Fengyang Manor border.

Here lies a mountain range that stretches for hundreds of miles, the main peak rising up to 15,000 feet, known as Yingyuan Mountain.

Legend has it that Yingyuan Mountain was formed from a Flood Dragon in ancient times. This Flood Dragon, with profound cultivation, was hunted down to Qianyuan Divine Province, and died in the region where Fengyang Manor is situated. Its body turned into a mountain range, enriching the area with an extremely dense spiritual energy.

Yun Miaoyi didn’t believe this legend one bit.

Having watched over this place for more than a year, she had scrutinized Yingyuan Mountain thoroughly, finding nothing extraordinary about it, and the spiritual energy was not as rich as claimed.

“Could it be that, with the passage of time, Yingyuan Mountain’s spiritual energy has been completely depleted?”

Yun Miaoyi frowned, feeling that it was highly possible.

Even if that Flood Dragon’s cultivation was above the powerful beings of the Tongxuan Realm, reputed to be of the Saint Abyss Realm, possessing unparalleled might, an invincible force within its body, it couldn’t withstand the ravages of time.

The Yinyang Sect’s ancient texts contain some records of this, saying that a Saint from ancient times traveled through the Eight Hundred Divine Regions, slaying the evil Flood Dragons of the world. The one that escaped to Qianyuan Divine Province was the last one left in the world.

That ancient Saint pursued the Flood Dragon for three thousand years, ultimately vanquishing it in Qianyuan Divine Province. Its body transformed into the sprawling Yingyuan Mountain.

Just then, a stunningly beautiful lady with silver hair, clad in white robes, carrying an Immortal Sword on her back, arrived flying and landed not far from Yun Miaoyi.

Jiang Baiye glanced at Yun Miaoyi and knew what she was thinking, saying, “You should stop fantasizing about the Flood Dragon’s treasure and the legacy of the Dragon-Slaying Great Saint. Tens of thousands of years, perhaps even more, have passed. Even if there were treasures and legacies, they would have long been claimed.”

During the times Yun Miaoyi kept watch, she would wander aimlessly around and loved to strike up conversations with her. Jiang Baiye’s ears were almost getting calloused from listening.

Yun Miaoyi gave a charming smile, exuding a multitude of amorous gestures. She didn’t really hold any hope; she was just passing the time. But, what if she indeed stumbled upon it?

“Has Han Li shown up?” Yun Miaoyi asked.

They wouldn’t just wait here aimlessly, nor did they want to worry about Han Li potentially taking a detour back to Fengyang Manor or heading elsewhere. Every month, one of the two women would go to Tianji Pavilion in Fengyang City to purchase intelligence on Han Li’s whereabouts.

“He appeared in Fenglei Manor a day ago, ” Jiang Baiye said indifferently.

Yun Miaoyi’s brows furrowed slightly, “What’s he doing in Fenglei Manor?”

According to the intelligence reports, Han Li was not someone who wandered around aimlessly—other than the occasional visit to Tianxuan Mountain, he mostly stayed in Lingjun City.

After returning from Tianxuan Mountain, instead of heading straight back to Fengyang Manor, Han Li went in another direction, towards Fenglei Manor, which seemed suspicious.

Was it a mission from Tianxuan Mountain? Or had Han Li noticed something? Or perhaps there was some business he needed to handle in Fenglei Manor…

All sorts of guesses emerged in Yun Miaoyi’s mind. She stuck out her little tongue and licked her red lips, asking, “Were Qiu Shuilin, Gongsun Yun, and the others with him?” Jiang Baiye shook her head.

“Let’s go.”

Jiang Baiye nodded, and the two immediately left Yingyuan Mountain, heading to Fenglei Manor City.

This was also the reason for Jiang Baiye’s return. If Han Li had taken a detour back to Lingjun City, she would have gone directly to capture him, not caring about Yun Miaoyi, all for the sake of the Body-Cultivating Furnace.

But now, with Han Li’s movements appearing suspicious, she decided it was safer to bring Yun Miaoyi along. Should any mishap occur, the two of them together could handle it.

Both women were of the God Refining Realm and had cultivated high-level movement and footwork techniques to a profound depth, giving them incredible speed that could match an average Hollow Realm Master.

The trip from Lingjun City to Tianxuan Mountain, which Han Li had taken, had taken him well over ten days, and Fenglei Manor was even farther, yet the two women covered the distance in a very short time.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi hurried to Fenglei Manor City in a flurry. After a brief inquiry, they learned of Han Li’s exact whereabouts.

Han Li had arrived at Fenglei Manor City the previous evening, staying at the Yunling Inn. He left the city early the next morning, heading a thousand miles west of the city to Myriad Sky Mountain. His purpose was unclear.

The two women exchanged a glance and immediately decided to rush to Myriad Sky Mountain.

Although they did not know Han Li’s purpose for going to Myriad Sky Mountain, they were both highly skilled and daring, paying no heed to these trivial details.

If their guess was correct and the seven Loose Cultivators were killed by Han Li, then it was highly likely that Lu Renbin was also killed by Han Li.

From the crime scene investigation, the person who killed the seven Loose Cultivators had, at most, the cultivation level of Gangyuan Realm. If Han Li was in the Gangyuan Realm, given the time it took for his breakthrough into the Pihai Realm, it’s estimated that Han Li would be in the early stages of the Gangyuan Realm.

That was already a high estimate from the two women; in reality, they hardly believed it. An eighth -grade talent cultivating so quickly? What a joke.

They weren’t looking down on Han Li; they even speculated that he might be at the peak of the Gangyuan Realm or even the God Refining Realm, but the higher the cultivation level, the less likely it seemed.

The probability of Han Li being in the God Refining Realm was almost nonexistent; even if Han Li had encountered some miraculous fortune, it wouldn’t be possible for him to cultivate from the first level of the Pihai Realm to the God Refining Realm in a mere twenty years.

Although they felt it was unlikely, what if?

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi didn’t indulge in wishful thinking, which was why they joined forces to come here. They were extremely cautious in their hearts, worried about a possible ambush by Han Li.

Even if Han Li was in the early stages of the God Refining Realm, he wouldn’t be able to defeat their joint efforts.

Atop Myriad Sky Mountain.

Han Li stood at the peak, his green robe billowing, looking at the magnificent view in front of him, he couldn’t help but exclaim,

“Glory breaks through a thousand layers of clouds, the vast mountains and rivers remain unmatched.”

He stood on the mountain peak, as far as his eyes could see, one summit after another stood tall, piercing the heavens; the mountain range lush and verdant, with white clouds chasing and playing.

At the end of his vision, a great sun was setting in the west, releasing a brilliance of ten thousand Zhang, piercing through the myriad layers of cloud sea, illuminating the splendid mountains and rivers.

Gazing upon this beautiful scenery, Han Li’s mind couldn’t help but open up, enjoying the rare sight.

Suddenly, Han Li’s brow furrowed as he sensed two powerful auras entering the range of his Spiritual Sense.

When he had just broken through to the God Refining Realm, his Spiritual Sense could cover a radius of two hundred li. Now that he had broken through to the seventh level of the God Refining Realm, his Spiritual Sense directly expanded to cover a thousand li.

Extending to the limit was hugely draining on his mental strength, and it put a significant burden on his Divine Spirit, not to mention that it was easy to overlook things, so Han Li only covered a radius of two hundred li with his Spiritual Sense.

Within this two hundred li range, even if a strong practitioner in the God

Refining Realm attempted to sneak in, he could detect them with ease. Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi’s Spiritual Senses were far less powerful than Han Li’s; they had already exposed their tracks without realizing it.

“They’ve finally arrived.”

Han Li didn’t turn around, yet a smile appeared on his face.

He had made all the preparations, now he just waited for these two fish to take the bait.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi regarded the Body-Cultivating Furnace with great importance indeed. Han Li had only leaked his whereabouts yesterday evening, and by this afternoon, they had already rushed over, their speed was undeniably swift.

Han Li’s Spiritual Sense kept a close watch on the two women, seeing that they flew unhurriedly, yet their expressions were calm, with a trace of concern in his brows.

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi had indeed sensed something. Even if they believed his cultivation was low, they remained cautious, not hastening to Myriad Sky Mountain.

Along the way, their flight seemed leisurely and relaxed, but in their hearts, they were always on guard, wary of a potential ambush by a powerful adversary.

What they feared most was that Han Li had handed over the Body-Cultivating Furnace to Tianxuan Mountain and then set up a trap with the strong practitioners of Tianxuan Mountain.

Of course, both women felt this possibility was extremely unlikely, as improbable as Han Li being in the God Refining Realm—so improbable as to be nearly impossible.

They had gathered information on Han Li; with such a treasure as the Body-Cultivating Furnace, he would never present it to Tianxuan Mountain but would rather keep it within the Han Family.

Who would have thought that Han Li valued the Han Family too dear? With the Body-Cultivating Furnace, the Han Family had a great chance of developing into the new Canghai Sect, or at the very least becoming a power of Tianxuan Mountain’s caliber.

PS: A new week has arrived, and it’s time to make another push on the charts. This book will be off the new book ranking in about four or five days, and I hope my brothers and sisters will show some support.

The beginning of a new week is the most likely time to rush into the top ten of the overall rankings. With your support, I’m sure we can make it happen.

I’ll plant a flag here—if this week we make it into the top ten of the new book ranking, there will be at least ten more chapters on launch, each at least three thousand words long; the additional chapters after the launch will be calculated separately.

Cheng Xu Yu Feng is here to thank everyone for your support; I am eternally grateful..
