Chapter 645
"Didn't you see that when he was traveling with us, the flying sword he used to control his magic tool was clearly a top-tier magic tool. Net Moreover, I observed that he has many storage bags at his waist, all of them bulging, and some are even spirit beast bags. How could a rogue cultivator possibly possess such things? He is clearly a cultivator from some small sect out to gain experience. If he were from a large sect, he would be arrogant and would not have agreed to travel with us. Furthermore, when we were at Zidao Mountain, he also did not take out an invitation. Hehe! After all, the demonic path is powerful now, and some small sect cultivators naturally dare not act high-profile, all calling themselves rogue cultivators and becoming secretive. They are afraid of being looked upon unfavorably by the demonic path and having someone come to their door to destroy their inheritance. So, although this person's cultivation and magic tools are not weak, we have never heard of him," the short, fat cultivator analyzed with a look of triumph.
"Hearing Brother Luo say this, this guy surnamed Han is indeed like that. In that case, we can boldly make a move. Although this person is somewhat guarded against us, he definitely wouldn't think that the two of us have concealed our cultivation. With two Foundation Establishment mid-stage cultivation bases, destroying one early-stage cultivator shouldn't be a matter of reaching out and taking it. This kid can be considered to have sought his own death, actually bumping into us, the 'Peng-Yi Duo of Evil'; naturally, we cannot let him go," the bald, burly man's two bull-like eyes shot out an exceptionally greedy look, and he said while rubbing his hands.
"That goes without saying. However, to make it easier to succeed, we should try our best to lower this person's guard. If we succeed in a sneak attack, it will be much more worry-free than a head-on collision. So, as for making a move on him, let's drag it out until two days before the Fu family ancestor's birthday celebration. In these few days, we might as well pretend to be friendly with this person, and then suddenly use a finishing move to destroy him," the short, fat man licked his thick upper lip and said insidiously.
"Good, everything will be according to Brother Luo's words. It seems that even if we can't join any sect this time, our harvest will definitely not be small!" The bald, burly man seemed to be quite convinced by the short, fat cultivator, his big mouth grinning with a face full of joy.
"Hehe, that's for sure. With such a fat sheep coming to our door, how could we, the Peng-Yi Duo of Evil, return empty-handed," the short, fat man also laughed and said, quite intending to treat the disheveled cultivator as something already in his pocket.
Just as these two were wantonly discussing the matter of seizing treasures and killing people, in the other room separated by a wall, the disheveled cultivator sat cross-legged on the bed, his face neither sad nor happy. But the conversation of the "Peng-Yi Duo of Evil" entered his ears without missing a single word; that sound-insulation barrier was like nothing to the disheveled cultivator.
"Since you are actively seeking death, you can't blame me," the disheveled cultivator's eyes opened slightly. A cold glint flashed past, and he muttered in a low voice. Afterward, he closed his eyes again to breathe and cultivate Qi.
This disheveled cultivator was naturally Han Li, who had changed his appearance.
In fact, as early as two months ago, Han Li had arrived in the Yuanwu Kingdom. Although he passed through several countries controlled by the righteous and demonic paths along the way, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, as long as he didn't deliberately look for trouble, naturally no one could see through his true appearance and cultivation base. Naturally, the journey was uneventful.
After arriving in the Yuanwu Kingdom, he did not rely on his profound magic power to act rashly, but instead first tried to obtain some information about the Fu family from some local rogue cultivators and marketplaces.
As a result, the situation of the Fu family's power gave Han Li quite a headache.
This was not because the Fu family had three Core Formation cultivators, which made him feel very tricky. It was because quite a few Fu family disciples had actually joined the Demon Flame Sect. No matter how much he relied on his great divine abilities, he couldn't just go and slaughter the Demon Flame Sect directly.
And if these people were not eliminated, even if he turned the Fu family's main castle into ashes, the Fu family would always have a day to rise from the ashes. This would make it impossible to fulfill the promise he made to Xin Xin Ruyin back then!
Just as Han Li was planning to find another way, news spread throughout the Yuanwu Kingdom that the Fu family ancestor was about to hold a birthday celebration.
When Han Li heard this, he was naturally overjoyed.
Since the head of the Fu family was holding a birthday celebration, all the direct descendants would definitely go to offer congratulations, and even those Fu family members who had joined the Demon Flame Sect would return to Fu Family Castle one after another. This was a great opportunity to wipe out the Fu family's direct line in one fell swoop.
However, given the Fu family's current prestige, it wasn't something that any small cat or dog could enter. Those who went to offer birthday wishes were either cultivators from other families or envoys from various large and small sects attached to the demonic path. As for rogue cultivators, although they wouldn't be turned away, they at least needed to have a Foundation Establishment cultivation base to enter the castle.
After Han Li inquired clearly about the detailed situation, he waited unhurriedly for more than a month before calmly heading toward this place.
As for the "Peng-Yi Duo of Evil," they were met by Han Li halfway. As soon as these two saw that the magic tools Han Li used were extraordinary, they immediately struck up a conversation with great enthusiasm. And upon hearing that Han Li was also going to Fu Family Castle, they even more happily proposed traveling together.
Han Li saw at a glance that these two were mostly harboring evil intentions, but with his cultivation base, how could he be afraid of these two plotting against him? Instead, he planned to use these two people's identities to cover his tracks, making it easier to mix into the Fu family.
Thus, he agreed without a second thought.
But what he didn't expect was that today, outside Zidao Mountain, apart from those cultivators who possessed invitations, the rest of the rogue cultivators who came to congratulate the birthday celebration could only enter the castle on the day of the birthday celebration.
This made Han Li a bit surprised, but it was also a matter of no consequence.
After all, only on the day of the birthday celebration would all the Fu family disciples be gathered together. If he made a move early, there would instead be fish that slipped through the net.
Now that he had just settled down in this inn, he hadn't yet planned how to deal with the two short, fat cultivators, but these two actually couldn't wait to target him first. With a cold sneer in his heart, Han Li naturally had no intention of showing mercy.
In the following ten or so days, Han Li and the "Peng-Yi Duo of Evil" walked around some places nearby during the day, and at night they returned to the inn to sit in meditation and cultivate Qi. It was clear that there were only a few days left until the ancestor's birthday celebration.
During these days, these two were extremely affectionate toward Han Li, calling him "Brother Han" incessantly, as if they were old friends of many years.
And at this time, the number of rogue cultivators coming to congratulate the Fu family ancestor's birthday in the small city also increased. Although most rogue cultivators were accustomed to sleeping in the open, there were still some cultivators accustomed to enjoying worldly comforts who stayed in the only two inns in the city.
As a result, Han Li happened to meet several other rogue cultivators staying at the same inn. However, as soon as these cultivators saw the short, fat cultivator and the bald, burly man beside Han Li, their expressions changed drastically, and each of them hurriedly stayed far away from the three, unwilling to say more. This made Han Li feel somewhat dumbfounded; it seemed the reputations of the two beside him were indeed notorious among rogue cultivators.
Seeing this situation, the short, fat cultivator and his companion, fearing that Han Li would be suspicious, actually concocted a story about how they were at odds with these cultivators, and thus the two took turns pestering Han Li, not allowing him to contact other cultivators.
Han Li listened without expressing any opinion, which made the short, fat cultivator feel somewhat suspicious for a time and mutter to himself. But greed got the better of him, and he threw it to the back of his mind.
Two days later, the short, fat cultivator and the bald, burly man suddenly strongly invited Han Li to see a so-called scenic spot nearby, saying that the scenery there was good and exceptionally charming, and it would be a great pity to miss it.
After hearing this, Han Li knew that these two were finally prepared to make a move. Thus, he agreed in one breath, and then, amidst the two's smiling faces, the three of them left the inn together and headed straight for that so-called "scenic spot."
Because there were more and more cultivators nearby, these two also went to great lengths to take Han Li more than a hundred miles out of the small city in one go, landing in front of a quiet, uninhabited small mountain.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, the short, fat cultivator smiled and said to Han Li:
"Brother Han, do you see! As long as we pass this mountain, there will be a small valley, with a clear stream flowing in the valley and exotic flowers everywhere; it is absolutely..." Although this person's appearance wasn't much, his mouth was truly too good at talking, praising the valley as something that didn't exist in heaven and was hard to find on earth.
And Han Li, upon hearing this, sneered incessantly in his heart.
After passing this small mountain, there was indeed a hidden small valley, but in this valley, apart from the scenery being passable, there were faintly discernible spiritual energy fluctuations of a restriction. Although extremely weak, under his spiritual sense sweep, it entered his eyes. It seemed these two were truly veterans at killing people and seizing treasures. They had actually set up a simple trap formation in this small valley.
If Han Li were truly an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, being tricked into this formation and then being sneak-attacked by these two when they turned hostile, his life would naturally be hard to preserve.
"The scenery here is good, and no one comes here, so I think there's no need to go to any small valley. Here will do; what do you two think? If we kill someone here and then destroy the body and wipe out the traces, no one would be disturbed at all, and even less would anyone discover it, right!" After Han Li finished listening to the short, fat cultivator's bragging, he swept his gaze around casually and suddenly said to the two with a half-smile.
"Brother Han, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you have misunderstood something about us two brothers?" When the short, fat cultivator heard Han Li's words, his expression changed slightly, but he immediately said with a face full of surprise. It was as if he were truly deeply astonished!
However, one of his chubby, fleshy hands didn't know when it had pressed onto the storage bag at his waist.
As for the bald, burly man, after a start, a ferocious look flashed in his eyes, and then he silently gripped his two giant hands and quietly circled to one side of Han Li.
Han Li acted as if he didn't see the two's small movements, just standing in place with his hands behind his back, his expression extremely calm.
Seeing this, the short, fat cultivator was surprised and felt very uneasy in his heart, faintly feeling that something was not right. But things had reached this point, and he couldn't retreat. He could only secretly give a look to the giant man, and the two were about to make a move together.
