When Chu Li sent Li Meng to Snow Lunar Pavilion, Li Hanyan, who had just returned from her training, grumbled at him.
He did not visit her for a long time and did not care about her at all. She wanted to know how he killed an Enlightened Master, how he could kill one when he was still a Grandmaster, and if she could do it.
Her cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, but she was only a Grandmaster.
When he saw Lu Yurong's solemn expression, he knew it was not a trivial matter.
"His Majesty has ascended!" Lu Yurong said.
Under the moonlight, she looked like she was carved from white jade, her skin warm and translucent.
Chu Li was stunned. "Leng Wufeng has ascended?"
"Yes." Lu Yurong nodded slowly. "It happened two hours ago. His Highness the Crown Prince is now an Enlightened Master and the new Emperor."
Chu Li frowned. "Why did he suddenly ascend? Did he do it himself? "
"He was killed by someone." Lu Yurong said, "Just like Tang Haotian back then."
Chu Li asked, "Which one of them could have killed him?"
"I heard it was done by a Celestial," Lu Yurong said slowly.
"Celestial?" Chu Li scoffed. "Not Asura?"
"Asura came down too?" Lu Yurong frowned. "They came down so quickly?"
"You know?" Chu Li asked.
Lu Yurong said, "This is my speculation. I think that the Celestial Beings fought with Asura and were at a disadvantage, so they came down to recruit soldiers. They must have done this behind Asura's back, so they shouldn't have been discovered so quickly."
"If they could have kept it a secret for a long time, they wouldn't have lost!" Chu Li scoffed.
"That's true." Lu Yurong frowned and scoffed, then looked at him. "Xu An was supposed to inherit the throne, but it seems like it's too late. Once the Crown Prince ascends, King An's Imperial Residence will …"
King Jing looked kind on the outside, but he was harsh on the inside. If he wanted his son to inherit the throne, he would definitely eliminate anyone who could threaten Leng Wufeng, and the most important one was Xu An.
If Xu An was not eliminated, it would be difficult for Leng Wufeng to become an Enlightened Master. Although there was still a long way to go before the next Enlightened Master, they had to be careful because Xu An was a disciple of the Titanium Temple. Once he was successful, even an Enlightened Master would not be a threat.
Thus, if they wanted to act, they had to do it as soon as possible. They had to eliminate Xu An before he grew stronger.
Chu Li was the first obstacle to getting rid of Xu An. Lu Yurong did not need to think too much about it. She immediately concluded that King Jing would definitely deal with Chu Li. Even if Chu Li had a reputation of killing Enlightened Masters, King Jing, who had just obtained an overbearing power, would not take it to heart. He would only believe it if he tried it himself.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "I would like to experience the new Emperor's divine power."
"It's better to be careful. King Jing is more powerful than Leng Wufeng," Lu Yurong said. "Don't fail miserably and fall into his hands."
"Of course." Chu Li smiled. "Did you gain anything from the Mystical Lady of the Nine Heavens?"
"The harvest is huge, unimaginably huge." Lu Yurong sighed and said, "If I were to cultivate by myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach this level in my entire life. The Empyrean Fairy Power is truly mysterious."
Chu Li nodded.
Lu Yurong's current strength was not inferior to Xiao Qi, who was in isolated cultivation. It was as if the two of them had an agreement. One was strong, and the other was strong. Both of them were improving rapidly. Although there was still a huge gap between them, they were only slightly inferior to Enlightened Masters.
Although Lu Yurong did not have an Empyrean supporting her, she had the support of the Mystical Lady of the Nine Heavens. The Mystical Lady of the Nine Heavens was also an ancient sect that was showing signs of revival. Chu Li vaguely felt that there might be an Empyrean hiding behind it.
"Hehe, you're really here." Suddenly, a hearty laugh was heard.
The two of them turned to look.
A figure in bright yellow appeared in the void. It was King Jing, the new Emperor, Leng Shouren.
Chu Li gave a fist salute and said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Leng Shouren chuckled. "I'm afraid I've disappointed Chief Chu?"
