Gu Tongxuan put away the mirror: “Daoist Han, turn around now and continue to concoct the Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pill as if you know nothing about the truth of this pill. In this way, the Gu family will not only refrain from troubling you, but will also give you a reward far beyond your expectations. What do you think?”

“Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pill.”

This was the first time Han Yi heard the name of the nefarious pill the Gu family wanted to concoct.

“And what if 1 refuse?”

Han Yi looked up at the surrounding formation, and his face instantly became calm. When he scolded Gu Tongxuan a moment ago, just hoping against hope that perhaps the Gu family had not known that he had knowledge about the pill concoction, he could make a move with the element of surprise. But, he had not expected the Gu family to be equally ready for every eventuality.

“If you refuse? Daoist Han, the moment you set foot in the Gu family’s home, you have to submit whether you want to or not.”

Gu Tongxuan’s face suddenly turned menacing.

Han Yi looked at Gu Tongxuan, puzzled: “Gu Zhijing is not in Nanhuai City, and you three Qi Cultivating Cultivators dare to take this outrageous action. Just what is this all about? Even if you kill me, once the Xuandan Sect conducts an investigation, they will definitely find out. By then, the Gu family will surely face annihilation.”

This had been bothering Han Yi all along, and it was also one of the main reasons why he had let his guard down.

It was impossible for Gu Zhijing to betray a Qi Cultivation Stage Alchemist at the expense of destroying the entire Gu family. It just didn’t make sense, and no matter how Han Yi thought about it, he couldn’t figure out the crux of the matter.

Gu Tongxuan did not answer Han Yi’s doubts, but stared straight at him: “Daoist Han, I’ll give you one more opportunity. Return to concoct the Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pill. If you succeed, we’ll all be safe, and you will receive a hefty reward. However, if you refuse, we’ll have no choice but to kill you and use your divine soul as the material for the Soul Pill. We will continue to issue tasks, and there will always be alchemists from Xuandan Sect willing to concoct the Yin-Yang Soul Nourishing Pill.”

“As for the possibility of Xuandan Sect discovering this and sending a Foundation Establishment Elder to investigate, Daoist Han, you can rest assured. If the Gu family dares to do such a thing, we will make sure it is done flawlessly.”

Han Yi suddenly looked concerned: “Is Elder Gu really not in Nanhuai City?”

Gu Tongxuan did not answer, but suddenly felt like he had overlooked something. However, after careful thought, he found no issue. Could it be that the early-stage Qi cultivation of Han Yi is a match for their three at the peak of Qi cultivation, so that they couldn’t even prevent him from escaping?

Seeing that Han Yi had no intention of cooperating, he shouted angrily, “Kill him.”

With a flip of his hand, a spirit talisman appeared. The talisman was no larger than a palm, and with a light toss, it turned into an illusory form, rapidly enlarging to a huge spirit talisman about ten meters in size.

Within the illusory spirit talisman, wails and howls of wolves suddenly rang out, and five deformed evil ghosts emerged.

The top-grade magical tool, the Five Ghosts Talisman.

His two Gu family clansmen also activated their magical tools, all of which were high-grade tools.

Just then.

A flash of black and green light passed by, chilling Gu Tongxuan’s heart.

Thud.

The sound was not loud, merely like the sound of a piece of paper being punctured.

However, the moment the sound was heard, the Five Ghosts Talisman suddenly convulsed. The five evil ghosts that had just appeared on the talisman froze, and instantly dissipated.

The Five Ghosts Talisman, which had just been activated and unfolded, rapidly shrank, returning to its palm-sized form and fell to the ground. But a fractured hole on it showed that it was now in a damaged state.

Of the two magical weapons held by the two Gu family elders beside him, one was a sabre that had just been taken out. It saw the shimmering black and green light and then broke in half, leaving only the hilt. The other, a high-grade sword, met the same fate and was broken on the spot.

“Is this… a top-grade magical tool?”

“Not good!!”

Gu Tongxuan was about to take something out of his storage bag when he was overtaken by the black and green light.

With a swoosh, the light pierced through his forehead, and then, with a light sweep, it emitted two black and green sword lights, slashing off the heads of the two horrified Gu family elders.

The black and green light returned and fell into Han Yi’s back.

The top-grade magical tool, the Green Reed Sword.

Since he had already made his move, Han Yi naturally wouldn’t hold back.

Moreover, a large part of his previous lapse was because he knew that Gu Zhijing was not at the Gu family’s place. There was no one at the entire Gu family that he needed to be afraid of, so what was there to fear?

Han Yi quickly appeared by the side of the three Gu family members, collected the damaged magical tools and storage bags, and cast out three Explosion Symbols, turning the three Gu family members into ashes.

Then, he disappeared from the scene.

As he expected, the formation surrounding the backyard courtyard was just a shield type formation, shielding sound and energy fluctuations, similar to the Soul Locking Array he used on the Azure Dragon Peak.

Speaking of it.

From the moment Gu Tongxuan shouted “Kill him” to Han Yi leaving the formation range, not more than two breaths’ time had passed.

Operating the Concealment Skill to its extreme, Han Yi took a few steps, left the Gu family mansion, and walked on the streets of Nanhuai City. Shortly after, he left the city gates and headed to Tong City.

He had planned to directly report the Gu family to the official cultivators of Daqian in Nanhuai City, but after killing the three Gu family members, he wasn’t sure how to explain it all. In case it backfired and implicated him, it would be troublesome.

So, he decided to wait until he returned to the Xuandan Sect before reporting.

His trip to Tong City wasn’t to attend the auction, but because only in Tong City could he find a flying boat for inter-city transport. Once he boarded the flying boat, he could return to Nanyang County and then find his way back to the Xuandan Sect..
