"I admire your honesty, Zhenren Li."
Jinghua bowed to Li Shulou again. "Even if you leave immediately after achieving your goal, it's still a great benefit to us."
How could it be easy to snatch food from the tiger's mouth in Chang 'an?
It was impossible to beat the tiger half to death.
If Li Shulou really beat the tiger half to death and left with a fragment of the Immortals, Jinghua would be more than happy.
If the other party was insatiable and wanted more, they would have to worry about it.
"However, if you only want a fragment of the Immortals, do you know that Benefactor Lei is also in Yanhuang recently?"
Jinghua said, "I'm not sure, but he seems to have a fragment."
Li Shulou nodded. "I know about Benefactor Lei, but it's not easy to find him now. Chang 'an won't hide, so I don't want to go too far."
Jinghua said, "Benefactor Lei doesn't get along well with Chang 'an, but he may not be our ally."
Li Shulou smiled faintly. "In that case, if we can find him and have a chance to get his fragment, it's the same for I."
Jinghua asked, "Then, if Zhenren Li fights with Benefactor Lei in the future, how about we help him?"
Li Shulou said straightforwardly, "Then I will owe you a favor. If you need something and I can do it, I will return the favor."
Jinghua thanked him. "Zhenren Li, you're a straightforward person. Thank you in advance."
Speaking of this, she looked as usual and asked, "There's another thing. I don't know if Zhenren Li knows about it. The origin of Benefactor Chu's master is quite complicated.
As far as I know, she and her fellow disciples are called the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper. It's said that all of them have amazing skills. Benefactor Chu ranks last among them. There may be people above the Martial Emperor in her sect. "
Li Shulou didn't look surprised. "I know about this. One of them, Benefactor Fu Tianshu, is a Divine Lord in the fifteenth realm of Martial Arts. His cultivation is really extraordinary.
However, although he and Chu Yaoguang were from the same sect, they were actually sworn enemies.
I previously had some misunderstandings with them and had a conflict. However, after I explained it clearly, they had already turned hostility into friendship. "
Jinghua said thoughtfully, "I see. Then, Zhenren Li, do you have a way to contact them?"
Li Shulou shook his head. "After we parted, we became strangers. I can't contact them."
"What a pity," Jing Huayan said.
Li Shulou nodded and returned the greeting of a Daoist. "Let's part here. If there's anything, ask your esteemed master, Master Mahaloni, to send a message. I will come."
Mahaloni was a fifteenth realm Buddhist Arhat. His Buddhist aura shone, covering a radius of ten thousand miles, and his presence was obvious.
As long as Li Shulou was in the Flameyellow World, he would naturally be able to sense it.
Li Shulou's figure disappeared on the spot.
Jing Hua did not ask him to stay.
In the next moment, the glazed Buddha's light once again enveloped the surroundings, and the Pure Land of Buddha's light once again descended upon this sea region.
Mahaloni, Master Zhiyuan, and Long Shituo of the Yan Huang Buddhist Sect all reappeared.
Even Gao Liang of the Extermination Sword Sect returned with an expressionless face.
"How was it?" Mahaloni looked at his disciple and asked gently.
Jing Huayan said, "We can't be sure whether he's a friend or a foe. We need to observe him later.
If it was before, he would never lie, and I would have believed what he said.
Now, if he has really changed as he said, it's hard to say whether what he said is true or false. "
She roughly explained the content of her conversation with Li Shulou and said, "If his goal is really just a fragment, then it's possible that he's plotting against us."
The Buddhists all nodded slightly.
Slowly, Master Zhiyuan said, "In any case, he has his own plans at best. He's not colluding with Chang 'an City."
With Li Shulou's current cultivation and strength, if he really joined forces with Chang 'an City, it would be useless for the Buddhists to join forces unless Merciful Bodhisattva Bodhisattva came in person.
However, Benevolent Bodhisattva was famous for not caring about worldly affairs.
If Li Shulou was really on the same side as Chang 'an, then there was no need for him to go undercover and sow discord. He could just crush them with his own strength and be done with it.
Even with the help of the Annihilation Sword Sect, the Buddhists weren't completely confident.
To put it bluntly.
With the talent and strength of Ming Tonghui, Li Shulou, and the others, if they were given more time, the Benevolent Travel Pure Land might not be able to protect Jing Hua and the others in the future.
"It's a pity that Benefactor Yu is dead. We can't contact Benefactor Fu in outer space. Otherwise, even if we don't have a strong helper, we can still verify Reverend Yue Yang's words," Long Shituo said regretfully.
"Troubled times, calamity after calamity, as if the Age of Chaos has arrived."
Maharoni said gently, "This is a test for us. Everyone should guard the peace of mind."
Jing Hua, Long Shituo, and Master Zhiyuan all put their palms together. "Buddha is merciful."
Gao Liang listened quietly from the side, not saying a word.
Only then did he speak. "If this Li Shulou turns out to be an enemy in the end, what do you all plan to do?"
Jing Hua said, "Forgive me, Senior Uncle, for bringing your disciples out of seclusion this time. Perhaps you have a plan. Of course, if your sect leader and Benefactor Lin can come, that would be best."
Gao Liang nodded slowly. "I will report the situation here truthfully to the sect."
Li Shulou's sudden appearance had complicated the situation in the Flameyellow World.
Even someone as cold as Gao Liang found it difficult to handle.
Jing Hua looked to the east, where the sea met the sky, and fell into silence.
The current Flameyellow World was indeed turbulent.
The contenders were no longer just the Eastern Chang 'an and the Western Buddhist Sect.
One was Li Shulou, and the other was Lei Han. Both of them had their own ideas and calculations.
Speaking of which, if one counted her, Jing Hua, or the former Lu Xueyuan, the current war between the four countries in Flameyellow World was actually a civil war between the Twelve Kings of Hell.
Fate made fools of people, nothing more.
… …
In the southwest sea region of Flameyellow World, very far away from the Buddhist Sect's activities, there was also someone who seemed to be lamenting about fate.
The former genius of the Caged Dragon Sect, Huo Yiming, was no longer as gentle and capable as before.
His clothes were ragged, and he was in a sorry state.
Even half of his hair was missing.
That was because there was a huge wound on the side of his head. A piece of his scalp had been cut off, and it was bleeding profusely.
The result of his inner vision told him that there was a crack on half of his skull.
Just now, when he was about to die, he forced himself to tilt his head.
Otherwise, half of his head would have been chopped off.
However, compared to the pain in his flesh and blood, the chaos and pain in his heart almost drove him crazy.
In the past six months, he had not had a day of peace.
Every day was a cycle of fleeing and killing.
Under the high-pressure environment where he had a slim chance of survival, he became more and more nervous, and his attacks became less and less controlled.
Two months ago, he finally saw blood on his blade and injured a Chang 'an expert who was chasing after him.
Since then, his attacks had become heavier and heavier, and he had killed a lot of pursuers.
Until today, he almost cut an opponent in half at the waist with one strike.
And he himself was almost beheaded by other Chang 'an experts.
In the chaos, he could only fight blindly and try to open a bloody path.
He didn't know whether the man whose body was cut by him was dead or not.
But now that he thought about it, it would be difficult for him to survive.
Huo Yiming held his head in pain, but it was not because of the wound on his head.
Along the way, the faces of the people in Chang 'an who were injured by him kept appearing in his mind, until the face of the man who was cut in half at the waist seemed to be fixed in front of his eyes.
"… Who?!"
For more than half a year, Huo Yiming, who had been struggling on the edge of life and death every day, was so tense that his heartstrings were almost broken. But as long as this string was not broken, his perceptive ability was far better than other martial artists at the same level.
"Very alert. You deserve to be the descendant of His Majesty."
An indifferent voice sounded.
The person who appeared next was a tall man.
Huo Yiming's mind became clear. He recognized that the man was Long Chuan, the "Ice Emperor", who was at the peak of the Martial Emperor Realm under Lei Han.
"What do you want to do?"
Huo Yiming's face became cold.
In the past 20 years of his life, he had never had such an expression, even when he was fighting with enemies.
And his hand was already on the hilt of his broadsword.
"You'd better deal with your injuries first."
Long Chuan remained unmoved. "Otherwise, with a body full of injuries, even if you make a move, how can you gain any advantage over me?"
Huo Yiming did not move. He just stared at Long Chuan and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Long Chuan said, "His Majesty ordered me to take you to see him."
"That's not necessary," Huo Yiming said coldly.
"We didn't make you end up like this," Long Chuan said with a smile, "His Majesty didn't tell other people in Chang 'an about your relationship with him."
Huo Yiming pursed his lips. "I know, but it's still not necessary. What happened between me and Chang 'an is our business. It has nothing to do with the Dragon Demon Emperor."
Long Chuan looked him up and down. "Do you expect people in Chang 'an to understand your difficulties, forgive you, and accept you again in the future? Or, at least, they won't hunt you down and make trouble for you anymore? "
Huo Yiming did not speak.
Long Chuan shook his head gently. "With all due respect, even if you don't care about them hunting you down, will the relatives and friends of those who were injured or even killed by you really let you go?"
Huo Yiming took a deep breath. "Is this the result you want to see?"
"Chang 'an is His Majesty's enemy. His Majesty doesn't care how many people they hurt or die, and I'm happy to see it happen."
Long Chuan shook his head. "But on our side, no one wants to see you fall into such a situation …"
He looked at Huo Yiming and said word by word, "… Your Highness."
The last four words were like four heavy hammers, which made Huo Yiming's body shake.
