In fact, the fact that two grandmasters can emerge from a single sect has only ever happened in the Tongtian Palace.
However, although the Tongtian Twins are both Grandmasters, they hide at the foot of Changsheng Mountain every day and do not engage in worldly affairs, so their influence on the outside world is negligible.
However, Prince Jin and the leader of Qingyang Sect were quite different. One coveted the world and dreamed of becoming emperor, while the other coveted the martial arts world and dreamed of becoming king.
What would happen if two ambitious men simultaneously reached the highest level of martial arts? Lu Li had already realized the seriousness of the matter, and she would no longer choose to act rashly—the sixth level peak and the grandmaster seemed to be only one level apart, but in reality, they were worlds apart!
For Lu Li, a sixth-level peak cultivator, to seek revenge against Grandmaster Jin Wang would be like throwing an egg against a rock, leading to his own destruction!
So she didn't take action, but instead lay in wait in Jinxi, near Prince Jin and his men, partly to familiarize herself with their movements and partly to find an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
Following along, Lu Li traveled all the way from Jinxi to here, and she also overheard some of the Prince of Jin's plans, which seemed to involve allying with the Western Frontier and Southern Qi to conquer Jingzhou, thereby taking over Anguo and declaring himself king and emperor.
Especially the Western Frontier King Kadan, from whom Lu Li heard that he was plotting with the Prince of Jin to deceive Jing Zhe. After hearing this, Lu Li was like an ant on a hot pan. She wanted to inform Jing Zhe and tell him not to fall for these people's tricks, but she was troubled because she did not know where Jing Zhe had gone. She had already learned a lot about Jing Zhe when she was training in the martial arts world, and she also knew that Jing Zhe was traveling around and had no fixed abode.
Unable to get in touch, Lu Li decided to stay by Prince Jin's side. It would be best if they didn't encounter Jing Zhe; if they did, she could secretly help them.
And she guessed right, and it actually helped!
After listening, Jing Zhe took Lu Li's hand.
Lu Li frowned slightly, her body stiffened a bit, but she still didn't shake off his hand and let him hold it.
Jing Zhe was overjoyed, but his face remained impassive as he continued to hold Lu Li's hand, saying, "This time, we owe a great debt to our eldest sister! Actually, I was careless. Before coming to Ruzhou, both my third sister and I sensed something was wrong. My third sister even reminded me several times, but I was a bit arrogant and didn't take it seriously, which is why I underestimated our enemy!"
Lu Li nodded and patted him, saying, "Zhe'er, you don't need to blame yourself too much. Actually, whether you were prepared or not, the result would be the same. After all, they are two grandmasters. The fact that you are still alive is already a stroke of luck amidst misfortune!"
After saying that, Lu Li reached into her bosom. Jing Zhe, who was standing next to her, was a little dumbfounded: It seems that my eldest sister has changed a lot in the past six months. Of course, he didn't mean big in the sense of physical size. Although Lu Li's bosom was indeed very large, he was referring to Lu Li's personality.
If it were before, if Jing Zhe had hugged and touched Lu Li, she would probably have hit him countless times. But now, Lu Li not only doesn't hit him, but also lets him do whatever he wants.
Just like now, she actually put her hand inside her chest...
"You must be hungry now, right? I haven't found anything else to eat, so just make do with this..."
No way, no way...
Despite telling himself it wouldn't happen, Jing Zhe was still looking forward to it and was still struggling with whether to eat it or not if Yi Li pulled out something inappropriate for children.
If we don't eat it, wouldn't that be disrespectful to Lu Li?
But Jing Zhe felt a little embarrassed to eat it.
Well, he dreams about it all the time…
However, Jing Zhe was still somewhat disappointed when he saw Lu Li pull a piece of cake out of her chest.
Lu Li quickly noticed Jing Zhe's reaction and said with some self-reproach, "Because I was worried that something might happen to you here, I didn't dare to go far. But there's no one around, so I can only ask Zhe'er to eat some of the dry food I always carry with me."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Jing Zhe felt both moved and ashamed.
"Big sister, don't feel wronged, I'm actually hungry!"
As he spoke, Jing Zhe snatched the slightly hardened but still warm pancake from Lu Li's hand and began to chew it in large bites.
To be honest, this unassuming and somewhat dry pancake tasted incredibly sweet. Could this be the bonus from spending so much time in Lu Li's arms?
While eating, Jing Zhe said, "Big sister, I must say, these pancakes you brought are so fragrant! They're really delicious!"
Watching Jing Zhe wolf down his food with gusto, Lu Li, in a very feminine way, smoothed her hair and laughed, "It's not because this pancake is so delicious, but because you're starving! When you're hungry, even bran tastes sweet as honey, that saying is always true."
As Jing Zhe ate, he squeezed out the words through his teeth: "Big sister is wrong. I ate a lot when I came out, so how could I be hungry? It's clearly because the pancake you brought is delicious!"
Jing Zhe was flattering him, but he felt that it wasn't really flattery, because he was just telling the truth!
After listening, Lu Li laughed again, "You ate a lot when you came out, but that was yesterday! You haven't eaten all day, no wonder you're hungry!"
"..."
Jing Zhe was stunned after hearing this.
Haven't eaten all day?
Jing Zhe took a bite of the pancake and quickly looked up. Although it was daytime, he could tell that the time was definitely earlier than before—to be precise, earlier than when he fought with the Prince of Jin!
At this moment, Lu Li said again, "You underestimate a Grandmaster! The injuries you suffered yesterday, let alone an ordinary person, even if I were hit a few times by someone as solid as Prince Jin and the Qingyang Sect Leader, I would probably die! Although you are a Grandmaster with outstanding self-recovery ability, it is impossible for you to wake up immediately, right?"
Jing Zhe was taken aback and exclaimed, "Big sister, you're not saying I've been sleeping here for a whole day and night, are you?"
Lu Li nodded, confirming that Jing Zhe was right.
Jing Zhe was shocked. No wonder he was knocked unconscious with one palm, but when he woke up he felt fine. It turned out he had rested for a whole day and night!
However, Jing Zhe immediately stood up after realizing what was happening, but then lowered his head again. Even he couldn't withstand the blows from the Prince of Jin and the Qingyang Sect Leader. There were only a few thousand garrison troops led by Yu Li in Ruzhou City. How could they possibly withstand the rebel army and the Western Frontier Heavy Cavalry Regiment?
Lu Li stayed outside the woods for a day and a night, probably because the Prince of Jin had captured Ruzhou and they couldn't go back now, right?
Thinking about this, although it was something he couldn't change, Jing Zhe still felt somewhat guilty. If he hadn't been so arrogant, if he had taken the enemy seriously, or if he had waited in the room until Qiu Qianqian woke up and asked her what had happened, things wouldn't have turned out this way.
Although one person cannot defeat two grandmasters, if you prepare hundreds or thousands of grenades in advance, who would dare to attack?
