Chu Li turned his head and saw a woman standing in the void that the Great Circle Mystical Sky Mirror couldn't see.
The woman wore a dark green gown and was petite, looking like a pure young girl.
She stepped on the void with her gown fluttering in the wind. Her graceful curves were faintly discernible as she stood there quietly watching Chu Li and Su Miaomiao. It was as if she was watching a show and it had nothing to do with her. She only looked on coldly.
"Sect Leader!" Su Miaomiao called out in surprise.
Chu Li smiled. "Miss Su, even if your sect leader is here, it's useless!"
"What a big tone!" A clear voice sounded and the petite woman smiled coldly. "Demon Subduing Hall's Ding Ru is indeed worthy of her reputation. Sinister, ruthless, and cold-blooded!"
Chu Li could not help but laugh. "Are you talking about me?"
"How many innocent disciples have you killed?" The delicate woman said coldly, "Just like now. Miaomiao isn't an evil person, yet you were actually ruthlessly destroying a flower. You really are cold-blooded and have a warped state of mind. It's truly astounding!"
Chu Li pressed his palms together. "Amitabha!"
"Have you repented?" The petite woman scoffed. "Have you realized how extreme you were and that you've gone down the wrong path?"
Chu Li shook his head. "I've learned a lot. Sect Leader Su is an eloquent debater. I'm impressed!"
Although he had never met the sect leader of Miaoxiang Sect, he knew she was Su Yirong.
Su Yirong said, "Then tell me, what crime did Miaomiao commit?"
"Miss Su might not have committed any evil, but she insisted on killing me. Do you think I'll let her off easily just because she didn't commit any evil? I've already spared her twice, but unfortunately, she refused to come to her senses. There's nothing I can do about it! "Chu Li said slowly," As the saying goes, the evils brought upon themselves are the hardest to bear. She chose this path of death! "
"At the end of the day, you're just doing it for yourself!" Su Yirong sneered. "Doesn't Demon Subduing Hall sacrifice themselves for benevolence? What you're doing isn't benevolence, right? It's just a personal grudge! "
"Although Demon Subduing Hall sacrifices themselves, it doesn't mean they don't care about their own lives." Chu Li shook his head. "Forget it, Sect Leader Su. There's no point in talking. Let's do it. If you can save Miss Su, I won't say anything."
"I heard you don't have many days left!" Su Yirong frowned and said, "It is said that the words of a dying man are kind. Can't you do a good deed before you die and let Miaomiao go?"
Her voice was clear and cold, but it had the power to convince people, making them want to listen to her.
Chu Li said impatiently, "Sect Leader Su, it's better for you to stop using this trick. If the Demon Slaying Palace Lord could be subdued by your Gu Bewitching Hand, he would've gone extinct a long time ago. There's no need to try again!"
He knew that Su Yirong had been silently casting a strange technique to bewitch and control him.
The Ingenious Appearance Sect didn't rely on martial arts to achieve victory. Instead, they used strange techniques to control others to achieve their goals. Compared to directly killing people, this was a level higher and more troublesome method.
Su Yirong's eyes flashed, and she slowly said, "I have indeed underestimated you. Ding Ru, what do you want?"
Chu Li replied, "I should be the one asking the Sect Leader this question. What does the Sect Leader want to do?"
"Save our sect's disciples." Su Yirong said.
Chu Li smiled. "That will depend on Sect Leader's capabilities."
"What conditions do you have?" Su Yirong asked plainly.
Chu Li said, "Sect Leader, what conditions do you think I, a person who's about to die, have? A person's death is like an extinguished lamp. Everything can be thrown away. I just want to be refreshed and have a clear mind! "
"Does that mean that Miaomiao must die?" Su Yirong scoffed.
Chu Li slowly nodded. "If you can save her, I have nothing to say. It's all up to your capabilities. If you can't save her, then it means that her fate isn't good. There's no point in talking anymore. I shall take my leave!"
As he said this, he pressed his palms together and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Su Yirong shouted.
She took a step to Su Miaomiao's side and reached out to press her wrist. Her expression changed slightly as she said coldly, "What a great Demon Slaying Seal! … I have a treasure to exchange with you. "
Chu Li smiled and shook his head. He was about to leave.
"It's a treasure that can increase one's lifespan!" Su Yirong scoffed.
Chu Li stopped abruptly. He slowly turned his head to look at her. "Increase one's lifespan?"
"There are many treasures in this world that can increase one's lifespan but they can't increase one's origin's lifespan." Su Yirong said, "This thing can increase one's lifespan and can save you! … Do you think it's worth it to exchange your life for Miaomiao's? "
"How much lifespan can it increase?" Chu Li asked.
He was dubious. He had never heard of anything that could increase one's lifespan. Usually, those treasures that could extend one's lifespan were just icing on the cake. They couldn't provide timely help or save one's life when one's life was in danger.
"Ten years." Su Yirong said.
As she spoke, she took out a snow-white, flawless pearl. It was like a pearl the size of a longan, shining brightly.
She raised the snow-white pearl and said in a deep voice, "This is the Heavenly Light Pearl. It gathers the essence of heaven and earth. It's said that it's not from this world but from the Upper Heaven."
Chu Li said, "If that's the case, it's only a rumor. There's no guarantee."
Su Yirong scoffed. "You don't want to gamble? It's already come to this! "
Chu Li pondered and shook his head. "Forget it. I'll keep this spirit pill for my own use."
Su Yirong said, "Don't you want to seize a chance? How about this, you take the pill first. If it's effective, you can save Miaomiao. What do you think? "
Chu Li did not expect her to be so bold. It seemed like she was very confident in this Heavenly Light Pearl. He smiled. "Where did this Heavenly Light Pearl come from?"
"Someone gave it to me." Su Yirong said lightly. "I got it when I was young. I originally wanted to use it when my lifespan was nearing its end. Now that the situation has forced me to, I'll give it to you!"
Chu Li stared at her pure face for a while and slowly shook his head. "Forget it."
Su Yirong's expression was calm and confident. Her mind flashed and was wrapped by an invisible force. He could not invade it. He could only rely on his instinct and intuition to sense danger.
He felt that it was most likely a trap.
Although he was going to die soon and there was nothing worth framing, his use of spiritual energy was far better than most people. His understanding of this aspect was also deeper. This body was originally a cage. His soul could not break out. If there were any strange tricks, he would not have a chance to escape.
He was not afraid of death. He was afraid of being restrained. He could not die even if he wanted to. That was the scariest thing.
Su Yirong smiled and shook her head. "I thought Ding Ru was close to death and would agree no matter what. I didn't expect you to be so vicious. You'd rather die than kill Miaomiao!"
Chu Li said, "I just feel that there's no such coincidence in this world."
"This Heavenly Light Pearl can really increase one's lifespan by ten years. I believe the person who gave it to me wouldn't lie to me!" Su Yirong said.
Chu Li shook his head. "Forget it."
"… Alright, alright!" Su Yirong said coldly. "Since you've given up this chance of survival, then forget it. Miaomiao, I'm useless."
"Sect Leader …" Su Miaomiao had been quietly listening to the confrontation between the two. She gently shook her head. "Sect Leader, if I die, then I die. It's no big deal. I won't lose to this stupid monk!"
She was terrified but when she saw how calm Chu Li was, she inexplicably calmed down. She was no longer that afraid of death. Perhaps the two of them would really go to the same place. Then, she could take her revenge!
"Since you don't believe me, then I'll swallow it!" Su Yirong scoffed. She pinched the outer layer of the Heavenly Light Pearl and threw it into her mouth.
