Su Yun reflected that he had underestimated his opponent this time.

The ferocious beast was stronger than the human cultivator, and he was injured because he was careless and did not activate the Nine Dragons Heavenly Gang.

Seeing the giant python's head emerge from the water, Su Yun didn't rush to collect the beast's essence.

He stood there, his expression gradually turning cold.

"You've been hiding for so long, and I've even killed the giant python. Are you still not going to show yourself?"

The cold words spread and echoed around.

The surroundings were very quiet, with only the sounds of birds, beasts, and insects.

But the next moment, a dry laugh rang out.

A figure emerged from the tall grass not far away.

The man was over 1.7 meters tall, dressed in all black, around thirty years old, and had a smile on his face as he walked out.

"This fellow Daoist from the Qingyun Sect is truly a man of great hidden talent, young but accomplished, and his potential is immeasurable."

The man cupped his hands in greeting to Su Yun, his face beaming with a smile that showed no hostility, but rather respect.

Su Yun, however, looked at the man with cold eyes.

He had noticed someone hiding in the bushes when he approached the area, but before he could prepare to target them, he realized something was wrong with the pool and began fighting the giant python.

This person must be the one closest to him who came here and lay low.

Seeing that Su Yun's expression remained cold, the man continued with a smile, "Fellow Daoist, please don't misunderstand. I am Mo Hanwan, and I have no hostile intentions. I only wish to make friends with you."

However, Su Yun calmly retorted, "Is that so?"

"Weren't you lurking in the shadows, hoping I would fight the giant python to the death so you could profit from it?"

The question immediately made Mo Hanwan's expression stiffen, and the smile on his face became somewhat awkward.

Su Yun was right; he had been holding this thought in his mind all along.

However, when he saw Su Yun kill the giant python beast with just a few punches and kicks, he no longer had such thoughts.

Are you kidding me? A seventh-level Body Refinement cultivator could almost effortlessly crush and kill an eighth-tier ferocious beast. How could he possibly compare to that terrifying strength?!

Even though he was a cultivator at the eighth level of body refinement, he dared not have any improper thoughts!

This young man before me is unfathomable!

"Fellow Daoist, I dare not have such a thought again."

"If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."

"Farewell!"

Mo Han dared not linger any longer, because Su Yun's gaze filled him with fear, and he wanted to leave as soon as possible.

However, before he could even turn around, he heard cold words coming from behind him.

"Do I allow you to leave?"

One sentence froze him in place once again.

Having just witnessed Su Yun's speed and agility, he knew he wouldn't be able to escape if Su Yun tried to catch up.

So he turned around and asked, "I wonder if there's anything else, friend?"

Su Yun stared at him and said, "Aren't you going to tell the truth?"

"This is your last chance."

Feeling the killing intent slowly emanating from Su Yun, Mo Hanwan felt a chill in his heart.

He immediately said, "Fellow Daoist, I discovered a cave emitting a faint light in the shallows of the pool. However, before I could explore it, I sensed a powerful aura within the pool, so I immediately hid to the side."

"This is the truth; I have told everything, and there is no falsehood!"

Upon hearing this, Su Yun raised an eyebrow slightly.

No wonder the giant python rushed out like a madman as soon as I approached the pool; it turned out that this person had disturbed it.

He knew this person must have discovered something; otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for him to hide in the first place.

The reason this guy didn't reveal everything was probably because he wanted to wait until I left before secretly returning to the cave to search for treasure.

He sighed inwardly, realizing that if he hadn't been so perceptive and noticed something was amiss, he probably would have let this person hide it from him.

Mo Hanwan cupped his hands again and said, "I have told you everything, fellow Daoist. May I leave now?"

If others were to witness this scene, they would surely be speechless.

For a cultivator at the eighth level of Body Refinement to be so humble, needing permission from a cultivator at the seventh level of Body Refinement to leave, is truly a reversal of the natural order.
