Chapter 714

After that, Daoist Xie returned to the Flower Branch Heavenly Grotto-Heaven.

After drinking a few cups of wine, Han Li put away his wine utensils with furrowed brows before making his way out of the guest room.

Within a guest room at the end of the third level of the ship, Magic Light was meditating with his legs crossed. All of a sudden, his brows furrowed as he spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Li, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come on in …"

The door of the room was opened, and Han Li strode in.

After closing the door, he set up an isolation restriction before asking, "You knew I was coming?"

Han Li looked around the guest room to find that it was much larger than his own room, and the decorations were more intricate as well. There was even a plate of inky-black fruits with fiery patterns all over their bodies on the table.

"I've just arrived here so I don't know the rules yet. Would fellow daoist Han please give me some advice and teach me how to behave?" Demonshine said with a smile as he stood up, grabbing a fruit and biting into it.

Purplish black juices flowed from the corners of his lips, and wisps of pure black baleful Qi immediately began to emanate from the juices.

Han Li's brows furrowed slightly as he looked at the handsome face that had manifested.

"You've lived for countless years, Fellow Daoist Magic Light, and you're far more experienced and knowledgeable than I am. On top of that, we're connected by a Heavenly Devil Contract, so I don't need to tell you what to do.

I came to find you because I have something else to ask you, "Han Li said in a seemingly nonchalant manner.

"Oh? Something else?" Magic Light's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this.

"You've seen the Rat Immortal corpse in the bamboo building, and I obtained this bone bracelet from him. It appears to be a storage treasure for Rat Immortals. I tried to refine it with my immortal spiritual power, but I was unable to do so.

After that, I tried to activate it with baleful Qi, but I was also unable to refine it, "Han Li said as he tossed a bone bracelet to Magic Light.

Magic Light took it and examined it carefully. Then, he said with a smile, "It is indeed a storage artifact …"

Then, he muttered a few incantations and a dense killing intent gushed out from his palm. It wrapped around the white bone bracelet and began to refine it.

After a while, the baleful aura in his hand dissipated, and the white bone bracelet reappeared. With a wave of his hand, a gray light gushed out and sprinkled on the ground.

A small pile of grey crystals fell to the ground, and a few Rat Immortal weapons and a bunch of strange Dust World spiritual materials appeared.

Han Li glanced around for a moment, raised his hand, and waved. Half of the pile of grey crystals flew into his storage bracelet, while the rest of the things were left on the ground.

"This is …" Magic Light was puzzled.

Han Li said in an indifferent voice, "Just take these, Fellow Daoist Magic Light. It's not like a high-grade cultivator from the Void Combination Tribe doesn't even have a storage treasure."

After saying that, he bade farewell, put away all the restrictions, and left.

Magic Light was left alone in the room. For a moment, he couldn't react. He muttered to himself, "The Heavenly Devil Contract, the white bone bracelet … Friend Han, you are trying to show kindness and might."

…

Time flew by, and more than three years had passed.

The Armored Warship that had been flying above the dark clouds finally lowered its altitude and once again descended below the dark clouds.

They had arrived at Youhe City.

Han Li and the people of the Three Miao Tribes stood on the deck of the warship and looked down.

On the plains, within a radius of thousands of miles, there were greyish white stone castles with round spires of different sizes everywhere. There were more than ten black rivers running through them.

The distance between these greyish white stone castles was not too far, and there were no city walls surrounding them. It looked like a relatively concentrated settlement that was formed by countless stone castles.

In the center of the settlement, there was a huge plaza and a cluster of densely packed stone castles.

Not long after, the Armored Warship landed on the plaza, and Han Li and the others flew down from it.

"It's still early. Senior, why don't you follow me to see my father, and then arrange for everyone to rest?" Miao Xiu walked at the front, leading the way, and said to Magic Light.

"The guest follows the host. Let's do as Miss Miao says." Magic Light said with a charming smile.

Han Li and Shi Chuankong followed behind him, looking like well-behaved henchmen. Even the way they looked around was much more restrained.

After the group passed through the plaza, they walked through many beautifully decorated corridors and came to a huge stone castle palace with more than ten steps in front of the door.

A grey-robed old man walked over and bowed to Miao Xiu with a face full of surprise. He said, "Miss, you're back?"

"Uncle Zhong, where is my father right now?" Miao Xiu smiled and returned the greeting.

The old man looked at Han Li and the others before turning to the side and pointing to the palace behind him. He said, "The lord is receiving guests in Miao Ying's palace. I'm afraid he won't be able to see you right now."

A hint of hesitation flashed through Miao Xiu's eyes when she heard this, and she said, "Is that so... Uncle Zhong, these people behind me are from the Illusionary Tribe. They saved my life before. Can you pass on a message and see if you can receive them first?"

"So these are the esteemed guests of the Illusionary Tribe?

Miss, please wait for a moment, I'll go pass on the message. "The grey-robed old man's eyes became extremely respectful when he heard this, and he hurriedly rushed towards the palace.

After a while, he jogged back and said to Miao Xiu, "The lord invites the esteemed guests into the palace for a chat."

Joy flashed through Miao Xiu's eyes. She immediately led Han Li and the others up the stairs and arrived in front of the palace.

When they were about to enter the palace, the door suddenly opened. A Youth from the Sanmiao Tribe led a tall, middle-aged man with a solemn expression out of the palace.

This person had two sword-like eyebrows and a pair of tiger-like eyes that were dignified without being angry. His killing intent was shockingly dense.

Seeing this, Han Li's pupils shrank and he exclaimed in his heart, "It's actually him?"

Although the person in front of him was wearing a black robe and his hair had turned grey, Han Li was certain that he was the first Dao Master of the Zhu Long Tao, Bai Liyan!

Back then, when he was fighting for the Tai Yi Pills in the Netherfrost Celestial Mansion, he had only met him once in a hurry. After that, they did not have any interactions. He did not expect that Bai Liyan had already come to the Dust World.

Han Li's thoughts moved like lightning. As his mind churned a few times, he had already passed by Bai Liyan. The latter's gaze was slightly restrained, and he did not even look at him. It was obvious that he did not recognize the current him.

Then, the old man had already pushed open the palace door and led them in.

As soon as they entered the palace, Han Li saw a middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes sitting in the direction of the main seat in the palace. His eyebrows and eyes were similar to Miao Xiu's, but his lips were 90% different. He was probably the lord of the Blacktooth Region, Miao Xiu.

There were a few people in black feathered robes standing beside the man. There were both men and women among them, and they all looked quite old. Their hair was white, and when they saw Miao Xiu, there was a benevolent smile in their eyes.

"Miao Xiu greets father and clan elders." Miao Xiu bowed and paid her respects.

"General Gu of the Illusionary Tribe greets lord Miao Gao."

Magic Light walked forward and placed one hand in front of his chest. He clenched his fist and lightly touched his shoulder as he spoke.

"Greetings, lord Miao Gao." Han Li and Miao Xiu bowed, just like Miao Xiu.

Miao Xiu had already stood up from his large chair. He similarly clenched his fist and lightly touched his shoulder twice to return the greeting to Magic Light.

He said, "The Gray-eyed Hawk has already returned in advance, and informed us of what happened by the Wave Edge Lake. Thank you, Brother Jiang, for saving the clans of the Blacktooth Region and my daughter, Miao Xiu.

Although the Blacktooth Region is a small clan, we also know the principle of repaying kindness. We have prepared a small gift, and hope that Brother Jiang will like it. "

As soon as he finished speaking, a white-haired old man beside him walked down from the hall, and presented a white bone ring with both hands.

"Then it would be impolite to refuse." Magic Light did not stand on ceremony at all, and accepted it with a smile.

"Why did Brother Jiang travel thousands of miles from the Shaohao Region to the Blacktooth Region?

If you have any needs, you can tell us directly. The Three Miao Tribes will do our best to help. "Miao Gao asked again after seeing Magic Light accept the white bone ring.

Magic Light did not reply immediately. He paused for a moment before saying, "I was traveling with my family members, and encountered an extremely powerful Great Demon on the way. We chased it all the way to the June Grassland, and then settled down in the Grey Lizard Clan.

I heard that they were about to hold a Tamuda Conference, so I went to join in the fun. "

"I see. Looks like Brother Jiang and I are fated to meet.

Oh right, I wonder what kind of Great Demon Brother Jiang is hunting? Can we help? "Miao Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked.

"That bastard has already escaped without a trace. Otherwise, we would not have settled down in the Grey Lizard Clan.

Now that it has come to this, there is no need to care too much about it. We can just continue with our unfinished journey. "Magic Light smiled indifferently, and said.

"Since you are traveling, there is no harm in staying in our Youhe City for a while. Let us show our hospitality as a host." Miao Xiu also smiled and said.

"Then I will have to trouble you." Magic Light immediately replied.

"Xiu Xiu, go and arrange the accommodations of the guests. Afterwards, come directly back to the Inner Residence." Miao Xiu looked at Miao Xiu and said.

"Understood."

After receiving the order, Miao Xiu brought Magic Light and Han Li out of the hall, and hurried to a stone castle at the back.

The surroundings of the building were filled with strange flowers. They were abnormally large, leafless, and emitted strands of black Evil Qi. The further they went into the building, the denser they were.

Han Li did not find this strange. In the Dust World, the Evil Qi was like the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth. The denser the place, the better it was for cultivation. Thus, as the guests, they were naturally arranged to stay in the place with the densest Evil Qi.

As expected, Miao Xiu stopped in front of a stone castle at the innermost part of the building.

"This is the palace where our Three Miao Tribes receive the most distinguished guests. My guests can rest assured and stay here. If you have any requests, just tell me directly." Miao Xiu revealed a smile and said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you." Demonshine said with a bright smile.

Miao Xiu still had to see her father, so she said goodbye and hurriedly left.

After Han Li and the others entered the palace, they each chose their own residence. Shi Chuang Kong went to his own room first.

Magic Light followed Han Li to his room.
