Chapter 1287 – Chasing and Killing
”My mother is discussing matters with Leader Zhang, please come in, Senior Brother Qin!” Pan Qing mouthed back, then rushed Han Li in the back to greet him.
Han Li didn’t have too bad of an impression of this young master of the Tiandong Merchant Company, so of course he wouldn’t be rude, nodding his head in return and grabbing the girl who was clinging to his body onto the ground in one smooth motion.
But the girl’s feet landed on the ground, the body and a pounce under, as if the kraft-like again close to Han Li’s body, the small hand at the same time dead grasp of its lapel.
Although there are a few anticipation, but really see this scene, Han Li is still some depressed sigh, had to be so with a small tail into away from the wooden house.
The house is a temporary construction of things, so the area is not too big, only seven or eight feet big like, but also cleaned up, and even a set of fine sandalwood furniture placed in it.
This set of furniture is naturally not a temporary construction!
That beautiful looking Mrs. Fang was sitting on the main seat saying something to Zhang Kui, and beside her, there were six people standing with their hands tied.
A pair of gray-robed hulks were the very same pair of guards that had suffered a small loss in Han Li’s hands that day, and the four young girls were the four maids of honor such as Liu’er.
The entrance of Han Li and the others naturally interrupted Mrs. Fang’s speech, and this woman rose to greet them, “Immortal Master Qin, you’ve finally returned. I was planning to have Leader Zhang accompany you guys on your walk ……, hehe, Leader Han was brought back by you guys, that’s great, this doesn’t need to be redundant for my concubine. Isn’t this …… Zhao City Lord’s granddaughter?” Mrs. Fang revealed an expression of surprise upon seeing Han Li. However, when her gaze swept the girl next to Han Li, her face revealed another expression of surprise all at once.
The rest of the people were similarly taken aback when they saw Han Li and the girl. It was only Liu’er and the other four maids who were naturally somewhat joyful.
”City Lord Zhao? Could it be that the lady is talking about An Yuan City’s City Lord Zhao?” The brocade-robed man was stunned.
”Other than this City Lord Zhao, which one could it be?” Lady Fang said with an odd expression on her face.
”City Lord Zhao’s body refining technique is almost no less than that of a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, so even if the city breaks down, he should still be able to escape with his life. If he knew that his granddaughter was safe and sound, he would have been overjoyed. Just don’t know here, is there still a family member of City Lord Zhao here?” The man surnamed Qin said thoughtfully.
”It seems like there’s an old housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion and a few subordinates who are nearby. I’ll send someone to look for them.” Mrs. Fang smiled and turned her head to command a few words from the big man to leave the house, not even bothering to ask the girl in detail why she was with Han Li.
”For Leader Han to be able to make it through the beasts unharmed, it really did make my concubine a bit surprised. However, this time, there were actually four waves of beasts attacking a single An Yuan City at the same time, so I don’t see how I can feel that there’s something wrong.” As soon as the brocade-robed man and the others took their seats, Mrs. Fang said with a slight frown on her brows.
”There is something odd. A large beast tide of this scale would be nothing strange if it was placed in a medium-sized city. If it’s placed in a small city, it’s a bit strange. According to past practice, when the beast tide broke out, the Qingluo Desert was not close to Anyuan City, the Sandworm Beast should not have appeared, and even because it was not far away from the Red Python Beast’s entrenchment, it would have pulled the Red Python Beast’s hind legs, instead of running so far and specifically coming to attack Anyuan City.” The man surnamed Qin seemed to be somewhat skeptical as well.
”Senior brother means that the breaking of An Yuan City really had a high-level demonic beast intervene.” Pan Qing’s face was shocked as he lost his voice.
”This is not easy to say, it is also possible that it is really just a coincidence, but no matter how the truth of this matter is, it is not for us at this level to intervene, there are our own seniors from Tian Yuan City to investigate this matter.” The brocade-robed man shook his head in return.
”What Immortal Master Qin has said is reasonable, we don’t need to discuss this matter much. In fact, if An Yuan City had hundreds more Foundation Establishment cultivators to help out, these beasts would still not be enough to fear.” After Mrs. Fang’s eyes flickered, she suddenly said so.
”This matter is simply impossible. Although there are countless Third Realm Immortal Cultivators, there are only a few that appear in human cities coinciding with the outbreak of a beast tide and are willing to help. After all, the human city is actually too many mortals, the nearby aura is much thinner than the rest of the place, not to mention that it can not be compared to those spiritual mountains and spiritual places. Immortal cultivators are reluctant to come to a mortal city if they are not busy with mundane matters. Even our Immortal Cultivator’s workshop market, except for a few big cities directly controlled by cultivators can be set up, the rest of the small and medium-sized cities are simply not qualified to open. This is also the reason why there will not be any outbreaks of beasts at all in the several large cities. I’m afraid that there are millions of low level cultivators that appear in those cities every day. What kind of beast swarm would dare to attack such cities.” The man surnamed Qin faintly returned.
”Millions?” Although Han Li knew that the number of cultivators in the Spirit Realm was staggering, the corners of his mouth still couldn’t help but twitch when he heard that the number of cultivators flowing through a single city was so terrifying.
”It was the concubine who was a bit extravagant. The Three Realms are so large, and the area controlled by mortal cities is but a drop in the bucket. Naturally, it wouldn’t be placed too much in the eyes of the Immortal Masters.” Lady Fang sighed lightly.
Hearing Lady Fang’s slightly dissatisfied words, the brocade-robed man who was also an Immortal Cultivator could only reveal a bitter smile.
This point of contradiction between mortals and cultivators was known to everyone, and how could he dare to easily interface with it when he was merely a small cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Just at this moment, a word of report came from outside the door of the house:
”Your Ladyship, City Lord Zhao’s butler has been brought in, is it possible to let him in?”
”Naturally, let him come in.” Mrs. Fang returned without thinking.
”Yes!” With a respectful yes, the door of the house opened and three people walked in from outside.
One of them was none other than the gray-robed big man, while the other two were a slim, clean-cut young girl and an old man with white hair.
Upon seeing the two people behind them, the girl who had originally clutched onto Han Li’s lapel, her petite body shook, and for the first time, a happy expression appeared on her small face.
”It’s really Miss Sun, that’s great. Miss Dai’er, are you alright, let Lan’er take a look at ……,” that clean-cut young girl immediately ran over as soon as she saw the girl, half squatting in front of the girl at once, and said with some choking sobs.
And for the first time, the girl also let go of Han Li’s lapel and hugged the young girl, her small mouth pursed as she cried.
”Many thanks to Mrs. Fang for retrieving Miss Sun, otherwise the old slave wouldn’t know how to explain to the master.” That old man was equally surprised and unusual, rushing at Mrs. Fang to thank her repeatedly.
”This isn’t the concubine’s credit, it was Leader Han who stepped in to save Miss Zhao.” Mrs. Fang did not take credit for it and gave a slight nod at Han Li.
”Many thanks to this gentleman, the old slave will definitely report this matter to the master and will thank you heavily.” The old man hurriedly rushed Han Li this way again.
”Saving this young lady from your mansion is just a matter of lifting a finger, there is no need to thank anything. You take this little girl away.” Han Li looked the old man up and down for a few moments, and after determining that the other party was an ordinary person, he said with a wave of his hand.
Next, the old man said some more words of gratitude before leaving with the girl and the maid who appeared to be a servant girl.
Although the girl named Dai’er no longer pestered Han Li, but before leaving the door still repeatedly looked back at Han Li, black eyes implied reluctance.
Seeing the girl puppy-like cute appearance, Han Li suddenly childishly big heart at this woman made a face, and then again face up.
Han Li’s behavior like this naturally caused the girl to giggle for a while, finally leaving the house with a sweet smile.
”It seems that Brother Han has a soft spot for this little girl, but while City Lord Zhao is truly safe and sound, with the city broken and so many people dying under the beasts, even with many more excuses, the culpability is not small. The Zhao family’s situation isn’t going to be too good.” The brocade-robed man, who had been secretly watching Han Li’s movements, suddenly said this.
”What does this have to do with Han. The Zhao Family’s affairs should naturally be worried by someone with the surname Zhao.” Han Li glanced at the man with the surname Qin, his complexion suddenly bland and abnormal.
”Hehe, that’s Mister Qin being nosy. Mrs. Fang, since Brother Han has returned. Shouldn’t we also name some things with Brother Han?” The brocade-robed man hemmed and hawed, and suddenly turned his head and rushed at Mrs. Fang.
”Name words? Oh, this is natural. To ask for Mr. Han’s help, naturally I need to make things a bit clearer. I’m afraid that this time, I’ll need Duke Han to assist Immortal Master Qin with a trip.” Lady Fang was stunned at his words, but immediately reacted, becoming polite all of a sudden.
”Let’s hear it from Mrs. Fang, in case it’s too significant and beyond my ability. I won’t delay the great event of Madam and Immortal Master Qin.” Han Li stroked his chin and said noncommittally.
”The matter is like this, a merchant fleet under my command inadvertently discovered an item that can increase a cultivator’s chances of conjugating dan by a large margin ……,” Mrs. Fang organized her thoughts and slowly recounted.
Han Li did not move and listened silently, no one could tell how his heart was thinking.
Who also do not know, almost at the same time, far away in ten thousand miles away from a forest in the sky, a purple light is flying fast speed, but in the back is followed by a large small two leopard bird beasts, the big body shape is amazing, the small but covered with blue light flash, it is a few days ago in front of the city of Anyuan appeared in the two head of the demonic bird.
And the front of the purple light in the silhouette flickering, hidden a person in the imperial weapon speeding.
Suddenly, the purple light in front of him trembled, the light converged, and a purple-robed man appeared. His feet stepped on a rectangular thing, is towards the bottom of the rapid fall down, looks like it seems to have lost control.
Behind the two demon birds see this, natural joy, a few flashes on the chase up, one of the two wings a fan, immediately countless roots of yellow mango densely shot out, cover to the landing of the purple-robed man, while the other small some of the mouth, but a sound of thunder, a piercing blue arc jetted out.
The purple-robed man saw this, the heart is anxious, mouth a loud cry, feet violently stepped on the things underfoot, the momentum of the fall doubled, the whole person meteors a dodge these attacks, and all of a sudden did not enter the woods below, disappeared.
