Han Li glanced at the storage bag at his waist.
After returning the ancient lamp, although he didn't mention anything, the Murong cultivators not only sent the materials but also returned the two ancient treasures, the Purple Bronze Shield and the Flower Basket, which had been taken.
It seems these Murong people understand very well that if they want to stay in the Heavenly South for a long time, they cannot afford to offend high-level cultivators like him.
Returning these ancient treasures was also a way to prevent him from harboring any grievances.
After all, even the Murong grandmasters were somewhat wary of a young cultivator with such extraordinary abilities.
Once he got the ancient treasures back, Han Li immediately gave the Purple Bronze Shield to Silvermoon.
Although she could only use this treasure in her fox demon form, she had made significant contributions recently. Han Li, not being a stingy person, naturally wanted to reward her.
Silvermoon found the Purple Bronze Shield very handy, making it an excellent reward for her.
Perhaps due to the news of their alliance with the Murong people spreading, the Tuo Wu people hesitated for a while.
Although they sent a large number of cultivators to the edge of the grasslands, they did not launch an immediate attack, merely observing the actions of the Heavenly South and Murong people. It seemed they would not cause trouble in the near future.
However, the more cautious the Tuo Wu people were, the heavier the hearts of the Sun Yang Master and Long Han became.
Their careful approach suggested they had significant plans, likely targeting the Heavenly South.
Seeing that this standoff might be long-term, the disciples of various sects in the Heavenly South couldn't stay there indefinitely. After some discussion, they decided to implement a rotation system similar to that of the Nine Nations Alliance.
All sects would send some elite disciples to take turns stationed near the Murong territories. In case the Tuo Wu people launched an attack and the Murong people were in trouble, these disciples could support them.
The rest of the cultivators could return to their own sects.
As an elder of the Falling Cloud Sect, Han Li, along with Senior Brother Lu, had many matters to attend to. Only after most of the disciples had left could he finally break free and return to the Falling Cloud Sect.
Senior Brother Lu still had some matters to deal with and would be delayed for a while. Naturally, Han Li set off on his return journey first.
Without any delay, Han Li used the Wind Chariot to hurry along the way, shortening his journey by nearly half. But upon entering the Xi Kingdom, Han Li put the chariot away to avoid drawing too much attention.
Now, a hundred-mile distance was almost a blink of an eye for Han Li.
When Han Li saw the silhouette of Yunmeng Mountain from afar, images of Nangong Wan's beautiful face flashed in his mind, bringing a look of joy to his face.
......
"What is going on?" In a rarely known secret room in the Falling Cloud Sect, Han Li looked at the silver-haired elder, uttering each word slowly with a tone filled with pre-rage menace.
Just as he returned to the Falling Cloud Sect, before he could even reach his cave residence, the silver-haired elder intercepted him midway and brought him to this chilling secret room.
