Chapter 562 – Yuan Yao and the Qingyang Sect
Among the cultivators present, the skull-faced duo and the refined man, the old man, seemed not to know each other originally, and along with that, no one had asked about Han Li’s origins. Among them, the refined man, moreover, once he saw that the number of people present was five, he no longer hesitated to rush Han Li and the others with a clasp of his fist and said, ”Under the name of Ke Yu, I have been ordered to come to convey the mission and lead the way for the three seniors. This is my token, please have the three seniors examine it.” After the refined man respectfully finished speaking, he drew a black token from his waist and handed it to Han Li. It was clear that this one regarded the three as a group, and since Han Li had the highest cultivation, he naturally took the lead.
Han Li’s lips closed tightly reached out to receive a hand, that token grabbed the hand swept a glance, and threw it to the side of the skeleton without caring.
The skeleton likewise looked twice, and threw it back to the refined man without caring, and said lazily under his breath, “What’s there to look at in the token, if it’s not the teleportation array at that end that releases you, you’re a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, how do you qualify for teleportation to this place. There is no need to check the identities of the several of us, the people gathered here at this time, other than us law enforcement envoys who have received orders, there can’t be any outsiders. Just tell us straight away what mission you have.”
The skeleton seemed to be very familiar with this set of words, revealing a look of impatience after saying these words in a grand manner.
The refined man across from him who called himself Ke Yu hesitated for a moment upon hearing this, but then smiled awkwardly, not mentioning the matter of testing Han Li and the others’ identities in the slightest anymore, but instead dryly coughed and introduced the old man beside him.
”This senior Ding, is the Protector of the Qingyang Sect. This mission is actually for the three seniors to assist Senior Ding in capturing a major criminal of the Qingyang Sect. Several seniors will discuss the specific matters on their own, the latecomer is only responsible for the introduction.” As soon as Ke Yu finished his introduction, he took a well-behaved step back, allowing the elder to deal with Han Li and the others personally.
”Qingyang Sect? Could it be that Qingyang Sect of the Three Suns Superior.” The skeleton’s two eyes flashed with blue light, revealing a look of astonishment.
The Evil Man and Han Li beside him also changed their faces slightly when they heard this.
”Heh! It seems that there’s no need for me to say more, as all three of you know the name of our sect’s ancestor. This time, it was the Ancestor of our Sect who personally requested assistance from the Six Paths Alliance Master of your Alliance. Because this key criminal is not only a JieDan stage cultivator, but also carries several pieces of the Qingyang Sect’s greatest treasures, and has escaped the pursuit for many years. It was only recently that our sect inadvertently learned of his whereabouts. Originally, if the ancestor himself, naturally hand to capture, but helplessly, the ancestor has another important matter in the body, really lack of time, which asked a few friends to come here to assist a couple of. I think we four JieDan cultivators together, will be able to capture the demon girl alive.” The Qingyang Sect’s Ding surname old man smiled faintly and said with an arch at the three of them, but when he said the last sentence, his expression was unconsciously gloomy.
”Could it be a female cultivator?” Upon hearing the words “demoness”, the evil man asked in doubt.
Han Li, on the other hand, frowned, vaguely remembering something.
”Not bad, the demoness is called Yuan Yao, and was originally just a concubine that the young master of my sect was preparing to take in. However, it did not occur to me that this demoness was ruthless, but instead, relying on her superior beauty and the art of fox charming, she even teamed up with another woman to assassinate the young master of the sect, and rolled away the treasures and rare elixirs on the young master’s body, and then used it to form the Golden Pill. Three sun ancestor only young master so a heir, this woman naturally hate to the bone. If the three of you can help Mister Ding capture this woman alive, my sect will definitely have another thank you, and we will never let our fellow Daoists put in their efforts for nothing.” The old man gritted his teeth a bit once he spoke of his goal, but he also seemed to not want to talk about this matter much, and sidetracked the topic after a slight introduction.
The skeleton and the evil man exchanged glances, revealing a look of indifference, while Han Li rubbed his nose, speechless in his heart.
Sure enough, he was talking about this woman, Yuan Yao! This rather mysterious voluptuous woman was actually of such an origin, which was really out of Han Li’s expectations.
He had originally wondered why this woman had formed a Jindan in such a short period of time, and had been mysterious after her subsequent encounter, but it turned out to be the reason why she had ransacked what young master of the sect and was being pursued by the Qingyang Sect. It seems that that young master of the Qingyang Sect must have a lot of rare pills on him, all of which were cheap for Yuan Yao. But seeing as this woman was about to be unlucky, should she step in to stir up trouble? This made Han Li somewhat hesitant. Although he and this woman could not be called friends, they were barely considered acquaintances.
Right at this moment, the skeleton beside him had already spoken, ”Since this is an order from above, without any reward, my brothers and I will definitely contribute as well. I wonder where this woman is now? Since we were told to gather here, it must not be too far away from here!” This one, don’t look scary in appearance, but he was very meticulous.
”This fellow Daoist is right, the demoness is secluded on a deserted island north of Huangming Island. If it wasn’t for the fact that she went out shopping once and was inadvertently recognized by a disciple of this sect and tailed her to her lair, I’m afraid that I haven’t heard from her yet. This woman is exceptionally cunning, carrying treasures of great power, even including the secret treasure of the sect Qing Yang Lei, I hope that all of you friends are more careful one or two.” The old man cautioned under his breath, and deliberately arched his hand at Han Li. After all, with Han Li’s late stage Jiedan cultivation, the old man naturally valued it extremely highly.
However, what this person never expected was that although Han Li nodded his head expressionlessly, what he was contemplating in his heart was the matter of striking out to wipe out the entirety of several people. However, when Han Li heard that Yuan Yao was nearby, his heart couldn’t help but move, and he instantly made up his mind, deciding to go and meet this woman for a while, and then take the opportunity to ask for an important thing after saving her.
At this time that refined man Ke Yu see a few people have finished discussing, then respectfully asked the crowd, then in front of the lead the way towards the cave outside.
A cloaked cultivator looked at the teleportation array under his feet, and was puzzled for a while in his heart. When he first entered the room, the array was still flashing normally, but when he was about to teleport, the array inexplicably malfunctioned. This made him touch the back of his head, secretly depressed.
After leaving the guarded prohibition, Han Li and the others appeared on the edge of a mountain cliff. After looking at the village and town faintly visible in the distance, several people flew into the sky one after another. Then, under the guidance of the old man from the Green Yang Sect, they flew away from the island and headed north.
There was nothing to do along the way, and several people were all bored and rushing along.
Han Li cultivation is the highest, plus a cold and uninviting appearance, no one is not interested in finding its conversation. As a result, after half a day, the five of them came upon a small island that was only tens of miles in circumference.
”This is it, the demoness is hiding in one of the hills!” With a flash of cold light in his eyes, the old man first stopped his transport and said in a cold voice.
Han Li and the others then stopped in mid-air together, looking towards this island from afar. Apart from the sparse small patches of grass and trees on the island, there were only a few small rocky mountains, and the spiritual qi was extremely thin as well.
”Fellow Daoist Ding, have you found the wrong place? How could a demoness, a JieDan stage cultivator, find such a place to cultivate.” After looking at it for a while, the ugly-looking man couldn’t help but ask, a look of doubt on his face.
”Don’t worry, it’s definitely this place.” The old man surnamed Ding said back with confidence. Subsequently, he pinched his magic symbol with both hands, then raised one hand, and a dazzling yellow light shot up into the sky.
A few moments later, from the other side of the island, the same yellow light rose from afar.
When the old man saw it, his face rejoiced and he hurriedly turned his face to Han Li and the others and spoke, ”Let’s go. There are disciples of this sect there who have been monitoring this woman’s whereabouts, and it seems that the demon girl has not left this island.”
After saying his words, the old man did not have the intention to move, and as a result, after a while, a red light flew from another yellow aura, arriving in front of several people in the blink of an eye. After the light was closed, appeared a gray man, about forty years old, the appearance of the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. On top of his sleeve, there was also a green flame mark embroidered on it, only much smaller than the old man’s.
”Disciple has met Elder Ding and several seniors!” The man recognized the old man surnamed Ding at a glance and didn’t dare to be slow as he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them and said respectfully.
The old man waved his hand carelessly and asked in a deep voice, “Is the demoness still on the island, she hasn’t left this place, right?”
”No! Ever since disciple tailed her back to this island, the demoness has never left her cave.” The middle-aged man said affirmatively.
”Good, you’ve done a good job on this matter. When this matter is over, go back and promote you to inner disciple. Now bring lead the way in front.” The old man appreciated and said solemnly.
”Many thanks for the promotion, senior apprentice! Disciple will lead the way now.” When the middle-aged man heard this, he said in a loud voice with an ecstatic expression on his face. Then this person turned around and led a few people straight to the island.
In the blink of an eye, a group of people came to the sky above the island, the middle-aged man pointed to one of the rocky mountains, said respectfully to the crowd: “When that demon girl came back last time, I did not dare to get close enough to follow and see because of my low cultivation, but just to see her close to the mountain, she disappeared without a trace. It is estimated that this woman’s cave is in this mountain.”
Skeleton head heard this, eyes flashing strange light measured this stone mountain a few eyes, mouth slowly nodded: “good, stone mountain surface is being cast what clever forbidden system. It is also I and so close to deliberately check, if it is far from the air when passing by, absolutely can not find this island is different. No wonder, this woman can hide here for many years without incident.”
