The transmigrated villain wants to escape Feng Aotian's hellish situation.

It was this gust of wind that made the three people behind the man in the long robe tremble.

Some people took a half step back, some activated their spiritual power, and some even placed their hands on the weapons at their waists, as if they were wary of something.

The man in the long robe who was in the lead glanced at them, which finally calmed the three restless people down.

At this moment, the leading man took out something—a drop of golden blood burning with flames. A clear, crisp cry could be faintly heard, and the scorching wind disappeared the instant the blood appeared.

The next second, the golden blood transformed into a stream of light and burrowed into the depths of the desolate grave.

After that, there was no more movement in the desolate graveyard. The four of them did not linger and rushed directly towards Blood Spirit Cliff.

...........

When Qin Yangjun woke up again, he saw an unfamiliar ceiling, heard a noisy commotion, and smelled faint aromas of food. He immediately guessed that he was in an inn in the middle of nowhere.

Upon waking up, Qin Yangjun clenched his hands, a hint of surprise on his face.

He originally thought his physical condition would be terrible, but to his surprise, his physical condition was excellent. His body was full of spiritual energy, without any hidden injuries, and his body didn't even feel sore.

"How long have I slept?"

"About a day and a night, I only woke up recently."

Li Mohai leaned against the window, idly glancing at the passersby below. He seemed unsurprised that Qin Yangjun could wake up so quickly, and his emotions did not fluctuate much.

"A day and a night? That's so short..."

While surprised, Qin Yangjun also had some doubts. The clash between Yin and Yang energies was no minor symptom; it could have killed him. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he wouldn't be able to recover in such a short time.

What exactly happened to my body that allowed me to recover so quickly without any lasting effects?

"You saved me?"

Qin Yangjun looked at Li Mohai with suspicion, and Li Mohai also turned his gaze away with suspicion.

For a moment, the two stared at each other blankly. Li Mohai was puzzled; it was clearly Qin Yangjun who had dealt with the Blood Asura, so why was it being said now?

I saved him; surely he wouldn't still try to hide his abilities at this point?

I guess I was overthinking it; that's not what he was asking...

"Uncle Zhao brought us out. As for your junior sister, she's in another private room. Uncle Zhao checked on her and she should be fine."

As he spoke, Li Mohai flipped his wrist, and a storage bag appeared in his hand. He then tossed the storage bag to Qin Yangjun.

"Thank you for this. This is the reward I promised. You did a lot of work this time, not only killing Blood Asura but also saving my life. I suppose you used the life-saving methods your sister gave you."

Qin Yangjun used his divine sense to probe the storage bag after receiving it.

A golden secret manual lay quietly inside. After a brief examination, it was discovered that this was the cultivation method for the Silver Flower technique within the Ascension Art.

However, he hasn't even mastered the art of drawing lead yet, so there's no rush.

The remaining two fruits were what he needed.

With the Dao Yuan Fruit, Qin Yangjun was able to enter the path of cultivation and produce lead flowers.

"Originally, I was going to give you some extra compensation, but at our level, there's not much we can offer that would impress the other party. I can't offer those things right now, so I can only give you a promise."

After speaking, Li Mohai looked at Qin Yangjun with a serious expression.

"From now on, you are my brother, Li Mohai. If you ever need anything, just let me know, and I will definitely come to your aid!"

Chapter 131 Li Mohai's Friendship

Seeing Li Mohai's serious expression, Qin Yangjun remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he couldn't help but start to have doubts.

Li Mohai is a deep thinker, but he doesn't like to scheme against others, otherwise he wouldn't have made friends with someone as straightforward as Zhao Qinghu.

Everyone says that Qin Yangjun is very cunning, so logically, I should be the type of person he dislikes the most. I never expected him to say something like this.

There's a problem...

"Brother Li, we are all intelligent people, why not speak frankly and openly?"

Li Mohai smiled, got up from the window, walked to the table in the center of the room, and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Indeed, the old man's idea played a part, but it was mostly my own decision. My old man... ah! He is also my master, that's what I'm used to calling him."

"He thinks highly of you, so he wants me to get to know you better. Maybe it's because your sister broke through to the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, or maybe he thinks you are a person with great fortune. Anyway, according to him, it will be beneficial to befriend you in the future."

"However, none of this matters to me. I am not the kind of person who curries favor with the powerful, and I believe more in my own hands than in the luck of others. Therefore, even the old man cannot sway my opinion."

Li Mohai paused at this point, then looked at Qin Yangjun with extremely sincere eyes.

"Back at Blood Spirit Cliff, you could have abandoned me and run away, but you didn't. Not only that, you even used the trump card my sister gave you..."

At this point, Li Mohai let out a long sigh, turned to look at the sky outside the window, his eyes seemingly lost in memories.

"This world is inherently deceitful, and everyone lives behind a 'mask.' Some people even pretend when facing their own family. Only when faced with life and death can a person's true character be revealed. In that situation, you were still willing to save me and keep your promise. For that alone, you are worth befriending!"

Li Mohai raised his teacup towards Qin Yangjun, as if offering a toast.

Seeing Li Mohai's sincere expression, Qin Yangjun was at a loss for words.

He stayed because of the objective factor of Changsun Youyou, but the main reason was that the sky there was blocked by the Demon Blood Black Lotus, so he couldn't escape and had to fight desperately.

Li Mohai probably didn't realize this, otherwise he wouldn't have thought that way.

As for the methods left behind by his sister... yes, there are. It was a wisp of divine thought that she gave him after she came out of the Ancient Spirit Ruins.

But it wasn't to the point of death...

That divine thought wasn't triggered at all.

However, Qin Yangjun was quite surprised to gain Li Mohai's friendship in this way.

Holy Spirit Mountain is a top power in the Eastern Continent. Although Yuqian Sect is no weaker than Holy Spirit Mountain, its foundation is in the Great Yu Continent, and it is too far away to exert influence in the Eastern Continent.

If Li Mohai helps him in the future, it will be easier for him to move around. And most importantly, he has a grudge against a certain powerful force in the upper realm. It would be good to be on good terms with them now.

Thinking of this, Qin Yangjun walked to the table and picked up his teacup.

"In that case, I'll consider you my friend."

The two took a sip of tea, and Li Mohai handed Qin Yangjun a token.

"This is my Holy Spirit Mountain communication token. You can contact me anytime unless there are special circumstances."

Qin Yangjun accepted the token.

He then handed Li Mohai a token from the Yuqian Sect.

"Reciprocity is key; friendship is reciprocal."

Li Mohai snapped out of his daze, smiled, and accepted the token.

"So, what are your plans next?"

Qin Yangjun put away the Holy Spirit Mountain token and casually asked a question.

"Back at Holy Spirit Mountain, the corrosive power of that Demon Blood Black Lotus is very strong. Uncle Zhao and I were both affected. Don't be fooled by my current state of being fine; it's only because I'm being kept alive by the pills. If it's not removed in time, we'll probably meet again on my grave."

Actually, Li Mohai wanted to invite Qin Yangjun to visit Shengling Mountain, but after thinking about it, he decided against it.

People with deep minds tend to have many thoughts. Currently, all the major powers in the Eastern Continent are interested in the secrets of Qin Yangjun. Qin Yangjun himself is aware of this. Although he is not interested in those secrets, he is afraid that Qin Yangjun will overthink things, so he has suppressed the idea of ​​inviting Qin Yangjun.

Friendships are built over time, not through a few words.

"Alright, Brother Qin, now that the reward has been delivered, I'll be taking my leave."

As Li Mohai reached the door, he seemed to remember something and stopped.

"Oh, right, there are a few things I forgot to tell you. The people from the Divine Radiance Flame Kingdom are looking for you."

Qin Yangjun frowned.

Is it strange that you're looking for me?

Since the incident in Tianyuan City, all the major powers in the Eastern Continent have been looking for him.

"No, no, no, I wouldn't tell you if it were someone from the kingdom looking for you. The person looking for you is a bit special; you should have heard of her name, Helian Yazhi."

"It's her..."

How come we've met before?

"We had a chance encounter."

“A single meeting...that’s strange. Let me tell you, this woman is an oddball. She’s unassuming and likes to study strange and unusual things.”

“I’ve met her a few times. That woman is as cold as ice and has no human warmth at all. If it weren’t for her body temperature and spiritual power, I would suspect that she is a puppet made of parts. She usually doesn’t get involved in the affairs of the dynasty. She’s probably looking for you because she has something private to do.”

Hearing this, Qin Yangjun became even more puzzled.

Private matters? What private matters could there be? They've only met once. Qin Yangjun didn't think there was any entanglement between them.

She was only interested in Changsun Youyou's myriad transformations, so she should have been looking for Changsun Youyou, not herself.

I won't help her persuade Changsun Youyou to sell Wanhua, and that woman isn't the kind of person who beats around the bush.

So why did she contact me?

Li Mohai didn't have much time; he needed to go back to heal his injuries. So, regardless of whether Qin Yangjun was listening or not, he continued speaking to himself:

"The second thing is that the spiritual energy tides in the Endless Sea have completely ended. Without the interference of the spiritual energy tides, you probably already know about the teleportation array between the two continents. If you want to go back, I can help you."

"No need for Brother Li to worry, I would like to stay in Dongzhou for a while longer."

Upon hearing these words, Li Mohai was slightly taken aback.

First Tianyuan City, then the Deep Sea Dragon Tomb—because of these events, he's now in the public eye. Given his current situation, shouldn't he return to the Yuqian Sect first...?

Li Mohai's expression suddenly turned somewhat unpleasant.

Damn it, the wound is starting to hurt.

The effects of the elixir seemed to be waning, and the poisonous blood was beginning to attack his meridians.

"In that case, Uncle Zhao and I will take our leave."

"Then we'll meet again someday."
