"Since you're new here, then you should know the rules!
Just now, Senior Brother Shen told you to get lost. Are you deaf or are you pretending not to hear? "The middle-aged man didn't speak. Instead, the skinny man next to him yelled.
"A mere early stage Core Formation cultivator dares to be so arrogant here? You must be tired of living!" A beautiful female cultivator next to the man snorted.
Han Li turned a deaf ear to this. He sat where he was and didn't move.
"Fellow cultivator, a wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him. There's no need to fight with someone.
With a temperament like this, the True Immortal will definitely look down on you. "
At this time, the simple and honest Youth named Meng Yungui walked to Han Li's side and pointed out something.
Intentionally or unintentionally, he placed himself between Han Li and the middle-aged man. The round-faced fatty and the other two people also stood next to the simple and honest Youth.
"Meng Yungui, if I were you, I wouldn't be so eager to help a stranger.
Don't think that just because you broke through to the late stage Core Formation, I won't dare to do anything to you. "The middle-aged man said in an unfriendly tone.
"Shen Biao, you and Lu Heng bullied the Meng Clan's disciples in the past. I've wanted to get even with you for a long time.
Today is a good opportunity. "Meng Yungui didn't back down.
"Tsk tsk … How impressive. Isn't this Young Master Meng?
What, you're meddling in other people's business? "At this time, another voice sounded.
Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and saw a handsome young man walking over with his arm around a female cultivator's slender waist. He was surrounded by more than ten people. The aura of a peak late stage Core Formation cultivator was unmistakable.
"Senior Brother Lu, you're finally here …" Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face lit up.
The atmosphere became tense. The disciples who didn't want to get involved stepped back and made way for the people involved. They looked like they were watching a good show.
When Han Li saw this, he rubbed his nose with a helpless expression.
He had just randomly found a place to sit, but he didn't expect that it would cause such a commotion.
The people accompanying the man surnamed Lu all had auras of Core Formation and above. Together with Shen Biao and the other two, they seemed to be quite a force to be reckoned with. Meanwhile, on Han Li's side, there were only Meng Yungui and his three companions.
The round-faced fatty and the other two people had slightly terrified expressions on their faces, but when they saw that Dream Clouds did not intend to retreat, they did not move.
Just as an unevenly matched battle was about to break out, another voice rang out, "What? Are you trying to bully me with numbers?
How about I join too, Senior Apprentice Brother Lu? "
The one who spoke was none other than Sun Buzheng, who had provoked Meng Yungui earlier. His figure flashed and he arrived next to Han Li. His body also emitted the aura of the late stage of Core Formation.
"Sun Buzheng, aren't you sworn enemies with Meng Yungui?
What? Are you here to meddle in other people's business? "Man Lu's voice turned cold.
"I'm not really meddling in other people's business!
We will deal with Meng Yungui and myself, but you are openly bullying the people of the Mengchi Country. How can I not care? "Sun Buzheng was not afraid at all and said with a smile.
Seeing this, Han Li's heart leaped slightly. He felt that this was getting interesting.
But then, he heard Meng Yungui's voice in his ear, "Fellow Daoist, we will take responsibility for this.
Later, don't fight in case you get hurt. "
"If you want to fight, then fight!"
"Hurry up and fight …"
"Haha, the bets are on. I bet on Lu Heng to win!"
The surrounding crowd was happy to watch the show and they all started to make a ruckus.
"Go!"
Lu Heng pushed away the beautiful woman next to him, raised one hand, and shouted.
Shen Biao and the others heard this and all took out their weapons and treasures, ready to attack Meng Yungui and the others.
Meng Yungui, Sun Buzheng, and the others also took out their treasures and shields, ready to fight.
At this moment, Han Li, who had been sitting cross-legged and motionless, suddenly flashed and appeared between the two sides. It was as if he had teleported, and his speed was unbelievably fast.
Under the astonished gazes of Meng Yungui and the others, he casually waved his sleeves, and the dozen or so people, including Shen Biao, felt as if they had collided with an invisible mountain, and all of them were sent flying backwards like they were riding on clouds. They crashed into the cliff in the distance, and fainted.
The crowd that was still making a ruckus just now felt as if they had been hit by a hammer. They were dumbfounded and the surroundings became silent.
Lu Heng still had one hand raised, and he looked at Han Li with eyes full of shock.
At this moment, he could no longer feel any aura from Han Li's body. It was as if the person standing in front of him was just an ordinary person.
Even the Nascent Soul disciples sitting at the entrance of the valley were shocked.
After a short silence, Meng Yungui seemed to suddenly think of something and was the first to react. He hurriedly bowed.
"Disciple Meng Yungui greets elder."
Then, with a crash, the surrounding thousands of people all knelt down.
Lu Heng's head was tightly pressed to the ground, and he did not dare to raise it. His forehead was already covered in cold sweat.
Han Li did not pay attention to him. Instead, he waved his sleeves and a gentle wind blew, causing Meng Yungui to unconsciously stand up. He slowly said, "My surname is Li. From now on, you will follow by my side and be my servant."
When the latter heard this, he was first startled, and then his face revealed a look of surprise. But soon, a trace of hesitation flashed on his face.
"If you have any worries in your heart, there is no harm in saying it." When Han Li saw this, he said so.
"Reporting to elder Li, I have a younger sister who has just turned eighteen and has just built her foundation … Can elder take her as a servant?" Meng Yungui said with some embarrassment.
"The Great Way is heartless, and one must walk alone. If you cannot cut off your worldly worries, you will not be able to truly pursue the supreme Great Way. Do you understand?" Han Li's face turned cold and said slowly.
"This … I understand.
But my younger sister is still young. If she is alone here, I am afraid … I know that my request is too much.
I am not blessed enough to serve elder … "Meng Yungui knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he quickly cupped his hands at Han Li and said.
When the surrounding people heard this, they simply could not believe it. There was actually someone who gave up the opportunity to become a True Immortal's servant?
It should be known that once a person became a True Immortal's servant, even if it was just a random gift from the True Immortal, it would be enough for them to gain endless benefits. Not to mention the opportunity to obtain the True Immortal's guidance, and the path of cultivation would be a hundred times smoother than others.
That person must be either crazy or stupid!
However, when Han Li heard this, his expression relaxed, and he said something that made the surrounding people's jaws drop.
"Although the Great Way is heartless, we cultivators are not plants. How many of us can truly forget emotions?
I will take you and your younger sister.
Also, help me choose eight people from these people. "
When Meng Yungui heard this, he instantly felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body trembled, and when he looked at Han Li, his gaze was filled with disbelief.
The surrounding people were like water dripping from a pot of boiling oil. They burst into an uproar, and they all started whispering to each other.
Almost everyone turned their gazes to Meng Yungui. Their eyes were filled with pleading, as if he had suddenly turned into a god who controlled the fate of all lives.
Once Han Li finished speaking, he sat down cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes to rest. It seemed like he really did not care about who Meng Yungui would choose.
"Meng Xiong …" Meng Yungui muttered to himself for a moment before he raised his hand and pointed at a person in front of him.
The round-faced fatty who had been by his side all this while had his face flushed red. He was so excited that he could not speak. His eyes were red, and there were already tears in them.
"Meng Xiong, bring Qian Qian to me.
Meng Yu, Meng Guang, Fang Yao … "He ordered the round-faced fatty before he called out six names in one go. Aside from the two other disciples of the Meng Family, there were also a few people who seemed to be on good terms with him.
The people whose names were called couldn't help but cry tears of joy as they walked behind Meng Yungui.
At this moment, Han Li opened his eyes and swept his gaze over the surroundings.
Aside from Meng Yungui's sister who was not outside, the rest of the people, including Meng Yungui, were four women and four men. They were all Core Formation cultivators.
Then, Meng Yungui walked in front of another person and called out the last name.
"Sun Buzheng …"
When the towering Youth heard his name come out of Meng Yungui's mouth, he almost couldn't believe it. He raised his head and looked at his former best friend, his face full of confusion.
"Sun Hao, the affairs of the country are not something I can control. There are many hidden secrets.
However, I have never changed the fact that I recognized you as my friend. "Meng Yungui cupped his hands at him.
Hearing this, Sun Buzheng's eyes instantly turned red. He laughed and scolded, "I changed my name a long time ago. Call me Sun Buzheng."
After the selection, Han Li did not say anything else. He brought Meng Yungui and the others to the Palace of Pu Ling to register.
There were thousands of people following behind them. It was obvious that they did not want to give up.
In reality, with Han Li's status and cultivation level, he could choose dozens or even hundreds of people to be his servants. However, he did not plan to do so.
The moment they walked out of the Palace of Pu Ling, a crisp voice called out, "Big brother."
A young girl with a delicate and pretty face, who still had a childish air about her, nimbly passed through the crowd. Like a little red sparrow, she flew to Meng Yungui's side and hugged his arm.
Behind him, the round-faced fat man also hurriedly followed.
"Elder Li, this is my sister … Meng Qian Qian.
Qian Qian, greet Elder Li. "Meng Yungui introduced, a little embarrassed.
"Qian Qian greets Elder Li."
When the young woman saw this, she hastily released her hand and deeply bowed to Han Li. Her large eyes carried a trace of curiosity.
Han Li saw a crescent-shaped jade pendant hanging on her waist. It seemed to be the same as Meng Yungui's. He nodded with a smile.
Looking at the young girl in front of him, he could not help but think of his little sister. A hint of gentleness that was difficult to detect flashed in the depths of his eyes.
This was also one of the reasons why he agreed to accept this pair of siblings.
"This Fire Spirit Ring can't be considered an immortal treasure. However, if you wear it, it will be very beneficial to those who cultivate fire-attribute skills. I'll give it to you." Han Li flipped his hand and took out a fiery red jade pendant and handed it to Meng Qian.
The latter was slightly stunned at first. Then, she hurriedly took it and thanked him repeatedly.
The girl immediately hung the jade pendant and the crescent-shaped jade pendant side by side. When she walked, they bumped into each other and let out a pleasant and crisp sound.
