“In such a rush, what’s the that means of this unseemly conduct?”

Han Li’s eyebrows furrowed barely as he spoke indifferently.

Chastened by Han Li’s rebuke, the middle-aged man shuddered and stated weakly, “Father, a person has arrived exterior the manor, claiming that he has pressing enterprise with you.”

To hunt me?

Han Li’s eyebrows furrowed additional. Aside from a visit to Tianxuan Mountain a number of months in the past, he hadn’t left Lingjun Metropolis in many years. Who would come in search of him?

Han Li fastidiously inquired concerning the look of the customer and, upon reflection, realized he didn’t acknowledge the individual.

After pacing backwards and forwards, he decided.

“Deliver that individual to the good corridor, I shall arrive shortly.”

Having stated this, Han Li went to the facet corridor, intending to look at the customer in secret and discern his true intentions.

Han Li sighed. He remembered how, when he was cultivating on Tianxuan Mountain, he too had a coronary heart stuffed with bravery and diligence, daring to struggle for cultivation assets.

After descending the mountain with the ‘golden finger,’ Han Li’s mindset modified, changing into one in all conservatism. He insisted on certainty in all issues — “A cautious driver may have an extended life,” avoiding dangers at any time when doable. His life was essential; the longer he lived, the stronger he would turn out to be.

He believed he had comprehended the essence of longevity and survival, condensed into one phrase: Persevere!

A stranger displaying up unannounced with pressing enterprise, and one he didn’t even acknowledge, made Han Li extraordinarily cautious.

Was this individual right here to assassinate him?

Was he being requested to save lots of somebody?

Or was he being invited to some grand occasion?

Maybe to discover the ruins of some nice energy?

…

All prospects flashed via Han Li’s thoughts. He had not too long ago superior to the Pihai Realm, and had taken 5 new concubines, getting ready to have a good time his two hundredth birthday, inflicting fairly a stir in Fengyang Manor.

It had taken him practically fifty years to interrupt via to the Pihai Realm and the longer term was promising. Han Li actually didn’t wish to capsize in a gutter and die an nameless dying.

If he died, what would occur to his twelve concubines?

Han Li had no want to let others do the plumbing repairs for him.

Shaking his head to clear away such ideas, he noticed his descendants main an individual into the good corridor.

The customer was a middle-aged man in his thirties, rough-looking with an look of urgency, seemingly with extraordinarily pressing issues as he paced backwards and forwards within the corridor, often rubbing his arms collectively.

After fastidiously observing for some time, Han Li breathed a sigh of aid when he confirmed that the person was solely on the seventh degree of the Rebirth Realm. Together with his eighth degree cultivation within the Pihai Realm, except the customer was a Gangyuan Realm knowledgeable, it was unimaginable to hide his cultivation degree from Han Li.

If the person was of the Gangyuan Realm, he would have merely pressured his approach in, not bothering with this pretense. Furthermore, there have been only some in all the Fengyang Manor, and nobody had a grudge towards him.

After looking forward to a while, Han Li gracefully entered the primary corridor and took his seat on the head, overtly observing the rough-looking middle-aged man, whereas internally he remained alert, able to activate his twin protecting divine skills at a second’s discover.

“Who’re you, and what issues deliver you to hunt me out?”

Though he appeared younger, being 200 years outdated, it was fairly regular for him to discuss with himself as an elder in entrance of the middle-aged man.

Ignoring the youth of the Han Household Elder, the anxious middle-aged man hurriedly spoke, “Elder Han, my identify is Zhang Xuan. I’m the prime disciple of Previous Grasp Qiuxuan, and I’m right here by my grasp’s orders, asking you to come back with me as quickly as doable.”

As he spoke, Zhang Xuan took out a token given to him by Qiu Xuan.

“`

Qiu Xuan?

Glancing on the token, Han Li’s forehead furrowed barely. He was all too accustomed to the identify, however why would Qiu Xuan urgently search him out rapidly? Might there be some deceit concerned?

When he cultivated at Tianxuan Mountain, Qiu Xuan was his fellow Sect Disciple, seven or eight years his junior. The 2 of them had relationship, promoted to the rank of Overseas Disciples collectively, and ventured out into the world facet by facet.

Lamentably, after Han Li failed to interrupt via to the Pihai Realm and left the mountain in despair, Qiu Xuan had despatched him again to Lingjun Metropolis with remorse earlier than returning to Tianxuan Mountain to proceed his cultivation.

Solely after studying from Han Li’s failure did Qiu Xuan put together totally earlier than making an attempt to interrupt via the Pihai Realm himself, attaining success in a single go and elevating his standing considerably on Tianxuan Mountain.

Throughout his current return to Tianxuan Mountain, many aged mates visited him, but Qiu Xuan certainly hadn’t come. Han Li thought he is perhaps out experiencing the world and didn’t give it a lot thought. Now it appeared that Qiu Xuan have to be in some hassle. In spite of everything, the title “Previous Grasp” was one thing solely used within the Mortal World; how may Qiu Xuan dare declare such a title on Tianxuan Mountain?

Considerate, Han Li continued to inquire, “What does Brother Qiu Xuan need with me?”

The rugged middle-aged man glanced on the ready Han Household descendants, showing considerably hesitant.

“Communicate freely,” Han Li stated indifferently.

With no different alternative, the rugged middle-aged man lastly stated, “The grasp has suffered a grave damage and isn’t lengthy for this world. Having heard of Previous Grasp Han’s breakthrough to the Pihai Realm, he despatched me to request your presence. The grasp stated that the individual he trusts most is you.”

Not lengthy for this world?

Han Li was startled. What had his outdated good friend gotten himself into to endure such a grave damage?

Han Li had been carefully observing the rugged middle-aged man’s expression and knew he wasn’t mendacity. Coupled with the knowledge he supplied, Han Li was fairly satisfied, albeit nonetheless hesitant.

Han Li gestured together with his hand.

The ready descendant instantly escorted the rugged man out to attend exterior.

“Ah, what to do?” Han Li’s expression struggled with the choice.

His relationship with Qiu Xuan was one solid in life-and-death conditions, lasting over 100 years. Though they hadn’t been in contact for the previous fifty years, their friendship remained unchanged.

Now that Qiu Xuan was gravely injured and close to dying, asking him to come back was probably about entrusting his remaining affairs and making certain his household’s welfare.

This was not a giant downside for Han Li. His fear was whether or not there is perhaps one thing extra vital behind all of it. It was out of character for Qiu Xuan to maintain such extreme accidents with out a motive.

Had the enemy who left him critically wounded died? If not, and nonetheless alive, they is perhaps stronger than Qiu Xuan, doubtlessly even a Gangyuan Realm knowledgeable, with a robust Sect behind them…

This was the rationale for Han Li’s hesitation.

He was accustomed to warning, having not engaged in fight for 50 years. Though he had achieved the superior phases of the Pihai Realm, the eighth degree, and possessed two Decrease Grade Profound Rank martial arts, any motion would expose his skills, attracting undesirable hassle.

If the enemy was from the Pihai Realm, Han Li was assured he may vanquish them. But when they had been from the Gangyuan Realm, he feared he may solely guarantee his personal security. Not solely would he be unable to avenge his good friend, however he would additionally draw the eye of a formidable foe.

Half a quarter-hour later, Han Li exited the good corridor, his expression as soon as once more as placid as a nonetheless properly. To the anxiously ready rugged man, he stated,

“Let’s go, take me to Brother Qiu Xuan.”

“That’s nice!”

The rugged middle-aged man was overjoyed. He had lastly heard the phrases he had been ready for. Although he had solely waited exterior the grand corridor for half a quarter-hour, it felt to him so long as years, stuffed with torment. He feared that if Previous Grasp Han didn’t come, his grasp couldn’t relaxation peacefully in dying.

Quickly, Han Li and Zhang Xuan left Lingjun Metropolis, heading towards town the place Qiu Xuan was situated. Zhang Xuan, having a decrease realm and unable to fly, to save lots of time, Han Li carried him in flight. Fortuitously, Han Li’s realm had superior to the later phases of the eighth degree of the Pihai Realm; in any other case, it might have been tough.

There was no alternative, for Qiu Xuan was his life-and-death good friend. Now that he was dying, Han Li couldn’t ignore it—had he not identified, it might be one other matter, however now that he did, his personal conscience wouldn’t enable him to remain away.

In fact, Han Li was absolutely ready to deal with any scenario, carrying a Prime Grade Yellow Rank inside armor and carrying the Solar Chasing Bow on his again. Together with his cultivation on the later phases of the eighth degree of the Pihai Realm and mastery of two full protecting divine arts, even an peculiar Gang Yuan Realm adversary couldn’t kill him.

Ought to an actual Gang Yuan Realm enemy seem, Han Li wouldn’t recklessly put himself ahead. In comparison with his good friend, his personal life was extra essential.
