Li Xinghe closed fist saluted and left.
Tang Hui watched him leave with an extremely gloomy expression.
"Your Majesty …" Luo Feng said softly. His tall and burly body bowed slightly with an indescribable sense of respect.
"Say what you want!" Tang Hui scoffed.
Luo Feng said, "Will Your Majesty also send someone over to Chu Li's side? After all, we're asking for Chu Li's help. Even if Chu Li wants to agree, he'll lose face and may not be willing. "
"You want me to personally invite Chu Li, right?" Tang Hui turned and glared at him.
Luo Feng bowed. "Your Majesty is wise."
"Hmph, you want me to personally invite this enemy?" Tang Hui looked at him coldly.
Luo Feng bowed and remained motionless.
Tang Hui frowned and stared at him without blinking.
Luo Feng was like a statue. His breathing seemed to have stopped.
The basilica was so quiet that it seemed like time had stopped flowing.
After a while, Tang Hui took a deep breath and scoffed. "Fine, you're right. I'll go personally!"
"Your Majesty is broad-minded and loves the people like your own children. I'm very fortunate. The people of the Fu Dynasty are very fortunate!" Luo Feng bowed and shouted in a deep voice.
Tang Hui waved his hand. "Stop flattering me. My martial arts isn't strong enough, so I can only let go of my pride!"
"Your Majesty, how can one live in this world without asking for help from others?" Luo Feng shook his head. "It's not for personal gain but for the people of the world to ask for help. This is not only not a disgrace, but a great honor. I'm very grateful and impressed!"
Tang Hui's expression softened. He scoffed. "I hope others think the same. I'm leaving!"
He turned and left. When he arrived at the open space outside the basilica, there were no guards or maids around. He suddenly disappeared.
Luo Feng heaved a sigh of relief and stood up. His back was already covered in a layer of cold sweat.
He was too impulsive just now and took such a big risk. If His Majesty was really narrow-minded, he might just be furious and kill him. Even if his martial arts were strong and his status was high, it would be useless.
He shook his head and looked toward the east. Chu Li was still living freely.
—
As soon as Tang Hui appeared outside Chong Ming Town, he stopped and looked at the void with a frown.
"Amitabha …" A Buddhist chant came from the void, and a young monk in a gray robe slowly appeared. He was handsome, and his head shone brightly under the sunlight. His eyes were calm and composed.
Fa Yuan stepped into the void, his grey monk robe fluttering in the wind. He looked as handsome as jade.
"Amitabha!" Another Buddhist chant was heard. Then, a monk dressed in a bright yellow gown appeared in the void. He looked young and had a peaceful expression. He was the current Emperor of the Ji Dynasty, Xu An.
Fa Yuan and Xu An looked at each other and pressed their palms together. Then, they looked at Tang Hui who was standing in the void.
"Amitabha!" Fa Yuan pressed his palms together and said, "Your Majesty, what brings you here today?"
"Master Fa Yuan, right?" Tang Hui said calmly, "I'm here to look for Chu Li. I have something to discuss with him, not to kill him. Great Master, you don't have to be so careful!"
Fa Yuan said slowly, "Brother Chu is currently in isolated cultivation and will not be receiving any guests. Your Majesty, you have made a wasted trip."
Tang Hui said, "There's an urgent matter. I'm afraid I'll have to disturb Chu Li's isolated cultivation."
"What's the matter? Can you tell me about it?" Fa Yuan looked at Xu An.
Xu An nodded. "The Head Chief is indeed not in a position to receive guests."
Tang Hui frowned and looked at the two of them. He scoffed and said slowly, "Very well. Both of you should know about this. Several groups of Asuras have appeared in the Fu Dynasty. They massacred dozens of cities and towns, and no one survived. If it wasn't for the Stargazing Pavilion deducing that it was them, I wouldn't have been so sure."
"Asuras?" Fa Yuan and Xu An frowned.
Fa Yuan said, "Could it be the Asuras that descended from the Outland?"
"Exactly." Tang Hui said in a low voice, "I feel that the purpose of these Asuras is to kill people. I can't split myself into two and can't annihilate all the Asuras. I need to ask for help … If both of you are free, why don't you attack together with Chu Li? If there are Asuras in the Ji Dynasty, I'll attack as well."
He had already thought it through. In order to destroy the Asuras, the Enlightened Masters of the six nations needed to attack together.
The Celestials were no match for the Asuras. Otherwise, they would not have been forced to this state. Therefore, they could not rely on them. They could only rely on the Enlightened Masters.
The Enlightened Masters had a strong sense of territory. If it was not necessary, they would not appear in other nations. Otherwise, it would easily cause a war. The harm was too great. Therefore, they restrained themselves and tried to avoid conflict.
Letting other Enlightened Masters enter his own nation would always be a little uncomfortable. He wanted to be the first to break this. This was the only way for the people. The Celestials could be used but not relied on. The Celestials did not care about the lives of the people.
"I admire you!" Monk Fa Yuan saw through Tang Hui's thoughts at once.
To be able to condescend to beg Chu Li for the sake of the people and even invite other Enlightened Masters to go to the nation, his breadth of mind was indeed admirable.
Xu An bowed and said slowly, "I can promise to help. As for the Head Chief, he is indeed in isolated cultivation. It's a critical moment. It's better not to disturb him. What do you think, Master Fa Yuan?"
Fa Yuan bowed. "I will do my best."
"Thank you, both of you!" Tang Hui said in a low voice. "However, once the Asuras appear, I'm afraid they will be like the Celestials. There will be a storm. There will not only be a few of them, but they will be everywhere in the world. Without Chu Li …"
"Your Majesty, why don't you ask the other Enlightened Masters to attack together?" Fa Yuan said. "Then let the Stargazing Pavilion point out the location of these Asuras. In this way, we don't need Chu Li to destroy them!"
"Exactly," Xu An said.
Both of them felt that although the Asuras were strong, they would not be stronger than them. This kind of thing did not need Chu Li to personally take action. They could solve it. Moreover, it would be best if they could form the cooperation of the Enlightened Masters under Tang Hui's leadership.
"Alright!" Tang Hui nodded slowly.
This was also a pleasant surprise.
It would be best if they did not ask Chu Li. He did not want to ask Chu Li the most. Now that he could gather the help of two Enlightened Masters, he believed that he could persuade them to go to the other nations. After all, he had Fa Yuan and Xu An in front of him.
If the Enlightened Masters of the six nations could not defeat the Asuras, then there was really no other way. It would be useless to ask Chu Li.
"When will you act, Your Majesty?" Fa Yuan asked.
"I will immediately contact the other Enlightened Masters," Tang Hui said. "Once I've convinced them, I will come back to ask for your help."
"Very well." Xu An nodded slowly.
Tang Hui bowed to the two of them with pressed palms and disappeared into the void.
Fa Yuan turned to look in the direction of Chong Ming Town and smiled at Xu An. "Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
"Great Master, please —!" Xu An pressed his palms together.
The two of them disappeared into the void.
The Titanium Temple and the Tempest Temple were both Buddhist sects, but they had completely different cultivation methods. Therefore, both of them did not interact with each other. Even for Chu Li's sake, Xu An and Fa Yuan would not be too close. They were only acquaintances who nodded at each other.
Tang Hui quickly contacted the other Enlightened Masters and they all agreed to attack the Asuras. Even if the Grandmasters did not say anything, they would not refuse. The Asuras and humans were considered natural enemies, so they would never compromise.
Fa Yuan, Xu An, and the other Enlightened Masters appeared outside the Stargazing Pavilion.
Li Xinghe personally came out to welcome them and brought them into the Stargazing Pavilion. Then, he deduced the location of the Asuras.
