Half a month later.
Han Qingzi received a visitor in the courtyard, his gaze curiously studying Luo Qingyan in front of him.
"What brings you here?" Han Qingzi asked.
"Is Master Han interested in a collaboration?" Luo Qingyan smiled coyly at Han Qingzi.
"Oh, how do we collaborate?" Han Qingzi looked Luo Qingyan up and down, finding this woman quite charming.
"Yang Qingshan indeed possesses high-level sword scripture, and besides that, there are Magical Treasures like the Soul-Attracting Bell." Luo Qingyan said.
Han Qingzi squinted his eyes, smiling at Luo Qingyan as he asked, "What do you an by telling this?"
"Doesn’t Master Han have any interest?" Luo Qingyan looked into his eyes and asked.
Han Qingzi pondered for a mont, amused, "I recall you were quite close to him. The last ti you were here, it was because that Yang Qingshan was quite rude to this old man."
"I hope Master Han won’t hold the last ti against . As a simple Loose Cultivator, it’s really not easy." Luo Qingyan said, "This Yang Qingshan brought benefits, hence I allied with him initially. However, Master wouldn’t think I’d rely on a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, right?"
"So, why are you seeking ?" Han Qingzi asked.
"Tomorrow, Yang Qingshan will go to the sea area to slay demons for trials. Recently, the Demon Cores he collects are from the sea, and as I know, he still holds many. Besides, this person has extraordinary talent, able to kill a Condensed Core in the Foundation Establishnt Realm, and he must have high-level sword scripture, yet I cannot deal with him, which is why I’ve co to ask Master Han to take action."
"What do you seek from it?" Han Qingzi stared into her eyes and asked.
"He’s no longer useful to , so why not exchange him for so tangible benefits? I don’t have the right to take the treasures on him, leaving those for Master Han. I only want so Demon Cores and also request Master Han to grant a few Gathering Spirit Pills." Luo Qingyan said sincerely.
Han Qingzi gazed at Luo Qingyan; this woman was indeed clever, knowing that even if he took action, she wouldn’t hope to get anything from Li Fan, or she’d be courting death, and her proposed conditions weren’t excessive.
"Alright." Han Qingzi bead brilliantly, saying to Luo Qingyan, "Since Luo Fairy is interested, this old man certainly won’t let Luo Fairy down."
"Master Han is indeed straightforward, in that case, I shall wait for Master Han’s arrival." Luo Qingyan smiled and said as she bowed out.
After she left, soone approached Han Qingzi, asking, "Does Master Han believe her words?"
"Seventy percent." Han Qingzi watched Luo Qingyan’s vanishing silhouette with a grin, saying, "But it doesn’t matter, even if she lied, it’s fine, for tomorrow will be her death day."
After saying this, Han Qingzi’s eyes glimred with a cold, chilling smile, exuding a murderous intention.
He certainly wouldn’t fully trust Luo Qingyan to co alone; even if Luo Qingyan sched against him, it wouldn’t matter, as one Foundation Establishnt Cultivator and three Condensed Core cultivators were no big deal for him.
Luo Qingyan returned to Li Fan’s courtyard.
"As you instructed, I went there, and that old fellow agreed." Luo Qingyan said, "Do you think he’ll go?"
"Of course, since he already had his eye on , he wouldn’t miss this opportunity." Li Fan replied, "Whether he believes you or not, he will go, but not alone."
"This Han Qingzi, with his mid-stage of Condensed Core cultivation, if he brings along another mid-stage Condensed Core Qi Cultivator, it could be a bit troubleso." Luo Qingyan replied.
"No, he won’t." Li Fan said, "Since Han Qingzi is a scher, he will naturally be wary of others, not letting things get out of his control. If soone with mid-stage of Condensed Core goes along, what if they see the treasures and plot against him?"
"So, Han Qingzi will only invite those at the early stage of Condensed Core." Luo Qingyan walked up to Li Fan, saying, "Seems like the old fox is no match for the young fox."
"Han Qingzi has broad connections and holds the identity of a Pill Master. Since he can’t invite those in the mid-stage, I’m afraid he’ll invite quite a few at the early stage. Sister Luo should rest well today and prepare for tomorrow’s battle."
Luo Qingyan leaned closer to the seated Li Fan, looking into his eyes, saying sweetly, "Brother, you’re really ruthless, but sister likes it."
Having said that, she turned and left, her smile all the more radiant.
Half a month ago, Han Qingzi brushed Li Fan off with a subpar Gathering Spirit Pill, which might cost him dearly.
......
The next day.
In the West Sea, far from the land, a few figures stood above the sea surface, surrounded by nurous demon corpses.
"Why haven’t they arrived yet?" Luo Qingyan complained, "Waiting half a day is making one impatient."
"Before they arrive, keep slaying demons; it won’t waste ti." Li Fan responded. As he spoke, he suddenly sensed sothing and couldn’t help but smile, "They’re here."
A mont later, in the sky above the sea behind them, a group was swiftly flying in this direction and soon arrived in this sea area.
Li Fan turned around to look at the figures in the sky, led by none other than Han Qingzi.
Aside from him, Han Qingzi also brought five other Condensed Core cultivators, well prepared.
"It’s been a while, Young Hero Yang." Han Qingzi looked at Li Fan with an exquisitely bright smile, as if really friendly.
At this mont, looking at Li Fan, he did seem quite ’affectionate.’
"What brings Master Han here?" Li Fan looked up and asked.
"Naturally, I ca for Young Hero Yang." Han Qingzi smiled and said, "Last ti, I gave the hero a defective pill, feeling quite guilty and remorseful, so I had to co over to see you off."
"See off?" Li Fan asked curiously.
"To send Young Hero Yang away so I won’t feel guilty anymore, don’t you think so, Young Hero?" Han Qingzi’s laughter grew louder as Luo Qingyan’s figure flashed to the sky, her gaze looking down at Li Fan.
"Luo Qingyan, what’s the aning of this?" Li Fan asked.
"As a friend, I too will see you off, brother." Luo Qingyan laughed.
Han Qingzi glanced at Luo Qingyan, his smile appearing sowhat ’suggestive,’ intending to see each one off.
"Do it." As Han Qingzi’s words fell, the five Condensed Core cultivators lined up, their powerful Mana surged, instantly causing the sky over this sea to change.
Golden bells filled the sky, crashing down toward Li Fan and his group.
Stepping forward, ng Hong led his Golden Armored Soldiers with an overwhelming force to counter those falling golden bells.
Soon figures plumted down, charging straight for Li Fan; Han Qingzi remained standing still, but with his arms moved, a vast sea transford into a world of fire domain, his eyes burning with scorching flas.
In an instant, a massive Fire Domain Formation appeared in the sky above the sea, blocking out the sun, with lava and fire pouring from above into the sea, evaporating the water.
Luo Qingyan, also diving down, suddenly flicked her Thunder Whip toward one of the Condensed Core cultivators.
"Luo Qingyan, you’re seeking death." Han Qingzi’s eyes flared with flas, as the Condensed Core cultivator was well-prepared, quickly avoiding it.
"Boom..." The waves roared, a giant python surged from the sea, its enormous body spiraling toward a Condensed Core cultivator descending.
"Another demon?" Han Qingzi narrowed his eyes, the giant python was Liu Ji, who had recently entered the Fifth Realms.
A blinding golden light erupted, and the Soul-Attracting Bell instantly grew larger, shooting towards the sky at an incredible speed.
At that mont, another figure sprang forth, heading straight into the sky—it was Luo Qingyan, her Thunder Whip suddenly unfurling, whipping toward one of the Condensed Core cultivators.
The sea roared and raged as a colossal serpent burst from its surface, its massive form blocking the descending Condensed Core cultivator.
Then there was a blinding flash of golden light, in which the Soul-Attracting Bell suddenly magnified, soaring towards the sky.
The two demonic corpules who had been accompanying it before also appeared, charging at the fire barrier, while a giant rock serpent leaped out from below, lunging towards the Condensed Core cultivator
The great snake body of Liu Ji, who had recently entered the Fifth Realm.
A radiant golden light erupted, and the Soul-Attracting Bell suddenly enlarged, rushes to the sky, clashing with the barriers above.
Then, two flying swords appeared almost simultaneously with the Soul-Attracting Bell, but acted faster, piercing through the space as if traversing through it.
"Bang..."
The two Condensed Core cultivators’ heads burst, dying instantly, unable to even recover from the blow.
This is an achievent possible for a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator?
At that mont, Han Qingzi suddenly developed an ominous premonition; Luo Qingyan’s already inford him that they’ve lured him here to kill him.
Could it be that that Foundation Establishnt Cultivator is even stronger than him?
A thunderous voice echoed, "Old man, I shall refine you together." Fire rained down from the great formation in the sky, exuding an aura of annihilation.
anwhile, as Luo Qingyan dived down, the Thunder Whip in her hand suddenly lashed out at one of the Condensed Core cultivators.
"Boom..." Ocean waves surged, and suddenly a giant python burst through the surface, its massive body being Liu Ji’s, who had ascended to the Fifth Realms so ti ago, coiling towards the descending Condensed Core cultivator.
"Another demon?" Han Qingzi squinted, realizing the gigantic python was Liu Ji, who had entered into the Fifth Realms not long ago.
"Old fool, I’ll make sure to dispatch them all." Han Qingzi bellowed, and a torrent of flas fell down from the great Fire Domain Formation, radiating an aura of lethality.
At that mont, a brilliant golden light blood, and the Soul-Attracting Bell expanded suddenly, soaring into the sky.
Two flying swords appeared almost simultaneously with the Soul-Attracting Bell, but they surpassed it in their lethal speed, slicing through the space.
"Bang..."
The two Condensed Core cultivators’ minds had not yet recovered when the flying swords struck, with their heads exploding in an instant and killing them at once.
It was bewildering that a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator could accomplish such a feat.
At this mont, Han Qingzi suddenly felt a chilling premonition, realizing that Luo Qingyan had been honest with him, but their intention was to lure him here to kill.
Could it be that the Foundation Establishnt Cultivator was more formidable than he had judged?
Then a massive hand made of magma plumted from above, capable of reducing a person to nothingness.
