"Brother Qian, your words are a bit exaggerated. Although Senior Han has cultivated to the Yuan Ying stage in a short time, breaking through to the Deity Transformation stage is still far-fetched. It's not something that can be easily achieved. Even reaching the late Yuan Ying stage is enough to establish dominance in one's sect. That's the real possibility." Nie Ying smiled after some thought.
"Hehe! Brother Qian, perhaps you're overthinking it. But if nothing unexpected happens, this Senior Han will have a significant influence on the situation in the Southern Region within a thousand years. And with his deep ties to your valley, if we could bring him into the alliance of the six sects, it might not be long before we can regain control of Yue Country." The cultivator named Qian spoke slowly, his eyes gleaming.
"Ties? Didn't you see earlier that although Senior Han was once from our Yellow Maple Valley, he is now an elder of the Heavenly Dao Alliance's Luo Yun Sect. What's there for our valley to leverage? Besides, you saw that he had no intention of coming back." Lei Wanhe sighed after a moment of silence.
Upon hearing this, the others were also at a loss for words.
"Why does Senior Han treat our valley like this? After all, he was once from our valley. Isn't there any room for reconciliation?" the burly man from the Giant Sword Sect said incredulously.
"I'm not at liberty to disclose the specifics. But I doubt there's much hope. However, considering his seemingly close relationship with Senior Nangong from the Concealed Moon Sect, perhaps Senior Nangong could persuade him. Even if we can't get him to rejoin our six sects, fostering good relations might still be possible." Lei Wanhe shook his head initially but then turned to the middle-aged cultivator from the Concealed Moon Sect.
"Well... that's possible. I'll have to inquire within our sect about the exact relationship between Senior Han and Senior Nangong." Tang Minghua said somewhat uncertainly.
"Let's forget about it. This matter of recruiting Yuan Ying stage cultivators isn't something we can decide. Let the elders handle it. Senior Han should appear at the grand ceremony three months from now. Let's hurry back to the alliance. This place isn't safe either." Lei Wanhe suddenly glanced around and frowned.
Upon hearing this, the others were surprised, and they no longer had the inclination to discuss the matter further. They immediately transformed into streaks of light and flew away.
Although Lei Wanhe seemed casual in his words, he was secretly worried along the way.
How could he explain this matter to the ancestor of the sect?
Wouldn't directly mentioning a disciple he had given up on in the past, who had now become as strong as him, and seemed quite dissatisfied with Yellow Maple Valley because of past events, be like directly accusing himself?
Feeling helpless and sighing a few times, Lei Wanhe could only remain silent and rush forward.
...
Because the Wind Chariot was too conspicuous!
After driving the chariot for a distance and shaking off Lei Wanhe and the others, Han Li calmly put away the chariot and continued forward using ordinary flight techniques.
Now that he had received news from Nangong Wan, and it was the worst kind, he needed to calmly think things through.
Back then, he and Nangong Wan were just casual acquaintances, meeting only twice. Due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels, there was no affection between them.
However, he had gradually come to regard Nangong Wan as his woman.
Especially after he formed his Golden Core and later his Nascent Soul, he felt he was more than capable of matching Nangong Wan. He had no doubts about it.
