Chu Li sighed. "How cruel."
"Monk Ding Ru, it's up to you whether you live or die," Zhou Shuang said coldly.
Zhou Mei smiled. "Let's see how stubborn you are. Do you want to die, or do you want to stubbornly defend the Demon Slaying Hall?"
Chu Li said, "If I die, I die. Why don't you kill me now?"
"Do you think we won't dare?" Zhou Mei scoffed. Her bright eyes were glaring at him. She raised her Passing Light Divine Sword as if she was ready to stab him.
No matter how powerful he was, he would definitely die if he was stabbed by the Passing Light Divine Sword.
Chu Li smiled calmly. "What joy is there in life and fear in death? Why don't you do it now and stab me to death? Everyone will be happy and there won't be any trouble."
"Hmph, since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish." Zhou Mei raised her sword.
Zhou Shuang stopped her. "Forget it, don't fall into his trap."
"Oh, then he's asking for death on purpose." Zhou Mei tilted her head and looked at Chu Li. "Looks like you're tired of living and want to die."
Chu Li smiled calmly. "Since I'm in your hands, Miss Zhou won't let me go. Why don't you just go to the Western Paradise?"
"You wish." Zhou Mei rolled her eyes at him. "Tell me, are you going to surrender?"
Chu Li shook his head.
Zhou Mei said, "It's not up to you if you're in our hands."
Chu Li smiled. "I'm not willing to surrender. What can you do to me?"
"Bam!" Zhou Mei suddenly slammed her palm on his chest. It sounded like a drum.
Chu Li froze again.
Zhou Mei plucked a string of Buddhist prayer beads from his neck. She smiled as she sized up the string of Buddhist prayer beads. She snorted and said, "Tell me, if I bring this string of Buddhist prayer beads to the Great Mercy Temple, what will they do?"
Chu Li frowned and smiled. "The Abbot won't fall for it."
"What if I ask the Heavenly Demonic Sect disciples to wear these prayer beads and enter the Great Mercy Temple?" Zhou Mei scoffed. "Will it be difficult to fool the Great Mercy Temple?"
Chu Li's expression changed slightly. He then shook his head and smiled. "It won't work."
"Hmph, you're underestimating our abilities." Zhou Mei snorted a few times. She pouted her red lips and said, "If I were to personally go to the Great Mercy Temple, the Great Mercy Temple would not be able to discover us at all. Moreover, we still have this."
Chu Li said, "Let's give it a try then."
Zhou Shuang shook her head and said, "Since we're not going to the Great Mercy Temple, why don't we go to the Mist Peak?"
Chu Li's expression immediately changed.
He had expected them to know about Xiao Qi, but Xiao Qi was now in isolated cultivation in the small world, so it was difficult to find her. Therefore, he was not worried about Xiao Qi. He was only worried about Lu Yurong and Sun Mingyue.
Now that Sun and Lu had entered the Demon Subduing Hall to cultivate in seclusion, there was no need to worry about their safety.
But Zhou Shuang's move was vicious.
He could take his prayer beads to Mist Peak and ask them to summon Xiao Qi back. Then, he could use the prayer beads to lure Xiao Qi to a certain place where she would be controlled by them. When he thought of this situation, he felt inexplicably anxious.
As the saying goes, concern leads to chaos. No matter how calm he was, he couldn't help but feel anxious when he thought of the worst case scenario.
"Ding Ru, you're such a sentimental person." Zhou Mei sneered and pouted her red lips. "As a monk and the Demon Subduing Hall Leader, you have three women."
Zhou Shuang nodded. "I heard that Xiao Qi is also a top-notch beauty."
Zhou Mei scoffed. "You're shameless. You still have the nerve to be a monk? You should've returned to secular life earlier."
Zhou Shuang looked at him from head to toe and said slowly, "You don't betray Buddha, you don't betray women. You have so many women, but you have a profound dharmic base. Master Ding Ru, how did you do it?"
Chu Li said, "The fear of the impermanence of the world, the fear of loss, and the fear of fate are endless worries. To get rid of these worries, you need dharmic base. With a profound dharmic base, it'll be easier to study dharmic base when you have worries."
Zhou Shuang frowned and thought about it, then shook her head.
Because she practiced martial arts, she had also studied the Dharma, but she could not understand it. She felt that it was complicated and complicated, as vast as the sea. She sincerely admired those who had profound Dharma. However, she still had to do what she had to do.
She sighed. "Let's talk inside."
She turned and pushed open the gate, then walked along the flower-filled path. Then, she pushed open the door of the thatched cottage and entered.
Zhou Mei patted Chu Li's back.
Chu Li regained his mobility and followed her into the thatched cottage. Zhou Mei held the Passing Light Divine Sword and swung it gently. She was filled with excitement from recovering something she had lost and then followed Chu Li into the thatched cottage.
The thatched cottage was clean, bright, and decorated simply.
The three of them sat on three cattail hassocks on the floor.
Zhou Shuang and Zhou Mei sat opposite him and quietly looked at him.
Chu Li calmly looked at them.
Zhou Mei said, "Hmph, it's useless to be stubborn now. We have ways to make you surrender."
Zhou Shuang nodded. "Master Ding Ru, you should know that resistance is useless at this point. You can either surrender or let your women die first, and then you'll die with them."
Zhou Mei scoffed. "If you don't go back, the two women hiding in Demon Subduing Hall will die, right?"
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. "Demon Subduing Hall is enough for them to live for the rest of their lives."
"Alright, then they'll be trapped there like prisoners for the rest of their lives." Zhou Mei scoffed. "They'd rather die."
Chu Li smiled without saying a word.
The two felt helpless when they saw his expression. They could not torture him. As an eminent monk, he did not care about physical pain. If they wanted him to surrender, they would have to rely on his women.
"Master Ding Ru, I might as well tell you the truth." Zhou Shuang sighed. "If you don't surrender, your women will be the ones suffering. Xiao Qi won't be able to hide in Mist Peak. We have our ways to make her come out of isolation. Also, it's not easy to make her beg for death."
Chu Li smiled. "That depends on your abilities. The Passing Light Divine Sword is very powerful, but I don't think I've been able to unleash its full potential."
"Of course. If you don't know the Passing Light Divine Sword's Sword Kinesis heart technique, how can you unleash its full potential?" Zhou Mei said proudly. "You've obtained the sword, but not the Sword Kinesis heart technique."
Chu Li smiled. "Do you know the Sword Kinesis heart technique?"
"Of course we do." Zhou Mei said proudly. "However, this heart technique is too difficult. We haven't been able to cultivate it. Otherwise, you'd be long dead."
Chu Li nodded thoughtfully.
It was no wonder.
The Passing Light Divine Sword that he had derived was so terrifying. After he obtained it, although its power was great, it was not earth-shattering. There was a huge gap. It turned out that it was because of the Sword Kinesis heart technique.
Zhou Mei said, "What else do you want to ask? Ask quickly."
She would take it as returning Chu Li's favor.
Chu Li said, "There's also the Heaven Suppression Seal and the Sky Piercing Seal. These two seals were given to you by Miss Zhou, right?"
"It's good that you understand," Zhou Mei said.
Chu Li pondered. "Are these two seals also extraterrestrial objects?"
"Of course. This world doesn't have such wonderful treasures." Zhou Mei nodded.
Zhou Shuang said, "It's not a shame that you lost to them. They were originally unstoppable."
"Ding Ru, you're asking for trouble by fighting against Lady Xiao." Zhou Mei scoffed. "It's better to surrender and become a family. Back then, Lady Xiao gave you the Passing Light Divine Sword, but you didn't even appreciate it. You deserve a beating."
