Chapter 1032: Joining Forces

"I didn't expect Daoist Han to dare to appear here. I truly admire you a bit, Brother Xu," the Xu-surnamed youth sneered. He raised his hand, and a streak of silver light shot out, shattering a stone man facing him, and was the first to speak.

"Why wouldn't I dare to come? Now that the Spirit Treasure is before us, do you still have the mind to find trouble with me, Daoist?" Han Li replied, glancing over without changing his expression.

He saw the remains of the shattered stone man flash with white light on the altar, then re-coalesce as before, continuing to wave the golden blade in its hand and release blade light to strike at the sky. He felt somewhat surprised in his heart!

After hearing Han Li's words, a flash of baleful energy appeared on the face of this Heavenly South Prairie Great Immortal Master. Just as he was about to say something else, the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha in the distance spread its wings in the air and said indifferently:

"Has Your Excellency forgotten the grudge between us? Although the treasure is before us, I don't mind settling our private grudge first."

As soon as these words fell, the Lion-Bird Beast on the side also emitted a low roar, its threatening intent fully revealed.

"Is that so?" Han Li laughed instead of being surprised after hearing this.

Gui Ling on the side sighed, stepped forward, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Han Li.

This scene caused the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha's face to change slightly.

"Daoist Gui, what is the meaning of this? Why are you together with this human cultivator?"

"Meaning? Do you really not know, or are you playing dumb? This old lady was ruthlessly used by you all. You only cared about your own life-soul tablets and didn't care about my life at all. Now my life-soul tablet has fallen into someone else's hands. If I don't want my soul to fly away and scatter, naturally I have no choice but to obey orders," Gui Ling said, fierce light flashing in her eyes as she pointed at the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha in the distance and cursed.

This scene left all the cultivators stunned.

The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha revealed a trace of embarrassment. The Lion-Bird Beast on the side also immediately closed its mouth.

Speaking of which, these three demons had a deep connection back then and naturally had some friendship. If possible, the two demons would have liked to help the ugly woman retrieve her life-soul tablet.

But the situation at that time was truly special. They were already greatly fortunate to have snatched their own life-soul tablets. They really couldn't take care of Gui Ling's life tablet. Moreover, Han Li was extremely slippery; as soon as the treasure was in his hands, he immediately slipped away, while they were trapped by the power of the Four-Image Ruler and could only watch Han Li run away.

"Don't worry, Daoist Gui, the two of us will naturally help you snatch back your life-soul tablet," the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha said, his expression returning to normal as he stared gloomily at Han Li.

"At this point, what's the use of saying these things? This old lady now has to obey orders. If you clash with them, don't blame me for not showing mercy," Gui Ling said, glaring.

The Silver-Winged Winged Yecha gave a bitter smile upon hearing this and said nothing more, but he glared fiercely at Han Li twice.

Han Li remained as usual, ignoring him, while simultaneously deciding in his heart. If the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha really looked for trouble with him, he would have no choice but to let Gui Ling face him.

"Daoist Han, I wonder what the result of the battle with Old Demon Qian was? This old demon hasn't appeared until now; could it be that he perished at your hands, Daoist?" the Transformation Immortal Sect's Madam Mu suddenly asked with a charming smile.

The content of these words shocked all the other cultivators.

"So it was you, Madam, who was spying on our battle in the Northern Extreme Light. I haven't asked for your esteemed name yet." Hearing the woman's malicious question, Han Li's eyelid twitched. He then swept his gaze over her and the beautiful woman beside her before asking calmly.

"Those who don't recognize the two of us here are probably only Brother Han. I come from the Transformation Immortal Sect in the Southern Border and can be considered half a host here. Brother Han, on the other hand, looks very unfamiliar. Could it be that you are not a cultivator from our Great Jin?" Madam Mu's plain face actually added a few points of charm as her figure swayed, but deep in her pupils, it was icy cold.

"My background doesn't seem to have anything to do with the current matter. On the contrary, I was quite well taken care of by you two Daoists when I was at the Mount Kunwu Hall. As for Brother Qian, we were just sparring, and naturally, we parted ways afterward. Why, hasn't Daoist Qian arrived here? I thought he had arrived a step earlier," Han Li said casually without changing his expression, leaving Gui Ling on the side rolling her eyes in her heart, speechless.

Although Madam Mu was somewhat suspicious in her heart, she didn't really believe that Han Li had truly killed the famous Old Demon Qian. So, after hearing Han Li's unfriendly reply, she actually covered her mouth and laughed, saying nothing more.

The other few unfamiliar cultivators, seeing so many people valuing the newly appeared Han Li, exchanged glances and retreated, stopping their attacks on the stone puppets in the array.

Among them, a white-robed scholar in the late Nascent Soul stage flashed his eyes and transmitted his voice to Han Li:

"This Daoist, it seems you have some grudges with others here. I am the Great Elder of the Ye family, in charge of the Great Jin imperial clan. Are you interested in joining forces with the Ye family, Daoist? We only want this Eight-Spirit Ruler; all other treasures in the palace will belong to you, Daoist. I wonder what you think?"

Han Li was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but no strange expression appeared on his face, nor did he answer anything.

"Daoist, don't think that our Ye family is greedy. Even if you were lucky enough to get this supreme treasure, Daoist, you would definitely have no chance to keep it for long, given your lack of strength." Seeing that Han Li's cultivation base was not weak and that he could drive a high-level demon beast like Gui Ling, the scholar was quite eager to win him over.

Han Li's brows twitched, and he finally opened his mouth, transmitting his voice back:

"I didn't expect that you, Brother Ye, would even know who came to the Ye family. To be honest, Daoist, I believe that your senior should also be in this tower. Although I haven't contacted him, I believe that at the critical moment, he will definitely take action. Perhaps he has already sneaked into the palace, who knows!" The scholar's heart tightened, but he gave a hehe laugh.

"Is that so? If the palace is empty, wouldn't I have been busy for nothing, and also thoroughly offended everyone else?" Han Li remained silent for a moment before replying.

"This is simple. I have obtained several treasures of considerable power in other parts of Mount Mount Kunwu before. If you truly haven't gained anything, Daoist, I am willing to take them all out and gift them to you, Brother Han. If you are afraid of offending others, Brother Han, our Ye family can also accept you as a guest elder of the Ye family after the matter, or pay you one million spirit stones at once." Seeing that Han Li was somewhat tempted, the white-robed scholar hurriedly laid out all the conditions he had thought of.

You must know, because the big-headed monster and several other Ye family cultivators had disappeared for no reason, he was feeling extremely anxious, feeling that things were slipping out of his control, so he naturally spared no expense to win over Han Li, this cultivator who seemed to be from outside the Great Jin.

"The matter of being a guest elder can be forgotten. I am quite interested in that million spirit stones. At worst, I will just leave the Great Jin immediately after the matter." Han Li pondered for a moment and actually agreed with a light laugh.

"That would be best. Then it is settled between you and me, Daoist Ye. In a moment, you can just act according to the situation, Daoist." The white-robed scholar seemed very happy.

"Why, Master, are you really going to let this Eight-Spirit Ruler be given to others?" As Han Li's heart-connected artifact spirit, Yin Yue heard the conversation between Han Li and the scholar clearly and couldn't help but ask.

"Give it away? Of course not. He and I have only reached a verbal agreement. Like this kind of agreement without any guarantee, neither he nor I will take it seriously. It's just that the Ye family feels weak now, and I need someone to help me restrain the others. That's all." Han Li said leisurely to Yin Yue.

"I thought so! As long as the great array can be broken, when the time comes, whoever can obtain the Eight-Spirit Ruler will still depend on their own divine abilities," Yin Yue sighed and said.

Han Li smiled slightly and said nothing more. Because at this moment, the white-robed scholar raised his spiritual power and said loudly to the others:

"Fellow Daoists, since this Daoist Han has also arrived here, we should have a few more points of certainty in breaking this ancient array. The previous agreement should be equally valid for Daoist Han, right?"

"Hmph! We have enough people to break this array. Why add anyone else? Just take him down," the Xu-surnamed youth sneered.

"Take him down? Brother Xu, are you joking? If you can do it by taking action, Brother Xu, then naturally I have no opinion. Besides, the seal outside is weakening at any time. Do you think we still have time to dawdle here?" The white-robed scholar's face sank, and he said gloomily.

"That sentence is true. The Profound Green Child of the Taiyi Sect has already arrived outside, and I heard that the Seven-Wonderful True Person of the Heavenly Demon Sect is also arriving here. We have at most one day to take the treasure. Otherwise, when the first great sect of the righteous and demonic paths arrives, do you think this Eight-Spirit Ruler will still have a share for us?" Madam Mu brushed the green hair from her forehead and actually said this.

Taiyi Sect! Heavenly Demon Sect!

Except for the three demons, all the cultivators, including Han Li, were greatly shocked. Especially the Great Elder of the Ye family, whose face turned pale for a few points.

The Xu-surnamed youth and Lin Lin Yinping looked at each other, their faces looking no better.

Although their Heavenly South Holy Palace and the Heavenly Demon Sect had some dealings, they would never think that the other party would share the treasures of Mount Mount Kunwu with them.

"Fine, let him join the ranks of breaking the array. But once the array is broken, whoever can obtain this Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure will depend on their own divine abilities!" The Xu-surnamed youth was worthy of being a Great Cultivator and immediately made a trade-off.

Others, as well as the Silver-Winged Winged Yecha and other demons, all had their own ulterior motives, but no one opposed the matter anymore.

Seeing this, Han Li curled his lips, then shook his sleeves, and more than ten golden flying swords shot out, attacking the stone puppets below without a word. Others also unwillingly launched a fierce attack on the array again.

The puppets below, which had been motionless, immediately became active again, not showing any weakness as they waved their golden blades to attack the sky.

Immediately, blade light crisscrossed, and rumbling sounds rose again!
