Chapter 225 Being Surveilled
Although he was just watching through the video, Chen Li still had this sense of danger.
If nothing unexpected happens, the cultivator in front of him should be the leader of Lingxiao Sect.
There was only a shadow in the image. Chen Li could not see its face clearly and could only stand there respectfully.
"Long Shenghong greets the Sect Master." Long Shenghong called very humbly.
Seeing that Long Shenghong was like this, Chen Li naturally had to be more respectful, and then he shouted: "Nanli Sect Chen Li, pays homage to the Lingxiao Sect's Sect Master."
The black phantom said calmly, "Elder Long, I've said it before. If it's not urgent, you must not contact me."
If what they were talking about was not an important matter , Long Shenghong would definitely be punished by the sect.
The pressure from just one sentence was enough to make Long Shenghong and Chen Li shiver. They didn't expect it to be so terrifying.
"It's like this. Yesterday we ordered some disciples to go to the Boundless Sea to wipe out the demons. However, Nanli Sect received news that a demon in the Nascent Soul stage appeared in the Boundless Sea." Long Shenghong said respectfully.
After these words came out, the black phantom was stunned for a moment, and then asked again: "Are you serious?"
"I swear on my heart that this is absolutely true." Chen Li said respectfully, then raised his right hand.
Swearing by the heart of Tao is the greatest oath. If what he said is false, then Chen Li will definitely die on the spot.
Chen Li is not dead now, which is enough to prove that what he said is true.
The black phantom touched his chin and said calmly, "I already know about this matter. I will notify the people from Tyrant Sect and Feiyan Sect and send the three elders to deal with it."
"Yes." Long Shenghong said humbly.
After that, the image was completely cut off. Chen Li and the other person just stood in the room with sweat on their foreheads.
Chen Li really didn't expect that the leader of Lingxiao Sect would be so terrifying. He could hardly bear the sight of just an illusion.
Although he hid his cultivation, his strength did not decrease. In other words, the sect leader was much stronger than Chen Li.
Long Shenghong looked at Chen Li and said calmly: "Thank you for bringing us this news, we will prepare some gifts for you."
In his opinion, since Chen Li told the people from the three upper sects about this news, it meant that the Nanli Sect wanted to gain some benefits from them.
Chen Ligang wanted to refuse, but the words soon became choked in his throat.
What kind of sect is Lingxiao Sect? It is one of the best sects in Jiuzhou Continent. Not to mention how generous the revenge they offer is, if you refuse, wouldn’t that be looking down on Lingxiao Sect?
If I make them unhappy by then, will I still have a chance to survive in Kyushu?
So Chen Li nodded respectfully and agreed, "Thank you, Elder Long."
Long Shenghong waved his hand, and then took out several bottles of pills from his space ring. " Although these pills are useless to you and me, they are still very useful to the disciples of your sect."
Looking at these pills, Chen Li was a little surprised. These Qi Condensation Pills were almost going to become second-grade pills.
Qi Condensing Pills are pills that can improve disciples' cultivation. Generally, they will only have some effect during the Qi training period and the initial stage of foundation building. Later on, the effect will be very poor.
These pills might be able to have a certain effect when one reaches the later stage of foundation building. It seems that there is a reason why the top three sects can become so powerful.
It’s a pity that Chen Li didn’t feel anything about these things . His only disciple Yin Yuehan had already broken through to the Golden Core Stage at this time, so he just kept these pills as collections.
"Thank you very much, Elder Long." Chen Li respectfully took the pills and said to Long Shenghong.
Long Shenghong nodded and said, "You should stay in Tianhong City for a few more days, and let Lingxiao Sect show its hospitality."
"I understand." Chen Li replied.
Of course he knew the reason why Long Shenghong asked him to stay in Tianhong City, and now they still had to deal with that matter.
Although Chen Li has sworn an oath with his heart of Taoism, there are still many things they don't know. What if Chen Li and the demons join forces to deal with them, and they can't find Chen Li at that time? That would be the most troublesome thing.
First, keep Chen Li safe in Tianhong City. Only in this way can we find Chen Li as soon as possible when something happens.
However, Long Shenghong was a little surprised that Chen Li agreed to this matter immediately. He didn't expect him to agree so easily.
"In that case, I will first instruct my disciples to arrange a place for you to live." Long Shenghong said to Chen Li.
Chen Li waved his hand, "No need, I am used to being lazy, and recently I need to go out of the city to hunt monsters."
For him, there was one very important thing he had to do when he came to Tianhong City.
There are quite a few monsters near Tianhong City, and there must be some in the late Jindan stage among them.
So he wanted to enter those places to kill the monsters and obtain the inner core of three hundred monsters in the late Jindan stage.
Long Shenghong shook his head and said to Chen Li, "At least this is the plan of our Lingxiao Sect. Please be calm for a while. Even if you want to go out, they have to follow you."
Chen Li felt unhappy after hearing this, but he didn't dare to say it out loud.
It was obvious that they wanted to imprison and monitor him. It seemed that the people of Lingxiao Sect were more decisive and swift than he thought.
"Since Elder Long has said so, I have to make one thing clear. If those disciples are attacked by monsters, I will not help them." Chen Li said solemnly.
The monster that he was going to hunt was in the late Jindan stage. If he followed him, he would not know how he would die.
Long Shenghong was not worried at all. Instead, he said bluntly, "You don't need to care so much. They will just watch from a distance. If there is any danger, they will naturally leave first."
He also knew that Chen Li must know that this was done in order to monitor him. Since both of them knew it tacitly, there was no need to hide so much.
Chen Li waved his hand and said, "In that case, please let Elder Long make the arrangements."
Originally, he had some favorable impression of him, but faced with such a situation, Chen Li really didn't know what to say.
Long Shenghong didn't continue speaking, turned around and walked away.
Not long after, two Lingxiao Sect disciples who looked very serious came over.
"Greetings, Elder Chen." They said respectfully.
Although these two people were somewhat arrogant, they also knew very well that Chen Li was a great cultivator after all, and was also an elder of another sect. If they put on airs in front of him, it would be useless even if they had the Lingxiao Sect behind them.
Chen Li waved his hand and said, "Since Elder Long has arranged for you to keep an eye on me, let's go and take me to my residence."
The two looked at each other, but didn't say much. They just turned around and led Chen Li away.
After walking out of the pavilion, Chen Li looked at the surrounding situation. There were quite a few cultivators nearby.
Moreover, among every ten pedestrians coming and going on the road, one is a disciple of Lingxiao Sect.
It seems that Lingxiao Sect’s care for Tianhong City is very meticulous.
Soon, Chen Li and the other two arrived at the door of a mansion.
He looked at the mansion in front of him. Although the door was closed, he could sense that the inside was very clean.
It seems that this place should be a resting place of Lingxiao Sect. I guess I will need to wait here for a while.
"Elder Chen, this is it. If you need anything, you can call us at any time. My name is Lin Feng, and this is my junior brother, Cang Heng." Lin Feng said to Chen Li very respectfully.
Chen Li nodded and didn't say much. He just opened the door and went in to observe.
This place looks quite quiet. If it is used as a place for leisure and retirement, it might be a good choice.
Unfortunately, Chen Li is no longer an ordinary person. Even hundreds of years later, he will probably still look the same.
He slowly walked towards a room and looked at the furnishings inside. To ordinary people, this place could be considered luxurious.
To Chen Lichen, this place is just an ordinary residence at most. Even if he wants to practice in the future, he will not be able to do so here.
Cang Heng and the other man had already found a place to stay, and the next step was to observe Chen Li's condition.
As for Chen Li, he did not spread his spiritual sense, but found a place that looked relatively quiet and sat down.
He waved his hand and isolated the surroundings, so that people outside could not observe the situation inside.
Cang Heng and Lin Feng did not dare to say anything more. After all, the other person was a great cultivator and their purpose was just to observe him.
Chen Li also has his own private affairs. If we really provoke him, that would be the most troublesome thing.
Chen Li, who was inside, looked at the sealed map in his hand with a solemn look on his face.
He slowly closed his eyes and let the spiritual energy penetrate into the interior bit by bit, intending to break the restriction.
What was surprising was that just as he had infiltrated the spiritual energy into it, an unknown force quickly bounced him away.
Such a situation really surprised Chen Li. He did not expect that such a thing would happen.
It seems that the restrictions inside are much more powerful than I thought. No wonder Li Qingshui gave me this scroll.
In that case, I'll study it carefully. I still have plenty of time anyway.
As time passed, until night fell, Chen Li found that he was unable to break the ban.
He sighed helplessly. He had not expected that this thing was so strong. He was afraid that given his current condition, there was no way for him to break this restriction.
It seems that I can only put it aside for now and open it when I have the chance.
After taking back the map, Chen Li unlocked the isolation formation around him and found that the two people were still watching him not far away.
It seems that they are really dedicated. I have to say that these people from Lingxiao Sect are really brave.
Well, I'm too lazy to care about it. I might as well go to the forest first, kill some monsters, and deal with all the tasks that the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox has given me.
Thinking about this, he turned to look at the two people over there and said, "It's getting late. I have to go out. Do you want to follow me?"
This sentence suddenly brought Lin Feng and the other man back to their senses. They looked at each other, obviously surprised.
"Of course I will follow." Cang Heng answered without hesitation.
Chen Li nodded. Since they planned to follow him out of the city, there was no need to worry about them. He just needed to deal with the matter next.
He believed that these people must have the magic weapon given to them by Long Shenghong that could monitor their every move.
Chen Li didn't care about these things. As long as he didn't do anything inappropriate, there would be no problem.
After that, he walked out in one direction without hesitation, and the two followed Chen Li.
When the people around saw Chen Li, they all looked very surprised. After all, they had never thought that a person could have two guards.
Moreover, these two guards are disciples of Lingxiao Sect. Judging from their attire, they must be elite disciples .
Could it be that Chen Li is a distinguished guest of Lingxiao Sect, or is he an elder of Lingxiao Sect or something like that?
Although they were surprised, there were some things they could not interfere in and they could only watch.
