Chapter 2003: Three Strikes
"So it's the Great Master. It's been a few years, are you well?" Although Han Li was full of thoughts about making a move immediately, facing the monk in front of him, he could only forcibly suppress the anger in his heart and bow slightly.
After all, Great Master Jinyue could be considered one of the Elders of Tianyuan City with whom he had a good relationship, so he couldn't give him no face at all.
Seeing Great Master Jinyue arrive, Green Dragon Master felt a great sense of relief in his heart.
Knowing how terrifying Han Li's divine abilities were, he naturally didn't want to fight at all.
He had just been squeezed by Han Li's words, and in front of a group of juniors, he had to bite the bullet and make a tough gesture.
Immediately, he cupped his hands toward the monk with extreme courtesy and said:
"When did Fellow Daoist Jinyue arrive? I didn't go out to welcome you, I hope you won't blame me."
"The poor monk received news that Fellow Daoist Han had returned to the city. I set off immediately upon hearing it. Fortunately, I arrived in time and didn't cause any major trouble. However, on the way, I notified two other Fellow Daoists nearby. Calculating the time, they should have arrived as well. When the time comes, how about the three of us mediate for the two Fellow Daoists? After all, the demon race is a great enemy outside, and you are both top-tier existences in the city. The poor monk really doesn't want any major trouble to occur, which would affect the internal stability of the city. Fellow Daoist Gu, do you think the poor monk's words make some sense?" Great Master Jinyue smiled slightly at the two, then suddenly turned his head and asked toward the outside of the gate with deep meaning.
"Fellow Daoist Jinyue, I really have to thank you. Otherwise, this Douyuan Pavilion of mine might really cease to exist." After a burst of loud laughter, a ripple appeared outside the gate, and a gray figure appeared without any warning.
It was a black-faced old man in gray robes!
"Fellow Daoist Gu!" Han Li swept his gaze over the old man, recognizing him as the Pavilion Master of Douyuan Pavilion, whom he had met a few times, a Body Integration early-stage cultivator.
"Fellow Daoist Han, congratulations on returning safely. You must come to my place for a sit. Tsk tsk, to be able to escape safely from the Demon Ancestor, you must tell me about it when you return." The gray-robed old man said to Han Li with a warm smile.
This old man hadn't met Han Li many times, yet he was extremely enthusiastic, as if he were Han Li's old friend of many years.
"Brother Gu exaggerates. It was just a Demon Ancestor incarnation. If the Demon Ancestor's true body had descended, how could I have escaped with my life?" Han Li smiled bitterly and explained.
"Even if it was just a Demon Ancestor incarnation, it would be a narrow escape for ordinary Body Integration cultivators like us. Han Brother being able to appear here already shows how great your divine abilities are." The gray-robed old man shook his head repeatedly.
Hearing this, Han Li couldn't continue to distinguish, smiled, and asked Great Master Jinyue:
"Fellow Daoist Jinyue notified two Fellow Daoists, and now Brother Gu has come, but I don't know who the other Fellow Daoist is?"
"Hehe, rest assured Fellow Daoist Han, the other one is also someone you are familiar with." Great Master Jinyue smiled at the corner of his mouth.
"Someone I'm familiar with... Could it be..." Han Li narrowed his eyes upon hearing this, and after a turn of thought, he immediately thought of someone.
In the entire Tianyuan City, this was the person he was more familiar with.
Green Dragon Master coughed dryly, wanting to say something, but just then, silver light flashed outside the gate, and a silver rainbow shot in, circled in the air like a divine dragon, and landed steadily on the ground between Han Li and Green Dragon Master.
Amidst the flashing silver light, a figure appeared and immediately said with a smile:
"So fellow Daoist Yinguang has also just returned, that explains it." Han Li was startled upon hearing this and revealed a trace of a smile.
"So Fellow Daoist Silver Light also just returned, no wonder." Han Li was stunned upon hearing this, revealing a trace of a smile.
"Alright, since both of you have arrived, let's sit down and discuss it properly." Great Master Jinyue chanted a Buddhist name and said.
"Sit down? With Fellow Daoist Green Dragon! If that's the case, forget it. Han has no interest in wasting time again." Hearing Great Master Jinyue's words, Han Li's expression sank, and he said coldly.
Green Dragon Master's expression naturally became even uglier, and his face twisted slightly.
"Good, good, you actually dare to insult me like this. Even if I have to damage my vitality before the next tribulation, I will fight you properly!" He suddenly shouted sternly.
"You are willing to do so, and Han is just what I wanted." Hearing this, Han Li accepted the words without hesitation, green light flashed on his body, and he looked like he was about to make a move immediately.
"Two Fellow Daoists, wait! Listen to the poor monk first. Fellow Daoist Silver Light might not be clear about the process of this matter, but I and Fellow Daoist Gu know a thing or two. It's just that the demon race's offensive suddenly tightened, and we didn't have time to mediate this matter in advance. Speaking of which, it really made Fellow Daoist Ice Phoenix suffer some grievances." Great Master Jinyue hurriedly stood between the two again and said to Ice Phoenix with some apology.
"This matter was done by Green Dragon alone, what does it have to do with the Great Master and other Seniors?" Although Ice Phoenix was somewhat dissatisfied with the monk and others in her heart, she naturally didn't show it on her face, and instead replied respectfully.
"That can't be said! Since the poor monk is one of the Elders of Tianyuan City, how can I have no responsibility for things turning out like this? However, Green Dragon benefactor is now one of the Elders of the city, I hope Brother Han can give some face! Although Green Dragon benefactor did wrong before, he didn't cause any real harm to Fellow Daoist Ice Phoenix. How about letting Green Dragon benefactor pay a sum of spirit stones as a gift of shock for Fairy Ice Phoenix? As for the number of spirit stones, the poor monk guarantees that Fellow Daoist Ice Phoenix will be absolutely satisfied." Great Master Jinyue shook his head, and then said to Han Li and the other with extreme sincerity.
"Does the Great Master think Han lacks a few spirit stones?" Han Li frowned upon hearing this and said.
"Fellow Daoist Han naturally won't lack these few spirit stones, but I think these spirit stones will be of some help to Fellow Daoist Ice Phoenix. Of course, if you have any other conditions, you can also say them." Great Master Jinyue said with deep meaning.
"Brother Gu, Fellow Daoist Silver Light, what do you mean?" Han Li pondered for a long time before turning to ask the other two.
"Originally, Gu really doesn't want to gossip about such things. But with the demon race in front, we really shouldn't have trouble internally. I also hope the two Fellow Daoists can put aside their prejudices." The gray-robed old man yawned and said somewhat vaguely.
Han Li cursed "Old Fox" in his heart, revealed a noncommittal expression, and then swept a glance at Silver Light Fairy.
"Although I just returned, I have heard a little about this. Fellow Daoist Green Dragon went too far. But with few Body Integration cultivators in the city, each one is an important combat force to resist the demon race, so it's really not suitable to fight. However, just compensating for some spirit stones is indeed too little. Fellow Daoist Green Dragon might as well take out some materials or treasures that Fellow Daoist Ice Phoenix needs. I think that's about right!" Silver Light Fairy thought for a moment and suggested, somewhat favoring Han Li.
"Hmph, it seems the three of you have already determined that it is my fault!" Green Dragon Master's expression changed several times before he couldn't help but snort coldly.
"Whether it is really your fault, I think you should know very well yourself! Does Fellow Daoist Green Dragon want us to show some evidence like mortals? However, if you really want witnesses, there seem to be a few here." Great Master Jinyue's expression sank slightly, swept a glance at Xiaohong and the others, and replied calmly.
Xiaohong and the others, upon hearing them mentioned, looked at each other, but didn't dare to say a word.
"Ice Phoenix, what do you think!" Han Li pondered for a long time before turning to ask Ice Phoenix solemnly.
"Since several Seniors have taken action, I have nothing more to say, everything is up to Brother Han!" Ice Phoenix said very tactfully.
"Since that's the case, let's forget about the previous spirit stones and treasures. Han doesn't have much family wealth, but I don't lack these things. Fellow Daoist Green Dragon just needs to take my three strikes without dodging or avoiding. If he agrees, this matter will be put to rest for the time being." Han Li pondered for a long time with murderous aura flashing on his face before saying slowly.
"What, Brother Han still wants to make a move!" Great Master Jinyue was slightly surprised!
"It's just taking three attacks from Han, it can't be considered making a move. Great Master, you can also call it a discussion of skills." Han Li said indifferently.
"Fellow Daoist Green Dragon, what do you think?" Great Master Jinyue whispered a few words with Silver Light Fairy before turning to ask Green Dragon Master.
"Taking three strikes from you, can I use treasures?" Green Dragon Master hesitated for a moment before asking cautiously.
"You and I are cultivators, most of our divine abilities are on treasures, so naturally we have to use tools. What? Fellow Daoist and I have similar cultivation, don't you even have the confidence to take three strikes from Han?" Han Li said coldly, his words clearly carrying a trace of mockery.
"As cultivators, most of our divine abilities lie in our treasures, so naturally, we must use them. What, your cultivation is about the same as mine, do you not even have the confidence to take three strikes from Han Mou?" Han Li said coldly, his words clearly carrying a hint of sarcasm.
Just as Han Li said, as a cultivator of the same rank, if he didn't even have the guts to take three strikes, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the face to stand in Tianyuan City anymore.
"Very good, since Fellow Daoist Green Dragon has no opinion, let's find a place and settle this matter immediately. You don't want to drag this matter out, do you!" Han Li's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said gloomily immediately.
"Since I agreed, it doesn't matter if it's early or late. You find the place!" Green Dragon Master agreed to Han Li's condition, and he also appeared extremely straightforward, replying without hesitation.
"Since this seat has agreed, it doesn't matter if it's sooner or later. You find the place!" After agreeing to Han Li's conditions, the Qinglong Shangren appeared extremely straightforward and replied without hesitation.
