Can Chapter 211 be broadcast?

"No...it's okay..."

Han Li scratched his head and smiled sheepishly: "I just... I just wanted to come and see Brother Li, and also... ask you some questions about cultivation."

Over the past period of time, Han Li had been completely impressed by Li Zhe's unfathomable strength and seemingly omniscient knowledge.

He knew very well that the seemingly ordinary man in front of him was definitely a peerless master hidden among mortals.

Every conversation with him is enlightening and I benefit greatly from it.

"Speak," Li Zhe mumbled between bites of braised beef.

"Yes...that's how it is." A troubled look appeared on Han Li's face. "I've recently hit a bottleneck in my cultivation again. I'm at the peak of the thirteenth level of Qi Refining and I still can't break through."

"And...and I have a feeling that someone is secretly watching me from inside the door..."

"As expected." Li Zhe's reply was as calm and collected as ever. "You've been in the limelight lately, so naturally you've attracted some flies to covet you."

He paused, swallowed the last piece of braised beef, and wiped his mouth.

"As for your bottleneck... it's not that your cultivation level is insufficient, but that your killing intent is too strong."

"Killing intent?" Han Li was taken aback.

“That’s right.” Li Zhe nodded, a sharp glint flashing in his deep eyes. “Although you have mediocre talent, you are resilient and have an iron will, which is a good thing.”

"But too much rigidity leads to breakage. Your path is too sharp, and too... lonely."

"You only know how to move forward, but you forget to look back."

"You only think about how to become stronger, but you ignore the people around you who truly care about you."

"Your sword can cut through all obstacles, but it cannot cut through... the obsessions and inner demons within you."

These words struck Han Li's heart like a morning bell and an evening drum.

He stood there, stunned, as if struck by lightning, speechless for a long time.

"Then... what should I do?" After a long while, he asked in a hoarse voice.

“It’s very simple.” Li Zhe looked at him and slowly uttered two words.

"lay down."

"lay down?"

“Yes, let it go.” Li Zhe nodded. “Let go of the hatred in your heart, let go of your obsession with power, feel the warmth of this world, see the scenery you’ve overlooked, go…”

"Um……

"Find someone you like and have a relationship."

"Talking...talking about love?!" Han Li's face instantly turned bright red. "What...what does this have to do with cultivation?"

“It’s a huge deal.” Li Zhe smiled mysteriously. “The balance of Yin and Yang, the harmony of dragon and tiger, don’t you understand? When you can truly fall for a woman, care about her, and… risk everything for her, then your bottleneck will naturally be broken.”

This advice, full of "philosophical" and "witty remarks," completely shut down Han Li's already somewhat chaotic mind.

Looking at this seemingly serious but actually nonsensical "expert" in front of him, he was momentarily at a loss for words.

Li Zhe, on the other hand, had already turned his gaze to the vibrant medicinal garden outside the window.

And... deep within the herb garden, there is that mysterious bamboo house shrouded in mist year-round.

"Speaking of which, I should go and see my 'old friend'."

He stood up, stretched, and a hopeful smile appeared on his face.

"Perfect timing, it's about time... to collect some 'interest'."

……

The "interest" that Li Zhe mentioned was naturally the "Nine-Turn Golden Pill," which was enough to drive any Qi Refining cultivator crazy.

Judging by the time, it's almost time for the meeting he and Yao Chen agreed on.

It's time to see if that mysterious alchemy master has truly lived up to his "investment." He bid farewell to Han Li, who was still stuck in the same place, questioning his existence.

Li Zhe walked smoothly towards the mist-shrouded valley behind the mountain.

Now, he knows the terrain of the Azure Phoenix Sect like the back of his hand.

Those natural magic arrays that seemed deceptive to outsiders were like the artificial hills and streams in his own backyard, flowing through him freely without any hindrance.

Soon, the bamboo house filled with the fragrance of herbs appeared before his eyes.

However, before he could even get close...

A strange fragrance, filled with a sense of romance and ambiguity, drifted into his nostrils on the mountain breeze.

This fragrance was completely different from the usual medicinal scent that Yao Chen had, which was full of "health preservation" and "asceticism".

It carries a hint of sweetness and allure, as if it can arouse the most primal desires in people's hearts, making them feel restless and thirsty upon smelling it.

"Huh? What the hell?"

Li Zhe's brows furrowed slightly.

He could clearly sense that within this fragrance was a very subtle, yet incredibly pure...

Spiritual energy fluctuations.

Moreover, he was very familiar with the properties of this spiritual energy fluctuation.

It is full of the qualities of "yin" and "softness".

It is strikingly similar to the "Sloth Witch" he once encountered on his original Blue Star.

However, compared to the Sloth Witch's debuff, which was filled with "negative energy" and "mental pollution," this spiritual power was even more...

A mess.

A playful smile curved the corners of Li Zhe's mouth.

It seems an "uninvited guest" has arrived in Yao Chen's valley.

He did not reveal himself immediately, but instead silently concealed all his presence.

Like a cheetah blending into the darkness, it slowly crept towards the bamboo house.

The closer you get, the stronger the enchanting fragrance becomes.

Even the air itself began to resonate with a suppressed sense of pain.

"Please...please be gentle..."

A woman's voice, so charming and alluring it seemed to drip with sweetness, drifted intermittently from inside the bamboo house.

"Hmph! You vixen! Don't even think about using your seductive tricks to bewitch me! I... I have a firm Dao heart, how could I... how could I be tempted by a witch like you!"

Immediately following was Yao Chen's breathing, which was full of "righteous indignation" yet also carried a hint of obvious weakness.

"I...I'm healing you...healing your wounds!"
"Yes, it's for healing! The poison of 'Hehuan San' in your body can only be expelled by my extremely yang and vigorous 'Pure Yang True Fire'!"

"Hehehe..." The woman let out a silvery laugh, her voice full of allure, "Your method of 'healing' is truly... unique."

"Stop...stop talking nonsense! Concentrate your mind and calm your spirit! Focus your energy and guard your oneness!"

"yes………"

Hearing the conversation inside the bamboo house, Li Zhe's lips twitched.

He quietly approached the window of the bamboo house and peered inside.

Inside the simple bamboo hut, a scene filled with the atmosphere of "academic discussion" was unfolding...

Horrifying scene.
