"But the Commander called for you. It's not good if you don't go, right?"
"The Commander called for me?"
"Yes." Both of them looked at him.
Chu Li sighed, "Just say that I have something to do and will go tomorrow."
"Tomorrow!" Both of them smiled bitterly, "Commander, it'll be too late tomorrow. The Commander will definitely gather everyone to discuss how to pursue. If you don't go, then …"
"Go, report to the commander as it is."
"Captain …" Yang Zongwen hesitated.
Chu Li waved his hand and said, "Alright, go!"
"Sigh …" Both of them looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. They could only turn around and leave.
Lu Yurong flew out of the circle of swords and came to Chu Li with a faint fragrance, "What's going on?"
Chu Li said, "A private matter of the Secret Guardians Hall."
"Forget it!" Lu Yurong said impatiently, "What's there to keep a secret about the Secret Guardians Hall? Did you lose out again?"
"Yes, it's not going well." Chu Li nodded.
"Tell me about it." Lu Yurong said, "I can come up with an idea too. Two heads are better."
Chu Li looked at her curious face and smiled, "What's there to say about the Secret Guardians Hall? It's all shady and unpleasant. It's better not to listen."
Lu Yurong's face darkened, "Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, don't ask for my help in the future! "
"Alright, I'll tell you. You have to help me this time!" Chu Li said.
"How much?" Lu Yurong scoffed.
Chu Li raised his left index finger and smiled, "One will do."
"Just one?" Lu Yurong looked at him doubtfully, her eyes sparkling.
He was keeping her in suspense for a master? This was not Chu Li's style of doing things.
Chu Li smiled, "Do it yourself."
"What is it?" Lu Yurong scoffed, "If I'm interested, I can do it."
Chu Li said, "Then this must be kept a secret."
"Of course." Lu Yurong said.
Chu Li chuckled. "Especially not to King Jing."
"… Alright, I won't tell uncle-in-law!" Lu Yurong hesitated and gritted her teeth.
Chu Li told him everything that had happened.
Lu Yurong furrowed her brows, deep in thought.
"What do you think?" Chu Li asked.
He had the deepest understanding of Lu Yurong's intelligence. It was not something an average person could compare to. She was even sharper than him. He relied on the Omniscient Mirror, but Lu Yurong was a true genius.
"Same as you." Lu Yurong nodded. "But I think they might have found some clues and obtained the Great Light Scripture."
Chu Li frowned. "Did you get it?"
Lu Yurong said, "If they didn't get it, they wouldn't have caused such a big commotion. It's very likely that they split into two groups, one to attract your attention, the other to avoid your eyes and sneak back to the Li Dynasty."
"Actually, they didn't have to do that." Chu Li shook his head. "If they didn't do that, they could've hidden from us."
"Maybe it's because I value the Great Light Scripture too much." Lu Yurong sighed, "That's why they had to make sure that nothing would go wrong … Who would've thought that we would meet someone like you who saw through their tricks … But it's useless, I guess the one in the dark has already returned to the Li Dynasty!"
Chu Li stood up and paced with his hands behind his back.
Lu Yurong said, "If they really get the lower half, it's nothing. It's not as serious as you think!"
Chu Li glared at her.
Lu Yurong said, "It's difficult to become an Enlightened Master, not because of the martial arts inheritance, but because of the limited spiritual Qi of heaven and earth. Unless you go to the Hundred-Thousand Hills to cultivate, then you can become an Enlightened Master!"
Chu Li sighed. "The Holy Church of Light is different."
"What's the difference?" Lu Yurong smiled and said, "Think about it, in terms of inheritance, the four major sects have not been cut off, and all of them have the divine skills to cultivate to become Enlightened Masters, but in the end, how many of them became Enlightened Masters?"
Chu Li said, "That's the only way! … Since it's like this, we can only seize the opportunity in front of us. Minister Counsellor Zhou cannot die in vain! "
He suddenly thought of the fact that he could stay in the Spirit Cranes Peak without being chased away by the Spirit Cranes. If he went into seclusion at the Spirit Cranes Peak, would he be able to become a Heavenly Deity?
"You want to hunt them down?" Lu Yurong interrupted his thoughts.
Chu Li nodded slowly. "And you!"
Lu Yurong was taken aback and laughed, "This is what I'm doing?"
Chu Li nodded.
Lu Yurong said, "I'm not from the Secret Guardians Hall!"
Chu Li smiled. "You agreed just now, didn't you?"
"… Alright." Lu Yurong bit her lower lip and scoffed. "Can we catch up to them? I'm guessing by the time we arrive, they'll have already escaped back to the Li Dynasty! "
"Let's go now!" Chu Li said.
Lu Yurong shook her head and sighed. "You're really good! … Alright, let's go! "
She felt that she owed Chu Li too much, and it was better to return as much as possible.
Chu Li extended his hand and said, "I'll bring you there."
Lu Yurong said, "My Light-body Technique is not bad either."
Chu Li's hand stopped in mid-air, gesturing for her to stop talking.
Lu Yurong looked at him, then at Leng Qing and Leng Qiu. They were focused on practicing their swordsmanship, and did not look over.
"Sigh …" Lu Yurong felt that she was especially softhearted today, going along with everything he did. If it was in the past, she would have reprimanded him long ago.
She stretched out her hand.
Chu Li grabbed her snow-white wrist through her sleeves.
Lu Yurong instantly froze and tensed up. She felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to fling her hand away.
Chu Li's hand was like an iron hoop, and he said in a low voice, "Don't move!"
Her body swayed, and suddenly the light and shadow in front of her became distorted, and she could not see clearly what was in front of her. It was as if she had fallen into a torrential flood.
She resisted the urge to vomit, and her eyes suddenly brightened.
She took a deep breath and circulated her inner energy to get rid of the discomfort.
She looked around, and it was a lush pine forest halfway up the mountain. The mountain was tall and steep.
The sunset dyed the pine forest red, and it was magnificent. The two of them were standing on top of a pine tree.
"Where is this?" Lu Yurong asked.
Chu Li said, "Those three are not far."
"What Light-body Technique is that?" Lu Yurong frowned. "It doesn't look like it."
"God's Limbs," Chu Li said, "I learned it from the Titanium Temple. Can it help me keep this secret?"
"No wonder!" Lu Yurong suddenly understood, and nodded. "It has to be kept a secret."
She looked at Chu Li with a strange gaze.
Chu Li looked at her, and when their eyes met, he could not help but laugh. "I'm not a monster, you don't have to look at me like that."
"You were hurt by Xiao Qi, right?" Lu Yurong scoffed. "So you've seen through the mortal world?"
Chu Li shook his head and laughed.
"Not everyone can learn the divine power of the Titanium Temple," Lu Yurong said.
Of course, she knew that the Titanium Temple became a Buddha through divine power.
It was the opposite of the Tempest Temple's cultivation path. The Tempest Temple did not care about divine power, and saw divine power as a demonic barrier.
The Titanium Temple, on the other hand, cultivated divine power, but both temples were able to become Buddhas, which was amazing.
It was not easy to learn the divine power of the Titanium Temple, and it required one to see through the mortal world and cut off one's worldly desires.
Chu Li said, "It's just a coincidence! … Do you see those three? "
Chu Li pointed in the opposite direction.
Lu Yurong focused her eyes, and saw a gazebo at the foot of the mountain. Three people were eating in the gazebo.
"It's them?" Lu Yurong asked.
