After their lives were taken away from them by their entire family, they regretted it

Early the next morning, when Chu Li opened his eyes, Nangong Shi had already left.

The entire Baiyang Inn was deserted, and only the fragrance beside the bed proved that she had been there.

Looking sideways, a wooden box was placed beside the bed.

He sat up and opened the wooden box. Inside was an extremely delicate bell.

Chu Li is also very clear about its function.

Life bell.

This is the name of this bell, and it is also an extremely valuable item made by the Nangong family using secret techniques.

Legend has it that this life bell was made by taking the essence and blood of the Nangong family when they were born. It usually has one master and two pairs, a total of three. Its function is also very simple, that is, to save life and call for help.

As long as the chi in the body is used to activate the bells, no matter how far apart they are, the owners of the other two bells will also know their locations, so that they can rescue them.

This kind of thing is undoubtedly given to the people closest to it. Normally, the two deputy bells are given to parents or children.

But what Chu Li didn't expect was that Nangong Shi actually gave one of them to him.

"Ah Li, if you saved my life this time, I will save your life again in the future. This is only fair, isn't it?"

Recalling the playful and cute Nangong Shi who said this, Chu Li couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

In the original work, Nangong Shi also gave the life bell to Chu Li, but it was in the Shengwu Academy Competition a year later. After the two cleared up their misunderstanding and reconciled, they didn't expect that Chu Li would receive the Life Bell a whole year earlier in reality, and that's not all.

There is an extra purple token with a few big words written on it

【Demon Killing Order】

"This is the Purple Order of the Demon Slaying Division. It can mobilize twenty Demon Slaying Division captains in any Demon Slaying Division."

"It seems that she still doesn't trust me."

Sighing, Chu Li only felt the kindness of the beauty.

The two met by chance, and saving her was just an unexpected move by Chu Li, but Nangong Shijing was so kind to him.

Moreover, she should have to do more than that..

After hearing what happened to Chu Li last night, Nangong Shi obviously had great opinions on the Chu family.

"How dare the Chu family treat you like this? Don't worry, A-Li, this matter will never end like this!"

Obviously, as Chu Li's nominal fiancée, Nangong Shi will cause trouble for the Chu family in the future.

But what does this have to do with him?

The Chu family treated him like this. If they could do it, why would they be afraid of being known?

Moreover, he had already left the Chu family a long time ago. The Chu family didn't care about his life or death, so why should he care about the Chu family?

Getting out of bed, putting on clothes, Chu Li checked the inn.

At this time, the body of the pig demon was still in the inn. It was just dawn and there were not many pedestrians, so it had not been noticed.

But after that, I'm afraid that the officials will come, and a lot of troubles will be inevitable.

"It's better to leave first to save yourself the trouble."

Thinking of this, Chu Li picked up the bamboo hat on the side and left the Baiyang Inn early.

Walking on the official road, Chu Li thought about his next move.

At this moment, the system prompt sound came

【Ding】

【You got a new mission】

【Bloodtalon Mountain Temple】

【Recently, the clouds and mist on Yunlong Mountain rolled up, and the air was filled with blood. It was a sign of great misfortune. Woodcutters at the foot of the mountain frequently disappeared, and the celebrities who lived in seclusion in the mountains also lost contact.

Some people said that this was because some rude people angered the mountain god. The evidence was that someone saw a huge blood claw mark in the mountain god temple. For a time, people at the foot of the mountain were in turmoil.】

【Please investigate the truth behind the mountain temple】

【Mission level: two and a half stars】

"Um?"

"I have never seen this mission before."

Looking at the tasks in the system, Chu Li raised his eyebrows slightly.

After Baiyangdian killed the pig demon this time, he originally thought that the next tasks would also be in the plot, but now it seems that is not the case.

This time in the Mountain Temple There seems to be no mission in the original work, at least he has no impression of it, and judging from the mission introduction, the difficulty should not be low.

"The clouds and mist are rolling, and the blood is in the air. This is not like the movement that ordinary acquired world monsters can make."

"But why is the mission level only two and a half stars?"

"This demon on Yunlong Mountain is more than a little stronger than the pig demon, right?"

Hearing Chu Li talking to himself, the system's voice sounded.

【It's very simple, because the mission level is determined according to your strength】

【You are now in the late stage of the acquired realm, so the difficulty of the mission has naturally increased.】

"I see."

Nodding slightly, Chu Li already had some thoughts in his heart.

This time he took advantage of the opportunity to kill the demon at Baiyang Inn. Nangong Shi had been fighting the pig demon for a long time before he could succeed in the battle.

But Yunlong Mountain is different. He had no idea what was going on there or the number of monsters.

After the conflict with the Chu family, his health got even worse. With his current physical condition, he would probably faint in the middle of the fight.

"We must find some elixirs so that we can hold on"

"It seems that I have no choice but to go back to the Martial Academy."

Thinking of this, Chu Li followed the teams entering the city from all over the country, all the way back to the Imperial Capital, and walked towards the Imperial Capital Martial Academy with a familiar look.

The Martial Academy was established by the current Emperor Wu of Daxia after he came to power. It has branches all over the country, and its purpose is very simple, which is to recruit talented warriors from all over the country.

If Shengwu Academy is the place where the younger generation of various forces and aristocratic families compete, then the Martial Academy is the cradle of civilian geniuses.

Although the training resources are far from comparable to those of Shengwu Academy, there is no shortage of extremely talented people in the Martial Academy. With the guidance of famous teachers, the probability of success is not as high as that of Shengwu Academy, but it is much higher than practicing on your own.

Of course, these are not free.

Students in the Martial Academy must sign a contract upon admission, and are not allowed to join any martial arts sects. The first consideration for taking a job is the court of Daxia.

Such a contract can be said to restrict the freedom of martial arts students to a certain extent. Some people care a lot about it, but Chu Li thinks it's nothing.

Will you be free if you join those sects? Aren't you still bound by the sect?

Compared with joining a sect, it is better to go to the martial arts academy. At least there are not so many rules, and the martial arts academy has indeed been thriving in recent years.

The evidence is that the names of martial arts students have gradually appeared on the list of the top 100 geniuses in Daxia, which was unimaginable in the past. In the past, the genius list was full of the descendants of major forces. Have there ever been civilians?

Stepping into the gate of the martial arts academy, although it was early in the morning, Chu Li had already seen many martial arts students practicing.

And he, wearing a bamboo hat, soon attracted the attention of others.

"Hmm? That person is Chu Li, right?"

"Chu Li? Is that the top three martial arts master?"

"Yes, it's him."

People nearby were talking about it, and many of them even bowed to him.

Obviously, Chu Li's efforts over the years have not been in vain. As a member of the martial arts academy, he has been respected by many people here.

At this time, a voice came from behind Chu Li.

"Chu Li, long time no see"

"Um?"
