Their thoughts and their internal struggles were clearly displayed in Chu Li’s head. With a frown, he asked, “Senior sister, who else knows about us going to the Qiu Dynasty?”

“Apart from the Saint, I suppose nobody else knows?” Li Ruolan answered.

“How about Altar Leader Mo?”

“…Altar Leader Mo might know too.” Li Ruolan pondered, then added, “When the Saint spoke to me, Altar Leader Mo was just outside the basilica. He might’ve heard us, what’s the matter?”

“The news of us going to the Qiu Dynasty was leaked, those people heard the news!” Chu Li furrowed his brows again. “That’s going to be troublesome. They’re fully prepared, and even knows about our background.”

“Altar Leader Mo?” Li Ruolan instantly looked sullen. “He dares to do something like this?”

“Why not?” Chu Li scoffed, “We can’t get any evidence to prove this. We can’t just capture two people from the Qiu Dynasty back with us, can we? Even if we do, nobody will believe their words.”

“The Saint will know if she asks,” Li Ruolan commented.

Chu Li shook his head. “We can’t trouble the Saint every single time!”

Li Ruolan nodded her head softly.

‘The Saint deals with a host of problems every day and has too many worries. If I bother the Saint for even the most trivial of matters, although it does solve the problem, it’ll show my incapabilities. Plus, I don’t have to think above progressing upward anymore.’

She let out a sigh. “Looks like we’ll have to change our path.”

“Let’s just hurry out first, and where that takes us,” Chu Li continued, “I’ve got a sharp sense for danger, let me lead!”

“Alright.” Li Ruolan agreed.

While she remained a composed look, her eyes began to glisten.

Now that the Hai Cang Mountain was going all-out to surround them, they could not flee. After all, they were in the Qiu Dynasty.

Even though the Hai Cang Mountain was not as strong as the Reincarnation Temple, it was still no ordinary faction. Should they encircle and launch a full attack on someone, the Saint was the only one who could escape unscathed. The Priest might also be able to, but Zhao Dahe and herself were hopeless.

This time, she was going to die in a strange land. Thankfully, she was not going to turn into a lonely spirit since Zhao Dahe was with her.

She suddenly felt that Zhao Dahe, who looked very solemn, was not that ugly after all. Instead, he was charming in unique ways. Being with him gave her an indescribable sense of security and peacefulness; he had now become a towering tree that could protect her from wind and rain.

She had witnessed him transform from a young village boy into a master. Despite being unstirred even when he expressed his love to her courageously because of his ugliness, she always felt that he was kind, and was the most trustworthy. Therefore, she immediately thought of him when she needed help for the hunt-down in Qiu Dynasty.

However, she harmed him this time!

An inexplicable feeling of guilt lingered in her heart for a long time.

“Junior Brother Zhao, I dragged you into this!” She blurted out.

Chu Li turned to look at her, then smiled brightly. “Do you think that we’re going to die for sure?”

“Ugh…” Li Ruolan shook her head.

Chu Li continued, “Don’t worry, as long as you listen to me, we won’t die. We’ll be able to return!”

“You don’t have to comfort me,” Li Ruolan said, “I’m not afraid of death. The Hai Cang Mountain is not as simple as you think. Besides, we’re in the Qiu Dynasty, their sect leader can make a move too.”

Chu Li still had a smile on his face. “Senior sister, you might not be afraid of dying, but I am, so we won’t die.”

“Alright.” Li Ruolan nodded.

Upon seeing her half-hearted look, Chu Li sniggered.

With the Omniscient Mirror, everything within 6 miles was clearly within his view. Along with Li Ruolan, they could avoid the Hai Cang Mountain’s disciples in advance.

That being said, now that the Hai Cang Mountain’s disciples were moving out in full strength, it was very likely that Zhao Haiyun had already died, which totally infuriated them. They probably laid in ambush beforehand and were simply waiting for the two of them. Since the obstructed paths were the only way out, Chu Li and Li Ruolan could only force their way out.

On their way back to the Li Dynasty, there was a huge canyon with precipices on the sides that resembled knives. It was over 200 meters tall, which seemed like a natural chasm.

There were only two ways to go past it. One was by going beneath the canyon, the other was by going from the side of the precipices.

Nevertheless, whether they were going to underneath or sideways, they were not able to hide from the Hai Cang San disciples. They had allocated someone at the highest point of the precipices to overlook the area. Thus, they could see if anyone was passing by those spots.

Chu Li did a quick scan and found that there were a total of four people, all of whom were masters.

Later, the two of them went into the woods to observe from a distance. Currently, the Sun was already setting, painting the trees red. They stood between the trees, shaking their heads as they checked out the four middle-aged man in blue outfits on the precipices.

Li Ruolan was worried. “Looks like we can only force our way out!”

Chu Li mentioned, “The four guys are strong. As soon as there’s a movement, other masters will come over too.”

“How about night time?” Li Ruolan proposed.

Chu Li nodded with a smile. “We’ll go at night then.”

Followed by that, they moved back into the dense forest to hide from the sights of the Hai Cang Mountain’s disciples.

Li Ruolan sat down on a rock, then took some dry food out from her baggage. On the other hand, Chu Li found another rock and shifted it to sit in front of her.

Later, Li Ruolan handed him some food. “As long as we pass this obstacle, and cross the bridge after, we’ll be in the Li Dynasty’s borders. We’ll be safe.”

Not far away from the canyon, there was a river of 2 miles wide. They needed to cross it by boat because their light-body technique would not allow them to just traverse the river.

Chu Li nodded. “Senior sister, don’t worry, we’ll return.”

Li Ruolan showed him a smile. “Earlier, I was really unsure, but I have a different thought now, … Why do you have such a sharp sense?”

Chu Li frowned for a while, then shook his head helplessly. “I don’t know too. I can’t figure if it’s because of the Divine Light Body or the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture.”

“The mixture of your martial art is quite terrifying.” Li Ruolan commented.

‘If other people were to possess scriptures to those mystical arts, they would not dare to practice it, it’d only drive them crazy.

‘Plus, the Divine Light Body and the Maha-Vairocana’s Immobility Scripture are entirely different, yet he’s able to mix them together. Oh, the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture too. It’s not even on the same path as the other two, but he still managed to combine them together.

‘Putting everything else aside, the fact that he can cultivate three arts at the same time makes him a genius.’

Chu Li chuckled. “They’re beneficial in their own ways. Senior sister, why were you assigned to this task?”

“I’m the only free patrol.” Li Ruolan felt helpless. “The others are busy bringing up new intakes, but I wanted to rest so there aren’t any under my care. In the end, I’m the only one who can do this. I should’ve come here alone, instead of dragging you into the mess!”

Chu Li replied, “Senior sister, you’re treating me too much like an outsider. The Hai Cang Mountain is really not one to be underestimated.”

Though he had not exchanged fists with their disciples yet, he saw through their cultivation levels, which were extremely profound. They were indeed not a match for ordinary masters.

“Their swordsmanship is remarkable,” Li Ruolan added, “It’s even stronger than our Divine Light Sword Technique.”

Chu Li raised his brows.

Li Ruolan continued, “The most powerful martial art in the Scripture of Great Light is the Divine Fist of Great Light, not the Divine Light Sword Technique.”

Chu Li nodded his head slowly.

Without warning, his face changed, where he quickly put his finger up.

Li Ruolan was clearly bewildered.

Chu Li then shook his head with his finger on his mouth.

Through the Omniscient Mirror, he saw an elder fluttering onto the precipice like a gold eagle whirring its way up. In between, he kept changing breaths as he changed steps, whereby his exceptional light-body technique left Chu Li speechless. Furthermore, Chu Li was also fearful of the profoundness of his cultivation level, considering he was a legendary master!

The Thin Elder had eyes so sharp that they looked like electric lights. He looked from the precipice at the forest in which the two of them were hiding; it was as if he was scanning with a pair of an eagle’s eyes.
