Chapter 402: Red Fire Old Monster
"Nangong Wan!" Han Li finally found the source of that ripple.
Although this female cultivator named Zhuo Zhuo Ruting's appearance was different from Nangong Wan's, she indeed had some of Nangong Wan's charm, which touched his heart.
After understanding the reason, Han Li looked at Zhuo Zhuo Ruting with a complex expression before withdrawing his gaze, returning to a calm state of mind.
However, even though Han Li and Qu Hun had arrived, Madam Fan and Zhuo Zhuo Ruting still didn't intend to set off immediately, but looked at the sky from time to time, seemingly still waiting for someone.
Seeing this scene, Han Li was somewhat puzzled, but didn't ask, instead finding a remote corner to sit down with Qu Hun and wait for the time to set off.
This wait lasted for half a day.
If it weren't for the fact that everyone present was a cultivator with sufficient patience, someone would have complained long ago.
However, even so, someone finally revealed a look of dissatisfaction.
Seeing this scene, Madam Fan and Zhuo Zhuo Ruting also revealed a bit of anxiety and reluctantly gathered together to discuss something in a low voice.
Han Li took all this into his eyes and was just guessing who they were waiting for when suddenly a sound of wind and thunder was heard, and a line of black color appeared on the horizon.
This black color approached rapidly, causing the cultivators who were meditating to stand up one after another, looking over with surprised and suspicious expressions.
I saw that in the blink of an eye, the black color arrived above everyone. Only then did Han Li and the others see clearly that this black color was actually a giant black cloud about fifty or sixty zhang in diameter. Its area was so large that it almost covered the entire mountain top, and from time to time, rumbling sounds and lightning sparks were emitted from the cloud, making it look even more strange!
Everyone was staring blankly when suddenly a cold female voice came from the cloud.
"Senior Chi, you can put me down, I have a few words to say to my two Senior Sisters."
"Hehe, of course, no problem!" A harsh, clanging voice replied.
Hearing the voices of these two people, Madam Fan and Zhuo Zhuo Ruting's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at each other.
Other cultivators who knew the origin of this cloud had their faces turn blue.
Han Li was also secretly shocked, and just as he was puzzled, he didn't know which cultivator among them muttered a sentence.
"The Miaoyin Sect really has great ability, how did they invite the Red Old Monster of Yuan Turtle Island!"
This person's voice was very low, but Han Li, relying on his powerful spiritual sense, heard it clearly, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Once terms like "Yuan Turtle Island" and "Red Fire Old Monster" entered his ears, Han Li immediately thought of the origin of the black cloud.
He had heard the name of "Red Fire Old Monster of Yuan Turtle Island" more than once when chatting with other cultivators.
This person became famous very early and had reached the Core Formation late-stage level. His Sunflower Water Demon Technique was unpredictable, and he was famous in the "Chaotic Star Sea" for being ruthless and fickle.
Many people asserted that this Red Old Monster was one of the cultivators most likely to enter the Nascent Soul stage and would sooner or later become a giant like the Extreme Yin Ancestor. Therefore, dominating Yuan Turtle Island alone, no one dared to provoke him easily. He could be considered a famous figure.
But how could such a famous demon cultivator come here? Was he really invited by the Miaoyin Sect to help?
Han Li raised his vigilance without changing his expression and stared at the black cloud.
At this time, the black cloud rolled, and a purple-robed palace woman flew out from inside.
This woman had a slender figure and a graceful posture, but her face was covered in faint purple energy, making it impossible to see her true face.
Madam Fan and Zhuo Zhuo Ruting saw this woman appear and immediately greeted her.
"Junior Sister Wang, how did the Red Old Monster come here? Was it invited by you? But there is no need for this!" Zhuo Zhuo Ruting frowned and asked in a low voice.
"Yes! This old monster is not easy to provoke. With the manpower we have now, it is completely enough!" Madam Fan also said with a solemn expression, and there was a faint hint of dissatisfaction.
"Do the two Senior Sisters really think that the cultivators who robbed the goods last time were all the people on the other side?" The purple-robed woman didn't care about the two women's worries, but said lightly.
"Yes, what do you mean by this, Junior Sister? Does the other party have other tricky characters?" Madam Fan was startled upon hearing this, and immediately asked in surprise, understanding the purple-robed woman's meaning.
Zhuo Zhuo Ruting also revealed a look of surprise.
"I received news that there is a Core Formation late-stage leader sitting in the other party's lair. With the helpers gathered by the two Senior Sisters alone, it is still a bit weak, so I went to Yuan Turtle Island and persuaded the Red Fire Old Monster to take action!" The purple-robed woman said lightly.
Hearing these words, Madam Fan and the two women looked at each other with half-belief and half-doubt, then didn't say anything.
Although they also knew that the price paid by this Junior Sister to persuade the Red Fire Old Monster to take action must be huge. But now was not the time to discuss these things, so they could only consider other things after this matter was over.
At this time, the purple-robed woman's beautiful eyes had scanned all the other cultivators on the mountain top, nodded, seemingly extremely satisfied.
"The Core Formation cultivators invited by the two Senior Sisters are more than I expected. Plus the help of the Red Fire Old Monster, this trip must wipe out these evil cultivators to avenge the death of my mother!" The purple-robed woman's voice became extremely cold, filled with endless murderous intent.
"Don't worry, the two of us will definitely avenge the Sect Master!" Zhuo Zhuo Ruting brushed her black hair and said slowly.
"That's right, the Sect Master has great kindness to both of us, even if we lose our lives, we will wipe out the other party." Madam Fan also said solemnly for the first time.
Hearing these words, the purple-robed woman was somewhat moved and bowed deeply to the two women.
"This time, I have to thank the two Senior Sisters for their great efforts! Just like what was agreed upon beforehand, as long as I can avenge my mother, the position of the Miaoyin Sect Master will be taken by one of the two Senior Sisters! Wang Ning will never covet this position!" The palace woman said with determination.
After these words were spoken, a complex look appeared on Zhuo Zhuo Ruting's beautiful face, and she opened her cherry lips as if wanting to say something, but still didn't say it.
And Madam Fan, upon hearing this, although her expression remained calm, a trace of excitement that couldn't be hidden appeared in her eyes.
"Tsk tsk! I suppose this is the peerless beauty of the Miaoyin Sect, Purple Spirit Fairy! It's a pity that magic was cast on her face, it's really a pity!" A cultivator surnamed Meng, standing not far from Han Li, suddenly muttered to himself.
Han Li was startled upon hearing this.
He seemed to have heard the name of Purple Spirit Fairy before. It was said that her appearance was as beautiful as a heavenly being, one of the most famous beauties in the "Chaotic Star Sea." Could it be this woman?
Han Li looked at the purple-robed woman twice from afar with some surprise.
At this time, the purple-robed woman and Madam Fan had finished talking, and they flew back to the black cloud like a heavenly maiden.
Then, under the solemn expressions of the two beautiful sect envoys, everyone finally set off.
A dozen rays of light flew out from the mountain peak, forming a loose formation, and flew toward the north.
Han Li and Qu Hun were in the middle and back of the team, heading on their way silently.
But the cultivator surnamed Meng, for some reason, flew to Han Li's side and kept talking to him.
"How did Fellow Daoist Han agree to Fan Left Envoy's request? Meng came because one of my concubines is a direct disciple of Fan Left Envoy, so I had to return this favor. Is Fellow Daoist also..."
"I don't have such good fortune as you, Fellow Daoist. Madam Fan just promised to give me something when the time comes!" Han Li said indifferently.
"That's a real pity! Brother, the best things in the Miaoyin Sect are naturally those beautiful female disciples. Especially the disciples personally trained by the two sect envoys, that is really..."
Hearing these chatterings, although Han Li remained calm, he felt a bit dumbfounded in his heart.
However, this kind of familiar talk made him recall the chatter of Senior Brother Yu from the Yellow Maple Valley, which really made him unable to feel any malice toward this person.
Thus, with Han Li responding occasionally, the entire team, led by the people of the Miaoyin Sect, flew toward an unknown place.
Half a month later, the team finally arrived at a desolate island.
On this island, several other low-tier disciples of the Miaoyin Sect had been waiting for a long time, and the lair of that group of robbers was on another nameless island not far from here, and other disciples were watching them!
Upon learning that all the evil cultivators were in the lair and hadn't gone out, the Purple Spirit Fairy, who flew out from the black cloud again, immediately asked Han Li and the other cultivators to rest for a while, and only launch a sneak attack early tomorrow morning when the other party was unprepared.
