Chapter 722 – Heavenly Extreme Sect
”Both you and Senior Brother Lu didn’t leave here as promised, can I not come back?” Han Li sighed and said somewhat helplessly, but then after looking at Mu Pei Ling a few more times, he laughed lightly. “But I really didn’t expect that you actually broke through the bottleneck during this period and entered the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, it’s really something to be congratulated!”
”My concubine only managed to break through half a month ago. This is thanks to the merit of Gongzi’s pills, otherwise, Peiling wouldn’t have entered the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in such a short period of time anyway.” Mu Peiling was also extremely excited, and her flowery face appeared even more delicate and charming as she spoke, Han Li’s mind shook as he watched, but then he rubbed his nose and his mind returned to its normal state.
”You and Senior Brother Lu have not left this place, is it because of the Fa Shi.” Han Li asked casually without comment.
”Your Excellency has already guessed. Senior Lv and I did intend to return as soon as the trade fair was over, but who would have thought that the news of the Farseer invasion would come at the end of the trade fair. Senior Lu, as the Heavenly Dao Alliance’s Infantless Cultivator in T阗天城, had to stay behind to discuss some countermeasures with the other forces, and my concubine was stranded.” Mu Wei bit her red lips and said carefully.
”In that case, it is indeed not your fault. However, Senior Brother Lu he is now ……” Han Li was continuing to ask, suddenly his face showed a slight surprise, stopping the questioning in his mouth at once.
Mu Pei Ling was stunned, still do not understand Han Li intention, suddenly heard a young man outside the attic ban shouting: “Mu Taoist friends in? I’m Bai Shujun, please come out to meet Fellow Daoist Mu.”
”Who is this man? You’ve recognized him recently!” Han Li’s divine sense swept outward and discovered an elegant-looking JieDan young man who was standing calmly outside the barricade toward the pavilion, and he couldn’t help but ask thoughtfully and blandly.
When Mu Pei Ling heard the man’s voice, his face instantly turned white, and when he heard Han Li’s question, he hurriedly opened his mouth to explain: ”Don’t misunderstand me, sir. This person is a disciple of an elder of the Heavenly Extremities Sect, who inadvertently saw me the other day and has been pestering me ever since. I’ve already said that I’m your son’s concubine. But this person is still in hot pursuit. I will drive him away here.”
”There is such a thing? Does Senior Brother Lu know about it?” Han Li raised both eyebrows and asked with an unchanged expression.
”I told Senior Lu about this matter, but Senior Lu seemed to know that Heavenly Extremity Sect Elder and had some scruples about it, telling me to deal with it in vain for the time being, and to wait for Gongzi to return for everything.” Mu Pei Ling saw that Han Li did not become angry, and returned with a sigh of relief in her heart.
”Oh! Tianji Sect, isn’t it one of the four major factions of the Righteous Alliance? No wonder Senior Brother Lu is so careful. However, for a tiny JieDan cultivator to dare to be so reckless, he seems to be a bit too bold. You should come down with me and see what this junior’s intentions are.” Han Li grimaced for a moment before saying with a cold smile.
”As you command, my lord!” Mu Pei Ling replied respectfully after being stunned for a moment.
Han Li left the door of the house without saying anything at this point and headed downstairs, with Mu Pei Ling following closely behind.
”Fellow Daoist Mu, you’re finally …… eek! Seniors are …… “Seeing someone walk out of the attic, the young man who called himself Bai Shujun originally thought it was the woman of his choice, but when he saw Han Li, he was first stunned, and then saw that Han Li’s cultivation was unfathomable, and immediately greeted him with a change of color.
At this time, Mu Pei Ling also turned out from behind Han Li and stood next to him on one side. When the young man with the white surname saw this, his expression changed several times if he was enlightened.
”You’re a Heavenly Extremity Sect disciple?” Han Li’s face sank as he rushed the youth and asked in an impolite voice.
”Not bad, my junior is a disciple of Elder Lu of the Heavenly Extremity Sect. Could senior be Elder Han?” Bai Shujun was truly somewhat unusual, even when faced with Han Li, a YuanYing stage cultivator, the panic on his face only flickered before he courteously asked.
”Speak! What exactly do you mean, why are you pestering my concubine? There should be some other purpose for doing something like this that doesn’t use your brain.” Han Li’s voice was cold. And when Mu Pei Ling heard these words, a trace of consternation appeared on her jade face.
”Seniors see clearly! Actually, it was my master who wanted to meet senior, but seeing that senior Han had been nowhere to be found, he asked my junior to do so. However, I also truly like Daoist Mu, so if senior is willing to fulfill senior, senior will definitely be grateful.” The youth surnamed Bai smiled before saying in a civilized manner.
”Grateful? What use do I want your gratitude for, no need to daydream! Mister Han’s concubines aren’t in the habit of letting people in. On the contrary, I’ve had no dealings with your Tianji Sect, so why are you looking for me out.”
Han Li’s eyes narrowed, towards the side of the no man’s land, seemingly looking at a glance, his face appeared a strange smile, at the same time, his body released a shocking spiritual pressure that rushed up to the sky.
The white young man’s face changed greatly “thump” backward several meters, and then both shoulders sinking as if the top of a mountain, both knees are soft to kneel directly. His heart was shocked, hastily want to resist the huge force a few times, but the body trembled a few times, or the shape of a short.
In its seemingly kneeling without kneeling at the time, suddenly a white shadow from the side suddenly emerged, and then flashed to the white young man before, and will be a palm on its shoulder gently a beat. At that moment, Bai Shujun, who was originally going to kneel down, had his pressure suddenly reduced and stood up again.
This was a white-robed old man with gray hair, kind brows, and decent features. As Han Li gazed at him, the old man also said at Han Li with a slight smile, “Fellow Daoist Han, don’t be angry, in fact, the matter was that the old man had allowed his young disciple to do so, or else I would not have been able to meet fellow Daoist to this day!”
”What is your honor’s name, and why do you want to meet me? If Mister Han remembers correctly, it seems like this is the first time I’ve dealt with your sect, and Your Excellency has even never met.” As soon as he saw the white-robed old man appear out, the spiritual pressure on Han Li’s body instantly dispersed, while his complexion instantly returned to normal, as if everything had never happened just now.
”Hehe! Old man Lu Weiying, Tim resides in the position of Heavenly Extreme Sect Elder. As for the reason for wanting to see you, it’s not very convenient to go into detail here, if you want to know the root cause, then come here tonight to gather. At that time, Dao Friend Han will naturally know the details.” This Elder Lu was unfazed, and then with a single hand, a green jade slip that had already been prepared shot out.
Han Li expressionlessly flung out his sleeve, and a green haze flew out, rolling the jade slip into his sleeve. Divine sense toward the sleeve of the thing, slightly swept through, indeed there is an address inside like. Han Li did not look at it in detail, and when he raised his head to say something, the old man from the Heavenly Extreme Sect directly clasped his hands together and drifted away with the young man surnamed Bai.
His brows tightened. The other party was so godlike, seeming to know something but misunderstanding something, as if mistakenly believing that some time ago, he had been right in Tepidian City, and had intentionally stealthily disappeared.
Han Li stroked his chin, and for a moment was also a bit confused, so he didn’t make another move to intercept him, but after thinking about it for a bit, he returned to the attic with Mu Pei Ling.
”Where is Senior Brother Lu now?” Han Li asked calmly as he entered the attic. The matter just now was not mentioned in the slightest, as if it was instantly forgotten.
”I heard that the battle ahead is once again tight, and Senior Lv has gone to discuss countermeasures with them.”
”Discussing strategies, in what place?” Han Li asked with a bit of interest.
”It’s in Tepid Sky City’s Council Hall. I’ve heard that as long as the cultivation level reaches the YuanYing stage, all the major power cultivators can participate. Could it be that Your Excellency wants to go and take a look?” Mu Pei Ling said softly.
”The Deliberation Hall?” Han Li murmured, but a huge hall built in the middle of Tepid Sky City had already appeared in his mind. The area near there was heavily forbidden, so it should be the so-called Deliberative Great Hall.
”Good, I was just about to find out about the situation of the Farseers, so I’ll go there first and take a look before I say anything. You stay here and don’t just go out.” Han Li already had a plan in mind, and as soon as he knew the whereabouts of that Senior Brother Lu, he immediately instructed this woman to say a few words before leaving the attic.
The so-called “Deliberation Hall” was actually constructed in the middle of the city under a huge platform, eye-catching and unusual, but in addition to the major events related to the life and death of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, this building was generally just a symbolic place, and very few people would come. But after more than a hundred years, after the news of the Muzhuang Daoren’s invasion again came, the senior management of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance did not hesitate to open this huge hall, and summoned other forces to discuss with the cultivators. After all, this time, the Farseers had come with such force that it seemed like it would be difficult for the Nine Kingdoms Alliance alone to resist.
When Han Li arrived at the front of the council hall, the guard at the door took a look at Han Li’s cultivation and asked for his name, then immediately reported inside. Han Li easily obtained permission to enter, and then, under the respectful leadership of a cultivator, entered the hall.
There weren’t many YuanYing cultivators deliberating in the hall, only a dozen or so, which was far below Han Li’s expectations. However, he understood after a moment’s thought, although this Tepid Sky City had gathered many YuanYing cultivators, most of them belonged to a few major powers, so naturally they didn’t need to come here, as long as they sent a few representatives. That senior brother Lu was sitting on a chair on the left side, looking at him with a smile. The one right next to him he also recognized, was actually the Fire Dragon Child.
As for the others, other than a yellow-robed old man, he was a stranger. And Han Li couldn’t help but sigh in his heart after looking at the yellow-robed old man for a couple more moments; this old man was none other than the former Yellow Maple Valley’s Linghu Old Ancestor!
