Han Jin remained completely unimpressed; his attitude was entirely self-willed.
This action has made me clear that he is actually a person with a meticulous inner self.
Since I have the Tian Gong Spring on hand, it is likely that he has already read the things I have written about the San Shit Chong and is fully aware of them.
"Master Luo Xian, please send several gentlemen to bring out the several elders of the Bai family, as well as the Immortal, to ensure their safe return to the Four Rules Mountain." Han Jin steered the topic away and delved into his main point.
"Well, it seems he doesn't want to listen. Alright, old Gong Yeye, I am being overly sentimental. Please be careful with the real bugs."
It was evident that old Gong was displeased.
However, even though he was unhappy, he still reminded Han Jin.
Then, as the dawn broke, old Gong disappeared without a trace.
I let out a slight sigh and instructed Mr. Wu Jinluan and the others to carry the bodies into the cave.
The several scoundrels from the Míng Fáng looked somewhat bewildered and were unaware of what had happened here.
After Mr. Wu Jinlan addressed them a few times, they followed him into the White Wolf Cave to lend a hand.
I don't know what to say to Han Jin, as, in terms of status, I have no right to speak, so I don't say anything else.
Xiang Ke and another small monk also entered the cave with Mr. Wu Jinluan. They were more careful and cautious when handling the corpses.
The four bodies were not causing any trouble; they were quickly moved outside the cave.
The two monk Taoists who had come out to deal with the situation were also moved to a location near the corpse by Ma Sanzhi.
Ma Sanzhi indicated that I should put down the half-corpse Taoist on my back.
After I did as instructed, Ma Sanzhi looked at the corpses and sighed, "In this lifetime, even old Mao hasn't been as wealthy as this. Compared to these few bodies, even these three half-step immortals are much stronger than the people I've had in my hands before. However, it's a pity they are still only half-step immortals; the true immortals should still be returned to the Four Rules Mountain. Ah well, with only three bodies, it's more or less manageable."
While Ma Sanzhi was saying that, his lips were actually curved into a smile.
While the gentlemen did not all emerge, they were still examining the structure of the White Wolf Cave, which also had good feng shui.
I know that Mr. Wu Jinlan intended to protect me, and those words were all said to keep up with me. However, in a place with good feng shui, not looking around would be unbecoming of a gentleman.
Not only were they, but also some of the lower-level scoundrels from the Míng Fáng went back to the White Wolf Cave and couldn't move a step further.
I am well aware of the reasons.
I know the reason. When I learned the nine schools of funeral and burial arts, I used to make ritual objects with the skin and bones of the Five Immortals, but now that use has become unnecessary.
For them, this operation not only did not result in any injuries but just some fright. In addition to receiving the promised benefits from Fe Fang, they could also obtain these immortal corpse bodies, which was a great fortune!
It can be said that this journey was a grand success!
At this moment, Hu Jiang and Hu Li from the Yuan Xian Taoist Temple walked over.
The other Taoist disciples have already lifted Liu Taiyuan and a few people are carrying the charred Five Immortal corpse.
What had happened earlier was evident, and there was no need to explain anything.
Hu Jiang and Hu Li bowed slightly to each other. After glancing at the two Taoists who had come out to perform rituals, they said in a low voice, "We kindly request that you descend and rest at the Taoist temple first."
They had an expression of fear, but they dare not show anger or speak up.
Overall, the arrival of people from Tie Jie Mountain had led to a situation where they took a complete loss without saying a word.
"We do not need rest, as the matter of Liu Taiyuan was not intentional on my part, but something that had to be done. Otherwise, we could not have kept the two of them and lost two lean wolves and one white-eyed wolf. This is what your Tie Jie Mountain needs to handle. I hope it does not end up with as many escapees as in the past, and also, there is unrest on the Jiuding Mountain, so you may also need to thoroughly clean it up." Han Jin glanced at the ground and said.
"Yes..." Hu Jiang and Hu Li nodded reluctantly.
"Several of you should rest for a while. The mountain gate will be visited again and may require some explanation from you regarding the situation. Otherwise, we won't be able to handle it well." Hu Jiang added, his eyes filled with pleading.
"There's no need. If you want to express any dissatisfaction, you can come to the Four Rules Mountain to find me. But I imagine that the head of the Tie Jie Mountain Taoist Temple wouldn't want to act recklessly, as acting recklessly is something I wouldn't fear." Han Jin said without hiding his intentions, and he was also more aware of the purpose of keeping us at the Yuan Xian Taoist Temple!
Lao Gong's judgment was one of the right ones.
Han Jin's formidable strength allowed him to ignore some potential risks directly, which was also a reason.
Hu Jiang and Hu Li exchanged a glance, trying to remain calm as they explained, "Senior, you are mistaken. We understand these matters. How could the head of the temple and the elders not be aware? Keeping you here is for both communication with them and also to express our gratitude to Senior for Tie Jie Mountain."
Han Jin paid no attention to them, and Hu Jiang and Hu Li had to retreat awkwardly, carrying the disciples who had been rendered unconscious by Liu Taiyuan and climbing down the mountain.
After a while, the gentlemen and the scoundrels from the Míng Fáng came out.
The gentlemen, without exception, were beaming with joy on their faces, excited beyond measure. Especially He Lin'an, who was muttering something to himself and seemed reluctant to leave the White Wolf Cave, as if he didn't want to go.
The several scoundrels from the Míng Fáng, on the other hand, were carrying large and small packages. It was clear that they had plundered all of the immortals' corpses in the cave.
And as they approached, they even explained to me that they wouldn't keep these corpses for themselves; they would hand them over to Fe Fang to enhance the power of the Míng Fáng.
I nodded in understanding.
The group then descended the mountain.
The number of corpses was indeed substantial, and almost everyone was needed to carry them.
As for the half-corpse Taoist, I still carried it on my back, and Ma Sanzhi followed me closely, almost always by my side.
On the way down the mountain, I could still vaguely sense that there were many unseen eyes watching us from the shadows.
It was evident that these were the troubled inner five-element immortal beings, and even the three wolves were among them.
The people from the Yuan Xian Taoist Temple were not capable of handling them, and we also had difficulty catching them. It was unnecessary to catch them.
Halfway down the mountain, Ma Sanzhi had been animatedly talking to me, implying that the number of corpses was sufficient and there was an excess. Even if they didn't use the White clan of the Four Rules Mountain, it would be no problem as long as everything went smoothly.
The next step is to return directly to JinYang to handle some important matters.
I slightly exhaled and said, "We've already wasted a considerable amount of time. I only hope that Wu Bing and the others don't cause any trouble."
"Haha, there won't be any trouble. Who can catch up to me? Plus, I have you, my fated companion." Ma Sanzhi waved his hand grandly and displayed a very hearty attitude.
By noon, we finally reached the foot of the mountain.
Xiang Ke and another small monk went to the town entrance to drive over. It was impossible to carry all these corpses through the town.
I was worried that the Yuan Xian Taoist Temple might not give a damn about it and try to stop Xiang Ke and the others. Fortunately, no such thing happened.
All the corpses were loaded onto the car, and then we got in.
Xiang Ke drove the car, leaving the town and driving up the mountain path.
In the first place, everything was normal and there were no unexpected incidents at all.
Ma Sanzhi didn't say anything about feeling off, and the mood in the car was quite high. Even Han Jin, he didn't seem to be afraid of motion sickness anymore.
Just then, Ma Sanzhi quietly looked out the car window for a while. Suddenly, his brow furrowed, and his face turned dark.
He first glanced at Han Jin, who remained silent without speaking.
Wu Jinlan and the others noticed the problem. He shouted, "Xiang Ke, did you change your route?!"
The other two gentlemen directly stood up and were heading towards the driver's seat.
At that moment, the car suddenly hit the brakes, and the two gentlemen fell forward and landed on their faces!
The inertia was too great, and the stop was too sudden. They collided with the ground heavily, wincing in pain.
"Xiang Ke, what are you doing!?" Wu Jinlan was shocked and terrified.
He looked at Ma Sanzhi and Han Jin again.
Ma Sanzi remained unmoved, but Han Jin seemed to be thinking deeply. With no eyebrows or eyelashes, his eyelids didn't twitch at all.
"Sit down, we are from Tie Jie Mountain. They don't want us to leave, and they have made it clear that they want to keep us. If they act like bad masters, I just want to see what abilities the mountain master or the temple master, or even the Black Grandmother, have. Why can't they solve the White Wolf Cave, but they dare to keep me instead."
Han Jin's words were cold and emotionless, and it was impossible to discern any emotions. However, it was the lack of emotions that expressed the most profound feeling.
I felt a discomfort in my chest, along with a hint of hidden concern.
Lao Gong's concerns were very reasonable.
But now, not counting the San Shizi True Worm, without the influence of the worms, Han Jin's emotions were too... quirky?
It seemed as if he were to vent any dissatisfaction.
Tie Jie Mountain would be in for a big trouble if they crossed him at this time.
And this is not a good thing for the Four Rules Mountain……
I placed my hand in my pocket, feeling for my phone.
My intention was to contact He Youyuan, but suddenly I felt a sharp sensation, and it was Han Jin who looked at me.
"Lu Xiushen, do you think that these trivial matters should be reported to the mountain gate?"
"I don't want you to do that."
"The Four Rules Mountain has been hiding for too long. Everyone in the Yin-Yang world knows that we are weak. But is the Four Rules Mountain really weak? In the past, because of me, the True People suffered a setback. Today, after years of accumulation, it has finally been enough. I am atoning for my sins."
"Four Rules Mountain wants to raise its head high and make the Yin-Yang world respect us!"
"I have always spoken sense and followed the rules. When encountering those who do not speak sense, naturally, one must make them calm down and listen."
"If you don't want the mountain gate to be magnificent and respected, I will consider it a problem with you."
"I think you have no problem."
"Do you have a problem?"
Han Jin's words may sound light and casual, but his attitude is extremely stern.
A fine layer of sweat trickled down from my forehead, and I slowly withdrew my hand from my pocket.
Upon seeing that both my hands were on my knees, Han Jin seemed to be somewhat satisfied.
"You are a good friend of Han Qi. I will help Han Qi pave the way, both for the White Family and for the Han Family. In the past, I alone survived, and both our families' bloodlines were endangered. Today will not be like that."
Han Jin's face was smiling.
In the past, he was just quiet. Now, I feel he's a bit terrifying...
No, not terrifying. It's more like being sinisterly strange, making people feel that something is off...
Ma Sanzi was still sitting quietly in his seat, completely still, showing no reaction at all.
As for Xiang Ke at the steering wheel, he was completely indifferent and continued to drive.
The small monk sitting next to me on the passenger side then turned his head to look at us.
I noticed two tiny white tips barely visible around his neck, as if they were the tail of a fox.
