Chapter 986: 986

“Hold it!” Elder Song turned around .

The ugly young man hesitated in his steps but continued walking almost right after .

Elder Song asked hastily, “Who are you?”

“Zhao Dahe!” The young man waved his arm dismissively and pressed on, leaving a larger distance between himself and Elder Song .

Elder Song said in a low voice, “What’s the condition?”

Chu Li stopped dead in his tracks and turned his head . “White Tiger Power!”

Secretly, Elder Song heaved a sigh of relief . Fortunately, he did not need to go against his Master .

After that, he became cautious once more . Why did the young man demanded the White Tiger Power from him? Obviously, Zhao Dahe already knew about the relationship between him and the Master . Zhao Dahe was also aware that Elder Song was hiding Zheng Yanwu .

Chu Li spoke calmly, “Relax, I’m not telling you to fight Zheng Yanwu . ”

Elder Song finally concluded that Zhao Dahe really did know the Master was hiding in his residence .

Chu Li said, “I want the complete White Tiger Power . If you can get it, I will trade a Miracle Cure Pill for it!”

“How do I know you aren’t trying to trick me?!” Elder Song retorted .

His heart raced frantically .

Naturally, Elder Song had heard of the wonders of the Miracle Cure Pill . It was a specialty of the Holy Church of Light and it could restore one’s martial arts abilities .

A regular disciple would never be able to get his hands on such a pill . However, Zhao Dahe was a genius and an important figure nurtured and protected by the Holy Church of Light . Thus, it was not surprising for him to own the Miracle Cure Pills .

If Elder Song could consume the Miracle Cure Pill, his martial arts prowess, which had been crippled for many years, could be restored right away . Immediately, his life would be extended to two hundred years or even three hundred years . As someone who was nearing the end of his life, it was an irresistible temptation .

Chu Li declared, “I, Zhao Dahe, will never break a promise . You can find out from others about me! …Besides, it’s just one Miracle Cure Pill and nothing much!”

“You’ll silence me . ” Elder Song’s voice deepened .

Chu Li gave him a sideways glance and said coldly, “Why would I silence you? Will the White Tiger Sect show me mercy if I don’t learn the White Tiger Power in secret? What can the sect do if I do learn their technique? I bet you are the one who’s afraid of leaking it, aren’t you?”

Elder Song was at a loss for words and nodded slowly .

The Master had violated the rule that disallowed hundred-year masters to involve themselves in the martial arts world and to disturb world peace by descending the mountain . He would be punished by the sect and have his martial arts prowess crippled . Nevertheless, if Zhao Dahe killed the Master, the sect would certainly not let this matter slide . They would definitely seek revenge .

Following that, he had a sudden realization . The Master was not dead, but he had already regarded the Master as a dead person!

“Do you have the complete set of White Tiger Power techniques?” Chu Li asked coolly .

“Yes!” Elder Song replied .

Chu Li looked deeply into his eyes and realized Elder Song was telling the truth . He did have the complete set of techniques .

“Do you want to trade?” Chu Li got out a jade bottle and poured out a snow-white pill . Suddenly, a small, thin knife appeared between his fingers and he used it to split the pill in half .

Chu Li tossed one half of the pill to the old man . “Take this . The other half must be consumed within an hour so that its effect won’t be reduced!”

Elder Song received it and stared at the oddly-scented pill . His expression was unreadable .

Instead of egging him on, Chu Li merely looked at him with a smile .

Elder Song’s heart was beating rapidly . On one hand, he could not betray the White Tiger Sect and reveal the White Tiger Power’s secrets . On the other hand, he only had a few more years to live and the sect was unable to help him restore his past abilities .

After heaving a few breaths, his hunger for survival overcame everything . He closed his eyes and swallowed the pill .

At once, a stream of fresh, clear air circulated Elder Song’s organs and entered his Dantian .

His dried-up meridians seemed to regain their moisture and a gust of warm air emerged from his Dantian like a seedling that was about to emerge from the soil, yet faced difficulties in doing so . This sort of feeling made him anxious and he desired for more .

Chu Li grinned . “As promised?”

“Follow me!” Elder Song said in a low voice .

Chu Li nodded with satisfaction . “If you don’t pull any tricks, the other half shall be given to you . ”

“Don’t you worry!” Elder Song uttered unhurriedly .

Both of them returned to Elder Song’s residence and stepped into his study .

Elder Song removed a thick book from the bookshelf and handed it to Chu Li . “The incantations and White Tiger Portraits are all inside . My drawing skills are average, so the portraits aren’t that spectacular . ”

Chu Li flipped through the book quickly . There were nine White Tiger Portraits in total as well as an incantation with almost a hundred characters .

He pondered for a while . These nine portraits differed from the Sun Cultivating White Tiger Portraits but there was a vague connection between them . Moreover, the incantations were arcane and hard to decipher, which made him furrow his brows .

“Is this the enlightenment technique you use when you pass on martial arts?” Chu Li asked .

“Yes . ” Elder Song nodded . “The nine portraits use the enlightenment technique . ”

“Try cultivating it for me to have a look,” Chu Li said .

Elder Song felt curious about Chu Li’s request to watch him cultivate . After all, he could not see anything that went on in his brain . Still, he did not refuse, for his time was almost up and the buzzing sensation in his Dantian became weaker . The pill was going to lose its effect soon and he would lose his opportunity to restore his martial arts prowess .

He was so close to achieving his dream and this made it impossible for him to deny Chu Li’s request .

Thus, he sat on the bed and began to channel his energy . The nine White Tiger Portraits appeared one by one in his mind .

Chu Li read his thoughts and nodded to himself . Elder Song was truly an honest man . He actually handed over the White Tiger Power to him and did not play any tricks to harm him .

“Okay,” Chu Li remarked .

Elder Song opened his eye, a dazed look upon his face . “Actually, there’s no point in knowing about the White Tiger Power . The incantation is tough and there is a collection of complicated practice notes in the White Tiger Sect . Without these notes written by elders and experts, you won’t be able to comprehend and cultivate the technique despite obtaining the incantation . ”

Chu Li spoke, “You don’t have to worry about this . Come on, here’s the other half . ”

He tossed the remaining half of the pill to Elder Song .

Elder Song hesitated momentarily, looked at Chu Li and consumed the pill .

He was also worried that Chu Li might have doctored the pill . At present, he was not a Grandmaster and was unable to sense danger . If the pill was poisoned, he would not be able to determine that .

It was too late anyway . He had no choice but to trust Chu Li .

A stream of fresh air penetrated his organs and gathered in his Dantian . The energy that buzzed about in his body suddenly expanded like a sprouting seedling and wisps of inner energy accumulated in his Dantian . The inner energy grew denser and Elder Song scaled the ranks from an Acquired Master to an Innate Master and ultimately a Grandmaster .

“Boom!” His robes fluttered about in spite of the absence of air and his white beard quivered as if he was standing in the midst of a gale .

Chu Li looked at him with a grin .

Elder Song opened his eyes, which gleamed with vigor .

Chu Li cupped his fists . “Congratulations!”

Elder Song saluted in return and he felt extremely grateful .

He never expected Chu Li to keep his promise .

Chu Li said, “Seeing that it has been a pleasant and successful transaction, I’ll grant you a word of advice . ”

“Carry on!” Elder Song replied .

Chu Li spoke, “Leave this place in case the White Tiger Sect seeks you out . The world is vast and there isn’t a place you can’t go!”

Elder Song frowned .

Chu Li calmly continued, “You used to be a cripple, hence the elders of the Holy Church did not take your life!”

Elder Song shook his head . “I won’t abandon the Master!”

“He’s already dead!” Chu Li gave a fist salute and left .

When he appeared in Gale Branch and arrived at the two women’s residence, a beautiful middle-aged woman was treating their wounds .

The two women sat side by side on the bed while the middle-aged woman sat behind them . She pressed each palm upon each of the women’s backs as steam rose from her white hair .

Chu Li sat to the side and did not disturb them .

After some time, the middle-aged woman withdrew her palms, opened her eyes and looked at him .

Chu Li cupped his fists . “This is…”

“This is Zeng Hua, Master’s Junior Zeng,” Li Ruolan answered him as she opened her eyes .

Chu Li asked, “Is Master’s Junior Zeng here to help us?”

Zeng Hua responded emotionlessly, “I’m not here to help you . I’ve been sent here to take Zheng Yanwu’s life . ”
