A Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Reborn in the Giant Sword Sect - Chapter 322: Shameless beyond Compare
What Xiao Yu did not know was that Han Li had learned of his existence a year earlier, when the Falling Cloud Sect's sect master spread word of Xiao Yu's advancement to the middle stage as instructed.
The sudden news had truly shocked Han Li, leaving him deeply unnerved as well. This fellow haunts me like a ghost that refuses to leave. Why do I run into Xiao Yu wherever I go?
After forcing himself to calm down, Han Li began thinking about Xiao Yu and his own current circumstances.
He remembered meeting Xiao Yu only three times in total, with the man keeping a quiet eye on him on one other occasion. Yet those few interactions had exerted a profound and far-reaching influence on his cultivation journey.
After carefully recalling every detail of those encounters, Han Li reached a startling conclusion.
Whenever Xiao Yu came into contact with him, there were bound to be all manner of benefits and fortuitous opportunities involved!
When they first met at the Heavenly Star Sect's market, the man had most likely been hoodwinking him, after which they traded for the Azure Essence Sword Art. On that occasion, Xiao Yu obtained the method for refining the Green Bamboo Cloud-Bee Sword from him. Judging from what Han Li had learned, the man had undoubtedly refined quite a few life-bound magic treasures, just as he had.
The second time, Xiao Yu had quietly kept an eye on him and anonymously given him the Great Evolution Art. That meant Xiao Yu must have cultivated the Great Evolution Art himself.
The third time was in the Void Sky Hall, when Profound Bone invited him to help capture the nine-curved spirit ginseng.
