Li Meng's expression darkened as she stared coldly at Song Chaohui.
Song Chaohui panicked and quickly said, "Bishop, I'm really innocent!"
"What do you mean innocent? Tell me!" Li Meng said.
"Bishop, I didn't surrender to Asura!" Song Chaohui quickly said, "I was only captured by them and forced to bring them into Great Light Peak. I've been delaying my actions."
"Why did they want to enter Great Light Peak? You should know, right?" Li Meng asked.
"They seemed to want to talk to you, Bishop." Song Chaohui nodded. "I don't think they're plotting anything. They might really have something to talk to you about, but they wouldn't dare to bring them in without your permission. They were looking for an opportunity to send a letter and were leading them in circles when …"
He glanced at Chu Li and felt a chill run down his spine.
Before he could see what was going on, his vision turned black and his acupuncture point was sealed. When he opened his eyes again, he was already here. This guy's martial arts was beyond imagination and shocking.
"You should've sent a message long ago if you wanted to," Li Meng said. "Don't tell me they're smart enough to know how to guard against you."
"I didn't want to mess things up, so I didn't act rashly," Song Chaohui said. "It's better to be safe and find a chance to escape to the mountain."
"Mm, what else?" Li Meng said. "What else is there to say? Say it all in one go."
"May I know who this young master is?" Song Chaohui looked at Chu Li.
Li Meng said, "This is my Master's Junior."
"Head Chief Chu?" Song Chaohui quickly said.
Li Meng scoffed. "At least he's not that stupid!"
Chu Li smiled. "He's not stupid, he's just too smart and greedy. He wants to be immortal and indestructible! You're a Grandmaster too, you should know that you can ascend to the Grandmaster's Boundary after death. "
"Yes, yes." Song Chaohui smiled. "Of course I know that we can enter Great Light Surpassing State after death."
Chu Li said, "I might as well tell you that Sun Mingyue is the future Great Light Surpassing State. It's independent in the Grandmaster's Boundary and has great influence. It's not inferior to the Holy Church of Light. You … You're being silly!"
"Head Chief Chu, I'm really innocent!" Song Chaohui said sincerely, "I believe that Head Chief Chu is very perceptive and will definitely be able to find out the truth."
Chu Li nodded. "I know. You have indeed sought refuge with Asura because your Asura Power Technique's boundary is not low!"
"Hmm —?" Li Meng was surprised and frowned slightly.
If she had cultivated the Asura Power Technique, she should have sensed it. However, she did not, so she was still a little skeptical. Even if Chu Li's judgment was not wrong, she still had some doubts.
Chu Li said, "Logically speaking, the martial arts of the Holy Church of Light and the Asura Power Technique cannot coexist, but you're an exception. You're considered a genius with extraordinary talents, but it's a pity that you didn't use it on the right path."
Song Chaohui panicked even more.
He felt that Chu Li's calm gaze seemed to be able to see through his internal organs. Even his inner thoughts were clearly seen through.
At first, he thought that he could cultivate the Asura Power Technique without anyone noticing, but he never expected Chu Li to see through it with just a glance. No matter how shrewd he was, he could not help but be shaken.
Chu Li sighed. "Now, there's a way out. You can take it."
"What way?" Song Chaohui quickly asked.
Chu Li looked at Li Meng.
Li Meng frowned. "Master's Junior, you want him to be a spy?"
Chu Li slowly nodded. "It's rare for someone to be bribed by Asura. Asura has very high standards. They don't really care about ordinary people. It's obvious that Asura can see through his aptitude."
"Can he succeed?" Li Meng frowned.
Chu Li said, "I have to try."
"Alright, I'll listen to Master's Junior." Li Meng nodded lightly and looked at Song Chaohui. "According to the law, you should be beheaded and die without a doubt. However, this time, I'll allow you to carry out your crimes and perform meritorious deeds. Do you agree?"
"Yes!" Song Chaohui nodded vigorously. "Thank you, Bishop. Thank you, Head Chief Chu!"
He feared and hated Chu Li. If Chu Li had not appeared, he would not have been able to see through his background. However, if it was not for him, he would have died once he was discovered. Now, there was only one way out.
Chu Li said, "You can tell them what Asura is trying to find out, but you have to tell the Holy Church of Light about these things. If there's a chance to go to the Asura Realm, it'll be for the best. It'll be a great merit, and you might even be able to become a Priest."
"This …" Song Chaohui hesitated.
He felt that he was in a difficult position. If he were to leak information about the Holy Church of Light, the consequences would be unpredictable. If it really caused a great disaster, they would still come to him for revenge. Even if they did not say it openly, they would still come to him secretly.
Li Meng saw through his worries and scoffed. "Alright, just do as Master's Junior says. I won't blame you if anything happens!"
Song Chaohui quickly nodded. "Yes!"
Chu Li said, "The most important thing is still the Asura Realm. If you can enter it, your merit will be amazing. Also, you have to remember some of the news that Asura casually spills and pass it to me. Who knows, one of them might be a great merit!"
"Yes." Song Chaohui nodded.
Chu Li said, "As for the Asura Power Technique, you don't have to worry about it. If it's not perfected, it'll be useless. Also, as long as you master the heart technique of the Holy Church of Light, you'll be able to expel the Asura Power Technique."
Song Chaohui finally sighed in relief.
He was worried that if he continued to cultivate the Asura Power Technique, he would go further and further. Even if he made a great merit, he would not be accepted by the Holy Church of Light again. He would become a true anomaly and a traitor in everyone's eyes.
Chu Li waved his hand. "Go."
Li Meng scoffed. "They'll still look for you. Tell me the truth, don't act smart. Asura is smarter than you think!"
"Yes, Bishop!" Song Chaohui gave a fist salute and slowly left.
Chu Li stared at his silhouette, deep in thought.
Li Meng asked, "Master's Junior, will it really work?"
"It depends on his performance." Chu Li said.
If Song Chaohui had other ideas and completely joined the Asura Realm, that would be the best.
He could just kill Song Chaohui and disguise himself as him to enter the Asura Realm to gather information. It would save him the trouble.
If Song Chaohui did not join the Asura Realm, he could also bring news to the Holy Church of Light and understand the Asura Realm better. His understanding of the Asura Realm was very shallow now, so he needed more information.
It seemed like the Asura Disaster in the Lower Realm had been resolved, but who knew if the next Asura Deity King would continue to kill people in the Lower Realm to accumulate inauspicious energy to improve the Asura Power Technique.
The birth of an Asura Deity King required a lot of merit, so it was easy to imagine that after this, the Asura Realm's strength would be greatly reduced. If they wanted to improve quickly, they would need enough inauspicious energy to improve the Asura Power Technique.
In that case, the Lower Realm would become the best place for Asura to cultivate.
When he thought about this, his expression became serious.
"Master's Junior, is it bad?" Li Meng asked.
Chu Li sighed. "It's not good. Once the Asura Deity King is born, there will be another storm. You have to be prepared."
Li Meng said, "It's just killing Asuras, it's nothing."
Chu Li shook his head. "I'm afraid it'll be much stronger than before. … Quickly improve the Church's strength, don't cause any more internal strife."
