บท 1054: Devour

Chu Li regarded Zhe Ying quietly. "I must thank Elder Bai then."

Although he no longer had access to the Omniscient Mirror and was incapable of reading Zhe Ying's mind, Chu Li was aware that the latter was just trying to dupe him. What he said next was the real thing.

"Elder Du and the rest insisted on killing you instead," Zhe Ying spoke cheerily, "because you know something that you shouldn't know. Plus, you've infiltrated our sect with cunning intentions in mind. They'd rather kill the wrong person than to let anyone go."

"How about you? What do you plan to do?" Chu Li asked calmly.
