"His Highness the Third Prince sent a message saying that he has already sent someone over to receive us. They should arrive in about half a month," Elder Qi said.

"Do you know who Third Brother sent?" Shi Chuankong's eyes lit up.

"I don't know either, His Highness did not say." Elder Qi shook his head.

"No matter who it is, with Third Brother's people accompanying us, the road ahead will be much easier." Shi Chuankong was slightly disappointed, but then he said excitedly.

Han Li was slightly relieved when he heard this.

"Since Third Brother's people won't arrive for a while, then we'll wait here for a while and take care of those foreign merchant companies.

Fellow Li, you should take this opportunity to rest. "Shi Chuankong said.

"That's fine." Han Li nodded and stood up.

Elder Qi called a maidservant in green clothes who was about 16 years old and brought Han Li to rest.

Han Li knew that they had something to discuss, so he stood up and left.

"Young Master, is this fellow Li really trustworthy?" Elder Qi asked immediately after Han Li left.

"Rest assured, Elder Qi, Fellow Li is not from the Sanctuary, but a good friend I made in the Immortal Region. We have known each other for many years, and I have been saved by him several times. There is absolutely no problem." Shi Chuankong waved his hand and said.

"That's good, but this person seems to be only at the Early-stage of Primordial Unity. He is too weak. I will arrange a few more guards for your safety." Elder Qi's face relaxed at first, but then he frowned and said.

"Speaking of this, you don't have to worry. Although we have many experts under us, in terms of strength, no one can be compared to him.

I have Fellow Li and Third Brother's people to protect me. It is enough. It is not good to have too many people. "Shi Chuankong smiled again.

Elder Qi frowned and wanted to say something but stopped.

"Alright, I will consider this matter. Tell me about the situation of those businesses." Shi Chuankong interrupted him and said.

"Yes." Elder Qi nodded helplessly and began to report.

Han Li followed the maidservant to a courtyard at the back of the mansion. The place was not big, and the decorations were not luxurious, but it gave people a sense of seclusion.

"Senior, this is your residence. If there's anything you need help with, feel free to let me know. I'll be right outside," the maidservant said obediently.

Han Li looked around the courtyard and was very satisfied.

"What's your name?" He suddenly turned to look at the green-robed maidservant, a misty light flashing in his eyes.

"I'm Lian 'er."

The maidservant in green looked into Han Li's eyes. Her gaze seemed to be attracted to Han Li, unable to move away. Her voice was a little dazed as she spoke.

"What kind of person is your thirteenth prince?" Han Li continued to ask.

"The thirteenth prince doesn't like to fight for power. He's only interested in doing business. He left the city a long time ago. He's also very nice to us servants. He doesn't have the arrogance of a prince. Everyone in the city loves him …" the maidservant said in a confused tone.

Han Li asked a few more questions, and the misty light in his eyes dissipated. The green-robed maid's expression immediately returned to normal.

"Alright, you may leave." Han Li waved his hand to dismiss him.

"Yes." The maidservant nodded and retreated from the small courtyard with a calm expression.

Han Li stood in the same place and watched the maidservant leave with a thoughtful look on his face.

The information he had obtained from the maidservant was basically the same as Shi Chuankong's usual behavior. It seemed that he was overthinking things.

He then shook his head and no longer thought about it. He spread out his Divine Sense and carefully explored every corner of the courtyard. Then, he made a hand seal.

Rays of green light fell on various parts of the courtyard. They were actually array flags. Soon, a green light curtain spread out and enveloped the courtyard.

After doing this, he turned around and walked into his bedroom, sitting cross-legged.

After a while, Han Li's body emitted a five-colored light. Using the Sumeru Sense as the general principle, he started to practice the Five Elements Fantasy Art.

At the same time, the power of Divine Sense in his mind started to circulate again. He continued to practice the fifth layer of the Spirit Cultivation Art.

After experiencing the previous attacks, Han Li felt that the future was more and more dangerous. He didn't want to waste even a second. He wanted to improve his strength as much as possible.

Time passed by slowly. In the blink of an eye, about half a month had passed.

Han Li suddenly opened his eyes. There was a flash of joy in his eyes.

Perhaps it was because he was in a foreign land and the pressure of unknown dangers had stimulated his potential. He had gained a lot from this half a month of hard work.

Especially after he broke through the bottleneck in the Evil Cleansing Pool, his Spirit Cultivation Art cultivation was unusually smooth. These days, he felt that he was advancing at a tremendous pace.

"Looking at the time, it's about time."

Han Li muttered to himself. He made a hand seal to withdraw the restriction in the small courtyard. He then got up and walked out of the courtyard.

The maidservant in green was waiting outside the courtyard quietly. When she saw Han Li coming out, she quickly bowed and said, "Senior, the thirteenth prince is asking for you."

"Bring me there," Han Li nodded slightly.

The maidservant in green responded and led Han Li to the front. Soon, they arrived at the hall.

Shi Chuankong and Elder Qi were both here. Other than the two of them, there were three other people.

These three people were two men and one woman. All of them were Taiyi cultivators.

The person in the middle was a black-faced old man in a green demonic armor. His eyes darted around from time to time, giving people a feeling that he was a cunning old fox.

The person on the left was a fat middle-aged man. He was a head taller than the average person. His body was covered with layers of fat. He looked like a mountain of meat.

The woman looked like she was in her thirties. She was quite pretty. However, she was in a long red dress and had a bright red flower on her head. She looked a little out of place.

"Daoist Li, you're here. Please take a seat," Shi Chuankong saw Han Li and got up to welcome him with a smile.

Han Li nodded and returned the greeting. He found a seat and sat down.

"Let me introduce you. These three are Daoist Mo, Daoist Lu, and Daoist Hua. They are the guest elders of this city. They are also my confidants," Shi Chuankong introduced.

"I'm Han Li. Greetings to the three of you." Han Li cupped his hands.

The three of them returned the greeting. They were quite polite.

Han Li took a glance at Shi Chuankong. He wanted to ask about the people sent by the third prince. However, with the three of them present, he hesitated.

"You're all on the same side. Daoist Li, you don't have to be shy. Third brother has always been punctual. He said that the people he sent will arrive in half a month. It should be today. Let's wait here," Shi Chuankong said. He could tell what Han Li was thinking.

When Han Li heard this, he nodded.

"You're all my good teachers and friends. I invited you here to introduce you to each other. I'll need your help in the future. I've just obtained some high-grade sacred wine. Let's drink while we wait." Shi Chuankong laughed and took out a purplish-red wine jar.

Although it was not opened, a strange wine aroma leaked out from it.

"Your highness is too kind. It's our honor to serve you," the black-faced old man said with a smile.

"That's right. Your Highness, you're a man of wisdom. You'll provide us with all kinds of good wine and food. If you want us to do anything, just tell us. I, Lu Tong, will definitely not refuse!" The muscular man patted his chest and said in a low, muffled voice.

"Hehe, the thirteenth prince is being too polite," the woman in the red dress said with a smile.

"Thank you." Shi Chuankong was in a good mood. He took out a few wine cups and filled them up.

"Daoist Li, I know you're quite knowledgeable about wine. However, the materials used in this jar of wine are special. The taste is also very unique. It should be drinkable," Shi Chuankong said to Han Li.

"Daoist Shi, you're too polite." Han Li took a sip of the wine. His eyes lit up.

The taste of this wine was very special. It was very different from the immortal wine he had drunk before.

The taste of the wine was secondary. The wine also contained an extremely pure Devil Qi, which actually had a nourishing effect on his Ninth Hell Magic Eyes.

"It's a good wine. May I know what it's called?" Han Li asked.

"It's called Rainbow Fruit Wine. I knew Daoist Li would be interested in it. This is the recipe." Shi Chuankong took out a jade slip and handed it over.

Han Li thanked him. He took the jade slip and probed it with his divine sense.

There were many materials used in the recipe. He was not familiar with the materials in the Demon Domain. However, his intuition told him that the demonic qi in the wine should originate from a material called Red Fruit.

Han Li asked, "As expected, this wine recipe is quite extraordinary. May I ask where the red mulberry fruit is grown?"

"The Red Fruit is from the extreme north of the Holy Region. Why?

Daoist Li wants to brew this Rainbow Fruit Wine? "Shi Chuankong blinked.

"I do. May I ask if Daoist Shi can use the power of the Vast Origin House to collect the materials for this wine, especially the Red Fruit. As for the price, there's no need to worry too much." Han Li nodded.

"No problem. However, the Red Fruit is an extremely rare material. It might take some time," Shi Chuankong agreed.

"Then I'll be counting on you." Han Li was only thinking about studying it. He was not in a hurry.

"Daoist Li likes wine?

Haha, then we can get closer. I don't have any other hobbies, but I like to eat good wine!

Come, let's have a toast first! "The mountain of flesh man straightforwardly laughed and patted Han Li's shoulder with his large palm.

Han Li faintly smiled and didn't dodge. Instead, he raised his wine cup.

Although they had just met, he had a rough idea of the meaty man's character. He was a forthright person. If the black-faced old man reached out his hand, he would definitely not let him touch his body.

It was only at this moment that Shi Chuankong's taut nerves finally relaxed.

Now that he wanted to let them get to know each other, he kept finding topics to talk about.

The few of them exchanged toasts, and the atmosphere soon became harmonious.

After drinking to their hearts' content, they began to exchange some of their cultivation experiences.

Everyone's cultivation had reached the Taiyi State. Shi Chuankong was slightly weaker, but he had already passed the Evil Decay and had one foot in the Taiyi State.

After a round of exchanges, they felt that they had learned a lot.

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, half a day had passed. The person sent by the Third Prince had not appeared.
