Chapter 15: Four Years Later

　　Dr. Mo was satisfied that Han Li was able to devote all of his time to cultivation. However, the progress of his nameless oral skill cultivation was still too slow.

　　In recent years, the illness on Dr. Mo’s body seemed to have gotten worse. The number of times he coughed every day became more frequent, and the duration of his cough was also more prolonged.

　　As his physical condition deteriorated, Dr. Mo’s progress in Han Li’s cultivation seemed to be of even greater concern. From his usual words of repeated urging, one could hear the anxiety in his heart.

　　Doctor Mo should have attached great importance to Han Li. Not only did he send him much more silver than the average disciple as agreed, but the gaze he usually looked at him with was also very peculiar, as if he was looking at a rare treasure and lovingly caring for it.

　　However, Han Li, who had practiced to the third layer of the oral skill, had become very keen in his senses, and he inadvertently discovered that behind these kind and caring gazes, there was also an occasional hint of greed and longing that made Han Li uneasy.

　　These looks made Han Li a bit creeped out, and he always felt that Dr. Mo, who exuded these looks, was looking at himself not as if he was looking at a living person, but as if he was looking at an object.

　　This made him a little confused, what could he have that Dr. Mo wanted?

　　Of course there wasn’t, he answered himself in the affirmative.

　　Han Li sometimes even thought that he was practicing his kung fu to the point of becoming a bit allergic, and in secret, he belittled Dr. Mo, which was really a bit ungrateful.

　　However, he himself didn’t know why, in the most secret place underneath his heart, there was still a point of precautionary intent towards Dr. Mo, and as time passed, this precautionary intent became even stronger.

　　Now there is a major problem in front of Han Li, he has encountered a bottleneck in practicing kung fu, and what’s worse is that with the large amount of medication that Han Li has been consuming over the past few years, the precious medication in Dr. Mo’s hands has been wiped out.

　　It was obvious that Han Li was not a heavenly genius, and without the aid of the medication, his progress in cultivation had completely stagnated.

　　This made Han Li ashamed when he faced Dr. Mo: Dr. Mo had used almost all of his heart and family’s possessions on himself, creating the best cultivation conditions for himself, while he was unable to fulfill his requirements.

　　This made Han Li feel like it was hard for him to face Dr. Mo and his momentary fervent inquiries.

　　Strangely enough, for some reason, the highly skilled martial arts practitioner Dr. Mo was unable to detect the details of Han Li’s cultivation, and could only learn a thing or two about his progress from taking his pulse, so he had been unaware of the dilemma Han Li was facing all these days.

　　Not long ago, Han Li, who was uneasy in his heart, finally confessed his cultivation situation to Dr. Mo.

　　When Dr. Mo heard that Han Li hadn’t improved on his mantra for a year, his burnt yellow skin turned a little white, and his face, which was originally expressionless, became even more unsightly.

　　Dr. Mo did not blame him, but only told him that he was going to go down the mountain for a while to find some medicinal herbs and come back, so that he could seize the opportunity to practice on the mountain, and not to relax his oral skill cultivation.

　　After two days, Dr. Mo left the Seven Mysteries Sect alone with his luggage and medicine gathering tools. After he left, Han Li was the only one left in the entire Divine Hand Valley.

　　Another senior brother and good friend, Zhang Tie, suddenly disappeared two years ago when he practiced the third layer of the Elephant Armor Technique. He only left behind a letter of resignation to go into the world, which caused a furor in the entire Seven Xuan Clan. Later, I heard that it was Dr. Mo who pleaded for leniency, and only then did he not involve his recommenders and relatives. This makes Han Li feel too sudden, sad for a few days, a little later to think about vaguely feel not quite right, but he is small words, no one asked him, this matter is also unsettled. Later, Han Li guessed, Zhang Tie is not afraid of “Elephant Armor” fourth layer of training, before unknowingly, secretly slipped away.

　　Cultivate in the valley for a few days, also did not see any effect, and Han Li is also a teenager temperament, out of the God’s Hand Valley, in the colorful Xia Mountain wandering up. Walking on these mountain paths that were both familiar and a bit unfamiliar, Han Li’s heart felt a bit of emotion.

　　During these few years, in order to practice, Han Li was as if he was in prison, and hadn’t stepped out of the small valley once. It was estimated that those fellow disciples outside had also long forgotten all about Han Li as a senior brother.

　　On the way, he encountered some disciples patrolling the mountain, seeing him wearing the clothing of a disciple within the door, but his appearance was unfamiliar, they were alert and came forward to interrogate him, letting him spend a great deal of time explaining before he was able to get away.

　　In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Han Li simply only pick the goat’s intestine path, to the secluded place to go, to avoid the crowded place to go.

　　Sure enough, the road was no longer filled with those pesky interrogations, allowing him to walk farther and farther with impunity along the way.

　　Looking at the beauty of these very different from the valley, listening to the chirping of various birds, for a time all the worries were Han Li he threw to the back of his mind.

　　Suddenly a burst of weapons clashing, the sound of many people drinking and cheering, from under a relatively hidden cliff, faintly came over.

　　Such a remote place! So many people gathered together! And such fiery sounds!

　　Han Li’s curiosity rose, and no longer afraid of being questioned, he chased after the sounds of fighting and arrived near this cliff.

　　What a big scene! He couldn’t help but be slightly stunned and taken aback.

　　Underneath this cliff that was completely covered by trees, there were more than a hundred people who were surrounding there, this not-so-large area was crowded by so many people, and even on a few of the larger trees in the vicinity, there were a few people who were standing on the branches of the trees, gazing out from there.

　　Within the circle surrounded by so many people, two waves of people were facing each other with hostility.

　　The left side had the most people, with eleven or twelve people, while the right side was smaller, with six or seven people.

　　Han Li realized that all of these people, whether they were onlookers or standing in the middle of the field, were similar in age to himself, all just in their teens.

　　A slight smile appeared on Han Li’s face, what a coincidence!

　　Among so many people, he easily recognized a few familiar old faces.

　　”Wan Jinbao, Zhang Dalu, Ma Yun, and Sun Lixong …… Hehe! Wang DaFat is even fatter than before, it’s really worthy that his family is a dry cook, it’s delicious and well-fed! This person is? It’s Liu Tietou, tsk! Tsk! The formerly dark and black charcoal head has turned into a little white man!” Han Li also climbed up a tree and did a big roll call of the familiar faces below.
