Melee archer with maxed-out Douluo luck

Chapter 70, First Encounter and Vow, focuses on the real Han Li.

"ah"

A sharp female voice rang out in the basin where the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire was located.

Just then, Dugu Yan, who had just landed, screamed and stood on the open ground in a peculiar posture, with her left foot on the ground and her right ankle being held in someone's hand.

"Aren't you going to let go?"

Dugu Yan shouted, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. One of her hands was still on the edge of her skirt, and she looked at the black-haired boy in front of her with a slightly flushed face.

"Okay, but let's make this clear first: if you attack again, I won't hold back."

As Han Li spoke, he released his left hand, and Dugu Yan took two steps back before regaining her footing.

"No, Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Dugu Yan ignored Han Li and instead turned to look at her grandfather, who had an innocent expression, with a face full of shame and anger.

Without even thinking, she knew it was her grandfather who was behind it.

Who would do that? Falling from a great height and placing their granddaughter right in front of someone else, and she instinctively launched an attack, leading to the situation just now. She now feels incredibly embarrassed.

"Hmm? Yan Yan, what's wrong?"

Dugu Bo naturally pretended to be stupid, saying that he certainly knew what his granddaughter meant, but how could he dare to admit it?

His original intention was to see how the two would react in close proximity, since he had almost bumped into Dugu Yan's grandmother when he turned around back then, which led to the subsequent events.

But to his surprise, when his granddaughter landed in front of him, Han Li's expression didn't change at all. Instead, Yan Yan kicked her away with a bang.

Fortunately, Han Li didn't hit him too hard, and it was also fortunate that he had his granddaughter change her clothes before leaving the house; otherwise, he wouldn't know how he would have handled the situation.

Taking advantage of the moment when Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan were playfully fighting, Han Li took a closer look at Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan has short, dark purple hair, a beautiful face, and looks very heroic. Combined with her green eyes, she looks quite strange.

Of course, what impressed Han Li the most was definitely her legs. They were very white and straight. Although he wasn't one of those perverted gentlemen who thought everything was edible, he still thought it was okay to give them a thumbs up.

In addition, her waist looks very thin, which perfectly accentuates her figure. It can only be said that her body proportions are perfect. She may not be considered stunningly beautiful, but she has a kind of bewitching charm.

Alas, I was wrong about Brother Xiao Yan in my past life. I shouldn't have looked down on (envied) him.

What? He also called himself Xiao Yan a few days ago? Oh well, never mind. He could only say he could understand.

Meanwhile, under Dugu Yan's relentless pressure, Dugu Bo made many promises, which finally convinced Miss Dugu to let him go.

As a result, Dugu Yan turned around and saw Han Li still staring at her. She couldn't help but feel ashamed and indignant, and said, "What are you looking at? Still looking? Is she pretty?"

"It's alright, you're quite good-looking. Besides, you attacked first, I was just defending myself." Han Li met her gaze and replied calmly.

Upon hearing Han Li's answer, Dugu Yan was taken aback, seemingly not expecting such a response.

The key point is that Han Li really didn't do anything; he just blocked the attack.

Dugu Yan also knew that he hadn't actually seen anything, since she was wearing safety shorts.

Moreover, she did initiate the attack just now, and now that the other party hasn't said anything and their response is unremarkable, what else can she do?

"Okay, I'll take that as a compliment. Also, you're good-looking too."

Dugu Yan could only pretend nothing had happened and replied sullenly.

"Yes, I actually feel the same way," Han Li nodded in agreement.

"You're quite amusing. Are you really only seven years old, just like Grandpa said?" Dugu Yan teased Han Li, who was speaking with a straight face.

"By the way, I still don't know your name? My name is Dugu Yan."

After making the joke, Dugu Yan belatedly realized that she didn't seem to know the other person's name.

"My name is Han Li, and to be precise, I am seven and a half years old," Han Li corrected.

"Is there a difference?" Dugu Yan didn't understand his pointless obsession with this.

"Yes, there is a big difference. This is a way of counting in remembrance of a deceased friend in my memory."

"I also think that six months is enough time for me to improve my level further."

Han Li spoke as if it were the most natural thing in the world, and considering that his current rank was higher than hers, Dugu Yan was momentarily speechless.

"Are you envious?" Han Li suddenly asked.

"envious."

Dugu Yan was not the pretentious type of person. When she heard his words, she was taken aback at first, but then realized that he was talking about cultivation speed, and answered him directly.

"Then let's swear by our martial spirits. Hmm, considering that our martial spirits will evolve later, let's also add the name of your Dugu family," Han Li said to the girl in front of him after a moment's thought.

"Huh? What martial soul evolution? And why do I need to swear an oath with my martial soul? What oath? And why is the Dugu family's name being involved?"

Dugu Yan frowned, suppressing her instinctive displeasure, and looked at Han Li with a puzzled expression.

Han Li frowned upon hearing her words. He glanced at Dugu Bo, but considering that he had already made an oath and probably hadn't said some things, he turned his gaze to Guang Ling.

Guangling coughed slightly, a little embarrassed: "Xiao Li, we came in a bit of a rush, and she only asked to come along at the last minute, so I haven't had a chance to explain to her yet."

So you hadn't said it yet? No wonder Dugu Yan reacted this way.

Over the next five minutes, Han Li explained the agreement he had made with Dugu Bo to the new member, and while Dugu Yan was still dazed, he explained what had happened before.

"So, you understand now, right?"

Han Li looked at Dugu Yan, who nodded, still somewhat confused.

"Okay, now that you understand, let's make a vow for a better relationship in the future."

Han Li maintained a strictly businesslike demeanor; he wouldn't make an exception for Dugu Yan just because she was a girl.

Hearing his words, Dugu Yan didn't think there was anything wrong with them. She subconsciously turned to look at Dugu Bo, wanting to ask for his opinion.

Actually, she still feels like she's living in a dream, and she always feels that the world is not quite the same as the one she knew before.

Dugu Bo nodded slightly to her, as if to confirm her thoughts.

With a pillar of support, Dugu Yan no longer hesitated. She believed that her grandfather would not harm her. Immediately, she made a martial soul oath as required by Han Li, and of course, she did not forget to include the name of her family.

Only after she finished her vow did Han Li nod in satisfaction. For the time being, this action was sufficient for Douluo.

There was nothing he could do. His beloved son hadn't shown up again since he first contacted him. Otherwise, he could have contacted him and worked together on a version of the Heavenly Oath of Douluo Continent. For now, he could only make do with what he had.

"Great, Sister Yan, welcome to the team. You're one of us now."

Han Li suddenly seemed like a different person, smiling warmly at Dugu Yan and extending his right hand.

A handshake is also a common greeting and gesture of goodwill among nobles and high-ranking officials in the Heavenly Dou region.

"Yes, we're on the same side."

Dugu Yan reached out and shook his hand lightly. Watching him skillfully switch expressions, completely different from before, she was somewhat at a loss.

"Little girl, you'll get used to it."

Guangling smiled and winked at her. So far, he was quite satisfied with Dugu Yan's performance; it suited his taste, and he had given up his previous idea of ​​deliberately causing trouble.
