Chu Li stood where he was and looked at Cao Xian. He did not want to kill him unless he had no other choice.
He had entered the Heaven Secret Pavilion and the Stargazing Pavilion. He had dealt with the Church of the Divine Blood and knew how powerful the eight major sects were. The Sword Moon Sect would not be too weak. They might have some secret techniques that could catch up to him.
Fortunately, he had the Heavenly Heart Art and the Stellar Stone to protect him. Even if others tried to divine him, they would not be able to find him.
This Cao Xian was vicious, and if he was left alive, he would be a scourge. Who knew how many people he would harm in the future? Killing him would be acting on behalf of the heavens. At this moment, his thoughts were clear and clear, and he felt that his comprehension of the Heavenly Heart Sutra had deepened.
Under the suppression of the Star Stone, the progress of his Heavenly Heart Manual was extremely slow. He had been stuck at the ninth level for a long time and was unable to advance any further. He did not expect that killing this Cao Xian would allow his Heavenly Heart Manual to advance a little. It seemed that if he wanted to advance his Heavenly Heart Manual, he could not blindly cultivate in seclusion. Cultivating his heart was the shortcut.
He thought about it carefully and shook his head helplessly.
In this world, no matter how powerful a person was, it was impossible for them to do everything they wanted. Even a Heavenly Deity was bound by the heavenly rules, let alone the rest of the people who were bound by endless restrictions.
He stood beside Cao Xian and muttered to himself for a while before smiling. It was imperative that he enter Goddess Attraction Mountain to learn the Art of Dragon Control. If he did not become an Enlightened Master, he would never be free. If he could not do as he pleased, there was no meaning to living.
According to Li Xinghe, he would only have a chance if he perfected the Heavenly Heart Art. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the chance to cultivate the Dragon Control Art even if he entered Immortal Attraction Mountain.
He could not cultivate the Heavenly Heart Technique when he was in the Ji Dynasty. King An's Imperial Residence and the High Duke's Public House had tied him down so that he could not do as he pleased. However, he could do as he pleased in the Holy Church of Light. This was a great opportunity.
He returned to King An's Imperial Residence and spoke to Xiao Qi for a while. Then, he disappeared in a flash and appeared at the Falling Autumn City's branch.
For the next few days, he spent his time cultivating in the Falling Autumn City branch. There were only four disciples of the Holy Church of Light in the branch. They were tasked with gathering information, delivering food and drinks to him, and relaying information to the Great Light Peak.
Early in the morning, the air was fresh and pleasant.
He was practicing his swordsmanship on the branch's training field when he suddenly heard footsteps. A slender and graceful figure appeared on the training field. Dressed in a light yellow gown, she was graceful and elegant, looking at him with a smile.
Chu Li halted his sword and looked over. He smiled and said, "Miss Yue Ru!"
Yue Ru gracefully approached him, bringing with her a faint fragrance. She smiled and curtsied. "How have you been, Big Brother Zhao?"
Chu Li smiled. "I'm just wasting my time and accomplishing nothing."
Yue Ru shook her head and smiled. "I've heard about Big Brother Zhao's magnificent feat from my master. As expected of Big Brother Zhao."
Chu Li gestured with his hand, and the two of them went to the gazebo to talk.
A tall and burly disciple of the Holy Church of Light entered the gazebo with a teacup in his hand. He placed the teacup down gently before he left.
Yue Ru picked up her teacup and took a sip. She sighed and said, "Big Brother Zhao, are you waiting for the Reincarnation Temple and the others to seek revenge?"
Chu Li nodded. "I'll definitely come for revenge. Miss Yue Ru, why are you here?"
"I have something to report to Master." With a bright smile on her face, Yue Ru stared intently at him with her bright eyes. "Big Brother Zhao, the Reincarnation Temple is very difficult to deal with. There are many hidden talents there. You must be careful!"
Chu Li chuckled. "I was just about to experience the antique study of the Reincarnation Temple. Yue Ru, you'd better leave as soon as possible."
"Will Big Brother Zhao return to Gale City?" Yue Ru asked.
Chu Li nodded and said, "I'm still the Branch Leader of Gale City. I'll return once I'm done here."
"That's good." Yue Ru smiled sweetly. "Then, I'll wait for Big Brother Zhao to return."
Chu Li asked, "Did anything happen in Gale City?"
"It's peaceful there." Yue Ru nodded.
"Haha …" A hearty laugh was heard. Monk Zhi Shan's red cowl fluttered in the wind as he descended from the top of the wall. Like a feather, he floated to the gazebo.
Chu Li frowned as he stared at Monk Zhi Shan. He seemed to have become a different person as his inner power had doubled.
Monk Zhi Shan stared at Yue Ru as if he was trying to see through her.
Yue Ru frowned at him before she turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li shook his head and said, "Ignore him. He's a monk from the Reincarnation Temple!"
"He's so young." Yue Ru nodded. "As expected of the Reincarnation Temple!"
"Lady Almsgiver, what's your relationship with Priest Zhao?" Monk Zhi Shan asked with a smile. "You must feel uncomfortable seeing such an ugly fellow, right?"
Yue Ru frowned and glared at him. "Monk, shouldn't monks be unaffected by their looks?"
"Haha … I haven't cultivated to that level yet." Monk Zhi Shan shook his head and laughed. "Such an ugly fellow must be destroyed. Lady, it's better for you to stay away from him."
"Shallow." Yue Ru shook her head.
Chu Li said, "Monk Zhi Shan, it seems like you've had a fortuitous encounter. Not only have you recovered your martial arts, but you've also benefited from your misfortune and improved greatly."
"It's all thanks to you, Priest Zhao!" Monk Zhi Shan's expression darkened as he slowly said, "If Priest Zhao hadn't crippled my martial arts, I wouldn't have been able to comprehend the essence of the unity of void and excess and advance to the next level!"
"I see. It's the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture." Chu Li nodded. "I must congratulate you, monk!"
"I'm very grateful to Priest Zhao." Monk Zhi Shan chuckled and looked at Yue Ru. "I'll definitely repay you in the future!"
He could tell that Chu Li was about to attack him, so he leaped into the air and flew over the top of the wall before disappearing. Although he looked calm and graceful, his speed was surprisingly fast.
Chu Li was about to chase after him when he stopped. He frowned as he saw the other two old monks gliding toward them.
Yue Ru frowned as she looked at Monk Zhi Shan's back. Then, she turned to look at Chu Li. "What's he doing? Is he trying to show off? "
Chu Li nodded.
He could not tell what Monk Zhi Shan was thinking, but he could guess.
Monk Zhi Shan was not a magnanimous person. He would never be grateful to Chu Li, who had crippled his martial arts, for it was a blessing in disguise. Instead, Monk Zhi Shan's actions were extreme. He wanted to fight with Chu Li to the end and seek revenge by any means necessary. He did not want to fight him head-on.
Yue Ru muttered, "How strange."
"Yue Ru, you have to be careful." Chu Li muttered, "Monk Zhi Shan will deal with you."
Yue Ru laughed. "Is he trying to pick a soft spot? Son, do you think I'm easy to bully? "
Chu Li nodded slowly. "You have to be careful. He's cunning and unrestrained by the secular world. He's unscrupulous."
Yue Ru said, "That's great. I'd like to see the antique study of the Reincarnation Temple."
Chu Li took out a jade talisman and handed it to her. "Take this. If there's any danger, crush it and I'll rush over immediately."
"… Thank you, Big Brother Zhao." Yue Ru hesitated for a moment before she accepted the talisman.
Chu Li turned his head and said, "Monks, since you're here, why are you hiding?"
"Namo Amitabha …" Two red-robed monks glided down and chanted the name of Buddha. They pressed their palms together and bowed. "Priest Zhao, please excuse us!"
Chu Li recognized one of them as Yuan Wu, who had a snow-white beard and eyebrows. The other one was a fat monk with a square head and big ears. He was fair and chubby with a ruddy complexion. When he smiled, he looked like Maitreya Buddha.
Chu Li frowned. "Are you here to kill me?"
