Chapter 880: 880
Fortunately, they were not just planting one type of spirit herb in the Spirit Medicine Nurseries . It meant that he would not have to take care of all the Spirit Medicine Nurseries there anyway .
Even so, the production volume of the Golden Glow Grass had become very shocking .
Two months later, they had already harvested enough Golden Glow Grass .
Chu Li finally managed to free himself and let go of all the other Spirit Medicine Nurseries to focus on looking after his own garden again . However, he was no longer growing the Golden Glow Grass but the Nine Spirits Grass .
The Nine Spirits Grass and the Golden Glow Grass were two entirely different types of spirit herbs .
While the Golden Glow Grass had milder medicinal properties, it was the most important supplementary ingredient for producing pills . On the contrary, the Nine Spirits Grass contained astounding medicinal properties but was not needed in large amounts . It was apparently the main ingredient for the Miracle Cure Pill and the Light Pill . However, it was even more delicate than the Golden Glow Grass .
Since their Golden Glow Grass supply was now sufficient for immediate demands, Zhou Huang handed the task of planting the Nine Spirits Grass over to Chu Li with the hope of utilizing Chu Li’s special ability to increase their production volume of the Nine Spirits Grass .
Once they had more of this rare and precious spirit herb, they could still use it for trading purposes with other sects and would be able to gain countless benefits from that too even if they would not be using it to refine and produce pills .
Since he was watching over one Spirit Medicine Nursery now, Chu Li was at ease once again .
In the evening that day, just as the sun was setting in the west, he went to Flavorful Tower and noticed Qin Huaichuan and Meng Luo from afar .
Meng Luo was facing the direction of the entrance, so he saw Chu Li coming and quickly left the building with Qin Huaichuan to avoid any potential conflict .
All disciples at Great Light Peak had heard by now that Zhao Dahe possessed a unique talent at planting spirit herbs and so had become a favorite of the Spirit Medicine Nursery . After having gained great merit, his performance had far surpassed all of the other new disciples, which now made him worthy of his reputation as the top disciple here .
Chu Li smiled and did not go looking for trouble . Instead, he lazily came to the table at which Song Donglin and his friends were sitting .
Chu Li was beaming as he said, “Junior Sister Mo, you look good as always!”
Mo Cuicui was dressed in a white tunic and looked elegant and charming . She gritted her teeth and glared at him hatefully . “Senior Brother Zhao, please wait a moment!”
As she spoke, she quickly stood up and left to take a tray and fill it with food for Chu Li .
Sun Lihua and Song Donglin shook their heads and smiled mirthlessly .
Sun Lihua sighed and said, “Junior Brother Zhao, you should give in to Junior Sister Mo . You’re a man, so you shouldn’t be so petty!”
Chu Li smiled . “Since she has agreed to make that bet, she must be willing to accept her defeat . She has indeed admitted defeat anyway, so what can she do about it? Moreover, serving food isn’t that difficult of a task . It won’t take her much effort!”
“It may not take her much effort, but it can make her very upset . ” Sun Lihua shook her head and said, “Every time she sees you, she becomes filled with rage . ”
Chu Li laughed heartily . “That’s a good thing . ”
“You…” Sun Lihua shook her head .
She noticed that Zhao Dahe had both a ruthless side and a childish side to him . When dealing with Qin Huaichuan and his people, he would be vicious and cunning . When he was with Mo Cuicui, on the other hand, the two of them would stubbornly oppose each other and would absolutely refuse to give in .
“Bang!” Mo Cuicui placed the tray of food forcefully on the table in front of Chu Li with a huff and muttered, “Senior Brother Zhao, enjoy!”
Chu Li grinned at her and replied, “Thank you, Junior Sister Mo . ”
“Humph!” Mo Cuicui began digging into her food as she knew that she could never win an argument against this guy .
“Junior Brother Zhao seems more relaxed now,” Sun Lihua commented .
Chu Li nodded . “I finally don’t have to slave around like a dog . I can relax for some time now . ”
“Why have you been working so hard before this?” Song Donglin asked .
Chu Li shook his head . “This is classified information . I can’t tell you anything about it . ”
“Hehe…” Song Donglin chuckled . “What classified information can new disciples like us come into contact with!”
“Well, the Qiu Dynasty and the Li Dynasty are going to be at war . Would such a piece of information be considered classified?” Chu Li asked with a smile .
Sometimes, sharing secrets could help to strengthen a friendship . If he wished to obtain secret information from others, he would have to reveal some secret information of his own too . This was an unspoken rule deeply ingrained in human nature that could be applied in all situations .

“They’re going to be at war with us?” Song Donglin was shocked .
“Why is it the Qiu Dynasty instead of the Ji Dynasty?” Sun Lihua was puzzled .
Chu Li replied, “We’ve been actively attacking the Ji Dynasty, but this time, it’s the Qiu Dynasty who has attacked us . They probably wanted to take advantage of our preoccupation with the Ji Dynasty and profit from our hectic situation!”
“Damn it!” Song Donglin muttered resentfully, “These guys are too despicable!”
“Indeed, they’re despicable . That’s why we’re going to teach them a good lesson . ” Chu Li nodded .
Song Donglin asked, “When will the war start?”
Chu Li shook his head and replied, “We’re still preparing for it, so I think it may still be some time away . After all, it’ll take quite a while to mobilize our troops . ”
“Junior Brother Zhao, it seems like your contribution is very huge this time . ” Song Donglin chuckled . “The Golden Glow Grass is an indispensable ingredient for producing pills . ”
“It’s just a small contribution on my part,” Chu Li said with a smile .
After the four of them had finished their meal, Mo Cuicui snickered and asked, “Senior Brother Zhao, have you been staying away from the martial arts field because you’re afraid of being challenged by the others?”
“I’m just too lazy to entertain them,” Chu Li replied with a scornful laugh . “Alright then, I’ll go and take a look today . ”
“You should be careful then . There will certainly be people challenging you!”
“That would be great!”
There were more than twenty other people practicing in the martial arts field when the four of them arrived .
The martial arts field was covered in snowy white sand and looked spotlessly clean . It was almost identical to the white tunic everyone else was wearing .
Chu Li came and stood firmly in the martial arts field . As his condescending gaze swept over the people there, he raised his voice and said, “Whoever is not convinced of my skills, would you dare to come forward and challenge me?”

The people broke into discussions all at once . They did not expect him to be so arrogant .
Chu Li gave a loud laugh . “Is there anyone bold enough to try and fight me?”
“I’ll do it!” Meng Luo shouted in a determined tone and glided over to meet Chu Li . “Zhao Dahe, you’re being too arrogant right now . You really think you’re the strongest in the world!”
Chu Li scoffed . “You…? You’re not even worth mentioning!”
“Very well . I’d like to challenge your fist technique!” Meng Luo shouted .
Chu Li replied, “Since it’s a challenge, who cares what martial art technique we use? Might as well not restrict ourselves . ”
“Fist technique!” Meng Luo insisted with a huff .
No matter how angry and impulsive he was, he knew that he would not be able to go up against Zhao Dahe’s Light Blade .
Zhao Dahe had cultivated up until the ninth level of the Light Blade, and everyone was aware of this fact since no one else in the Holy Church of Light had ever managed to achieve that level aside from the Saint .
All of them knew just how formidable the power of the Light Blade was .
Chu Li snickered and said, “Alright then, fist technique it is! We’ll have to trouble you again, Elder Yang!”
Elder Yang, who had previously witnessed the fight between him and Qin Huaichuan, glided over and said impassively, “Be more careful this time . You better not cause any huge trouble . ”
Chu Li smiled and said, “Okay, there’ll only be physical injuries this time . I won’t cripple anyone’s cultivation . ”
“Alright then . You may begin!” Elder Yang felt somewhat worried .
If Zhao Dahe were to cause trouble again, the situation would become a complicated one . The torture chamber had been keeping a close eye on that previous case involving Zhao Dahe as they had been trying to get to the bottom of the incident, and because of that, they had been bothering Elder Yang for quite a while .
Chu Li stood nonchalantly in his spot . “Hurry up and throw a punch then . You only have one chance to throw your punch . ”

“Take this!” Meng Luo gritted his teeth and gathered all of his inner energy before launching his fist . It was the Divine Light Fist .
Chu Li turned his body and dodged it effortlessly before throwing out a punch .
“Bang!” Meng Luo was sent flying away .
He reached a ten-meter height, which was roughly as tall as a three-floor building, and then landed twenty meters away with a loud “bang . ” He was unable to move after that .
Chu Li slowly withdrew his fist and shook his head . “You’ve overestimated yourself! … Who else would like to challenge me?”
The people’s expressions changed slightly .
They all knew how strong Meng Luo was in his martial arts skills since Meng Luo had been practicing with them all the time . His cultivation level was slightly above average among them .
They could not believe that Meng Luo had not managed to even avoid Chu Li’s fist .
“My turn!” Another young man came forward .
Chu Li did not even bother to ask for his name and directly said, “Go ahead and throw a punch!”
“Bang!” As his fist collided with his opponent’s, the young man was sent flying too .
Chu Li scoffed and asked, “Who’s next?”
“My turn!” Another young disciple came forward .
Chu Li threw out a punch again .
Following that, ten more disciples came forward to challenge him but none of them could even take a punch from him, so he continued to carry himself with extreme arrogance as he stood there in an imposing manner .
