A mortal cultivating immortality can nurture spirit beasts.

Several miles away from the market town of Huangfeng Valley, the short, stout young man who had been arguing with the stall owner was pacing anxiously, while four cultivators lay dead beside him.

"Strange, I clearly agreed to meet Liu Qing here, why hasn't he shown up yet?"

"Did Liu Qing realize this was a trap, so she simply didn't come?"

A fat man with a face full of scars suddenly stepped forward. Upon seeing him, the short, stout young man hurriedly said respectfully, "Senior Xu, it is my shame to admit that back then, due to a moment of carelessness, that fellow Liu Qing stole the token and escaped from the Liu family, thus ruining the future of my Liu family. If it weren't for that, how could my Liu family have ended up in this state today?"

This fat man with a face full of scars was actually a Foundation Establishment cultivator. He said in a deep voice, "That's for sure. If you can offer that token to our Tianxing Sect now, you can immediately exchange it for a large amount of cultivation resources. Putting aside everything else, it's no problem for your Liu family to have a few more Foundation Establishment cultivators. At that time, your Liu family will have a foothold and won't be looked down upon like it is now."

The short, stout young man sighed upon hearing this. He had waited so long and Liu Qing hadn't come, so it was clear he wouldn't be coming back. Little did he know, the Liu Qing he was waiting for had already been killed by Lin He.

The short, stout young man looked at the four cultivators lying on the ground and said with a pained expression, "Although Liu Qing didn't come, he still attracted these four unlucky guys. So it wasn't a wasted trip. Senior Xu, you killed these four people, so these spoils should belong to you."

Senior Xu snorted coldly and said, "Of course, I can't just come all this way for nothing. By the way, remember, if Liu Qing contacts you, you must notify me immediately."

"Of course, of course. The fact that my Liu family is still standing today is all thanks to Senior Xu. I know what to do."

Senior Xu nodded, collected the four people's storage bags, threw out four fireballs to destroy the evidence, and then took out a flying sword magic weapon, carrying the short, fat youth towards the direction of Yuanwu Kingdom.

. . .

On the other side, Lin He followed Han Li at a leisurely pace in his flying spirit boat. Han Li was also very cautious. As soon as he left the market, he flew away from the Taiyue Mountains. It took him three or four days to fly before heading towards Huangfeng Valley.

It was already late, so Han Li went into a secluded stone cave to rest, preparing to travel back to Yellow Maple Valley the next day. Lin He, seeing this, couldn't help but secretly guess...

"Han Li must have gained something from this trip, otherwise he wouldn't have been so cautious. However, things like Heavenly Thunder Seeds and Talisman Treasures are probably not easy to come by. He probably just exchanged a few top-tier magic artifacts and some high-level talismans."

The main character had not yet appeared, but Lin He seemed very patient. He used the Qi Concealment Technique to hide his aura so that Han Li would not notice him. After all, the two of them were at the eleventh level of Qi Refining, and there was not a big difference in their cultivation levels.

Time flew by and it was already past midnight when Lin He suddenly heard a noise. It was Senior Brother Lu and Senior Sister Chen. At this moment, Senior Sister Chen was bound by Senior Brother Lu's magic and could not move. She could only watch helplessly as Senior Brother Lu took her outside the stone cave.

"Junior sister, why look at me like that? Actually, I didn't want to kill you either, but unfortunately, that Dong girl is really unruly. She insisted that I sever ties with you before she would associate with me."

Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Chen glared at Senior Brother Lu with a face full of resentment and venom. The depth of her hatred sent a chill down Senior Brother Lu's spine. He immediately said...

"I knew my junior sister would be very angry, which is why I had to kill you. You are the young lady of the Chen family. If you were to use the Chen family's power to take revenge on me, I wouldn't be able to handle it. But before I die, I will also fulfill my junior sister's long-cherished wish. Here, take this pill."

Junior Sister Chen was unable to resist at all. A pill was stuffed into her mouth, and she seemed to be waiting for the pill to take effect. Senior Brother Lu did not make any other moves. Instead, he took Senior Sister Chen's storage bag, searched inside for a while, and finally found the Foundation Establishment Pill. He couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Very good. I knew that my junior sister would keep this Foundation Establishment Pill until she had mastered the basic cultivation technique. It's not a waste to leave it to me now. With these two Foundation Establishment Pills, my chances of establishing my foundation are much greater."

As soon as Senior Brother Lu finished speaking, he noticed that Senior Sister Chen's eyes were no longer filled with resentment, but rather with a dazed look. He immediately knew that the pill had taken effect. He chuckled, his eyes gleaming with lust, and he even began to loosen his belt.

Lin He glanced subconsciously in the direction of the stone cave. Han Li, who was hiding inside, had been silent until now, showing no intention of playing the hero. However, when he heard that there were two Foundation Establishment Pills, his breathing became somewhat disordered, clearly indicating that he was tempted.

"I see. It must have been around this time that Senior Brother Lu noticed it."

As expected, Senior Brother Lu pretended to be anxious, but in fact he was trying to lull his opponent into a false sense of security. He had already secretly released a green rope to entangle his opponent. Fortunately, Han Li reacted quickly enough to prevent Senior Brother Lu from succeeding. However, this also exposed Han Li's figure, and he engaged in a fierce battle with Senior Brother Lu.

After a brief exchange, the two sides engaged in a war of attrition. Senior Brother Lu activated the Azure Dragon Flag, transforming into an azure dragon, while Han Li unexpectedly found a top-tier magic weapon resembling a shield in the Yellow Maple Valley market. Under the shield's cover, he began to activate his small sword talisman to fight against the azure dragon.

Both sides used their own methods. Han Li even took out a mid-grade spirit stone to replenish his mana, and then he even swallowed spirit herbs to restore his mana. Under these series of methods, Senior Brother Lu was finally killed by the gray sword light in despair.

Han Li was overjoyed, as he was about to obtain the two Foundation Establishment Pills. However, just as he was about to reap the rewards of his victory, five enormous fireballs suddenly flew out and headed straight for him.

Han Li was startled, not expecting there to be a fourth person here. At this moment, his magic power was almost exhausted, and his small sword talisman was also depleted. Seeing this, he quickly used the Luo Yan Step to dodge, and then ran away without looking back.

He was in poor condition and had no choice but to flee. As for that Senior Sister Chen, he was too busy taking care of himself to care about her.

Han Li's decisiveness surprised Lin He, who nodded in agreement and then ignored him, walking over to Senior Brother Lu and putting the two Foundation Establishment Pills, the Azure Dragon Flag, the Azure Rope, and other magical artifacts into his storage bag. As for the storage bag, he naturally couldn't take it with him, so he casually blasted a pit and buried it deep inside, and also cremated Senior Brother Lu's body.

After doing all this, Lin He felt a fragrant breeze coming from behind him, followed by a naked body wrapping around him like a water snake, making it impossible for him to break free. Lin He felt something was wrong with his body, muttered a sentence, and then gave up resisting, immersing himself completely in the experience.

"Senior Sister Chen, no!"
