Chapter 1546: Disagreement

Hearing the old man surnamed Jiang say this, Yuan Yao and Yan Li felt a sense of relief and hurriedly thanked him.

The old man suddenly clapped his hands twice.

As soon as the applause fell, a white light flashed outside the side door, and a white shadow that looked semi-transparent appeared from the void.

"Shadow Slave, take them to the room I specifically use to entertain guests to rest. If the three fellow Daoists have any needs, just satisfy them." The old man ordered the white shadow.

"Yes, Master!" The white shadow bowed slightly and replied respectfully.

Han Li swept his divine sense over this white shadow and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Although the aura of this white shadow was also exceptionally powerful, it was not too disparate; it was actually a Ghost King of the late stage of Refining Void.

Although Han Li still had some questions and doubts, under the gaze of this white shadow, he could only obediently follow it and leave.

Watching Han Li and the others disappear from the side door, the old man surnamed Jiang withdrew his gaze and pondered with a thoughtful expression.

Han Li and the others followed the white shadow, passed through several passages and several side halls, and were brought to a courtyard.

This courtyard consisted of more than a dozen stone houses of varying sizes.

Although it wasn't exquisite or gorgeous, it was clean and tidy.

The white shadow wasn't very polite; it pointed to the courtyard and said coldly:

"The three of you rest here. Also, I'll give the three fellow Daoists a piece of advice: if there's nothing urgent, it's best not to wander around the mansion. If there's really something, the three of you can shout my name three times, and I will immediately sense it."

After the white shadow finished speaking, its figure flickered and disappeared eerily.

Han Li, Yuan Yao, and the others were left looking at each other.

"Let's go in and rest for the night first. We've been rushing on the road without stopping before, so I think the two fellow Daoists are also a bit tired. If there's anything, we'll discuss it in detail after the three of us have recovered some energy. Anyway, we have three days, so there's no rush." Han Li exhaled a long breath, turned his head, and smiled at the two women.

Yan Li gave a forced smile and said "Hmm," while Yuan Yao frowned and answered subconsciously.

Han Li nodded and walked into the courtyard first.

He came to a stone house on the side. There was no restriction on the door, so he pushed it open and walked in.

The area inside was not very large, only seven or eight feet. But tables, chairs, and beds were all complete, and they were all refined from ordinary blue stone, appearing exceptionally simple!

In a corner of the room, there was even a cushion woven from green grass, lying quietly there.

Han Li raised his eyebrows, flicked his sleeve, and more than a dozen array flags shot out, disappearing in the corners.

A layer of green, hazy light curtain appeared.

This was just a simple anti-peeping restriction. Although it had no substantial protective effect, it wouldn't let him be monitored secretly without knowing.

Han Li then took off his shoes and clothes without haste and immediately lay down to sleep.

Speaking of which, since entering the Underworld River, he had to deal with the ghosts of the Underworld River on one hand and be careful of the calculations of the Ghost Mother and others on the other, so he really hadn't rested well.

Now, although he couldn't say he was completely at ease with the old man surnamed Jiang, with the other party's cultivation as a Body Integration stage cultivator, being careful was useless. He didn't need to consider too much. He could rest with peace of mind.

After a while, snoring sounds rang out in the stone house, and Han Li fell into a dream.

That night, he slept very sweetly. He not only dreamed of the life he lived with his parents and siblings when he was young, but even the figures of some childhood playmates surfaced one by one.

It's just that although these people were all familiar, their faces could never be seen clearly in the dream.

Finally, a pair of beautiful eyes full of tenderness appeared in the dream, and their owner was none other than Nangong Wan, his beloved wife in the human world.

In the dream, Nangong Wan didn't say anything, just looked at Han Li with gentle eyes.

Han Li also looked back foolishly in the dream, as if he were intoxicated by this gaze...

I don't know how much time passed, but when Han Li's eyelids moved and he woke up from the dream, Nangong Wan's eyes, which were like autumn water, were still flickering before his eyes.

He didn't get up immediately but remained motionless on the bed, continuing to savor the trace of warmth in his heart.

After the time it takes to eat a meal, the foolish look in Han Li's eyes gradually faded and became as ordinary as usual.

I don't know if it was a coincidence, but just then, Yan Li's pleasant voice suddenly came from outside the door:

"Brother Han, are you awake? If you are awake, let's discuss what to do!"

This woman spoke exceptionally politely.

"Fellow Daoist, wait a moment, Han will come out immediately." Han Li's figure flickered, he sat up from the bed, and replied without thought.

"Then my junior sister and I will wait for Brother Han's arrival in the middle room!" Yan Li laughed lightly, and then the voice disappeared completely.

Han Li put on his shoes and clothes, raised his hand, and a ball of green light flowed over his body from top to bottom.

Immediately, the wrinkled parts of his robe were smoothed out.

Han Li himself also felt a cool sensation turn in his brain, and he immediately felt refreshed, pushed the door open, and walked out of the stone house.

Yan Li and Yuan Yao lived at the other end of the courtyard last night. I don't know if the two women had discussed it beforehand.

Han Li thought to himself and walked into the middle room of the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the room, it was twice as large as the stone house he lived in. At the same time, there was a stone table and many stone chairs in the room. Yan Li and Yuan Yao were sitting around the table discussing something.

And in the four corners of the hall, there was a black banner fluttering, and a layer of gray light, which was there or not, shrouded the entire room.

It seems the two women had set up some restrictions here first.

"Brother Han, you came just in time. My junior sister and I are racking our brains over Senior Jiang's matter." Yan Li stood up with a charming smile when she saw Han Li enter.

Yuan Yao's eyes flickered, and she also stood up to welcome him!

"Oh, it seems the two fellow Daoists have already discussed this matter. If you trust Han, you might as well tell me what you think directly. Although Han's cultivation is not high, I dare say I'm not bad at making plans." Han Li said with a smile.

Then he walked forward a few steps and sat down with the two women again.

"Actually, it's very simple. Being taken as a disciple by Senior Jiang's status should have been a great opportunity. But I want to return to the human race more to find the secret technique for rebuilding the human body. No matter how powerful the Long Yuan Clan's divine abilities are, they cannot resolve my half-human, half-ghost body. But Senior Sister feels this is a rare opportunity and hopes I will agree." Yuan Yao opened her mouth helplessly first.

"Junior Sister Yuan, why be in such a hurry to restore the human body? You can follow Senior Jiang and cultivate for a period of time. After your divine abilities are accomplished, you can return to the human race to find a way to restore the human body. Such a good opportunity, once missed, will be hard to encounter again." Yuan Yao was quite thorough in her thinking and pointed it out directly.

"If I could really restore the human body later, why would I consider so much! Senior Sister should also be very clear that since you and I practiced the Yin-Yang Reincarnation Technique, our constitutions have been turning into real ghosts bit by bit. Although you and I have tried our best to suppress this, I'm afraid it won't be long before we become real ghosts. How can I delay here any longer to cultivate other divine abilities." Yuan Yao sighed, looking troubled.

"As long as you and I can be together, what does it matter if we really become ghosts? The Spirit World is dangerous, Junior Sister hasn't seen it? Even if you and I restore the human body, who knows when we will fall. If so, Junior Sister might as well get protection under Senior Jiang. After your divine abilities are accomplished, you can find another way to return to the human body. After all, you and I have become ghost bodies, which must be different from real ghosts, and there should be a way to reverse the situation. And to speak bluntly, Senior Jiang seems to value Junior Sister so much. If you don't agree, I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave this place easily." Yan Li advised like this.

"What if there is really no such reversal method?" Yuan Yao looked at Han Li strangely, then shook her head repeatedly, looking like she agreed.

"Brother Han, what do you think of this matter? Say a few words!" Yan Li was helpless and could only turn to Han Li for help.

"I have understood the meaning of the two fellow Daoists. Yuan, you are worried that you won't be able to return to the human body in the future, so you don't want to become Senior Jiang's disciple now, while Fellow Daoist Yan feels this is a rare opportunity and doesn't want Yuan to give it up. Am I right?" Han Li pondered for a moment and analyzed calmly.

"Not bad, my junior sister and I couldn't convince each other last night!" Yan Li smiled bitterly.

"Yuan's mood of not wanting to become a ghost, Han naturally understands. Fellow Daoist Yan's idea of not wanting Yuan to give up this rare opportunity, I can also understand. The two of you are actually not wrong." Han Li replied with a smile.

"Brother Han, my junior sister and I came to you to discuss this matter, not for you to be a fence-sitter." Yan Li raised her eyebrows, a bit dissatisfied.

"Hehe, Fellow Daoist misunderstood. Actually, what Han wants to say is that the disagreement between you and Yuan is not impossible to solve at the same time." Han Li said with a smile.

"What, Brother Han, are you serious?" Yan Li was stunned, then showed a look of disbelief.

Yuan Yao was also surprised!
