Liu Li was an Empyrean that had only appeared in recent years, and Yuan Chao had been away from the nine heavens for a long time, so his understanding of Liu Li was very limited.
Of course, through his perception of the revered list, he had a rough idea of Liu Li's strength. Furthermore, he had heard Wei Xuanji mention the relationship between Tang Huan and Liu Li before. He also knew that Qin Hongye, who was ranked second on the revered list, was behind Liu Li.
However, he was not an ordinary Empyrean.
Qin Hongye was ranked second, and he was ranked third. They were both Empyreans whose cultivations had long since reached the peak of the Upper Realm. If they really fought, it was unknown who would win. Furthermore, he was not the strongest Empyrean in the Clear Void Dao Pavilion. Above him, there was still Gu Daozi, who was ranked at the top of the revered list.
The Clear Void Dao Pavilion had mobilized all the experts in the Flying Star Sect to search for Tang Huan's whereabouts in this Heaven Realm.
Liu Li had a close relationship with Tang Huan, so when she heard the news, she quickly rushed over. Her goal was obvious, so her appearance was not strange.
"Liu Li, you came at the right time."
As he muttered softly, a cold and ruthless light flashed across Yuan Chao's eyes.
Liu Li and Tang Huan had a close relationship, so it was likely that she had a communication tool that had fused with Tang Huan's Mind Stigma. As long as he captured Liu Li and obtained the communication tool, it would be easy for him to investigate Tang Huan's whereabouts. With the Mind Stigma, even if Tang Huan could deceive the Heavenly Dao, it would still be difficult for her to escape his deduction.
"Grand Elder, you mean …" Fu Anguo's heart was moved.
"Since she has delivered herself to my doorstep, do I still need to hesitate?" Yuan Chao sneered, and in a moment of mind instructs (in a second), the two saint rank dao tools had already been put away, "The second ranked Qin Xian Ye can indeed cause many Empyreans and sects to shrink back, but this old man is not included, and neither is our Clear Void Dao Pavilion."
"Send a message to the Empyrean stationed there to keep an eye on Liu Li." In an instant, Yuan Chao shouted in a deep voice.
"Yes sir!"
Fu Anguo immediately bowed and agreed. When he straightened his waist, Yuan Chao's figure had already disappeared from the palace. After a slight hesitation, Fu Anguo immediately followed. Just as Yuan Chao had said, the Clear Void Dao Pavilion did not need to worry about the Qin Xian Ye behind Liu Li.
In his opinion, no matter how difficult Qin Xian Ye was to deal with, he wouldn't be as difficult as Tang Huan.
…
Outside Star City, tens of thousands of miles away, Liu Li was walking with a frosty face.
She knew very well how great the risk was for her to enter the Flying Star Sect. If she stayed at the peak of the Crimson Sky Kingdom's nine palaces, no one would dare to act rashly. Even Yuan Chao, who was ranked third on the revered list, would not make a move.
Over the years, the formation she had set up had become even more stable.
Even if Yuan Chao were to personally make a move, with her overseeing the array, it would be enough to keep Yuan Chao out for a long time. With this buffer time, he could definitely hold on until Qin Xian Ye arrived to save him.
However, after leaving the Nine Palace Peak and coming to the Flying Star Sect, she was like a tree without roots, a duckweed without roots.
In the lair of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion, Yuan Chao would definitely not have any worries, and with her current cultivation, it would still be difficult for her to contend against Yuan Chao.
Moreover, in this Flying Star Sect, Yuan Chao was not the only Empyrean level powerhouse.
Almost as soon as she passed through the teleportation array and arrived at the Flying Star Sect, Liu Li discovered that she had been targeted. Even after he left Star City, the tail behind him did not disappear.
Following her was a peak Inferior Empyrean from the Flying Star Sect called Suo Mao.
Liu Li was not surprised by Suo Mao's appearance at all. Although he was also an Empyrean level powerhouse, in this Flying Star Sect, he simply could not resist the orders of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion.
With Suo Mao following him, it wouldn't be long before Yuan Chao appeared.
"Huh?"
Liu Li's mind raced, but her speed did not slow down in the slightest. After a while, Liu Li seemed to have sensed something. Her delicate body slightly paused, and a thin jade piece appeared in her palm. It was sparkling and emitted a strong sense of spirituality. A hint of pleasant surprise burst out from Liu Li's eyes as she hurriedly sensed it.
Not long later, a happy smile appeared on Liu Li's face. Then, she let out a light sigh of relief.
What she had just received was the message from Tang Huan.
Tang Huan told her that he had suffered some injuries when he got rid of Yuan Chao and left the Clear Void Dao Pavilion. He was currently hiding at the eastern seashore of the Flying Star Sect to recuperate, so she did not have to worry.
This time, she was truly relieved.
For Tang Huan to be able to send a message to her, it could be seen that she was indeed out of danger, and the actions of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion had indeed confirmed this point. Even though Yuan Chao's deductions were astonishing, it was obvious that he was helpless against Tang Huan's whereabouts. Otherwise, the Flying Star Sect would not have caused such a huge commotion.
Since Tang Huan was safe and sound, then, she had to think of a way to get rid of the danger she was about to face.
Putting away the jade piece, the corner of Liu Li's mouth curled up into a crafty smile.
Since she dared to enter the Flying Star Sect so openly, she naturally believed in her own ability to protect herself. Furthermore, the main reason she did this was to attract the attention of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion, especially Yuan Chao, in order to reduce, or even completely eliminate, the pressure on Tang Huan's side.
After a while, a dense white and green aura continuously seeped out from the Glass Palm, constantly distorting and fluctuating.
In the blink of an eye, a palm-sized leaf condensed and took shape.
Not long after, the leaf turned into a shadow and covered Liu Li's body. Following that, a white and green aura appeared from her palm and actually condensed into a new leaf. There was no aura at all as it seeped out from this strange leaf.
When Liu Li flew past the peak of a mountain, the leaf in her palm floated down and disappeared into the forest below.
Unknowingly, hundreds of thousands of miles had already passed.
"Whoosh!"
A figure suddenly appeared behind Liu Li like a ghost. Then, like a ray of black light, he appeared in front of her, blocking her path.
This person was the Elder of the Clear Void Dao Pavilion, Yuan Chao.
Not long later, another figure quickly appeared several dozen kilometers behind him. He had a sturdy body and a powerful appearance. It was Suo Mao.
"You're finally here."
Liu Li did not pay any attention to Suo Mao behind her. Instead, she looked at Yuan Chao and said with a smile.
"Hand over the communication tool between you and Tang Huan. On account of Qin Xian Ye, this old man can let you go. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave this Flying Star Sect."
Yuan Chao couldn't be bothered to waste his breath and went straight to the point.
"Countless years ago, the people from the Pangu Heaven Sect also said something similar to me. Unfortunately, I am still alive and well, and this time will be no exception."
