Jingxue thought about it and smiled. "Actually, you don't need to worry about this, senior brother. The Enlightened Masters should be more concerned. "
Chu Li shook his head. "What does this have to do with the Enlightened Masters?"
Jingxue said, "If you run into trouble and cannot focus on dealing with Heavenly Demons, the Enlightened Masters will suffer losses."
Chu Li frowned. "We can't let the Enlightened Masters help us all the time."
He was now in the same boat with the Enlightened Masters. If he ran into trouble, the Enlightened Masters would worry. On the other hand, he did not need to care when the Enlightened Masters were in trouble. This put the humans in an advantageous position.
"That's true." Jingxue said, "But the Enlightened Masters have so many secret techniques. It shouldn't be hard for them to find one that can restrain them, right?"
Chu Li shook his head. "Never mind, I'll do it myself. I should go into seclusion again!"
Meeting Zhou Qinglan this time had been a huge blow to him. He was not invincible. He needed to cultivate harder or someone would catch up to him sooner or later.
Moreover, he might not be Zhou Qinglan's match now. Even if he could beat her, he would be at a disadvantage against her. He would be restrained.
Jingxue nodded. "Senior brother, it's better to go into seclusion so that you don't have to worry about mundane matters. It's not worth mentioning to you."
Chu Li smiled.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Chu Li waved his hand and the courtyard door opened.
Su Xin floated in lightly. The lotus seat carried her to the two.
"Master's Junior." Chu Li and Jingxue closed fist saluted.
Su Xin waved her hand, bringing with her a faint fragrance. She sighed. "There's trouble again."
Jingxue looked at the exquisite invitation in her hand and said in surprise, "Did someone with ill intentions come to visit?"
"More or less." Su Xin flicked her finger.
The exquisite invitation floated to Chu Li.
Chu Li took it and scanned it. He frowned. "An invitation to a banquet. The Imperial School, one of the five sects of Tiannan?"
He handed it to Jingxue.
Jingxue took it and read it carefully. She nodded. "There's a forceful tone in the words. It seems certain that we will go and there's an order. Master's Junior, has the Imperial School always been so overbearing?"
"Yes." Su Xin nodded. "Of the five sects of Tiannan, the Imperial School is first."
Chu Li raised his eyebrows.
He knew of the Five Sects of Tiannan, but he did not know that the Creation Sect was said to be the number one sect in the Imperial Territory.
Su Xin said, "A hundred years ago, Yuji Gate suddenly announced its closure. All the disciples returned to the mountain gate and didn't come out for a hundred years."
"Could it be to hide from Empyrean Gods?" Jingxue snorted and said, "To avoid the limelight?"
"No." She then shook her head lightly. "They should know that when the nest is overturned, there will be no unbroken eggs. Could it be that there is internal strife?"
"Neither," Su Xin said.
Chu Li pondered, "Could it be that they discovered some kind of secret skill, so all the disciples in the Gate cultivated it together, and after increasing their strength, they now have the strength to unify the Five Sects of Tiannan South?"
"Exactly." Su Xin slowly nodded, her expression solemn: "Actually, the Imperial Extreme Sect has always had the idea of unifying the five sects of South Heaven."
"Are they that strong?" Jingxue asked, "Perhaps they were once glorious and unified the five sects?"
"No." Su Xin shook her head lightly. "The Imperial Extreme School has always been the strongest. Everyone knows that their dream is to unify the five sects and conquer the world."
"Unfortunately, the spirit is willing, but the strength is insufficient." Chu Li smiled and said, "But they suddenly obtained an extraordinary secret skill. They were afraid that the news would leak, so they closed their doors and cultivated for a hundred years. After their strength greatly increased, they wanted to fulfill their long-cherished wish."
Su Xin said, "That is what we speculated."
Jingxue laughed softly and said, "Unfortunately, they do not know that times change. Nothing stays the same. The Five Sects of South Heaven are no longer the Five Sects of South Heaven."
"No matter what, the Imperial Extreme School's strength is extremely strong." Su Xin frowned and said, "But they closed their doors for a hundred years, causing the other four sects to have a lot of complaints. Back then, when the Enlightened Gods revolted, it was always the four sects that held the fort."
"Then, should we send someone to attend the banquet?" Jingxue asked.
Su Xin shook her head lightly. "The Sect Leader has decided not to send anyone. The Lotus Sect is not a subordinate of the Imperial Extreme School. There is no need to listen to their orders."
"That's right." Jingxue scoffed and said, "Do we have to go just because they tell us to? It's too arrogant of them to send such an invitation. They don't take us seriously at all. "
"With the Imperial Extreme School's temper, they will definitely revolt." Su Xin said, "So, trouble will come knocking. Jingxue, you have to be on guard."
"We have to let Senior Brother make a move?" Jingxue asked.
Su Xin said, "Jingxue, your reputation is getting bigger and bigger. All the sects know that if they want to defeat the Lotus Sect, they must first defeat you, Jingxue."
"So, they will find Senior Brother? Kill Senior Brother to establish their prestige, and even kill for the other three sects to see, for all the sects in the martial arts world to see, right? "Jingxue's jade face unknowingly turned cold, and her voice was chilly.
Su Xin nodded and said, "There is an eighty percent chance that they will do so."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Then, it will depend on each person's ability. It seems that the mystical technique they cultivate is no small matter. I would like to see it for myself!"
Su Xin shook her head and said, "According to our understanding of the Imperial Extreme School, they will definitely use us against them!"
"They want to use us to establish their prestige. Why don't we do the same?" Chu Li smiled and said, "If we can suppress the Imperial Extreme School, the Lotus Sect can save a lot of trouble from now on."
"That's true." Su Xin smiled and said, "It's best that you think this way. Jingxue, you are going to be busy again."
Jingxue's Mind Illumination could predict misfortune. In front of people, it was the most powerful weapon outside of martial arts. If she joined hands with Chu Li, the Lotus Sect disciples would be absolutely safe.
With the two of them here, the Lotus Sect disciples were full of confidence.
In the next ten days, Chu Li kept thinking about how to get in touch with Zhou Qinglan and figure out her charm technique and Light-body Technique again. Unfortunately, Zhou Qinglan would not give him such a chance.
However, the matter of the Imperial Extreme School could be used.
This morning, it was already far past the time stated on the invitation, but the Imperial Extreme School still had no reaction. It was as if they did not go and did not care.
Chu Li simply did not think about it. The next moment, he arrived at God of Heaven Mountain and directly entered the Sutra Tower. He began to flip through the books and immersed himself in the sea of books and wisdom.
The collection of books in the Sutra Tower was too rich. Even with Chu Li's reading speed, reading books as if flipping through books, it would still take a long time to finish reading all of these books.
Not only did he not feel fear, but he was also extremely excited. It was as if a sumptuous feast was placed in front of him when he was extremely hungry.
There were hundreds of feasts. Those who were not hungry would only be frightened when they saw it, feeling that they could not bear it. However, those who were extremely hungry would feel delighted and extremely happy.
In one breath, he stayed in the Sutra Tower for ten days. In the early morning of this day, he suddenly felt something strange, so he returned to his own courtyard in the Lotus Sect in a flash.
Jingxue was waiting there. She wore a snow-white gown and had a graceful bearing. She was like a blooming lotus, quietly swaying in the wind with a radiant appearance.
When Chu Li appeared, she came to greet him and said softly, "Senior Brother, people from the Imperial Extreme School have come!"
"They finally came!" Chu Li smiled and said, "How is it?"
"They came to question and punish." Jingxue shook her head lightly.
Chu Li frowned, "Punishment? Who do they think they are in the Lotus Sect? "
"Those who do not follow their orders will be punished!" Jingxue said, "They said that this is the rule of the Imperial Extreme School!"
"Then what about the rules of our Lotus Sect?!" Chu Li smiled and a lotus seat condensed under his feet, carrying him out of the courtyard.
