"Damn it!" The smile on Tang Xu's face froze. His initial smugness turned into anger as he gritted his teeth and slammed his palm on the ground. A deep pit silently appeared.
The twenty Celestial Beings looked solemn. Chu Li's martial arts was beyond imagination.
After all, the Celestial Beings' Heavenly Human Field had completely locked the space so that he could not escape. It could be said to be foolproof.
However, this foolproof method was broken by him. This meant that Chu Li was unrestrained in front of them. He could fight and leave as he pleased. Everyone was in a passive position.
"He actually escaped!" An old man said in a deep voice, "Looks like we need to find more people!"
"Those who can come are here." Tang Xu shook his head. "Elder Qi, all the Celestial Beings in the Fu Dynasty who are not frightened by Chu Li are here. It's impossible for anyone else to come."
"It can't be?" Elder Qi's skin was as dark as iron. He was thin and tall, exuding a tough aura. It was obvious that he was a man of his word.
Tang Xu smiled bitterly. "Chu Li has killed many Celestial Beings and Asuras. He even forced the Grandmaster's Order to withdraw. It's enough to form a strong deterrent."
"These people are a disgrace to the Celestial Beings!" Qi He scoffed in disdain. "They let a mere Enlightened Master be so frivolous. It's simply …"
Tang Xu nodded without changing his expression. "That's right. An unorthodox Enlightened Master like Chu Li is not accepted by the Grandmaster. Everyone has the right to kill him. He shouldn't live in this world!"
He cursed in his heart. These dog fart celestial beings were all arrogant and conceited. They thought that they came from the Sky Beyond Heaven, so they looked down on the people of this world like pigs and dogs. How could they not know that in his eyes, these dog fart celestial beings had no brains at all?
Qi He said coldly, "All the more reason for us to kill him. We'll show all the Celestial Beings that as long as we work together, no one can kill a Celestial Being!"
He was furious about the Celestial Beings being killed. The dignity of the Celestial Beings could not be violated. They were existences higher than everyone in this world. How could they be beaten down to the mortal world and killed by the people of this world?
This was unforgivable. Moreover, the Celestial Beings would return to the Grandmaster after death. What was there to be afraid of? At most, they would just die. Therefore, even though they knew that Chu Li was powerful and could kill Celestial Beings like drinking water, they still came to kill him.
The Celestials following behind him all had the same thought.
Tang Xu nodded and said, "That's right, that's right. Moreover, the most abominable thing about Chu Li is his evil martial arts. He usually kills his enemies until their souls vanish and they can't return to the Grandmaster's Boundary."
He knew that he shouldn't have said this, but when he saw Qi He's arrogant attitude, he couldn't help but poke at him.
"His soul was destroyed?" Qi He's expression changed slightly.
As soon as Tang Xu saw his expression, he cursed inwardly. Hastily he laughed and said, "This is only a rumor. This kind of martial art must come at a great cost, he might not dare to use it."
"I see." Qi He nodded slowly.
He knew what Tang Xu was thinking. Tang Xu felt that he was easy to deceive and could easily fool him with a few tricks. However, he didn't know that Tang Xu couldn't be bothered to care about these things and couldn't be bothered to play tricks.
These little tricks were not worth mentioning at all, so he disdained them.
He was too lazy to play these little tricks, but it did not mean that he was stupid. From Tang Xu's expression, he knew that what he said was true. Chu Li could really destroy a person's soul.
In this case, he had to be careful. Dignity was important, but life was more important. He came to this world to recruit soldiers and buy horses, to develop more Grandmasters.
These Grandmasters would kill each other in the chaos and eventually ascend to the Grandmaster's Boundary, becoming a Grandmaster. After recovering their strength, they would become a Celestial and would be a strong support against the Asura Boundary.
This was just a mission. There was no need to lose his life because of battle spirit. The Celestial Boundary was extremely long, dying here without ascending to heaven would be a great loss.
When he thought of this, he had the intention to retreat.
Tang Xu said, "From what I know, this Chu Li is very narrow-minded. Once you become his enemy, you must kill him as soon as possible to eliminate him completely."
"Then we can only kill him!" Qi He nodded and sighed. "He's really a troublesome person!"
"Yes, yes." Tang Xu smiled bitterly. "To tell you the truth, Elder Qi, he's not the key. If he didn't have any backing, I would've dealt with him long ago."
"Goddess Attraction Mountain?" Qi He asked.
Tang Xu nodded forcefully. "Zhou Dunli that old man is not easy to deal with. If I kill Chu Li, Zhou Dunli will definitely kill my children and grandchildren. It's not worth it. Now, Zhou Dunli is mostly crippled, and the golden dragon is also heavily injured. It will take eighty to a hundred years to recover. It's a good chance to kill Chu Li!"
"Aren't you afraid that Zhou Dunli will take revenge after he recovers?" Qi He smiled faintly.
Tang Xu scoffed. "Don't we still have everyone?"
"So he's making us take the blame!" Qi He laughed.
Tang Xu laughed. "Of course, it's still a little difficult for me to kill Chu Li alone. This kid is getting stronger and stronger. With the help of the Celestials, killing him will be a piece of cake."
"Now that I look at it, it's really not that easy," Qi He said.
It felt like a piece of cake, but in the end, it was clear that he was cunning. To be able to escape from the Twenty Celestial Grounds, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
"The monk can run, but the temple can't." Tang Xu smiled. "Let's go straight to Goddess Attraction Mountain!"
"Goddess Attraction Mountain." Qi He hesitated for a moment.
Goddess Attraction Mountain's status was rather special. They could freely enter and exit the Outland and even the Heavenly Courtyard. If they really did something to Goddess Attraction Mountain, they would probably be punished for no reason.
Tang Xu saw his concern and smiled. "Elder Qi, don't worry. You don't have to show yourselves later. I'll lure Chu Li out. Once we reach Goddess Attraction Mountain, you'll have a legitimate reason."
"Hmm, that's good." Qi He nodded slowly.
"Then let's go to Goddess Attraction Mountain!" Tang Xu said excitedly.
He had been looking forward to this day. He wanted to destroy Goddess Attraction Mountain and push down the only mountain above him. Once Goddess Attraction Mountain fell, the Tang Family would rule the world!

Chu Li suddenly appeared at the Hundred-Thousand Hills' ice pool in a flash.
As soon as he appeared, the surface of the ice pool began to churn. Then, a Green Dragon slowly floated out of the water and lay lazily on the huge lotus formed by the pool water.
Another huge water lotus appeared as well. It was the Vitality Devouring Tortoise lying on top of it. It had regained its hill-sized appearance and was lazily poking its head out.
Chu Li could not help but laugh. He did not expect them to be here.
Especially the Vitality Devouring Tortoise. It should be lying on Black Tortoise Mountain.
He quickly read the reason from the Vitality Devouring Tortoise's mind. It wanted to come back for a breather before going back. How willful. He went forward and touched the tortoise's shell.
The Green Dragon lazily stretched its body. A green light flashed, revealing its elegance.
Chu Li saw that they were progressing slowly. It would still take a long time for them to reach rank one. However, once his cultivation level was higher, he could help them cultivate. Their progress would accelerate and they would soon reach rank one.
However, this time, he did not come to improve their cultivation level. He still wanted to find spirit herbs.
At this moment, a clear whistle was heard.
The Green Dragon and the Vitality Devouring Tortoise immediately twisted their bodies uneasily. Then, they were carried back into the ice pool by the water lotus. The next moment, a red shadow flashed and the little Vermillion Bird appeared.
She immediately jumped onto Chu Li's shoulder. Her voice rang in his mind. "You still dare to come back?"
Chu Li smiled. "Why not?"
