Chu Li chuckled. They had rushed straight into the formation.

Judging by their cultivation level, they should have been able to sense the danger there, and yet, they had stubbornly rushed into the building. This made him truly speechless. Perhaps it was due to their impulsiveness after all.

Yang Ying asked, “Is it a signal from the Phoenix Goddess Brothel?”

Chu Li nodded.

“Then what are you still doing here?” Yang Ying asked in confusion. “Are you scared too?”

Chu Li replied, “The Phoenix Goddess Brothel has already made preparations for this. Those guys won’t be able to get their desired outcome. We can just wait for their good news.”

“You’re a useless man too!” Yang Ying scoffed. Then, she pushed open the window and leaped out.

Chu Li shook his head in resignation before he jumped out of the Nine Star Tower as well and glided away with Yang Ying.

As they approached the Phoenix Goddess Brothel, they heard an endless stream of guzheng music.

Yang Ying frowned and said, “This guzheng music sounds rather odd. It’s the Musical Assassination Technique!”

Chu Li muttered, “Just wait outside. I’ll go in and take a look.”

Yang Ying asked in surprise, “You’re not afraid of the Musical Assassination Technique?”

Chu Li shook his head and then glided into the brothel.

The ten disciples of the Church of the Bloody Garment were desperately running around the main hall in circles. The sound of guzheng flowed into their ears like rushing water and they had nowhere to hide from it.

To avoid the formation, Chu Li used a special step technique. When he looked up and noticed Bai Feng standing behind a window while she waved at him, he leaped into the air and glided to the window to enter the room through it.

There were four other women playing the guzheng in the room. Yue Ru was seated at the front with the four women behind her, forming a semi-circle facing the window. They all had a solemn expression on their faces.

Bai Feng had her arms crossed as she stood and watched from the side. When she saw him entering the room, she gestured at the door.

The two of them went out of the room. Still, the guzheng music continued to drift around them and echo through the entire place.

“Your formation is very effective indeed.” Bai Feng smiled. “Initially, I was expecting to see a bloody fight, but it seems like this is going to be an easy victory for us. They’re going to die very soon. This has been an effortless battle.”

Chu Li laughed. “You reap what you sow. If you haven’t been so generous and shared those formation codices with me, I wouldn’t have known how to set up this formation.”

Bai Feng nodded. “We’re very fortunate that fate has brought us together here. You have contributed the most to our victory this time. Tian Luo Sect will certainly repay your kindness. Is there anything else you need?”

Chu Li gave it some thought. Then, he shook his head before he replied with a smile, “Consider this my repayment for the trouble you have taken to protect me before this.”

“You’ve repaid more than you owed.” Bai Feng stared at him intently.

“A small favor should be repaid with great ones.” Chu Li smiled.

Bai Feng nodded. “Alright then.”

Secretly, she had made the decision to prepare a good reward for Chu Li.

Without his help, the Phoenix Goddess Brothel disciples might have lost their lives by now. For her, every disciple’s death was like a wound that could never be healed.

The two of them went back into the room and looked down through the window at the ten disciples of the Church of the Bloody Garment downstairs who were slowly starting to collapse to the ground.

As the guzheng music grew louder and more intense, it shook the men downstairs to the core and even stimulated the Buddhas in the void of Chu Li’s mind to chant their scriptures faster. They had to chant at a far greater speed than before to pacify the throbbing in his mind so that he would not be affected by the guzheng sound.

“Senior Bai, I have a small request,” Chu Li said with a smile after a sudden inspiration occurred to him.

Bai Feng quickly asked, “What is it?”

Chu Li replied, “I’d like to have the disciples of Tian Luo Sect assist me in my cultivation by using the Musical Assassination Technique.”

“Oh…?” Bai Feng was surprised.

This was her first time hearing that the Musical Assassination Technique could be used to help someone with their cultivation.

Chu Li smiled and said, “I’d like to give it a try and see if it works.”

“I’ll let Yue Ru help you with that,” Bai Feng replied

Chu Li nodded.

The guzheng music suddenly turned deep before it grew loud again. Soon after, it grew soft once again. The drastic rise and fall in the music went on continuously.

“Puff, puff, puff, puff…” The disciples of the Church of the Bloody Garment began to spit out blood, except for the two middle-aged men, whose faces were flushed red as they strenuously tried to hold themselves together.

The guzheng music kept changing irregularly. Soon, war noises seemed to enter the music.

Illusions began to appear in the minds of the Church of the Bloody Garment’s disciples. They felt as though they were in a battle formation where thousands of men and horses were currently caught up in a chaotic battle. Occasionally, they were injured, before they were finally stabbed in the precordium by a long spear.

“Puff, puff, puff…” From time to time, some of them would spit a mouthful of blood before they felt their bodies go limp and they collapse to the ground. After that, they were left with no more energy to move.

The chanting of Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture in Chu Li’s mind became faster. Following that, the Great Light Scripture and the Heavenly Demon Scripture sped up as well. As numerous lotuses fell upon the heads and bodies of the Buddha and the Heavenly Demon, the effects of the Musical Assassination Technique were pacified, and Chu Li could feel his mind and spirit growing stronger.

With this, Chu Li noticed that the chanting of Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture was now three times faster and more efficient than usual — the Musical Assassination Technique was indeed an effective method. If he could maintain this rate of efficiency, he would be able to advance much faster in his cultivation.

As the guzheng music continued to grow more intense, the Church of the Bloody Garment’s disciples started to die, one after another. Having entered the formation, their minds had already been in a state of confusion. So, with the addition of the guzheng music, they stood no chance of using their powers to fight back and they were a rather pathetic sight.

In the end, the two middle-aged men collapsed as well.

They were both top-notch masters who were more or less on the same level as Bai Feng. However, as she watched them lie so weakly on the floor, Bai Feng could not help but sigh to herself. This showed that formations were extremely profound and contained formidable power. So much that even martial arts masters like them could not fight back against such power.

Seeing that the women were about to stop playing, Chu Li quickly added, “Continue playing. Those two guys are just playing dead.”

Bai Feng commanded, “Keep playing for another fifteen minutes!”

“Understood.” Yue Ru and the others obediently carried on playing the guzheng.

“I say, Miss Bai…” Zhang Junrui opened the door and walked in. He had just started to speak when he entered the formation.

The scene before his eyes changed abruptly. He immediately sensed that something was wrong and guessed that he had probably entered a formation. When he heard the sound of guzheng, he shuddered with fear as he shouted, “Miss Bai, stop joking around!”

Bai Feng’s voice spoke, “What are you doing here!”

“Of course, I’m here to help!” Zhang Junrui replied.

Bai Feng laughed scornfully. “Help? You’re just here to make things worse for us, aren’t you?”

“Of course not!” Zhang Junrui replied. “Can you please stop the music first?”

“You should enjoy our beautiful music too,” Bai Feng said coldly.

She had concluded that Zhang Junrui had come to take advantage of their misfortune and was sure that he bore no good intentions. Otherwise, he would not have sneaked over without informing her beforehand.

What a malicious man! If she did not teach him a lesson, he might really think that she was a pushover!

“This is a rare opportunity. Let’s kill him!” Bai Feng scoffed.

“Clang…” A sudden high note disrupted the music for a moment.

Bai Feng turned to glare at Yue Ru.

Yue Ru met her gaze and blushed in embarrassment while her hands pressed down on her guzheng strings. “Master…”

The other four women were still playing but the music they produced was significantly less powerful. Chu Li could distinctly feel the chanting of Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture slowing down slightly in his mind.

“You’re of no help at all. Move aside!” Bai Feng muttered coldly.

She nudged Yue Ru out of the way and sat in front of the table before she pressed her jade-like hands on her guzheng strings. Then, she started to play along with the four other women.

Immediately, the chanting of Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture sped up again in his mind and was now twice as fast compared to when Yue Ru was playing. As the three scriptures produced streams of lotuses that kept seeping into his body, he could feel his body growing stronger and his spirit being invigorated.

All of a sudden, the two middle-aged men leaped up and waved their palms around aggressively. However, as their blood-red palms hit the void, it felt as though their palms had collided with a wall and muffled noises came echoing from the impact.

Zhang Junrui, too, noticed that things were going badly for him. So, he hurriedly sat down to channel and resist the effects of the music.

After a while, the two middle-aged men suddenly fell back to the ground. They were struggling and squirming about in excruciating pain as Bai Feng’s guzheng sound became sharper and more forceful.

Whereas Zhang Junrui grew increasingly pale as white steam began to appear above his head. He was trembling all over and was struggling to withstand the pain.

Bai Feng had reached an exceptionally high boundary in her Music Assassination Technique, so Zhang Junrui was no match for her.

Witnessing this situation, Chu Li could not help but sigh in admiration. She was indeed the infamous Bai Feng; her Music Assassination Technique was truly unparalleled
