the speed of the sword energy will be greatly slowed down, and the power will be greatly reduced.
"Huh——?" Li Ruolan was surprised.
Chu Li shook his head and said: "These guys want to build a boat!"
His internal force drove the boat, and it was like an arrow from the string, speeding across the water, much faster than the previous boat.
A middle-aged man was injured, but the sword energy had been greatly reduced and the injury was not serious.
The other three middle-aged men were like swimming fish, catching up faster than the boat. Like wolves chasing antelopes, they chased closer and closer, and finally reached the bottom of the boat.
"Bang bang bang bang!" Several big holes soon appeared in the bottom of the boat, and river water poured in.
Chu Li cursed secretly, and the long sword on his waist turned into a bit of cold light, instantly stabbing one person in the river, but the other two people ducked aside and could not be stabbed.
"Bang!" The boat suddenly fell into pieces, and Li Ruolan suddenly jumped up and flew into the air.
She almost drowned once when she was a child, and she had a shadow of water. Even if a master from the outside world could cut off breathing from the mouth and nose for several minutes and fall into the water without any harm, she still did not dare to fall into the water.
"Chichichichi!" Several hidden weapons were shot from the water into the air.
"Ding ding ding ding..." Li Ruolan waved her sword to block these hidden weapons, her movements sluggish.
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Chu Li jumped up and blocked her in the air, swinging his long sword to block all the hidden weapons.
Li Ruolan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Chu Li saw her fear of the water, held her waist and lowered her to a wooden board, urging the board to shoot out like a boat.
"Bang!" With a muffled sound, two people shot out of the water.
The two old men were all dressed in black leather clothes, with only a pair of eyes exposed, and they rushed towards Chu Li and Li Ruolan with the momentum of tigers.
Even with only one pair of eyes, Chu Li could recognize that one was the thin old man from before, while the other was a fat old man.
"Chichichi!" Chu Li returned the sword to its sheath and shot out two white lights from his right hand.
"Ding ding..." The flying knife fell on the black leather jacket and was immediately bounced away.
The two secretly vomited a mouthful of blood, trying not to retreat even after being shocked by Chu Li's strength. They used their remaining energy to rush to Chu Li, and stabbed Li Ruolan with their swords like electricity.
Li Ruolan waved her sword to greet him.
"Ding ding..." Li Ruolan's long sword flew out, and the light of the sword pierced her lower abdomen like electricity.
Chu Li hurriedly drew his sword and swung it to block the sword light, but suddenly he trembled. The sword contained strange power, making him freeze.
Unable to resolve it for a moment, the thin old man stabbed him in the abdomen with a sword.
The Dantian was immediately severely injured, and the cultivation level of the Great Light Technique suddenly leaked out like a bursting embankment, and all the energy and energy in the whole body was released at once.
"Junior Brother Zhao!" Li Ruolan exclaimed.
Chu Li tried his best to swing his sword at the skinny old man, but his internal strength was exhausted and his speed slowed down. The skinny old man easily dodged and stabbed him with another sword.
Li Ruolan shouted fiercely, and the Great Light Secret Technique was activated. A ball of flame ignited in her body, and her essence began to burn. She snatched Chu Li's sword, and the sword light swelled and enveloped the two old men.
As soon as the two old men saw her appearance, they knew that the secret technique of the Holy Sect of Light had been activated. The disciples of the Holy Sect of Light were still terrifying in this state, so they turned around and easily got into the river and disappeared.
