Zhao Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and nodded slowly. "That's right, he does have a secret technique to fake his death."
"Heh, that's a good plan!" Huang Tianyi snickered. "He faked his death to fool us, and your Flying Sky Faction will not suffer any losses!"
Zhao Lingfeng sighed. "I didn't want to tell you this, but I don't think I should hide it from you. It's better for everyone to be honest with each other and avoid this war. If the four factions fight, who knows how many factions will be involved. If the Heavenly Demon Realm falls into chaos before we can destroy the Asura Realm and the Grandmaster Realm, how can they just stand by and watch? If they take advantage of the situation, we'll really be sinners of the Heavenly Demon Realm! "
"You're thinking too much. It's not that serious!" Huang Tianyi scoffed. "It's not that easy to cause chaos. There's still the Grand Dream Faction!"
"Who knows." Zhao Lingfeng said. "Fine, I'll trade another secret. What do you think?"
"The Asura who can cultivate the Heavenly Demon Power?" Huang Tianyi asked.
Zhao Lingfeng nodded slowly.
Huang Tianyi said, "Tell me about it."
"Based on my guess, the Grand Dream Faction has already found one," Zhao Lingfeng said. "Of course, this is just a guess."
"Are you lying to me?" Huang Tianyi asked.
Zhao Lingfeng said, "When have I ever lied to you?!"
"Not in the past, but not now." Huang Tianyi rolled her eyes at him and scoffed. "For the faction's benefit, what can't you do? You abandoned me back then, and you'll do the same now! "
Zhao Lingfeng sighed. "This is not a matter of life or death for my faction, why would I lie to you! Of course, this is just a guess. I still need to verify it. "
"Then we'll talk after we verify it!" Huang Tianyi scoffed.
Zhao Lingfeng looked out the window as if he could see the Flying Sky Faction. He sighed. "If I really verify it, how do you think the Grand Dream Faction will react?"
"They'll probably teach you a lesson," Huang Tianyi said.
Zhao Lingfeng smiled.
Huang Tianyi scoffed. "Did they really find that Asura?"
"It's very possible," Zhao Lingfeng said. "If it doesn't work, let's get someone else to try."
"If that's the case, it's not just a legend. It's real." Huang Tianyi pondered. "Why don't we let Xu Ziliang check it out?"
Zhao Lingfeng laughed.
Xu Ziliang was the leader of the Heavenly Wind Sect. He was older than all of them, almost a generation younger than them. However, he was still unyielding and domineering. He had more spirit than wisdom, and often lost his rationality and impulsiveness.
Huang Tianyi said, "Then let Xu Ziliang know."
"No problem," Zhao Lingfeng said with a smile.
Huang Tianyi rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't think that I'm trying to harm the Alliance. It's this old man who doesn't know what's good for him. If it weren't for him, the two sects would have joined forces to destroy your Flying Heaven Sect!"
"Then, I should be thanking him," Zhao Lingfeng said with a smile.
Huang Tianyi scoffed, "Then you should thank him. Let's see if he will take the opportunity to kill you."
Zhao Lingfeng sighed. "He's too hot-tempered. Actually, the Flying Heaven Sect and the Heavenly Wind Sect didn't have to be enemies. It's because he wanted to suppress the Flying Heaven Sect that this situation has come to this."
"He wants to kill you no matter what," Huang Tianyi said. "Be careful. The Xuan Xin Sect will let you go, but the Heavenly Wind Sect won't."
Zhao Lingfeng frowned and slowly nodded. "Then let him try."
Huang Tianyi said, "If Xu Ziliang really tries, the Great Dream Sect won't let him go easily. They might even kill him to silence him."
"That depends on Leader Cheng's courage." Zhao Lingfeng smiled. "How much do you value that Asura? Do you want to take all the benefits for yourself?"
"Let's wait and see!" Huang Tianyi scoffed. "I'll agree to your conditions, but I won't be responsible if anything happens. I won't tell the elders. It's up to Wu Yuansi's luck!"
"… That's fine." Zhao Lingfeng sighed.
He knew that this was the best condition he could get. He couldn't go any further. If he continued, Huang Tianyi would turn against him. It was better to stop while he was ahead.

In a flash, Chu Li appeared outside the Flying Heaven Faction. Then, in another flash, he appeared on top of a mountain. He looked at the towering mountain that pierced through the clouds. It was as if he was in the heavenly palace.
He stared at the Flying Heaven Faction and activated the Heavenly Star Insight Technique in his mind. He was trying to predict the fortune of his move.
After attacking the Heavenly Orb several times and recovering from the backlash, he was getting stronger. Moreover, with the Heavenly Orb and the Nirvana Wheel, the power of the Heavenly Star Insight Technique had increased tremendously. He was able to predict his fortune.
He deduced that his decision this time was a blessing amidst the misfortune, a chance at survival.
That was why he dared to sacrifice himself like this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to do this. To outsiders, it would be no different from suicide.
He let out a long sigh and slowly turned around. He was about to disappear.
Right at this moment, his figure suddenly stopped, and the void suddenly froze. The Heavenly Demon Universe Lock had already been activated. He hurriedly activated the Flying Celestial Demon Technique, and his figure suddenly flashed, as though he was flying, and dodged to the side.
"Bang!" Four palm energies hit the spot where he was previously. There was a muffled sound like thunder, and the mountain he was on seemed to shake.
Four elders appeared in the void. All of them had snow-white eyebrows and long beards. Their bodies were skinny and their eyes were murky. They were old and frail. They looked like they could be blown away by a gust of wind. They had one foot in the grave and did not have the aura of a martial arts master.
However, the palm energy of these four people was ferocious and overbearing beyond imagination. Wherever the palm energy passed, the void seemed to be frozen. One palm strike seemed to be able to shake a mountain.
Chu Li was well-versed in the Samadhi of the Flying Divine Demon Technique. His body movement technique was as agile as a pair of wings. No matter how many people besieged him, he would be able to avoid them. However, when he encountered such pure and powerful palm energy, his body movement technique became sluggish. Suddenly, four palm energies hit his body at the same time.
"Bang!" He flew into the air like a rubber ball. Blood spurted out like arrows. At the same time, he took out a whistling arrow and shot it into the sky.
"Woo —" A shrill howl traveled a long distance.
The four elders swayed their bodies and appeared in the air. They surrounded Chu Li again and four palm energies hit him again.
Chu Li spat out a few pieces of flesh and instantly breathed his last. He fell limply to the ground with a "bang" and did not move at all.
One of the elders stepped forward and grabbed Chu Li's wrist. He looked up at the three people and nodded. "He's dead."
"Cut off his head," another elder said in a low voice.
Then, he took out a short sword from his sleeve. It was as bright as flowing water, and he gently slashed it at Chu Li's neck.
"Stop!" A shout was heard. Zhao Lingfeng appeared beside Chu Li and stretched out his hand to stop him.
His expression changed. He knew that if he was beheaded, his fake death would become real.
The three elders rushed toward him and blocked his way.
Huang Tianyi appeared not far away. His apricot gown fluttered in the wind. He stood in the void and looked down at them. He had no intention of helping.
"Ah —!" Zhao Lingfeng roared. "How dare you!"
