Coincidentally, in a large hall, Lu Xunji and the other Enlightened Masters were sitting quietly on cattail hassocks. The atmosphere was heavy.
Six cattail hassocks were arranged in two rows. Lu Xunji sat on the first seat on the left, while the other five Enlightened Masters were all middle-aged.
Only he looked young, yet he blended in with this place and did not seem out of place.
There was a golden cattail hassock under the painting of a huge mountain in the north. It was empty, but it was obviously the most prestigious one.
"Clan Leader, should we agree with Jinru?" Lu Xunji said softly, "In the world today, only he has the Azure Cloud Divine Sword and can kill the Heavenly Demon."
"Have you confirmed it?" A voice came from the void, old and slow.
Lu Xunji nodded. "I have personally confirmed it. The Heavenly Demon has indeed dissipated. He has been killed, and the demonic seed has been completely destroyed."
"What do you think?" The voice came again.
Lu Xunji looked at the other five and did not speak.
The middle-aged man in front of him looked mediocre. The Enlightened Masters were all handsome, but he was especially different.
He shook his head. "He is a human, not an Enlightened Master. Those who are not of our race are bound to have different intentions. This human saying is too true!"
"Then in Elder Sun's opinion, should we kill Jinru?" Lu Xunji asked.
The mediocre middle-aged man, Sun Jingping, shook his head. "We can't kill him, but we have to guard against him! … He can kill the Heavenly Demon, and he can even kill us. He is an unparalleled divine sword. If we are not careful, we might hurt ourselves! "
"Only he comprehended the Azure Cloud Divine Sword. If a human can comprehend it, why can't we Enlightened Masters?" An elder scoffed.
Lu Xunji shook his head. "Everyone should know about this Jinru. He is indeed a genius. No Enlightened Master can do what he did."
Everyone was silent.
They all knew about Chu Li. In less than two years, he went from a newbie who had just been reborn to a top-notch expert. His progress was shocking and unbelievable.
Lu Xunji said, "As far as I know, Jinru has deep feelings for the Lotus Sect. Although he only joined for a short time, he was deeply influenced by them."
The other five Enlightened Masters nodded.
Without the nurturing of the Lotus Flower school, it would be impossible for him to have today's achievements. As long as he was not a heartless person, he would definitely be grateful to the school.
"That's why the Lotus Flower Sect is his main branch." Lu Xunji said, "So there's no need to worry too much about him biting back."
The Lotus Flower Sect didn't just have one or two people. With so many disciples, once they started a war with the Empyrean Deity, it was impossible for Jing Ru to protect them.
"I wonder when the Heavenly Demon will come again." An elder said in a deep voice, "Maybe during this period of time, there will be little fellows who will comprehend the Cangyun Divine Sword."
All the Empyrean Gods shook their heads.
He had already comprehended what he should have comprehended, but he had not comprehended it even after a thousand years. How could a miracle happen in such a short period of time?
Clearly, this was caused by the difference in the way Empyrean Gods and humans thought. Empyrean Gods' way of thinking was deeply rooted, and there was no way for them to think like humans.
Lu Xunji said, "I feel that the situation is pressing, we should change our way of thinking, there is no need to conquer the humans!"
All the Heavenly Gods fell silent.
They had always been invincible and had become the masters of a world.
In this world, the powerful and large number of spirit beasts had already been conquered, leaving only the small humans, who were treated as fruits and snacks after a meal.
Seeing that they could completely make this world their own after conquering the humans, yet they had to give up, they always felt uncomfortable, as if they were just a mouthful away from being full.
"Exchanging the humans for a sharp blade to deal with the Heavenly Demon, this is quite a good deal. Moreover, with the humans around, we don't have to worry about them turning to the Heavenly Demon!" Lu Xunji said.
All the Empyrean Gods frowned and nodded, still not saying a word.
That was the logic behind it, but he just felt that it wasn't right.
"En, let's do it like this." The voice in the void sounded again, "Do as Little Lu said, no more conquering the humans, and remove those people from the dark. Don't be half-hearted, and instead invite trouble!"
"… Yes." The six Empyrean Gods all lowered their heads and agreed.
There was no more sound in the void.
The six Empyrean Gods looked at their companions, got up, and walked out, discussing as they walked.
"Is that Cangyun Sword Invitation real?" Sun Jingping asked Lu Xunji.
Lu Xunji nodded.
"This Jing Ru is so bold!" Sun Jingping sighed.
Lu Xunji said, "Because he is full of confidence, and is not afraid of us mastering the Cangyun Sword. Even if we did, we wouldn't dare to deal with him!"
The other five Empyrean Gods nodded.
The Cangyun Sword's killing power was too strong, and one mistake could completely destroy an Empyrean God. This was a price the Empyrean Gods could not afford to pay.
They would rather lose the entire human race than lose an Empyrean God.
That was why they kept avoiding the Heavenly Demon, and did not fight to the death with the Heavenly Demon.
"Alright, since it has come to this, don't go over it again." Sun Jingping said in a low voice, "Elder Lu, go and tell him."
The Empyrean Gods did not care about the human race, but in order to destroy the Heavenly Demon and borrow Chu Li's strength, they had to show their sincerity.
Lu Xunji nodded lightly.
Just as he returned to his courtyard, there was a knock on the door, and Chu Li's voice sounded, "Elder Lu?"
"Come in and talk!" Lu Xunji said in a low voice.
Chu Li walked in, closed fist saluted, and smiled, "Sorry to disturb you, how is it?"
"The Elders Guild has decided to no longer target the humans, and we are in harmony." Lu Xunji smiled, "From now on, you can all rest in peace."
Chu Li's face was full of smiles, "Thank you, Elder Lu!"
Lu Xunji shook his head, "We should be the ones to express our gratitude, you were able to destroy the Heavenly Demon, it is a great achievement."
Chu Li said, "The Heavenly Demon is your enemy, and also the enemy of us humans, it is only right to destroy them!"
"That is true," Lu Xunji said, "but the spirit beasts belong to the God of Heaven Mountain, you are not allowed to attack them."
Chu Li nodded lightly, "I will go and tell them."
Lu Xunji said, "Even if there is a dispute, it will not involve the entire clan, you don't have to worry too much about some conflicts."
Chu Li closed fist saluted, "Then I shall take my leave."
He wanted to inform the Lotus Flower Sect and Jingxue as soon as possible, as well as Shen Xing.
Lu Xunji said, "You can come to the God of Heaven Mountain when you are free, you can read as much as you want in the Sutra Library here, as long as you do not spread it out."
Chu Li's eyebrows twitched, and his smile became wider, closed fist saluted, and disappeared in a flash.
The next moment, he appeared in Jingxue's courtyard.
His face immediately turned gloomy.
Jingxue was being besieged by three young male disciples, and they were waving their swords in a frenzy, every move was meant to kill Jingxue.
The murderous intent in his heart was boiling, but he was not in a hurry to make a move. Using the Great Circle Mystical Mirror, he instantly saw through the three's thoughts.
In the next moment, he flashed behind the three, and lightly hit them with three palms.
The three immediately spat out blood and flew a hundred feet away, lying on the ground motionless and silent, dead.
The dozens of people who were originally watching started discussing, and then surrounded Chu Li, eyeing him fiercely.
No matter what, Chu Li was an outsider, and he actually killed a fellow disciple, how could they just stand by and watch!
When Jingxue saw that it was him, her frosty face immediately thawed, and she smiled sweetly.
