This was because Mo Fengwu was accompanying an old woman of about fifty years old that was reading scriptures out loud. She appeared completely at peace.
After Han Li silently looked on for a moment, he ultimately decided not to disturb her. He turned around and quietly left.
Toward this particular girl, it may be better if he didn’t meet her!
‘Perhaps living a peaceful life without being reminded of those painful memories is best for her!’ Han Li thought with melancholy.
Han Li then left Yuejing and first made a trip to Jia Yuan City. Since he had promised to avenge the Mo Estate, he figured that he may as well pay a visit and take a look.
Although the Devil Dao hadn’t come to stir trouble, he reckoned that Jia Yuan City didn’t currently contain any high level cultivators due to the upcoming great battle. He only had to secretly get rid of the Rainbow Sect’s Sect Master. Even if he angered a few Spirit Beast Mountain disciples, they wouldn’t be able to find out it was him.
In addition to causing trouble for the Rainbow Sect, he thought he’d take a look to see how Sun Ergou was managing the Fourth Level Gang.
He had left behind this back up plan several years ago, and now, he wanted to see if it still held any use.
With that in mind, Han Li rushed toward Jia Yuan City on his Divine Wind Boat.
The last time he was in Jia Yuan City was over ten years ago. However, many of the memories remained vivid in his mind and left a deep impression on him.
……
Five days later, a youth appeared in front of a long established restaurant in Jia Yuan City. This person stood on the side of the street and looked at the restaurant's sign with squinted eyes.
The person with the strange expression was Han Li, who had just entered the city. After standing there for a moment, he sighed and calmly walked in.
He went to the second floor and saw that the table by the window where he had sat at all those years ago happened to be empty.
Han Li happily walked over to it without the slightest hesitation.
Just as he sat down, a waiter politely wiped down his table and asked Han Li what he would like to order.
Han Li faintly smiled and ordered a few delicious appetizers, sending the waiter off to deliver his order. However, he did not come here just to satisfy his desire for delicious food.
With that in mind, Han Li turned his gaze outside the window.
The Mo Estate’s huge residence still remained and it still had a burly man standing outside its gates. However, the huge sign on the gate no longer read “Mo Residence” but instead read “Li Residence” in large, golden words.
Looking at the “Li Residence” sign shining under the sunlight, Han Li unconsciously wrinkled his brow.
From what he had heard, the Rainbow Sect Master seemed to be surnamed “Li”. It seems they now occupied their defeated enemy’s nest.
Not knowing why, Han Li felt particularly bothered when he saw the sign saying “Li Residence”. He found the previous “Mo Residence” sign somewhat more pleasing to the eye.
As Han Li was lost in thought, his dishes were brought by the waiter and simultaneously the sounds of banter were heard on the floor below. Several youths wearing embroidered silk clothes walked up the stairs followed by their burly guards; they appeared to be the young masters of a noble family.
Among these young masters was a man so thin he might blow away in the wind. He casually swept his gaze over the floor and impolitely beckoned to the waiter.
The waiter complacently ran over and hastily said with an enchanting smile, “Young Master Xia, do you have any instructions?”
“Call for the shopkeeper. Today, we’re inviting an esteemed guest to dine with us. Have everyone on the third floor leave. We will pay for the damages.” This skinny man spoke quite arrogantly.
The waiter didn’t reveal the slightest bit of dissatisfaction, repeatedly nodding his head, before hurrying off to inform the shopkeeper.
After a short moment, a forty year old man arrived. Once he saw the thin man, he immediately agreed to his request with a smile. He then brought the waiter to the third floor to apologize to the customers who were already there.
It was unknown whether this shopkeeper was naturally so quick and efficient or whether this young master had a truly great background.
Not long after, all of the customers on the third floor had paid their bills and left. Not a single one of them had dared to complain.
Han Li lazily looked over before he returned his gaze to the bustling streets outside the window.
The newcomer was only a young master among mortals, an arrogant person only relying on the might of his clan, commonly found at all places. Han Li had absolutely no interest in him.
At that moment, the youth in charge, Young Master Xia, then nodded with satisfaction and descended to the ground floor.
Later, the sound of footsteps came up from below. This time, Han Li was startled and couldn’t help but turn his head around and stare.
This was because among those heavy footsteps, feather-light footsteps could be faintly discerned. Only a Jianghu martial artist who practiced qinggong to a certain stage would be able to display such control.
This greatly piqued Han Li’s curiosity.
Chapter 333: Gang Leader Sun
A refined and cultured youth was escorted by the young masters to the second floor.
The thirty-year-old youth had a dashing appearance. From seeing his faint smile, one would have received a greatly favorable impression of him as if they had felt a spring wind. Those near silent footsteps came from him.
The youth and the young masters were bantering with one another as they swept their gazes across the second floor.
As Han Li’s common appearance did not catch their attention, they headed up to the third floor. It seemed that this youth was the so called “Esteemed Guest”.
Just as they arrived to the third floor, a stream of servants carrying fine delicacies followed. Afterward the food was delivered, the servants and guards descended. It seems they didn’t want others to hear their conversation.
Having seen this, Han Li’s interest was piqued, and he secretly extended his spiritual sense upstairs, allowing him to clearly hear their conversation.
“Senior Brother Li, it is fortunate that you’ve come or else we would’ve suffered a terrible fate! You’ve given us face by agreeing to come here. Come, let us drink a cup in honor of Brother Li!” The thin youth’s voice was filled with appreciation.
“It’s nothing. Those outsiders dared to seize someone underneath the eyes of our Rainbow Sect. Thus, they were violating our sect’s laws and I only did what should’ve been done.” The dashing youth courteously said; he appeared quite modest and friendly.
Hearing the words “Rainbow Sect” and “Senior Brother Li”, Han Li revealed slight amazement.
‘Could there be such a coincidence? I happened to run across someone related to the Rainbow Sect already!’
Han Li was stunned.
“Regardless of how it is said, we would’ve encountered great danger were it not for you. In the future, if Senior Brother Li requires any assistance, we will do our best.” A different young master said this as he patted his chest.
“Many thanks for these Brothers’ kind intentions! However, the person who attempted to kidnap you all must be a renowned character in Jianghu. Otherwise, he definitely wouldn’t have dared to act in a place like Jia Yuan City.” The dashing youth changed the subject.
“That’s right. Those kidnappers were quite ferocious. I had been sleeping in my bed but when I opened my eyes, I was already at another place. At that moment, I was truly scared. Fortunately, our elders managed to find your esteemed father. Otherwise, we would have suffered greatly!” The thin youth said, horrified of what might have happened.
“In fact, Sir Wang and the others actually didn’t find...” The youth surnamed Li and the others continued to chat.
