"The Great Mercy Temple will be in trouble from now on!" Ding Jian sighed.
"Slap!" The short sword fell to the ground. It was exquisite but gleaming with a cold light.
Ding Shi said, "Eldest Senior Brother, Song Jing has improved again. She's progressing at a tremendous pace!"
"Her comprehension and talent are amazing." Ding Jian shook his head. "How can a genius like her not progress at a tremendous pace? We have to be careful or else she'll take our heads."
Chu Li smiled. "Eldest Senior Brother, you're exaggerating."
Ding Jian said seriously, "Don't be careless. She's not that easy to deal with."
"Third Junior Brother, it's rare that you're able to deal with the Spirit-stealing Needle. We might not be able to block it either." Ding Jian said seriously.
Ding Jian nodded. "Song Ying used this needle to dominate the world and killed countless masters. Almsgiver Zhou has also mastered this needle. It's a catastrophe for the world. Amitabha!"
He chanted the name of Buddha with a compassionate expression.
Ding Shi looked at Chu Li in confusion. "Junior Brother, why did you let Almsgiver Zhou go?"
Chu Li said, "He was hit by the Demon Suppression Seal. He won't survive."
"The martial arts of the islands on the sea are not inferior to ours. We must not be careless." Ding Shi shook his head and said disapprovingly, "What if they really have a life-saving technique or a treasure?"
Chu Li smiled. "Then he's not fated to die. Let's give him a chance."
"If he's alive, the disciples of the Great Mercy Temple and even the others will be in danger," Ding Shi said.
Chu Li said, "It's not too late to take his life then. Second Senior Brother, don't worry. Although he's ruthless, he's not a bad person. He might not kill him."
"Junior Brother, did you notice something?" Ding Shi was enlightened.
Although he was honest and sincere, he was not stupid. After some time, he knew that this Third Junior Brother was all smiles, low-key, and forbearing. He would not hesitate when it was time to be ruthless.
There must be a reason why he let Zhou Baiyu go so easily. He might have seen through Zhou Baiyu's fate.
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. "I want to find their lair."
Ding Jian and Ding Shi finally understood.
Ding Jian smiled bitterly. "Third Junior Brother, you're really bold. I admire you!"
He immediately understood Chu Li's intentions.
Chu Li smiled. "Senior Brothers, I actually have another divine power, the All-Seeing Divine Power."
Ding Jian and Ding Shi pondered for a while before Ding Shi slowly said, "I think I've heard of this name before, but it's extremely unorthodox. Very few people have succeeded in practicing it."
Chu Li said, "The Demon Suppression Seal is on Zhou Baiyu's body. As long as it hasn't been dispelled, I'll be able to sense it. From there, I'll be able to locate where he's staying. I'm sure there are other important people around, right?"
"This is going to blow up …" Ding Jian lamented.
Ding Shi said, "Master might not agree."
"I'll go and take a look first. Don't let them beat us at our own game," Chu Li said.
"… Alright." Ding Jian thought about it and said after a moment of hesitation, "Third Junior Martial Brother, you have the God's Limbs and can come and go without a trace. You can go and check out their situation before deciding what to do."
He sighed inwardly. As expected of Third Junior Brother, his actions were steady, accurate, and ruthless.
The Great Mercy Temple could send their top masters to follow him to the lair of the Heavenly Happiness Island. They could even find the location of the Heavenly Happiness Island and destroy it in one fell swoop.
If they were to move together with the Five Thunder Peak, it would be absolutely foolproof. No matter how strong the Heavenly Happiness Island was, they would not be able to escape if they were attacked by the top masters of the two sects.
However, Third Junior Martial Brother was meticulous in his actions. He had thought of preventing the Heavenly Happiness Island from beating them at their own game and joining forces with the other islands to deal a heavy blow to the two sects. Therefore, he had probed in advance and was cautious.
He and Ding Shi looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
In terms of wisdom and martial arts, the two of them were originally top-notch. However, in front of Third Junior Martial Brother, they paled in comparison. It was as if they had become stupid people. They were not on the same level of wisdom at all.

Zhou Baiyu felt as if he was in a pitch-black ice cellar. His vision turned black and his body was bone-chilling without a trace of warmth. This feeling of despair made him want to give up and leave right away.
However, the faint fragrance at the tip of his nose and the soft, jade-like hands on his shoulder made him unwilling to leave. He wished that he could stay at this moment forever.
"Bang!" He realized that he had landed on a boat. The fragrance was still there, but the jade-like hands had already left, making him feel lost.
"Junior Martial Brother Zhou!" Song Jing called out softly.
Zhou Baiyu tried his best to open his eyes and realized that he was lying on a bed. The feeling of his body swaying gently made him feel at ease. He tried his best to smile. "Senior Martial Sister Song, I'm fine."
"How do you feel?" Song Jing frowned.
When Zhou Baiyu felt the soft, jade-like hands on his back again, he immediately smiled.
"You're already in this state, and you're still smiling!" Song Jing said coldly.
Zhou Baiyu shook his head lightly. "I won't die. The little monk only hit me with a palm."
"I'm not that optimistic!" Song Jing said angrily.
She sent her inner energy through her palm, but it was like a clay ox entering the sea. After it entered Zhou Baiyu's body, it immediately disappeared. His body was like a bottomless pit, and any energy that entered it would disappear.
She couldn't even detect what was going on, so she could only let Zhou Baiyu speak for himself.
Zhou Baiyu said softly, "I'm much better now."
"Tell me the truth!" Song Jing's expression suddenly turned cold and solemn. She stared at him tensely. "If you don't tell me the truth, I really won't be able to save you!"
"… It's very cold, and also very dark," Zhou Baiyu said softly.
He could clearly see, but for some reason, he felt that it was dark and cold. It was as if he had been thrown into a pitch-black cold cellar, and was gradually being devoured by the darkness and coldness. If it wasn't for Senior Sister Song being in front of him, he really would have fallen into despair.
Song Jing took out a jade bottle from her bosom, and carefully poured out a snow-white pill, which she stuffed into Zhou Baiyu's mouth.
Zhou Baiyu smiled again.
The feeling of her soft, fragrant hand on his lips was too wonderful. It was as if he had ascended to the clouds.
"Bam, bam, bam …" Song Jing patted his chest several times, wanting to help him digest the pill.
However, these palm energies were like clay oxen entering the sea. They still didn't exist, and they disappeared without a trace.
Song Jing frowned. She didn't know what kind of palm energy this was, but it was really strange.
After a while, Zhou Baiyu's face turned green, and his eyes became blurry and unfocused. He didn't look like he had consumed a spirit pill at all, and his aura became even weaker. He was like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished at any time.
"Junior Brother Zhou!" Song Jing called softly.
Zhou Baiyu didn't move.
"Junior Brother Zhou!" Song Jing shouted.
Zhou Baiyu murmured, and his voice was abnormally weak.
Song Jing pursed her red lips tightly, and suddenly disappeared from the small boat. After a while, she reappeared with an old man in a white robe. His eyebrows were as white as snow, and his face was as red as a baby's. He looked like an immortal.
"Master's Junior Zhuge, look at him," Song Jing said.
Zhuge Huihong stroked his beard and frowned. He glanced at Zhou Baiyu in the small boat, and reached out to touch him. He then extended his palm to touch his back, and looked at Song Jing with a serious expression.
Song Jing hurriedly asked, "Master's Junior, what palm hit him?"
"The Demon Suppression Seal," Zhuge Huihong said slowly. "Did you encounter Monk Huiguang?"
Song Jing cried out involuntarily, "It's really the Demon Suppression Seal?!"
Zhuge Huihong nodded slowly. "It must be the Demon Suppression Seal. What a shameless monk!"
"It's not that bald donkey Huiguang, it's his disciple!" Song Jing said softly.
