Chu Li replied, "I killed him."
"You … you …" Elder Du pointed at him as his baby-like face turned even redder. "Do you know what you're doing?!"
Chu Li scoffed. "That guy deserves to die, he deserves to die!"
"Do you know that he's the son of an Enlightened Master? How could an Enlightened Master not do anything when his son is dead?" Elder Du yelled. "Are you crazy? How dare you provoke an Enlightened Master? "
Chu Li grinned. "Honorable Master Du, I'm fine now, aren't I?"
"You're fine because the Heavenly Demon Statue stopped him!" Elder Li said coldly. "But can you stay in Heavenly Demonic Sect forever?"
"It's fine if I go out. He doesn't know me anyway!" Chu Li laughed.
Elder Du said impatiently, "Aren't you smart? Why don't you think about how he found this place? "
Chu Li frowned. "Maybe I have something that he can track down? Something like the Soul-chasing Incense? "
"An Enlightened Master's tricks are unfathomable. Catching you is a piece of cake. You'll definitely die!" Fu Qingya said, "If you want to live, stay in Heavenly Demonic Sect and leave after a year."
Chu Li laughed. "An Enlightened Master is indeed powerful, but our Heavenly Demon Statue is even more powerful. What's so special about it?"
"The Heavenly Demon Statue's special isn't something you can understand," Fu Qingya said. Fu Qingya said, "But you can't fathom how powerful an Enlightened Master is, so you should just hide in the sect."
Chu Li asked, "Didn't he get chased away?"
"He only retreated temporarily. He doesn't dare to enter Heavenly Demonic Sect, but he might be waiting for you outside. Once he leaves, he'll definitely kill you. He must avenge his son!" Fu Qingya shook his head. "You're really reckless. You think that you're so powerful that you don't know your limits!"
Chu Li chuckled.
"Leave!" Fu Qingya said impatiently. "I'll send you the Heavenly Demonic Stone later!"
Chu Li fist saluted and left.
After he left, Elder Bai sighed. "This young man is getting more and more troublesome."
He had mixed feelings. Provoking an Enlightened Master required a certain level of confidence, and being able to escape from an Enlightened Master was something to be proud of.
"Fortunately, we have the Sky Demon Statue." The other three elders shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Fu Qingya said, "I'll be guarding the basilica for a while to prevent the Enlightened Masters from returning."
"You'll come again?"
Fu Qingya replied, "He's probably injured, so he won't be fighting again for the time being."
"That's good." The four Grand Elders sighed in relief.
The activation of the Heavenly Demon Statue was not that easy. Every time it was activated, it would take two days for it to recover. If the Heavenly God came again, they might not be able to hold on.
"This is very troublesome." Fu Qingya frowned.
"This bastard brat, he's finally in big trouble!" Elder Bai snorted.
Fu Qingya said, "It's too late to say anything now. Let's think about how we can solve this. Fortunately, we're offending the Great Ji Dynasty's emperor, but this will also shock the other countries. They'll be even more wary of Heavenly Demonic Sect's disciples."
"Ai …" The four Grand Elders sighed helplessly.
The disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect were already afraid of them. Now, the situation had worsened.
Fu Qingya said, "But this is both a bad and a good thing. They'll be even more wary of Heavenly Demonic Sect. They won't dare to harm Heavenly Demonic Sect's disciples because they're afraid that they'll seek revenge!"
"That's true." Elder Du laughed. "This brat has done too much. It's scary."
"If he's safe and sound, Heavenly Demonic Sect's reputation will be fully established." Fu Qingya said, "Even the Eight Major Sects won't dare to act recklessly. Even if Heavenly Demonic Sect can't join the Eight Major Sects, we'll still be on par with them!"
The four Grand Elders smiled and nodded.
Heavenly Demonic Sect's strength would make them worry and be wary of Heavenly Demonic Sect if they could escape and protect themselves after provoking an Enlightened Master.
In the martial arts world, the strong were respected. Humility and keeping a low profile were the most useful.
Fu Qingya waved his hand and left.
Just as Chu Li returned to his room, Fu Qingya brought him a palm-sized Heavenly Demonic Stone.
Chu Li curled his lips and did not say much. It seemed that Heavenly Demonic Sect did not have many Heavenly Demonic Stones. Even the sect leader was so stingy.
As soon as the Heavenly Demonic Stone was placed on the back of his head, a cool air soon entered his mind.
He was becoming more familiar with the Heavenly Demonic Stone's cool air. The next morning, when he opened his eyes, the void in his mind appeared again. The Heavenly Demonic Stone had healed the injury on his soul until it was almost healed.
The Buddha and the Heavenly Demon in the void in his mind also had healing effects. Through the glowing lotuses, Chu Li's soul was strengthened and recovered to its original state.
He used the Omniscient Mirror to observe the Heavenly Demon Statue again and felt regretful that he did not get to see the battle with the Enlightened Master. If he could see it clearly, he might be able to understand some of the wonders of the Heavenly Demon Statue.
What delighted him the most was that after this attack, the Heavenly Demon Statue dispersed the Enlightened Master's energy in the void of his mind as he had expected. The imprint left behind by Leng Wufeng had also disappeared.
He put the Heavenly Demonic Stone down but did not take it with him. Then, he suddenly disappeared and reappeared on a mountaintop in the Li Dynasty. He sat there quietly to see if Leng Wufeng could find him and if the imprint had really disappeared.
After a long while, Leng Wufeng still did not show up.
If there was really an imprint, Leng Wufeng would have been here long ago.
Chu Li had learned that Enlightened Masters also had abilities that were similar to divine powers. For example, when he cultivated the Heavenly Demonic Power to his current level, he had an ability that was similar to God's Limbs. Although it was not as far away as God's Limbs, it was more agile.
God's Limbs and the Heavenly Demonic Power complemented each other perfectly.
Chu Li was completely relieved, so he prepared to return to the Fairy's Capital of the Great Ji Dynasty and settle in King An's Imperial Residence.
Without King An, King An's Imperial Residence would naturally be run by Consort Siao Shi. This would greatly benefit the High Duke's Public House as the Imperial Residence and the High Duke's Public House would be more powerful if they worked together. However, since there was only one mistress in the Imperial Residence, Leng Wufeng would not be too afraid of her.
—
The High Duke's Public House
The brightly lit Jade Guardian Island looked no different from daytime and was even more beautiful than it was during the day.
Siao Shi and Siao Qi sat in a gazebo in the garden while Suru served them tea and snacks. The two sisters were not in the mood to talk as they were both worried about Chu Li. Assassinating a prince was a matter of life and death.
Siao Shi sighed faintly. "I really don't know if he can pull through this."
"It's okay." Siao Qi shook her head.
She had a strange feeling that she could feel Chu Li's existence. Even though he was thousands of miles away, she could still feel him and knew that he was still alive.
With a clear chirp, a white sparrow turned into a white light and landed on her shoulder.
Siao Qi took the bamboo tube from the white sparrow's claw and opened it to take a look. She sighed. "King An is dead. The Emperor has ordered to search the world to find the murderer!"
"He's really dead?" Siao Shi smiled.
Siao Qi said, "The Emperor has drawn a portrait and sent an order to the world to reward him."
"He's really anxious this time!" Siao Shi scoffed.
"The Emperor's portrait is of Du Feng. He used Du Feng's identity to kill King An." Siao Qi frowned. "I'm afraid Snow Lunar Pavilion will be implicated."
Siao Shi frowned. "Why did Chu Li use this identity?"
Siao Qi slowly shook her head.
Siao Shi said, "He can't be that stupid, right? Could it be that he has a grudge against Snow Lunar Pavilion? "
