"The three fellow daoists came at the right time. I just received the news that a team of mages had already broken through the Tiantai Valley guarded by fellow Daoist Bu, and they were heading towards this side. In half a day at most, the Tiantai Valley was defeated. My comrades will come here, and I need three fellow Taoists to meet them." The bald-browed man was not polite, and after a few explanations, he made a request.
"It's easy to handle, but it's a trivial matter, just leave it to me alone, without the help of Daoist Han and Brother Gu!" The old man surnamed Ma said nothing with a look of indifference.
This made Han Li and Gu Shuangpu look at him in surprise.
"Two fellow daoists, don't be surprised. It's not Ma who wants to show off. It's just that he got a new rare treasure some time ago and wants to test its power. You two won't fight with me?" The old man twisted his beard and revealed Said mysteriously.
"Hey! Fellow Daoist Ma is so confident, of course Gu won't do anything unnecessary." Gu Shuangpu said with a haha, and said lightly. And Han Li was just smiling.
"Alright, let Daoist Han and Brother Gu rest for a while, and then there will be Daoist Lao Ma. However, I will let Brother Murong accompany Daoist to go there together. The thunder spells they practiced are not insignificant." .” The bald-browed man just thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, and let the pair of brothers go together.
The old man had no intention of objecting this time, after all, it was easy to be accompanied by someone when he first came here.
So next, the old man from Haoran Pavilion and Brother Murong set off immediately to pick up the retreating monks of the Nine Nations League. Han Li and Gu Shuangpu left the hall under the guidance of the woman surnamed Li and Chong Xuzi, and arranged a place for them to rest.
On the way, Han Li separated from the old man with a dove face. Guided by the petite female cultivator, Han Li arrived in front of an elegant and secluded small building.
"Senior Han, it is usually strictly forbidden for low-level disciples to come here. It should be the best place for retreat. Seniors can rest in this building." Said aside.
"It's not bad." Han Li nodded, showing a hint of satisfaction on his face.
"Senior, is Fellow Daoist Nie Ying really okay? I haven't seen Senior Sister Nie for a long time." The woman didn't leave immediately, but asked after hesitating.
"What? You and Miss Nie are also very familiar?" Han Li was a little surprised, carefully looked at the girl's eyes, and asked calmly.
It was only then that Han Li realized that although this was the first time he had seen this woman, there was something familiar between her beautiful eyebrows and bright eyes, which gave him a kind feeling. Han Li's steadfast gaze made the woman surnamed Li a little uneasy. Although she was secretly annoyed, her face turned red.
"The little girl was able to worship under Huadaowu's door, thanks to Senior Sister Nie's introduction back then, how could the younger generation not be familiar with it?" The petite female cultivator lowered her head slightly and explained.
"Yingning! Li Yingning?" Hearing this, Han Li couldn't help showing a surprised expression on his face.
"Why, the senior has heard the name of the junior before?" Li Yingning heard the strangeness in Han Li's mouth, and couldn't help but raised her head again, asking in a little astonishment.
"What's your mother's name? What country did you come from before?" Han Li didn't reply to this girl, but took a deep breath and asked back.
"My mother, Mo Yuzhu, was born in the country of Yue, why did senior ask this question?" The woman hesitated for a while, feeling that there was really nothing to hide, and vaguely remembered something, before replying hesitantly.
"Is that psychic jade pendant still on you?" Han Li was silent for a while, and then said something that made this petite girl's heart skip a beat, and she suddenly felt a little confused.
"Yes, this junior has been keeping it close to me since I was a child." The woman immediately replied, and then turned away with a blushing face under Han Li's gaze.
After groping in her bosom for a while, she took out a white jade pendant, held it in both hands and turned back. Han Li glanced at it, stretched out his hand, and the jade pendant flew over as if it had grown wings, and landed in his hand. After stroking the smooth surface of the jade pendant with two fingers, Han Li let out a long sigh, showing a look of bewilderment on his face.
After a while, he said again: "Thinking about it, you should know who I am. How did your mother tell you?"
Han Li looked at the female cultivator in front of him again. This time, because he knew it well, he finally found a bit of Mo Yuzhu's shadow on her face. This girl's face is a little less beautiful than her mother's when she was young, but after a closer look, there is another kind of heroic beauty.
"My mother didn't say much back then, she just said that it was a congratulatory gift from a friend of her who was cultivating immortals, and I didn't say much else. I have been in the world of cultivating immortals these years, and I have asked someone to identify the jade pendant several times, but I haven't gotten it. What useful news. Unexpectedly, this jade pendant was actually given by senior, and senior is actually a monk of Luoyun Sect." Li Yingning murmured, her face was uncertain, and she seemed a little at a loss.
"It's been a few years since I joined Luoyunzong, but I didn't practice in Yueguo and other places before. It's normal for you to have no news about me. But, why did you join Huadaowu? It stands to reason that you appeared I am not surprised at Yulingzong." Han Li rubbed his nose and said with a wry smile.
"It's not surprising why this junior joined the Imperial Spirit Sect." Li Yingning was taken aback when she heard this.
"You don't know anything about your father?" Han Li was startled when he heard this.
"The younger generation really doesn't know much about my father. Not long after I can remember, the whole family had an accident. Both my grandfather and my father died early in the accident. Only my mother took me to leave the country of Yue and wandered for a long time. I just settled down in the Nine Kingdoms League." The goddess looked downcast and said with a forced smile.
"So that's it! It seems that most of the fights within the Demon Dao were involved, and your parents suffered a catastrophe. After all, it is not the Yulingzong who is in charge of the Yue Kingdom, but the Ghost Spirit Sect monks." Han Li nodded, as if Said a little clearly.
"Fighting in the devil's way?" The woman on the opposite side was full of confusion and looked a little puzzled.
Seeing this, Han Li didn't intend to explain it. After returning the jade pendant in his hand to the woman, he smiled slightly: "This psychic jade has been with you for so many years, so naturally I won't take it back. Back then, I was in the world, and I didn't enter the cultivation world. Before Immortal Realm, I was your mother's half-senior brother, so you can call me Master Han from now on."
"Uncle Han!" Li Yingning was a little hesitant when she heard the words, and after her big eyes flickered a few times, she still called out softly, her face flushed slightly. But there was an extra Nascent Soul Stage elder out of thin air. After being embarrassed for a while, this woman was naturally extremely happy, and even had a faint ecstasy.
"Since you call me uncle, I can't say nothing. Here are two bottles of pills, which are just useful for monks in the alchemy stage to break through the bottleneck. Take them." Han Li showed a friendly smile, flipping through the bottles. There were two more jade bottles in the palm of the hand, and they gave it to this woman with a smile. For Han Li, he would not be stingy if he could help his old friend.
"Thank you uncle." The woman took the medicine bottle, her face was full of surprise, and she cried out sincerely and crisply.
"What magic weapon are you using now? Could it be the flying knife from your imperial weapon? What material is it made of?" Han Li asked after thinking for a while.
"That's right, it's this magic weapon. The flying knife is made of flaming iron and Xuanying crystal, and its power is not bad." Li Yingning was stunned for a moment, and replied a little puzzled.
"In normal times, the throwing knife would be enough, but now we're going to fight the mages, and this treasure alone may be dangerous." Han Li said shaking his head.
"But now, even if Uncle Master gives me another magic weapon, I don't have time to refine it." Li Yingning said helplessly.
Hearing this, Han Li pondered with a thoughtful look on his face, but after a while, he slapped a certain spirit beast bag on his waist, and a large group of three-color gold-eating insects swarmed out of the bag, and dissolved in a burst of buzzing. An insect cloud as large as Zhang Xu floated above Han Li's head.
With a flash of light in Han Li's eyes, he pointed at the insect cloud with his finger, and a small piece of the insect cloud flew out alone, and then he raised his hand, and hit a blue spell on it. The small group of gold devouring insects gathered together under the flashing blue light, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a three-color ball the size of a fist, shining brightly, and slowly fell into Han Li's hands.
"Put this thing away. It is transformed by my carefully cultivated spirit insect. As long as you encounter an enemy that is difficult to deal with, throwing the ball should be able to save your life." Han Li threw the ball Gave it to this woman, said solemnly.
"Thank you Master Han for your kindness!" Li Yingning was stunned for a long time, but after hearing what Han Li said, she thanked Han Li repeatedly, and then took the three-color ball.
The last bit of doubt in this woman's heart disappeared without a trace in the treasure presented by Han Li. Only then did she really believe that Han Li's previous words were true, otherwise, if it had nothing to do with it, who would give such a valuable gift.
"Okay, you go down first, I'm going to meditate for a while." After finishing all this, Han Li put away the rest of the worm cloud, waved his hand at the woman and said.
After traveling overnight for such a long time, his mana is really not full, and he must recover.
"Uncle Han, you should have a good rest. If the army of legal scholars arrives, Ying Ning will inform the uncle." In Li Yingning's words now, there is already a hint of intimacy.
