Ning Jingtian was overjoyed and bowed. "Seniors, you came just in time!"
A green-robed elder asked gently, "Did they escape?"
"We're tracking them." Ning Jingtian quickly said, "Elder Jing, we'll definitely catch up to them. They might not be able to handle Chu Li's provocation."
Chu Li nodded and roared into the sky again, laughing. "High Lord Zhao, High Lord Sui, if you escape, you won't have the face to be a High Lord. You should just kill yourselves and ruin the Asura's reputation!"
His roar and laughter echoed in the sky, but the people around him did not think it was impressive.
The four newcomers' expressions changed. They could feel Chu Li's power and could not help but size him up.
Chu Li pretended not to see and glided to the treetop, laughing. "My apologies for not welcoming you, High Lords from afar. Why don't we enter Sleeping Dragon City and have a good drink? Do you have the guts to do so?"
His voice traveled several dozen kilometers, and almost all of the Sleeping Dragon Mountains heard it. Many Asura heard it as well, and they all cursed. Their voices drifted over with the wind, barely audible.
However, the two High Lords did not seem to hear him. It was as if they were already far away and did not make a sound.
Chu Li continued, "Since you don't dare to meet me, I'll take my leave."
He turned and left as he spoke, flying a mile away in the blink of an eye.
Ning Jingtian sensed that something was wrong. It seemed like Chu Li was really going to leave, so he quickly floated in front of him to block his way.
Chu Li raised his brows. "Senior Ning, I'll take my leave."
"Chu Li, what are you doing?" Ning Jingtian frowned.
Chu Li replied, "Looks like my provocation didn't work. They didn't fall for it and they won't rush over … Forget it. With your abilities, you'll definitely be able to catch up to them."
"Even if you don't provoke them, won't you go after them with your help?" Ning Jingtian frowned. "This is a rare opportunity. We might not be able to gather so many masters next time," Ning Jingtian said in a low voice.
Going after the two High Lords was extremely dangerous and could easily threaten one's life. One more person meant one more force, especially since Chu Li's cultivation level was so high. They could not let him go.
Chu Li sighed. "Since you're here, I don't have to join in the fun. I'll take my leave."
Then, without waiting for Ning Jingtian's reply, she flew over a hundred feet away like a breeze.
Ning Jingtian didn't think he could stop Chu Li, so he could only fly back to the old men and say, "Chu Li wants to leave."
"You can leave if you want." The round-faced green-robed elder smiled and said, "Let him be. We can't expect a little guy to help us."
"This little guy is amazing." A blue-robed elder next to him snorted. "You've made quite a name for yourself at such a young age, and you've done many great things. Your cultivation is even more astonishing."
"It must be because of his astonishing luck and continuous fortuitous encounters," another blue-robed old man said lazily.
"Like the disciples of the Heaven Shaking Tower?" The round-faced, green-robed elder smiled and said, "But I don't think any of your Heaven Shaking Tower disciples can compare to him!"
"He is indeed a genius." A blue-robed old man said in a deep voice, "Everyone was mistaken. We all felt that his potential was limited, but in the end, he was able to reach this step alone. As expected of a genius!"
"I heard that the Heaven Shaking Tower has some bad intentions towards him." The round-faced, green-robed elder scoffed. "You should know his relationship with the Tai Hao Peak. You can't do anything to him!"
"Petty people!" another blue-robed elder scoffed.
"Alright!" The square-faced, green-robed elder waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "It's time to get down to business. We've set out as a group, we can't just return in failure, can we? Killing a Supreme Lord is also a form of motivation for the useless juniors. "
"That's right." Everyone nodded.
The three blue-robed elders gathered together and stood in a triangular formation. Then, each of them made a mudra and stood still. The prayer beads on their wrists flashed with a strange light.
After a while, the three of them opened their eyes and nodded.
The prayer beads on their wrists became dull and unnoticeable again.
"This way!" One of the blue-robed elders extended his left hand and pointed southwest.
The group ran in that direction. Soon, the ten masters who had set out earlier fell behind and could not keep up with them.
They couldn't care less about the ten masters. Ning Jingtian and the seven elders chased like a gust of wind for a hundred miles, but they still couldn't find Sui Miaozhu and Zhao Yuanyang.
The three blue-robed elders worked together again and used their artifacts to find Sui Miaozhu and Zhao Yuanyang's location.
After a while, one of the blue-robed elders pointed west and said slowly, "Over there!"
"After them!" The eight of them ran another hundred miles.
Ning Jingtian followed them closely. His face was pale, and his breathing was heavy.
He had a fortuitous encounter and was good at lightness skill and endurance. His meridians were shockingly long. However, compared to these old monsters, he was still lacking. He felt that he couldn't do it and fell further and further behind.
After chasing for a hundred miles, they stopped again. The three blue-robed elders worked together again and used their artifacts to find the two Supreme Lords' location.
"Not good!" one of the blue-robed elders suddenly yelled.
The four blue-robed elders and Ning Jingtian, who had rushed over and was panting, were shocked.
The blue-robed elder said, "It's a bad sign. We shouldn't chase anymore!"
The round-faced, green-robed elder frowned and said, "Old Su, what do you mean? Don't tell me you can't find them? "
"There should be an ambush." Su Zhaonan said in a deep voice, "These two are really cunning. They have a backup plan. They're planning to ambush us!"
"It can't be." The round-faced, green-robed elder said, "How did they know our plan? Could there be a traitor? "
"Could it be Chu Li?" Ning Jingtian said hurriedly.
The round-faced, green-robed elder narrowed his eyes and glanced at him coldly.
Su Zhaonan said, "Asura also has a top-notch expert in deduction. It's possible that they've found us in advance. … We've suffered a few losses from them. They're better than us."
The Heaven Shaking Pavilion's disciples had already made several mistakes, all of them plotting against the Asura Sect. In the end, the Asura Sect beat them at their own game, turning the tables on them, causing them to suffer heavy losses. These disciples were all punished, and their confidence was shaken.
It was clear that the Asura's divination expert had obtained some kind of treasure and was like a tiger that had grown wings. Or perhaps his divination ability had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching a whole new level. In any case, this was a huge threat to the Heaven Shaking Pavilion, and it dealt a heavy blow to the Heaven Shaking Pavilion's prestige.
"Elder Su, so we have no choice but to retreat?" The round-faced, green-robed elder said coldly, "Did we do all this for nothing?"
It wasn't easy to gather seven of the older generation experts together. In the end, they came here for nothing. They retreated dejectedly without seeing the two Supreme Lords. Where would they put their faces if word got out?
"It's better than losing our lives," Su Zhaonan said in a deep voice.
The other two blue-robed elders sighed and shook their heads.
Su Zhaonan scoffed. "As expected of the Supreme Lords. They're powerful. We've already lost our best chance."
If they could catch up with the two within a hundred miles, they would have a chance to kill them. But now, they'd lost their chance.
The two Supreme Lords seemed to have rushed over recklessly, but they were actually bait. They were powerful.
"With the seven of us together, how many Great Asuras can stop us? We'll just kill one of them and escape! "The round-faced, green-robed elder said," What's the use of having more Great Asuras? "
Su Zhaonan said coldly, "There are probably more than a hundred Great Asuras. Can you stop them? They're waiting for us to enter! "
