Chu Li smiled. "If I'm not wrong, she can only kill me through schemes. She won't kill me directly."
"… Makes sense." Song Jing immediately came to a realization and recalled what happened before.
She frowned and pondered.
If the Demon Sect Leader really wanted to kill him, she could've done it directly. The last time was a great opportunity. Why did she kill him directly but not Ding Ru? Why did she let him sacrifice his life to save her?
There must be a reason behind this. But no matter what it was, it was obvious that she had reservations and would not kill him directly.
Chu Li said, "That's why you're in the most danger now. You should hurry back and leave the rest to me."
"Do I have to hide from her forever?" Song Jing frowned.
She was also a proud and arrogant person but she was so scared that she could only hide. Only she knew the humiliation and pain she felt. She wanted to rush up and fight to the death with the Demon Sect Leader.
But she was still rational and knew that if she appeared in front of her, she would definitely die.
Chu Li smiled. "I'll just get rid of her."
"Heh!" Song Jing shook her head and laughed.
She did not think that he could defeat the Demon Sect Leader.
Not to mention his unprecedented talent, she would not allow Ding Ru to continue growing with the gap in their cultivation levels. He would definitely be on guard and could die at any time.
He would not be so lucky to be resurrected next time. The Demon Sect Leader would definitely be prepared and it would be foolproof.
Chu Li smiled. "Can't I deal with her?"
"Do you have any ideas?" Song Jing asked.
Chu Li said, "The more Demon Sect masters I kill, the faster my cultivation level will rise. I'll eventually be stronger than her!"
"She might not give you that chance!" Song Jing said.
She knew how terrifying the Demon Slaying Temple Leader was. She cultivated both Buddhism and Demonic Arts so she had almost no bottlenecks. The more Demon Sect disciples she killed, the stronger her cultivation level would become. She would not fall into a stagnation and it was as if she could become stronger endlessly.
Chu Li smiled. "I'll be more careful this time. I won't fall for it so easily!"
"I hope so." Song Jing nodded slowly.
The Demon Sect Leader was terrifyingly powerful and Ding Ru was not easy to deal with either. As long as she was careful, it was still unknown who would die. She might even have a chance of survival.
Chu Li said, "Remember not to come out again."
"You're worried that she'll play the same trick again and implicate you!" Song Jing nodded. "Don't worry, I won't come out again. This time, I'll definitely improve my cultivation!"
Chu Li smiled and pressed his palms together.
Song Jing took a deep look at him and floated away.
Chu Li let out a sigh of relief and furrowed his brows.
Without the threat of lightning, the Soul Lotus body that had been tempered by the hellfire had recovered its strength. However, it was impossible for it to threaten the Devil Sect's leader with its current cultivation. His mind kept replaying that palm strike.
In front of the Devil Sect's Sect Master, he was powerless.
He disappeared in a flash. The next moment, he appeared in front of a huge bald peak. He looked at the abyss in front of the huge peak. That was where the Divine Gate was. He guessed that Sun Mingyue was about to ascend.
After seeing him ascend, Sun Mingyue no longer had any reluctance to leave and would ascend as well. The matters of the Realm Beyond Heaven had already been taken care of, so there was no need for her to worry anymore. Other than Sun Mingyue, Lu Yurong would also ascend as well.
However, he had not sensed the two women, so he felt that they had not ascended yet.
On the other side, he lay in front of a valley and fainted.
As soon as he fainted, two young men in green rushed out of the valley. They were handsome and wore green robes. They approached and helped Chu Li up. At the same time, they checked Chu Li's injuries. Their faces instantly turned solemn.
"Isn't Senior Brother Zhang dead?" One of the young disciples frowned.
He had a square face and a dignified aura between his brows. It gave people a sense of trust when they saw him.
The other young man nodded. "He died in the hands of Monk Ding Ru."
His round face was smiling, smooth and gentle. It was very comfortable to look at.
When they saw Zhang Hanhen, who was disguised as Chu Li, return, they did not feel happy. Instead, they were full of doubts.
Everyone else saw Zhang Hanhen's death, especially those who saw it were the top young masters of each sect. They would not speak carelessly. Since they saw it with their own eyes, it should be true. Why did Zhang Hanhen suddenly appear?
Their first thought was that someone was impersonating him. Thus, they checked Chu Li's body and found that it was really the Heavenly Hatred Sea Emotion Power. This Heavenly Hatred Sea Emotion Power was a secret that was not passed down. No matter how powerful Heavenly Demonic Sect was, it was impossible for them to learn it.
"Let's go!" The two of them helped Chu Li into the ravine.
Their footsteps were unusually fast. After a few turns, they entered the ravine. Then, a young girl came out to welcome them. When she saw Chu Li's appearance, she was shocked. "Senior Brother Zhang? Senior Brother Zhang is back! "
She cried out in a sweet voice, instantly startling the entire ravine.
The people in the ravine came one after another. Soon, they surrounded Chu Li and looked at him curiously.
The young girl had been leaning in front of him. She tugged at Chu Li's sleeve. "Senior Brother Zhang? Wake up! Wake up! "
Chu Li slowly opened his eyes.
He smiled. "Junior Sister Lu!"
Now that the Great Circle Mystical Mirror had become more profound, and in the ravine, the disciples were not vigilant. They did not use any treasures to protect their minds, so he could clearly see their thoughts.
The young girl, Lu Hong, smiled sweetly. "Senior Brother Zhang, you're not dead?"
Chu Li sighed. "I don't understand what happened either. Why am I not dead?"
Lu Hong said, "Heaven helps the worthy. I've always believed that you're not dead, Senior Brother Zhang. Yet, they said that your head was chopped off and you're dead!"
Chu Li nodded. "It seems like my head was chopped off, but I somehow came back to life. It's really strange … After I woke up, I rushed back. Unfortunately, my martial arts was mostly crippled. I wanted to, but I couldn't."
"Senior Brother Zhang, it's good that you're alive!" Lu Hong said. "We've never seen that Monk Ding Ru. You must explain to everyone how to deal with that stupid monk!"
Chu Li revealed a fearful expression. He frowned and shook his head. "Junior Sister Lu, it's better not to talk about him."
Lu Hong looked at his expression and nodded knowingly. "Senior Brother Zhang, quickly recuperate. I'll lend you a hand!"
Chu Li shook his head. "I'll do it myself. What I want to understand the most is how I'm still alive!"
"Then someone must've saved you." Lu Hong smiled. "You must've met an extraordinary person, so you came back to life."
Chu Li pondered.
As they spoke, the crowd suddenly parted to reveal a middle-aged man and woman. The man was dressed in a green tunic and looked elegant. The woman was dressed in a pink palace dress and looked elegant and luxurious. They looked like a perfect couple and attracted everyone's attention.
"Sect Leader …" Everyone greeted him.
"Master!" Chu Li fist saluted. "Your unfilial disciple is back!"
He could read from everyone's minds that these two were the sect leader and vice sect leader of Heavenly Demonic Sect. The true sect leader, Fu Xiaoning, and the vice sect leader, Li Tianya.
Li Tianya frowned. "You used the Resentment Pearl too?"
"Yes." Chu Li nodded.
This master of his did not care about his safety and only cared about the treasure. It seemed like this master was very harsh.
Li Tianya asked, "Did you kill Monk Ding Ru?"
"No, he killed him instead," Chu Li said solemnly. "I was too careless!"
"I've already warned you time and again that you must be careful of that Monk Ding Ru. He's not that simple, but you've turned a deaf ear to everything!" Li Tianya said coldly, "So much so that you ended up dying!"
