Chu Li sighed and said, "This should be the prince's idea, right?"
Lu Yurong said: "The prince would not think of this."
"That's Miss Lu trying to figure out the prince's thoughts." Chu Li shook his head and sighed, "You are really on guard against danger, Du Jian!"
Lu Yurong poured a glass of wine for Chu Li and served it to him personally: "What would you do if you were me?"
Chu Li nodded: "I'll kill you first."
"It's good that you understand." Lu Yurong smiled brightly, her face shining brighter than the light: "If I hadn't suppressed him, Xu'an would have died several times by now."
Chu Li frowned and said, "In that case, I would also like to thank you, Miss Lu."
"No need to thank me, just don't blame me." Lu Yurong shook her head.
Chu Li said angrily: "It's a favor, if you act like this, how will we deal with each other in the future?"
Lu Yurong pursed her lips and chuckled: "I am absolutely trustworthy. I have been suppressing them all the time. I personally suppressed them and prevented them from taking action."
Chu Li took a deep look at her and couldn't tell whether what she said was true or false.
In any case, Lu Yurong desperately wanted to kill Xu An, but she didn't do it because she was worried about herself.
Lu Yurong said: "I heard that the Grand Master Jianyue Sect attacked your Duke's Mansion, but you blocked it?"
Chu Li nodded.
Lu Yurong chuckled and said: "Your skills are getting more and more powerful. You can escape unscathed from the Sword Moon Sect. I really admire you."
Chu Li glanced at her sideways.
Lu Yurong shook his head: "Jianyue Sect will never let you go. You can escape for a while, but you can't escape forever. In my opinion, it's better to stay out of the divine capital."
Chu Li said: "Jianyue Sect is not that scary."
"Jianyue Sect is more terrifying than you think." Lu Yurong snorted: "None of the eight major sects are easy to mess with. No matter how powerful you are, you are only one person. It is impossible to stop them."
Chu Li smiled and said nothing more.
Lu Yurong snorted and said, "Okay, I promise not to assassinate Xu'an within a year."
Chu Li said: "Miss Lu, you are becoming more and more scheming in front of me."
It has been less than two years since the emperor ascended to the outer world. Within one year, no matter how much Xu'an stirs, there will be no waves, but one year will be the most critical. Once Xu'an becomes restless again, they will kill Xu'an.
Lu Yurong took a sip of the wine and said, "Don't worry about Xu'an for now. You should take care of yourself first. Don't be killed by the Sword Moon Sect and you won't be able to protect yourself."
After she said that, she smiled happily and was full of charm.
Chu Li was restrained by the Sword Moon Sect. She felt relieved as a big stone was moved away. Chu Li's existence was like an invisible giant stone, which acted as an invisible deterrent even if he didn't take action.
Chu Li hummed: "I can't protect myself anymore. It's not difficult to kill the fish and break the net. You should advise the prince not to do stupid things. Xu'an really has three advantages and two disadvantages. I have no choice."
Lu Yurong narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling cold.
Chu Li also stared at her, his eyes calm.
After the two looked at each other for a long time, they slowly opened their eyes.
To outsiders, they seemed to be gazing affectionately, but in fact they were just the flash of swords and the murderous intent.
"Okay, I will tell the prince." Lu Yurong felt Chu Li's determination, and nodded casually with a solemn heart.
Chu Li smiled: "That's good."
He stood up and clasped his fists: "Then I'll take my leave first."
Lu Yurong snorted and rolled her eyes at him, turned her back to him, and looked out the window.
Chu Li smiled and pushed the door open.
——
Chu Li and Xu An were sitting at the square table, while Xiao Shi was making tea and passing it to them.
Xu Anhe tithes and takes the tea cup with both hands.
Chu Li casually took the tea cup and took a sip, looking at Xu An: "Xu An, have you thought carefully about whether you want to fight for the throne?"
"Fighting for the throne..." Xu An showed hesitation.
Chu Li said: "If you want to train your mind, you might as well sit on the throne. This is the best way to train your mind."
Xu'an hesitated and said: "If I seize the throne, I'm afraid it will cause endless massacres."
The battle for the right to win the heir has always been bloody and life-or-death. If he makes this decision, he doesn't know how many people will die as a result.
Chu Li smiled: "You are practicing the method of becoming a Buddha in ten lifetimes. Are you still unable to see through life and death, and cannot transcend the calamity of life and death?"
Xu An shook his head gently.
Chu Lidao: "It seems that you are not a qualified disciple of Vajra Temple."
Xiao Shi hummed: "This is the best. Is it necessarily better to have a cold heart and look at the world with cold eyes?"
"This is the method of transcendence." Chu Li said: "Only in this way can we obtain the samadhi of the Vajra Temple's mind."
"It's so cold and inhumane, what's so good about it!" Xiao Shi curled her red lips.
Xu An nodded slightly.
He is kind-hearted by nature and does not like fighting or making noise. This time he left the temple to practice in order to experience his state of mind and make further progress. Otherwise, he would not have left the temple. He felt that living in the temple was the safest and most comfortable.
"It seems you don't want to fight for the throne." Chu Li said.
Xu An nodded slightly.
Xiao Shi said: "Don't think about it if you don't want to. Don't force yourself. The throne is not that good. You can only live a hundred years as an emperor."
Xu An smiled apologetically.
Chu Li nodded: "If you don't want to, don't stay in Shendu for too long, no more than a year, otherwise the prince will definitely take action."
"Yes." Xu'an combined tithing.
Xiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I'm really afraid that Xu An you won't be willing to accept it."
Xu An shook his head and said: "I just like to practice quietly and don't want to do other things."
"That's good." Xiao Shi smiled.
She turned her head and glanced at Chu Li and said: "Since Xu'an is not fighting for the throne, don't bother yourself and spend so much effort."
Chu Li smiled and nodded: "In fact, at this point, it is extremely difficult to seize the throne."
Whether Xu'an seizes the throne or not has no impact on him, he must continue on.
There is only one way for Xu'an to seize the throne - to force the emperor to change his mind and make Xu'an the emperor.
There is only one way to force the emperor to change his mind, and that is to become a god. Otherwise, it is impossible to force the emperor to change his mind.
Xu'an doesn't want to seize the throne. The prince will definitely kill him after he ascends the throne. With the Duke's palace around, he can't escape even if he wants to, so if he wants to save himself, he can only become a god.
After much deliberation, he only had less than two years.
Countless prodigies and heroes have spent their whole lives pursuing this goal but failed. He wants to become a god in two years, but it is a joke to tell him.
It's a pity that if he can't complete it, even if he can pretend to be dead with the Ku Rong Sutra, will he have to keep pretending to be dead until the prince ascends to heaven in a hundred years?
And he will never allow himself to live such a useless life, vigorous and free, without restraint and freedom. This is the way of life he chooses.
Thinking of this, he felt a sense of urgency and said, "It's getting late, we should go back."
Xiao Shi reluctantly said: "Xu'an, go to the capital of God as soon as possible."
"Yes." Xu'an nodded lightly.
Xiao Shi smiled and was led away by Chu Li.
In the early morning of the next day, Chu Li appeared outside Jian Yue Sect. The big round mirror looked at the surroundings, and then floated into Jian Yue Sect silently.
The entire Sword Moon Peak is under his observation.
He saw Wei Wuwei, who was wearing a dark green gown, striding toward Sword Moon Peak. There were already two old men waiting in a small pavilion with glaring eyes.
Chu Li smiled. Wei Wuwei was indeed arrogant. He obviously wanted to break through the peak in an upright manner and slap the Jian Yue Sect in an upright manner.
