Chu Li's expression changed.
Zhou Shuang looked at him and said, "Monk Ding Ru, do you think you can hide the fact that you have one soul and two bodies from the world?"
Chu Li frowned. "Miss Zhou is really resourceful!"
"Of course, there's nothing the Lady doesn't know." Zhou Shuang nodded proudly. "Nothing can be hidden from the Lady!"
Chu Li shook his head. "It's just that you have people in the Outland."
He was able to have one soul and two bodies, freely roaming between the Sky Beyond Heaven and this world. In his eyes, a mystical item like the Sky Inspecting Credential was strange and mysterious. Perhaps in Miss Zhou's eyes, she didn't think much of it. In fact, such a treasure existed.
Therefore, if he could travel freely between the two worlds, Miss Zhou might be able to as well. Otherwise, she would not have been able to grasp the timing of the two women's ascension so precisely.
"Should I call you Ding Ru or Chu Li?" Zhou Shuang scoffed. "Don't think that you're better than the Lady. You're nothing compared to the Lady."
"I haven't heard anyone call me Chu Li for a long time …" Chu Li sighed and shook his head. "Miss Zhou knows both worlds and three worlds?"
His original name was rarely mentioned. In the Outland, even if people mentioned his name, they would only refer to him as Mr. Chu or that person. They would never mention his name.
Zhou Shuang raised her thin eyebrows and scoffed. "Are you trying to get information from me?"
Chu Li said, "I'd like to know how resourceful Miss Zhou is."
"There's no harm in telling you." Zhou Shuang scoffed. "The Lady has transcended the mortal world and is not in the Five Worlds."
Chu Li pondered. "If that's the case, she can travel freely between worlds."
"Yes." Zhou Shuang said, "You're digging your own grave by going against the Lady. Now that you've come this far, kill yourself and the Lady will see that they're talented and put them in an important position!"
Chu Li was silent.
Zhou Shuang scoffed. "Are you going back on your word? … If the two of you kill yourselves, you won't have a chance to be resurrected. Are you reluctant? "
"… Alright, I want to see them first," Chu Li said slowly.
Zhou Shuang said, "Sure, I'll bring you there!"
Chu Li nodded slowly.
"Let's go!" Zhou Shuang waved her left sleeve and a white ribbon flew towards him.
Chu Li reached out to take it, and the two of them disappeared from where they stood.
The next moment, Chu Li appeared on a mountain peak. It was so majestic that he could overlook the surrounding peaks and lush green trees.
"They're over there." Zhou Shuang pointed at the opposite peak.
Chu Li looked at the mountain peak.
This mountain was not eye-catching. Among the surrounding mountains, no one would pay attention to it. It was not tall, nor was it steep. The trees were lush, but they were not too dense either. Everything seemed ordinary.
"This is …?" Chu Li frowned.
He sensed something strange.
This peak was ordinary and inconspicuous, not its original appearance. There was a formless power swirling about it that prevented others from paying attention to it, so they naturally overlooked it.
He was the most sensitive to this kind of power, and he could feel the faintly discernible waves.
"What do you think?" Zhou Shuang asked.
Chu Li frowned. "I don't know."
The Great Circle Profound Sky Mirror was blocked by an invisible force, preventing Zhang Xuan from seeing what was going on inside. It was as if a layer of fog had shrouded the mirror, and Zhang Xuan could vaguely make out the silhouettes of the two women, as well as a familiar aura.
They were all practicing their palm techniques. Their movements were graceful and their expressions were focused. They did not sense his approach.
"The Star Seizing Sect," Zhou Shuang said.
Chu Li turned to look at her.
Zhou Shuang raised her slender eyebrows and scoffed. "What, you don't believe me?"
Chu Li said, "Miss Zhou doesn't seem to get along with the Star Seizing Sect?"
"Who said so!" Zhou Shuang said coldly. "Anyway, they're both disciples of the Star Seizing Sect, but they're still outer disciples. They need to work hard to enter the inner sect. Should we let them out?"
"No need." Chu Li shook his head. "Miss, are you a disciple of the Star Seizing Sect too?"
"Yes." Zhou Shuang nodded.
Chu Li's mind raced.
It seemed like he and the rest of the world had been deceived. The Star Seizing Sect and Miss Zhou were not enemies, but rather had a close relationship. Moreover, she had been to Xuankong City and was well-versed in the martial arts and mental cultivation methods of the two great sects.
Chu Li felt a chill in his heart.
Even with the support of the Heaven's Eye, his divination skills could not compare to Miss Zhou's!
Zhou Shuang said, "Are you really not going to meet them and say goodbye?"
Chu Li smiled. "No need."
"… Alright." Zhou Shuang's eyes flashed, and her cold face softened. "Don't worry, the Lady will not mistreat them. They're very talented and will definitely shine in the future!"
Chu Li said, "As for my suicide, I hope Miss Zhou will keep it a secret and not let the world know."
"Of course." Zhou Shuang nodded. "Only you, me, and the Lady will know about this."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Zhou Shuang said, "Have you given up now? When are you going to kill yourself? "
Chu Li calmly glanced at the mountain and smiled. "Give me a few days to settle the Demon Slaying Hall."
"How many days?" Zhou Shuang asked.
Chu Li thought for a while. "Three days!"
"Alright!" Zhou Shuang scoffed. "If you don't kill yourself, I'll kill you myself!"
Chu Li nodded.
Zhou Shuang waved her hand and suddenly disappeared without a trace, without a sound or presence.
Chu Li stood in place silently, but he realized that his surroundings had changed. He had unknowingly been teleported away.
The mountain he went to earlier and the mountain where the Star Seizing Sect was located was also an independent world. It was incompatible with this world and could not be entered. Teleportation would not be able to find it.
Just like his Demon Slaying Hall, outsiders could not barge in.
If he wanted to enter the Star Seizing Sect again, he could only look for Zhou Shuang or a disciple of the sect.
It was almost impossible for him to rescue the two women. Miss Zhou must have predicted his plan and would be prepared.
He was also at a mountain peak, and the strong wind blew against his face, causing his clothes to flutter.
He stood motionless like a statue on the mountain peak, letting the wind blow against him. His mind spun as he searched for a chance of survival.
If he did not want to kill himself, he had to find a way out. With his current cultivation level, it was impossible for him to escape. He had to find a way to turn the situation around, or he would definitely die.
This time, she would definitely guard against his resurrection. The Life and Death Scripture might not work. If she crushed his bones and scattered his soul, the Life and Death Scripture would not be able to resurrect him no matter how powerful it was.
He was not afraid of death, but he did not want to die in such a sullen way.
An idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought of the Passing Light Divine Sword.
If he found the Passing Light Divine Sword, he would have hope. With the Passing Light Divine Sword, he would be able to compete with Miss Zhou and protect the two women.
Thinking of this, he became spirited and began to deduce with his eyes closed.
Rays of inspiration flashed through his mind. He tried his best to capture it, but he was always a hair's breadth away. He could not find the Passing Light Divine Sword. It involved the mysteries of heaven and was too important. It was almost impossible to deduce it.
At this juncture, Chu Li did not care if it was possible or not. He was desperate. In the blink of an eye, the void in his mind buzzed, and the Buddha and the demon began to blur.
If this continued, they would all collapse.
