Xuanshi City.

It was still that mansion with tall gates and a large courtyard.

At this moment, a lady in a purple dress was brewing tea, while a beauty in a yellow dress played the zither. Both were at ease, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

“What a comfortable life,” said the lady in purple, lifting her cup to savor a sip of the freshly brewed Spiritual Tea, relishing the moment.

They had been living in the manor for nearly two years, hidden away in the mortal world without any contact with Xuanshi City’s Cultivation Realm.

The saying ‘the greatest hiddenness is to seem ordinary’ held true here. Hidden in this place, even the mad dogs of the Jingye Office hadn’t pursued them here, allowing the two women to gradually lower their guard.

The lady in purple quite liked their current life—no need to fight and kill, no need to struggle for cultivation resources, and no need to lurk cautiously and walk on thin ice in the capital city of the Daqian Empire.

They were from the God Refining Realm, but their lifespans were not just limited to five hundred years—they nearly had two thousand years because they were from the Demon Clan.

Within the same realm, members of the Demon Clan had lifespans three or four times longer than the Human Clan, a unique advantage of their race. However, the Demon Clan’s disadvantage was also clear: their cultivation speed was six to seven times slower than the humans’, and sometimes even more than ten times slower.

For the lady in purple and the beauty in yellow, with more than a thousand years of life remaining, they had plenty of time to enjoy life leisurely for a very long time.

Setting her teacup down, the lady in purple looked to the beauty playing the zither, and thinking of a recent rumor, she spoke up,

“I heard that an Immortal Refining Clan has just moved to Yuanzhou and will soon pass through our Xuanshi City. Their patriarch is extremely lecherous, frequently taking concubines. Would you like to go and trouble him?”

“That Han Family patriarch has moved from Leizhou to Qingzhou, to Jizhou, then Yuanzhou, taking concubines every step of the way during his migration. He truly deserves the title of ‘Concubine-taking Elder,”‘ she added.

The music from the zither ceased abruptly.

“Are you talking about that Concubine-taking Elder who forcefully abducts women as his concubines, treats them as cauldrons for cultivation, and exploits them daily?” the beauty in yellow asked in a deep voice.

She detested two kinds of people the most in her life: faithless men and demonic cultivators who prey on female cultivators. If she encountered such individuals, she vowed to eliminate them.

Back in the capital of the Daqian Empire, the official’s son she devoured was the former type. The beauty in yellow had witnessed how he abandoned his true love and treated her as nothing more than an object, abusing his power to commit wrongdoing.

“It doesn’t seem so. The concubines he took along the way were all willingly offered by various factions, and reportedly, they all live quite comfortably,” the lady in purple said with an uncertain tone.

“Then there’s no rush,” the beauty in yellow replied, shaking her head. Such matters required thorough investigation, and she didn’t want to accidentally harm the innocent.

If that Concubine-taking Elder was indeed relocating his clan to Yuanzhou, they could pay more attention to him in the future. If he turned out to be one of those demonic cultivators who exploit others, she would show no mercy.

“Didn’t a great battle occur recently in Leizhou? Four great Grandmasters participated, and ultimately, the Mother of Non-Existence fell into the hands of a mysterious Grandmaster. It’s unclear what the situation is now,” continued the lady in purple.

The beauty in yellow shook her head, “Such matters don’t require our concern.” The Myriad Phenomena Realm was far from them, and the issue was unrelated to them.

“Boring, ” the lady in purple pouted, but resigned herself to quell her curiosity.

On the other side, within the convoy of Han Mansion in the midst of relocation, Han Li witnessed this scene.

“Interesting, ” he thought.

To think that there were members of the Demon Clan in Yuanzhou, and just hundreds of miles ahead in Xuanshi City, were two late-stage God Refining Realm cultivators.

Glancing at Lu Tianxiang in his arms, Han Li thought to himself, “These are indeed demonesses.”

Lu Tianxiang was once called a ‘demoness’ as well, but that was just a term, a pejorative title. However, the two women in Xuanshi City were genuine demonesses, female cultivators from the Demon Clan.

Yet, these two demonesses had quite the nerve to venture into the heartland of the Human Clan, a move that could only be described as brash and outrageous.

Situated to the southeast of Xuan Domain, which is located in the central region of Qianyuan Divine Province, the Divine Province is divided into eight regions and two seas. Apart from the Barbarian Region to the north and the Demon Domain to the south, the other six regions and most of the seas are dominated by the Human Clan.

Referring to Daqian as the heart of the Human Clan would not be an exaggeration.

Due to its favorable location, Xuan Domain attracted the attention of various parties wanting a piece of it, preventing a unified power from emerging since the ancient calamities.

“I wonder what those two God Refining Realm demonesses taste like, how succulent they might be. Should I capture and sample them?” pondered Han Li.

His Spiritual Sense spread in all directions, observing everything within its range, penetrating through the veil around the lady in purple and the beauty in yellow.

After advancing to the seventh layer of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, his Spiritual Sense matched that of the True Martial Realm, capable of covering an area as large as five hundred thousand miles. However, this consumed a great deal of mental energy.

Han Li maintained a coverage area of only one hundred thousand miles during the migration, within which, given his strength, no one in the Daqian Empire could hide from his scrutiny.

The two demonesses couldn’t have imagined that despite their utmost caution, they had fallen into the eyes of a certain elder.

They had set up a concealment formation to prevent detection by Spiritual Sense. Even close scrutiny from the Myriad Phenomena Realm would likely miss it, which should have been sufficient.

Normally, Grandmasters of the Myriad Phenomena Realm wouldn’t visit a manor city, nor would they scan broadly and closely with their Spiritual Sense without good reason, let alone Emperor Wu from the True Martial Realm.

But Elder Han was different. He carefully maintained a one hundred thousand mile coverage of his Spiritual Sense during the migration to preemptively deal with any potential crises.

Upon detecting the concealment formation, Han Li, concerned about an ambush, penetrated it with his Spiritual Sense. The two demonesses never realized that someone had opened a gap in their concealment formation, allowing their entire conversation to reach Han Li’s ears.

“Practice abstinence, practice abstinence, do not stir up trouble for now,” Han Li quickly abandoned the thought, but still couldn’t resist marking the two demonic females.

The two demonic females, having cultivated to the late stages of the God Refining Realm with hopes of reaching the Hollow Void Stage, possessed decent aptitudes and high attractiveness. He could consider them as potential concubines and decided to capture them if the opportunity arose.

Mostly because the two demonic females seemed not inherently evil and had not sought him out for trouble, Han Li couldn’t find an excuse to take them as concubines.

Old Ancestor Han had already passed the early stages of craving and now had higher standards, setting his sights on high-quality female cultivators like Lu Tianxiang and Jiang Baiye.

Capturing two with fourth-grade talents wouldn’t be of much use; he already had descendants of fourth-grade aptitude. Besides the novelty of their true demonic identities, which was a bonus, the two demonic females weren’t much different from his other beautiful concubines.

“It’s all because your talents aren’t good enough, you don’t have that fortune,” Han Li sighed secretly. If the two demonic females had fourth-grade talents, he wouldn’t care so much and would capture them first and deal with the rest later.

The two demonic females in Xuanshi City were blissfully unaware they had narrowly escaped a predicament; they continued to enjoy the pleasures of life, luxuries they couldn’t have in the Demon Domain.

When the Han Mansion’s migration caravan passed through Xuanshi City, the watching powers heaved a sigh of relief, grateful that the caravan did not take root in Xuanshi City.

According to the route, after passing through Xuanshi City and two more manors, they would reach their destination, Yonchang Manor.

As the migration caravan entered the next manor, Han Li was in the luxurious carriage, playing with Han Yongzhen and talking to the little fellow.

Don’t be fooled by Han Yongzhen’s few months of age; he was already as tall as a normal child of two or three, exceptionally intelligent and brimming with spiritual energy, and he could already speak.

After handing Han Yongzhen over to Lu Tianxiang to care for, Han Li watched the interaction between mother and son, yet his mind was pondering another matter.

Would Sword Immortal Jiang Baiye keep her promise and arrive as agreed?

It had been more than half a year since he last met Jiang Baiye, captured her, and made her swear an oath.

According to the agreement, Jiang Baiye was to join him within a year, leaving roughly two months now.

If Jiang Baiye failed to show up, Han Li would not be lenient; he would simply don another disguise and annihilate the Canghai Sect, capturing Jiang Baiye himself.

Last time, aside from making Jiang Baiye vow a spiritual oath, he had also implanted a mental seed in her mind to prevent any leaks of information.

For the past half-year, Han Li hadn’t been paying much attention, nor did he deliberately pry into Jiang Baiye’s privacy. However, this didn’t mean he wouldn’t notice; he would be immediately aware if Jiang Baiye considered revealing anything.

The mental seed would also self-destruct immediately, destroying Jiang Baiye’s divine spirit.

From the beginning to end, Han Li had not sensed any inclination from Jiang Baiye to divulge any information, so he was not in a hurry. No matter what, Jiang Baiye couldn’t escape his grasp.

Although Han Li had some reservations at first, now that he possessed True Martial Realm combat ability and could easily kill Prince Wu’an, why worry about the exposure of the Body-Cultivating Furnace?

Even if his possession of the Mother of No Birth and the mysterious Great Grandmaster being Han Li were revealed, he wasn’t concerned, for strength was the best confidence.

That said, unless necessary, Han Li still preferred to keep it under wraps, not flaunting it deliberately, but he wouldn’t fear it when push came to shove.

From beginning to end, Han Li understood a key point: he was just lying low, not being cowardly.

If, when trouble loomed, he still thought of avoiding it despite having the strength to deal with it, then that would indeed be cowardly.

Qingzhou, Canghai Sect.

Jiang Baiye stood atop a mountain peak, which was her cultivation ground.

As one of the Sect Heirs, Jiang Baiye had her own mountain peak in the Sect early on, where she could establish her cultivation ground.

After returning to the Sect last time, she kept her oath and revealed no information about Han Li to her master or the Sect.

Jian Ziyun, who had much he wanted to say, hesitated repeatedly. He was a Hollow Realm Master, and yet he was humiliated by being knocked unconscious in a sneak attack and couldn’t understand why.

He also wanted to know who Jiang Baiye had met that night, what happened afterward, and how he safely returned to the Sect.

Jiang Baiye didn’t go into details, only advising her master not to dig deeper as it could bring disaster upon the Sect.

Chilled by the thought, Jian Ziyun realized anyone capable of knocking him out instantly and threatening the Sect’s existence must be at least a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

Since Jiang Baiye was reluctant to speak, Jian Ziyun didn’t press her. With the issue involving a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, and the Canghai Sect already under great pressure, it was indeed inadvisable to provoke other formidable enemies. 𝐟𝗿ee𝘄𝗲𝗯𝐧o𝘃el.𝐜o𝚖

Jiang Baiye did not mention anything about the Body-Cultivating Furnace from beginning to end. She didn’t want her master to know too much, reasoning that she would recover it herself.

She had already dealt with all matters within the Sect and could go to meet Han Li, but she hesitated to leave.

Jiang Baiye knew that once she left to meet Han Li, it would be difficult to return to the Canghai Sect. She wanted to take one last long look at the Sect where she had spent decades, filled with her memories.

She also knew that after joining Han Li, that shameless lecher would not let her off easily, and she wouldn’t be able to resist a Grandmaster; she would likely lose her virtue to him.

Thus, Jiang Baiye wanted to delay as long as possible. After all, there was a year’s time; she would prolong it as much as she could.

Jiang Baiye remained on the mountain, quietly overlooking the Sect until the date of the agreement approached. Only then did she rise, bid farewell to her master, claiming she needed to undergo a period of cultivation outside.

As Jiang Baiye descended the mountain, Han Li, on the other hand, arrived at his destination, Yonchang Manor, while sitting in the carriage.
