Chu Li and Li Ruolan held their breaths and remained motionless.
The old man's gaze was so intense that it felt like cold water had been poured on them. They dared not move an inch.
Li Ruolan wanted to look up but Chu Li pulled her sleeve and stopped her when he noticed her intention.
He placed his right palm in front of her eyes to block her gaze.
The old man's abilities were shocking. If his gaze landed on her, it might even trigger his senses and attract his attention.
Li Ruolan was shocked. She knew that she had been careless. She nodded and closed her eyes to indicate that she understood.
She knew the method too.
The Thin Elder glanced at the four of them and shook his head.
The middle-aged man asked, "Master's Junior Liu, are we wrong?"
"You're following Hai Cang Mountain's thinking," the Thin Elder said, "What if it's the Reincarnation Temple? Would the monks from the Reincarnation Temple do what you're thinking if they're surrounded? "
The four people from the Reincarnation Temple frowned.
The Thin Elder scoffed. "Lil Guo, what do you think the monks from the Reincarnation Temple would do?"
"They're so arrogant!" The middle-aged man scoffed and sneered. "They'd face the challenge head-on and never retreat. They'd charge in!"
"If the monks from the Reincarnation Temple would do that, what about the disciples from the Holy Church of Light?" The Thin Elder shook his head. "These top sects have their own unique ways of doing things. However, they have one thing in common, which is their arrogance. The monks from the Reincarnation Temple are monks, so it's hard to avoid it. How can the Holy Church of Light be different?"
"Understood!" The four of them nodded.
The Thin Elder scoffed. "The two disciples from the Holy Church of Light will charge in even if they know that we'll set up an ambush. They won't hide in the south. That's why they'll charge in tonight or tomorrow night. Stay alert and don't make any mistakes!"
"Yes!" The four of them fist saluted.
The Thin Elder said, "This person's Light Blade is extremely overbearing. He turned Zhao Haiyun's head into mush. He couldn't be saved even after consuming a spirit pill. If the two of them escape, the people from Hai Cang Mountain will be humiliated. As disciples of Hai Cang Mountain, don't even think about raising your head in the Qiu Dynasty's martial arts world!"
"Yes!" The spirits of the four were roused, and killing intent flashed in their eyes.
He had to kill these two fellows from the Holy Church of Light to avenge Junior Brother Zhao. At the same time, he had to let everyone know that no matter which sect they were from, even if they were the number one sect in the Li Dynasty, only death awaited them for killing a disciple of Hai Cang Mountain!
The four of them leaped down and landed at the bottom of the canyon like four eagles circling in the air. Very quickly, they started a few bonfires. The blazing flames illuminated the small path at the bottom of the canyon. Another dozen or so torches were inserted into the mountain walls.
There was almost no place at the entrance of the canyon that could not be illuminated by the fire. Standing on the precipice, they could see everything clearly. It was impossible to hide in the shadows and avoid their eyes.
Chu Li frowned.
Through the Omniscient Mirror, he could see that there were twelve other masters hiding in the canyon. Their cultivation levels were similar to the four middle-aged men, and each of them was almost at the same level as Li Ruolan. If they surrounded him, he could escape, but Li Ruolan might not be able to.
In this way, there was no way he could sneak past without anyone noticing.
The Thin Elder suddenly leaped down and pounced toward the forest where Chu Li and Li Ruolan were hiding. He raised his voice and yelled, "Where are you hiding?!"
Li Ruolan did not move and looked at Chu Li.
She had already learned her lesson. Everything depended on Zhao Dahe. Zhao Dahe was a genius, not only in cultivation, but also in battle. He was like a natural-born general, always able to find the best way to deal with a situation.
In just a few months of experience, he had become more powerful than Li Ruolan who had trained for more than ten years. This was talent that could not be judged by common sense.
Chu Li reached out and pressed the back of Li Ruolan's head. Then, he lay down under the tree roots with her and did not move an inch. It was as if they had turned into a rock beside them.
Both of them were dressed in black. Even if the moonlight was bright, it could not reach the bottom of the tree. Even if they could see through the darkness and see through the night like it was daytime, they could not distinguish them from the trees, grass, and rocks around them.
"Boom!" They hit a tree twenty feet away from them. Suddenly, the tree branches creaked and fell slowly, dodging them.
The Elder's eyes swept past them like lightning.
Li Ruolan's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She was extremely nervous.
However, her heartbeat was extremely slow. She was using a Concealing Skill. Her heartbeat was even slower than a hibernating animal. After a long time, it would only jump slightly. Compared to the chirping of the insects around them, it was not worth mentioning.
Chu Li used the Life and Death Scripture and became one with the trees around him.
His cold, lightning-like gaze swept over again. In the end, he didn't stop. He floated up and landed on the precipice.
"Master's Junior Liu, did you really see them?"
"No." The Thin Elder shook his head. "It's just a feeling. They're in that forest!"
He pointed at the forest where Chu Li was. His eyes were bright and his tone was firm.
"That's easy!" The middle-aged man who spoke earlier said. "It's such a big forest. The four of us will be like a net. There's nowhere to run!"
"That's good too." The Thin Elder said. "The Light Blade is hard to defend against. You must be careful!"
"Understood!" The four middle-aged men said in a deep voice.
When they thought about Zhao Haiyun's death, their hair stood on end and their bodies tensed up.
Zhao Haiyun's cultivation level was not inferior to theirs since he was killed by the Light Blade even though he was wearing treasured clothing!
However, they had Master's Junior Liu above them. They were not afraid of them. Moreover, they might not dare to reveal themselves. Otherwise, they would definitely die!
