Chapter 603 – Belonging
”Many thanks to Uncle Yu for his guidance!” Although he felt a bit awkward, Han Li still revealed a respectful expression of thanks on the surface.
As for the bearded man, he grinned. It seemed to be a simple man who was not good with words.
This makes already know that the other party’s origin is a bit of a problem Han Li, heart a burst of speechless. Either the big man’s skill at acting was already out of this world, or this person, really didn’t know about the abnormalities on his body.
But in that case, that Senior Brother Miao’s strange appearance when he saw him could be a bit intriguing. He didn’t believe that a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would also be able to see the coldness in this person’s body. There was definitely a bit of something fishy going on in there.
The youth surnamed Yu seemed quite satisfied with Han Li and the big man’s performance, and after mentioning a few more things, he brought the two of them down in front of a pavilion on the mountainside of Tianquan Peak.
On a verdant platform where they landed, there were two young boys and girls standing side by side saying something, and upon seeing the youth, the two of them immediately stopped talking and walked over.
”Isn’t this Master Yu! Is senior uncle here to look for master ancestor?” The young girl with a baby face that looked like she was only fifteen or sixteen years old asked the youth with a smile on her face. Its casual attitude caused Han Li, who was well aware of the cultivation world’s exceptionally strict deference and inferiority, to be stunned for a moment in his heart.
”Not bad, these two are the external disciples assigned this time, I’m going to let my senior ancestor meet them and then see which senior brother’s discipline is better to be assigned to.” The youth surnamed Yu seemed to be very familiar with this young girl as he said with a hint of a smile.
”It’s the new senior brother ah. In the future, when you have the chance, don’t forget to tell me and Senior Brother Xin, about the secular world, I would love to hear about it.” The young girl’s eyes twinkled at the words, and she said with a sweet smile at Han Li and the big man behind her.
”If Senior Sister wants to listen, why drag me along, I still have to cultivate.” The dark-skinned teenager on the side honestly murmured.
”Cultivation can start anytime, but having a new senior brother from the secular world joining Tianquan Peak is a rare thing, so naturally, we need to listen to some more interesting stories from outside.” Although the young girl was petite in age, she stiffly made an old-fashioned appearance and lectured the youngster, looking really speechless.
The youth surnamed Yu revealed a trace of a bitter smile, and after shaking his head, he brought the two of them into the courtyard on the opposite side without saying any more.
”The two of you pay attention, although Senior Sister Ma and Senior Brother Xin look young and have the same seniority as you, they are the descendants of Master Ancestor in the secular world. Although they have yet to be formally accepted as disciples, it is also something that will happen sooner or later, you mustn’t offend them, or else if Master Ancestor blames them, no one will be able to protect you.” The youthful head walked while speaking out a reminder.
Hearing this, Han Li nodded with a bitter smile. The big man, on the other hand, rubbed the back of his head and smiled without saying anything.
Seeing this expression on the two of them, the youth smiled faintly and exited to comfort him again, ”Senior Brother Xin is an honest person and won’t make any improper moves. That is, Xin Sister is also just a small child away from home, temperament naughty, treating people also has no malicious intent, so you two do not need to be too worried about this matter, as long as a little attention to one or two can be.”
Han Li and the big man, naturally nodded their heads in agreement.
Just as they spoke, several people passed through several courtyards and appeared in front of a quiet chamber.
”Is that Jun’er?” Almost as soon as they appeared in front of the compartment, a faint man’s voice simultaneously resounded in the ears of several people.
”My disciple pays his respects to Master!” As soon as Yu Jun heard this voice, he immediately stopped in his tracks and replied loudly with a solemn expression.
”Your Third Senior Brother and Fifth Senior Sister are also here, bring the two behind you into the house with you.” That clear voice seemed to be in a good mood and said with a smile.
”Yes!” Yu Jun didn’t dare to be slow, and as soon as he greeted Han Li and the big man, he quickly stepped into the compartment inside the half-covered door of the house.
This was a delicate and elegant hall, in addition to a few pots of turquoise unknown flowers and plants, there was only a set of ebony tables and chairs inside, and next to the table was sitting a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian, with an ancient and strange appearance, three strands of black beard fluttering across his chest, an immortal style and a sense of decolonization.
And the sides of this person, but also each stood a man and a woman.
Male white hair, full of wrinkles, is actually a nearly aged old man, smiling but not speaking. The woman’s face is like white jade, handsome, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, expressionless.
Yu Jun hurriedly took a few steps forward and bent down to salute: “See Master, Third Senior Brother, Fifth Senior Sister good!”
”Get up, none of them are outsiders, there’s no need to be so polite. These two are the new disciples who have joined my Heavenly Spring Peak, right!” The middle-aged man flicked his sleeve, allowing the youths to get up on their own. Then he surveyed Han Li and the two of them for a few moments with considerable interest.
Han Li could tell at a glance that this person was a mid JieDan cultivator, and although he was a bit depressed in his heart, he could only call out “Master Ancestor” with a forced smile. The big man did the same.
This Master Ancestor obviously didn’t see the abnormalities in the big man’s body, and certainly didn’t have the aptitude to discover Han Li’s true cultivation level.
Therefore, after asking Han Li and the big man named Du Dong their names and casually saying “not bad” a few times, he turned to the male and female disciples at the side and commanded in a gentle voice, “Since both of you are here, don’t bother the others. One of you is proficient in talisman making, and the other is quite accomplished in alchemy, so you should both be short of manpower. These two new disciples will be led by the two of you for a while. Of course, by the way, instruct them on their cultivation in gongfu, even if they are external disciples, if their cultivation is too low, it will make fellow disciples from other peaks look at them funny.”
”Yes, master! Senior sister and I will take one each.” The white-haired old man responded with a smile on his face.
As for the voluptuous and cold woman in her twenties, after hesitating for a moment, she also nodded slightly.
”Since senior sister has also agreed, I need some more stable and focused helpers for my side’s talisman making, so let this junior nephew Du go over and help out. And Senior Nephew Han will be brought down by Senior Sister!” After thinking about it, the old man then opened his mouth and suggested.
The woman’s expression remained unchanged as she let out a “hmm”, but didn’t look at Han Li at all.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man nodded, but suddenly spoke to Han Li and the big man, “You two go down first. I still have things to discuss with your several master uncles, so you can wait outside the house for a moment.”
Han Li and the big man looked at each other and honestly said yes under their breath before exiting the house and waiting obediently several feet away from the compartment.
Afterward, the big man Du Dong stood still, but raised his head to look at the clear sky, not knowing what to think in a daze. Han Li, on the other hand, revealed a lazy look while secretly listening to the movements within the room. With his powerful divine sense, everything that was said in the room naturally could not escape his ears and eyes. Therefore, although his face was unchanged, his eyes were constantly changing a few different colors.
After a meal, the door to the room opened again, and Yu Jun and the white-haired old man, as well as the cold and colorful woman walked out successively.
The old man without saying a word raised his hand, released a long striped magic weapon, and then rushed to the woman and Yu Jun said two words of farewell, then the big man will be a roll of broken sky and go.
At this time, the woman also walked up to Han Li, and after coldly sweeping a glance at him, she said emotionlessly, “Let’s go, follow me back to the cave.”
The corners of Han Li’s mouth curled up slightly, but then he nodded as if he had recovered.
A red light flashed, and a red haze fell head-on. Han Li stood still and didn’t move!
Two hours later, Han Li appeared within an unfamiliar medicinal garden over a hundred feet in size.
As he looked at the lush greenery of several single herbs within the medicinal garden, and the only three thatched cottages in the center of the medicinal garden, as well as an unnamed hill immediately adjacent to the medicinal garden, Han Li stroked his chin, a faint smile appearing on his face.
The Foundation Establishment mid-range of the colorful cold woman, with a red ribbon, carrying two people flew to the woman’s cave, this called Mu Pei Ling’s “uncle”, asked him is willing to look after the medicine garden, or are willing to learn the art of alchemy with its, which makes Han Li listened to a stunned.
After all, as long as the average cultivator does not have a brain problem, he will definitely request to learn the latter.
But this woman did not wait for Han Li to interface, then coldly preached, looking after the medicinal garden is very simple, as long as the annual submission of a ration of medicinal herbs can be, you can have a lot of time to cultivate the art. And learning alchemy of foreign disciples, although there is the opportunity to contact the profound way of pills, but every month there are timed to complete the refining of pills, compared to the cultivation time is greatly shortened. Therefore, these two jobs had their own pros and cons, allowing Han Li to think carefully before saying anything.
Han Li was overjoyed, and naturally chose his old job of looking after the medicinal garden without a second thought. This job that was practically built for him to keep close to his heart was just the thing to allow for blatant cultivation.
He was originally still wondering how he could escape the numerous chores and focus on cultivation. It all turned out to be so aptly resolved. He and the work of this medicinal herb garden were truly destined for each other!
The voluptuous and cold woman revealed no surprise at Han Li’s choice to work in the medicinal garden.
Immediately brought him to this place, let him and the original work in the medicine garden a female disciple handover, leaving a record of water attribute technique “Xuan Ice Skill” jade slip, with the original caretaker, flew away from this place.
Now this place has become Han Li’s territory.
