Xiao Qi slowly nodded. "If we don't destroy Lakshmi Sect, we'll be letting down our fellow disciples and elders who died tragically!"
Although she had a peaceful nature and did not like to fight with others, she did not care about worldly affairs. After all, she was the young lady of the House of High Dukes. When she needed to be fierce, she would not be weak and would never forgive her enemies.
Chu Li said, "Then let's destroy them!"
His heart was as firm as stone. Killing or not killing was only a matter of thought, and he did not hesitate.
Xiao Qi asked, "Don't tell me you don't have the heart to do that?"
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "They can destroy the Tai Supreme Peak, but we can't destroy them. Don't worry, we'll kill them all!"
Xiao Qi gently shook her head. "There's no need for that. We just need to kill the people who did it. If they still refuse to give up, it won't be too late to kill them."
Chu Li smiled. "Madam, you're too soft-hearted. They won't be grateful to you. They'll only think of ways to avenge their fellow disciples. There'll be a lot of trouble in the future!"
"Then we'll wait for them to take revenge," Xiao Qi said faintly. "If they can't handle it, then there's nothing to complain about."
Chu Li said, "Lucky Xiang Sect's strength is still very strong. This time, the Thunder God's Slaying Sword's strength has skyrocketed because of the provocation. It won't be easy to defeat them based on our original skills."
Xiao Qi nodded gently.
She had personally experienced Lakshmi Sect's strength, so how could she be careless? She frowned and said, "Lakshmi Sect has an ally. This is troublesome. Killing Yan Yuanchu won't solve everything."
Chu Li smiled. "What other allies do you have?"
"Joyful Clan." Xiao Qi looked disgusted. "It's said that they're one branch and two flowers. They originally belonged to the same branch, but the Joyful Clan is stronger."
Chu Li smiled. "Yan Yuanchu is already dead, yet they still want to avenge him?"
"Yan Yuanchu's lover is an elder of the Joyful Clan." Xiao Qi scoffed and said, "They'll definitely not let this matter rest. It's best to hide for a while. I heard that the Joyful Clan's martial arts are strange and unpredictable."
Chu Li chuckled and hugged her as he looked around. "What do you think of this place?"
"Very good. It's quiet and beautiful." Siao Qi nodded. "It's a rare otherworldly place."
Inside, one's heart was calm, as if one was separated from time and space.
Chu Li said, "This is Yan Yuanchu's secret place. No one knows about it, and no one will come here in the future. If we hide here, no one will be able to predict it."
"That's impossible, right?" Xiao Qi frowned.
She was deeply fearful of the Lakshmi Sect's divination techniques. There was truly nowhere to hide. Even if she had treasures, she still couldn't escape from their divination. Even with the Nine Cauldrons Suppressing the Heavens and the astonishingly powerful array formation, she still couldn't escape.
Chu Li smiled and said, "Yan Yuanchu must have chosen this place as a secret place because of its uniqueness and its ability to avoid being deduced. You can rest at ease and recuperate. Besides, we can try to enlighten you again."
Xiao Qi smiled.
Two days later, in the early morning, Chu Li and Xiao Qi appeared at Taishang Peak.
Xiao Qi's aura became colder and calmer. The aura on her body was faintly discernible. She did not look like a top-notch master. Instead, she looked more like someone who had never cultivated martial arts before. Her brilliance was restrained and she seemed to have returned to her original state.
After another round of Head Empowerment, Siao Qi's cultivation level skyrocketed. She was now even stronger than Chu Li.
The Most High Peak was tall and lofty, covered with snow that never melted.
Using the Omniscient Mirror, Chu Li's expression turned solemn.
Initially, Xu Ke had tried to persuade Chu Li to dispel his killing intent by promising the Lakshmi Sect's disciples to leave the Most High Peak. However, she realized that the Most High Peak was still occupied by the Lakshmi Sect's disciples and they had no intention of leaving.
Moreover, the Most High Peak was filled with a murderous aura. It was obvious that they were waiting for Chu Li and Xiao Qi to arrive.
Xiao Qi turned to look at him and smiled. "Are you disappointed?"
Chu Li replied faintly, "What else is there to say if they're courting death!"
"You're the ones who are courting death!" A chuckle was suddenly heard. Then, a young man appeared in the void in front of them. He looked down at them condescendingly as if he was looking at ants.
Chu Li frowned. He felt that the young man's aura was strange. It was faintly discernible. It felt as if he was close enough to reach out and touch, but at the same time, it felt as if he was so far away that he could not touch him. It was an extremely contradictory feeling.
Xiao Qi also sized up the young man.
His appearance was ordinary and he did not attract any attention when he stood in the crowd. His figure was tall and straight, and he had an imposing appearance. Other than that, she could not tell that he was strong. He was different from Xiao Qi's restrained brilliance. It was as if he really did not know martial arts.
If he really did not know martial arts, he would not be standing in the void with such an imposing manner.
Chu Li suppressed his anger and ignored the young man's condescending expression as if he was looking at ants. He asked calmly, "May I know who you are?"
"Lu Huayu, the Holy Son of Lakshmi Sect!" The young man said with his hands behind his back. "Are you Chu Li?"
Chu Li nodded.
"You killed Sect Leader Yan?" Lu Huayu's expression darkened.
Chu Li said, "I killed Yan Yuanchu."
"You're quite capable indeed." Lu Huayu sneered. "However, you took advantage of the situation and killed Sect Leader Yan when his cultivation level deteriorated the most. Your crime is unforgivable!"
Chu Li could not help but laugh.
Lu Huayu said coldly, "You don't believe me?"
Chu Li said, "His cultivation level deteriorated?"
Lu Huayu said, "There's no harm in telling you. The root of the problem lies with Xiao Qi. Sect Leader Yan must have used the Reversal Technique. This strange technique consumes his cultivation level and requires enough time to recover. Unfortunately, you came at the right time. He was careless and attacked you directly. As a result, he fell into your hands. This is fate!"
Chu Li smiled and said, "If that's the case, I can't kill him at his peak?"
"Yes." Lu Huayu nodded.
Xiao Qi asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"Let me tell you, Lakshmi Sect won't give in so easily!" Lu Huayu said seriously, "Since Sect Leader Yan isn't here, as the Holy Son, I'm temporarily in charge of the sect's affairs!"
Chu Li said, "Then you'll be the next sect leader."
"Yes." Lu Huayu scoffed. "In a month, I'll be the sect leader. Since the two of you are here, it'll be a great gift for me to take over the sect leader's position. Thank you so much!"
Xiao Qi said, "You talk too much. Let's fight!"
Lu Huayu's long-winded words were meant to attack their hearts. It was more like a bluff. The Holy Son's cultivation level was profound, but she was not afraid. Her current cultivation level was enough to protect herself.
Lu Huayu's expression darkened as he coldly glanced at the two of them. "Since you're eager to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"
He waved his hand in the air.
Suddenly, eighteen people appeared in the void. There were nine men and nine women. The men were handsome and masculine while the women were gentle and charming. Their every move was flirtatious and charming.
Xiao Qi said coldly, "Joyful Sect!"
"You're indeed a disciple of the Supreme Peak. You're very knowledgeable." Lu Huayu sneered. "Let's have a taste of the Joyful Formation."
He pursed his lips and whistled.
The eighteen people disappeared in a flash and reappeared in the next moment. A strange aura descended from the sky and pervaded the surroundings. Chu Li and Xiao Qi felt the scenery in front of them change. There was a bright light before their feet turned into golden bricks that shone with golden light. They were surrounded by a basilica while some were playing the guzheng and some were dancing. They were graceful and moving, and the sound of the guzheng was like the sound of nature.
The void in Chu Li's mind shone brightly. Then, the Buddhas and demons shone, clearing his mind.
A simple longsword appeared above Xiao Qi's head. It was faintly discernible and resisted the erosion of the strange aura around them.
