Chu Li turned his head and saw a graceful and beautiful woman dressed in white standing behind him. She was stunningly beautiful, and her eyes were like cold stars as she stared at him calmly, without a ripple of emotion.
Chu Li's heart skipped a beat but his face showed surprise, "Who are you? Why are you here? "
This lady was the deputy island leader of Paradise Island, Song Jing.
Song Jing's cultivation level was unfathomable. He could not feel her cultivation level at all. It was as if she had merged with the ocean in front of her. Her breath was connected to the movement of the ocean. Her aura seemed non-existent yet omnipresent.
He knew he had no chance of winning so he did not plan to fight. He just wanted to get away from this dangerous lady.
"I was cultivating here and was disturbed by you," Song Jing said faintly.
Chu Li quickly closed fist saluted and smiled, "That was my fault. Please forgive me for disturbing you!"
Song Jing looked at him, "You don't know me?"
Chu Li shook his head, "Have you seen me before?"
"You're not from the sea?" Song Jing asked.
Chu Li said, "I'm just a wanderer. I'm not from any sect or faction."
"Your martial arts are quite interesting," Song Jing said, "Go, but keep your mouth shut."
Chu Li nodded, "Understood!"
He wanted to leave but he knew he could not rush or Song Jing would suspect him. Not only was she skilled in martial arts, but she also had sharp eyes. She was cunning and sharp.
Song Jing's calm gaze moved away from him and looked into the distance. Her side profile was beautiful as if she was carved out of white jade. She did not look like a woman from the mortal world.
Chu Li guessed that she had obtained the Book of Pacifying Seas and was hiding here to cultivate. Seeing that her cultivation level had improved greatly, it was possible that she had succeeded in cultivating it. That was a big problem. First, there was Wan Ziyang, and now, there was Song Jing.
Both of them would make the martial arts world on the mainland weaker and the sects of the sea more powerful.
However, he did not have the intention to turn the tide. It was better to go with the flow. He could not bear such a huge responsibility with his current ability. If he were to fight with Song Jing, he would not have a chance of winning no matter what he did.
After obtaining the Dark Ice Orb and Crimson Sun Orb, he should be able to quickly improve his cultivation level. Only then would he have the power to fight back. For now, he had to be obedient to avoid getting himself killed.
He cupped his fists. "Farewell!"
After saying that, he turned around and leaped over another glacier, then the third one, getting further and further away from Song Jing.
However, he did not relax. He did not dare to use the Omniscient Mirror to observe the situation behind him. To Song Jing, the distance that he could see was just a stretch of his hand. Hence, he could not relax because there was no real safety.
He did not dare to use the Omniscient Mirror or the Heaven's Eye. Instead, he floated around obediently.
"Stop!" Suddenly, a shout rang out.
Chu Li knew something was wrong the moment he heard it. His Heaven's Ear allowed him to be extremely sensitive to sounds, so he knew it was Meng Yu the moment he heard it.
He wanted to disappear with a flash, but his body suddenly froze. He was unable to enter the void immediately. His Divine Feet was also blocked. When he tried to activate it again, his body was already sealed and he could not move.
Song Jing was already standing behind him. With a casual slap, she directly froze him.
His body was strong, different from ordinary people. Sealing his acupoints was useless. However, under Song Jing's palm, his unique body was like an ordinary person, bound by a powerful force, unable to move.
"Senior Sister Song!" Meng Yu bowed respectfully.
Song Jing glanced at him calmly and said lightly, "Why are you here?"
"Chase this guy!" Meng Yu said hatefully.
Song Jing said lightly, "How did he offend you?"
Meng Yu said, "This person wanted to kill me when I was injured and stole my spirit pill. He is truly despicable. I must kill him!"
Song Jing squinted her bright eyes and said lightly, "Tell me the truth!"
"… Alright, I obtained a treasure and he took it. Hand over the Dark Ice Pearl!" Meng Yu gritted his teeth and stared at Chu Li.
He was sure that after Chu Li took the Crimson Sun Pearl, he would definitely find a place to hide it and not bring it with him. He did not expect Chu Li to be so bold.
Aside from the Dark Ice Pearl, the Crimson Sun Pearl was more important to him. It could allow his Nine Luminaries Divine Power to advance by a level or even by leaps and bounds.
Since the Dark Ice Pearl was taken by Song Jing, he could just pretend he did not touch it.
Song Jing said lightly, "The Dark Ice Pearl is indeed a treasure. No wonder."
As she spoke, she reached into Chu Li's arms and took out the Dark Ice Pearl. She placed it on her palm and examined it.
"Senior Sister Song, be careful. This item is too strange. It's bone-chilling," Meng Yu said quickly.
Song Jing stared at the Dark Ice Pearl without looking at him. "It's fine."
"I will give this pearl to Senior Sister Song as thanks for helping me capture this thief! I must kill him with my own hands to vent my hatred!" Meng Yu said hatefully.
Song Jing glanced at Chu Li. "Since he dared to take your treasure, he is not afraid of death. You can have it."
"Thank you, Senior Sister Song!" Meng Yu closed fist saluted.
Song Jing waved her hand. Her gaze was still on the Dark Ice Pearl. She did not blink as she felt its force. It was compatible with her Still Ocean Power. It was beneficial for her cultivation.
Suddenly, a green shadow flashed. Chu Li instantly grabbed the Dark Ice Pearl from her hand and disappeared.
"Bang!" Song Jing wanted to retract her hand at the critical moment but it was too late. She extended her palm and hit Chu Li's chest. She watched him disappear into thin air.
"Ah —!" Meng Yu roared.
Song Jing frowned and did not chase after him.
He was hit by her palm and his life was in danger. The Still Ocean Power was not an ordinary martial art. The Ocean Palm could directly control the blood and attack the blood with inner energy. It was impossible for the opponent to defend against it.
The opponent's blood would coagulate, piece by piece. In the end, the blood vessels would be blocked and they would die. There was no way to save them.
The Still Ocean Power was powerful and impossible to defend against. Combined with the Ocean Palm, it was extremely vicious.
She used the palm because she wanted to kill him. She would not use it lightly under normal circumstances. That was why she was certain that Chu Li would die.
"Senior Sister Song, are we not going after him?" Meng Yu asked as he calmed his anger and killing intent.
Song Jing said, "There's no rush. He can't escape."
"Sigh …" Meng Yu shook his head. "I advise Senior Sister Song not to be careless. I always thought I would kill him but he escaped every time. He's tough!"
"Don't worry. I will kill him after I get the Dark Ice Pearl," Song Jing said.
Previously, when Chu Li wanted to escape, he had used God's Limbs. She had already seen through it and thus knew Chu Li's identity.
That was why she killed him. Even if Chu Li did not die, she could find him. That was why she was not anxious.
She did not plan to tell Meng Yu his identity. She was wary of Meng Yu and knew that he was not a kind person.
Meng Yu nodded slowly. "Alright, I believe Senior Sister Song. I'll take my leave!"
Song Jing waved her hand. "Don't rush. How did you know the Dark Ice Pearl was here?"
"Well …" Meng Yu sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, Senior Sister Song, I also read ancient books and guessed blindly. I was bored and took a stroll. I didn't expect to really touch the Mystic Ice Bead. My luck was indeed good, but it was still snatched away.
