Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator
Chapter 54 Seeing Through
At this moment, Han Li used his disguise technique to change his appearance, and he looked like an old man.
Meanwhile, Feng Yuye, who was standing to the side, looked around with a look of utter shock.
Although she didn't know exactly what happened last night, she clearly remembered that a masked man had tried to take advantage of her, and after that she remembered nothing.
The next day, as soon as I opened my eyes, I found myself in the old man's house.
According to the old man, he found himself in the nearby mountains.
Moreover, Feng Yuye did not see any masked men besides herself at the time, which made her somewhat suspicious.
After the physical examination revealed no abnormalities, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Later, with the old man's escort, they finally returned to Wuling City safely.
"Sister Yuye, I'm so glad you're alright!"
At this moment, a woman dressed in a tight red outfit walked out, hugged Feng Yuye tightly, took her hand, and looked her up and down.
Seeing that her daughter was unharmed, Madam Yan's eyes reddened slightly, and her gaze fell on Han Li beside her.
“Mother, this old man saved me last night, otherwise I might have been eaten by wild animals in the mountains.”
Upon hearing this, Madam Yan hurriedly stepped forward and bowed deeply to Han Li.
"It's nothing, no need for that." Seeing this, Han Li hunched over and stepped forward to help Yan Shi.
"Now that the person has been delivered, this old man will take his leave first."
With that, Han Li smiled kindly and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, sir!"
“Uncle, I must repay your life-saving kindness. Besides, you brought me back from afar, so I should at least show you the proper hospitality. It’s not too late for you to have a meal before you leave.”
At this moment, Feng Yuye suddenly ran up to Han Li, grabbed his hand, and looked at Han Li with a big smile.
"Yes, sir, since you're already here, why don't you come in and rest for a bit? If you find it troublesome, I'll send someone to take you home later."
Seeing this, Feng Jinzhi hurriedly stepped forward to help Han Li up, and said with a smile.
The two women exuded a unique, youthful fragrance, which made Han Li's heart race, but his expression remained completely unchanged.
"In that case, I'll gladly accept your offer. Thank you for your help," Han Li said in a hoarse voice.
"No trouble, no trouble!"
"Old Fan, quickly inform the kitchen staff to prepare some delicious food."
Seeing this, Madam Yan smiled and then made the arrangements.
"Yes, ma'am!"
The old man with the horse-like face dared not be negligent, so he bowed and quietly withdrew.
Supported by the two women, Han Li entered the gate of the Feng residence.
"Uncle, you and my sister go first. I... I'll go back and change my clothes." Feng Yuye looked up awkwardly and said with a blush on her face.
Before Han Li could react, she hurriedly ran away.
She was only wearing a nightgown and a coarse cloth shirt over it the whole way.
The shirt emitted a strange fragrance, a pleasant scent that lifted her spirits.
Although it looks rustic, its effectiveness and comfort are in no way inferior to those fine silks and satins.
However, it was simply inappropriate for a girl like herself to wander around wearing men's clothing. So, amidst the strange looks from the crowd, she ran away in shame.
"Uncle, that's just how my sister is, don't take it to heart." Seeing this, Feng Jinzhi chuckled and said.
"It's okay, girls are naturally concerned about their appearance."
"Back in the day, my husband was just as beautiful as her when he was young, and he loved to dress up. It's just a pity..."
"What a pity...what's a pity?"
The clever and mischievous Feng Jinzhi blinked her eyes, her beautiful gaze fixed on the old man before her.
"Unfortunately, she died later."
The old man sighed and said.
"I'm...I'm sorry, sir. I didn't mean to bring up your sad story." Hearing this, Feng Jinzhi's eyes flashed with guilt, and she hurriedly apologized to Han Li.
"It's alright, that happened a long, long time ago. I'm used to it now, and besides..."
Han Li smiled but didn't speak, though a barely perceptible light emanated from his body. This light was so subtle that it was almost invisible under the sunlight.
"let's go!"
Seeing that Han Li was not angry, Feng Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief and led Han Li to a grand hall.
The main hall was already full of people.
These people, more or less, carried the aura of those in positions of power; there appeared to be about a dozen of them.
Apart from Maple Gold Branch, there were no other juniors here, and many experts were lurking in the shadows, which made Han Li's heart tremble.
Not long after Han Li took his seat, an old woman dressed in brocade robes slowly walked over, supported by several maids.
His cloudy gaze fell on Han Li.
"Now that everyone is here, let's get started."
"Take down this shameless thief who infiltrated the Feng family and kidnapped Yu Ye!"
The old woman's expression changed, and she pointed directly at Han Li, saying...
At that moment, more than a dozen top-notch experts who had been hiding in the shadows filed out and surrounded the old man that Han Li had transformed into, wielding swords and knives.
"this......"
Everyone present was stunned by what they saw.
"Master, are you mistaken? How could this old man be the masked man who kidnapped the young lady?"
Yan was the first to ask a question, raising her doubts.
"Yes, Grandmother, Uncle is a very nice person. Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
Feng Jinzhi was also stunned. After realizing what was happening, she hurriedly spoke up.
"Hmph! You've only known this person for a short time, yet you're already speaking up for him. As the saying goes, you can know a person's face but not their heart. Who knows if this person in front of you is just one of those petty thieves from the martial arts world in disguise?"
The old woman snorted coldly, staring at Han Li with a half-smile, and said.
“Master, you said that this old man abducted Sister Yuye, so why did he go to all the trouble of sending her back? Isn’t that a contradiction?” Madam Li spoke up slowly from the side.
"There's a saying, 'to lure the enemy into a trap,' and another, 'to deceive the enemy.' His purpose in doing this is to openly and legitimately infiltrate my Feng family. Am I right?"
The old woman smiled, and her previously cloudy eyes instantly turned sharp.
"Don't feel like I've wronged you."
"Firstly, although your disguise technique is exquisite, I happen to be proficient in it as well. Ordinary people may not be able to see through it, but in my opinion, it is full of loopholes."
"Secondly, what do you think this place is? My Feng family's ancestor once set up a bloodline array here, which is inaccessible to anyone who is not a direct descendant of the Feng family. Yet you were able to enter directly. What does that mean?"
"You're hiding something! You're the mysterious person who kidnapped Yu Ye last night!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yuye appeared at the door without anyone noticing, scattering the flowers in her hand all over the ground, looking at Han Li with disbelief on her face.
