"Let's go. Let's cut off his head and return to the sect." The short elder shook his head. "We've wasted ten days for this guy. What a sin!"
"We'll have to teach the Flaming Sun Sect a good lesson this time." The tall elder scoffed. "They keep playing dirty tricks. If we don't teach them a lesson, they'll push their luck. They don't know their place."
As the two spoke, they arrived under the tree. A tiger silhouette flashed again and hit Chu Li, sending him flying out of the tree. Then, he fell to the ground with a 'bang'. Chu Li did not move.
They were extremely careful. They only approached him after they saw that he was dead.
The short elder flipped his body over and faced the sky.
"Everything about this kid is good, but his appearance is terrible." The tall elder shook his head. "It's no wonder that he was thrown here to die. He's really unlikable."
"The Holy Church of Light is ruled by women. It's inevitable that they'll like those who are good-looking. This kind of ugly guy has a bleak future. The sooner he dies, the sooner he'll be free." The short elder shook his head and smiled. As they were in a good mood, they became more talkative.
"Duo!" Chu Li suddenly opened his mouth and shouted. It was like a thunderclap.
The two elders were shocked. They were at a loss and their minds went blank.
When they came back to their senses, they felt a sharp pain in one of their eyes. Then, their heads started to hurt as if they were about to explode. A powerful force was twisting in their heads, trying to twist their brains into mush.
Their other eye widened. They saw Chu Li open his eyes and smile coldly. Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
"Duo!" The shout was heard again.
They were stunned. Then, they felt an unbearable pain in their other eye. Then, endless darkness surged and swallowed them. The two of them fell limply.
Chu Li turned over and sat up. He quickly took off their black clothes.
They were as soft as cloth and as light as a feather. They were lighter than normal clothes and slightly thicker than the floating silkworm treasured clothing he was wearing.
They spat out blood on the black cloth. Chu Li shook it gently and the blood did not stick on it.
Chu Li smiled and patted his chest.
This time, if he did not have the floating silkworm treasured clothing, his life would be in danger. However, with the floating silkworm treasured clothing, things would be completely different. He could purposely take a few hits of the White Tiger Killing Skill and feign death to trick them. Then, he would use the Nature Restoration Manifestation and the Omniscient Mirror to counterattack at the most precise moment, catching them off guard and killing them with a single blow.
With the Omniscient Mirror and the Nature Restoration Manifestation, it was almost impossible for such a plan to fail. Without this antique study, it would not have been so easy to succeed. After all, these two old men were experienced and cautious.
He took a deep breath and felt a faint pain in his chest. Even though he had the floating silkworm treasured garment, he had still sustained some minor injuries. The two old men's skills were profound, and the White Tiger Killing Skill was shockingly powerful. The floating silkworm treasured garment could not completely block it.

A bright moon hung high in the night sky, slowly sprinkling its clear radiance.
The clouds beside the bright moon were like fine gauze, drifting with the wind.
The rooftop of the Nine Star Tower in the center of Gale City was flat and spacious. There were rockery pavilions and it was decorated like a small garden. The Nine Star Tower's reputation as the number one restaurant in Gale City was not just for show.
Four people were sitting at a table with silver cups in their hands, leisurely enjoying the moonlight.
Aside from Zhou Ninghe and Fu Yu, there was also Bai Feng and another handsome middle-aged man with a square face. He was the Flaming Sun Sect's Elder, Zhang Junrui. His status was equal to Zhou Ninghe and Fu Yu.
"Zhang Junrui, why is the Flaming Sun Sect here?" Bai Feng lazily swirled her silver cup and gently sniffed the rich fragrance of the wine. "You rushed here as soon as you heard the news. What are you trying to do?"
"Miss Bai, didn't you rush here as well?" Zhang Junrui smiled.
Bai Feng replied, "I was originally here and just happened to be here. I'm different from you. You're trying to pull chestnuts out of the fire, aren't you?"
"Hehe, why are you slandering me, Miss Bai? We're not enemies." Zhang Junrui shook his head and laughed.
"Then can you explain why Pang Jinshui died in the hands of Zhao Dahe and Tan Jin?" Bai Feng pouted her beautiful red lips and scoffed. "There's no need to say anything else. Why did he appear there?"
"We've already explained this to Brother Zhou and Brother Fu, so there's no need for me to explain it to you." Zhang Junrui smiled. "However, I didn't see you attack, Miss Bai. I'm very curious."
"Hmph, who said I didn't attack?" Bai Feng scoffed. "After I attacked, I realized that I couldn't deal with him, so I tactfully didn't do anything."
"Miss Bai, you're smart." Zhou Ninghe chuckled. "You know what's important."
"I don't owe the White Tiger Sect anything!" Bai Feng cast a sidelong glance at Zhou Ninghe. "Don't be so sarcastic and sarcastic!"
"Hehe, you're right." Zhou Ninghe nodded and smiled. "From the perspective of the Tian Luo Sect, Miss Bai, you've done the right thing. You know when to advance and when to retreat. You've managed to avoid a great disaster. If you've offended Zhao Dahe, the Tian Luo Sect will suffer a great loss!"
"Don't try to provoke us!" Bai Feng scoffed. "So what if we're afraid of him? We're just a bunch of weak women."
Zhou Ninghe and the other two shook their heads.
She would say that whenever there was nothing to gain, pretending to be weak and pitiful. However, when there was something to gain, she would not lose to men. She would widen her eyes even more than a man's and fight fiercely.
"The Flaming Sun Sect wants to deal with him too?" Bai Feng cast a sidelong glance at Zhang Junrui. "What did the White Tiger Sect offer you?"
"Nothing." Zhang Junrui shook his head. "The Holy Church of Light is the common enemy of our three sects. If we don't help them now, who will help us when the Flaming Sun Sect is in trouble in the future?"
"You make it sound better than a song!" Bai Feng said disdainfully.
The Flaming Sun Sect would not do anything that did not benefit them.
Zhou Ninghe smiled. "Brother Zhang has agreed to help us kill Zhao Dahe. What do you think, Miss Bai?"
Bai Feng scoffed. "I've personally experienced Zhao Dahe's power. If something happens to me, wouldn't that be a great injustice? If you want my help, that's not a problem. Just give me a set of White Tiger Armor! "
"We only have four sets of White Tiger Armor." Zhou Ninghe shook his head. "We'll wear all of them this time. We don't have any left. Otherwise, we can lend one to Miss Bai and Brother Zhang."
"Four of you are here?" Bai Feng frowned.
Zhou Ninghe nodded. "Besides me and Brother Fu, there's also He Jingchuan and He Jingjiang."
"What's the use of us then?" Bai Feng scoffed. "If the four of you can't take down Zhao Dahe, then I really have nothing to say. Just admit defeat and pretend that nothing happened. We'll mind our own business!"
"One more person means one more force. We must ensure that nothing goes wrong." Zhang Junrui smiled. "Besides, with our martial arts skills, we won't be a burden."
"Forget it. You guys go ahead and play. I'm not going to go crazy with you." Bai Feng waved her hand. "Without the White Tiger Armor, I won't be able to dodge his Light Blade!"
Zhang Junrui shook his head and smiled.
Bai Feng cast a sidelong glance at him and scoffed. "The Flaming Sun Sect has Ardent Sun Armor, right?"
Zhang Junrui smiled and nodded. "Yes."
Bai Feng rolled her eyes at him. "I'm the only one who doesn't have a treasure armor. Are you trying to harm me on purpose?!"
Zhou Ninghe and Fu Yu were about to speak when their expressions suddenly changed. They looked at each other.
Bai Feng asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Ninghe frowned. "The He Brothers are in trouble. Let's go!"
He turned around and leaped into the air, gliding away.
They were on the fourth floor of the building and were about 40 meters above the ground.
Fu Yu said, "The He Brothers are dead!"
Zhang Junrui glanced at Bai Feng and smiled. "Miss Bai, aren't you going to take a look?"
"Of course!" Bai Feng scoffed.
