Ch 302: The Peng Demon Clan Returns
“Naturally, I must return.”
Chu Xinghe said solemnly, “Master’s death, I must tell the Sect Master everything in detail! Moreover, my tribespeople are still in Emperor Yu Yang’s hands, I must rescue them.”
“Good.”
Liu Dongyue said earnestly, “If you see Master, please tell Master for me that I will temporarily stay in Western Ting and not return for now. I want to stay in Western Ting; I don’t know if what I’m doing is useful, but I also want to do something for Martial Uncle.”
“But Xinghe, how do you plan to go back?” Liu Dongyue asked, “Now that the Divine Palace’s army isn’t with you, you want to leave Western Ting and return to Dongyan Province by your own strength. That’s too difficult, right?”
“I have my own methods.”
Chu Xinghe gave Liu Dongyue a reassuring gaze.
“As for Senior Brother Liu, you’re staying here alone, you must be extremely careful.”
Chu Xinghe urged.
“I will be careful.”
After speaking, Liu Dongyue stood up, “I’ve been away from the tribe for a long time, and I should go back. If you encounter any trouble you can’t solve, you can come to the Green Snake Tribe in Western Ting to find me; I’ll be there.”
Chu Xinghe also stood up and respectfully clasped his fists and said to Liu Dongyue, “Senior Brother Liu, let’s take care.”
“Take care!”
After saying this, Liu Dongyue left the valley and came to Li Hanzhou’s tomb.
“Martial Uncle, I’m leaving.”
Having said that, Liu Dongyue’s figure disappeared into the valley.
As Liu Dongyue left, Chu Xinghe stood at the entrance of the cave, took a small whistle-like thing from his neck, hesitated for a moment, then bit his finger, and dripped his blood onto the whistle.
Xiao Mansion.
In the main hall of Xiao Mansion, sandalwood incense curled, Li Hanzhou leaned against the main seat, his fingertips playing with a crimson pill—the “Nine Revolutions Profound Yang Pill” offered by the Sun family.
Kneeling below were the Patriarchs of the thirteen families of Luoshui City, their faces pale, and cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.
“Sun Mingzu, your ‘Thousand Year Snow Ginseng’ is indeed well-preserved.” Li Hanzhou casually opened a jade box, the ginseng roots as bright as silver threads.
“Unfortunately, a section of the root is broken, reducing the efficacy by thirty percent.”
Sun Mingzu trembled, kowtowing repeatedly: “Young Master is wise! This…this is already the Sun family’s greatest treasure! Please spare the lives of the Sun family!”
The others didn’t even dare to breathe heavily.
“To be fair, what things you have in your family, how many things you have, this Young Master knows better than you do.” Li Hanzhou’s gaze swept across everyone.
This sentence further frightened everyone into not daring to breathe.
One by one, they quickly took out their rosters of belongings and handed them to Li Hanzhou.
In fact, Li Hanzhou hadn’t investigated how much family fortune they had, but looking at the items on the roster, he felt it was sufficient.
Only after Li Hanzhou had collected everything did all the families finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Sun Mingzu also left anxiously.
Immediately afterward, Li Hanzhou handed the plundered treasures to Zhao Qing’er, asking her to go to the Divine Mechanism Merchant Guild to buy some things to improve his cultivation realm.
Previously, Li Hanzhou had read the collections of various sects, naturally knowing many ways to improve cultivation realm; among them, a medicinal bath had a good effect.
Only the materials were rather expensive.
But now that Li Hanzhou was rich again, he naturally wanted to try it.
Night fell.
Zhao Qing’er had prepared the medicinal bath.
Li Hanzhou slowly immersed himself in the medicinal bath. As soon as he entered, he felt the medicinal bath’s effects begin to take hold, strands of True Qi entering his body.
Li Hanzhou began to circulate the 《Northern Emperor Art》 cultivation method.
Only, the 《Northern Emperor Art》 Li Hanzhou was cultivating now was not the original version, but a modified version that could normally cultivate True Qi.
If he cultivated Spiritual Power, he would probably be quickly discovered by Emperor Yu Yang.
Logically, Li Hanzhou should have acted more low-key, otherwise, he would arouse Emperor Yu Yang’s suspicions, but this was also intentional on Li Hanzhou’s part.
He wanted Emperor Yu Yang to discover him, but he didn’t want Emperor Yu Yang to find evidence that he was Li Hanzhou.
The King of Northern Qi, as the only king of a different surname, Emperor Yu Yang was actually wary of him, and if this King of Northern Qi didn’t harbor ambitions for the throne, Li Hanzhou wouldn’t believe it.
Li Hanzhou wanted to make himself a fuse, provoking conflict between the King of Northern Qi and Emperor Yu Yang.
Emperor Yu Yang used him as a pawn; he certainly wouldn’t let him off easily.
He wanted Emperor Yu Yang to suspect him, but without evidence.
Just one night passed.
Li Hanzhou absorbed the medicinal effects very well. In the morning, he had already cultivated from the Third Rank Realm to the Fifth Rank Realm.
“Young Master, such a rapid improvement in realm, is there really no problem?” Zhao Qing’er was somewhat worried, worried that Li Hanzhou’s realm had improved, but his cultivation was unstable.
“Your Young Master I, is naturally gifted, so there is no problem.”
Li Hanzhou said with a smile.
“This little woman wants to try!” Zhao Qing’er was now somewhat eager to try.
“Alright, you try!”
Li Hanzhou said with a chuckle.
“Good, then Young Master, I’ll offend you!” Zhao Qing’er reached out, and a long spear flew from a distance, directly into Zhao Qing’er’s hand.
“Young Master, I will suppress my cultivation to the Fifth Rank Realm!” Zhao Qing’er said seriously.
“No need.”
Li Hanzhou sat on the chair and waved his hand.
“Just use your original realm.”
Hearing this, Zhao Qing’er couldn’t help but get angry: “Young Master is looking down on me? I am in the Transcendent Realm! Even if Young Master is more talented, it’s impossible for a Fifth Rank to fight me in the Transcendent Realm!”
But Li Hanzhou merely smiled faintly.
“Young Master, your weapon!”
“I don’t need a weapon.”
After saying this, Li Hanzhou saw Zhao Qing’er looking wronged, as if she had been looked down upon.
“Fine, I’ll use this.”
Saying this, Li Hanzhou casually picked up a chopstick from the table.
“Young Master, you!”
“Then I won’t be polite!”
Seeing that Li Hanzhou was unyielding, Zhao Qing’er decided to give Li Hanzhou a lesson without harming him.
Western Ting Green Snake Tribe.
Liu Dongyue had been gone for several days, causing everyone to worry.
But they had no trace of Liu Dongyue, and could only wait for Liu Dongyue to return himself. Everyone was anxious like ants on a hot pot.
Meanwhile, in Five Directions City.
Golden Lion Tribe.
Today, the Golden Lion Tribe welcomed a distinguished guest.
The approaching person was from the Penglai Demon Race.
Jin Shengnan, the Old Ancestor of the Golden Lion Tribe, personally came out to greet them.
“Two Envoys!”
Seeing that the visitors were two young members of the Penglai Demon Race, Jin Shengnan was also very polite, but he also had some doubts in his heart; wasn’t the Penglai Demon Race disciple Liu Dongyue already in the Green Snake Tribe?
Why would the Penglai Demon Race send people here?
