Chapter 745: Adopted Sister

"Brother Lu, has your sect still not received any news of Elder Han?" A crane-haired old man sitting opposite Lu Luo suddenly asked Lu Luo politely.

This Nascent Soul early-stage cultivator named Xu Xu Changjing was an elder of the "Water Shadow Sect" of the Heavenly Dao Alliance and had only arrived at Tianyi City yesterday. He had met Lu Luo a few times before.

"Not for the time being. Why, is Brother Xu also very concerned about Junior Brother Han's matter?" Lu Luo was stunned at first, but then replied with a smile.

"Haha! This is natural. Judging by Brother Lu's meaning, it seems other fellow Daoists have asked the same question. This is no wonder; before I arrived at Tianyi City, my ears were already full of rumors about this Fellow Daoist Han. Tsk tsk! Being able to escape from the hands of a Mulan Divine Master with an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivation base is not something we can do. And I also heard that some people say this Fellow Daoist Han actually just condensed his Nascent Soul in the last few years. I don't know if this is true or false. If so, it's even more shocking." Xu Xu Changjing replied with a smile.

Upon hearing this from the crane-haired old man, the other cultivators looked at each other and also showed interest, looking at Lu Luo.

They naturally had heard some rumors about Han Li, but they really hadn't heard anyone say that Han Li was a newly advanced Nascent Soul cultivator.

"This? Junior Brother Han did indeed advance to the Nascent Soul stage not long ago." Lu Luo hesitated, but then thought that others already knew about this, so he admitted it without hiding.

"Hiss!"

The other cultivators in the hall couldn't help but be moved, and two of them even gasped.

"Elder Han has such abilities at such a young age; he must have a great chance of advancing to the late stage in the future. I, Xu, congratulate Brother Lu first. The prosperity of the Falling Cloud Sect is just around the corner. By then, our Heavenly Dao Alliance will also add a Great Cultivator!" Xu Xu Changjing was also secretly surprised, and his words carried a hint of envy.

The others were about the same, and besides envy, they also said a few words of flattery.

Lu Luo felt somewhat proud in his heart. But naturally, he was humble in his words.

"However, Brother Lu. Although Elder Han escaped from the Divine Master's hands, he must have been seriously injured. Otherwise, why hasn't he appeared for such a long time? Brother Lu should send more people to look for him. If there are not enough people, our sect can send some disciples to assist." Another middle-aged man with a pair of mourning eyebrows frowned and said, his voice slightly cold.

"I don't know much about this. However, I think his vitality must have been damaged. He must be hiding somewhere to recuperate." Lu Luo felt a tightness in his heart upon hearing this. But his expression remained unchanged as he said indifferently.

Lu Luo was also a human essence who had lived for hundreds of years; how could he not hear the jealousy in the other party's words?

This mourning-eyebrow cultivator was an elder of the "Luanming Sect," the largest sect of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. The couple who could contend with the three great cultivators of the Heavenly Dao Alliance were the two elders of the Luanming Sect. Otherwise, how could the Luanming Sect stand out among the sects of the Heavenly Dao Alliance?

Now that he heard that the Falling Cloud Sect elder might advance to the late-stage Nascent Soul in the future, he naturally felt uncomfortable and splashed some cold water.

But on the surface, the mourning-eyebrow cultivator looked very concerned, making it impossible for others to say anything.

Just as the atmosphere was somewhat awkward, a red light suddenly flew in from outside the door. After circling, it shot toward Lu Luo.

Everyone was stunned.

Lu Luo himself was also full of surprise. But he still beckoned to the red light.

Instantly, the red light transformed into a ball of raging fire and fell into Lu Luo's hand.

Lu Luo immersed his spiritual sense into it, but a moment later, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Junior Brother Han of our sect has already entered the city. He is currently at our sect's stronghold. I will take my leave first." Lu Luo suppressed the excitement in his heart and explained to the others before leaving in a hurry.

Watching Lu Luo's figure leave in a hurry, the other cultivators in the hall looked at each other, with various expressions.

No one expected that they had just mentioned that Elder Han, and he appeared immediately.

Xu Xu Changjing stroked his beard, a thoughtful look appearing on his face. And the mourning-eyebrow middle-aged man had an unchanged expression, but if one observed carefully, one would find a gloomy look flashing deep in his eyes.

Although Tianyi City was a newly built stone city, all sects, large and small, of the four major forces had places to stay.

It was divided into four major areas according to the sphere of influence.

As for the central area, it was naturally a public area. Some well-known loose cultivators could stay here.

The Heavenly Dao Alliance was in the West District of the stone city, and the Falling Cloud Sect was in the southernmost part of the West District, occupying a large area of dozens of mu.

This time, there were more than two hundred disciples of the Falling Cloud Sect who came to support, all of whom were Foundation Establishment stage disciples or above, and there were six or seven Core Formation cultivators, almost occupying most of the strength of the Falling Cloud Sect.

Now in the main hall of the Falling Cloud Sect stronghold, Han Li was sitting on a wooden chair in the middle of the hall, with one hand supporting his chin, his expression indifferent.

On his left and right stood a man and a woman. It was the red-shirted old man who was the peak master of Fire Cloud Peak and the woman surnamed Song of White Phoenix Peak.

The red-shirted old man looked respectful, and the woman surnamed Song also stood with her hands tied, but a complex expression was hidden on her face, and her bright eyes were turning, not knowing what she was thinking.

Just at this moment, Lu Luo walked in from outside the hall in a hurry, and upon seeing Han Li on the wooden chair, he stepped forward with great joy.

"Junior Brother Han, you have finally returned. Not appearing for more than half a year, it really worried me and Senior Brother."

"I have troubled Senior Brother. I damaged some vitality that day, and I had no choice but to wait for a period of recuperation. It was I who heard the news of Tiantian City falling, which really worried me about Senior Brother." Han Li stood up from the chair, smiled, and said lightly.

"It's good that nothing happened. Oh, where are the other Junior Nephews! Why don't they come out to pay respects to Junior Brother Han?" Lu Luo's face showed a look of relief, but his face sank as he asked after scanning left and right.

"Reporting to Uncle, Junior Brother Yu and the others are on duty today, and are currently integrating those loose cultivators." The red-shirted old man replied respectfully.

"Oh! So that's how it is. That can't be blamed on them." Lu Luo's face softened upon hearing this.

At this moment, Han Li smiled and opened his mouth:

"I only discovered after returning this time that I had actually become a famous person. There seem to be quite a few rumors about me."

On the way, he happened to hear some cultivators discussing him, which surprised him greatly!

"Haha! I was just about to tell Junior Brother about this... You two go down. I want to chat with your Uncle Han alone." Lu Luo laughed, but after turning his eyes to the red-shirted old man and the woman, he ordered indifferently.

These two naturally didn't dare to disobey and hurriedly agreed to retreat. It was just that the woman surnamed Song looked at Han Li again before going out.

And Han Li felt somewhat puzzled, but his expression didn't change, as if he hadn't noticed anything.

The woman surnamed Song had been acting strangely since seeing him, as if she had something to say to him. But she had been hesitating.

Han Li, feeling strange, didn't intend to ask actively.

"Junior Brother, you hid it from me and Senior Brother so bitterly. With such great abilities, why didn't you reveal it earlier?" As soon as the two juniors retreated, Lu Luo complained with a bitter smile without saying anything else.

"I did indeed just condense my Nascent Soul. Senior Brother knows this, so how can we talk about any great abilities? The rumors are just exaggerated." Han Li shook his head and said helplessly.

"Alright. Junior Brother doesn't need to be humble. Although the Mulan Divine Master is an enemy, his evaluation of you definitely cannot be too far off. However, what surprised me and Senior Brother even more is that Junior Brother could actually abduct a Nascent Soul female cultivator from the Yanyue Sect. This is what makes Senior Brother admire you the most." Lu Luo smiled, saying with a strange smile.

"Why, has Senior Brother seen Wan'er?" Han Li's expression changed upon hearing this, and he asked with some concern.

When they parted, he gave Nangong Wan a jade slip explaining his identity, and briefly mentioned Nangong Wan's identity vaguely. But now, hearing Lu Luo's meaning, he seemed to know everything clearly.

"Yes! Fairy Nangong has already told everything to Senior Brother Cheng. And Junior Brother doesn't need to worry about anything now." Lu Luo seemed to see Han Li's worry and said with a smile.

"What does Senior Brother Lu mean by this..." Han Li frowned, somewhat understanding but also somewhat puzzled.

"Junior Brother doesn't know. Several months ago, the Yanyue Sect suddenly spread the news that Fairy Nangong had died because of practicing cultivation techniques and going into qi deviation. The engagement with Wei Wei Lichen of the Huayi Sect was naturally dissolved. And Senior Brother Cheng recognized a female cultivator named Wan'er as his adopted sister. And he intends to marry her to Junior Brother as a dual cultivation partner. I wonder what Junior Brother thinks?" Lu Luo blinked and said with a smile.

"Wan'er recognized Senior Brother Cheng as her adopted brother?" Han Li was dumbfounded.

"Not bad. Senior Brother has already said it. We will just wait until we repel the Tiannan cultivators, and then we will openly hold a dual cultivation ceremony for you and his adopted sister. By then, even if some people have doubts, the rice is already cooked, so do they really dare to offend the entire Heavenly Dao Alliance and come to the door? Not to mention, Junior Brother's reputation is also no small matter now. People from the Huayi Sect and the Yanyue Sect will mostly pretend not to know about this." Lu Luo said confidently.

After listening to these words, Han Li's expression was complex and he was silent for a while. After a long time, he sighed lightly and said slowly:

"This time, for Han's matter, I have troubled the two Senior Brothers. I will keep this favor in my heart."

Although Han Li only said a few simple words, it made Lu Luo very happy. He and Senior Brother had racked their brains, and finally, they had made this Junior Brother Han accept their favor.

With these words, it was estimated that it would be impossible for the Yellow Maple Valley to pull Han Li away.

"Haha! Junior Brother Han and we are all family, why be so polite. By the way, Fairy Nangong heard that Junior Brother was missing and was a bit anxious, and originally wanted to rush here herself, but she was finally persuaded by Senior Brother Cheng with great difficulty. After all, there are many cultivators from the Yanyue Sect and the Huayi Sect here. Before officially holding the dual cultivation ceremony with Junior Brother, Fairy Nangong should not meet these people. As for that concubine of Junior Brother, I have also asked other disciples to escort her back. The great battle is about to start here, it's really too dangerous." Lu Luo said with intimacy.
