As Chu Li held the Star Stone, he felt his Heavenly Star Insight Skill circulating rapidly, wanting to devour it.
He quickly stopped the circulation of the Heavenly Star Insight Skill to prevent it from devouring the Star Stone.
He could not wait to devour it, but he could not do it now, especially in front of Deng Lu.
Deng Lu quickly reached out to help the old man up, and a wisp of inner energy entered his body to help him heal. At the same time, he took out a jade bottle, opened the cork, and poured out two crimson pills, which he stuffed into the old man's mouth.
Blood was still gushing out of the old man's mouth, and he was about to spit out the pills when Deng Lu quickly tapped his chest twice. The blood that was gushing out stopped, and the old man swallowed the spirit pills along with the blood.
Chu Li sized up the old man and watched as a strange force surged out of his stomach and quickly circulated through his body. It expelled the chaotic force, suppressed the surging blood, and quickly calmed his body.
This spirit pill was indeed extraordinary to be able to suppress such serious injuries.
Deng Lu's inner energy also quickly entered and combined with the power of the spirit pill, forming an even more mysterious force that quickly nourished the old man's body. His already deteriorating organs were rapidly recovering their vitality.
Fifteen minutes later, Deng Lu released his hand and allowed the old man to sit cross-legged and circulate his energy. White steam rose from the top of their heads as if they were sweating profusely.
Chu Li and Sun Mingyue did not leave and only watched from the side.
Seeing Deng Lu release his hand and stand up, Chu Li smiled and said, "As expected of Mount Spirit Wonder. The spirit pill is extraordinary. I originally planned to let him rest in bed for a few months, but I didn't expect him to recover so quickly. I'm impressed!"
"I'm more impressed by Young Master Chu's cultivation level." Deng Lu shook his head and said solemnly, "Hearing about you is not as good as meeting you in person. I've been disrespectful."
He was shocked by the depth of Chu Li's cultivation level.
In just a short period of time, Uncle Jing had been severely injured to such an extent. If he did not plead for leniency this time and did not use the Star Stones in exchange, Uncle Jing would definitely die. His martial arts might even be crippled, and his body would also be crippled. Then, he would not be able to live for more than a few days.
At first, he thought that Chu Li was just an Enlightened Master from the Lower Realm. No matter how strong he was, he was only a Rank One Celestial Recognition Master. Although he was able to kill the Great Asuras, it was all thanks to the efforts of the Taiyue Hall. Chu Li was just lucky. As for the four Great Asuras from the Lower Realm, most of them were killed by Sun Mingyue, who sacrificed herself to bring the Great Asuras down with her.
However, when he saw Uncle Jing's injuries, he realized that he had underestimated Chu Li. If they were to really fight, he really had no confidence.
He would not make a move if he was not confident. This was his principle, so even if he was filled with anger and murderous intent, he would still not make a move. He could only get to know Chu Li well first. It would be best if he could befriend him and then deal a fatal blow at a critical moment.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Then there's no problem now, Young Master Deng can rest assured."
"Yes." Deng Lu smiled and said, "Young Master Chu, are you staying in the Outland?"
Chu Li smiled and said, "The Asuras below are about to launch a large-scale invasion. I'm going to deal with them down there."
Deng Lu sighed and shook his head. "These Asuras really deserve to be killed. They're causing trouble in the world. It's best to kill them all. These creatures that exist for killing should not be left in the world."
Chu Li said, "With the help of a Celestial Being, we should be able to defeat them. If the combined forces of the two realms can't deal with them, then there's really no hope. We'll all become ghosts under the blades of the Asuras!"
"Yes, yes." Deng Lu sighed and said, "It's a pity that I can't descend and help Young Master Chu."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Young Master Deng is such an important person. How can you make a move unless it's a critical moment? We'll be the vanguard."
The two of them spoke hypocritically. Sun Mingyue shook her head and said, "It's getting late. I should take my leave."
Chu Li looked up at the sky and smiled. "It's getting late, I should take my leave."
"Then I'll take my leave." Deng Lu closed fist saluted and smiled at Sun Mingyue. "Miss Sun, please excuse me."
Sun Mingyue waved her hand.
Deng Lu helped the old man up and the two of them fluttered away.
"This guy is really hypocritical." Sun Mingyue said, "He has a honeyed mouth and a dagger in his heart. I really want to finish him off with a punch."
She could see that Deng Lu was smiling, but his heart was filled with malice. He wanted to find a chance to deal with Chu Li. If it was someone else, he would have succeeded and killed him.
Such a hypocritical person was more annoying than a simple evil person. They wanted to kill him even more.
Chu Li smiled and said, "As the Young Hill Master, this performance is passable. He can't just shout and kill. This method is more skillful. It's a pity that he met us. He's unlucky."
"He'll eventually meet a ghost if he walks too much at night!" Sun Mingyue said.
Chu Li said, "We still have to be careful of this guy. We can't be careless. His martial arts is good too."
"He doesn't dare to fight me," Sun Mingyue said, "Although Spirit Wonder Mountain is strong, it's weaker than Great Light Surpassing State. He doesn't have the guts."
The more hypocritical a person was, the more cowardly they would be, and the more they would not dare to act recklessly. They would be extremely cautious in their actions, and they would not make a move unless they were absolutely confident, lest they suffer a fierce backlash. This time, Chu Li had heavily injured the old man, and it was a wake-up call for them.
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Sun Mingyue was very good at reading people. She had seen through Deng Lu.
Deng Lu fluttered away with the old man. After walking for ten miles, he stopped in a forest and sat on the ground. He did not care about his flawless white robe and let the old man sit cross-legged first. He sat behind the old man and pressed his palms on his back. The two of them channeled again and soon, white steam rose from the top of their heads.
After an hour, he released his palms and let out a long sigh.
The old man also let out a long sigh and exhaled a murky black gas that hit the bushes in front of him.
All the trees and weeds that came into contact with the black gas quickly withered and died in the blink of an eye.
"Young Master, Chu Li is so powerful!" The old man's voice was hoarse and low. "We can't fight him."
"How powerful is he?" Deng Lu asked coldly.
His feminine red lips were tightly pursed and the corners of his mouth were curled downwards. His temperament suddenly became ruthless and cold.
The old man sighed. "Young Master, you can't even take one move from him."
"Is he really that powerful?" Deng Lu frowned.
The old man smiled bitterly. "I didn't expect him to be so powerful, especially his palm energy. It's as if he has his own soul. It's really strange. This time, he was merciful. Otherwise, my soul would have died."
"How can we kill him?" Deng Lu asked coldly.
The old man thought about it and shook his head. "I can't think of a way. Even if the Hill Master takes action personally, I'm afraid he won't be able to defeat him!"
Deng Lu stared into his eyes as if trying to discern the truth. "If that's the case, we can't attack him?"
The old man shook his head slowly. "Avoiding him is the best plan, or we can kill him with a borrowed knife. Let's not do it ourselves and don't expose ourselves. Young Master, you didn't expose your killing intent. That's the most brilliant move!"
Deng Lu scoffed and smiled. "Even if you want to kill, you must kill with a smile. That's the highest realm of killing!"
"Killing without leaving a trace is the strongest." The old man nodded in agreement. "He has Sun Mingyue by force, so he'll definitely get into big trouble. There's no need for us to do it ourselves."
"Let's wait and see," Deng Lu said in a low voice.
