Seeing Han Li's disbelief, Fairy Zi Ling didn't explain anything. Instead, she glanced at Qu Hun and said with a smile:
"This 'Senior Qu' is the incarnation of Senior!"
As soon as the woman said these words, Han Li's figure froze, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. After staring at the woman for a while, he asked coldly:
"How did Miss Zi Ling know?"
"Hehe! Senior, don't be surprised. This sect also has a method for cultivating clones. It's just that it costs too much and the success rate of the sacrifice is too low, so few people in the sect practice it. However, senior's clone is very strange.
Ah! Ordinary clones must be much lower in cultivation than the cultivators, but Senior Han's clone has entered the early stage of pill formation at the same time as his predecessor. This is really strange!" Fairy Zi Ling chuckled, her bright eyes flowing.
.
"Since fellow Taoist Zi Ling has seen it, Han has nothing to hide. But why aren't the other two fellow Taoists here?" Han Li admitted with a calm expression, then looked around and asked.
For him, it was only a matter of time before someone discovered Qu Hun's identity, and there was nothing surprising about it.
"Senior, please take a seat! The two senior sisters are going to Fangshi to buy some things, and by the way, they want to buy a cave in Tianxing City for a long stay." The girl gracefully asked Han Li to sit down and explained softly.
"Why, the three fellow Taoists don't plan to return to Miaoyin Sect?" Han Li frowned and asked a little puzzled after sitting down.
"Return to the Miaoyin Sect? How dare we sisters! Since we have made a big enmity with the people of Jiyin Island, and the two elders in the sect have betrayed the past, if we go back, we will not fall into the hands of those demons again, or
It will be annexed by other small and medium-sized forces. We have decided to temporarily relocate the Miaoyin Sect to Tianxing City. Anyway, our sect still has some savings over the years." Fairy Ziling sighed and said with a wry smile.
"Oh!" Han Li nodded silently without saying anything.
He is not the same person as the other party, so naturally he will not act overly enthusiastic.
Fairy Purple Spirit did not care about Han Li's reaction. Instead, she stood up and poured Han Li a cup of fragrant tea, and then said reservedly:
"When our sisters were escaping from the interception of the corpse-refining people, they happened to see Senior Zhi from a distance also subduing the corpse-refining corpses, so we knew that seniors were also fine. Later, we heard from Senior Sister Fan that seniors only came to help because of Tian Lei Bamboo. The little girl said
I asked Senior Sister Fan to send out the transmission talisman and ask the seniors to come here and speak."
The Purple Spirit Fairy briefly explained the whole story.
"The transmission notes say that fellow Taoist Zi Ling still has Heavenly Thunder Bamboo in his hand. Is this true? Wasn't this thing robbed by the people from Jiyin Island?" Han Li was not interested in going around in circles anymore, so he directly asked his last question.
issue concerned.
Hearing Han Li's straight-to-the-point question, a smile flashed in Fairy Purple Spirit's big eyes, and she answered in a smooth and melodious voice:
"Senior is so quick to talk, and the Purple Spirit is no secret. Back then, our Miaoyin Sect received not one piece of Heavenly Thunder Bamboo from the successor of that small sect, but two. But in order to sell it for a higher price, my mother
I split the bamboo into two and took away only the upper half, leaving the root section with me. If senior wants it, I can give this to Senior Han."
Han Li was overjoyed, but there was no excitement on his face. Instead, he looked at the woman with deep meaning, and then asked in a deep voice:
"Here? Why do Miss Zi Ling say these useless words? Since my Taoist friend used this thing to invite me here, just tell me what conditions you have. I will think about it myself!"
Fairy Ziling was slightly startled after hearing this, her smile gradually faded away, and after pondering for a while, she said seriously:
"Actually, the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo is useless to the current Miaoyin Sect. Based on the kindness of the seniors last time, it is appropriate to give it to the seniors. But our sect is undergoing great changes now, and the strength of the juniors and others can basically support it.
We cannot afford a sect as big as the Miaoyin Sect. Therefore, I want to hire my senior as the guest elder of our sect with the price of this bamboo and three hundred spiritual stones per year. I hope your senior will not refuse!"
"Elder Guest?" Han Li's expression changed slightly.
He never expected that the other party would make such a request.
"In addition to the conditions mentioned above, if senior needs an excellent dual cultivation furnace for practicing, we can also select an outstanding female disciple and give it to senior as a concubine." Fairy Ziling added generously.
.
This condition did not make Han Li show any strange expression.
With the assistance of various spiritual pills, he simply looked down upon the little spiritual power gained through dual cultivation.
But Tianleizhu is different. It is very likely that after passing this village, there will be no such store.
So after thinking about it, Han Li said carefully:
"This condition is not acceptable! Han has long been accustomed to living alone and cannot stand the constraints of the sect. Fellow Taoist Zi Ling should change the condition. Otherwise, I am willing to pay 30% more than the market price for the spirit stone.
How about buying this thing?"
"Senior is really joking. There is no market price for top-level materials such as the three sacred trees. If it falls into the hands of monks who cannot use it, it is worthless. But in the eyes of monks who practice wood-attribute techniques,
It's probably a priceless treasure again." Purple Spirit Fairy was not surprised by Han Li's rejection. Instead, she rejected Han Li's proposal to buy it with spirit stones with a smile on her face.
Han Li frowned. It seemed that this woman knew that she wanted this thing very much and would not let it go easily.
This feeling of being threatened by someone's vitals made him very uncomfortable.
However, he would never join the Miaoyin Sect and let the other party control him just for the sake of Heavenly Thunder Bamboo.
Just when Han Li was thinking about giving up the Thunder Bamboo and looking for other materials to refine the magic weapon, the girl opposite made another compromise suggestion.
"Senior, since you don't want to be restrained, then you can be the nominal elder of our sect! You can enjoy the treatment of an elder without actually accepting the orders of the sect leader. And our sect can at least use the name of the elder's alchemy monk.
The head is used for self-protection. I wonder if this is the case, what do you think, senior?"
"Nominal elder?" After hearing Fairy Zi Ling's words without fireworks, Han Li showed a look of astonishment.
"If the Miaoyin Sect encounters a formidable enemy, I don't have to take action?" He asked a little doubtfully, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"If our sect really encounters any trouble or really needs the help of seniors, seniors can decide whether to agree or not, and the sisters and I will thank you again afterwards!" This woman seemed to have considered this matter before, without any hesitation.
said.
"Fellow Taoist Zi Ling! If I'm not wrong, there are a few people who just want me as a pill-forming monk to strengthen the reputation of the Miaoyin Sect. Don't let the Miaoyin Sect be used by some forces with bad intentions to take advantage of the weakest moment.
Come here to cause trouble. And when you spread the news, as long as I don't deny it openly, that's fine." Han Li lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and asked slowly.
"Senior Han is right! When the time comes, we will also describe the clone of our senior as a monk in the Dan Formation stage. This will make up for the extremely bad consequences caused by the betrayal of the two elders Zhao and Meng.
Influence." The girl smiled slightly and said confidently.
"If this is really the condition, I can agree to it! But in front of other monks, I will not take the initiative to admit that I am an elder of your noble family. Don't expect me to do anything superficial for your noble family. How can I let others do it?
I believe that I became an elder of your noble sect, and it all depends on your own ability."
After some thought, Han Li didn't think it would do him any harm. Out of his desire for the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo, he finally agreed.
"Okay, as long as senior doesn't deny the matter when the time comes, my sisters and I will naturally be able to handle everything!" The girl said with a bright look on her face.
Now that the two of them had reached a deal, the Purple Spirit Fairy had no intention of procrastinating, so she took out a strange box from her body and put it on the table.
The reason why this box is strange is that it is neither wood nor gold, and it does not look like it is made of jade or something like that. It is translucent in color and has a faint green glow attached to it.
Seeing the strange look on Han Li's face, Fairy Purple Spirit explained to Han Li softly:
"This box is made of something called jade. Although it has jade in the name, it is actually not jade and is not included in the Five Elements. Only this thing can preserve the thunder bamboo of that day for a long time without fear of the spiritual energy leaking out.
.”
Han Li nodded. Since he had never heard of the name "Jade" before, it meant that this object was extremely rare and should be extremely precious.
Next, Fairy Zixia stretched out a finger as tender as jade, and with a flash of light on her fingertip, a green light the size of a soybean appeared on it.
Then she lightly tapped the lid of the box without hesitation. As soon as the green light touched the green glow on the box, a slight popping sound was made. Immediately, the glow disappeared completely, and the lid of the box moved on its own.
It opened slowly.
Han Li perked up and quickly looked into the box attentively.
