Chapter 124 Fengwu.

Chapter 124: Fengwu

My sisters do not need to take the poison! Is my life not enough as collateral? Lady Yan, who previously swallowed the pill, prevented Second Wife Li from taking the poison.

When Han Li heard Lady Yans words, he was slightly stunned, exposing an appearance of surprise.

After he immediately muttered to himself, he slightly nodded his head and said, Since Fourth Martial Mother feels so deeply for her sisters, I, Han Li, will not be an unreasonable person! Fine, Second Martial Mother and the rest do not need to take the poison.

After Han Li said this, he took the bottle from Lady Yans hands and stored it in his bosom.

Since this affair has been concluded, I will first take my leave. Tomorrow at this time, I will come back to the Mo Estate for the portrait and other necessary items, then I will directly head to the Hegemons Villa.

Thank you for your troubles, Young Master! Lady Yan and the others stood up to send him off.

Han Li faintly smiled, turned his body as easily as wind, and left the room.

Just as Han Li had left the small building, there were the sounds of many hurried footsteps from behind him.

Senior Apprentice Brother Han, wait a moment. My second sister has come to find you for a certain matter! Han Li heard the shouting voice of that young girl, Mo Caihuan, and sighed. He helpless turned his body.

He saw that little demoness take the lead at the front, followed by Mo Fengwu and Mo Yuzhu. They were all walking straight toward him.

Mo Caihuan overtook Han Li by a few steps. Then she widely opened her eyes, walked around him in a circle, and smacked her lips incessantly as if she were looking at a rare object!

Alright! Senior Apprentice Brother Han, I was already quite bitter from being cheated! However, I didnt expect that you were also a faker! You actually went as far as to use a some small thing to trick me into moving around in circles.

When Han Li heard this, he rolled his eyes at this girl. What small thing? This girl clearly wants a better gift, and thus, he must leave at once!

Third sister, dont be rude. Stop making trouble for Young Master Han.

This was the first time Han Li heard Mo Fengwus voice. It was completely gentle and soft, like velvet, and could give a person a sense of comfort.

What! Am I not taking revenge on behalf of our mothers? Who let this guy act so lofty in front of my mother!? Mo Caihuan angrily asked.

Sure enough, the words Han Li heard fit his expectations. This girl had came here purely to vex him. In that case, he no longer paid notice of the little demoness and turned his head to Mo Fengwu , Second junior apprentice sister, is something on your mind that compelled you to find me?

Having Han Li speak to her caused her to complexion to slightly red. However, she continued, softly saying, Fengwu came to find Young Master to simply know whether Third Sisters Winding Fragrance Pills were truly gifted by Young master. Has my fathers medical expertise been completely passed down to Young Master?

When Han Li had first seen Mo Fengwu, he had quite a favorable impression of her. Now that he had seen this shy jade person speak so tenderly, his mind could not help but feel a large amount of sympathy toward her.

As a result, he politely said, In response to second junior apprentice sisters question, Han Li will naturally say all he knows. Junior apprentice sister Caihuans Winding Fragrance Pills were truly gifted by me. I have also indeed learned many medicinal recipes and obtained great medical expertise. This Winding Fragrance Pill was such a recipe….Could it be that junior apprentice sister Fengwu is greatly interested in this?

Ever since Han Li had seen the medicinal herbs growing in the back garden, he knew for certain that there was someone here learning Doctor Mos medical expertise. Now that he saw Mo Fenwu ask this, his mind knew that it was most likely to be the jade person before him.

As expected, after Han Li said these words, this young woman, who originally seemed extremely gentle and quiet, displayed a cheerful expression from her eyes as she said, I wont conceal this from Young Master. Ever since Fengwu was a child, she was greatly interested in Fathers medical skills and meticulously studied many of Fathers medical books and experiences. Unfortunately, when Father departed the Mo Estate, Feng Wus age was still young, and thus, what she had acquired was quite limited.

After she finished speaking, Mo Fengwu was somewhat hesitant, but still she continued, Therefore, Fengwu has a request which she hopes Young Master will be able to complete….Is it possible for your distinguished self to give a copy of fathers medical skills and insight to Fengwu to let her learn a few things and deepen her own medical expertise? feewebnove.co

After she said these words, this second junior apprentice sister from the Mo Estate blushed. It was clear that to boldly request this of him was quite embarrassing for her.

After Han Li finished hearing the jade persons request, he didnt think of it in the least and immediately agreed.

No problem. Tomorrow, when I come to the Mo Estate, I will give the few of Doctor Mos remaining manuscripts and prescriptions to second junior apprentice sister. Naturally, these already belonged to the Mo Estate. I had originally planned to hand them over to Fourth Martial Mother, but since second junior apprentice sister wants them, giving them to second junior apprentice sister would be the same. Han Li said with a smile.

A great many thanks, Young Master! Fengwu cant help but be grateful! Mo Fengwus face showed an appreciation for his decision.

Second sister, why in the world are you thanking him? Did you not hear him say that those objects originally belonged to us? He should be giving them to you of his own volition. The nearby Mo Caihuan blinked several times before interrupting.

After Han Li heard the words of the young girl, he shot her a glance and thought, If it wasnt your second sister, such a gentle and pleasant beauty, requesting this of me, would I still return these items, which fell into my possession, to the Mo Estate? I wouldnt even think of it!

Third Sister, dont speak drivel. Young Master Han will bring us Fathers remnants without the slightest hesitation. This sufficiently shows Young Masters intentions.

Seeing something amiss between Han Li and Mo Caihuan, Mo Fengwu hastily chided the young girl and then pulled her away. After she gracefully bowed to Han Li, she took her leave.

From the beginning to end, the Mo Estates eldest daughter, Mo Yuzhu, hadnt said a word. After she saw her two sisters depart, she took a deep look at Han Li and left.

The Mo Estates eldest daughter, what meaning did her glance hold? Does she appreciate me, loathe me, or even both? Han Li threw Mo Yuzhu a departing glance, somewhat at a loss.

However, Han Li shrugged his shoulders and thought of it no longer. He then left the Mo Estate.

By the time Han Li returned to the inn, the newly appointed Fourth Level Gangs Gang Leader Sun Ergou and one other person had already been waiting for a while outside his room. Naturally, Crooked Soul was there as well.

After Han Li saw Sun Ergou, he nodded his head and pushed open the rooms door. Sun Ergou and the other person immediately followed him inside. Then each person had a man respectfully standing on either side of them to attend to their needs.

After Han Li sat down, he sized up the stranger that came in with Sun Ergou. He was a robust man of perhaps thirty years and had a frightening face as well as a fearsome appearance.

Seeing your bright red face, you mustve already acquired the seat as the Gang Leader of the Fourth Level Gang! Han Li faintly said to Sun Ergou.

Take a seat! Take a seat! It was because of this Young Masters backing that this servant is where he is today! Sun Erhou hastily replied, beaming with joy.

So long as you know! I will not meddle with the Fourth Level Gangs affairs, but you must use the Fourth Level Gangs power in accordance to my instructions. Otherwise, I wouldnt mind switching in a different Gang Leader. Han Li coldly warned.

These words made Sun Ergou, originally lost in joy, immediately shiver, greatly clearing his clouded mind.

I will follow Young Masters instructions at any cost. Even if it costs me my life, I will do it! Sun Ergou assumed a loyal appearance in a rush.

Han Li faintly let out an En, no longer taking notice of Sun Ergou and instead turning his gaze to the other man.

You were the one that heard the Immortals conversation? Han Li asked, rather interested.

Thats right. This servant Xi Tieniu had truly heard this! The robust man respectfully replied.

Though this person might be strong and tall, he was not at all stupid. He clearly understood that this unremarkable youth before him had elevated Sun Ergou, who was originally of the same status of himself, to the Gang Leaders position. Thus, he didnt dare be negligent.

Han Li was very satisfied. So long as this man was clever, this affair would be handled smoothly.

Tell me about the day when you saw the Immortal couple, from start to finish. If I am satisfied, Ill have you be Sun Ergous assistant and turn you into the Fourth Level Gangs Vice Gang Leader. Han Li knew that only with the attachment of rewards would others work with enthusiasm. As a result, he made such an unrestrained promise.

As expected, when Xi Tieniu heard what was said, he was delighted. He excitedly slapped his chest immediately, expressing that he would surely satisfy Han Li.

When Sun Ergou heard these words, he was somewhat unwilling. However, he didnt dare to show the slightest bit of disagreement on his face.

As a result, after Xi Tieniu calmed down a bit, he narrated the day he came across the Immortals once through and in great detail.

Xi Tienius account and the finer details spoken by Sun Ergou were much different, but the overall course of events were almost entirely the same.

This Immortal couple, did they mention any time or place? After Han Li finished hearing Tienius statement, he asked of the matter that he was most concerned about.

Chapter 123: Business Deal

Topic? What topic? I came here asking for your final decision! Do you want to depart from here and live in secrecy? Or would you rather have me dispose of one of your great adversaries? After Han Li withdrew his gaze from the yellow jacketed beauty, he straightened his face and said this, not polite in the least.

After Lady Yan heard Han Lis words, she wrinkled her brow and slowly said this to Han Li, Young Master Han, dont be in such a hurry! After we sisters thoroughly thought this through yesterday, we had decided to choose the second option. However, we wish to change the terms a bit.

I already emphasized that I do not wish to haggle with the several madams over the terms. This matter cannot be changed. Agree to my conditions and choose! Han Li said, suddenly showing displeasure.

Young Master, what do you think about my daughters looks? Lady Yan did not take notice of Han Lis displeasure and unexpectedly turned the conversation toward the three Mo sisters.

National grace with the scent of divinity. To praise the innate beauty of these women with these words would not be excessive! Han Li was surprised but immediately replied with a light smile. He somewhat vaguely understood Lady Yans plan.

Our request is well within reason. So long as your distinguished self can eliminate the heads of the Rainbow Sect and the Hegemons Villa, not only will we give you the Precious Warm Yang Jade for detoxification, but you can also take all three sisters as your wives and concubines. Were you not looking at Fengwu just a moment ago? So long as you agree, she could be of your Han clan! Lady Yan earnestly said, pointing behind her to Mo Yuzhu and the their daughters.

Fourth Mother!

Mother!

Mo Yuzhu and Mo Caihuans expressions greatly changed, and they could not help but cry out. It was clear that these two had not been informed of this and were frightened pale by Lady Yans rash promise.

Apart from Lady Yans complexion turning slightly pale, she had still kept her calm.

It was no surprise that they were so alarmed. Han Lis appearance was truly not astonishing at all, and he was a world of difference away from the twos image of their ideal husband. They didnt share a single common trait with him. How could they be willing to marry themselves to Han Li?

Stop talking! This is a matter that I and your mothers have already decided upon. If you do not comply, you will be expelled from the Mo Estate. Lady Yan said with a cold voice as she lowered her face.

Hearing these words being uttered, the three Mo sisters were all stunned.

Mo Yuzhu slightly bit her almond lips as her complexion ashened. The dazed Mo Caihuan gazed toward her Second Mother and Fifth Mother, both of whom usually loved her the most dearly, while begging with her eyes. Only Mo Fengwu was somewhat better, but her body had lightly trembled. She motionlessly leaned against the wall.

There is no need to threaten the young ladies! I cannot agree to your conditions. Its like how that old saying goes: no matter the circumstances, I will not brave pointless hazards. I quite cherish my little life! After a moment of silent, Han Li replied with a lowered voice, flatly rejecting Lady Yans proposal.

As for Han Li, to say that his heart was not move when facing the three beautiful Mo Sisters would be a completely false statement. However, Han Li had already carefully considered that if he were to kill the other two hegemons of the Lan Province, it would surely provoke the notice of someone observant and cause life-threatening disaster to descend upon him.

Just by thinking about it, after the Rainbow Sect and the Sole Hegemons Villas collapse, Lady Yan was certain to bring the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association to great power and become the greatest beneficiary.

In addition, with the abrupt appearance of a stranger in the Mo Estate suddenly taking Mos three tender beauties as his wives, it would undoubtedly imply that he was this matters greatest contributor as well as the killer!

If this were to provoke some mysterious force that watched over cultivators, then nothing good would happen to this dabbler in cultivation. It was more than likely that he would not be able to keep his little life. In that case, what use would there be for the exquisite, ravishing, dainty beauty of these three Mo Sisters?

As a result, Han Li inwardly gave himself a bitter smile and shoved the appearance and fragrance of the three great beauties to the side.

As for whether the Mo sisters were fond of him or not, Han Li could not care less. So long as he obtained these beautiful women, then acquiring their hearts was only a matter of time! However, to say this at this moment was already useless. If Han Lis previous words had scalded the hands of the three Mo sisters like a sweet potato, that absolutely didnt trouble him at all! He currently planned to dissolve the cold Yin poison from his body as soon as possible and then depart from this quarrelsome place. As for whether the Mo Estate would later acquire disaster or fortune, that had nothing to do with him.

Han Li spoke of his rejection. Although the faces of Lady Yan and the other wives werent good, the Mo sisters have grown a rather favorable impression of him. Even the youngest, Mo Caihuan, smiled through her fake tears that created a devils mask with which she disguised herself in front of Han Li.

In addition, even Mo Yuzhus and Mo Fengwus impression of Han Li had soften by considerably, causing them to view him in a new light.

Lady Yan sighed. The rest looked at each other with meaningful glances, and then turned their bodies. Helpless, Lady Yan said, Since Young Master Han hasnt changed his mind, then we will leave the matter alone! We will reach a deal according to Young Masters conditions. So long as Young Master Han can kill the Hegemons Villa Sovereign, Furious Lion Ouyang Feitian, we will hand over the Precious Warm Yang Jade that will let your distinguished self be detoxified.

Hehe! You women are quite good at scheming! I heard this Ouyang Feitian is at the prime of his life and has yet to have children. The Hegemons Villa will almost certainly collapse immediately after his death. Its subordinates would be in complete disarray, too busy to worry about the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association. Han Li stroked his nose, softly laughing.

When Lady Yan heard Han Lis words, she gave Han Li a cold glance.

It is not as you say. Do you know who it was that sent Wu Jianming here? It was by the order of this Sovereign Ouyang. In addition, Wu Jianming is Ouyang Feitians seventh disciple, and is extremely doted upon.

The Sovereign of Hegemons Villa was of the same generation as our Lord Husband and is of nearly the same age. From the beginning, he has been ambitiously wanting to proclaim himself Sovereign of the entire Lan Province, and thus he employed the tactics first weak then strong, striving to first consume the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association and then deal with the Rainbow Sect.

Several years ago, he instigated my Lord Husbands sword little brother Ma Kongtian and my Lord Husbands second disciple, Zhao Kun, to attempt to split the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association. In the end, it was seen through by us sisters, and we killed those two and their accomplices in advance. However, the Fearsome Flood Dragon Associations strength had been greatly damaged. We had to retreat step by step under the pressure from the Hegemons Villas advancing army. As a result, we had no choice but to pull back our men and entrench ourselves in Jia Yuan City.

Lady Yan softly spoke of a few of the Fearsome Flood Dragon Associations secrets.

However, your current influence in Jia Yuan City seems to not amount to much either. Couldnt the Hegemons Villa just exterminate you in a single vigorous attempt? Han Li thought for a moment and asked, slightly puzzled.

Heehee! Ouyang Feitian, that madman, doesnt dare to attack here. Naturally, he has his reasons. If you want to, so long as you agree to our sisters original conditions, I will tell Young Master. Third Wife Liu giggled, telling half-truths with her alluring voice.

Hehe! Lets forget about it then. I was just a bit curious! Han Li remained completely calm and collected.

Really! Not a single bit masculine, without even the slightest intention of bringing out a bit more force! Third Wife Liu said with her small mouth, as if teasing Han Li.

Lady Yan and the others turned a blind eye to the Third Wifes actions, however, the three Mo sisters faces had turned red. After all, their own elder had teased the man they were originally about to marry right in front of his face. Outrageous!

Mo Caihuan pouted and firmly glared at Han Li.

However, Han Li seemed to not notice this in the least, as if he were in his own world. Instead, he replied, Third Martial Mother speaks of this quite lightly. Since a bit of force could cost me my own life, Im fine with not being a masculine man! Im fine so long as I am a man!

Perhaps Han Lis last sentence was a bit too frank, because not only did it stun Third Wife Liu, who pursed the lips of her enchanting smile, it also annoyed Second Wife Li and Lady Yan.

Young Master, how do you plan to take Ouyang Feitians life? This person spends his days hiding deeply within the villa and rarely leaves. Not only is he at the pinnacle of martial arts, his shrewdness is outstanding. He is quite a difficult opponent to deal with. Lady Yan firmly said with a stiff complexion.

Lady Fourth shouldnt worry about that. You just have to prepare me a good horse and a portrait of this person. Then I will make him disappear from this world.

I hope so! Lady Yan softly spoke.

Back to the previous topic…shouldnt you give me a guarantee that when I return from my completed task, you women will not become hostile and refuse to acknowledge your debt!? Han Li intoned, soft as a feather.

What kind of guarantee does your distinguished self want? Lady Yan didnt show any discontent but rather seemed to have already anticipate this demand.

Inside this bottle, there is a medicine pill. I must ask everyone to take this poison, but I will not say what it is. In any case, wait for day I come back after killing Ouyang to exchange the antidote for the Precious Warm Yang Jade. Han Li felt around for a porcelain bottle before setting it on the table and coldly staring at Lady Yan and her family members.

Lady Yan did not say anything further and extended her fine lily-white hands to grab the bottle. She poured out a jade green pill and looked to Lady Li and the others before tilting her head up and swallowing it.

Good courage! Good decisiveness! You are truly worthy of leading the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association. Han Li could not help but give praise. His gaze then moved toward the rest of the women.

Chapter 122 Kill by Poison.

Chapter 122: Kill by Poison

Whats going on? Qian Jin asked, baffled by Shen Sans warning. Due to his continuous trust in Shen San, he unconsciously stopped himself from drinking the alcohol.

The one who originally served the food wasnt you but was someone else? Shen San did not pay notice of the fattys misgivings but instead kept his hand on the saber at his waist and slowly stood. He coldly asked the young servant with the wine.

Because there are too many guests, Li Er went to another room to run some errands. I am his replacement. Uncle, whats wrong? This young servant was looking attentively at Shen San. His complexion turned completely white after a moment as he replied, completely fearful.

Seeing this persons expression, Shen Sans expression had somewhat relaxed, however he still seemed ill at ease. He turned his head to the little Jin embraced by Shen Zhongshan and asked, Miss Jin, do you know this person? Is he truly a person from your Clear River Brothel?

This…? This amazing beauty showed an expression of embarrassment, but still somewhat awkwardly said, I wont conceal this from you, Grandpa Shen, This person does seem really unfamiliar, however, our Clear River Brothel contains over several hundred people. For this woman, having not seen someone before is not such a strange matter.

Haha! Little San, arent you bothering Miss Jin? How could such a delicately sweet beauty recognize everyone beneath her? Could it be you believe that this person infiltrated this establishment as an assassin? Shen Zhongshan unconcernedly asked as he lowered his head onto the attractive woman at his side and took a few strong whiffs.

Boss, we make our livings on the blades edge. It would be to our utmost advantage to be careful! Shen San face was expressionless and he sent a rigid look at the youth delivering the plate. fгeeebove.cm

Hehe! This persons footsteps are careless, and his eyes have no spirit. With a single look, you can tell he is no martial artist. If you still dont feel at ease, I still have a method that will identify his authenticity. The Malicious Scholar Fan Ju coldly laughed several times and darkly stated.

Ever since he entered the Fourth Level Gang, he had long been dissatisfied with the trust Shen Zhongshan placed in Shen San as well as the claim that Shen San deserved the title of the Fourth Level Gangs brains. He decided to disgrace Shen San rather nicely.

Oh, what kind of method? My old pal Fan, dont hesitate to test it out. Although Shen Zhongshan had said this with a very heroic appearance, he actually cherished his small life rather greatly. As a result, he immediately withdrew his previous remark and approved Fan Jus examination.

Since this person doesnt know martial arts, if he truly wanted to harm us, he would have simply tampered with our food and drink. So lets have him try it out and have the truth come to light! The Malicious Scholar said with a card up his sleeve.

Brother Fan, good plan! Boy, first drink some of this wine for uncle and eat some of the food too. If you have the slightest hesitation, uncle will immediately wring your head. The dark fatty Qian Jin applauded happily and then loudly berated the young servant.

When the black-clothed man, Shen San, heard Fan Jus words, he truly felt that this method was truly not bad and did not speak any words of opposition. He coldly looked on as a bystander.

As for that Shen Zhongshan and little Jinzhi in his bosom, they also had no complaints.

Consequently, the young servant that delivered the wine and food, with a sullen face, drank a cup of wine and ate a few mouthfuls of food.

Seeing this person come out unscathed after eating the food and drinking the wine, Fan Ju complacently smiled and said to Shen San with great emphasis, It seems my boy, Shen, was overly cautious. This person is truly just a servant. Next time, by all means, dont sweep everyones wine again. With this said, he threw several spoons of food into his mouth and slowly chewed.

Humph! Shen San snorted, not at all paying attention to Fan Jus oblique accusation but instead sat back down with a relaxed body.

Haha! Its not important! It was just a misunderstanding. Shen Zhongshan naturally knew that his two subordinates did not get along well. However, this was what he had wanted to see. As a result, he feigned an outspoken laughing smile.

Since this was a misunderstanding, this young servant can leave now. This silver can be regarded as a gift to you! Shen Zhongshan felt around for two taels worth of silver and tossed it towards the young servant.

Thank you, uncle. Since I have no other business here, this servant will ask to be excused! The youth, dressed as a young servant, saw the silver with delight and withdrew in high spirits, closing the rooms door as he left.

Aiya! Uncle Shen is truly generous. In the future you cant be stingy toward Jinzhi either! Little Jinzhis sweet, coquettish voice spread throughout the room.

Of course, beautiful. You are uncles dearest treasure! So long as you serve this uncle well, he definitely wont treat you unfairly! Come brothers! Let us all drink a cup! We wont be returning sober! Shen Zhongshans broken, harsh voice spread outside the room, where the youth could hear everything clearly.

The youth outside the room suddenly sneered. He did not immediately leave but rather secretly eavesdropped in the vicinity, standing there like a ghost. He was motionless, as if he were waiting for something.

After the time it took to make a cup of tea, frightened yelling abruptly came from within the room, Poison! The food and drinks are laced with poisoned! Ive been poisoned! Just after he said this, the man strangely laughed two times before his breath halted. It appeared that this voice belonged to the dark fatty, Qian Jing.

Slut! You actually conspired to murder the gang leader! I want your life! Shen Zhongshan roared with starling anger. However it appeared to be too late, and after involuntarily letting out two hollow laughs, he actually fell to the ground, dead.

Poison Expert Fan Ji and Shen San fearfully looked at each other and spoke in unison, That young servant poisoned us!

That young servant must surely have the antidote!

The two men immediately pushed the women in their embrace away and dashed out the door as if their buttocks were on fire.

Unfortunately, just as they left the door, they let out a Haha before slowly falling to the ground.

It seems that the dark fatty drank the most and therefore was the first to have the toxin take effect! That Shen Zhongshan must have also drank quite a bit and was the second. As for the black clothed person and the scholar, although they did not drink much, the toxicity of my Laughing Soul Powder is fierce. So long as a single drop is consumed, death will be certain, without a doubt. The youth leisurely thought. Afterwards, he waited for a moment before opening the door and entering the room.

Taking a single look within the room, he saw that not a single life had remained. Even little Jinzhi and the other three women drank a cup and had long since taken their dying breath.

After Han Li looked once through and confirmed for certain that that none were still alive, did he swiftly leave the doom.

Once the news that Shen Zhongshan succumbed to poison spreads, people will surely believe that he was killed by his enemies of Jiang Hu. It shouldnt provoke any greatly troublesome people. Han Li thought as he relaxed himself on the way back.

This Pure Spirit Powder is truly effective. So long as I take a dose in advance, not only can I protect myself against all kinds of poisons, but I can also protect myself against bewitching scents and other odd drugs. Last time, I used it against Lady Yan and the other wives, much to my amusement. He smiled somewhat oddly and could not help but grope the inside of his bosom.

On the way back to the inn, Han Li saw no one noteworthy. He then entered his room and lied down on his bed, soundly sleeping.

This was a habit Han Li unintentionally acquired. So long as he finished some great matter, he was particularly fond of lying down and falling fast asleep, properly loosening the exhaustion of his body and mind.

As Han Li slept soundly, the deaths of Shen Zhongshan and his three great Protectors had been discovered by the Clear River Brothel. As a result, when the news spread throughout the Fourth Level Gang, there was much uproar caused by many ambitious people.

No one had thought to investigate Shen Zhongshans death, because in Jia Yuan City, the strong preying on the weak was the law of the land. Shen Zhongshan had also climbed to his position after murdering the previous Fourth Level Gangs leader. Consequently, the remaining leaders of the Fourth Level Gang only cared about who was going to fill the vacancy left by the previous gang leaders death.

As a result, incompetent candidates and those who remained unconvinced all competed in a fiery melee for the position of Gang Leader. Eventually for the Fourth Level Gang, this broke out during the same evening.

The morning of the next day, the outcome was shockingly discovered by common gang members of the lowest gangs, those who had never taken part in the melee, in the entire Fourth Level Gang, the one left standing was unexpectedly Sun Ergou, who could barely lift his eyes from exhaustion.

Last night, this Sun Ergou had actually killed the rest of his senior opposition. Once no one dared to stand in opposition against him, he smoothly ascended to the position of Fourth Level Gangs Gang Leader. Furthermore, the other gangs in the western city district were given notice, confirming his succession.

After Han Li, the one that plotted this behind the scenes, rose from a comfortable sleep, he showed up in the Mo Estate at the small and rather unique building. He was facing the still-standing Lady Yan and several other beautiful women. However, behind them were the three great beauties of Jia Yuan CityTeacher Mos three tender daughters.

Han Li had seen Mo Yuzhu and Mo Caihuan before, and thus his gaze was mostly focused on Doctor Mos adopted daughter, Mo Fengwu.

Wearing a yellow jacket, Mo Fengwu had a face shaped like a goose egg. It seemed she was sixteen to seventeen years of age, and her entirety was filled with an extraordinary gracefulness, giving Han Li the impression of a dainty spirit.

At this time, because Han Li was attentively watching Mo Fengwu, she had somewhat shyly lowered her head, revealing an exquisitely slender, snow-white neck. Upon seeing this, Han Li could not help but secretly swallow his saliva several times.

Young Master Han, refrain from looking at my clans Fengwu with such a lustful gaze! Our Fengwus face is quite thin! Are we not going continue yesterdays topic? After the Third Wife smiled bewitchingly, she said these words to Han Li with her charming voice.

Chapter 121 Clear River Brothel.

Chapter 121: Clear River Brothel

Shen Zhongshans current mood was quite good. He was currently sitting in a private room of the Clear River Brothel and embracing an exceptionally beautiful girl, using his large hands to grope her delicate body in a vulgar manner.

Maybe it was due to Shen Zhongshans impatience, but his handling caused the gorgeously enchanting maiden to giggle nonstop.

Miss Jin, I think you should just submit to our Gang Leader already! This is the first time our Gang Leader has been so infatuated with a woman. He came here in such a hurry even though the gangs affairs have not been completely dealt with. The person who said this was a dark fatty who wore loose-fitting gray garments. His waist was as large as a bucket, and his legs were twice the size a normal persons. After speaking, he was somewhat gasping for breath.

Thats right, Miss Jinzhi! Our Gang Leader has visited your establishment every afternoon for five days in a row and spent a large sum of money! Furthermore, you profited quite a bit. You only let our Gang Leader embrace you for a while and never let him spend the night with you even once. This just doesnt make any sense! The one who spoke this time was a middle aged scholar with a mole on his face. His eyes exuded a hidden fierceness, making him seem like a scheming person.

Currently, besides Shen Zhongshan, there were three other people in the room. They were none other than Fourth Level Gangs three Great Protectors.

The dark fatty was Mad Fist Qian Jing. Disregarding his oddly plump size, he was actually extremely proficient in the Berserk Eighteen Strike and had killed many reputable experts.

The Confusian scholar was Malicious Scholar Fan Ju. Even though he practiced a very swift and fierce Snow Wind sword technique, what made his name famous worldwide was his dark heart, fierce methods, and sinister intentions.

Standing at one side was a dark-clothed person who had not spoken a word since the start. He was the strongest out of the three Great Protectors, Throwing Dagger Shen San. His unique skill of sending out eighteen throwing daggers in succession had previously helped Shen Zhongshan get rid of many experts who pursued a vendetta against him. In addition, Shen San was also Shen Zhongshans distant relative. Thus, he was the one Shen Zhongshan regarded the most highly in the Fourth Level Gang.

Just like Shen Zhongshan, each of the three Protectors had a pretty girl sitting in their embrace. But these girls were nothing like the girl in Shen Zhongshans embrace. She was delicate, charming, flirtatious and finely developed in figure.

At this moment, when the giggling little Jinzhi heard Mad Fist and Malicious Scholar Fan Jus words, her eyes immediately began to tear up, as if a teardrop might fall at any moment.

When Master Fan and Master Qian speak like this, you are wrongly accusing Jinzhi. The moment others see Master Shen, they would immediately know that he is a hero! To be able to fly together and nest together with Master Shen, that is all that Jinzhi wishes for!

However, both of you also know that my body belongs to Clear River Brothel. Without the brothels Elderly Lady Wangs approval, if Jinzhi were to leave and receive patrons without permission, I will be beaten to death. Why doesnt Master Shen go and ask Elderly Lady Wang? If she agrees to let Jinzhi receive patrons, then I will definitely wait upon Master Shen diligently tonight. The lead prostitute of the Clear River Brothel spoke in a sincere tone of sweet reasonableness and looked at Shen Zhongshan with extreme adoration.

Her words seemed quite believable yet fake at the same time, making Qian Jin and Fan Ju look at each other speechlessly in dismay.

Of course they had asked for the price of spending the night with little Jinzhi. Using the excuse of little Jinzhi having never spent the night with a patron before, Elderly Lady Wang demanded an exorbitant price that made Gang Leader Shen Zhongshans heart skip a beat. Thus, they had never reached an agreement.

It was even more impossible to use force to negotiate. The Clear River Brothel was the property of Jia Yuan Citys third largest gang, the Heavenly Tyrant Sect.

After hitting a snag with this giant red card, Qian Jin and Fan Ju could only vent their frustration on the Clear River Brothels girls who were in their arms. Only after groping them ferociously did they let the matter drop.

Hehe, many thanks to the two worthy little brothers for being concern about my affairs. But dont worry, two days ago I made a great business deal. This small amount of money isnt too much. On the contrary, you, beautiful lady, cannot go back on your words! You must properly wait upon this Lord Master when the time comes! The lustful Shen Zhongshan said contentedly as he suddenly turned towards little Jinzhi, who was in his embrace, and nibbled her fragrant cheek.

Shen Zhongshan was a huge man with very hairy arms and chest. His two arms were much longer than that of an average human. Thus, his whole person looked like a beast wearing clothes, truly so ugly that he could frighten people.

A few years ago, this extremely boorish man used Open Arm Punch, a skill that he mastered to perfection, to kill the Fourth Level Gangs predecessor, Gou Tianpo, and his trusted aides, the four great Warlords, thereby seizing the position as Gang Leader. Therefore, in the entire Jia Yuan City, he was definitely a part of the top ranking experts and must not be underestimated.

Master Shen, Little Jinzhi appeared very bashful when Shen Zhongshan sneakily bit her cheek and behaved like a spoiled child in his arms, making Shen Zhongshan quite pleased with himself as he laughed heartily.

Dong dong! Dong dong! Right in that moment, someone knocked on the door.

Who is it? The dark fatty, Mad Fist Qian Jin was unhappy and shouted out the question in a bad mood.

I am here to deliver beverages to the gentlemen in the room. The voice of a youthful male came through from the outside.

Then why are you taking so slow to deliver? Ive already complained that there are not enough drinks! The dark fatty spoke without thinking when he heard the reply.

In the wake of Qian Jins words, a young man wearing servant clothes came in. The ordinary-looking youth was holding a tray with both hands. There were several dishes and two bottles of alcohol on the tray. freeebnovel.com

Quickly bring the alcohol here. I want to see how it tastes like! Fatty Qian Jin was a typical drunkard. Thus his eyes immediately brightened up and he clamoured incessantly when he saw the two bottles of alcohol.

Yes, this servant will carry it to you! This person, with an appearance of a young servant, walked forward a few steps and placed a wine cup on the table.

The moment the fatty saw the wine cup, he immediately grabbed it in his hand and wanted to down it to taste its flavour.

Wait, fatty! The quiet black-clothed person, Shen San, suddenly stopped Qian Jin from pouring the alcohol into his mouth.

Chapter 120: Scheming to Seize a Gang

He did not mention the time, but from the way he spoke, it appears that its going to be not too long from now. As for the meeting place, it seems like it was not mentioned. Sun Ergou said as he scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed.

Han Li frowned. Apparently, the information that Sun Ergou possessed was not one hundred percent accurate. There were definitely some aspects that were overlooked.

Han Li bowed his head and pondered for a while. Suddenly, he had an epiphany and thought of a brilliant idea.

He cautiously gave Sun Ergou a once-over, then abruptly smiled and said, Sun Ergou, Im very pleased with the way you handle affairs recently, especially the major contribution youve made with the latest information. As a result, I am prepared to reward you heavily!

When Sun Ergou heard this, he was so elated that his face brightened up subconsciously.

Sun Ergou never would have thought that a few pieces of information would merit the appreciation of this esteemed Young Master and lead to a reward. It seemed that handling affairs for this person was truly refreshing. Although he didnt know why Han Li would reward him so handsomely, Han Li wouldnt give him a large amount of gold and silver treasure, would he?

Sun Ergou couldnt help but let his imagination run wild.

Do you have any interest in becoming the Commander of the Fourth Level Gang? Han Lis question was so earth-shattering that Sun Ergous surprised face changed so drastically, and he nearly jumped out of his skin.

Young Master must be joking and teasing this servant! This servant has little ability and character, how could I qualify to be a Commander?! Sun Ergou muttered sullenly.

Why not? With me supporting you from behind, even a small group like Fourth Level Gang would be easy to obtain! Or are you willing to just be a minor gang leader and take care of the harbor for the rest of your life? Han Li said cajolingly as he laughed softly.

When Sun Ergou heard this, many expressions crossed his face. There was surprise, fear and mostly excitement.

As a man, who would not imagine himself being surrounded by beauties one day? Having all the authority in his hands and being able to control someones life or death…what a marvelous idea!

Buried at the bottom of his heart, Sun Ergous innermost ambition was lightly ignited by Han Lis few words. But Sun Ergou still had a few qualms and thus did not immediately agree with Han Li.

The martial arts of our Commander and the three great Protectors is certainly not weak. Can Young Master be certain that he can subdue them? Sun Ergou asked tentatively in a low voice.

Subdue them? Haha, whats the use of that? Just kill them all! Han Li said coldly as he regarded them with little importance.

Sun Ergou couldnt help but to shudder when he heard this. This Young Masters killing intent was truly too great! If he did not agree, Sun Ergou was afraid that he might be dealt with immediately.

Since Young Master speaks highly of this servant, this servants life is bound to Young Master. I will listen to and obey your every command. Under Han Lis coercion and persuasion, Sun Ergou was finally willing to take some risks.

Good, this is how it should be! Han Li nodded his head in satisfaction.

Give me your Commanders most recent movements. Han Li asked willfully.

There is one that is noteworthy. Recently, he has been going to the Eastern Citys most popular brothel, the Clear River Brothel, every afternoon. He has been entranced by the leading girl, Xiao Jinzhi. However, the three great Protectors would also accompany him, so Im afraid it might be a bit hard to deal with. Why not wait for a few more days and find a better opportunity? Since Sun Ergou had already agreed with Han Li, he would immediately do everything he could for sake of his life and glory.

No need. Since we already know the time and place, taking their small lives will be very easy. Han Li mentioned causally.

But once they die, youre afraid you wont have the capability to take over Fourth Level Gang, correct?

Yes. Within the gang, this servant is only a minor leader. There are many other who have higher ranks and better qualifications than me Sun Ergou said shamefully.

Dont worry, if I said Id make you the Commander of the Fourth Level Gang, youll definitely be the Commander. I will temporarily dispatch Crooked Soul to watch over you. He can get rid of all those that rebel against you and be your personal guard for the time being. Han Li declared confidently.

Afterwards, Han Li rushed to the room next door and knocked calmly three times. A short moment later, Crooked Soul appeared in front of them.

Keep this close to you and conceal it well. As long as you have this object on you, Crooked Soul will obey all your orders. He will get rid of your enemies and help you ascend to the position of Commander.

Han Li took out the Soul Luring watch from his bosom. He caressed it softly for a while, then handed it over to Sun Ergou.

Although the person holding Soul Luring Watch was not the master of Crooked Soul, he could still command Crooked Soul. This was another method of control on Crooked Soul that Doctor Mo taught Han Li. Furthermore, if the former owner dripped his blood essence onto the Soul Luring Watch, other people would not be able to tamper with it. Hence, Han Li was not afraid that Sun Ergou might have evil plans or other intentions. freewbnoel.com

Sun Ergou had personally seen Crooked Souls display of his mighty power, so he was especially surprised to receive the watch, increasing his courage drastically.

Many thanks to Young Masters great kindness. This servant will definitely repay this favor with my life! But Sun Ergou was very clever. He knew that despite being the Commander of the Fourth Level Gang, he was actually just this Young Masters puppet. Thus, whenever there was an opportunity, he would fervently express his loyalty.

Head back and prepare first then! Once that Commander is dead, you should take advantage of the confusion and assume control of Fourth Level Gang. But you must remember this: send me the fellow who saw the Immortal couple. I want him unharmed as I have things to ask him. Did you get that? Han Lis last sentences were very strict, clearly attaching great importance to this task.

Please be at ease, Young Master. This servant will definitely send him to you in one piece. I will absolutely not disappoint Young Master! Sun Ergou immediately patted his chest and vowed with devotion written on his face.

As long as you understand, then thats good. Bring Crooked Soul along with you then. The next time you see me, you will already be the Commander! Han Li told him without batting an eye.

This servant will retire now! Sun Ergou noted Han Lis notice to leave and tactfully retreated out of the house with great speed. Crooked Soul followed closely behind.

The moment Sun Ergou left the house, Han Li stood up. Within the house, Han Li turned in a semicircle and suddenly let out a prolonged mellow whistle. Then, from the outside, the Cloud-Winged Bird dived in and landed on Han Lis shoulder.

Han Li extracted a bottle from his bosom and poured out the Cloud-Winged Birds favorite Yellow Chestnut Pill, which he gently fed to the bird. Then he softly said, Little fellow, catch up with the person who just left the house. If he leaves the city walls to escape, immediately return and tell me.

When the Cloud-Winged Bird finished listening to Han Lis words, it chirped intelligently and proceeded to fly out of the window, disappearing into the sky.

Chapter 119: Unexpected Information

I could make the exception to act this once and cause the leaders of only one of the two gangs to disappear. After all. if the two hegemons were to simultaneously encounter misfortune, it would be far too easy for capable people to take note of this. The risk would increase significantly, so it isnt worth it for me to brave this strange danger. Furthermore, apart from these two options, I will not yield in the slightest! After Han Li said this, he hardened his face and spoke no more. He coldly waited for the wives reply.

After Lady Yan and the others heard Han Lis two choices, their faces had a concealed expression of pleasant surprise. However, after they looked at each other, they still hadnt immediately decided.

Could your distinguished self please let us sisters talk this over for a moment? Afterwards, we will give Young Master a reply. After all, this is no small matter, we must greatly think this over! Lady Yan prudently said.

Of course, I am not unreasonable. But at the latest, I require an answer by tomorrow morning. The rest of today should be enough for you to discuss this over. After Han Li said this, he no longer took notice of them and left in a relaxed manner.

Han Li climbed down the stairs and did not return to his room. Instead, he gave the burly gate guards a baffled sight as he arrogantly left the Mo Estate. After he determined there was no one following him, Han Li returned to the inn he where stayed at initially.

As he entered the inn, Sun Ergou hurriedly welcomed him.

If there is anything to say, say it in my room! Without waiting for Sun Ergou to start speaking, Han Li indifferently commanded him.

Yes, Esteemed Young Master! Sun Ergou respectfully followed behind Han Li.

Entering the room, Han Li sat on the couch and stretched himself before saying indifferently, Seeing your urgent appearance, it seems you have something important to tell me?

Young Master, there has been an extraordinary event. I must report it to you, sir. Sun Ergou mysteriously replied, unintentionally advancing half a step

If there is something to say, then say it. Dont be nervous. Han Li looked at Sun Ergou with a tilted glance.

Hehe! This humble person isnt feigning mystery. A rather unexpected event has occurred. This humble person obtained the exact information to present to Young Master. Recently, a large number of Immortals have gathered in Jia Yuan City to meet together in some sort of Great Immortal Assembly. Ive heard that so long as you can participate in this meeting, even common folk can immediately become an Immortal as a member of an Immortal clan. Sun Ergou said, his saliva splashing around.

Immortals? Han Li was slightly surprised.

Thats right, there have been people that have seen them with their own eyes. Immortals that can soar the skies, harness the mist and even expel lightning or shoot flames. Young Master, what do you say? If one does not have any luck, how could they possibly see an Immortal as they please? Sun Ergou asked somewhat enviously. Seeing his appearance, it seemed he had completely replaced himself with a person who couldnt wait to see an Immortal.

Han Li had already stopped listening at this point. What Sun Ergou called Immortals were actually cultivators. However, how did a gangster find out about the meeting of cultivators? Han Li was somewhat shocked.

How do you know of this? Do you know the much about the person who gave you this information?Han Li asked with interest.

This information is completely reliable. It is what my gang brothers have told me. However, because my gang leader is afraid of Immortals, he ordered us to seal our lips. Only the upper division of the Fourth Level Gang knows this information. I have also obtained similar information from a drunken noble. I imagine that Young Master, being such an expert, would be interested. As a result, I hastily rushed over and waited until Young Master had returned. Sun Ergou said, eager to take credit for his information. гeewebnovl.com

Oh! I will not forget your hard effort! However, first specifically explain how those in your gang evaded the notice of those Immortals after learning this information? Han Li earnestly investigated in detail. This related to the reliability of the information, therefore, Han Li didnt dare to be careless.

I also heard that drunk noble said it was like this… Sun Ergou didnt dare to speak false words and honestly informed Han Li.

Originally, the news from a small gang leader of the Fourth Level Gang. Several days ago, he was conducting a large business transaction in the west city outskirts, but who would have thought the information was incorrect? The other party was far too greedy and had planned to kill everyone before escaping with the wind.

In order to escape pursuit, he hid in a tree hole in the nearby woods. But unexpectedly, although the enemy had not found him, an incomparably large, monstrous eagle suddenly fell from the sky. That eagles frightening appearance scared the gang member stiff.

This man was quick-witted in the moment of crisis and suddenly thought to use the widely-spread Jiang Hu Turtle Breath Art. He used it on himself to reduce his breath and heartbeat to the extreme, thereby entering a state of feigned death and evading the eagles notice.

Just as he was about to lose consciousness, he heard a dialogue from a young couple on the eagles back. There were actually people on the eagles back! However, because the eagle was so large and the man was panicked, he had not noticed the people on it earlier.

Just like that, he faintly heard about the Great Immortal Assembly. At that time, he also realised the young male-female couple were Immortals, but his Turtle Breath Art ran out of time, causing him to lose consciousness.

By the time he had awakened, it was already the morning of the next day. The couple and the monstrous eagle had long departed without a trace. Thus, with no better option, he stamped his feet and beat his chest before returning crestfallen to the gang .

The moment he returned, he was immediately yelled at, so he could not help but tell his superior of this. When his superior heard this, he didnt dare to cover it up and reported it to our gang leader, Ape Armed Shen Zhongshan, who gave the command to seal our lips.

After Han Li finished hearing Sun Ergous story, although his face did not change, his heart stirred uncontrollably.

A great many cultivators were meeting together! This was a golden opportunity that only occurred once every hundred years. If he could join, he would be able to come into contact with the world of cultivators, and he would no longer have to grope in the dark as he was doing now, arbitrarily trying to find the path of cultivation.

Han Li strongly suppressed the excitement in his heart and thought for a moment. With a profoundly calm head, he asked, Did that person hear the Immortal couple say where they were holding the gathering of Immortals?

Chapter 118 Choose One. freewenovl.co

Chapter 118: Choose One

With all this said and done, what do you all think? Be honest, I dont want to have to beat around the bush again! Han Li coldly said. It seemed he wasnt influenced by Lady Yans act in the slightest.

Lady Yan wrinkled her brow. The youth in her presence was far more difficult than she had anticipated. Neither hard nor soft methods were effective, rather, she had no way of knowing how to deal with him.

Could it be that you truly want us to immediately hand over our last resort and reveal our affairs to the enemy? Lady Yan was somewhat unresigned. With the many years of handling the Fearsome Flood Dragon Associations power, she clearly understood when to be a bit lenient and when to immediately put one entire hand on the table!

She turned her head to look at Fifth Wife Wang. Within these sisters, only Lady Wang was able to oppose her decisions. Therefore, she looked at her to see whether or not Lady Wang had a proposal.

The matter of discussion with this person, I will leave to Fourth Sister, with whom I have no objections whatsoever! Lady Wang saw the meaning in Lady Yans gaze and said, as cold as ice.

When Lady Yan heard this, she was inwardly elated and had somewhat calmed her heart.

Very well. Since Sir does not want to beat around the bush, then we sisters will get right to the point and directly tell you the conditions. As these words left Lady Yans mouth, she completely regained her bearings as the leader of one of Jia Yuan Citys three major gangs. The feeling of that delicate, powerless young married woman from before was completely obliterated. Her body dispersed the prestige of a leader.

Good. From the beginning, I wanted to engage in talks as equals! Han Li faintly smiled.

So long as you exterminate the Fearsome Flood Dragon Associations sworn enemies, the Rainbow Sect and The Hegemons Villa, the Mo Estate will no longer trouble you in the future, and we will also immediately offer you the Precious Warm Yang Jade. Furthermore, we will let you choose one of our daughters, whomever you fancy, as your wife.

However, if youre unyielding in your plan rob the precious jade from us, or perhaps threaten us sisters, then your esteemed self will have been mistaken. I have already handed over the precious jade to my trusted confidant, if there is the slightest sign of trouble, then it will immediately be destroyed, ending us in mutual destruction. Lady Yan said with an imposing expression.

Lady Yan, are you not afraid of the wind cutting your tongue!? Have me, this one person, exterminate the Rainbow Sect and the Hegemons Villa? You must be truly absurd for thinking of this! Han Li seemed to have already anticipated Lady Yans threat and wasnt alarmed at all.

He had already known that the Precious Warm Yang Jade could not be acquired by acting rashly. Aside from their threats, he still didnt know how many secret recruits they harbored, and thus capturing the other party and interrogating the whereabouts of the precious jade would simply end in failure. It would be best to make the other party willingly give it to him.

Young Master Han, are you not a cultivator? How could these people of Jiang Hu be a match against your distinguished self? In addition, we dont want your to kill the gang in its entirety. Causing a few of their main leaders to disappear would be enough. This time, the gorgeous young Third Wife, after giving Han Li a soul-shaking, enchanting smile, said this with her graceful voice.

What about being a cultivator? I dont know of other cultivators, but I do know of my own abilities with clear certainty. You cant just foolishly send one person to confront a large gang of several thousand members. Do you all truly believe that cultivators can outrageously murder ordinary people without fear of repercussion?

Han Li coldly glanced at Third Wife. The aweing chilliness froze her smiling expression. Under the effects of the Eternal Spring Arts and a vigilant mind, he returned the gaze of her bewitching charming technique. How could it possibly affect him!?

Why? Does Young Master mean that there are limitations to what cultivators can do to ordinary people? Lady Yan asked, somewhat surprised by this revelation.

I am not very certain of the specific details. After all, I havent been a cultivator for long, so I wasnt truly in contact with these rules. Han Li dully said. Then he looked at Lady Yan, who looked as if she wanted to say something, and waved his hand, preventing her from talking. He continued coldly, However, if your brains arent lacking, it should be clear that cultivators cant act against mortals as they desire. After all, your so-called Lan Provinces three great hegemons and the three great gangs of Jia Yuan City still exist. They could have fallen to the schemes of unrighteous cultivators countless times. Perhaps even beautiful women like yourselves would have already become their playthings.

Han Li final sentence was completely blunt, turning the wives complexions across from him to become scarlet and their eyes to show a bit of alarm.

But this is merely Young Masters guess. Its not at all certain to be true! Lady Han was still somewhat unwilling, still attempting to persuade Han Li.

So long as there is the possibility, this person will not perform actions that would bring destruction upon himself. Han Li fundamentally did not give Lady Yans fantasies the slightest leeway, and he said this without a trace of politeness.

Dont tell me that your venerable self plans to take our daughters dowry with a sleight of hand and leave us with nothing? Lady Yans complexion was somewhat unsightly. She said the word dowry with an especially heavy emphasis.

Hearing her say this, although Han Lis expression did not change, his heart could not help but be somewhat depressed.

The Yin poison within me was originally given to me by your Lord Husband. Right now, I wont trouble you even if I am cured. What is there to think about? Han Li thought somewhat hatefully.

However, Han Li knew if he were to say these words at this moment, these wives would not take it well and certainly wouldnt give him the Precious Warm Yang Jade.

As a result, Han Li gave in and muttered to himself. Then he raised his hand, cleared his throat, and said with a clear voice, I will give you two choices. Choose whichever you fancy.

One is to have your Mo Estate immediately pack your baggage and prepare to travel far from the Lan Province. Find a place where the power of your enemy clans cannot reach you and live as a common wealthy household. You would live the rest of your lives peacefully and completely separate yourselves from the fights between Jiang Hus factions. This entire journey will be safe, I completely guarantee it, any forces that your enemies send to pursue you will unable to be harm you.

Han Li stopped there and looked at the change in the wives expressions.

Apart from a slight change from Second Wife Li, Lady Yan and Third Wife Liu were completely silent. It was clear what they thought of the proposal. Han Li didnt feel the need to look at Fifth Wife Wang since it would be impossible to make out anything useful from her icy appearance.

Han Li looked at this situation and inwardly sneered several times. Lady Yan and Lady Liu were rather ambitious people. It was impossible for them to want to give up the power of the Fearsome Flood Dragon Association and live as rural village women. When he had raised this proposal, he already understood this clearly.

And the other choice? Third Wife Liu noticed that Han Li stopped and could not but question him.

There is one other choice…

Han Li left his chair and stood. He looked up to the room before slowly telling the wives the other choice.

Chapter 117 Reconciliation.

Chapter 117: Reconciliation

When these women heard Han Lis words, their complexion rapidly changed from white to red, slightly increasing their beauty.

Lady Yan was the first to calm down. She lightly straightened the jade pin in her hair bun and once again said calmly, Even if your esteemed self is a cultivator and does not fear this bewitching scent, are you not worried about the Yin poison in your body? Nevertheless, she used her last trump card.

The moment Han Li heard what she said, his smiling face immediately turned cold. Sure enough, Doctor Mo gave the only weapon that could be used to blackmail him to these women.

Thats right, I have the cold poison in my body. But before this poison flares up, I dont mind turning this entire residence upside down and utterly slaughtering everyone! Han Li spoke in a flat tone, but the women clearly heard the threat within his words.

Lady Yan was silent for a while and did not open her mouth to speak. The rest of them also did not say anything. It seemed that when it came to life and death matters, the one making decisions in Mo Residence was still Fourth Wife Yan.

Since the both of us have scruples and we are not willing to let both sides suffer, lets have a good talk. Lady Yan said cool-headedly after that moment of silence.

Of course. I also dont plan on dying so uselessly at such a young age! Concerning his own life, Han Li did not put up any airs. He gladly agreed to her suggestion.

Hence, he went back and sat in front of Lady Yan.

However, before we start discussing, I, your servant, would like your esteemed self to repeat how my Lord Husband got murdered. After all, we were once husband and wife. We would only be reassured if we knew the real cause of his death. But be at ease, even if Lord Husband died by your hands, we would not have any ulterior motives. After all we are orphans and widows, we cannot go looking for trouble and personally seek the road to death. Lady Yans last sentence was spoken so desolately, making it seem as if Han Li was the kind of evil tyrant who bullied women and children.

One look at Lady Yans face and Han Li cant help but have a headache. Even though he knew Lady Yan was just acting, when he saw her miserable state, he felt his heart soften a little.

Wasnt it just telling them how Doctor Mo was murdered? There was nothing to cover up in this matter. After all, Han Li acknowledged that Doctor Mos death was not his fault. Instead it was Doctor Mo and Yu Zhitong who should be blamed for courting disaster.

Alright, I can describe Teacher Mos death in detail. But after you all have listened and still insist on taking revenge on me, I will oblige you at anytime! Han Li agreed to their suggestion after pondering for a while.

Many thanks to Young Master! When Lady Yan heard that Han Li was willing to speak the truth, her face immediately opened up and revealed a delighted look.

This was what happened. I was deceived by Doctor Mo,after practising Eternal Spring Arts for four years, only then did I discover…

Han Li patiently told them how he was cheated, poisoned by Doctor Mo and forced to practice the Eternal Spring Arts.

He explained that Doctor Mo had wanted to occupy his flesh body by entering his body and consuming his fundamental essence. Naturally, Yu Zhitong had then appeared and narrated the entirety of his schemes. Han Li finally discovered about his bodys Yin poison and had no choice but to come to the Lan Province and detoxify himself with the Precious Warm Yang Jade. He narrated the events the way they truly happened. Han Li wanted these wives to know that in the occurrence of Doctor Mos death, Han Li was the true victim. He hadnt slighted the Mo Estate in the least.

After Lady Yan and the other wives finished hearing Han Lis heart-shaking tale tale, they couldnt help but look at one another.

If Han Lis words were true, then their Lord Husbands death was not truly Han Lis fault. In addition, hearing the methods that Doctor Mo had used and his shrewdness, they greatly matched the long-acquired impression they had of their dead husband. Furthermore, the bits of information that the hidden letter revealed didnt contradict his story in the slightest. They estimated that his story should more or less be true.

If your esteemed self had spoken the complete truth, then our Lord Husbands death truly was not yours to blame. This was rather the fault of Yu Zhitongs ruse, otherwise how else would our Lord Husband have died? Lady Yan lightly sighed. Her words made Han Li raise an eyebrow.

This Lady Yan is far too favorable toward her own Lord Husband. With a few words, she easily pushed the entirety of Doctor Mos wrongdoings onto the deceased Yu Zhitong, cleaning Doctor Mo of the blame entirely, as if he were also a victim. Han Li stared at Lady Yan with widened eyes. Although his mouth did not say anything, his expression showed a strange emotion and made his meaning completely clear.

Lady Yan, under Han Lis attentive gaze, did not blush or jump. She only turned a blind eye.

Han Li inwardly bitterly smiled. This womans face was quite thick, not one bit thinner than a mans! He could not help but turn his head to look at the expressions of the other wives.

Third Wife Liu still had a smiling, cheery appearance and didnt have the slightest change. When she saw Han Li looking over, she gave him several flirtatious glances, causing Han Li to remain silent.

When Second Wife Li saw Han Li looking at her, she looked ill at ease and faintly lowered her head. She certainly was worthy of being called a girl from a wealthy family, as well as educated and well balanced. It was clear she was somewhat ashamed of Lady Yans words from a moment ago.

As for Fifth Wife Wang, although this cool, elegant young woman was expressionless, she was entirely focused on tangling her fingers together, exposing an abnormality of her heart. As for her attitude, Han Li did not know.

However, according to Young Masters words just now, we have no deep animosity or hate toward one another. In that case, it would be best to conduct peace talks. Lady Yan opened her almond lips and faintly said this.

When Han Li heard Lady Yans words, he turned his head and faintly stated, What is there to discuss? Give me the Precious Warm Yang Jade, and I will turn around and leave, certain to no longer disturb the Mo Estate!

That is out of the question! Lady Yan faintly smiled and immediately gave a flat decline.

Why is it unacceptable? Han Li said, unagitated.

Yesterday, Young Master was outside this servants room and should have heard much of the vile situation the Mo Estate is in! It should be quite clear to you, sir, that without external assistance, our Mo Estate will be completely exterminated. It is only a matter of time. If it is like this, then it would better to have Young Master cleanly kill us sisters instead and have death end all troubles! Lady Yan pitifully lamented with red eyes.

When Han Li heard this, he bafflingly stared at Lady Yan without speaking, directly looking at Lady Yans scarlet cheeks. However, she stubbornly continued to refuse to meet Han Lis gaze.

Han Li let out a long sigh. He now knew where Mo Caihuan, that little demoness, learned her clever schemes, it was clearly from imitating this older demoness.

Chapter 116 Falling Out.

Chapter 116: Falling Out

Hearing these words, he raised his head to yawn. Then he sneered, saying, Treat me unjustly? Those are some grand words.You think I am truly scared of your Mo Estate?

Were if not for the many days I had Teacher Mo for a master, imparting onto me his great medicinal expertise, and the foul reputation I would receive for bullying women… Humph! Against you, with only a single hand, I could kill this entire Mo Estate without allowing even a dog or chicken to remain! Han Lis words chilled to the bone, his expression extremely sinister.

Han Li determined his plan. Since he was unable to cheat the Mo Estate of the precious jade, he would adopt a sinister attitude and only used unyielding methods. He planned to show a bit of his skill and have the wives know that this man was difficult to handle, forcing them to hand over the Precious Warm Yang Jade.

When Lady Yan and company had first heard Han Lis fierce words, they all had stunned expressions. But soon after, they smiled bitterly. Third Wife Liu even bent backwards from her blossoming laughter.

It was clear that these wives were not convinced by Han Lis words. But soon, their faces were completely frozen.

That was because Han Li had extended a finger. A fireball suddenly appeared at his fingertip. When this winecup-sized fireball appeared, the entire rooms temperature suddenly rose. It was as if the wives had entered a scorching summer.

Then Han Li cooly gazed toward them, as if he were trying to find a target for his Fireball Technique, in order to have these wives know he was somewhat ferocious. However, he did not expect that before Han Li made a move, Lady Li couldnt help but yell Cultivator! with an expression of fear.

The rest of them also turned deathly pale. Looking at the five wives with an ice-cold expression, he saw that they were emotionally moved and looked at Han Li with gazes full of astonishment.

These women knew about the existence cultivators but were unexpectedly frightened by Han Li. Their expression appeared even more gloomy.

You truly are a cultivator? Third Wife Liu widely opened his beautiful eyes, asking with some doubt.

Han Li snorted. Hu La! Without saying anything further, he simply shot the fireball toward the table next to Lady Liu and reduced it to to ash in the blink of an eye.

This action filled Lady Lius face with fright, completely whitening it. She immediately stood and recoiled several steps away from the ashes before shakily coming to a stop. Currently, if any other man saw that lovely, delicate face, they would have immediately fallen crazy for her.

Unfortunately, Han Li absolutely could not appreciate this view. He was currently staring at Lady Li, who had shouted Cultivator!. He asked with a cold voice, Second Wife, how do you know of cultivators? Could it be youve seen other cultivators before?

I… Lady Li became terrified. She was greatly fearful of Han Lis status of a cultivator.

Dont ask Second Sister. I will tell you about matter regarding cultivators! From the side, Lady Yan closed her eyes with a tired expression before interrupting Han Lis questioning.

Oh, then could you enlighten me? Han Li stroked his nose, his expression somewhat relaxed.

This isnt something to hide. Jia Yuan City has a large population, and everyone knows of the existence of cultivators. After Lady Yan opened her eyes, she said this with a bitter smile.

Even some people outside the city have seen the wars between cultivators with their own eyes. It is said they could call the wind, summon the rain, and control blasts of fire. Each and every one of them is like a living Immortal. Lady Yan said this and looked at Han Li with a peculiar gaze.

So it was like that! Han Li patted the back of his head, he had unexpectedly forgotten that Jia Yuan City was not at all a small region like the Celestial Rainbow Mountains. Having cultivators appear here seemed to not be such a rare occurrence. Yesterday, did he not see that blue-clothed man!?

Then did Teacher Mo also know the existence of cultivators? Han Li thought of something and could not help but carelessly ask.

Of course he knew. Lord Husband had seen the wars between cultivators with his own eyes. Lady Yan felt that nothing good would come from hiding anything and replied without hesitation.

Doctor Mo was quite infatuated with cultivators. So it turned out that he had previously seen a true cultivator! Unfortunately, he did not have spiritual roots and wasted his many schemes, even bringing slight benefits to myself, Han Li thought

However, Han Li suddenly felt somewhat baffled. Why was Lady Yan currently so obedient? Whatever he asked, she sincerely replied. The slightest temperament was absent. On the mere basis that he was a cultivator, the other party had completely surrendered. Han Li found this hard to believe.

Han Li carefully observed Lady Yans expression and found that she had an easy, relaxed expression with some slight impatience.

Could it be shes stalling for time? Han Li wrinkled his brow and released his spiritual sense. There was not a sign of a single outsider intruding near the building.

Han Li looked around and suddenly stood. He walked around the room, carefully observing in every direction.

It seemed there was nothing suspicious, and the furniture in the interior of the room were quite simple. Apart from the tables and chairs, it was the same as yesterday. All except for a white candle, half melted from its burning wick.

Candle? Han Lis gaze fell upon the candle. He had originally believed the white candle was lit in memory of Doctor Mo, and thus he did not mind it. But now he remembered, since they had been holding a memorial service for their Lord Husband, why did they not light any incense? This was somewhat abnormal.

Thinking of this, Han Li used his nose to carefully smell and found the air to to smell like sandalwood. This fragrance was far too light. If one did not deliberately pay attention, they absolutely could not perceive this.

When Lady Yan saw Han Li look at the candle, she stood slightly less naturally. But after Han Li sniffed the air, her face greatly changed. At this moment, Han Lis face broke into a smile that was unusually cheerful.

Whats so funny? Even if you discovered the trick of the candle, its already too late. This bewitching drug can intoxicate a thousand men. When ordinary people smell this, their bones loosen and their muscles become soft, losing all power in their limbs. Even when martial artists smell this, they lose their True Qi and martial arts. Even if youre a cultivator, youve already been in this room far too long to remain unaffected. Lady Yan somewhat lost her patience and spoke those testing words.

Its nothing. Its just that I feel that my luck is not bad at all! Han Li said with a smile.

When I was at the Seven Mysteries Sect, I have long heard of the methods employed by Jiang Hus Ghost Sect, including their poison. I have received an extremely deep impression of bewitching scents because I had previously suffered hardships and experienced dangers from which I couldnt protect myself. Because even a common man could use poisons to easily kill a great expert, I long racked my brains for a solution until I finally figured out a way to protect myself from the silly methods of incapacitating drugs and poisons. Han Li somewhat contently stated.

Lady Yan and company looked at each other in dismay. What kind of method was this? How could it be that he had still not collapsed? This mustve been true. As of currently, the ladies complexions had already turned completely white.

As for what method…. Seeing that the wives could not help but want to hear him spill his secrets, even tilting their ears, Han Li could not refrain from chuckling inwardly, I dont plan on telling you because I have a habit of not revealing my secrets to my enemies! Han Li said with a deadpan expression.

Chapter 115 A Startling Change.

Chapter 115: A Startling Change

Just as they reached the second floor, before Yan Ge could knock on the door, Lady Yans voice came from within the room.

Is it Han Li and Yan Ge?

That is right, Fourth Martial Mother! Yan Ge hastily stopped and respectfully replied.

Yan Ge, return first. Just Han Li entering alone will do. Lady Yans faint voice could be heard from within. That distinct, cold voice could not help but touch Han Lis heart.

As you wish. Yan Ge was clearly very respectful of Lady Yan, and he followed her command without the slightest hesitation. After he smiled to Han Li, he quietly descended from the second floor. Only Han Li remained upstairs, waiting outside the room.

Han Li coldly looked at the room door, but instead of immediately entering, he released his spiritual sense and scoped out the situation inside the room. He didnt wish to go in alone, only to be ambushed and killed by a room of hidden soldiers, so it was better to be a bit careful!

It was very quiet in the room, and the number of people inside wasnt large. Han Li could only hear the breathing and heartbeats of Lady Yan and a few others. It appeared that there wasnt anyone that shouldnt be there. This greatly relieved Han Li.

Thus, he stepped forward and lightly knocked on the door twice. He then opened the room door, planning to take a quick look before entering. However, what he saw in the room greatly changed Han Lis complexion. His step had stiffly halted mid air.

The room was the same as the night before, the chairs, desks, and decorations were all exactly the same. The only thing different were the beautiful womens style of dress. Lady Yan and the other beautiful wives were all wearing white silk mourning clothes from head to toe. They all sat on chairs and unwaveringly gazed at Han Li with cool eyes.

Han Lis complexion turned somewhat pale. However he was not scared but rather annoyed with the deceased Doctor Mo.

It was very clear why Doctor Mo, that old fox, had forced him to travel such a great distance. It seemed that he had guessed correctly: that letter had contained a hidden message that gave the tigresses news of Doctor Mos death. It was as if they were waiting for Doctor Mos murderer to visit them voluntarily!

Han Li took a deep breath and returned his complexion to normal. He then entered the room in large strides, without a trace of politeness, he looked for a chair and arrogantly sat across from the wives. After seeing them not say a single word, he planned to observe how these women would deal with him in the end.

It was clear Han Lis completely unrestrained action was intended to tear away at their faces. However, largely against his expectation, he had thrown them into confusion. each of their expressions having nothing in common.

Second Wife Lis expression turned green. It was clear this Han Li, who had so clearly said Martial Mother yesterday, was now daring to brazenly act as if he were meeting with those of the same generation. This Second Wife was born of a scholarly family and paid great attention to generational separation. Now that she had come across this chap who was unfilial towards his master, how could she not tremble with anger?

Third Wife Liu differed greatly from Lady Li. Not only did she refrain from getting angry, she also looked toward Han Li with a very interested expression. However, because of her astonishing glamor, Han Li didnt dare to look at her directly, and had simply looked at her with a sweeping gaze.

Lady Yan and the cool, elegant Lady Wang were about the same. They wordlessly looked at Han Li with gazes brimming with a freezing chilliness.

Your courage is awfully great, my Lord Husbands last disciple! After the time it took to make a cup of tea, Lady Yan eventually opened her mouth, her words containing a mocking intention. Everyone could clearly hear her ridicule.

Martial Mothers, whatever you wish to know or wish to say, please say them directly. I dont wish to hear nonsense or unnecessary words! Han Li said with a blank face.

Han Li had clearly understood, if a wife were to bicker about how terrible she felt, and then the other wives would engage in a verbal duel. Rather than expand a great deal of effort to resolve this, he felt that he may as well get straight to the core problem. This was what he believed.

Since there were no saber lights or sword shadows belonging to hidden experts inside the room, Han Li speculated that the wives currently had no plans to dispose of him. It seemed they either had misgivings or had demands for him. Since it was like this, there was no need to be too polite. In any case, Doctor Mos death was an invitation for disaster, he had nothing to be ashamed of.

You…. Although Lady Yan had much knowledge about all sorts of battles between men, the rupturing tone of Han Lis words nearly made her speechless.

Fine, I will ask then! Was my Lord Husband killed by your traitorous hands!? Second Wife could not help but want to spit fire from her elegant eyes. Her scholarly air had completely vanished, leaving behind only a face of resentment.

Second Sister! Lady Yan wrinkled her brow and softly called her as if to prevent the Second Wifes questions from immediately causing both parties to fall into disagreement.

This Lady Li is actually quite frank to directly bring the most crucial question to the table. Han Li inwardly sneered, thinking of this.

It could be said that I killed him, but it could be also said that he killed himself! Han Li said indifferently.

This sentence caused the wives sitting across from him to be shocked. They believed that Han Li would either readily deny it or simply brazenly admit it. What were they supposed to do if they could not make sense of the answer?

Second Wife Li stared blankly for a moment, but she immediately became agitated. She clearly believed that Han Li was playing with them.

What is this nonsense? It was clearly you who harmed him. Lady Li tremblingly retorted.

How are you certain that I killed him? Did you see it with your own two eyes? Han Li asked, no longer polite. He clearly understood that Doctor Mo had written that he was murdered in the letter. Naturally, they werent completely certain whether or not he had died by Han Lis hand. Han Li guessed that the letter, which Doctor Mo had set aside for these wives, contained nothing but a few speculative words. As a result, Han Li could completely refute these misgivings.

Since youve said this, tell us women how our Lord Husband was murdered once through. If you were truly unrelated, we wont deliberately treat you unjustly. The cool, elegant Fifth Wife Wang, who had been silent all along, finally spoke.
