161: Chapter 161 Breakthrough Feedback, Gong Shuting Encounters Danger

One billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones, hundreds of Eighth-Rank Medicinal Pills or higher, and quite a few Seventh-Rank or Eighth-Rank Spirit Medicines.

Li Xuewei was dumbfounded.

It was her first time seeing so many Spirit Stones and resources.

"Th-this, did Master really ask you to give this to me?"

She looked at Han Ming blankly, confirming.

"Mm, that is only natural. Otherwise, who else would give you so many resources?"

Han Ming nodded as if it were a matter of course.

He was worried that if he said he gave them, she wouldn't accept, so he brought up Teacher Xue Muhan.

These were Spirit Stones he earned from selling Martial Venerable exotic beasts, as well as spoils of war from killing the Thousand Kill Tower assassins and several Destiny Sect Martial Venerables.

He had also prepared a portion for Gong Shuting.

"Master is being too good to me! I will definitely Cultivate hard and not let down his good intentions."

Li Xuewei gave Han Ming a playful look and promised.

She could naturally tell that these resources were a gift from Han Ming; Master couldn't possibly give her so many Spirit Stones and resources all at once.

Moreover, she had only just left Teacher Xue Muhan not long ago, and she had only offered some guidance on her cultivation!

If she wanted to give her resources, she would have given them to her right then and there, rather than going through Han Ming.

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Li Xuewei has obtained one billion Low-Grade Spirit Stones, 180 Eighth-Rank blood qi pills, 100 Ninth-Rank blood qi pills, 50 Yellow Rank Medicinal Pills, 36 Seventh-Rank Spirit Medicines, 15 Eighth-Rank Spirit Medicines, and 2 Ninth-Rank Spirit Medicines. Synchronized feedback has been provided to the host!]

As Li Xuewei accepted the Storage Ring, the System's notification sounded in Han Ming's mind.

"Mm, as long as you know. Go back and Cultivate well!"

Seeing her expression, Han Ming knew she had figured it out, so he flicked her nose and smiled.

"No... Han Ming, can I stay here and Cultivate with you?"

Li Xuewei hugged Han Ming's arm and shook it gently, speaking in a somewhat coquettish tone.

Her face was slightly flushed, and her eyes were full of anticipation as she looked at Han Ming.

"No, a man and a woman living together—it wouldn't be good for your reputation if word got out!"

Han Ming refused without even thinking.

Just kidding, he had so many secrets; how could he possibly live with someone else?

"Alright, I understand your intentions. We'll talk about it later!"

Seeing her pout and about to say something, Han Ming hurriedly interrupted her.

"Fine!"

Although Li Xuewei was reluctant, she still obediently left Han Ming's villa.

...

"Patriarch Han, what an honor to have you here. I, Liu, failed to welcome you properly. Please, come in!"

On the other side, Han Tianlin arrived at the Recruitment Department headquarters in the Magic City, and Director Liu Xingyun personally welcomed him in.

"I wonder what guidance Patriarch Han has for me today?"

After the host and guest were seated, Director Liu Xingyun looked at Han Tianlin and asked straight to the point.

"Oh, it's like this. Two days ago, your Deputy Director Shen brought this conscription order to our Han Family, but we do not have a person named Han Chunming in our Han Family. Did you make a mistake?"

Han Tianlin handed the conscription order that Deputy Director Shen Jinghong had brought out that day to Director Liu Xingyun.

Although he did not admit that Han Chunming existed in the Han Family, the Han Family had to respond to the issued conscription order.

Otherwise, it would be defying the Alliance's conscription.

Even the Han Family dared not shoulder such a charge.

Originally, he intended not to acknowledge the existence of Han Chunming and just have the Han Family send another collateral descendant to participate in the war.

However, since Han Ming wanted to experience it for himself, he could only arrange another identity for him.

"My apologies, Patriarch Han. It must have been a mistake by Deputy Director Shen. I wonder who from your Han Family will be participating this year? I will report the names."

Director Liu Xingyun took the conscription order, looked at Han Tianlin with an apologetic face, and smiled.

In truth, he knew exactly what was going on.

"Mm, then I will have to trouble Director Liu. This is the list of personnel from our Han Family participating this year."

As Han Tianlin spoke, he handed a list to Director Liu Xingyun.

"Patriarch Han is righteous. I, Liu, admire you."

Director Liu Xingyun took the list and looked at it, feeling somewhat surprised.

Han Tianlin had actually given him three names, and all of them were at the strength of Martial Venerable or higher.

Among them, Han Tianhui was even a collateral Elder of the Han Family, with the strength of a Two-Star Martial Saint.

In fact, the Han Family only needed to conscript one person this year.

"To guard the Alliance and guard the Blue Star, our Han Family is duty-bound!"

Han Tianlin said righteously.

In reality, he added two more people just to have them secretly protect Han Ming!

Although Han Ming possessed the record of slaying a Five-Star Martial Venerable, he was the future of their Han Family; being too careful was never a bad thing.

"Good. We depart in one month. I ask Patriarch Han to have them head to the Recruitment Plaza to assemble at that time."

Director Liu Xingyun uploaded the information of the few individuals and gave instructions.

"Mm, then many thanks, Director Liu."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Han Tianlin did not stay long and stood up to take his leave.

"Patriarch Han is too polite. This is only my duty!"

Director Liu Xingyun smiled and saw him out.

...

"What? Tianci is dead?"

At the Gu Family, Gu Qingcheng also received the news of Li Tianci's death and stood up in shock.

"Damn it, that trash Li Beixiong can't even protect his own grandson. Has he lived his life in vain all these years?"

She smashed the coffee table in front of her with a palm, her face looking ugly as she soared into the sky, flying toward the Li Family.

Although she rarely returned to the Li Family and still considered herself a member of the Gu Family.

But regardless, Li Tianci was her grandson. Now that he was dead, how could she not be angry?

"What is Qingcheng doing? So angry."

Gu Linyuan glanced at the direction Gu Qingcheng had left in, his brows slightly furrowed.

"Heh... I heard that Li Tianci of the Li Family is dead!"

Gu Qingyue sneered, disdainfully saying, "Does she really think she is a member of the Li Family? She should look at her own status."

"Li Tianci is dead? Who killed him?"

Gu Linyuan's brows furrowed even tighter. He didn't care about Gu Qingyue's attitude and asked in surprise.

He was already used to it; these two sisters had never seen eye to eye since they were young.

"I don't know. But I heard he died at the scene of the Martial Saint battle outside the city yesterday. It might be related to that powerhouse who slew the Martial Saint Blood Demon."

Gu Qingyue shook her head and recounted the situation she knew.

"If that's the case, then it's troublesome. This Li Tianci died for nothing."

Gu Linyuan shook his head.

He had also felt the battle fluctuations deep in the Black Wind Mountain Range yesterday.

But since it didn't concern him, he couldn't be bothered to join the excitement.

Later, he heard that when the Martial Saint powerhouses from the Supervision Bureau and the Martial Arts Alliance arrived, the battle was already over, leaving only a chaotic scene and the corpse of a One-Star Martial Saint Blood Demon.

That person had already left.

On the other side, after Li Xuewei left, Han Ming waited for a long time but did not see a reply from Gong Shuting.

Just as he was preparing to enter the Cave Heaven World to comprehend the Space Profound Truth, the System's notification sounded.

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Gong Shuting has obtained 1 Eighth-Rank Purple Sun Flower. Synchronized feedback has been provided to the host!]

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Ye Yunfeng has reached a Breakthrough to One-Star Martial General. Blood qi value +1 million points. Synchronized feedback to host: Blood qi value +1 million points!]

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Nangong Li has reached a Breakthrough to Two-Star Martial General. Blood qi value +10 million points. Synchronized feedback to host: Blood qi value +10 million points!]

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Li Feifan has refined the dragon blood soul fruit. Physique and Divine Soul have significantly improved, Space Intent has increased to the third level, and he has reached a Breakthrough to Three-Star Martial King. Blood qi value +1 billion points. Synchronized feedback has been provided to the host!]

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Ji Lingyue has reached a Breakthrough to Seven-Star Martial Emperor. Blood qi value +10 billion points. Synchronized feedback to host: Blood qi value +10 billion points!]

Suddenly, with a "hum."

Waves of blood qi energy surged out from Han Ming's body, quickly refined by the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, and turned into pure True Essence that flowed into his Dantian.

At the same time, a peculiar force surged toward his limbs, bones, and Divine Soul Sea of Consciousness, continuously tempering his Physique and Divine Soul.

"Not bad. Both my Physique and Divine Soul have been condensed quite a bit."

Ten minutes later, Han Ming slowly opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted.

The aura on his body had also increased quite a bit.

Although the increase was not much, he was already an Eight-Star Martial Venerable, and every little bit of improvement was precious.

As for the two levels of Space Intent fed back by Li Feifan, it could only be said that it was better than nothing.

[Ding, detected that host's disciple Gong Shuting is in life-threatening danger. Does the host wish to go and rescue her?]

"What?"

Suddenly, another System notification sounded, and Han Ming stood up in shock.

Just now, Gong Shuting obtained the Eighth-Rank Purple Sun Flower; he had thought it was feedback from Gong Shuting's Breakthrough. He didn't expect that she had actually encountered danger.

And that the System had such a function—it was his first time knowing about it.
