Inside the carriage, the three of them were chatting casually, talking about some interesting stories on the mainland, and they were quite looking forward to this experience.
However, within just over ten minutes, Dugu Yan, whose hair had begun to turn gradually scarlet, walked in from the cab.
"Xiao Li, I heard from Grandpa that our first stop is Tiandou City? You have received the mission, so you can show up openly. Grandpa is also going to make the news public. This time, I can finally go see Lingling, right?"
Dugu Yan stopped in front of him with some excitement. She was really looking forward to it. The previous few times she returned to Tiandou City, for various reasons, although she really wanted to see her bestie, she still held back.
For more than four years, she and Ye Lingling have only communicated through letters, and she can hardly remember what she looks like.
Han Li looked at her unhappily as she seemed to be in a state of impatience. Sure enough, he heard the laughter coming from Shui Bing'er and Xiu'er on the side.
He had just finished saying "fate will guide us", but within just ten minutes, she pointed it out.
"Of course you can. In fact, you could have done it before. There's no need for you to hide it. The Tiandou Empire wouldn't dare to show its displeasure to Grandpa anyway."
Han Li nodded, reached out and pulled her into his arms, playing with her hair with his hands.
"It's all Grandpa's fault, saying that Prince Xuexing saved him, but he has delayed it until now. But now he has finally repaid the favor."
Dugu Yan moved her body to a more comfortable position, not caring at all that he was playing with her hair in circles in his hands.
Shui Bing'er and Xiu'er, who were standing by, also watched this scene as usual, without showing any strange expressions. It was because they had already gotten used to it.
Over the past four years, they have been living together day and night, and coupled with the fact that their martial souls have been fused together, their relationship has long since deteriorated.
In private, the two of them did have more intimate actions, but due to their personalities, only Dugu Yan did not shy away from it.
Hearing Dugu Yan's words, Han Li couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.
How can I describe Dugu Bo? Although his personality is a little more eccentric than ordinary people, he is really stubborn when it comes to repaying favors.
We had originally agreed to go to Wuhun City in half a year, but it has been delayed until now.
The main reason was that Xue Xing was also a cunning person. Knowing Dugu Bo's personality, she just tried to lure him and treated him with courtesy. It was unnecessary for small matters, and there were not many big matters. Dugu Bo just couldn't find a way to repay her.
In the end, Han Li couldn't bear it anymore, and half a year ago, with the intention of helping others, he directly summoned his good son.
The unicorn pulling the cart was caught off guard and went crazy, almost stabbing Xue Xing's kidney through.
Fortunately, Dugu Bo was not far away at the time. He tried his best to rescue Xue Xing and used top-grade medicinal herbs, and only then was Xue Xing's kidney saved.
Otherwise, even if Xue Xing could wait until the Nine-Hearted Begonia Soul Master arrived, her kidneys would probably be completely scrapped.
Of course, after this incident, Dugu Bo and Xue Xing were even. No matter how he tried to keep him, he still refused to continue to serve as a guest official and chose to become a free spirit master.
This is why Dugu Yan said just now that he was going to reveal his identity and join the Spirit Hall.
"Well, anyway, once we arrive at Tiandou City, Grandpa's identity will be revealed, and you can find her however you want."
"Well, you can bring Bing'er and Xiu'er along. Anyway, I don't think you are interested in meeting Crown Prince Tiandou."
When he said the latter part, he turned his head to ask for the opinions of the two women.
"The famous contemporary Nine-Heart Begonia Spirit Master? I've heard Sister Yan talk about him many times, and I want to meet him, too."
Shui Bing'er nodded. Compared to performing official duties with Han Li, she was indeed more interested in Ye Lingling.
"I'm fine with either. It depends on what you think, Xiao Li."
"You're not going?"
Dugu Yan in his arms twisted her body and looked up at Han Li.
"Lingling is also a great beauty, but she usually wears a veil, and she is relatively low-key, so she is not well-known. Don't regret it if you don't go."
Dugu Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes full of teasing.
"Since you said so, I'll leave it to you. Don't forget, I have a mission. Once my identity is exposed, my every move will probably be watched by others, and I won't have the freedom you have."
Han Li pinched her face with an obviously joking tone.
That’s right, Han Li did come out with a mission, one obvious and one hidden.
On the surface, as the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, he should indeed show up, and his first appearance on stage represents the Spirit Hall's friendship towards the Heaven Dou Empire.
After all, the Spirit Hall's attitude has always been to maintain stability, and its attitude towards the two empires in recent decades has been to fight against the heavens and shake the stars.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
And the excuse was very reasonable. Han Li was originally from the Tiandou Empire and was a viscount.
In addition, although several years have passed, the stupid move of the Tiandou Empire at that time is still fresh in people's memory. It is normal for His Royal Highness the Holy Son to come out and ask about it, right? So, this became his first mission after his appearance.
Of course, secretly, he also came to meet Qian Renxue with Qian Daoliu's instructions.
This doesn't have any other meaning. The most important thing is that Qian Daoliu asked him to inspire Qian Renxue.
It would be best if she could give up her undercover mission directly. It is not too late to return to full training now.
Qian Daoliu watched Han Li and the people beside him quickly rush into the Soul King realm. Even though he believed that Qian Renxue would become a god, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
But Qian Renxue was good at everything except listening to advice. She was extremely stubborn. Even when Qian Daoliu wrote to her and mentioned the cultivation speed of Han Li and others, she still insisted on continuing undercover.
As for Han Li, this time his job was to come and fight with her.
Well, it's that simple and crude.
His fighting ability has been tested by Qian Daoliu, so it is easy for him to defeat a small Qian Renxue.
Qian Daoliu also told Han Li about Qian Renxue's life experience, the daughter of the former Pope, including the so-called undercover plan.
Of course, he still had his dignity to hide the most crucial information. He did not mention who her mother was, nor did he say what Qian Xunji had done.
During the conversation, Han Li pretended to be extremely shocked and said that he had met Xue Qinghe before and gave a false name.
Qian Daoliu couldn't help but smile after hearing this. He knew this of course, and he also told Han Li that the magic herb that Guang Ling asked for that year was given to Qian Renxue.
Therefore, there is no need to hold back when the time comes, just do whatever works best.
Han Li couldn't help but be amazed. Nowadays, grandfathers on the mainland seem to be quite loving towards their granddaughters, but they can also be really cruel.
First, Dugu Bo thought that his granddaughter was not worthy of having an external soul bone attached to her, and then Qian Daoliu asked someone to beat her granddaughter severely. How wonderful.
