Chapter 124: Mo Mo Fengwu

"My sisters don't need to take this medicine, do they? Isn't my life enough as collateral?" Mistress Yan, having swallowed the pill, stopped Mistress Li from wanting to take one as well.

Han Li was stunned for a moment upon hearing Mistress Yan's words, showing some surprise.

But after pondering for a moment, he nodded slightly and said: "Since the Fourth Mistress is so deeply attached to her sisters, and has said as much, I, Han Li, am not an unreasonable person! Fine, Mistress Li and the others don't need to take the medicine."

After Han Li finished speaking, he took the bottle back from Mistress Yan and put it back into his robes.

"Since the matter is settled, I will take my leave and return. Tomorrow at this time, I will come to the Mo estate to take the portrait and other items, and then I will head directly to the Overlord Mountain Villa."

"Then I will trouble you, Young Master!" Mistress Yan and the others stood up to see Han Li off.

Han Li smiled faintly, turned around gracefully, and left the room.

Just as Han Li walked down the small building, hurried footsteps came from behind.

"Senior Martial Brother Han, wait a moment! My Second Sister has something to ask you!" Mo Mo Caihuan's loud voice came over. Hearing this, Han Li sighed and turned around helplessly.

He saw the little demoness charging at the front, with Mo Mo Fengwu and Mo Mo Yuzhu following behind, walking toward him.

Mo Mo Caihuan caught up to Han Li in a few steps, then circled around him with wide eyes, making "tsk-tsk" sounds, as if looking at some rare creature!

"Alright! Senior Martial Brother Han, you've deceived me so badly! I didn't expect you to be a fake too! Using some small trinkets to fool me completely."

Han Li rolled his eyes at the girl. What "small trinkets"? You were the one who demanded gifts!

"Third Sister, be respectful. Don't mess around with Young Master Han."

This was the first time Han Li heard Mo Mo Fengwu's voice; it was soft and very gentle, making it very comfortable to listen to.

"What do you mean? I'm just venting for Mother and the others. Who told this guy to be so arrogant in front of my mother!" Mo Mo Caihuan said indignantly.

Han Li heard this and realized, as he had expected, that this girl was purely here to annoy him. He stopped paying attention to the little demoness and turned to Mo Mo Fengwu:

"Second Young Lady, do you have something to ask me?"

Seeing Han Li speak to her, Mo Mo Fengwu's face flushed slightly, but she still said softly and gently: "Mo Fengwu is looking for you, Young Master, just to know if the Fragrance-Lingering Pill Third Sister has was truly a gift from you? Did you obtain the true teachings of my father's medical arts?"

Han Li had felt a great sense of goodwill toward Mo Mo Fengwu from the moment he saw her, and now, seeing the beautiful woman speak so gently and shyly, he couldn't help but feel a great deal of pity for her.

So he said very kindly: "If the Second Young Lady wants to know this, I, Han, will naturally tell you everything I know."

"Mo Caihuan's Fragrance-Lingering Pill was indeed a gift from me. I did learn quite a bit of medicine and prescriptions from Master Mo. Is it possible that you, Miss Mo Fengwu, are also very interested in this?"

Ever since Han Li saw the herbs planted in the back courtyard of the Mo estate, he knew there must be someone who had learned Doctor Mo's medical arts. Now, seeing Mo Mo Fengwu ask this, he knew that the beautiful woman before him was likely that person.

Sure enough, as soon as Han Li's words were spoken, the girl, who had looked very quiet, showed a hint of joy in her eyes and said:

"I won't hide it from you, Young Master. Mo Fengwu has been very interested in my father's medical arts since I was young and has studied many of his medical books and insights. Unfortunately, when my father left the Mo estate, I was still young, so what I have learned is truly limited."

After saying this, Mo Mo Fengwu hesitated, but continued tentatively:

"So Mo Fengwu has a request, and I hope you can fulfill it, Young Master. Could you transcribe a copy of my father's medical insights for Mo Fengwu, so that I can learn more and refine my own medical skills?"

After saying this, the Second Young Lady of the Mo estate blushed, clearly feeling very embarrassed by her sudden request.

And after hearing the beautiful woman's request, Han Li didn't even think about it and immediately agreed.

"No problem. When I come to the Mo estate tomorrow, I will bring some of Master Mo's manuscripts and prescriptions for you, Second Young Lady. These were originally items of the Mo estate; I had intended to hand them over to the Fourth Mistress. Since you want them, giving them to you is the same." Han Li smiled and said.

"Thank you for fulfilling my request, Young Master! Mo Fengwu is deeply grateful!" A look of gratitude appeared on Mo Mo Fengwu's face.

"Second Sister, why thank him? Didn't you hear him say that those things were originally ours? Giving them to you is only right." Mo Mo Caihuan suddenly interrupted, blinking her eyes.

Han Li glanced at the little girl after hearing this and thought to himself: "If it weren't for your Second Sister, such a gentle and lovely beauty asking me, would those things that fell into my hands ever be returned to the Mo estate? Keep dreaming!"

"Third Sister, don't talk nonsense. Young Master Han's willingness to hand over Father's relics without hesitation is enough to show his character."

Perhaps noticing the discord between Han Li and Mo Mo Caihuan, Mo Mo Fengwu hurriedly scolded the little girl, then pulled her along, gave a graceful bow to Han Li, and bid farewell.

From beginning to end, the eldest young lady of the Mo estate, Mo Mo Yuzhu, didn't say a word. After seeing Mo Mo Fengwu and her sister leave, she took a deep look at Han Li before following them.

"What did that look from the eldest young lady mean? Gratitude, hatred, or both?" Han Li was somewhat baffled by Mo Mo Yuzhu's parting glance.

But after shrugging his shoulders, Han Li stopped thinking about it and left the Mo estate.

When Han Li returned to the inn, the new leader of the Stunning Dragon Society, Sun Ergou, and another person had been waiting outside Han Li's room for a long time. Naturally, Qu Hun was there too.

Seeing Sun Ergou, Han Li nodded at him, pushed the door open, and entered the room. Sun Ergou and the other person followed him in respectfully and stood to the sides.

After Han Li sat down, he carefully examined the stranger who had come with Sun Ergou—a man in his thirties, with a face full of flesh and a fierce appearance.

"Looking at your glowing face, you must have already taken the position of leader of the Stunning Dragon Society!" Han Li said indifferently to Sun Ergou.

"I have! I have! This is all thanks to your support, Young Master. Otherwise, how could I, a person of such low status, have today!" Sun Ergou beamed with joy and hurriedly responded.

"You know that, good! I won't interfere with the affairs of the Stunning Dragon Society, but you must use the power of the Stunning Dragon Society to handle the matters I've entrusted to you properly. Otherwise, I wouldn't mind changing to another leader." Han Li said coldly.

These words made Sun Ergou, who had been somewhat carried away, shiver and sober up significantly.

"I will definitely go all out for your affairs, Young Master, and even if I have to give my life, I will complete them!" Sun Ergou hurriedly put on a look of loyalty.

Han Li gave a slight "Hmm" and stopped paying attention to Sun Ergou, turning his gaze to the other person.

"You are the one who heard the conversation of the immortals?" Han Li asked with great interest.

"Yes, this humble one, Xi Xi Tie Niu, did indeed hear it!" The burly man answered respectfully.

Despite his burly appearance, he wasn't stupid. He knew very well that the unremarkable young man before him was the one behind Sun Ergou's rise to power, so he didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest.

Han Li was very satisfied. As long as the person was smart, things would be much easier to handle.

"Tell me the story of the day you met the male and female immortals from beginning to end. If I'm satisfied, I'll let you be Sun Ergou's deputy, becoming the Deputy Leader of the Stunning Dragon Society!" Han Li knew well that only great rewards could mobilize others to work for him, so he promised without hesitation.

Xi Xi Tie Niu was overjoyed upon hearing this and excitedly patted his chest, indicating he would definitely satisfy Han Li.

Sun Ergou, hearing this, wasn't very happy, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.

Thus, after Xi Xi Tie Niu calmed down slightly, he recounted the story of meeting the cultivators from beginning to end.

This account by Xi Xi Tie Niu had many differences in detail from what Sun Ergou had said, but the overall process was exactly the same, with no major discrepancies.

"Did those male and female immortals mention any time or place?" Han Li asked about the matter he cared about most after hearing the other party's account.
