Fo Li is a classic example of double standards.
But Fo Li is unaware of his "issues"; he simply grows increasingly dislikeful of Nangong Limu, even regarding him as a hypothetical enemy.
After Nangong Limu had entered the Demon King's Mansion for almost half a shichen, Fo Li was still idling at the entrance.
Of course, Fo Li wasn't merely afraid of encountering some bizarre situation, thus refusing to go in; it's just that now Nangong Limu and Shangguan Linlang had both penetrated the mansion's forbidden grounds, someone had to be stationed outside.
If something were to go wrong, and if he followed Shangguan Linlang and Nangong Limu inside, it might indeed allow certain lurking Devil Spirits and Monsters to strike them all at once.
Fo Li even recalled his previous encounter at the Shangguan Residence with the mysterious figure claiming to be Shangguan Linlang's mentor.
