Bai Qian chuckled and nodded proudly. "I live in Ben State City."
"Is Ben State City considered a big city?" Chu Li asked.
"Of course!" Bai Qian replied proudly. "The forty-eight cities of the Li Dynasty are famous, and Ben State City is one of them!"
"No wonder." Chu Li exclaimed. "It's a shame I don't have the chance to go out and experience it. Miss Ruolan won't let me."
"Hehe, that's because she's afraid you'll get lost." Bai Qian teased.
Chu Li pretended to be serious and thought about it. "No wonder."
Bai Qian found it more and more interesting. He did not expect this guy to be such a fool that he could not tell good from bad.
"Oh right, Brother Bai, are you going to join the Holy Church of Light too?" Chu Li asked.
Bai Qian nodded proudly. "Of course."
Chu Li smiled and said, "Then we can also travel together."
Bai Qian patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, I'll take care of you!"
Chu Li nodded. "Ben State City is so big, it must be fun, right?"
"There are so many fun places!" Bai Qian chuckled. "Especially the ladies from Freedom Pavilion, they're really …"
He said with a strange smile on his face, yearning in his heart.
Chu Li grinned and chuckled as well.
Bai Qian was even more satisfied when he saw him like this.
"Let's go, I'll bring you out to experience it!" Bai Qian patted his shoulder.
Chu Li shook his head. "Miss Ruolan won't let me out."
"Miss Ruolan is afraid that you'll get lost. I'm here, it's okay!" Bai Qian patted his shoulder and smiled. "I'll go out for a walk and come back before the sky turns dark. Miss Ruolan won't care."
Chu Li, however, saw through his thoughts and sighed to himself.
Bai Qian looked forthright but his heart was evil. He planned to set a trap for him to fight with someone and be crippled.
Bai Qian looked at him with a smile, certain that he would agree.
A country bumpkin from a small place and so young would not be able to resist the temptation of prosperity, especially a money-squandering establishment like Freedom Pavilion. Once he stepped in, he would not be able to extricate himself. It would be a piece of cake to cripple him.
Anyone who joined the Holy Church of Light as an outer mountain disciple would be his opponent. If he wanted to become an inner mountain disciple, he could only climb up by stepping on others.
Crippling this fellow in advance would save him trouble in the future.
Although they looked foolish, their aptitude was definitely not bad. He had to be even more vigilant. These fools were simple-minded and practiced martial arts without any regard for their lives. Perhaps they would surpass him and use him as a stepping stone.
Chu Li shook his head and said seriously, "I'll listen to Miss Ruolan."
"Why would a man listen to a woman?" Bai Qian didn't think much of it and looked at him with contempt. "You're not a man at all!"
"I'll listen to Miss Ruolan." Chu Li shook his head.
"Sigh … You're really stupid!" Bai Qian sighed. "In a few days, when the Scripture of Great Light is passed down to us, we can only cultivate our martial arts in earnest. We can't come out and play anymore. If we want to play, we should do it now!"
Chu Li shook his head. "I'll listen to Miss Ruolan!"
"Alright, you stay here by yourself. I'm going out to play!" Bai Qian said.
As he spoke, he walked out.
Through Chu Li's Omniscient Mirror, Bai Qian left the residence unimpeded and walked east along the bluestone path. Soon, he reached the main street and entered a colorful building. This was the Freedom Pavilion he had mentioned.
Miss Ruolan was sitting in the small courtyard next door and sipping her tea. She had heard everything that was happening in this courtyard and a cold smile appeared on her charming face.
The sun was setting and the courtyard was enveloped in a rosy glow.
Chu Li sat by the stone table in the courtyard and looked at the colorful sky.
Now that he had started to integrate the Omniscient Mirror and Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture, he put it aside for now and thought about how to hide the Omniscient Mirror so that he could get past the Saint.
The Maha-Vairocana's Immobility Scripture could restrain the Nerves of Light but could not deceive them.
If the Saint could not see through him, she would not be happy and would only be afraid. Then, she would chase him away or even kill him.
After much thought, he decided that he had to start with the Life and Death Scripture.
The Life and Death Scripture was so mysterious that he had only learned the tip of the iceberg.
As his boundary deepened, the endless mysteries gradually revealed themselves and his understanding of the Life and Death Scripture deepened.
Now, he could turn his body into a state of nirvanic death as if he was dead. Only a trace of his spirit remained outside his body to sense the world. With a single thought, he could walk out of the state of nirvanic death and come back to life.
If the body could go into nirvanic death, what about his spirit?
If he could make his inner energy leave his body and use the void and the earth as his Dantian, could he make his spirit leave his body as well?
He visualized the Life and Death Tree in his mind again.
While he was visualizing, the Life and Death Tree suddenly trembled and he had an inexplicable flash of inspiration.
A shiny round mirror suddenly hung on one of the treetops of the Life and Death Tree. It was clear and bright and could be seen clearly. It was the manifestation of the Omniscient Mirror.
The Life and Death Tree suddenly trembled and slowly disappeared from his mind. That shiny round mirror disappeared along with it.
Chu Li opened his eyes and sensed his surroundings.
His five senses became much duller and weaker as if they were covered by a layer of membrane. There was also a layer of estrangement between him and the world. He had never felt this way since he cultivated the Omniscient Mirror.
He knew that his Omniscient Mirror had been completely hidden as if he had never cultivated it.
He visualized the Life and Death Tree in his mind again.
The Life and Death Tree appeared again with a round mirror hanging on one of the treetops. The round mirror left the treetops.
His five senses immediately regained their sharpness and became one with the world once again.
Everything within a radius of six miles appeared in front of him. He could see the depths of the ground, the sky, the tender grass that swayed gently in the wind, and the seeds that were deeply buried in the soil that revealed their tender sprouts.
A cool breeze caressed his face and seeped into every pore of his body. Spiritual energy floated between heaven and earth.
This wonderful feeling moved him and intoxicated him.
The sound of footsteps interrupted his intoxication. Bai Qian strode in, reeking of alcohol and the fragrance of rouge.
His senses were especially sharp now. Although he did not circulate the All-Knowing Scripture, his sense of smell was still far superior to that of ordinary people.
He opened his eyes and found that the moon was already hanging in the sky, shining brightly. Bai Qian came to sit in front of him and chuckled. "Zhao Dahe, it's a pity that you didn't go!"
Chu Li said, "When we become disciples of the Holy Church of Light, what kind of woman can we not have?"
"Hehe …" Bai Qian looked at him and shook his head.
With his identity as a disciple of the Holy Church of Light, he could find any kind of beautiful woman. As for Zhao Dahe, he was so ugly. If he wanted to find a beautiful woman, he was afraid that none of them would be willing. It was really pitiful.
Suddenly, two figures landed in the courtyard. Two masked men in black rushed toward Bai Qian.
Bai Qian was shocked. He quickly pulled out the long sword at his waist and waved it. "Who are you!"
Chu Li pulled out his sword and stood beside Bai Qian. He shouted, "Assassins!"
He swung his sword at lightning speed and slashed at one of the masked men in black.
"It's none of your business. Get lost!" The masked man in black glided backward and easily dodged the long sword.
Chu Li scoffed. "What are you trying to do?"
"We want to kill that brat. If you stop us, we'll kill you too!"
"I'm here. Don't even think about killing him!" Chu Li waved his sword and shouted.
He immediately saw through what was going on. He used the same trick again. How could anyone break into such a tightly guarded residence!
"Bang!" The masked man in black punched.
Chu Li was sent flying and crashed into the wall.
He saw that Bai Qian was also sent flying and crashed into the wall. The two of them fell side by side at the foot of the wall.
The two masked men in black approached them and looked down at them with cold eyes.
One of the masked men picked up Bai Qian's long sword and suddenly swung it.
"Swish!" Bai Qian's head was separated from his body.
