Han Li stroked his chin, and with a sweep of his divine sense, he heard the murmurs and conversations of many people pouring into his ears.
"Who is this person?"
"Such a unfamiliar face, is he a new disciple?"
"How come Senior Sister Mu is accompanying this person?"
"Is this person related to Senior Sister Mu? Senior Sister Mu never travels with male cultivators, how could she come with him!"
...
A series of questions and admiring words reached Han Li's ears distinctly.
Although Han Li remained calm on the surface, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Then he stepped away from the front of the hall and blended into the crowd.
Even so, Han Li could still feel many gazes staring at him incessantly.
"Junior Brother Han, didn't expect to meet again after our parting." Just then, a seemingly hearty voice came from behind him.
Han Li was startled and turned to look.
He saw a big man standing several zhang away behind him, it was Du Dong.
At this moment, he greeted Han Li with a smile on his face.
Han Li's eyes flashed with a hint of curiosity, then he smiled politely and clasped his fists, saying, "So it's Senior Brother Du. I wonder, is Senior Brother doing well with Senior Uncle Jiang?"
Senior Uncle Jiang was the white-haired old man who took Du Dong away that day.
"Good, very good." The big man chuckled, seeming very amiable.
Han Li sneered inwardly a few times, but on the surface, he engaged in conversation about their respective experiences since they last met.
According to Du Dong, it seemed that the white-haired old man thought highly of him in terms of talisman crafting talent and was keen on nurturing him further. When talking about this, Du Dong's face was full of joy, as if he was extremely excited.
Listening to this, Han Li couldn't help but feel sorry for the white-haired old man. This person was focusing on nurturing someone like Du Dong, who harbored ill intentions. In the future, he would probably be implicated.
With such thoughts, Han Li naturally didn't mention anything about Senior Uncle Jiang's intentions. He just chatted with Du Dong casually.
However, at this moment, Du Dong suddenly wore a mysterious expression on his face and said to Han Li, "Junior Brother Han, do you know? Sister Mu, who is specially responsible for guiding you, is the number one beauty of our Tianquan Peak. She can be ranked in the top three among all the disciples of the Falling Cloud Sect. Now that you and Senior Sister Mu have arrived together, it's bound to cause quite a stir."
"Not afraid, but it has already happened!" Han Li smiled wryly and said helplessly after scanning the surroundings and then looked meaningfully at Du Dong.
"However, Junior Brother and Senior Sister Mu arrived together on a flying treasure. Did Senior Sister Mu tell you anything related to this gathering?" Du Dong's tone changed, and he asked casually as if it were unimportant.
"Oh! About this. She didn't! Did Brother Du hear any news? Why not tell Junior Brother?" Han Li's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes changed to a meaningful smile as he glanced at Du Dong.
The big man's originally honest smile changed when Han Li looked at him. He suddenly felt as if his secrets had been exposed.
He was shocked.
