Wu Shattered Star River

The Sect Master of Bu has arrived.

But he was too late. The only survivor was killed by Fu Dao.

This survivor might not have been particularly important, but he could have been soul-searched and used as a witness to prove that the Heavenly Dao Gate launched a surprise attack, allowing them to legitimately cause trouble for the Heavenly Dao Gate.

After the Sect Master of Bu flew over, he saw the chaotic battlefield, the group of young masters and ladies who were still in shock, and the murderous Fu Dao. He sighed helplessly.

He asked a few questions, and several Saint Sovereigns hurriedly reported the information truthfully.

"Elder Jiang is good!"

The Sect Master of Bu turned his gaze to Jiang Han and praised, "This time, your handling was very correct, and your combat power is very strong. You were actually able to withstand a Dao Ancestor Realm seventh level for so long and successfully protect Lan Mei and the others. I will report this matter truthfully and request merit for you!"

Jiang Han was not complacent because of the Sect Master of Bu's praise. He very humbly cupped his hands and said, "This subordinate only did what I should have done. There is no merit. On the contrary, many disciples died this time because this subordinate failed to protect them effectively."

Jiang Han's humility aroused the admiration of many young masters and ladies and disciples.

If it weren't for Jiang Han this time, no one knows how many would have died. Many young masters and ladies would have either been killed or captured alive, and there would definitely have been no good outcome.

The Sect Master of Bu didn't say much. He collected the corpse that had been chopped into pieces by Fu Dao.

He didn't say anything to Fu Dao, but instead ordered, "Clean up the battlefield, collect the corpses, board the warship, and go to the White Ridge Mountains!"

A group of disciples busied themselves, cleaned up the battlefield, boarded the warship, and continued to fly towards the White Ridge Mountains in a mighty manner.

This time it was very smooth. After flying for a day, they arrived at the periphery of the White Ridge Mountains.

There is an independent mountain peak here. A huge city, White Ridge City, has been built on the top of the mountain. This is the base camp of the Grand Righteous Path for resisting the Heavenly Dao Gate.

This mountain peak is extremely steep, like a sharp blade piercing into the clouds. The city is above the clouds, looking like a city in the sky.

The city is a full hundred miles in circumference and can accommodate tens of millions of cultivators.

There are hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here all year round, as well as some logistics personnel and some merchants, so the city is very lively.

The north side of the city is where the army is stationed, and the south city is the commercial district. This city has a powerful city protection formation, which is difficult to break through, so the people in the city don't worry about safety at all.

The arrival of Jiang Han and the others made the city a lot more lively.

The main reason is that many young masters and ladies have come this time, all of whom are descendants of the high-level members of the sect. There are many middle-level members of the sect in White Ridge City, and they naturally want to curry favor with these young masters and ladies.

Jiang Han was assigned a small manor. Normally, he would not have this treatment and could only live in an ordinary palace. This time, it was because he had made great contributions that the Sect Master of Bu specially arranged it for him.

Jiang Han had no interest in war or socializing. He came here entirely to complete his mission and wait for Mo Xie to return.

So that night, the Sect Master of Bu held a banquet, and Jiang Han directly refused on the grounds that he needed to recuperate.

He didn't have any injuries, he just lost some life essence. He just didn't want to attend such a boring banquet, and he didn't want to have too much contact with that group of young masters and ladies.

Past experience told him that getting too close to young masters and ladies can easily lead to problems, especially disputes, which can then lead to big trouble.

He secluded himself in the manor to heal his injuries. In the middle of the night, footsteps actually sounded outside.

There were maids and servants in the manor. A servant came in to report, "Reporting to Elder Jiang, Miss Lan Mei, Miss Xian Yun, and Miss Rui Yu have come to pay their respects."

"…"

Jiang Han had a headache. He didn't want to cause trouble, but trouble still came to his door.

However, Lan Mei was not reckless this time and called on two other ladies. If it was just Lan Mei alone, Jiang Han would definitely not see her, as it would easily spread rumors.

Jiang Han asked the servant to invite the three ladies in. The three ladies had obviously just attended the banquet and must have drunk a lot, their faces flushed and delicate.

"Greetings, Elder Jiang!"

After the three entered, they bowed to Jiang Han. Jiang Han nodded with a calm expression and said, "Please sit down, ladies. Is there anything important that you need to see me about so late?"

Jiang Han's tone was calm, and he even used the words "This Seat," which was deliberately distancing himself from Lan Mei and the others.

Lan Mei didn't care. Instead, she looked at Jiang Han with bright eyes and asked, "Elder Jiang, didn't you attend the banquet tonight? I heard you were recuperating. Is your injury very serious? Do you need any spiritual medicine? I have a lot here."

After saying that, Lan Mei's spatial ring flashed, and she took out a lot of top-grade spiritual medicines, with a concerned look on her face.

Jiang Han smiled wryly and said, "I'm just a little affected by life essence. I'll be fine after a period of recuperation. These spiritual medicines are too precious and not needed. Thank you for your kindness, Miss Lan. Please put them away."

"Life essence?"

Lan Mei's spatial ring flashed again, and she took out a pill bottle. She placed the bottle on the table to Jiang Han's left and said, "This is the Snow Essence Pill, which is very helpful for replenishing life essence. Elder Jiang, please refine some quickly."

Jiang Han smiled bitterly. The two ladies next to him immediately followed suit and persuaded him.

One lady said, "Elder Jiang, please accept it. If it weren't for you this time, we would have suffered disaster. You have a life-saving grace for us. This is just a little bit of our small intention."

Another lady said, "Yes, Elder Jiang. If you don't even accept this little pill, then you look down on us and look down on Sister Lan Mei. You didn't come tonight, and Sister Lan Mei was restless all night…"

"Oh my!"

Lan Mei felt that something was wrong after hearing this and quickly stopped her, saying, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Jiang Han was not moved by this sentence, but rather had a headache.

Whether Lan Mei was grateful to him or had a little affection for him, it was not a good thing for him. He didn't want to cause trouble.

Lan Mei, this top-grade seductress, is trouble in herself!

So Jiang Han was silent for a moment, put away the pill, and then turned his gaze to Lan Mei and said, "Miss Lan Mei, as the team leader, I have the right and obligation to protect you. So you don't have to keep this matter in mind, and… I don't want you to keep it in mind."

"I am a relatively solitary person and don't like to be disturbed. Please come to me less often in the future. I hope you can understand!"

Jiang Han's words were very clear. He didn't want Lan Mei to come to him in the future, and he didn't want Lan Mei to pester him!

Lan Mei understood immediately. Her expression became dim, and the other two ladies looked a little strange, wanting to say something, but in the end, they said nothing.

Lan Mei lowered her head for a moment, got up and said, "I understand, Elder Jiang. I'm sorry to bother you. Also… thank you again for saving my life!"

After saying that, Lan Mei bowed deeply, turned around and walked outside. The other two ladies followed suit, glanced at Jiang Han, and then walked out of the palace together.

"Alas…"

Jiang Han sighed slightly, rubbed his brow, and had a headache.

His words today were intentionally heavy, but he couldn't help but be heavy.

The Land of Bitter Winter may suffer disaster at any time, so how could he possibly be romantic in the Land of the Gods and cause a lot of trouble?
