Han Li smiled without much concern and vanished from the sight.

Instead of meeting Jiang Baiye right away, Han Li appeared behind the Hollow Realm Master and, raising his hand, slapped him on the back of his head.

For a mid-stage Hollow Void Stage grandmaster, the gap in combat ability compared to Han Li was too vast. Han Li had already initiated his move, and only then did the grandmaster barely begin to react.

The Hollow Realm Master had no chance to retaliate before Han Li’s Gang Yuan surged into his body in an instant, forcing all his Gang Yuan back into his Dantlan ancl spiritual sea, sealing It ort.

With his powers sealed, the Hollow Realm Master was no different from an ordinary man, and Han Li knocked him out with a slap.

With a flash, Han Li appeared behind Jiang Baiye and suddenly spoke.

“Jiang Baiye, how dare you come to see me?”

Startled by the voice and feeling the presence behind her, Jiang Baiye’s divine sword immediately resonated, ready to unsheathe itself for battle.

Han Li slapped the divine sword with his palm, and the sword immediately calmed down, ceasing its humming.

Feeling like a thorn was in her back, Jiang Baiye knew it was Han Li who had arrived. Her guess was confirmed, and after taking a deep breath, Jiang Baiye turned around, attempting to lock gazes with Han Li.

She was shocked to find that Han Li was much closer than she thought, almost leaning on her back. As she turned, her red lips touched two warm, moist lips.

“Shameless!”

Jiang Baiye immediately tried to retreat, but found her cultivation sealed in the blink of an eye, her body unable to move, and then she was pulled into Han Li’s embrace.

From a distance, under the dome of the sky and the moonlight, a handsome man and a beautiful woman leaned on each other tenderly, their affection deep and long, like a pair of fairy lovers.

But in reality, the usually cold and fairy-like Jiang Baiye was swearing up a storm, although she kept repeating the same few words.

“Shameless!”

“Bastard!”

“You lecher!”

“Let me go this instant!”

“I’m going to scream…”

Han Li held Jiang Baiye tightly in his arms and suddenly let out an evil chuckle, speaking like a great devil, “Go ahead, scream. Even if you scream your throat raw, no one will come.”

In the area covered by his spiritual sense, no one else had noticed this place, and Han Li had even concentrated on creating a Gang Yuan barrier to block out the noise, making it even less likely for the outside world to hear.

“I…” Jiang Baiye trembled all over, biting her red lip, but she didn’t continue cursing.

She realized that the more she cursed, the more excited Han Li became, and she couldn’t find any particularly nasty words to say anyway.

So, Jiang Baiye simply gave in.

Now that her cultivation was sealed, she had no means of acting, and even though she had anticipated this possibility, when it actually happened, it still left Jiang Baiye feeling powerless.

“Jiang Baiye, I let you go last time out of sheer kindness, and here you are presenting yourself to me again. Could it be that you’ve fallen for this old ancestor and wish to be my wife?”

Holding Jiang Baiye’s slender waist with one hand, Han Li’s other hand was not behaving. He whispered softly into the ear of the cool beauty.

Feeling the bursts of warm breath on her ear and the heat coming from Han Li’s body, Jiang Baiye’s face turned red with embarrassment, but she still tried to maintain a cold tone as she said:

“Shameless, I would never fall for a lecher like you.”

“I’m here today to take back the Supreme Body Nourishing Furnace of our sect, not to be your wife or concubine. Get rid of your wishful thinking.”

“Is that so?”

Han Li chuckled softly, bent down, and captured Jiang Baiye’s red lips. Jiang Baiye struggled, but it was of no use.

After a long while, Han Li finally let her go, laughing as he said, “Still quite unfamiliar, eh? It seems you’re still reserved for me.”

“You really are a bastard!” Jiang Baiye was frantic, knowing what he meant.

After her previous mistake led to her capture by Han Li, not only had he used a Shadow Leaving Stone to record her in various shameful poses, but he also stole her first kiss.

As the Sword Immortal, the number one beauty of Sanzhou, with such high standards, how could she casually choose a partner for cultivation?

So all this time, she remained the aloof Sword Immortal, chased after by countless people—wasn’t it normal for her to be unfamiliar?

She hadn’t kissed anyone else, so how had she become reserved for him?

Feeling extremely uncomfortable under Han Li’s lewd touches, Jiang Baiye tried hard to resist, but there was an unusual sensation in her heart, reminding her of what happened the time Han Li sealed her cultivation.

After teasing Jiang Baiye thoroughly, Han Li then whispered in her ear, “Jiang Baiye, it’s not impossible for you to take back the Body-Cultivating Furnace, as long as you marry me. Then we can talk.”

“And I won’t treat you poorly, I’ll marry you as my wife, not take you as a concubine. What do you think?”

“I don’t think much of it at all!” Jiang Baiye’s voice was cold as she emphatically refused.

Pausing for a moment, ignoring Han Li’s wandering hand, Jiang Baiye continued, “I can exchange other things for the Body-Cultivating Furnace.”

Han Li stopped his movements, sneering as he said, “The Body-Cultivating Furnace is a Lower-Grade Heaven Rank magical treasure, immensely useful; surely you are well aware of its powers. What could you possibly offer in exchange?

“Moreover, the Body-Cultivating Furnace is a replica of the ancient Supreme

Life Nurturing Furnace, just currently sealed. If unsealed, it would at least be a Supreme Grade Heaven Rank magical treasure, perhaps even a Divine Weapon. Can you afford such an exchange?”

Truth be told, Han Li himself doubted that the Body-Cultivating Furnace was merely a replica of the Life-Prolonging Furnace, but that didn’t stop him from saying so, as long as it served to intimidate Jiang Baiye.

Just like with Lu Tianxiang, he genuinely wished to claim Jiang Baiye’s heart and body completely, to have her devote herself to him wholeheartedly, and not merely play with her.

With Jiang Baiye’s loyalty, Han Li would gain a powerful ally. Given her aptitude, with substantial cultivation on his part, she could one day become a Great Grandmaster of the Myriad Phenomena Realm.

Playing forcefully would only let him possess Jiang Baiye’s body, but she would not heed his commands, nor would she be able to assist him.

Since advancing to the Myriad Phenomena Realm in terms of combat ability, Han Li’s mindset had changed. Rather than settling for easily obtained, eager concubines, he preferred conquering women of exceptional talent, beauty, cultivation, and renown.

Han Li found this to be more challenging. The matter of producing offspring could be left to the beautiful concubines; his descendants were already actively spreading their branches.

In simple terms, the Elder Ancestor Han’s taste had changed from quantity to quality.

Taking concubines was an easy task for the current Elder Ancestor Han. Those women, once married to him, quickly devoted their hearts to him.

But women like Lu Tianxiang and Jiang Baiye, the favored daughters of heaven, were rare gems that required effort to pursue.

Though he could easily seize Jiang Baiye’s body, forcing her to produce offspring, what would be the point? Couldn’t any of the lesser concubines serve that purpose?

If he were to force himself on every favored daughter of heaven, he would undoubtedly attract trouble. Thus, Elder Ancestor Han sought both Jiang Baiye’s body and her heart.

This way, not only would he avoid trouble, but he would also gain a valuable ally. Jiang Baiye could bear his offspring as well, killing several birds with one

stone.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Baiye fell silent for a time before weakly saying, “The Body-Cultivating Furnace is just that, not some replica of the ancient Supreme

Life Nurturing Furnace.”

It was already difficult enough for her to retrieve a Lower Grade Heaven Rank Body-Cultivating Furnace; should it carry the label of a replica of an ancient treasure, its value would skyrocket manifold, well beyond her means of exchange..
