Since things had already taken shape, she didn’t intend to go back on her word; Jiang Baiye wanted to see whether Han Li’s promise could be fulfilled and if he could truly help her advance to the Myriad Phenomena Realm and the True Martial Realm.

Watching Jiang Baiye’s departing figure, Han Li’s Spiritual Sense followed her until she neared the Canghai Sect, and only then did he withdraw it.

Jiang Baiye was now his person, and Han Li did not want any accidents to befall her on her way back.

Seeing that Jiang Baiye had returned safely, Han Li’s figure also disappeared from the spot, and the next moment he was back inside the carriage.

Upon seeing Han Li’s figure, Lu Tianxiang’s eyes brightened, but then her brows furrowed slightly; she smelled a fragrance coming from Han Li.

There was no scent on Han Li’s body before, which meant that he had met with a woman in the short time he was away.

Lu Tianxiang felt she shouldn’t be angry, she didn’t like Han Li, after all; her presence in the carriage was due to being seized by him, she was there against her will, yet she couldn’t help feeling somewhat upset.

After all, Han Li had just left her alone to meet with another woman; did that mean she lacked appeal?

“What’s the matter, Tianxiang? Are you jealous?”

Han Li, with his keen senses, instantly noticed Lu Tianxiang’s unusual demeanor, and he wrapped his large hand around her tender waist, chuckling in her ear.

“Let go of me, who’s jealous of you, dream on.”

Lu Tianxiang extended her jade hand to swat Han Li’s hand away, but Han Li didn’t feel much force behind her push, and his smile grew even brighter.

Han Li lifted Lu Tianxiang up and placed her on his lap, then leaned down to kiss her.

Lu Tianxiang’s jade hand blocked her red lips, preventing Han Li from moving closer, and she turned her head aside, scoffing, “If you want to kiss, go find that little vixen from just now, or one of your beautiful concubines.”

Han Li felt a surge of delight in his heart. Lu Tianxiang might not realize what her behavior implied, but Han Li understood clearly that their relationship had just grown closer.

“What are you smiling about? Aren’t you quite capable? Why didn’t you bring back that little vixen from vour secret meeting to be a concubine? Surelv vou didn’t lose to her,” Lu Tianxiang humphed, her willowy brows slightly furrowing, her displeasure written all over her face.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Tianxiang, you’ve misunderstood me, I was indeed dealing with some business just now; a Hollow Realm Master and a God Refining Realm real person had barged in,” Han Li explained patiently, though his big hand was not behaving.

“Stop moving—”

Lu Tianxiang struggled briefly, then coldly demanded, “Then how do you explain the fragrance on you?”

Without hesitation, Han Li responded, “The God Refining Realm real person was a female cultivator, she tried to sneak attack me, and I caught her and sealed her cultivation to teach her a lesson.” “Where is she?” Lu Tianxiang suddenly asked.

Han Li: “Who?”

“That God Refining Realm female cultivator. Given your lustful nature, you should have taken her back as a concubine, unless she was too ugly?” Lu Tianxiang wondered aloud, it wouldn’t make sense for him to have let her go; this didn’t align with her understanding of Han Li.

“She is beautiful, just not as much as Tianxiang,” he said.

Even though Han Li thought the two women were similar in appearance, in front of Lu Tianxiang, he didn’t mind saying she was more beautiful.

Sure enough, hearing Han Li say that, the corners of Lu Tianxiang’s mouth curled up slightly, her eyes and brows seeming all the more attractive.

“It’s a bit of trouble to bring her back now, so I let her go, but she should come looking for me within a year, and then you’ll be sisters,” Han Li continued.

Lu Tianxiang was immediately displeased, “So it’s not troublesome to take me back, is that it?”

“No, Tianxiang, listen to me explain…” Han Li spent some time and finally managed to appease Lu Tianxiang.

He could feel that Lu Tianxiang’s attitude towards him was improving every day; surely, the strategy of gradual influence was the right one.

After sharing a tender moment with Lu Tianxiang and feeling the baby inside her belly for a while, Han Li smiled and said, “Our child’s future is certainly that of an extraordinary prodigy.”

“That must be because of my talents. If the child inherits yours, then he or she will be just an ordinary person,” Lu Tianxiang said with her haughty air, unable to resist taking a hit at him.

“Yes, yes, yes, Tianxiang, the Sect Hierarch, is a peerless genius, unrivaled under the heavens,” Han Li immediately agreed.

After a while, Han Li suddenly thought of something and asked, “Tianxiang, no one should know about your chase after me, right?”

Things had been going a bit too smoothly lately. Mainly because the taste of Lu Tianxiang was too enticing, and he had tasted the marrow of bliss; his energy was all spent on how to win Lu Tianxiang’s heart sooner, and he had grown somewhat negligent.

“Heh, only now you think to deal with these issues,” Lu Tianxiang gave him a sidelong glance, scoffing coldly.

Embracing Lu Tianxiang’s soft body, Han Li kissed her forehead, then nipped her earlobe and said, “Come on, Tianxiang, just tell me.”

After hesitating for a moment, Lu Tianxiang still decided to reveal the truth, as she didn’t want to cause any trouble for Han Li now.

“After escaping to Leizhou, I hid myself in Qingyun Manor and took over the Diancang Sect—it was with the Diancang Sect’s power that I was able to track you down,” she said.

“No one else knows I came to capture you, only the Diancang Master does. However, he doesn’t know about the Rebirth Pill or that I’ve fallen into your hands.”

“After all, you ambushed me halfway through with a different identity, and then I was pursued by Da Qian; in the end, you saved me with that identity.” “Not just the Diancang Master, the outside world is probably guessing who that mysterious Great Grandmaster is; unfortunately, no one can trace it back to you. You have hidden yourself very well,” Lu Tianxiang said slowly, and then she seemed to be somewhat inexplicably emotional.

Han Li nodded, feeling relieved. He had also been getting updates about the outside world recently; various forces were reacting, but no one knew it was him..
