Rebirth of a Reincarnated Immortal Cultivator

Han Li did this to intimidate the three of them, make them understand their current predicament, and then pretend to reluctantly offer his help.

The purpose was to make these people completely devoted to him.

A person's energy is limited; he cannot do everything himself.

If we can train the three of them, it will be much easier to find medicinal herbs or gather information.

Most importantly, these three are simple-minded and easy to control. While I'm away, I can ask them to take care of the Feng family. Why not?

It is well known that offering help in times of need is always more appreciated than adding to someone's success.

Sure enough, upon hearing Han Li's words, the three immediately expressed their willingness to serve him wholeheartedly, even unto death!

Han Li nodded in satisfaction, accepted the two thousand spirit stones, and told them to stay in Wuling City for a few days. During these days, they should eat and drink as usual, or go to watch the Ascension Conference. They should try not to see him without his orders.

After listening, the three agreed repeatedly, outlined their action plan, and then took their leave.

After the others left, Han Li took out the small green bottle containing the True Demon Qi and examined it closely.

To be on the safe side, he decided to go ahead and head to the outskirts of Wuling City to set up several powerful formations in advance, because his internal magical power and spiritual energy were now far superior to those of the Qi Refining stage after breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Some powerful magic arrays can also be set up and cast.

Upon returning to the Feng family, Han Li first inscribed some high-level talismans for combat. After all, what was about to happen might involve Foundation Establishment stage demonic cultivators, and even he had to be cautious.

After doing all this, Han Li was slightly relieved and went to the Ascension Platform to observe the Ascension Ceremony.

Soon, a month had passed.

This year's Ascension Ceremony has come to a successful conclusion.

As expected, Gan Rushuang successfully secured a place in the top three. To Han Li's surprise, the champion of this competition was actually Lin Muxue.

Although Lin Muxin failed to make the list, she is still young enough to cultivate. If given enough time, it should be no problem for her to enter the top three.

Just like in her previous lives, Gan Rushuang eventually became a disciple of the Star River Sword Sect.

Fellow Daoist Wen, who presided over the Ascension Ceremony, lived up to expectations and handed the wooden box given to him by Han Li to Gan Rushuang after the ceremony.

Looking at the Foundation Establishment Pill shimmering with spiritual light inside the medicine bottle, Gan Rushuang asked in surprise, only to be told that he was just doing it for someone else.

She really couldn't understand who would give her such a generous gift. Could it be Master Xuanlian?

"Congratulations to Fairy Ru Shuang for winning first place! It's truly a cause for celebration!"

Just as Gan Rushuang was pondering, an ordinary-looking cultivator in a blue robe walked over slowly and congratulated her.

This person was none other than Han Li.

"So it's Fellow Daoist Han! My apologies for not recognizing you!"

"Eh? Fellow Daoist, your cultivation has already reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Why don't you participate in the Ascension Ceremony?"

"With Fellow Daoist Han's strength, entering the top three should be no problem at all."

When Gan Rushuang saw Han Li, she was taken aback. A faint smile appeared on her cold and beautiful face as she looked Han Li up and down.

Thinking back to what happened at the Imperial Sword Sect last time, a tempting blush crept onto her pretty face.

Just as Han Li was about to speak, a streak of azure light flew out from the high stands and landed steadily in front of the two of them. The appearance of a woman was slowly revealed. This person was none other than Fairy Xuanlian.

Upon seeing this, Gan Rushuang was about to clasp her hands in a gesture of respect.

Immediately afterwards, a cultivator dressed in a fiery red Daoist robe appeared beside Fairy Xuanlian. This person was none other than Venerable Cangkun, who had just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage.

"So many years have passed, junior sister, don't you really understand your junior brother's feelings?"

At this moment, Venerable Cangkun was no longer his usual carefree self; a hint of shyness appeared on his face, and his attention was entirely focused on the female cultivator in front of him, completely unaware of Han Li's presence.

"The disciples are all here, why are we saying these things now?"

Xuanlian Fairy's beautiful eyes flickered as she spoke coldly, her gaze falling on Gan Rushuang, who was bowing before her, with a satisfied look in her eyes.

"Disciple Gan Rushuang greets Master and Senior Cang Kun!"

Seeing this, Gan Rushuang cupped her hands in greeting to Fairy Xuanlian in front of her and said.

Seeing that Fairy Xuanlian didn't want to talk to him, Venerable Cangkun was extremely frustrated, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't.

Seeing that something was wrong, Han Li quietly took a few steps back, trying to blend into the crowd and slip away unnoticed.

"Han Li! Where are you going? You've come all this way and you don't even recognize your own master?"

Just then, the sullen-faced Venerable Cang Kun snorted coldly and spoke directly to Han Li.

Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Han Li had no choice but to turn around, revealing an expression of sudden realization.

"Disciple Han Li greets Master and Mistress."

Han Li gave an extremely awkward smile. He never expected to run into his master here, which meant that his identity could no longer be hidden.

"master?"

"Master's wife?"

Upon hearing Han Li's answer, both Gan Rushuang and Fairy Xuanlian were stunned.

"Who taught you to say that? You've only been out for a few days, and you're becoming more and more disobedient to your teacher."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Cangkun immediately reprimanded Han Li with a stern expression. He then turned to Fairy Xuanlian, his eyes crinkling with a smile, and said:

“Xuan Lian, my newly initiated disciple doesn’t know the rules. Alas! It’s my fault for not teaching him properly.”

"Han Li, when we get back, you'll be punished by copying the rules of the Li Huo Sect one hundred times!"

"what......"

Upon hearing this, Han Li looked astonished and reluctant.

"What, are you going to disobey your master?" Venerable Cangkun narrowed his eyes as he stared at Han Li.

"Disciple dare not!"

Han Li quickly bowed and paid his respects to the group.

"This must be your new disciple, Han Li? Not bad, not bad, already a Foundation Establishment cultivator at such a young age."

Fairy Xuanlian looked Han Li up and down, and after sensing the aura around Han Li, a hint of astonishment flashed in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Gan Rushuang, who was standing to the side, was already dumbfounded.

"Compared to Master and Mistress, my cultivation level is truly insignificant."

Han Li cupped his hands in greeting and said something that made Cang Kun Shangren extremely uneasy. He was about to reprimand him when he was interrupted by Xuan Lian Fairy.

"Master's wife? Why do you call me master's wife, little one? Did this shameless old man instigate you to do that?"

"Heaven and earth are my heart, the sun and moon are my witnesses. I have never taught any of my disciples to say such things. Han Li, tell me, how have I taught you all this time?"

Master Cangkun glared fiercely at Han Li, his eyes full of warning.

“Master never said such a thing, but he has been in love with you, Mistress, for a long time. These things were told to me by Senior Brother Fang, and many disciples of the Li Huo Sect also know about them.”

Han Li cupped his hands in response.

"Many disciples know..." Fairy Xuanlian murmured to herself, lost in thought.

"You unfilial disciple, how dare you spread rumors everywhere! If you ruin the fairy's reputation, what will your master do!"

Master Cangkun feigned fury, staring at Han Li with wide, fierce eyes, as if he were about to attack at the slightest provocation.
