Chapter 563 Visitor

Yan Manor.

Ye Hongjian and the others gathered outside Xu Han's courtyard, their faces filled with worry. Even Aowu and Xuan'er seemed to have sensed something strange. The two little fellows lowered their heads and lay on the ground, losing their usual spirits.

Ever since Luo Mo, Xu Han had locked himself up in another courtyard. No one was allowed to enter, not even Ye Hongjian.

Three days had passed in this blink of an eye. Xu Han hadn't appeared. On the contrary, Xu Han's painful groan came from time to time from the courtyard. He was like a beast that had been forced into desperation, roaring and howling.

How could everyone rest assured?

They took turns to guard the courtyard every day, in case Xu Han had a chance. Until night fell, the painful cries in Xu Han's courtyard suddenly stopped.

Everyone thought that Xu Han could finally get out of seclusion, so they arrived outside the courtyard at the same time. However, although the sounds in the courtyard stopped, Xu Han never appeared.

Thinking about Xu Han's explanation before entering the seclusion, and worrying that there was no sound in the courtyard at this moment, if something unexpected had happened to him, everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

…

"Hu!"

"Hu!"

"Hu!"

Inside the courtyard, Xu Han, who was naked, gasped heavily. His robust body was covered with traces of sweat that seemed to have been soaked in a heavy rain. He bent his body and his eyes were filled with bitterness.

After repelling Luo Mo that day, Xu Han returned to his courtyard and hurriedly explained to everyone before closing the door to death.

In the past few days, the matter of Xu Han using his Heavenly Hunt Realm cultivation to defeat an immortal had spread to the entire Hengroyal City and even the Grand Xia, from the Imperial Court to Jianghu. Others naturally felt that this was unbelievable, and they also sighed with admiration at Xu Han's innate talent that was almost monstrous.

However, Xu Han was dumb enough to eat Coptis chinensis and couldn't say anything about the bitterness.

Immortal was the most powerful group of people in the world. Even if he mastered the Great Defying Sword Scripture, defeating Luo Mo would be an unimaginable risk for him.

There were gains and losses. The Great Defying Sword Scripture gave cultivators the ability to absorb that terrifying devil energy. However, that devil energy clearly contained something strange. He could invisibly seduce people's minds. Whether it was Sikong Bai in the past or Luo Mo in the present, it was the best example.

The demonic energy landed in his body. If it didn't dissipate in a short period of time, the true owner of the demonic energy would probably control Xu Han with it. Of course, this was not something Xu Han wanted to see. Therefore, after dealing with Luo Mo, he immediately returned to his own courtyard and started to deal with this matter.

This was something that he had already thought of before he used the Great Defying Sword Scripture.

Xu Han, who had witnessed the battle in Chang'an through the Blood Yuan uprising, realized that this devil energy was an extremely high-level power, similar to the Blood Yuan that Xing Tian Sword had left in his body. This could replace the consumed Blood Yuan and continue to be used to collide with the starlight, producing a kind of power that could temper Xu Han's body.

In fact, Xu Han's plan was very successful. Although the devil energy was more violent and uneasy than the blood essence, and Xu Han had also suffered a great deal during the process of tempering, he still managed to completely digest the devil energy through collision with the power of starlight, turning it into nutrients for tempering his body.

It was worth mentioning that the starlight left in his body by the spy seemed to be a higher level thing than the blood essence and demonic energy contained in the Heavenly Punishment Sword. After consuming both of them, the starlight energy was still not depleted in the slightest.

Xu Han, who had spent three whole days refining all the demonic energy, did not have the slightest intention of becoming happy. At this moment, his eyebrows were tightly knitted, and it was obvious that he was in an extremely unhappy mood.

He knew very well, He had absorbed almost half of Luo Mo's demonic energy, In order to ensure that he had enough Demonic Qi, he even let go of Luo Mo, who was at the end of his rope. Even if such a move was suspected of letting the tiger return to the mountain, once the true owner of the Demonic Qi realized that Xu Han had mastered the Great Defying Sword Scripture, the next time Luo Mo or anyone else appeared, they would definitely not be affected by the Great Defying Sword Scripture.

However, in order to preserve the demonic energy as much as possible, Xu Han allowed Luo Mo to leave. He knew that the problem he faced was far from being solved by killing a single Luo Mo. It was his duty to make himself strong enough to contend against those enemies.

Even though half of the power in an immortal's body made Xu Han's physical body several times stronger, he was still far from reaching the Immortal Realm. He was even slightly lacking in the half-step Immortal Realm.

Xu Han finally understood how dangerous the path to becoming a saint was. He also understood that in the Great Dragon Elephant Seal, the generations of ancestors had put all their effort into it, but it was still difficult for them to see through the path. It was not that Xu Han did not understand the principle that one could not rush to quick success and instant benefit in cultivation. However, Xie Min Yu was still eyeing him covetously. The sudden resurrection of the Headmaster also harbored ill intentions towards him. He had no choice but to think of all possible ways. He even took risks to raise his cultivation so that others could protect him and those he wanted to protect before the danger arrived.

Thinking of this, Xu Han shook his head and shook off the boredom in his heart. He found a towel and a basin of water to wash away all the wet sweat stains on his body. He changed his clothes and pushed open the courtyard door that he hadn't walked out of for three days.

However, at this moment, he was slightly stunned by the scene that appeared in front of him.

Ye Hongjian, Fang Ziyu, Chu Chouli, Yan Zhan, Xue Ning, Su Mu'an , Xiao Shijiu, and even Aowu and Xuan'er looked at Xu Han who appeared at the door with nine pairs of eyes and eighteen eyeballs. The joy and worry between his eyebrows were overflowing with words. Xu Han quickly regained his senses. He knew that everyone must be secretly worried about him in the past three days.

He smiled faintly at them and said, "I've made everyone worried. I'm fine."

Most likely, the warmth of this smile had also infected everyone. At that time, a faint smile appeared on everyone's faces. Even Aowu and Xuan'er's eyebrows curved up at that time.

However, this warmth did not last long, and a rough voice broke the atmosphere.

"Boy Xu! You're finally out!" A well-rounded middle-aged man walked over from not far away and shouted loudly at Xu Han.

Xu Han fixed his gaze on the unconscious Xiao Ran .

At this moment, the pavilion master's face was still a little pale, as if he hadn't recovered from his previous injuries.

"Lord Pavilion Master is not recovering from his injuries in the manor. Why are you in such a hurry to find me?" Xu Han frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"No." Xiao Ran shook his head. "He's the one who's looking for you."

After saying that, he retreated to the side, and a figure appeared behind Xiao Ran 's fat body.

When he saw that person's appearance, Xu Han's expression changed and his pupils suddenly dilated.
