Lu Xi's eyes were sharp. The moment Chu Li used the Deva-Human Shedding Technique, his body slowed down. This was something that could not be overcome.
Even if he could multitask and activate different heart techniques at the same time, different heart techniques would conflict in his body, so he could only use the Deva-Human Shedding Technique first.
This moment of delay was seized by Lu Xi. Using the power of the formation, he struck Chu Li with his palm and severely injured him.
Chu Li watched as Liang Sheng approached him like a ghost. The Nine Kill Palm was about to hit him. He shook violently, and the wall suddenly rumbled. The moment it collapsed, he drilled out of the wall and left the range of the formation. He turned around and ran.
"If you run, we'll kill Song Wu!" Lu Xi said in a low voice.
Chu Li did not turn his head and shouted, "This is the Prophecy Pavilion, not a place for you to do whatever you want. You've wrongly accused me, Xu Hun, and you want to kill Senior Sister Song. Where is the justice!"
His shout echoed throughout the Prophecy Pavilion. His body suddenly sped up and shot out of the Prophecy Pavilion.
"Ah —!" Liang Sheng roared and chased after him.
Chu Li's voice came from afar, "I don't believe that the Pavilion Master will let you do whatever you want. He'll definitely give me justice, and give Senior Sister Song justice!"
Liang Sheng chased and shouted, "Bastard, if you're not guilty, then don't run, you traitor of the Holy Church of Light!"
Although he wanted to kill Chu Li with one palm, he did not have the thought of risking his life like last time.
After all, Liang Wen had been dead for a few days. His grief was not as strong as before, and he was worried about his lifespan. If he continued to burn it, it would shorten his lifespan by a lot, and he would not live for more than a few days. It was not worth it for such a guy. The sect could kill him, and he would not be able to escape.
Moreover, he saw that Chu Li was heavily injured, and he could take care of him without risking his life.
"Whether I'm a traitor or not, the Pavilion Master has the final say. You don't!" Chu Li's voice came again. It was thin and light, but it clearly spread throughout the Prophecy Pavilion.
"Ah —!" Liang Sheng was furious. He sped up again, and he could already see Chu Li's back.
Lu Xi's movement technique was extraordinarily fast as he followed closely behind. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, Old Liang. We can't catch up. This brat's cultivation is really powerful!"
Even the bluestone would have been cut in half by his solid palm strike. Xu Hun's flesh and blood body must have been severely injured, but he was still able to run so fast. Clearly, he had activated a secret technique.
Once he activated his Secret Technique with all his might, they would have no hope of catching up to him, unless they risked their lives and burned their lifespans like he did.
He had only made a move because of a favor. It was not worth it, so he thought of retreating.
Liang Sheng gritted his teeth. "I want to avenge my little brother!"
"Revenge is not in a short period of time. I reckon that after this, he will only have half a life left. When we return, we will ask the Pavilion Master to come out of seclusion and calculate his position."
Liang Sheng hesitated for a moment.
"Moreover, he still cares about Little Song. As long as Little Song is in the pavilion, he won't have to worry about where he can escape to." Lu Xi said in a low voice, "Your current situation is not good either, you have to take care of your body. If something unexpected happens to you, what will happen to Xiao Gu?"
Liang Sheng nodded slowly and stopped walking.
The two had already left the Prophecy Pavilion and turned around to walk back.
Chu Li hid behind a tree and spat out another mouthful of blood.
Spiritual energy surged from all directions and enveloped his body. It was as if he was immersed in a hot spring, his whole body was indescribably comfortable.
Although Lu Xi's palm strike was powerful, the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture had dissipated most of the force. Moreover, his body was much stronger than before, so his injuries were not as serious. After a short period of spiritual energy to heal himself, he had mostly recovered.
He pondered for a moment and silently returned to the Prophecy Pavilion.
The conversation between Chu Li and Liang Sheng had stirred up a pond of spring water. The Pavilion of Prophecy was bustling with activity. Groups of twos and threes gathered in a small courtyard to discuss the matter. They were especially concerned about Song Wu.
Chu Li found Tan Gu at a glance. He was surrounded by a few people in his courtyard and kept asking questions. He glanced over and saw Liang Sheng.
Lu Xi had already left his courtyard and returned to his own courtyard.
He hid in a room silently, waiting for Tan Gu to scold those people away. Then, in a flash, he appeared behind Tan Gu and silently restrained him.
Chu Li's expression changed and his figure followed suit. Soon, he turned into Tan Gu's appearance. He dispersed his cultivation level and used the Life and Death Scripture to hide in the void. Then, he slowly walked toward Liang Sheng's courtyard.
He heard the conversation between Liang Sheng and Lu Xi and knew that the pavilion master was in isolated cultivation. Therefore, his previous words probably did not alarm the pavilion master.
This made him heave a sigh of relief. It was fine as long as the pavilion master was not alarmed.
The person he was most afraid of was the pavilion master. He secretly laughed at himself for worrying over nothing. He felt that the pavilion master had been staring at him. It seemed like he was just scaring himself.
The pavilion master could not come out of isolated cultivation. Chu Li was unusually bold and wanted to return to teach Liang Sheng a lesson.
He arrived outside Liang Sheng's courtyard and gently knocked on the door.
The beautiful middle-aged woman glided over and opened the door. When she saw him, she smiled. "Young Gu, why are you here?"
Chu Li said casually, "Aunt, come and see uncle-in-law."
The beautiful middle-aged woman gently shook her head. "Your uncle-in-law is in a fit of anger. Why are you here?"
Chu Li said, "Didn't uncle-in-law teach that guy a lesson?"
"That guy is very difficult to deal with. Your uncle-in-law is scolding him." The beautiful middle-aged woman shook her head and entered the main hall.
When he entered the main hall, he saw Liang Sheng's face was pale but his eyes were burning. He was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back while muttering curses.
When he saw Chu Li in Tan Gu's appearance, Liang Sheng glared at him and scoffed angrily. "You bastard, what are you doing here!"
"Uncle-in-law." Chu Li shrunk his neck and helplessly said, "Calm down. It's not worth getting angry over that guy."
"What do you know!" Liang Sheng angrily scoffed. "He killed my little brother. Do you think I'm avenging you?"
Chu Li helplessly shook his head.
He took the teacup that the beautiful middle-aged woman brought over and smiled. "Aunt, I have something to say to uncle-in-law."
"You little brat, you still have things to hide from me!" The beautiful middle-aged woman rolled her eyes at him and pursed her lips into a smile. Then, she turned around and left.
Chu Li personally served the tea to Liang Sheng.
Liang Sheng reached out and took it.
Chu Li's sudden punch passed through his arms and hit Liang Sheng's chest. It was a solid punch.
Liang Sheng instantly froze and did not fly out. The strange force of the Divine Light Fist made him stay where he was and all the force was firmly injected into his body.
Two flying daggers turned into electric lights and shot toward him.
"Tss tss!" The two flying daggers pierced through his left and right eyes and came out from the back of his head.
Chu Li caught the falling teacup and gently placed it on the table. Then, he suddenly disappeared.
When he reappeared in the next moment, he was already holding Tan Gu in his hand and threw him beside Liang Sheng. The two daggers pierced through Tan Gu's eyes.
He picked up a flying dagger and cut off Liang Sheng's head. Then, he wrapped the dagger in a bag and left without a sound. He did not alert the beautiful middle-aged woman who was watering the flowers in the front yard and disappeared from the Prophecy Pavilion without anyone knowing.
He did this to conceal his identity.
With Lu Xi as a witness, no one would suspect that it was his Xu Hun incarnation. They would only think that it was a top-notch master from the Holy Church of Light.
No one from the Holy Church of Light would find out that he was Xu Hun, lest they found out that he knew the Transformation Technique and became suspicious.
