Chapter 513 There Are Many

Xu Han murmured to himself, unable to conceal it from Ye Hongjian's ears.

The woman turned to look at Xu Han and asked doubtfully, "Devour? What do you mean?"

Hearing this, Xu Han regained his senses and was about to say something when two figures suddenly descended from afar.

"Xu Han! What are you doing?" One of the figures came to Xu Han's side and angrily scolded him.

There was no need to think too much. This person was naturally the other seven-stringed golden robe of the Sword Handling Pavilion, Nangong Jing.

The commotion caused by Xu Han in the Crossing Imperial City was truly too big. The Mirror Division's Mirror Marquis called Cao Mian had brought a large number of people to the Sword Handling Pavilion early in the morning to ask Nangong Jing for his guilt.

Nangong Jing knew that he was in the wrong, so he could only apologize. However, he couldn't help but hold back his resentment. Now that he found Xu Han, he naturally had to vent his anger on this person who had caused everything.

Xu Han, whose conversation with Ye Hongjian was interrupted, did not show the slightest bit of anger. He winked at Nangong Jing and said with a puzzled expression, "Capture the monster on the orders of the Pavilion Master."

Most likely, it was because Xu Han's pretentious appearance was too hateful, or because some Nangong Jing himself could not explain the reason behind it, but the usually calm rage in the heart of the Seven-Line Golden Robe was rubbing against it. She stared at Xu Han and said through gritted teeth, "As for catching monsters, is there such a big battle? Since we found them, why didn't we capture them quickly and instead let her run around the Royal City? If something bad happens and hurt the people, where should our Sword Handling Pavilion be placed?"

Xu Han could probably laugh off such words, but Ye Hongjian, who was beside him, was not an easy person. She had always protected Xu Han's matters, so how could she allow Nangong Jing to provoke him like this?

At this moment, Ye Hongjian raised her eyebrows and stood in front of Xu Han. She had the posture of a hen protecting a calf.

"Mirror division is also good, your nangong adult also, how long have you captured this monster? Have you ever seen the other party's appearance? My husband forced it out as soon as he made his move. I'm afraid Lord Nangong wouldn't dare to imagine such an efficiency, right? Moreover, this monster is already under our surveillance. Although there has been panic along the way, not a single person has been injured. "I don't know where Lord Nangong's anger came from?" Ye Hongjian's long speech caused Nangong Jing's face to turn ashen, but she couldn't find the slightest room to refute it.

She stared at Ye Hongjian for a long time with a gloomy expression, and finally said, "Even so, it's not good to disturb the people like this."

However, before he could finish his rebuttal, he was interrupted by Ye Hongjian again, "It's better than Lord Nangong and the Mirror Division can only wait for the rabbit. They can only arrive late after the monster kills them, right?"

"You!" Hearing this, Nangong Jing's eyebrows immediately surged with killing intent. She stepped forward as if she was about to make a move. At that moment, her aura as a Great Evolution Realm cultivator also surged out of her body.

However, in the face of such an aggressive Nangong Jingye Hongjian, she did not have the slightest bit of fear. Her eyes narrowed and her red robe surged. The aura surging out of her body was no less than Nangong Jingye Hongjian's.

"Alright, alright." At this time, Nangong Zhuo, who was behind Nangong Jing, saw that the situation was not good and quickly pulled the two of them together. He laughed and said, "Everyone is here to capture the monster. Since we found the monster, we should join hands to fight the enemy. After all, everyone is from the Sword Handling Pavilion, so don't hurt our peace for trivial matters."

As Nangong Zhuo spoke, he didn't forget to wink at Xu Han. Finally, he reached out his hand and hid it under his sleeve, giving Xu Han a cautious thumbs-up. After all, Nangong Zhuo had only seen Xu Han who could make his sister so angry for so many years.

Xu Han looked at all of this and secretly felt that it was funny, but he didn't say anything else.

Fortunately, although Nangong Jing intentionally targeted Xu Han in many matters, she was still able to recognize him roughly. After glaring fiercely at Xu Han and Ye Hongjian, she withdrew her gaze.

"Tell me, what do you plan to do?" She asked with a heavy brow.

Although Nangong Jing's tone was still unkind, since the other party had given in, there was no need for Xu Han to continue pestering her. He pulled Ye Hongjian in front of him, and Ye Hongjian understood Xu Han's thoughts. She retreated behind Xu Han, looking obedient, as if she was a completely different person from her previous self-restrained voice.

Nangong Jing saw this and frowned slightly.

Xu Han naturally did not notice the slight change on Nangong Jing's face. He calmly pointed at the half-demon that was still rampaging through the streets of Crossing Imperial City and said, "This thing is extremely powerful, and there are still some unknown changes happening on its body. If we start a war in the city, we will inevitably injure the innocent. Therefore, we intend to wait until he escapes before engaging in a battle with it, but …"

Saying this, Xu Han hesitated slightly.

"If you have something to say, just say it. What's the difference between being coy and being a woman?" Nangong Jing seemed to intentionally oppose Xu Han, and after only a breath or two of hesitation, he attracted her ridicule.

Xu Han was accustomed to Nangong Jing's behavior. He smiled slightly and didn't take it to heart. Then, he told Nangong Jing all of his previous speculations.

Hearing this, Nangong Jing said, He frowned deeply. She sensed the aura of the half-demon. Indeed, she smelled a dangerous scent. She nodded and agreed with Xu Han and the others' plan. However, there were still some questions in her heart, "But why did she have to go to Long Yin Temple? Is there an immortal guarding that place? If she went elsewhere, it would be interesting to escape from the possibility of ascending to heaven. Doesn't going there amount to sending her to her death?"

However, Xu Han could only helplessly shrug his shoulders and say, "Only she knows about this."

…

As one of the oldest sects in the world, Long Yin Temple naturally had its own special features.

However, Xu Han never imagined that this sect, or some of the people in the sect, would actually have the ability to predict things.

According to the previous situation, the Longyin Temple was supposed to be filled with incense and pilgrims traveling endlessly. In order to minimize the casualties, Xu Han had already communicated with the officers in charge of the city defense and had them send troops to evacuate the crowd. However, the officers quickly sent news that the Longyin Temple was closed today. There were no pilgrims in the mountain gate.

After all, apart from the swordsman competition that took place every five years, there had never been such a thing as a closed temple in Long Yin Temple for so many years. Xu Han naturally had reason to believe that the great figures in Long Yin Temple seemed to have predicted what would happen today. Moreover, this monster caused such a big commotion in the Royal City. The immortals in the Royal City also tacitly understood that not a single person had come forward to stop it. Many coincidences were linked together. Xu Han thought that there might be some tricks that he did not know about.

Very quickly, the half-demon rushed out of the bustling streets of Heng Imperial City and charged straight into the mountain gate of Long Yin Temple.

The moment the half-demon stepped into the mountain gate, a golden Buddhist light that looked like a blazing sun suddenly lit up in the Longyin Temple. The light was dazzling, accompanied by bursts of Buddhist singing that resounded throughout the mountain peak.

Under the illumination of the Buddha's light, The half-demon immediately let out a series of painful howls, The people following behind her could clearly see that the golden Buddhist light landed on the half-demon's body. The purple scales on her body continuously rose into white mist, like charred tree branches. There was even some purple blood that could not help but seep into her skin.

Her already ferocious appearance was even more terrifying at this moment.

However, even so, the half-demon still didn't stop her footsteps. Her mouth couldn't stop wailing, but her footsteps were unwavering as she steadily climbed the stairs of the Dragon Hidden Mountain. The fresh blood that flowed out from all over her body also fell to the ground along with her footsteps.

When this situation fell into the eyes of the crowd, their expressions couldn't help but change.

This half-demon's behavior was truly too strange. If she continued to walk like this, everyone would not even need to make a move, and she would be burned to death by the Buddhist light that filled the sky. Naturally, they couldn't understand why this Half Demon had done such a thing.

"What exactly is she going to do? If this continues, she will die." Su Mu'an was a child after all. Seeing the tragic situation of this half-demon, she quickly forgot the hostile stance between the two sides and asked with a puzzled and worried expression.

"She wants to do something very important before she dies." Xu Han replied with a calm brow.

The expression on Su Mu'an 's face became even more confused at that time. He was puzzled, "But if she didn't come here, wouldn't she have to die?"

Hearing this, Xu Han burst into laughter. The "death" in his mouth and Su Mu'an's so-called "death" were actually two different things. However, he did not explain the difference to Su Mu'an in detail. After all, that was too heavy for the little fellow.

He looked at the half-demon that was staggering up, walking slowly, but his gaze was filled with determination. His heart sank. At that time, he reached out and gently caressed Su Mu'an 's head. He sighed, "There are some things that are more important to some people than their lives. You don't have to feel sad about it, because in their eyes, paying any price for those things is worth it."

Su Mu'an was confused. He also looked at the half-demon before turning to look at Xu Han beside him and asking again, "Just like Master and Mo Jianxian?"

In the bottom of the little fellow's heart, he had always felt guilty about Yuan Guilong and Mo Chen Zi's death that year. He was both guilty of watching from the sidelines and doubtful about their persistence.

Hearing this, Xu Han was stunned. He turned to look at the boy beside him. When his gaze met his gaze, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Then, he nodded and said.

"Yes, it's the same."

"You may not understand it now, but one day, when you find something like that, you will discover that it is actually a very happy thing."

"Then does Lord Manor Master have such a thing?"

"Um… I didn't…"

"What about now?"

Xu Han turned his head to look at the people beside him, and the smile on his lips grew a little heavier at that time.

He touched the little fellow's head again and whispered, "Now, there are a lot of them."
