"Tell me about it," Zhao Yancheng said.
Chu Li pointed to his left shoulder. "They have a lightning symbol on their left shoulders."
Zhao Yancheng nodded lightly.
"Your Majesty, this is …?" Deng Yue looked at Chu Li.
Zhao Yancheng said, "You should have heard of the divine monk, Ding Ru."
"I have long heard of his name!" Deng Yue's eyes lit up. "It is said that he can bring the dead back to life! … He can directly create a state of bliss while preaching. It is truly miraculous. I did not expect to see it here. My apologies! "
He said as he closed fist saluted.
Chu Li pressed his palms together. "Almsgiver Deng, be careful."
"Careful of what?" Deng Yue was startled. His eyes suddenly sharpened like two swords stabbing at him.
Zhao Yancheng frowned. "Ding Ru, did he also encounter a disaster?"
Chu Li nodded. "He was assassinated by Bu Tian Tower."
"Assassination?" Deng Yue laughed and shook his head with a disapproving expression.
He was in charge of assassinations. He was proficient in assassination techniques and had a keen intuition. How could he be assassinated? That would be a joke.
There were not many people in this world who could assassinate him.
Chu Li smiled.
Zhao Yancheng did not dare to doubt this time. He asked in a low voice, "When?"
Chu Li shook his head. "In about ten days."
"Is there a way to avoid it?" Zhao Yancheng asked.
Chu Li looked at Deng Yue.
Deng Yue smiled. "Your Majesty, if it was any other disaster, it might come true. But assassination is impossible. Even if the assassins from Bu Tian Tower came, they would not be able to assassinate me!"
"You shut up!" Zhao Yancheng scoffed. "Those who are good at swimming will drown. If you have this idea, who will die if not you!"
Deng Yue shrank his neck and laughed. "That is true. I cannot be careless … Alright then. Master Ding Ru, what should I do to avoid being killed?"
Chu Li shook his head. "It is impossible to guard against. Otherwise, it would not be Bu Tian Tower. It is said that Bu Tian Tower has never failed, including the assassination of Your Majesty."
"Heaven Mending Tower!" Zhao Yancheng's face darkened as he said solemnly, "If I don't eradicate this Heaven Mending Tower, I won't be able to sleep peacefully!"
Previously, when they knew that the diplomatic mission would assassinate them, they were already prepared, including the guards and Gu Yuanhe. Gu Yuanhe was not only the Chief of the Imperial Bodyguards, but he was also born with great strength and outstanding martial skills.
He was already so vigilant, yet he still couldn't escape the assassination of Heaven Mending Tower. If Ding Ru wasn't here, he would undoubtedly die!
Thinking of this, his heart became heavier.
Even if he could avoid it this time, he might not be able to avoid the next time. What if there was another assassination? Could it be that he had to keep Ding Ru by his side and prepare to revive her?
Deng Yue said, "Great Master Dingru, in that case, I'm definitely going to die?"
Chu Li smiled and said nothing.
Deng Yue harrumphed. "To tell you the truth, I have a substitute. If it really doesn't work, I'll hide for the next month and only let my substitute appear to lure them into an assassination. Then, I'll seize the opportunity to capture them and follow the clues to catch them all in one fell swoop!"
As he spoke, he clenched his fist tightly.
Chu Li smiled without saying a word.
Zhao Yancheng scoffed. "In your dreams. If it were that easy, they would've been eliminated long ago!"
"Yes, I've thought too simply." Deng Yue hurriedly bowed.
Zhao Yancheng looked at Chu Li. "Ding Ru, you should save him."
Chu Li sighed and slowly nodded. "Since Your Majesty has spoken, I can only reluctantly give it a try."
He untied the prayer beads on his wrist and handed them to Deng Yue. "Almsgiver Deng, keep this with you. Perhaps it can save your life."
Deng Yue took the prayer beads and felt a cool force contained in them. It directly entered his arm through his wrist and then into his brain. His mind instantly became clear and his senses became much sharper.
His surroundings suddenly became clear, and the colors became bright and moving. The voices that traveled into his ears were rich in layers, and no matter what sound it was, it became pleasing to the ear. There were actually two Protectors standing behind the pillar. Their breathing was light and indistinct, and he did not notice them earlier.
"What a treasure!" He could not help but exclaim in admiration.
Chu Li smiled. "It's just an item that I carry around with me. It has always been under the influence of Buddhism. After a long time, it will gain some spirituality. I hope it can help Almsgiver Deng and save him from disaster."
"With this treasure bead, his life is finally saved." Zhao Yancheng breathed a sigh of relief.
He had personally experienced the wonders of this treasure. He originally wanted to be thick-skinned and ask for it, but seeing that Chu Li had passed it to Deng Yue, he could only give up on the idea. He scoffed. "This is a rare treasure. It must not be lost!"
