Chu Li muttered, "My Senior Brother has summoned me back for punishment. I'll have to face the wall for at least half a year."
"It's because of Zhong Wancheng's matter, isn't it?" Sun Mingyue was exceptionally intelligent and instantly understood. She sighed, "I've implicated you."
"What are you talking about!" Chu Li could not help but laugh. "It's only half a year. It'll pass in the blink of an eye. When I come out of Isolated Cultivation, you'll become an Enlightened Master too."
Sun Mingyue shook her head.
Both of them were going into closed-door training. One was going to be punished, while the other was going to become an Enlightened Deity. After both of them came out of closed-door training, one became an Enlightened Deity, while the other still had to struggle on the path of becoming an Enlightened Deity. Her emotions were indescribably complicated, and she did not know what to say.
Chu Li smiled. "Everyone has their own path. You've always been ahead of me."
Sun Mingyue said softly, "I don't know how to teach this little girl Li Meng. I'm not good at teaching others."
Chu Li smiled and said, "As a master, most of the time, I teach by example. How about this, I'll see if she can come out. If she can come out to take a breather while she's facing the wall, I'll help her build her foundation. I still have some understanding of the Great Light Scripture."
Sun Mingyue smiled. "Combining the strengths of both sides, she will definitely surpass me."
Chu Li smiled and did not break her beautiful wish.
Li Meng's temperament and aptitude were not as good as Sun Mingyue's, but there were no absolutes in the world. Just like his original aptitude, it was even worse than an ordinary person's. Later on, he obtained the Life and Death Scripture and combined it with the supernatural powers of Buddhism, which allowed him to advance by leaps and bounds to where he was today.
The two of them fell silent.
Chu Li did not know what to say, and so did Sun Mingyue. She felt an inexplicable melancholy that she could not put into words, but she did not want to separate like this either.
He didn't know what the situation would be like when they met again after separating.
Chu Li broke the silence and smiled. "Alright then, I'll make a move first."
"… Okay." Sun Mingyue nodded.
Chu Li smiled at her and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Sun Mingyue stared at the spot where he had disappeared. After a while, she sighed and withdrew her gaze. Her figure flashed, and she quickly caught up to Li Meng and Song Wanqing.
Song Wanqing said, "This time, it's all thanks to his help."
Sun Mingyue nodded silently.
Song Wanqing didn't say anything else. She knew that her disciple didn't feel good.
Li Meng asked curiously, "Master, do you really like Brother Chu?"
Sun Mingyue frowned and glared at her.
Li Meng shrunk her neck and stuck out her tongue.
Feeling her master's ice-cold gaze, she was so scared that she didn't dare to speak.
Song Wanqing said, "Mingyue, don't scare Xiao Meng!"
Sun Mingyue shook her head and said nothing.
She could not understand why such a strict master would be so lenient towards Li Meng. It was as if he had become a completely different person. Could it be that his temperament would change before he ascended to the heavens?
Song Wanqing helplessly looked at Sun Mingyue, as if she could see herself back then. She was also this strict with Sun Mingyue, as if she had experienced a reincarnation, and was about to ascend to the heavens and leave this world. She would only see her again after sixty years.
Sun Mingyue said, "Master, I want to ask Chu Li to help me teach Xiao Meng."
"He agreed?" Song Wanqing asked.
She thought it was a good idea.
When it came to intelligence and scheming, Chu Li was better than his disciple. His way of doing things was better than others. It was not by luck that he had grown from a mediocre Scribe of the Public House to a top-notch figure whose name was known throughout the world. It was best to let Xiao Meng receive his influence and broaden her horizons.
Xiao Meng's previous life was too simple. Her heart was as pure as a piece of white paper, and her mind was simple as well. After being influenced by Chu Li, she would improve greatly, which would be beneficial to her future.
"Because of what happened to Zhong Wancheng, he will be punished by the mountain rules of Goddess Attraction Mountain. He will have to face the wall for at least half a year. I don't know if he will have the chance." Sun Mingyue said, "If he has the chance, he will come out and teach Xiao Meng."
"Master, why do you want him to teach me?" Li Meng hurriedly shouted.
Sun Mingyue gave her a sidelong glance.
Li Meng hurriedly closed her red lips again.
Song Wanqing smiled and said, "Xiao Meng, this is a rare opportunity. If it wasn't for your master, Chu Li would not care about this. You have to learn from Chu Li. You should know about his matters."
Li Meng shook her head and said, "What matters?"
"His background is very poor, from the House of High Duke …" Song Wanqing patiently told her everything.
Li Meng was surprised and said, "So he was a Scribe of the Public House. Isn't he the Prince Consort of the Public House?"
"That's a matter for the future." Song Wanqing said, "In short, his experiences are legendary. Think about it, if you were in his shoes, would you be able to do this?"
"… No." Li Meng shook her head.
Song Wanqing said, "Extraordinary people have extraordinary things. There's no harm in learning from him, is there?"
"Yes." Li Meng nodded obediently.
When she heard about Chu Li's background and experiences, she felt that it was an eye-opener. She felt that she had underestimated him and judged him by his appearance. It was time for her to learn from Chu Li.
Sun Mingyue could see through people's hearts. When she saw that Li Meng had quickly corrected her mentality, she was quite satisfied and said, "Let him teach you the Great Light Scripture."
Song Wanqing glanced at Sun Mingyue.
Sun Mingyue said, "Master, Chu Li was born in Buddhism. His dharmic base cultivation level is profound, and his understanding of the Great Light Scripture is better than mine. It'll be better for him to build a foundation for Xiao Meng than for me."
"Yes, that's true." Song Wanqing nodded lightly.
Li Meng was also a little curious about how Chu Li would teach her.

Chu Li brought Xiao Qi to Goddess Attraction Mountain and met Zhou Dunli.
Zhou Dunli was waiting for him. After Xiao Qi greeted him, he stroked his beard and smiled. "Good, you came back just in time. I'll be going back soon. I won't be able to wait for you in two days."
He looked at Xiao Qi. She had fair skin and was delicate and elegant. She was a rare woman in the world. His disciple was indeed blessed.
"Master, what do you want me to do?" Chu Li asked.
Zhou Dunli said, "You didn't do a good job this time. You've been caught, so you can only be punished. Face the wall for half a year."
"Yes." Chu Li nodded helplessly.
"You'll begin isolated cultivation in two days. The Seeing Heart Sect will supervise you. The mountain rules are the mountain rules. If you can avoid them, I have nothing to say. However, you can't, so you can only follow the rules. You can't be lazy."
"Master, I'll leave halfway …"
"No." Zhou Dunli shook his head.
Chu Li sighed. "Yes, my wife will be with me …"
"That's fine." Zhou Dunli said, "You can't leave Goddess Attraction Mountain's Heaven Reaching Cliff for half a year."
"Yes." Chu Li nodded.
Zhou Dunli said, "If there's anything you haven't settled, quickly settle it. You'll begin isolated cultivation at Heaven Reaching Cliff in two days!"
"Yes." Chu Li gave a fist salute and bowed solemnly.
He did not ask Zhou Dunli for help and helped to deal with the Spirit Devouring Turtle.
If he could not handle such a small matter and asked his master for help, what kind of person would he be?
Zhou Dunli smiled gently at Xiao Qi. "This useless disciple is very tiring. It's rare that you can tolerate him."
Xiao Qi smiled and shook her head.
Zhou Dunli glared at Chu Li and whistled. Soon, a dragon's roar was heard from outside. Zhou Dunli glided out of the basilica and went straight to the golden dragon. Then, the golden dragon disappeared among the clouds.
Chu Li sighed helplessly. He should have known it would be so strict. The mountain rules were not child's play.
