Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 486 Aftermath

"Alright, alright, I can't stand this anymore!" ** was speechless. "If you keep dragging this out, it'll be dawn soon, and you're still not in a hurry. I'm really fed up with you."

"I knew you had a way." Han Yi said after seeing his reaction, "If you didn't have a way to handle something this big, you would have told me long ago."

He had spent a long time with **, and they had developed a deep friendship and understood each other thoroughly. He knew that ** would never act this way if she truly had no other choice.

Sure enough, he chuckled twice and pulled a small black bottle from his pocket.

"You're so boring...you have no fun at all. Whichever family marries you will be doomed..." He said in a rather displeased tone. He had originally wanted to stall for time and see how Han Yi begged him.

Looking at it now...

As a result, his idea was exposed, and naturally, the exciting scene he imagined could not be realized.

"This is a new medicine I developed..." **The stopper was opened, and a few drops of black, viscous liquid slowly flowed from the bottle opening, gently dripping onto the corpse of a bodyguard.

Soon, the mucus corroded the clothes it came into contact with, creating a hole that instantly pierced through the skin and flesh to the bone marrow, and continued to penetrate and expand without any sign of slowing down.

The stench was pungent and overwhelming, like the smell of strong acid corroding proteins, and the entire corpse quickly turned into pools of black pus.

"This..." Han Yi's mouth opened slightly, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, clearly indicating that he was also quite surprised.

"How is it?" She looked at Han Yi with a hint of pride. "Impressive!" Han Yi exclaimed. "Great stuff! How did you get it?"

"I extracted the fluid from the horseshoe crab, and combined it with giant spirit blood, earth abyss grass, and ink powder..." While proudly reciting the medicinal ingredients that Han Yi had no idea about, he continuously dripped the liquid onto the corpses.

"Wait a minute!!" Han Yi, seeing his actions, suddenly thought of something, quickly flew up, and searched the bodies of Luo Meiwei, Ying Jiu, and the others one by one.

The potion they took out was indeed an essential item for those traveling the martial arts world and killing people, but its effects were too overpowering, leaving nothing behind.

Before long, under **'s actions, the corpses on the open ground turned into puddles of black water, and the pungent, acrid smell was quickly dispersed by the wind.

Only the collapsed carriage and the remaining craters proved that a fierce battle had just taken place here. "Here, use it sparingly, it'll last you a while." After dealing with everything, ** tossed the black bottle to Han Yi.

Han Yi hadn't expected him to be so bold. This was a potent, corrosive potion that could corrode flesh and bones. You just threw it over like that?

Not afraid of any unexpected incidents, I suddenly became a bit flustered.

Looking at Han Yi's expression, she slightly curled up her lips and added, "On the condition that you don't kill too many people."

"I have always repaid evil with kindness and never killed innocent people indiscriminately," Han Yi said with a righteous expression.

I was speechless: "Do you think I'd believe you? You lie without even blinking!"

"Alright, now there are no witnesses, but we still have these physical evidence. What should we do?" Han Yi breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the contraband saltpeter in the carriage.

With no witnesses left, as long as the physical evidence is dealt with, there will truly be no way to prove anything. "That makes things even simpler. I'll find a few trusted men later and have these things temporarily stored at my Hu family's place. I don't believe anyone would dare to cause trouble at my Hu family's place!" he said casually.

But then his tone turned serious: "Old Han, but you should also understand that the lack of witnesses and physical evidence does not mean the matter is over. On the contrary, the person behind such a big operation must have power far beyond our imagination. The real trouble will come from the subsequent investigation!"

Upon hearing this, Han Yi remained silent and began to ponder.

He naturally understood this principle. According to Luo Meiwei, the key figure in this matter was the work of the higher-ups of Jingtian Manor. It was estimated that it might be the organization of the head of an inner courtyard, and it might even involve the deputy manor lord or the manor lord.

This is indeed something he cannot contend with.

The disappearance of witnesses and physical evidence certainly cannot prove that he was the perpetrator, nor can it prove that he was involved in the matter. However, Luo Meiwei was ultimately his subordinate, and with Luo Meiwei's disappearance, he would inevitably be the first person suspected.

He continued, "Besides, the quantity of this batch of rock saltpeter is simply too large. I can only clean up the mess for you. The final decision on how to handle this shipment is still up to you."

Therefore, the key to this matter is that you need to withstand the pressure and ultimately resolve this issue properly. Only then can the matter be truly resolved safely.

Han Yi slowly closed his eyes, then opened them again after a short while. He slowly exhaled a breath of white air and looked at **: "I understand. Give me some time. Then, please keep an eye on things for the next few days..."

"No problem, come up with an idea as soon as possible and get back to me." **He readily agreed.

"Alright!" Han Yi smiled and, with a flick of his wrist, gently handed over a package. "We'll split it in half when we meet. Here you go." This was what he had just found during the search. The two men from the Green Robe Alliance didn't have much money, only a few books, but Luo Meiwei had a ledger encrypted with ciphertext and a huge amount of gold notes.

Han Yi didn't count them in detail, but just casually picked them up and felt their thickness, and knew that there were at least 100,000 gold notes.

This is almost all the sales revenue of the entire Qiyun Mountain area in a year.

It's likely that Luo Meiwei felt this was her last job, and after it was done, she made a quick getaway, taking all her wealth with her, which now all went to Han Yi.

"I don't need it, you can keep it yourself. You'll need it to deal with what's coming up." Unexpectedly, ** refused outright and forcefully pushed half of the gold notes back.

"Alright, thank you this time." Han Yi didn't continue to be coy and took the gold note back.

At his current level, simple monetary transactions are no longer very effective.

Or rather, many of the things he needs now cannot be bought or sold with money alone, as he lacks the connections to obtain them.

However, his special channels can help him make up for this deficiency.

This is another important reason why he values ​​his relationship with **.
