Chapter 97: Master, Take Care

From Lingjun City to Tianxuan Mountain, there is a distance of over ten thousand miles, but for Han Li, it was just a few steps.

A figure descended a hundred miles outside Tianxuan Mountain. This person was handsome and wore a green robe with a purple jade hanging from his waist. It was Han Li.

After observing for a while, Han Li sighed inwardly and flew towards the Tianxuan Mountain Range at the speed of the Vital Spirit Realm.

Before long, he returned to Tianxuan Mountain. After reporting his arrival, Qiu Shuilin came and led him to meet the Sect Master.

When Qiu Shuilin saw Han Li for the first time, his heart was stirred. He couldn't discern Han Li's cultivation level, but Han Li gave him a feeling of unfathomableness.

Could it be that Han Li has reached the later stage of the Soul Refining Realm?

Qiu Shuilin was somewhat surprised, but then he thought of something and his expression turned gloomy.

The two flew towards the main peak of Tianxuan Mountain. Seeing Qiu Shuilin's strange expression, Han Li pondered for a moment but didn't ask.

Soon, they arrived at the summit of the main peak, where Gong Sunyun stood with his hands behind his back, seemingly looking at something.

Han Li noticed that Gong Sunyun seemed to like this place very much. They always met here.

Qiu Shuilin took his leave, and Han Li watched his departing figure with a slightly furrowed brow.

"Jiang Cheng is dead."

Gong Sunyun's voice sounded in Han Li's ears.

Han Li's pupils contracted.

Jiang Cheng had actually died. No wonder Qiu Shuilin didn't look good. Jiang Cheng was his direct disciple and highly valued by Qiu Shuilin. Qiu Shuilin had invested a great deal of effort in Jiang Cheng.

Han Li had only met Jiang Cheng three times, but he had a deep impression of him. After being trapped in the tribulation of emotions for decades, he finally broke through it. A bright future awaited him, and it would have been easy for him to reach the Soul Refining Realm and even have a chance at the Empty Void Realm.

Han Li still remembered their last meeting, which was several years ago when Jiang Cheng went down the mountain to gain experience and invited him to accompany him to Lingjun City.

In fact, it was Qiu Shuilin's idea. If Han Li had agreed to accompany Jiang Cheng, with his cultivation level, Jiang Cheng's safety would have been greatly guaranteed.

Fortunately, Han Li didn't agree. It was a good thing he didn't.

At that time, he was only at the peak of the Soul Refining Realm and planned to continue hiding and focusing on cultivation, waiting for his cultivation level to improve before making any moves. He didn't expect that Jiang Cheng would actually encounter trouble.

If he had agreed to accompany Jiang Cheng, they might have both survived, or they might have both died.

Who knew what danger Jiang Cheng had encountered? It might have implicated Han Li as well, and they could have both died in that experience.

Tianxuan Mountain was just one of the four major sects in Leizhou. Its influence in Huozhou was not significant. During this period, many Myriad Manifestations Realm Grandmasters had settled in Huozhou, making it an extremely dangerous place. Han Li would not willingly expose himself to the sight of these powerful figures. That would be too insecure.

Jiang Cheng's death reminded Han Li once again not to take unnecessary risks. Jiang Cheng was a warning, and by hiding, he could avoid over 95% of the dangers. Hiding was the most suitable path for his development.

"Hoo~"

Han Li let out a long breath, his expression becoming even more determined.

Gong Sunyun had been observing Han Li's reaction all along. Seeing this, he felt more at ease. For him, the more Han Li hid, the better. Only by hiding could Tianxuan Mountain have a future.

"Disciple, what brings you back to the mountain?" Gong Sunyun asked.

"Four Myriad Manifestations Realm Grandmasters have died in Jizhou," Han Li replied.

Gong Sunyun raised an eyebrow and probed, "What do you mean?"

"Calmness is temporary. Daqian is about to be in chaos. It is not suitable to stay in a place of turmoil for long. I plan to move," Han Li spoke frankly. He had already made up his mind to move, and he could say all of this.

"Ah~" Gong Sunyun nodded, sighed, and said, "You're right. Storms are coming."

"Wu'an Wang has been in Huozhou for many years, seemingly plotting something. This is likely to turn Leizhou, Huozhou, and Qingzhou into a battleground for various forces. A great war will break out, and it will have far-reaching consequences. It is indeed not suitable to stay for long."

If possible, Gong Sunyun would have wanted to move Tianxuan Mountain away from the three provinces and develop in another province.

But the power structure in his province had long been established. If Tianxuan Mountain wanted to intervene, it would only be met with resistance from various sects and be expelled.

Tianxuan Mountain's thousand-year foundation was in Leizhou, and he didn't want to abandon all of that. Otherwise, he would have no face to meet the ancestors of past generations.

"Where do you want to move to? Leaving Daqian?" Gong Sunyun continued to inquire.

Han Li shook his head slightly and said, "I can't leave Daqian for now. Let's move to Yuanzhou first."

Gong Sunyun: "."

It was just a casual remark, and Gong Sunyun didn't expect Han Li to actually have this idea. But it made sense, as it was in line with Han Li's character.

Daqian has now become a chessboard for various top powers, and there will be great chaos in the future. Han Li wants to live a stable life, so he wants to change his location.

However, Han Li's current strength is not enough. Otherwise, he would probably have to leave the Daqian Empire with the Han family.

After a pause, Gong Sunyun said, "Yuanzhou is a good place."

Although Yuanzhou is adjacent to Jizhou, where four Grandmasters have died, it should not have been affected yet.

Three Grandmasters died at the hands of King Wu'an, who is in Huozhou. The mysterious force that wants revenge is more likely to affect Huozhou, Leizhou, and Qingzhou.

Yuanzhou is only one province away from Yuanzhou, closer to the capital of Daqian Empire. It would indeed be more stable compared to Leizhou.

"After seeing the Master, I should also leave," Han Li said.

Looking at Gong Sunyun's back, Han Li knew how much pressure he was under, but he couldn't stay and fight alongside Tianxuan Mountain and Gong Sunyun.

He had his own path to walk, and Tianxuan Mountain was just a passerby on his path to immortality.

Even though his strength was stronger than Gong Sunyun's, he couldn't bear it. In a big battle, the Myriad Manifestations Realm Grandmasters were the main force, and the Empty Void Grandmasters could only assist. Not to mention that even the True Martial Realm Martial Kings could be defeated.

Since his strength was insufficient, it was better to avoid getting involved. There was no need to compete. He didn't lack opportunities, and it was better to stay low-key than anything else.

"Go ahead, go ahead." Gong Sunyun hesitated to speak, but he handed him a spatial ring, telling him to check it at the appropriate time.

"Take care, Master."

After speaking, Han Li took the spatial ring and turned to leave.

"Han Li, if Tianxuan Mountain is in danger of being destroyed, even if I die, you don't need to come back. Remember the sixteen-word true mantra I told you," Gong Sunyun's voice came, and Han Li's figure paused before leaving the main peak.

Gong Sunyun didn't know when he turned around, watching Han Li's disappearing figure with a complex expression.

The last time Han Li returned to the mountain, he could still see the depth of Han Li's cultivation. But this time, he couldn't see through him anymore.

The concealment technique he taught Han Li was very advanced, even a whole realm higher couldn't see through it. But with his cultivation level, if he deliberately observed, he could still find subtle flaws. However, he didn't see any flaws in Han Li.

This indicated that Han Li's cultivation might have reached the Empty Void Realm, quietly becoming a Grandmaster.

"This child's future achievements are limitless," Gong Sunyun sighed.

Although Han Li's cultivation was so high, the aura he displayed was only at the early stage of the Vital Spirit Realm. It must be said that he was very low-key. He didn't actively cause trouble, and he was only focused on taking concubines. He didn't even forcefully marry them, which reduced the probability of trouble.

Withdrawing his gaze, Gong Sunyun returned to his previous appearance and looked into the distance, lost in thought.

He was looking towards the Dao Territory. In order to secure the foundation of Tianxuan Mountain, Gong Sunyun had secretly sent an elder to the Dao Territory's Taixuan Sect for help.

Tianxuan Mountain was only a small sect. Within the Taixuan Sect, they had more opportunities to cultivate to the Myriad Manifestations Realm, and even the True Martial Realm.

"I hope there's still time," Gong Sunyun sighed. Although his strength was powerful, it was difficult to support everything alone under such pressure.

Thinking of Gong Sunyun's daughter, he couldn't help but have a headache. His daughter was too stubborn and insisted on staying at Tianxuan Mountain.
