Li Mochou was emotional, her eyes sparkling.
Li Huan noticed that Li Mochou's temperament had changed.
Originally, her beauty was tinged with arrogance and ruthlessness.
Now, it has a more gentle and clear feel.
"Master!" Li Mochou smiled charmingly, "You've finally arrived! Your disciple has missed you terribly!"
Li Huan deliberately said, "You don't miss me, you miss the 'alleviation pills' from the 'Life and Death Talisman'!"
Li Mochou raised her eyebrows: "When my disciple sees her master, it's like seeing a 'remedy for longing,' thus relieving the pain of lovesickness."
This statement was made in a rather "artistic" way.
Behind Li Mochou stood a young Taoist nun, with beautiful features and extremely fair skin.
Clearly, she is Li Mochou's apprentice—Ling Hongbo.
"Greetings, Ancestor!" Hong Lingbo bowed respectfully.
Li Huan nodded.
He knew that Ling Hongbo was not a bad person and had a kind heart.
Looking behind Huang Yaoshi, there were also two beautiful young women standing there.
The woman on the left, dressed in a light blue dress, is slender, graceful, and elegant, holding a jade flute with a jade-green hue.
She is Cheng Ying, Huang Yaoshi's last disciple.
The woman on the right, dressed in white, has a slightly dark complexion, but her features are delicate and pretty.
She is Lu Wushuang, Cheng Ying's cousin. She was kidnapped by Li Mochou when she was young and once became Li Mochou's apprentice.
"Alliance Leader Li!"
Gongsun Zhi led a group of disciples in green robes over and respectfully clasped his hands in greeting.
"Alliance Leader Li still looks as radiant as ever, and even a few years younger. It's clear that he regularly eats nourishing and beautifying foods!"
Gongsun Zhi grinned obsequiously, showering Li Huan with flattery.
At this moment, Gongsun Lü'e pushed the wheelchair and brought Qiu Qianchi to Li Huan.
"Alliance Leader Li!" Qiu Qianchi clasped his hands in a fist salute, grinning like a chrysanthemum. "It's been a year since we last met, and you look radiant and your divine might remains undiminished!"
Despite the sweltering heat, Qiu Qianchi was dressed in a thick brocade robe and wore a white mink hat.
Li Huan teased, "Qiu Qianchi, your style of dressing is still the same as last year—so stylish and so unique!"
Qiu Qianchi said, "Thanks to that old scoundrel Gongsun, I spent fifteen years in the cave of the Crocodile Pool, enduring the chilling cold and suffering from chronic illness. Even under the scorching sun, I still feel cold!"
After saying that, Qiu Qianchi rolled her eyes at Gongsun Zhi with disdain.
She no longer called Gongsun Zhi a "wicked thief" but an "old thief," and the relationship between the two seemed to have eased slightly.
Gongsun Zhi hurriedly retorted, "Don't pin the blame on me! Alliance Leader Li, please take a look..."
The guy pulled down his collar, revealing a mink vest underneath.
"Ever since I was hit by the 'Life and Death Talisman,' I often shiver and have to wear extra clothes to keep warm!"
After listening to Gongsun Zhi's words, Li Huan understood.
The "Life and Death Talisman" is made with extremely cold true energy. After being planted in acupoints, the "Life and Death Talisman" merges into the meridians, causing people to suffer from the invasion of cold and dampness.
"Hmph!" Li Mochou sneered, "Master, don't listen to their nonsense. I've also been hit by the 'Life and Death Talisman,' so why don't I often feel cold?"
Li Mochou straightened her chest and showed off her Taoist robe.
Her clothes were indeed not thick, because her slender curves were extremely eye-catching.
Li Huan was puzzled. It was strange that Li Mochou was not tormented by the cold and yin energy.
Suddenly, Li Huan thought of something and hurriedly gave instructions to Li Mochou.
"Roll up your sleeve and let your master see your left arm!"
Without hesitation, Li Mochou immediately pulled up her sleeve, revealing her fair and jade-like arms.
There was a bright red mark on the back of her elbow!
Li Huan laughed and said, "Look, you are still a virgin, and the yin and yang in your body are not out of balance. You can completely resist the cold energy of the 'Life and Death Talisman'!"
Li Mochou suddenly realized what was happening, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly put down her sleeves.
Li Huan said, "Gongsun Zhi and Qiu Qianchi are no longer virgins. After they were hit by the 'Life and Death Talisman,' they must have felt a chill in their bodies!"
"So that's how it is! Sigh..." Qiu Qianchi sighed.
Li Mochou hurriedly bowed: "Master! The one-year term has expired. Please give your disciple another 'life-and-death talisman' 'alleviation pill'!"
Gongsun Zhi and Qiu Qianchi also quickly begged, their faces full of expectation.
Li Huan smiled calmly and asked loudly, "Guo'er! How did Li Mochou, Gongsun Zhi, and Qiu Qianchi fare in their battles last year?"
Yang Guo clasped his hands and reported: "According to detailed records, Li Mochou killed a total of 15,300 Mongol soldiers last year!"
Li Mochou suddenly raised her head, a smug smile on her face.
Yang Guo then reported: "Gongsun Zhi killed a total of 18,600 Mongol soldiers last year!"
"Hehehe..." Gongsun Zhi couldn't help but laugh out loud, looking quite smug.
Qiu Qianchi curled her lip and glanced at Gongsun Zhi with disgust.
Li Huan said, "Gongsun Zhi, you killed several thousand more Mongol soldiers than Li Mochou. You must have used the 'Fishing Net Formation,' which was the achievement of the sixteen Green-Robed Disciples, right?"
Gongsun Zhi clasped his hands and said, "That's right! The number of enemy soldiers I commanded to deploy and kill is accurate, without the slightest exaggeration!"
Li Mochou hurriedly asked, "Master, if Gongsun Zhi's disciples go into battle to kill enemies, are those counted towards his kill count?"
Li Huan said, "As long as we kill 30,000 Mongol soldiers, we can use any means necessary, any method!"
Li Mochou frowned immediately: "If I had known this would happen, I would have had my disciple Lingbo lend me a hand..."
Hong Lingbo quickly comforted him, "Master, don't worry. I will return to Xiangyang with you and fight the enemy with all my might!"
Yang Guo continued to report: "Qiu Qianchi killed a total of 9,700 Mongol soldiers last year!"
Hahaha... The audience burst into laughter.
The number of enemies killed by Qiu Qianchi was far less than that killed by Li Mochou and Gongsun Zhi.
Li Huan looked at Qiu Qianchi: "Your battle record is not good. At this rate, how will you kill 30,000 Mongol soldiers within two years?"
Qiu Qianchi looked embarrassed.
"Leader Li... my tendons in my hands and feet are severed, so I can't run or ride a horse. I can only sit on the city wall and use my internal energy to spit out jujube pits to shoot down enemy soldiers attacking the city, which affects my ability to kill enemies..."
"Amitabha!"
A Buddhist chant interrupted Qiu Qianchi's words.
Qiu Qianren strode over, bowed to Li Huan, and then spoke.
"In order to enable my third sister to eliminate more Mongol soldiers, this humble monk has already passed on my unique lightness skill to my niece, E'er!"
Gongsun Lü'e laughed and said, "From now on, I can carry my mother on my back and charge into battle to help her shoot down the Mongol soldiers!"
Li Huan nodded approvingly and said to Qiu Qianren.
"Iron Palm Water-Walking Skill, unparalleled in the world! Master Piao personally taught the Green Maiden the skill, Qiu Qianchi's kill count this year will surely increase exponentially!"
"Master Piao?" Qiu Qianren was taken aback, then realized Li Huan's teasing and shook his head helplessly.
Li Huan quickly unzipped his waist bag, took out a "life-and-death talisman" "alleviation pill," and held it in his palm.
Li Mochou, Gongsun Zhi, and Qiu Qianchi's eyes lit up as they stared at the "relief pill" like hungry cats seeing a small fish.
Li Huan asked, "Guo'er, did Li Mochou make things difficult for Miss Long last year, trying to get the secret manual of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra from her?"
