Sun Mingyue frowned and sighed. "Maybe it's fate. Fortunately, there are only two volumes."
Chu Li said, "Who knows if there's only the second volume left."
Sun Mingyue rolled her eyes and shook her head. "There's nothing we can do about it."
Chu Li nodded.
Even if he was powerful, he could not do anything about it.
He knew that the most powerful thing in the Grandmaster was not martial arts but treasures. These treasures often had miraculous effects that were even better than martial arts and could turn the tables at critical moments.
Even if he was powerful in martial arts and divine powers, he could not do anything about the treasures.
He hated this feeling.
Chu Li asked, "Is there nothing you can do in your territory?"
These major sects had a long history and a deep foundation. No one knew how many trump cards they had. One trump card could turn the tables at critical moments, so they should not be underestimated. They definitely had a lot of treasures.
Sun Mingyue sighed. "Let the leaders worry about it."
As the two of them were talking, Chu Li suddenly turned his head and looked down the mountain.
A moment later, a middle-aged woman fluttered over and appeared in front of Sun Mingyue's courtyard.
Chu Li and Sun Mingyue were already waiting in the courtyard.
This middle-aged woman was elegant and charming, and her gaze could captivate one's soul.
"Master's Senior Meng." Sun Mingyue closed fist saluted.
Meng Hanxing waved his hand lightly and smiled. "Mingyue, you've done a great job this time!"
Sun Mingyue said, "I still couldn't get the Great Light Scripture back."
"It's good enough that you could do this." Meng Hanxing smiled gently. "I have to thank Chu Li this time!"
Chu Li closed fist saluted. "You're welcome, Senior Meng."
Meng Hanxing said, "We have a Light Pearl that can sense the Great Light Scripture."
Chu Li pondered.
Meng Hanxing smiled. "We also have a Spirit Strengthening Pearl."
She took out a small box and passed it to Chu Li. "I'll lend you the Light Pearl and give you the Spirit Strengthening Pearl."
Chu Li smiled. "How can I do that?"
Sun Mingyue quickly asked, "Can you sense the Great Light Scripture with the Light Pearl?"
"Most likely." Meng Hanxing said, "If the Light Pearl doesn't work, we can only blame our bad luck."
"Then give it a try!" Chu Li understood Sun Mingyue's intention. It seemed that this Spirit Strengthening Orb was no small matter, and she was urging him to accept it.
Meng Hanxing said, "White is the Luminous Pearl."
Chu Li opened the small box. Inside were two pearls the size of longans. One was milky white like a pearl, and the other was as blue as the clear autumn sky.
Meng Hanxing suddenly struck out with his palm, and the Light Pearl suddenly brightened, as if it had turned from a pearl into a crystal bead. It was clear and without any impurities, and it was still purifying, as if it was going to blend into the air.
It gently floated up, left the small box, and flew into the air.
Chu Li picked up the Luminous Pearl and sensed a strange power within it. This strange power was not strong, but it was as pure as hair. It was like silk and strands, and these strands of power seemed to lead to somewhere far away.
Chu Li passed the small box to Sun Mingyue and took out a strand of hair from his inner pocket. He closed his eyes and sensed it.
A moment later, he opened his eyes and nodded. "Found it!"
These strands of pure power led to somewhere, and these places were where the Great Light Scripture was located. Every volume of the Great Light Scripture was connected with a strand of power, and they were all copies of the Great Light Scripture.
Chu Li was secretly amazed. As expected of a large sect with a long history, they had such a treasure that could sense the location of every volume of the Great Light Scripture.
With this in addition to his All-Seeing Heaven and Earth Skill, the two's sensing powers overlapped, allowing him to clearly sense the location of the Great Light Scripture.
This was because the other volumes of the Great Light Scripture were all within the Great Light Boundary, and only this one was outside.
Meng Hanxing was overjoyed, and he smiled like a flower. "Then let's go!"
Chu Li kept the Luminous Pearl in his inner pocket, and reached out to hold Sun Mingyue's hand. Sun Mingyue held Meng Hanxing's hand, and the three of them suddenly disappeared.
They appeared in a large city, in a small alley.
Through the observation of the Omniscient Mirror, this city was unusually prosperous, and there were many masters in the city. Looking further, one could see a continuous mountain range outside the city, and a building halfway up one of the mountains.
Row upon row of pavilions and terraces, with overhanging eaves and hanging walls, revealed a sense of simplicity and vicissitudes. It was obvious that this building had experienced a long time.
Chu Li frowned, and saw a basilica with the words "Lieque" written on it.
Meng Hanxing scanned the surroundings, leaped into the air, and quickly landed, saying softly, "This is Lieque City!"
Sun Mingyue said softly, "Lieque Palace, one of the Nine Divisions?"
The alley they were in was quiet and uninhabited, and the road was paved with white jade slabs, spotless.
The surrounding buildings were medium-sized residences, considered wealthy, but not the area where the wealthy resided, so it was clean and tidy.
Chu Li said, "We have to finish this quickly."
"Otherwise, there will be endless trouble." Meng Hanxing said, "Lieque Palace is very overbearing, they don't care whether we're from the Great Light Surpassing State or not. As long as we fight in the city, we'll be violating their rules."
Sun Mingyue looked at Chu Li.
"Why don't I inform them first?" Chu Li asked.
Meng Hanxing said softly, "That's not appropriate."
Chu Li nodded and said no more. He knew that the Great Light Surpassing State did not want this matter to be publicized, as it would damage their reputation.
"This is a Great Heavenly Demon, but he can hide his cultivation level." Chu Li frowned. "Moreover, he has a treasure weapon. Once we fight, I'm afraid it'll take a long time and attract the people from Lieque Palace. … How about this, you guys go back first, I'll deal with him."
Sun Mingyue said, "Can you handle it?"
"I can borrow the help of Lieque Palace." Chu Li said, "I'm from the Rain Master Palace. If the people from Lieque Palace come and see that it's a Heavenly Demon, they won't let it go, nor will they think much of it."
If Sun Mingyue and Meng Hanxing were here, Lieque Palace would definitely be suspicious, but if he was here, Lieque Palace would not think that Great Light Surpassing State was here.
Meng Hanxing took out a small sword that was about the length of a palm.
"Looks like we can only use this." Meng Hanxing sighed. "Using it will cause a huge commotion. If we fail in one attack, Lieque Palace will definitely come, and we'll be in big trouble."
She was a little hesitant. This move would offend Lieque Palace, and Lieque Palace's way of doing things was very likely to clash with Great Light Surpassing State.
Chu Li pondered and said, "How about this, I'll think of a way to lure him out!"
As he spoke, he walked out as if he was riding the wind. He was silent and extremely fast, and the two women followed closely behind him. Soon, they were out of the city gate and arrived at a forest ten miles away from the city.
Chu Li said, "Senior Meng and Mingyue, please wait for a moment, I'll bring him here."
Meng Hanxing wanted to ask how to lure him out, but Chu Li waved his hand and left.
Sun Mingyue whispered, "Master's Senior, don't worry, he can do it."
Meng Hanxing said, "These Heavenly Demons are all smart and powerful, they won't be fooled so easily."
Sun Mingyue smiled. "Chu Li must have a way."
"You …" Meng Hanxing sighed. "I heard that his wife has cultivated to become a God."
Sun Mingyue's smile faded.
Meng Hanxing said, "Helping someone to become a God is a matter of life and death. He's taking such a big risk, it's obvious that he's deeply in love."
Sun Mingyue smiled. "Master's Senior, don't worry, Chu Li and I are only close friends."
Her identity also meant that they couldn't get married. Chu Li now had two wives.
