"Actually, we can be friends," said Tang Kun with a smile.
Chu Li smiled. "I'm fortunate to have a friend like the Royal Highness."
"It's a pity that we can't be friends because of our identities." Tang Kun shook his head and sighed, "This is the will of the heavens. Don't worry, I will send this Phoenix Soaring Grass over and I won't ask what it is used for."
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "A spirit herb like this can threaten Tang Xu. I'm sure the Royal Highness doesn't believe it either."
"Although this is a spiritual herb, it is actually quite ordinary." Tang Kun nodded and said, "Because of my body, I have devoted myself to studying medicine. This grass is indeed ordinary. It is a bit of a loss to exchange it for my life."
Chu Li smiled and took out a few pieces of white paper from his inner pocket and handed them over. "I have the same intention. Your Royal Highness's life is not that cheap. Bring me these spirit herbs as well."
"You …" Tang Kun pointed at him and smiled helplessly. "You've really fallen into a trap of your own making. Alright, I admit defeat. But Chu Li, you're a smart man. You know where my limits lie."
"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness. All the spirit herbs here were obtained by Your Royal Highness. They're not considered precious," Chu Li said.
Although it was not precious, it was very rare. If he wanted to go to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains to find it, he would have to go through many hardships and dangers. It was best to find it in the Great Fu Dynasty's Imperial Palace.
Tang Kun took the white paper and flipped through it one by one. He nodded in satisfaction and put it away. He smiled and said, "Good, then it's settled. Wait for my good news."
Chu Li extended his hand. "Your Royal Highness, please do as you please. I'll take my leave first!"
As he spoke, he suddenly disappeared.
Tang Kun only felt a flash in front of him and the scenery suddenly changed. He was back in the forest, but this forest was completely different from the forest he had seen before. Looking down at the bonfire they were in, it was in the middle of a pile of rocks.
Tang Li frowned and said, "Your Highness, what trick is he playing? Are you sure you want us to leave?"
Tang Kun smiled. "Since you're letting us go, then let's go. Why be so suspicious?"
"This surnamed Chu doesn't seem like a good person. He won't let us go for nothing." Tang Li snorted and said, "If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have suffered here for so many days."
"Alright, since you lost the bet, go back." Tang Kun waved his hand.
Tang Li nodded bitterly and helped him walk out of the forest.
Everyone's martial arts had been crippled and they had long disappeared. Only the two of them walked out of the forest alone.
Chu Li stood outside the forest and observed Tang Kun's thoughts. He nodded to himself.
This Tang Kun was truly interesting. He didn't have any intention of going back on his word, and indeed wanted to fulfill the deal. His resentment towards Tang Xu was extremely deep, and now he already knew the reason. His current weakness was caused by Tang Xu.
When Tang Xu was ten years old, he pretended to injure him unintentionally. In the end, he was injured in his dantian and kidneys. Both his innate and acquired essence Qi were damaged and couldn't be replenished. As a result, his body was in such a terrible state that he was always sick and unable to recover.
Seeing this, Chu Li felt more at ease and left.

Seven days later, Chu Li stood beside the pool and looked up at the sky with a solemn expression.
Tang Kun found the Phoenix Flight Grass and Chu Li refined a batch of Pure Blood Pills.
He gave the Evil Nether Dragon five pills. After the dragon and human went through a painful struggle, both he and the Evil Nether Dragon became slightly stronger, but there was no new Dragon Qi in its body. The Art of Dragon Control was still at the sixth level.
He frowned and thought hard, feeling helpless.
It was getting harder and harder to advance the Art of Dragon Control. It was like climbing a mountain to the peak. Every step was extremely difficult, and he had to struggle and work hard with all his might. He had used everything he could, but he still couldn't break through to the seventh level.
This was only from the sixth to the seventh level. He didn't know how difficult the remaining two levels would be. Just thinking about it made his scalp go numb.
As he was thinking hard, he suddenly looked up at the sky and saw two white clouds slowly floating down. It was Sun Mingyue and Song Wanqing floating down.
He used the Omniscient Mirror to observe and saw Sun Mingyue's solemn expression. Song Wanqing's face was as pale as paper, and her eyes were dazed. The situation wasn't good.
He couldn't help but be shocked.
Song Wanqing was an Enlightened Master, but she was actually so heavily injured. Who was it?
Only an Enlightened Master could injure an Enlightened Master to this extent.
He directly stepped forward and held Song Wanqing's hand. At the same time, he held Sun Mingyue's, and the two of them immediately connected their auras, transforming into an extremely mellow aura that drilled into Song Wanqing's body, nourishing her almost shattered body.
Song Wanqing was on the verge of death, allowing him to do as he pleased. She forced herself to look at Sun Mingyue, then at Chu Li. She didn't even have the strength to speak, but she could feel the mellow aura recovering her body. It was as if she was soaking in a hot spring, so comfortable that she wanted to sleep.
Sun Mingyue pursed her red lips and didn't say a word. She stared at Song Wanqing, afraid that she would leave.
Chu Li realized that her aura was weak. Even if the two of them worked together, they wouldn't be able to leave much of the mellow aura. To Song Wanqing, it was too little.
Chu Li frowned and said helplessly, "We need the Supreme Diamond Scripture."
"Yes." Sun Mingyue said.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, so they directly brought Sun Mingyue into the secret cave and put Song Wanqing outside. The two of them dug out a rock and entered the cave. They took off their clothes and began to cultivate the Supreme Diamond Scripture.
Sun Mingyue didn't care that her master was outside and devoted herself to cultivation. She quickly replenished her aura and was about to separate when Chu Li said, "Let's cultivate like this."
Sun Mingyue was startled and slowly nodded.
She stretched out her jade-like arm and placed it on the other side of the cave. She pressed it on Song Wanqing's back and poured in a mellow aura.
As time passed, a mellow aura was born from the two of them and poured into Song Wanqing's body, slowly repairing her broken body.
The remaining tyrannical aura in her body was still destroying her internal organs. If it wasn't for their mellow aura being able to suppress it, no amount of spiritual energy would be able to slow down her injuries.
After six hours, the two of them finally separated. Song Wanqing was already able to circulate her mental cultivation method and use her inner energy to heal her injuries.
Song Wanqing had long woken up but pretended not to so that the three of them wouldn't feel awkward.
Chu Li put on his clothes and left quietly. After a while, Sun Mingyue also left the cave and came to his side. She was beautiful and charming, no longer as solemn as before.
Chu Li came to the side of the pool and looked at her.
Sun Mingyue frowned and scoffed. "It's Monk Lun Ming's doing!"
Chu Li was surprised.
Song Wanqing's cultivation level should not be weaker than Monk Lun Ming.
Sun Mingyue said, "There's something strange about the Reincarnation Temple's Wheel Pagoda. Master was plotted against!"
Chu Li slowly nodded.
Sun Mingyue scoffed. "If Master didn't desperately escape, he might have ascended to heaven in the Reincarnation Temple!"
Chu Li frowned and pondered.
Sun Mingyue looked at him. "What did you think of?"
"Could this be Tang Xu's plan?" Chu Li frowned. "If you become an Enlightened Master, will he be able to deal with you?"
"Yes." Sun Mingyue nodded. "But won't we be stronger if we join forces?"
Chu Li sighed. "After you become an Enlightened Master, he might make a move immediately. he's just waiting for the moment you become an Enlightened Master."
Sun Mingyue was dubious.
Chu Li said, "At the same time, he's using the tactic of luring me away so that we can't join forces."
He narrowed his eyes and performed the Heavenly Star Insight Skill.
