He was immersed in the wonders of the fifth level of the Dragon Taming Technique, feeling a warm aura. A white figure flashed before him and Sun Mingyue appeared.
Her brows were shrouded in worry as she looked at Chu Li thoughtfully.
Chu Li smiled. "What's wrong?"
He was in a good mood as he smiled. "Is the Holy Church in trouble again?"
Sun Mingyue sighed. "The Holy Church can't hold on much longer. The Great One Palace is really powerful."
Chu Li frowned. "Didn't I tell you their whereabouts? Can't you deal with them?"
Sun Mingyue shook her head. "Although we know their whereabouts and when they will act, we still don't have the upper hand. We often have to deal with three or four of them and we still can't win. We even lost two disciples."
Chu Li asked, "Is there such a big difference?"
Sun Mingyue sighed and said, "They have countless tricks up their sleeves. Their miraculous pills are always unexpected. Often, those who are no match for them will suddenly eat a pill and immediately become as lively as a dragon or a tiger, fearless of death. This has happened many times.
"Hmm …" Chu Li pondered. "Are you going to do it yourself?"
"That's the only way." Sun Mingyue nodded. "You were right. This time, a disciple of the Fu Dynasty's imperial family came to the Li Dynasty. He came to the Great Light Peak and asked to see me."
Chu Li frowned. "Just chase him away."
"I can't chase him away." Sun Mingyue said, "His name is Tang Kun. He has twenty protectors with him and all of them are top-notch Grandmasters. If I don't see him, what will happen to the morale of the Holy Church of Light's disciples?"
"… I'll do it," Chu Li said.
Sun Mingyue shook her head. "What identity will you use?"
"… Zhao Dahe?" Chu Li smiled. "Let Zhao Dahe reappear in the martial arts world?"
Sun Mingyue scoffed. "If you use Zhao Dahe again, you'll easily give yourself away!"
"So what?" Chu Li asked.
Unlike before, he did not have to worry about it.
Sun Mingyue shook her head.
Chu Li said, "How about this? Since he came to bully us, we might as well go against him and beat him up to boost the Holy Church of Light's morale."
"… You want to fight Tang Xu?" Sun Mingyue immediately knew what he was thinking.
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Even though he couldn't join forces with the Evil Dark Dragon, he could still join forces with Sun Mingyue. Now that his cultivation base was higher, when they joined forces, the two of them were even more powerful than before, unless Tang Xu was as powerful as Tang Haotian.
Sun Mingyue said, "Since it's like that, then let's do it!"
If they did not take action now, would the Holy Church of Light really become weak? The morale of the Great Light Peak was low, and the people of the Great Light Peak were scattered. There would be no end to their troubles in the future. They had to get through this hurdle first.
Chu Li felt that all of this was because of him. If Sun Mingyue had not helped him deal with Tang Haotian, he would not have been in such trouble today. He was duty-bound to help her. Moreover, the Holy Church of Light was one of the things he could rely on. He still needed the disciples of the Holy Church of Light to help him search for Spirit Medicine.

A tent had been set up in a forest at the foot of the Great Light Peak. The interior of the tent was extravagant and majestic. The furniture was made of gold and the bed was made of tiger skin. It was an extremely extravagant sight. Twenty top-notch Grandmasters were accompanying the tent.
A young man in a bright yellow robe stood outside the tent. His face was as pale as a sheet of paper as if he had yet to recover from a serious illness. His entire body was sickly as if he could be blown away by a gust of wind. He coughed from time to time.
"Your Royal Highness, it's better for you to go in and rest," a round-faced elder came forward and said in a low voice. His voice was filled with concern.
Tang Kun waved his hand and looked at the sky. "The weather today isn't very good. My body is getting worse. I don't know how many years I can last."
"Your Royal Highness, you don't have to say such depressing words." The round-faced elder hurriedly said, "Your Royal Highness, as long as you recuperate well, you'll definitely reach the end of your lifespan. Moreover, Your Royal Highness is blessed by the heavens. If you take another step forward, you might even surpass the lifespan of mortals!"
"Hehe …" Tang Kun laughed. Suddenly, he started coughing violently.
The round-faced elder, Tang Li, hurriedly went forward and pressed on his back, sending a surge of inner energy over.
As his coughing slowly subsided, Tang Kun waved his hand and pushed his arm away. He sighed. "I'd rather die than live!"
"Your Royal Highness, please don't say such depressing words," Tang Li hurriedly said.
Tang Kun laughed. "This half-crippled body of mine still has some use. If I were to die in the hands of Sun Mingyue this time, it would be a good story. I'd rather choose to die this way. I heard that this Sun Mingyue is an outstanding beauty. She's a rare beauty in the world."
"Your Royal Highness!" Tang Li hurriedly said. "I'm just here to tease Sun Mingyue. Why are you talking about death? No matter how strong Sun Mingyue is, she'll never be a match for you, Your Royal Highness."
"You old fool!" Tang Kun pointed at him and laughed. "You're always saying nice things to fool me."
"Bam bam bam bam …" A series of muffled sounds were heard.
"There's an assassin!" Someone shouted.
Suddenly, more than ten Grandmasters surrounded Tang Kun and Tang Li. Their bodies tensed up.
A white shadow flashed past like a white silk that went around them. Soon after, these Grandmasters flew up one after another. Those who could not block the attack revealed Tang Kun and Tang Li who were standing in the middle.
The white shadow turned into a human figure. It was Chu Li and Sun Mingyue who were dressed in white robes.
Chu Li looked at the two of them and shook his head. "Why did you do this? You people from the Fu Dynasty shouldn't be using such petty tricks. You're so petty!"
"You're Chu Li?" Tang Kun looked at him calmly. His calm gaze was tinged with curiosity as he looked him up and down.
Chu Li nodded and smiled. "You're Tang Kun, the sixth prince. It seems that Your Royal Highness isn't favored by the new Emperor. You've been assigned this task."
"Yes." Tang Kun nodded. "My brother and I have always been at odds, so I came here to meet you, a legendary figure. It's true that hearing about you is not as good as meeting you in person. The Saint is indeed beautiful!"
As he spoke, he looked at Sun Mingyue with a smile.
Sun Mingyue stood side by side with Chu Li. She only revealed a pair of bright eyes that glowed like pearls. She looked at him indifferently without saying a word. She did not react to his words at all. It was as if she was looking at a dead man.
Chu Li asked, "Your Royal Highness, do you have any last words?"
"Yes," Tang Kun replied. "I only have one wish, and that is to die in the hands of the Saint."
Sun Mingyue said, "I'll fulfill your wish."
Chu Li smiled. "Your Royal Highness, don't you want to live anymore?"
Tang Kun smiled faintly. "Since all of you are here, it means that you've seen through my brother's tricks. I can't possibly listen to you and go back obediently. In that case, I'll have to fight with all of you. My body will be crippled if I don't fight. I'll be crippled with just a touch, so it's better for all of you to just kill me. Otherwise, there'll be endless trouble, am I right?"
"Your Royal Highness is very open-minded." Chu Li smiled.
He could see the shadow of Siao Shi in Tang Kun, who was very indifferent to life and death.
Tang Kun said, "Saint, please —!"
Tang Li said in a low voice, "Your Royal Highness!"
Tang Kun waved his hand and said, "Let me fight to my heart's content. Dying in the hands of a stunning beauty will be an elegant thing to do. It'll feel good!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he appeared in front of Sun Mingyue in a flash. His movements were incredibly fast, and he stretched out his fingers like a dragon's claw.
Sun Mingyue disappeared from where she stood.
