Chapter 400: Heaven Thunder Bamboo

Han Li left the tea house and didn't fly back to his cave dwelling immediately. Instead, he walked a distance along the street and suddenly turned to the back of another shop, which was not far from the tea house.

Afterward, he closed his eyes lightly and remained motionless with an expressionless face.

After a while, Han Li's expression moved, and after frowning, he opened his eyes.

Just now, he had secretly sent his spiritual sense back to the tea house, wanting to hear what the other party would say after he left. But he didn't expect that as soon as his spiritual sense approached the single room in the tea house, it was blocked by a layer of restrictions.

This restriction wasn't very clever. If Han Li relied on the strength of his spiritual sense to forcefully break through, it would be easy to do so.

But doing so would cause too much of a stir, losing the original intention of using spiritual sense to peek. Han Li naturally wouldn't do such a thankless task, so he withdrew his spiritual sense.

"It seems the Miaoyin Sect is truly not an ordinary force, and there are no loopholes to exploit for the time being."

Thinking this, Han Li opened his mouth, spat out a green little sword about an inch long, and flew into the sky on the sword.

Returning to the mansion, Han Li took out the storage bag containing the demon beast materials from the secret room, and then, for the sake of caution, called Qu Hun and left the cave dwelling together.

This round trip took Han Li a full few hours.

But fortunately, when he returned to the tea house with Qu Hun, the middle-aged man under Madam Fan was standing at the entrance of the tea house, waiting anxiously.

Seeing Han Li return, he immediately ran up to him with joy and ran inside.

Han Li knew that the other party was going to report to Madam Fan, so he didn't care and followed inside unhurriedly with Qu Hun.

When they reached the single room in the tea house, the girl and the middle-aged man were already standing at the door respectfully waiting for Han Li.

"The mistress and the Elder are waiting for Senior!" The girl said respectfully, but while speaking, she glanced at Qu Hun curiously.

Han Li didn't intend to introduce Qu Hun, nodded, and walked into the room without ceremony, with Qu Hun following closely behind.

The girl hesitated but didn't dare to step forward to ask.

Inside the room, Madam Fan had put on her veil again. Seeing Han Li enter, she greeted him gracefully with a smile.

"Senior Han came really fast! This little girl thought I would have to wait a while longer. Eh, this Senior is..." Madam Fan was originally smiling, but after seeing Qu Hun behind Han Li, she was startled.

"This is my good friend Qu Hun. He heard about this and wanted to come and see. Madam wouldn't mind, would you?" Han Li laughed and said lightly.

"Of course not, two Seniors, please sit!"

Madam Fan turned her beautiful eyes around Qu Hun's ugly face, and seeing his cold appearance, she smiled charmingly.

But in her heart, she was secretly rejoicing that she hadn't really planned to take action before, otherwise, the other party would have suddenly popped out a Core Formation stage helper, and the plan would definitely not have succeeded and would have instead provoked a great enemy.

However, this woman's intention to win over Han Li became even stronger.

"The materials are all inside, Madam can take a look first!" Han Li didn't beat around the bush and threw the two storage bags containing the materials onto the tea table in front of the other party.

Seeing this, Madam Fan couldn't hide the joy on her face, thanked him repeatedly, took the storage bags, checked them roughly with her spiritual sense, and handed them to Elder Zhao on the side.

The old man took the items calmly, took out the materials from the storage bags one by one, and examined them carefully to verify their authenticity.

Because there were too many materials, this process naturally wouldn't be very fast. This Madam Fan of the Miaoyin Sect chatted with Han Li with a spring-filled face, and in her words, she inadvertently wanted to inquire about the origin of these materials.

But Han Li was a person with a flexible mind, and he had been circling around the woman, naturally making her gain nothing.

After a period of time, Elder Zhao finally finished counting the materials and estimated a price, which he transmitted to the Miaoyin Sect woman.

After hearing this, the woman pondered for a while, then lowered the price by about ten percent and reported it to Han Li.

Hearing the new offer, Han Li pondered, and this change made Madam Fan somewhat uneasy.

In order to complete this deal, she hesitated for a while, then gritted her teeth and took the initiative to add another half percent to the price.

After hearing the new offer, Han Li nodded in agreement.

Although he knew the price given by the other party was still a bit low, he was very satisfied to be able to handle these things cleanly at once.

Seeing Han Li agree, Madam Fan felt a great sense of relief in her heart.

Then, she poured a small pile of mid-tier spirit stones from the storage bag on her body and pushed them to Han Li.

Han Li accepted them without ceremony.

With this, the transaction was successfully completed, and both sides were quite satisfied.

Han Li prepared to stand up and say goodbye.

"This little girl heard that Senior has been looking for some exotic spiritual bamboo everywhere. This little girl happens to know some news about this, I wonder if Senior is interested in hearing a bit?" Madam Fan said this as if it were very casual.

Hearing this, Han Li was shocked in his heart and couldn't help but look at the other party.

At this moment, Madam Fan's beautiful eyes also smiled and met Han Li's, with a strange brilliance hidden in her gaze.

This master of charm techniques from the Miaoyin Sect intended to take advantage of Han Li's shock to secretly plant a seed in the depths of his heart, so that he would slowly submit to her inadvertently in the future.

As a result, as soon as their gazes met, Han Li felt that there was a thick spring in the woman's eyes, which made people deeply attracted after looking at it, and actually had a feeling of sinking into it and being unable to extricate themselves.

"Charm technique!"

Almost at the same time his mind almost lost its defense, this thought flashed through Han Li's mind like lightning.

Instantly, Han Li felt a chill in his heart, and his eyes suddenly became extremely cold, the coldness of which made Madam Fan, who was casting the fox charm technique on Han Li, feel a chill in her heart, and her fox charm technique actually failed instantly.

In shock, Madam Fan hurriedly wanted to shift her gaze away. But for some reason, her entire head above her neck became wooden, unable to move at all, and she couldn't even open her mouth.

"Backlash of the technique!"

Madam Fan thought of this and was scared out of her wits, desperately trying to break free from the counter-control of Han Li's gaze!

"What are you doing to Fan Left Envoy?"

Elder Zhao at this time saw Madam Fan's abnormality, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he was about to walk over with big strides.

But a figure flashed before his eyes, and Qu Hun disappeared from one side and appeared in front of him, his movement so strange that it made the old man feel a shock in his heart, not knowing whether he should take action.

At this time, the Fan Madam in his mouth struggled several times and couldn't break free, staring at Han Li with eyes devoid of charm, leaving only a look of bitter pleading, looking pitiful as if hoping Han Li would show mercy.

"Hmph!"

Han Li snorted coldly, and the chill in his eyes finally receded.

With this, the woman felt as if she had been pardoned and hurriedly shifted her gaze. But at the same time, she couldn't help but open her small mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, staining the light gauze on her face.

"Fan Left Envoy, you..." Elder Zhao saw this, his eyebrows stood up, and he glared at Han Li with his beard and hair bristling, looking like he was about to take action.

"Elder Zhao, don't be angry! Senior Han showed mercy, this little girl just felt a bit of blood rushing to her heart, and she feels much better after spitting this blood!" Madam Fan said with a forced smile, hurriedly stopping the old man's reckless action.

Hearing this, the old man's expression eased slightly, and he returned to normal.

"I really didn't expect that Senior is also a master proficient in 'Soul-Bewitching Technique'! This little girl's test just now was truly reckless, and I hope Senior won't blame me. But this little girl does indeed know the whereabouts of a small section of 'Heaven Thunder Bamboo'." The woman looked at Han Li with eyes still carrying a trace of fear, and took the initiative to speak of this matter for fear that Han Li would pursue the matter just now.

"Heaven Thunder Bamboo!"

Han Li's cold face revealed a look of being moved after hearing Madam Fan's words.

"The Heaven Thunder Bamboo known as one of the three great divine woods?" Han Li couldn't care about pursuing the matter just now, and asked with some disbelief, but his words still carried a trace of excitement.

Although he wanted to use unusual bamboo to refine magic treasures, he had never dreamed that he could use the three great divine woods to refine them!

Wasn't it said that the three great divine woods had long been extinct?

"Yes, it is indeed Heaven Thunder Bamboo! Speaking of which, this divine object was something this little girl handled personally, and it is absolutely this object, no mistake." Madam Fan took out a small jade bottle, took a pill, and after recovering some spirit, said very affirmatively.

"Has this object already been sold to someone else?" Han Li stared at the woman, his voice turning cold again.

At the same time, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, could it be that this woman still hadn't learned her lesson and wanted to borrow a knife to kill someone?

"No. This object was originally intended to be handed over to the Heaven Star City auction house for auction, but unexpectedly, this object, along with a large batch of goods from our sect, was robbed halfway. But our sect has now found the hiding place of these people, and we are preparing to invite some fellow Daoists to wipe them out in one go!" Madam Fan hesitated for a while, but still spoke in an honest manner.
