Chapter 116 – Turning the other cheek
Upon hearing this, Han Li tilted his head and snorted, then laughed coldly, “Wrongfully accusing me? What a big mouth, do you think I’m really afraid of your Mo Mansion?”
”If it wasn’t for the fact that Mo Shi Zhen had been my master for a few days and taught me quite a bit of medical skills, and that bullying a woman’s family doesn’t have a good reputation. Humph! With just you guys? With one hand, I can kill all of your entire household without leaving a single chicken or dog behind!” Han Li’s words were cold to the bone, and his expression was eerie.
Han Li had made up his mind that since he was no longer able to trick the Mo Mansion into getting the precious jade, he would only have to take a strong-armed approach for the sake of the insidious poison on his body. He planned to show off some of his skills and let Yan and the others know how powerful they were, and then force the “Warm Sun Jade” over.
When Yan and the others first heard Han Li’s harsh words, their faces were stunned at first, but then they laughed coldly, and the third wife, Liu, even laughed so hard that she bent over.
It was clear that these women did not believe what Han Li had said. But before long, the smiles on their faces completely froze.
Because Han Li stretched out a finger at this time, and a fire ball suddenly appeared on his fingertip, this wineglass-sized fireball appeared, the entire room’s temperature suddenly rose up, so that the women as if they had entered the scorching heat in general.
Then Han Li coldly looked across the room, intending to find an object to use as a target for his “fire bomb technique”, so that these women know something powerful. But did not expect, not yet wait for him to act, “Immortal cultivator!” Li could not help but scream out, a face of fear.
The others, too, all lost their colors, even the cold-hearted fifth lady, also moved up, looking at Han Li’s gaze filled with surprise.
These women knew about Immortal Cultivators, which in turn caused Han Li to be taken aback, but his face looked even more somber.
”You’re really an Immortal Cultivator?” Third Lady Liu’s beautiful eyes widened as she half-heartedly asked out.
Han Li grunted, without saying a word, simply put the finger slightly flick, the fireball “hula” a hit on the table next to Liu’s, the results of the table in the blink of an eye turned into ashes.
This action, the Liu’s face scared swish, all white. She hastily got up, away from the ashes back a few steps, only to stop in shock, at this moment that chu chu moving tender expression, if other men see, I’m afraid that must immediately for the madness can not.
Unfortunately, Han Li couldn’t care less about enjoying this scene, now he was staring at Li’s who called out the name “Immortal Cultivator” and asked in a gloomy voice: “Second Lady, how do you know about Immortal Cultivators? Have you seen other Immortal Cultivators?”
”I ……” Li was terrified, she was greatly afraid of Han Li’s Immortal Cultivator status.
”Don’t ask second sister, about the Immortal Cultivator, I’ll just tell you!” Yan, who was on the side, leaned back and closed her eyes with a tired look on her face, then spoke out to interrupt Han Li’s follow-up question.
”Oh! Can you say it for me to hear?” Han Li touched his nose, his expression slightly slowing down.
”There’s nothing to hide, there are quite a few people in Jiayuan City that are aware of the existence of Immortal Cultivators.” Yan said with a bitter smile after opening his eyes.
”There are even some people who have witnessed the fights of Immortal Cultivators outside of the city, and they have heard that they can call the wind and rain, make fire and spray, and that they are all like living gods.” Yan said this and also gave Han Li a strange look.
”So that’s how it is!” Han Li slapped the back of his head, he had actually forgotten that Jiayuan City wasn’t a small place like Caixia Mountain, and it didn’t seem to be an uncommon thing for an Immortal Cultivator to have shown his face here, hadn’t he just seen a blue-clothed man yesterday!
”Then does Master Mo also know about the existence of Immortal Cultivators?” Han Li suddenly thought of something and couldn’t help but open his mouth to ask.
”Of course I know, my husband is also one of those who have seen Immortal Cultivators fight with their own eyes.” Feeling that there was nothing to hide, Yan casually replied.
”I said why Doctor Mo is so obsessed with Immortal Cultivation, so it turns out that he has seen real Immortal Cultivators a long time ago! It’s a pity that he doesn’t have a spiritual root, and after wasting so much effort, he still cheapened himself.” Han Li couldn’t help but sigh.
However, Han Li suddenly felt something strange, why was Yan so obedient at this moment? Whatever she asked herself, she answered honestly, without any temper at all. To say that just because he was an Immortal Cultivator, the other party would completely submit, Han Li would not believe it.
Han Li carefully observed Yan’s expression, finally realizing that underneath the other party’s seemingly peaceful expression, there was a vague look of anxiety.
”Could it be that the other party is stalling for time?” Han Li frowned and released his spiritual sense, but there was no sign of outsiders intruding near the small building.
With a twinkle in his eye, Han Li suddenly stood up and walked around the house, and surveyed the surroundings as he did so.
There didn’t seem to be anything suspicious, the things inside the house were simple, except for the table which was a chair, they were all the same as yesterday’s things, except for an extra pair of white candles that had been lit for a small amount of time.
”Candles?” Han Li’s gaze fell on it, at first Han Li thought that the other party was just sacrificing the lower Mo Dafu by lighting wax in the daytime, so he didn’t care. But now that he thought about it, since the other party was going to pay tribute to her husband, how come there wasn’t even a single candle, this could be somewhat abnormal.
Thinking of this, Han Li used his nose to sniff with all his heart, and finally caught a flavor similar to sandalwood in the air. The scent was so light that it would have been impossible to be detected if one hadn’t paid attention to it intentionally.
Yan and the others were a bit unnatural when they saw Han Li looking at the candles, and when Han Li made the move of sniffing the air, his face changed even more drastically. At this moment, however, Han Li laughed, and laughed very merrily.
”What’s so funny? Even if you discovered the mechanism on the candle, you’re too late now. This is the Ecstasy Thousand People Drunk, ordinary people who smell it will have their bones loosened and their muscles softened and their limbs weakened, people who learn martial arts will also have to lose their true qi and lose their martial arts temporarily, even if you are an Immortal Cultivator, it’s impossible to stay in this house for a long time without anything happening to you.” Yan was a bit sullen and spoke out to test the waters.
”It’s nothing, I just feel that my luck is not bad!” Han Li smiled.
”When I was in the Seven Mysteries Sect, I had often heard people talk about the Ghost Sect Dao in the jianghu, and among them, the poisons and incense had the deepest impression on me. Because not only had I suffered from them, but they were impossible to prevent, even ordinary people could use them to easily kill great masters, for this reason I racked my brain and finally came up with a stupid method that could prevent ecstasy and poison.” Han Li said with some self-satisfaction.
And Yan and the others looked at each other in disbelief, there was such a method? How was this possible, but it was also true that the other party hadn’t collapsed until now. Now their faces were all white.
”As for what method ……,” Han Li couldn’t help but heave a smile when he saw that the women all couldn’t help but listen to what he was saying with their ears perked up, “I’m not going to tell you guys! Because I don’t have the habit of exposing secrets to my enemies!” Han Li’s expression was serious.
