PS: Update complete. Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
Sun Mingyue frowned. "Why?"
She was the one who commanded the troops and disliked interference the most.
"Mo Qianjun has a grudge against me. He'll vent his anger on them," Chu Li said. "Moreover, Falling Autumn City is too dangerous for them. Once Zhi Shan appears, they won't be able to fight back."
"Someone will deal with Monk Zhi Shan," Sun Mingyue said.
Chu Li shook his head. "The person you sent to deal with Monk Zhi Shan might not be able to find him. He's very cunning!"
"Falling Autumn City is short of manpower. Most patrols have gone there." Sun Mingyue shook her head. "Moreover, I don't believe that Altar Leader Mo will use his position to avenge his personal grudge. After all, you're his only enemy."
"You don't know Mo Qianjun well, do you?" Chu Li scoffed. "He looks heroic but he's narrow-minded. He'll definitely take revenge on Senior Sister Li!"
"He won't hurt her no matter what," Sun Mingyue said.
"Hmph, that might not be the case!" Chu Li said.
Sun Mingyue cast a sidelong glance at him, revealing an impatient expression.
Chu Li knew that it would be counterproductive if he said anything else. He scoffed and stopped talking. Since he had already sent his men, it was useless to say anything else.
The two returned to Great Light Peak. Chu Li went to the Spirit Medicine Nursery to heal while Sun Mingyue returned to Divine Light Basilica.
In the early morning, Chu Li was sitting in his small house to heal when someone knocked on his door. Chu Li said, "Come in!"
Ji Xin strode in with red eyes. "Junior Brother Zhao!"
Chu Li noticed that something was wrong. "What happened?"
"Junior Sister Li has entered Great Light Surpassing State!" Ji Xin almost choked.
"Impossible!" Chu Li frowned. "Are you saying that Senior Sister Li is dead?"
"Yes, she entered Great Light Surpassing State with Senior Sister Lu!" Ji Xin gritted his teeth and nodded slowly.
Chu Li shook his head. "Don't joke around!"
Ji Xin said, "Junior Brother Zhao, do you think I would joke about this?"
Chu Li's face darkened. "Impossible!"
He knew that people in the martial arts world danced with death, but his good friends had never died. Even when there was danger, there were panaceas and the Sky Stealing Technique, so he had never really experienced the death of his friends.
He felt that Li Ruolan's trip was ominous, but he had already made ample preparations. He had given them the jade pendant and planned to unleash his God's Limbs at the risk of exposing himself to save their lives at the critical moment.
They still had the Light Pill with them. If they ate one before the battle, they wouldn't die no matter how heavy their injuries were, unless their heads were directly chopped off. However, as long as they weren't afraid of being injured, they would trade injuries for injuries, and it was almost impossible for them to be beheaded.
Logically speaking, he should have been absolutely safe with these methods, but he still died!
"Who killed him?"
"Monk Zhi Shan!" Ji Xin gritted his teeth.
Chu Li gritted his teeth. "Zhi Shan! Utmost Kindness! "
Ji Xin's eyes reddened as he took a deep breath and said, "I'm useless and I can't avenge Junior Sister Li. I can only rely on you, Junior Brother Zhao. You must kill Baldy Zhi Shan or Junior Sister Li won't be able to rest in peace!"
Chu Li asked, "Have they really entered Great Light Surpassing State?"
"They activated the Secret Technique of Great Light and eventually transformed into a beam of light that entered the Great Light Surpassing State!" Ji Xin nodded slowly.
This comforted him.
For those who cultivated the Great Light Scripture, it was all for this final step, to be able to step into the Great Light Surpassing State and escape the cycle of reincarnation. Once they entered the Surpassing State, they would continue to cultivate, and there would still be a chance for them to survive.
Chu Li's face darkened and he did not say a word.
Who knew what was going on in the Great Light Surpassing State? However, to this world, Li Ruolan and Lu Zhen were already dead!
He had been trying to accept this piece of news, but he always felt that it was unreal. It was as if Ji Xin was just joking and would soon tell him that Junior Sister Li was still alive because someone else had made a mistake!
After a while, he said in a deep voice, "They met Monk Zhi Shan before they even reached Falling Autumn City?"
"They died in Falling Autumn City." Ji Xin shook his head.
Chu Li asked, "The strength of Falling Autumn City hasn't increased?"
"The Holy Church has already sent out Law King Fang Qingyang." Ji Xin scoffed. "However, I heard that the Priest couldn't make it in time and got entangled. By the time the Priest arrived, Junior Sister Li and Junior Sister Lu had already ascended into the sky!"
Chu Li gritted his teeth, stood up and walked out.
"Junior Brother Zhao!" Ji Xin immediately called out.
Chu Li turned to look at him.
Ji Xin asked, "Junior Brother Zhao, where are you going?"
"I'm going to look for the Saint!" Chu Li said coldly.
"Why?" Ji Xin quickly asked.
"Find out what exactly happened!" Chu Li said coldly.
Ji Xin said, "When Junior Sister Li was alive, she was afraid that you'd cause trouble. She told me several times that if she's not around, I'd advise you to act calmly and not be emotional!"
Chu Li sneered. "Can't I find out how Senior Sister Li died?"
"The Saint isn't in a good mood either." Ji Xin said, "It's not wise to look for her now."
Chu Li scoffed. "I'm in a worse mood!"
Then, he turned around and strode out.
He was extremely fast. Along the way, he bumped into a few disciples who entered the mountain at the same time. They greeted him, but he ignored them and went straight to Divine Light Basilica with a gloomy face.
Outside Divine Light Basilica, a few middle-aged men stood at the bottom of the steps. They were silent and the atmosphere was depressing.
When they saw Chu Li, they ignored him and continued to stare at the basilica.
Chu Li did not barge in directly but waited outside.
A moment later, the girl in green fluttered out. "Altar Leader Jing, please come in."
A middle-aged man slowly walked up the steps and entered Divine Light Basilica before disappearing before their eyes.
Chu Li quickly said, "Senior Sister, I want to see the Saint."
The girl in green glanced at him. "Junior Brother Zhao, let's do it another day."
"It's about Senior Sister Li and Senior Sister Lu!" Chu Li said.
The girl in green said, "The Saint has summoned a few Altar Leaders and Priests to talk about this. Junior Brother Zhao, don't be anxious. Go back and wait."
Chu Li shook his head. "I can't wait. I want to know how Senior Sister Li and Senior Sister Lu died!"
The girl in green frowned at him and sighed. "The Saint is still investigating. The details are not clear yet, but Senior Sister Li and Senior Sister Lu won't die in vain."
Chu Li remained silent for a moment before he gave a fist salute. Then, he turned around and went down Great Light Peak to Falling Autumn City.
Even at this time of grief and indignation, he did not use God's Limbs. Instead, he desperately urged his Light-body Technique to rush to Falling Autumn City. He wanted to find out how the two women died and avenge them.
This was the mystery of the Heavenly Demonic Power. The more emotional he was, the more he could break away from his original identity and completely transform into the person he was today.
He did not sleep or rest for two days and arrived at Falling Autumn City in the evening.
Under the setting sun, Falling Autumn City looked bleak and shabby.
Chu Li entered the city silently but did not go to the Town Defense Prefecture.
In a small courtyard, Bai Feng was lying lazily on a low couch. Her right arm was bandaged and her aura was unstable. She was heavily injured.
Bai Feng was not surprised to see Chu Li appear silently in her courtyard. Instead, she sighed. "You're here."
"I want to know how Senior Sister Li and Senior Sister Lu died." Chu Li gave a fist salute and asked, "Senior Bai, do you know?"
Bai Feng nodded. "I do."
Chu Li said, "Please tell me in detail."
