Chapter 399: Sanctimonious

"Elder Zhao, sorry to have kept you waiting! This is Senior Han, the owner of that batch of demon beast materials!" The Miaoyin Sect woman said respectfully to the gray-clothed old man as soon as she entered the room.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist Han! Please sit. I just brewed a pot of Ice Cloud Spirit Tea myself; Fellow Daoist, please have a taste." The gray-clothed old man raised his head and glanced at Han Li, saying lightly.

Han Li frowned. The old man's appearance was nothing special, but his cheeks were actually red in a somewhat abnormal way, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness, which made him feel a trace of doubt in his heart.

His spiritual sense was now far stronger than that of cultivators of the same level, and he instantly saw that the old man was also a Core Formation early-stage cultivator.

So he didn't say any words of refusal, sitting directly opposite the old man, but calmly glanced at a cup of fragrant tea the old man had just poured, without reaching out to take it.

Although the other party didn't seem to want to be unfavorable to him, out of his habit of being cautious, he wouldn't drink anything in a strange place.

Seeing Han Li's cautious appearance, the old man didn't show any displeasure, just smiled lightly, poured himself a small cup, and drank it slowly.

It seemed that at this moment, he had cast Han Li and the others aside again.

"Senior Han! This time, this little girl represents the Miaoyin Sect in seeking out Senior, wanting to buy all the remaining demon beast materials Senior has. As for the price, it is negotiable." Fan Madam said slowly to Han Li with her red lips slightly parted as soon as she sat down, appearing extremely elegant and dignified.

"I did have some demon beast materials before, but the last batch was just sold, so I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint your sect." Not knowing what the other party's true intentions were, Han Li naturally wouldn't easily admit that he still had many rare materials, so he blocked the other party's words in a calm manner.

Madam Fan heard Han Li's words of refusal, smiled charmingly, and said warmly with a smile:

"Senior Han, these words are a bit deceptive! Although our sect doesn't know how many demon beast materials Senior still has, I think there must be many. Otherwise, Senior wouldn't have been so careful to only find small merchants from outside to sell them, and each time only selling a little bit, finding different buyers every time."

"If it weren't for the fact that our sect happened to be collecting related materials everywhere in Heaven Star City, I'm afraid we wouldn't have discovered the clues. Senior is afraid of revealing wealth! If so, Senior Han can dispel this concern. Although our sect is not a big force, our reputation in the Chaotic Star Sea has always been very good. Senior can sell all these materials to this little girl, which saves our sect the trouble of re-collecting them from other small merchants!"

The woman said a large pile of words with a smile, her demeanor appearing extremely calm, but Han Li's eyes flashed with cold light, revealing a trace of anger.

It was not a pleasant thing for anyone to be secretly investigated without prior knowledge!

Perhaps seeing Han Li's annoyance, this Madam Fan suddenly changed the subject and explained to Han Li again.

"Senior Han, don't blame this little girl for her previous rash behavior. This little girl was also because the matter was urgent that I had to mobilize most of the power of the sect in Heaven Star City to track down Senior. I hope Senior can help this little girl this once!"

When the woman said this, she had already placed herself in a weak position, and there was a faint hint of pleading in her words and gaze.

Hearing these words, Han Li's angry expression gradually faded.

He didn't say anything immediately, but tapped his index finger on the tea table in front of him, his face expressionless.

In fact, at this moment, various thoughts were spinning in Han Li's mind, quickly analyzing the pros and cons.

Although he didn't know why this woman or the Miaoyin Sect urgently needed a large amount of demon beast materials, the other party clearly believed that he had what they wanted, so he was afraid that denying it would be useless, and instead, he would have made an enemy for no reason.

He had never heard of the Miaoyin Sect. But judging from this Elder Zhao, their strength shouldn't be too weak.

Han Li didn't want to make an enemy for no reason.

Moreover, he had too many demon beast materials on hand, and always releasing them little by little would eventually be discovered by others. It would be better to take this opportunity to borrow their influence to handle them cleanly.

And this was Heaven Star City, where cultivators were strictly forbidden from fighting, so he wasn't afraid of the other party playing any tricks during the transaction.

Thinking of this, Han Li was silent for a moment, then said calmly:

"Since Madam has already said this, Han won't hide it anymore. Han does have some demon beast materials that your sect wants, but I don't know if the quantity is enough for Madam's needs!"

Hearing Han Li say words of admission, the woman opposite and the girl behind her both revealed joy, and even the old man who had been bowing his head and drinking tea, appearing like a master outside the world, glanced at Han Li with a look of great relief.

"How many does Senior have? This little girl will take as many as Senior has!" Madam Fan asked somewhat eagerly, her beautiful eyes full of anticipation.

Han Li smiled slightly and casually stated an astonishing number, which made the woman full of surprise.

Although she knew Han Li had quite a few, she didn't expect there to be so many.

With this, her mission could finally be completed!

"This little girl will take all these materials! I wonder when Senior will be free? Shall we trade today?" The straightforwardness of Han Li's words was exactly what the woman opposite wanted, and she nodded repeatedly with eyes full of surprise.

Han Li felt surprised by the woman's eagerness!

But he also wanted to get rid of these things early to avoid trouble, so after a little consideration, he said:

"Fine, let's trade here! Madam, prepare the spirit stones, and I will go and get the things." Han Li's clean and efficient style was exactly what the woman opposite wanted, and she nodded repeatedly with eyes full of surprise.

Han Li stood up calmly, said goodbye coldly, and walked out of the room with big strides.

After Han Li's figure disappeared from the doorway, the excitement in Madam Fan's eyes gradually faded.

She was silent for a while, then suddenly turned her head and asked the old man:

"Elder Zhao, what is this person's cultivation? I heard people say that this person just formed a Core not long ago and should not have had time to refine a magic treasure. If he were suddenly attacked, could you instantly subdue him? If you are sure, we could save a huge amount of spirit stones."

The woman said this coldly, and her elegant temperament changed completely, her expression becoming somewhat sinister, making people shudder!

"No! Although this person just formed a Core not long ago, the technique he practices is very unusual. Not only is his magic power extremely pure, but there is also a faint treasure aura leaking from his body. Either he has already refined a magic treasure to deceive people, or he has another magic treasure inherited from someone else. It cannot be underestimated!" Elder Zhao shook his head and opposed it.

"In that case, this person's strength should not be weak. Let's do this! In the action half a month later, we will drag him into the water together! If things go smoothly, we will sell him a favor and win him over. If it doesn't go smoothly, this person will just be a discarded pawn!" The woman said slowly with strange eyes.

"That is a good method! But I observe this person's words and actions; although he is young, he is composed and responsive, not someone who is easy to use. Are you sure? Do you want to use 'seduction'?" The old man said, revealing a look of displeasure.

Madam Fan glanced at the old man and suddenly laughed charmingly, her eyes full of charm.

"Hehe! Elder, you are jealous! Don't worry, except for you, I won't let any second man touch me in the entire Miaoyin Sect."

Then she pulled the light gauze on her face, revealing a stunningly beautiful face that could topple cities.

The old man's originally somewhat sickly face began to stare straight upon seeing the woman's true face, and his cheeks became even more flushed.

Seeing this scene, Madam Fan was very satisfied in her heart.

"Elder, you were seriously injured while covering for this little girl last time! This little girl has always kept it in mind!"

After saying these words, Madam Fan twisted her water-snake waist, and her full, graceful body slid into the arms of the old man a zhang away, and she stroked the old man's chest with a pair of slender jade hands.

At this moment, Madam Fan was full of spring, her big eyes watery, as if they were about to drip water, a true enchantress who would kill without paying for it.

The old man's breathing became rapid when Madam Fan's jade hands climbed onto his chest.

A pair of rough big hands were also not honest on the fragrant body.

This scene made the girl who was originally standing behind Madam Fan turn bright red, biting her lips and lowering her head tightly.

"Lian'er! You go out first, and when that person comes, come in and report!" Madam Fan said in a low voice, almost moaning.

"Yes."

The girl immediately responded as if she had been pardoned and backed out.

But before she gently closed the door, she faintly heard.

"This girl has become more and more watery in the past two years. Why don't you let me train her for two days, is it not better to keep the fat water from flowing into outsiders' fields?"

"Bah, dream on! I have use for Lian girl, don't you dare hit her idea! Don't you..."

Hearing the flirting sounds of the man and woman in the room clearly, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and slowly left the door.
