Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator

"Senior Brother Han, come here for a moment. I have something to talk to you about in private."

Gan Rushuang pursed her red lips, her beautiful eyes scanning Han Li up and down, and said.

Upon hearing this, not only was Han Li somewhat taken aback, but the other fellow disciples of the Star River Sword Sect were also dumbfounded.

They all stared at Han Li and Junior Sister Gan, who was always cold and aloof towards male cultivators, with incredulous eyes.

Seeing Han Li's stunned expression, Chen Yao's eyes lit up as if she had thought of something, and she quickly pushed Han Li towards her.

"Junior Brother Han, what are you waiting for? How can you refuse an invitation from a junior sister of the Star River Sword Sect?"

Yan Xiao walked over with a smile, patted Han Li on the shoulder, and spoke in a slightly joking tone.

Han Li rubbed his nose, his expression remaining unchanged. Amidst the envious gazes of the surrounding male cultivators, he followed them out.

Although it was true that he liked Gan Rushuang, he didn't want so many people to know. If he hesitated any longer, wouldn't he seem too guilty?

Reaching the elegant pavilion on the second floor, Gan Rushuang was leaning against the railing, gazing absently at the passing scenery outside. Upon hearing Han Li's approaching footsteps, she turned around, a gentle smile appearing on her usually icy face.

"Miss Ru Shuang... It's been a while, how have you been? Oh? Fellow Daoist has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, congratulations!"

Seeing the other party's appearance, Han Li was somewhat stunned.

Only then did he notice the change in Gan Rushuang's aura, her honest face full of smiles.

"This is all thanks to Senior Brother Han's Foundation Establishment Pill. But speaking of which, was it something urgent that Senior Brother Han ran so fast last time?"

Han Li scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said:

"At that time, I saw Master arrive. Given Master's fiery temper, so..."

Gan Rushuang covered her mouth and chuckled softly.

"I see. Senior Brother Han, there's no need to take it to heart. Although Senior Cang Kun is a bit strict, he's not an unreasonable person."

Han Li nodded, feeling relieved.

"By the way, Senior Brother Han, have you heard about what happened between Senior Cang Kun and Master Xuan Lian?"

"I never expected that my master, such a cold and aloof person, would like someone like Senior Cang Kun. Fate is truly a wonderful thing."

"It's just a pity for Senior Zhen Yuanzi, but in this way, the relationship between our Star River Sword Sect and the Li Huo Sect will naturally become even closer..."

As Gan Rushuang spoke, she glanced at Han Li beside her, her face flushed.

"Oh, I see... That's good."

Han Li did not try to decipher the meaning behind Gan Rushuang's words. His gaze fell on that gentle and beautiful face, and his eyes gradually softened.

Afterwards, Gan Rushuang told Han Li about the days since they parted ways, as well as many rumors about the Star River Sword Sect.

Han Li vividly recounted his cultivation journey to Gan Rushuang.

When she heard about the carefree life she shared with Hao Le, drinking and eating meat, she couldn't help but chuckle to herself. When the thrilling parts were mentioned, she gasped softly, looking extremely worried.

"So, Senior Brother Han will also be participating in the competition soon?"

Han Li nodded with a bitter expression.

"If I could, I really wouldn't want to fight with someone in public."

Han Li sighed and slowly began to speak.

Looking at the young man with a bitter expression in his eyes, Gan Rushuang felt a strange emotion rising in her heart.

She knew very well what kind of abilities this Senior Brother Han possessed, but unfortunately, some things were destined to be impossible to keep quiet.

Thinking back to when Han Li risked his life for her at the Imperial Sword Sect and fought valiantly against all odds, Gan Rushuang couldn't help but blush.

For some reason, this unassuming senior brother Han always gave her an unparalleled sense of peace.

"Actually, you don't need to worry too much."

Gan Rushuang gently comforted him, "With Senior Brother Han's strength, he should be able to win this competition easily."

Han Li shook his head with a wry smile. He knew his own level all too well. All the participants in this competition were elite disciples, and he wasn't entirely confident.

Gan Rushuang seemed to sense Han Li's worry. She hesitated for a moment, then took out a jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to Han Li.

"This jade pendant is a treasure of my Star River Sword Sect, named the 'Star Jade Pendant.' It can lend you a helping hand at crucial moments," Gan Rushuang explained.

Han Li quickly declined, "How can I accept such a valuable gift?"

Gan Rushuang firmly placed the jade pendant in Han Li's hand, saying, "Just take it; it's a token of my appreciation."

Han Li felt a slight coolness emanating from the jade pendant in his hand, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He carefully put the jade pendant away and solemnly thanked Gan Rushuang.

"Thank you very much, Miss Ru Shuang. I will definitely keep it safe," Han Li promised.

Gan Rushuang smiled and nodded. The two chatted for a while longer until the sun went down before parting ways.

"Senior Brother Han, please accept this; consider it a token of my appreciation..."

As soon as Han Li entered the rest pavilion, he heard Yang Xiao and Fang Yuan imitating his voice from afar.

"Master, you're back!"

Upon seeing Han Li return, Lan Xuan'er, who had been dozing off, quickly stood up and skipped over to Han Li.

"Junior Brother Han, you're really being unfair. Tell me honestly, when did you two start this?"

"what are you guys saying?"

Han Li looked at his two senior brothers in front of him with a blank expression.

“Keep pretending. We’ve all inquired, and that Junior Sister Gan Rushuang has never had any intimate interactions with any male cultivator, except for Junior Brother Han.”

"Oh my, I never expected that Junior Brother Han, who usually seems so honest and unassuming, would have such great charm that even such a fairy would be so fond of him."

Fang Yuan sighed and stared at Han Li with a resentful expression.

"Fine, you guys are spying on me."

By this time, Han Li could no longer misunderstand the situation and immediately pounced on the two of them.

For a moment, the room was filled with the sounds of the three of them laughing and joking.

Seeing this, Chen Yao, Lan Xuan'er, and the others couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle.

Just then, a burly man with a fiery red beard walked in.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Chen Yao and the others quickly suppressed their smiles, their eyes darting around. They wanted to warn the others, but were stopped by Venerable Cang Kun.

At this moment, Fang Yuan and his group were completely engrossed in their playful antics and did not notice anything unusual about Chen Yao and the others.

When Yang Xiao inadvertently raised his head and met Cang Kun Shangren's serious face, he instantly seemed to lose his soul and his body stiffened.

"Junior Brother Yang, what are you doing? Didn't we agree to teach Junior Brother Han a lesson together? Why did you suddenly stop...?"

Han Li also noticed the abnormality and bowed to Venerable Cang Kun.

"You lot, with a major battle imminent, you're still in the mood to fool around here."

"What, are you confident about the upcoming competition?"

Master Cangkun snorted coldly, his crimson beard trembling slightly, exuding an imposing aura without anger.

"Master, Master, what brings you here?"

Fang Yuan turned around shakily, his facial muscles twitching a few times before he revealed a broad smile.
