The two women gazed at Han Li with icy eyes that wished to kill, longing to carve up the man who had taken liberties with them; however, they were trapped in Han Li’s snare and their futures were uncertain.

He kept sizing up Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi.

Without realizing it, their bottom lines were lowered, as they kept conceding, the upper hand was not in their grasp.

In his heart, Han Li quietly sighed; he really had no intention of doing anything more and had made his choice.

Now he only wished to feast his eyes, for he wouldn’t have the chance to see such a sight again for quite some time, so he wanted to look his fill in one go.

His purpose in capturing Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi was to resolve the troubles with the Body-Cultivating Furnace; taking advantage of the two women would only bring greater troubles.

Ensnared in one problem after another, he wouldn’t be able to properly cultivate; he wasn’t like those geniuses who could grow rapidly through trials. What he needed was time to develop steadily and securely.

He silently repeated the Ten Principles Practice several times in his mind, then recited the sixteen-word mantra again, and Han Li approached Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi once more.

As Han Li drew nearer, Yun Miaoyi, who was fixed in an embarrassing position, couldn’t hold back any longer and said in panic, “Han Li, what on earth do you plan to do?”

“Han Li, don’t mess around, let’s talk this out properly,” said someone.

In such a position, even Jiang Baiye couldn’t maintain her frosty demeanor her pretty face flushed with embarrassment.

“Do what?”

Han Li’s eyebrows arched suddenly, a hint of wicked pleasure surfacing as he chuckled heinously, “I want you to aid my cultivation.”

Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye’s expressions changed drastically, their blush dying away to cold sternness as they nearly spoke in unison:

“Don’t even think about it!”

Without saying a word, Han Li watched Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi, brazenly scrutinizing them, which greatly infuriated both women.

“So that’s it, this is the secret to your rapid progress in cultivation,” said Yun Miaoyi, a flash of insight in her eyes.

Pretending to have a slight change in expression, Han Li calmly responded, “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

He wanted to set a trap for Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi, making future moves easier, and preferably lead them astray.

“Heh, keep pretending. I was only fifty percent sure before, but now I’m positive, you possess a powerful Dual Cultivation Technique or Collection and Supplement Method. This technique must be at least of Heaven Rank.”

“No wonder you’ve been hiding in little Lingjun City for the past twenty years, taking concubines frequently, yet without the necessary resources, your cultivation has soared, nearly matching the cultivation speed of those Third Grade talent geniuses.”

As Han Li seemed to want to deny it, Yun Miaoyi scoffed coldly, “Don’t forget, I come from the Hehuan Sect.”

It all became clear to Jiang Baiye as well; only that could explain why Han Li took concubines so often without hampering his cultivation, and why his power had increased so dramatically.

Her gaze at Han Li shifted, filled with some trepidation.

Under these circumstances, Jiang Baiye had no confidence that Han Li would let them go.

Watching Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi try to remain composed, Han Li almost wanted to laugh, but he maintained a look of deep furrows on his brow as if Yun Miaoyi had indeed glimpsed his secret.

Without responding to Yun Miaoyi’s guess, Han Li’s expression returned to calmness, continuing to look at the two women without restraint. When he saw them becoming increasingly unnerved, he finally spoke up.

“So you don’t want to engage in Dual Cultivation with me, nor do you want me to release you, is that right?”

Jiang Baiye and Yun Miaoyi hastily nodded; Jiang Baiye’s clear voice rang out, “Just tell us your conditions, as long as it’s within our ability.”

They had had enough of their current humiliating pose and just wanted to get away from Han Li as quickly as possible and reclaim their freedom before planning their next move.

The two women didn’t dare threaten or scare him anymore; not only was it useless against Han Li, but it might also provoke him, leaving them at a disadvantage should he act irrationally.

“Of course, there are conditions, and they’re not difficult for you. As long as you agree to all of them, I’ll release you,” Han Li said with a beaming smile.

“Speak,” Jiang Baiye said expressionlessly.

“Stop dilly-dallying,” Yun Miaoyi urged impatiently, her only wish now was to quickly return to the Yinyang Sect.

After giving the two women a deep look, Han Li said, “First, the matter concerning the Body-Cultivating Furnace ends here. You must not investigate further and must exert every effort to prevent your backers from doing so as well.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Second, our grievances will be wiped clean, from henceforth, we shall not infringe upon each other’s domains. You must not use any means to continue seeking trouble with me, the Han Family, or Tianxuan Mountain.”

“Third, you must keep the details of this great battle hidden, not revealing any information about me.”

“Fourth, you need to swear an oath with your Dao heart that, should you break these terms, you will be troubled by inner demons for the rest of your life, never advancing to the Hollow Void Stage.”

Having spoken, Han Li quietly watched Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye, waiting for their response.

The two women wanted to quickly rid themselves of him, unaware that he too wished to be free of them as soon as possible, setting clear boundaries so each could go their separate ways, with no one troubling the other.

“I agree,” Yun Miaoyi hesitated only briefly before immediately speaking up.

Although it was a great risk to infiltrate the Daqian Empire and she had wasted time and energy without obtaining the Body-Cultivating Furnace, rendering the venture a loss for her, her circumstances had changed and so had her thoughts.

Now, she wasn’t in a position to negotiate terms. As long as Han Li left her body untouched, she could agree to these trivial matters.

Seeing Jiang Baiye hesitating, Han Li said indifferently, ‘Your agreement alone is useless. Both of you must agree for it to count.”

Yun Miaoyi was furious, but helpless, so she could only look toward Jiang Baiye, hoping she would be rational and prioritize her own safety and purity over the Body-Cultivating Furnace.

“I can’t stop my sect from investigating the whereabouts of the Body-Cultivating Furnace.”

After a silence, Jiang Baiye lowered her head, her cool voice sounding somewhat helpless.

Though she was important within the Canghai Sect and one of the strong contenders for future Sect Leader, she still fell short compared to the Body-Cultivating Furnace.

If it came down to choosing between her and the Body-Cultivating Furnace, the Canghai Sect would undoubtedly opt for the Body-Cultivating Furnace without hesitation.

“Jiang Baiye, you…” Yun Miaoyi panicked. If Jiang Baiye didn’t agree, they both would be doomed.

Han Li nodded, acknowledging Jiang Baiye’s statement, and proposed, “How about this? I will keep the Body-Cultivating Furnace for fifty years. If you come for it after fifty years, I will offer it to you with both hands. How about that?”

Jiang Baiye’s head shot up as she stared intently at Han Li, a flicker of surprise in her eyes, “Agreed.”

No matter what Han Li was planning, as long as there was a chance to retrieve the Body-Cultivating Furnace, she could settle matters with her sect and persuade them to temporarily give up the chase.

Yun Miaoyi breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, “Jiang Baiye has agreed too. You can let us go now.”

“You haven’t sworn an oath with your Dao heart yet,” Han Li reminded them.

Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye made pledges with their Dao hearts, making all sorts of promises, and Han Li finally felt at ease.

“We’re good now, right?” The two women were somewhat nervous, afraid that Han Li might pull some trick.

“Not so fast.”

After saying this, Han Li took out a Shadow Leaving Stone from his Space Ring.

“What are you doing?!” Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye watched Han Li intently, their voices ice-cold.

“Nothing much, just preparing a little something for my enjoyment,” Han Li said calmly.

Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye, grinding their teeth in hatred, knew this was Han

Li’s safeguard in case they reneged, and in fact, they did harbor such thoughts.

But now that Han Li had leverage over them, they didn’t dare to take the risk of backlash from their Dao hearts and could only pretend not to see it.

“You’re ruthless,” Yun Miaoyi and Jiang Baiye spat out through clenched teeth.
