Mortals, and even my disciple Han Li, don't mess with me!

"Master, could we postpone this matter until after the dual cultivation ceremony?"

Han Li then made another request.

Compared to other things, Han Li cared more about this matter.

So many years have passed, and he naturally wants to complete the dual cultivation ceremony with Nangong Wan as soon as possible, not wanting anything to happen in the middle.

"Of course, this matter will indeed have to wait until after your dual cultivation ceremony. Besides this, you also need to do something else. Moreover, this matter is of great importance and cannot afford any mistakes. I wouldn't trust anyone else to do it; only you and I can truly trust each other."

As Wu Yun finished speaking, his expression became quite solemn.

"Master, please speak!"

Upon hearing this, Han Li knew that Wu Yun was definitely up to no good, but he had no choice but to speak up.

"Do you remember the Fallen Demon Valley I mentioned to you on the way here?"

In response to Han Li's question, Wu Yun asked a question in return.

"Of course I remember. Could it be that Master intends for me to travel to this most dangerous place in the south?"

Han Li felt a chill run down his spine and couldn't help but ask further.

This matter is far too dangerous; if anything goes wrong, it will be disastrous.

Moreover, he had only just condensed his Nascent Soul, and in terms of supernatural abilities and other aspects, he was still somewhat inferior to other Nascent Soul cultivators.

"Of course not. I just want you to go to the Ghost Spirit Sect again to gather some information. I killed the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect a while ago, and I also massacred their branch sect in the Taiyue Mountains of Yue Kingdom. It is because of this that I learned about a major event in their Ghost Spirit Sect."

"For years, the Ghost Spirit Sect has been plotting against what lies within the Fallen Demon Valley. They've already reaped considerable rewards. What I'm asking you to do now is infiltrate the Ghost Spirit Sect and gather information. Don't worry, there are people within the Ghost Spirit Sect who can provide backup. You won't be easily exposed. You just need to find out how far their plans have progressed and bring the information back. This matter is of great importance, so there can be no mistakes."

"Don't be so quick to refuse, let me finish what I have to say first."

Before Han Li could refuse, Wu Yun added another sentence.

"There are many treasures and spiritual herbs in the Fallen Demon Valley. Among them is a spiritual herb called the Spirit Candle Fruit. This heaven and earth spiritual fruit can be used to refine a pill called the Creation Pill. It's the same pill I mentioned to you on the way. After taking it, you can sense the bottleneck of the next realm in advance. This heaven and earth spiritual herb is very beneficial for breaking through bottlenecks."

"Besides these pills, there is also a medicinal garden left behind by ancient cultivators—called the Spirit Garden. This is no ordinary medicinal garden; it is planted with a large number of rare and precious medicinal herbs left over from ancient times, each of which is a rare and precious herb in the world. If one can refine them into pills and consume them, one's cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds."

"What we need to do is find a way to enter the Fallen Demon Valley to find the Spirit Candle Fruit, and also the Spirit Misty Garden."

"But the first thing to do is to infiltrate the Ghost Spirit Sect and see how far their plans have progressed."

"But I don't really trust anyone else besides you about this, so I can only entrust it to you. I also have other things to do and don't have enough time to do it myself."

"Of course, if you are completely unwilling, I will not force you. However, don't blame me for not telling you about this opportunity. If you don't get it, then don't blame me. If you do get it, then you can break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm in at most a hundred years. Do you know what this means?"

Wu Yun asked one more question at the end.

Upon hearing this, Han Li shook his head, suppressing his excitement, and said nothing.

"Looking at the entire Tiannan cultivation world, there are only a handful of cultivators who have just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and then advanced to the mid-Nascent Soul stage within a hundred years. Among these cultivators, the weakest are all late-Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and there are even some Nascent Soul stage cultivators."

"So you absolutely must get it. If you refuse, I'll have to send someone else. Don't blame me for not giving you a chance then."

After saying that, Wu Yun handed the prescription for the Creation Pill to Han Li.

Han Li immediately took it and began to examine it.

Only after confirming that everything was correct did I feel completely relieved.

"This disciple can agree. However, could you please not tell Wan'er about this yet? This disciple is worried that she might be concerned."

Han Li also stated his condition: do not tell Nangong Wan.

This matter is far too dangerous; one wrong move and you could die without a burial place.

Even Han Li wasn't entirely confident he could escape unscathed.

After all, that's the Ghost Spirit Sect, not an ordinary place.

"Of course! I certainly won't tell her easily. You can rest assured."

"If there were other better candidates, I wouldn't have asked you for help. But if we succeed, the benefits you'll receive will far exceed your imagination. You should know that the Ghost Spirit Sect has been plotting against the Fallen Demon Valley for over a hundred years. If we can enter it and get what they want, the benefits will be far greater than you can imagine."

Wu Yun then spoke up to comfort him.

Apart from Han Li, there is no one else suitable for this matter.

Therefore, Wu Yun could only try to fool Han Li.

Moreover, this isn't really a lie; it's the truth.

The contact person arranged by his Ghost Spirit Sect was Yan Ruyan.

This woman has now returned to the Ghost Spirit Sect. If it were anyone else, they would certainly be subject to soul searching, but Yan Ruyan is different.

The Yan family has not been idle in the Ghost Spirit Sect for so many years.

Protecting their family's eldest daughter is no problem at all.

Even though the Wang family is in charge of the Ghost Spirit Sect, the Yan family is not someone to be trifled with.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible for it to replace it later.

Although it was largely due to the Wang family's self-destructive actions, it is enough to prove that the Yan family was ambitious to begin with.

It was precisely because of the Yan family's ambition that Wu Yun let Yan Ruyan go at that time.

Although he could also obtain the Ghost Spirit Sect's plan from Yan Ruyan.

However, just in case, he decided to send Han Li on the trip.

He simply couldn't trust anyone else.

If I had to say that I have someone I can trust, it would be that I lack the ability to do so; the most crucial thing is ability.

Without sufficient strength, it's simply sending the opponent to their death.

Han Li is the only one who has both sufficient strength and ability.

It's worth the risk.

Although following the storyline can largely help you obtain the items found in the Fallen Demon Valley.

But Wu Yun wanted more.
