Zhang Qingshan looked intently at Ye Han and said, "Don't worry! I'm not going anywhere dangerous this time. I'm about to enter the Ancient Spirit Cave on Qing Xuan Peak to cultivate."
He could see how worried Ye Han was about him. After a pause, he explained, "Didn't you just mention the great merit I earned in the Darkness Forbidden Ground? I performed very well this time and secured plenty of cultivation resources for the sect. As a reward, the sect has allowed me to cultivate in the Ancient Spirit Cave for a year. I'll be going in shortly. I might even advance to the Foundation Establishment Realm in there."
As he spoke, he took a Storage Bag from inside his robe and handed it to Ye Han. "Your cultivation is improving very quickly. These things should be useful to you. Some are treasures I obtained in the Darkness Forbidden Ground, and the rest are rewards from the sect. Just take them."
Ye Han had not expected Zhang Qingshan to seek him out and give him cultivation resources the moment he returned. It seemed he truly regarded Ye Han as a close brother.
But Ye Han did not accept it. He declined, saying, "Senior Brother Zhang, keep these for yourself. Your injuries look troublesome. You'd be better off using these things to cultivate and recover! As for me, don't worry. I've had quite a few fortunate encounters lately. I'm not short on cultivation resources!"
Hearing this, Zhang Qingshan looked Ye Han up and down. "All right. Your cultivation has improved so quickly, and there's a faint Treasure Light about you. It seems you really have had some good opportunities lately. I'll save these until you need them."
The speaker meant nothing by it, but the listener took it to heart.
