Chu Li shook his head.
Nothing good would happen when a Celestial appeared.
The two Celestial were elders with snow-white eyebrows. They stood in front of Chu Li and looked at him with bright eyes. They shook their heads.
Chu Li knew something was wrong when he saw their expressions.
"Seniors, what brings you here today?" Chu Li fist saluted and said, "This is the martial arts field of Crouching Bull Mountain. Are you in the wrong place?"
"I'm Niu Qianjin, a disciple of Crouching Bull Mountain two hundred years ago," a burly elder scoffed.
The other skinny elder said, "I'm Yang Zi Qing, also a disciple of Crouching Bull Mountain."
Chu Li nodded. "Seniors, I'm Zhuge Tian, the new hill master of Crouching Bull Mountain."
"You're the hill master?" Niu Qianjin scoffed. "I'm not the hill master yet, am I?"
Chu Li raised his left hand and extended his index finger. "The previous hill master passed away and passed the position to me. This is the hill master's ring. I'm sure both of you know the rules of Crouching Bull Mountain?"
"Of course, I understand the rules." Niu Qianjin nodded. "The rule of Crouching Bull Mountain is that anyone who wishes to ascend to the position of hill master must accept all challenges from the disciples of Crouching Bull Mountain. Only by winning all the challenges can one ascend to the position. Those who fail to win all the challenges are not qualified to succeed as hill master!"
Chu Li said, "Seems like both of you want to learn from each other?"
"That's right!" Niu Qianjin scoffed.
Chu Li extended his hand. "Please!"
He did not want to waste any more time. Since they wanted to stop him from succeeding, he would just send them to heaven. There was no point in talking to these Celestial Beings.
Niu Qianjin's body suddenly lit up. He broke the seal and used his secret skill.
He knew that Zhuge Tian was a genius. He did not want to fail miserably, so he gave it his all.
Chu Li's sword flashed and pierced Niu Qianjin's heart. He pulled out his sword and retreated. He looked at Yang Zi Qing.
Niu Qianjin held his chest and staggered. He smiled bitterly. "You live up to your reputation!"
Yang Zi Qing retreated and wanted to avoid Chu Li's sword.
Chu Li stepped in front of him. The sword flashed and pierced through his heart.
Yang Zi Qing looked down at his chest and shook his head helplessly. and looked at Niu Qianjin.
Their bodies suddenly shone brightly, and they transformed into two beams of light that shot into the sky.
The Gate of Heaven slowly appeared in the clouds. When the two beams of light rushed to the Gate of Heaven, a gap had already been opened. The two of them didn't look back as they directly entered and disappeared.
Chu Li sheathed his sword and glanced at the crowd below the stage.
Everyone stared at the sky with their mouths agape. They watched as the Divine Gate slowly disappeared into the clouds, then turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li smiled calmly. "Is there any other disciple who wants to give it a try?"
"Young Lord, aren't you being too ruthless?" Hu Huarong scoffed. "After all, he's a senior of our sect."
"They're celestials." Chu Li said coldly, "I want to issue the first Hill Master's Order. All disciples of Crouching Bull Mountain are not allowed to get close to Celestials."
"Young Master …" Hu Huarong frowned.
Chu Li calmly said, "Hill Master!"
"This …" Hu Huarong hesitated.
Chu Li said, "Does Elder Hu also want to challenge me to a duel?"
Hu Huarong met Chu Li's calm gaze, and his expression changed slightly.
Jin Ye sighed to himself.
He knew that no one could stop Chu Li from killing celestials. Not only did these two celestials not stop him from becoming the Hill Master, but they even helped him. It was really frustrating.
He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Junior Brother Hu, the young lord's martial arts is unparalleled. He's indeed worthy of being the Hill Master!"
"Senior Brother Jin …" Hu Huarong quickly said.
Jin Ye said, "Greetings, Hill Master!"
He knew that with Zhuge Tian's ruthlessness, if they continued to go against him, Zhuge Tian could really use this as an excuse to duel and take the opportunity to kill or cripple them. Now that things had come to this, they could only go with the flow.
Hu Huarong opened his mouth but could not say anything.
Chu Li smiled. "Elder Xia, Elder Murong, I'll leave the enthronement ceremony to you two!"
"Yes!" Xia Liyan and Murong Chun closed fist saluted.
Chu Li nodded. "It's decided then. Let's start talking about the Crouching Bull Insight."
The crowd had yet to react, but when they heard the words' Crouching Bull Insight ', they could not help but feel refreshed.
Chu Li continued to talk about the second picture of the Crouching Bull Insight.
The crowd's attention was quickly attracted. They stared at him without blinking and pricked up their ears, afraid to miss a word.
—
Chu Li suddenly appeared in the Divine Light Basilica.
There was no one else in the basilica. Sun Mingyue was reading the dossier behind the table. Li Meng stood beside her, watching how Master would handle the dossier.
Sun Mingyue looked up.
She was dressed in a snow-white robe and her face was covered with a white veil, revealing only a pair of bright eyes. She looked at him with a faint smile.
Chu Li smiled.
Li Meng closed fist saluted. "Master's Junior."
Chu Li nodded. "I'm here for Li Meng."
Sun Mingyue glanced at Li Meng.
Li Meng looked at Chu Li in shock. "Master's Junior is looking for me?"
Chu Li said, "The Blood Dragon Fruit is ripe. You can try it."
"Hurry up and thank Master's Junior Chu!" Sun Mingyue said.
Li Meng quickly thanked him, but her big eyes flashed with confusion. She did not understand.
Chu Li did not say much. "I'll bring her back first."
"It's good to let her stay for a few more days," Sun Mingyue said.
Chu Li smiled and nodded.
Li Meng said, "Master, I'm going to Master's Junior. What about the matter here?"
"Someone will handle it." Sun Mingyue waved her hand. "Go."
"… Yes." Li Meng looked reluctant.
Sun Mingyue glanced at her.
Chu Li smiled and grabbed Li Meng's wrist. He disappeared in a flash and appeared on his own island in the next moment.
As soon as he let go of Li Meng's wrist, Li Meng rushed to Xue Ling happily. "Sister Xue Ling!"
Xue Ling, who was welcoming them, smiled and hugged Li Meng.
Chu Li said, "Has Shiji arrived?"
"Yes, he just arrived," Xue Ling said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Pang Shiji's figure appeared. He strode forward and closed fist saluted. "Master!"
Chu Li waved his hand.
Pang Shiji's aura was vigorous and steady. He had improved a lot. After cultivating his swordsmanship, not only did he not become sharp, but he became more steady. He had mastered the swordsmanship and his comprehension was not too bad. Chu Li was secretly glad.
Xue Ling said, "Madam and Second Lady are here too."
"Mm, let's go and have a look," Chu Li said.
Xue Ling turned around and took out a big wooden box that was about half the height of a person. Li Meng quickly went forward to help.
Pang Shiji wanted to go forward too but he almost touched Li Meng's hand. Li Meng rolled her eyes at him.
Pang Shiji awkwardly took a step back and made way.
Chu Li shook his head. It seemed that the two of them did not get along. There would be trouble in the future.
They arrived in front of a Dragon Blood Tree.
Siao Qi and Siao Shi were already in front of the Dragon Blood Tree. They were looking at the blood-red fruits hanging on the branches.
Each fruit was the size of an apple and was as red as blood. There were faint flashes of scales on them. It did not look like they were going to be eaten. Instead, they would feel nauseous and want to stay away.
Chu Li pointed at the tree. "Shiji, Li Meng, pick one each and eat."
"We're eating this?" Li Meng suddenly looked troubled.
Pang Shiji went forward without hesitation. He picked a fruit and took a bite. His mouth was dry and unpalatable. His expression changed but he insisted on eating. He felt bitter.
Seeing him like this, Li Meng picked one as well. After biting it, her face immediately scrunched up.
Chu Li said, "Eat it quickly. Don't delay!"
"Master's Junior, what is this?" Li Meng asked softly.
Chu Li scoffed. "Little? Gather? Why?
