Chapter 352 – Promise

　　Han Li didn’t immediately agree or refuse, but instead frowned down with both brows tightly furrowed, seemingly considering the pros and cons of it.

　　In his heart, Han Li was not willing to agree to this matter.

　　Because array formation and weapon refining techniques were simply chicken ribs to the current him, and unless he succeeded in conjugating the dan, he simply didn’t have the time to study them. Moreover, he was also unwilling to provoke a powerful Immortal Cultivation Clan for nothing, not to mention not having the ability to do so either.

　　”I know that this request is excessive for Senior Han, but Ruyin really has no other way.” Xin Ruyin smiled ruefully, her face turning pale.

　　”The reason why big brother Qi died at the hands of the Fu family was because of the incident caused by my concubine. If I don’t avenge my husband’s death in this life, Ruyin will not have the face to meet her in the nine springs even after she dies!” Xin Ruyin murmured in a low voice, her words filled with pleading intent.

　　When Han Li heard this woman say the word “death”, his eyebrows couldn’t help but raise, suddenly remembering something, he raised his head and stared at Xin Ruyin’s face, which caused Xin Ruyin to be stunned for a moment.

　　”Your qi is not right, let me take your pulse!” Han Li said something that greatly surprised Xin Ruyin, but his voice was filled with an undeniable tone.

　　A flash of color flashed in Xin Ruyin’s eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, she still obediently handed one of her jade wrists to Han Li.

　　Han Li nonchalantly placed two fingers on it before a trace of aura was injected into its body.

　　After a long time, Han Li’s complexion became somewhat ugly.

　　”Do you realize that all of your meridians have withered! At this rate, you’ll die within two years!” Han Li said coldly after drawing back his finger.

　　Hearing Han Li’s assertion, Xin Ruyin however smiled.

　　”Of course my concubine knows, isn’t my body clear to myself? My physique is the quality of the Dragon Yin, a male body wrongly born into a female body, and if I force myself to cultivate the truth, my lifespan meridians will gradually become misplaced and atrophied, and being able to live to this day is already a fluke of the heavens. At the beginning, I have exhausted the effort to find an ancient formula, thought I could cure this disease, but still failed, but a waste of Qi big brother for me to find a lot of spiritual medicine!” Xin Ruyin’s face revealed some self-deprecating colors!

　　”Miss!” The maid behind Xin Ruyin couldn’t help but cry out in sadness.

　　”It’s fine, Xiao Mei! Being able to meet up with Big Brother Qi down there earlier, I’m still begging for it!” Instead, Xin Ruyin looked as normal as ever as she comforted the maid behind her.

　　Seeing this scene, Han Li’s face softened, and for some reason, his heart actually felt some pity for him. But unfortunately for Xin Ruyin’s strange disease, he was similarly helpless and could only watch it fade away in the future.

　　”Since senior Han knows about this matter, he should also understand why Ruyin is doing this. Although senior is only a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage now, he is the only person that Big Brother Qi and I know who could possibly help us avenge this. I don’t need any oaths from senior, just a promise so that I can walk away with peace of mind.” Xin Ruyin’s expression returned to normal, and she reintroduced the matter of revenge as if nothing had happened.

　　Han Li rubbed his nose vigorously with one hand, greatly embarrassed, but after gazing and thinking, he suddenly asked, “Daoist Qi is also a member of an Immortal Cultivation family, right? Could it be that the Qi family won’t help to avenge his death?”

　　”Qi family? Hmph, they’re just an ordinary family in Yuanwu Country, how would they dare offend the Fu Family? Moreover, Big Brother Qi is still an external disciple that the Qi Family has expelled from the gateway, so they would care even less about this matter! As for my entire body of learning, it all came from an unnamed formation master amongst the casual cultivators, but this strange man also passed away a long time ago.” Xin Ruyin seemed to understand the meaning of Han Li’s words, and softly gave a slight account of Qi Yunxiao’s and her own origins.

　　Hearing this, Han Li was silently speechless in his heart, it seemed that he was really the only option for this woman!

　　”Alright, I can give Miss Xin a promise! But I’ll only step in when I have enough ability. This is an opportunity that may not be available for a lifetime, so you don’t regret it?” After thinking for half a day, Han Li took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

　　”That’s enough! As long as I can be given a hope, it’s fine. Concubine thanks Senior Han first!” Xin Ruyin couldn’t help but smile as she heard Han Li agree, and all of a sudden, her entire person appeared dainty and colorful.

　　Han Li was stunned by the other party’s voluptuous appearance, but then shook his head and nonchalantly flicked his robe sleeve toward the table, and the two boxes immediately disappeared without a trace, being stowed away in his storage pouch.

　　”Since it will take a month to recover the teleportation array, I’ll come back to disturb Miss Xin in a month. For now, I’ll take my leave!” Han Li got up and spoke without panic. He really had some things to take care of while there was a gap in time.

　　”Concubine respectfully sends off senior!” Xin Ruyin said respectfully without much retention.

　　Thus, Han Li took Qu Soul and flew out from the hill with his imperial weapon, this time speeding towards the Heavenly Star Sect’s workshop.

　　A day later, Han Li appeared in the vicinity of the workshop market, and casually found a cloak from his storage pouch, covering his face, before bringing Qu Soul to strut into the workshop market.

　　Walking on the streets of the market, Han Li looked at the many cultivators coming and going, his heart surprised.

　　The number of cultivators who came to buy and sell in the market, at the very least, was several times more than what he had seen the last time he came here, and everyone looked like they were in a hurry, and there were quite a few rare Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators in the market.

　　Han Li in his heart after thinking back and forth, his eyes flashed through a thoughtful look, and then put this matter behind him, the person went straight to the store that helped him refine magic weapon last time. He had some materials on him to be refined into a suitable magic weapon, so as to increase some of his own strength.

　　The store that made the artifacts was still in the same place, and even the signboard, which was not small in tone, was generally erected there.

　　Han Li pushed the door with a slight smile and walked in.

　　The situation inside the store after entering made Han Li frown lightly.

　　Inside the small store, there were as many as five or six people standing or sitting, and these people couldn’t help but look at him once they saw Han Li come in.

　　Seeing this, Han Li nonchalantly coldly swept his eyes, and those who sensed Han Li’s Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation immediately lowered their heads. These people are all Qi Refining Stage cultivators, and naturally don’t dare offend Han Li’s “senior”.

　　However, a vicious-looking man sitting on the chair looked directly at Han Li without fear. He was also a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, and although he was only at the early stage, he was unwilling to weaken his own face.

　　Han Li ignored these people and instead walked over to the shopkeeper who was talking to two of them, the burly man named “Big Black”.

　　”Is Shopkeeper Xu here?” Han Li calmly asked.

　　”Senior is ……” The burly man revealed a look of skepticism.

　　Sighing lightly, Han Li took out the pair of Oolong Snatchers and shook them in front of his eyes. When refining this pair of magic weapons, this person could have also played a hand in the side, and it was impossible not to recognize this item.

　　”So it’s senior ah, I’ll call my family master out.” The burly man’s eyes lit up, and he really recognized the Oolong Raider, and immediately said with a smile on his face, before excusing himself and hurriedly heading towards the backyard.

　　Seeing that Han Li was an acquaintance of the store’s owner, the rest of the people couldn’t help but look at each other in shock for a few moments, but no one dared to go up and disturb Han Li unintentionally.

　　Not long after, the white-haired Shopkeeper Xu welcomed him out from the back with a smile on his face. Last time, Han Li had left him a lot of rare materials! Naturally, Han Li was greatly welcomed by this old man.

　　”Senior has come to this store again, this is truly an honor for little old me! Is senior still planning to refine weapons?” Old man Xu asked with some impatience after exchanging slight pleasantries, his face full of anticipation.

　　Han Li smiled faintly and deliberately looked around at the other cultivators.

　　This Xu shopkeeper immediately understood Han Li’s intentions, and immediately even called “confused” to invite Han Li to the backyard to talk, and was excited to take the lead in lifting his leg to go.

　　Seeing this, others didn’t dare to say anything, but the vicious man snorted coldly in dissatisfaction. He was also looking for this store to refine weapons, but as the same Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, how could he treat Han Li and him so differently, which made him greatly annoyed.

　　Hearing the cold snort of the big man, Han Li glanced at this person with an icy gaze.

　　Knowing that the number of cultivators who had died in Han Li’s hands could be quite a lot, he had unconsciously taken on a killing aura that ordinary cultivators didn’t have. This glance, immediately let the big man as if falling into an ice cave, body cold, face can not help but show fear.

　　Seeing the big man’s face had changed. Han Li no longer cared about this person, but brought Qu Soul into the store’s backyard.

　　At this moment, Big Black, on the other hand, was very resourceful in coming forward to make amends to a few other people, and found an excuse to casually explain a bit to appease the other guests.

　　”Senior, did you bring your own materials again?” As soon as he saw Han Li and Qu Soul walk into the backyard, Shopkeeper Xu glanced at Qu Soul with a slight sense of surprise, and then anxiously inquired to Han Li.
