Chapter 335: Astonishment
Seeing the cold sweat pouring down Sun Ergouâs face, Han Li knew the time was about right. He relaxed his expression and prepared to offer the other party some benefits.
âAll right, continue to be your Grand Gang Leader Sun from now on. Unless something special happens, I wonât come looking for you. But since we part ways today, I donât know when weâll meet again. So, take this and keep it well. If you have descendants in the future, they can use this to recognize me. As long as your descendants are willing to serve me, I will ensure they live in wealth and honor for their entire lives.â
Han Li said this and took out a piece of ordinary blank talisman paper. With a crisp sound, he tore it in half and handed one half to Sun Ergou, while keeping the other half himself.
Hearing Han Liâs words, Sun Ergou first showed a look of surprise, then his face lit up with joy. Overcome with emotion, he knelt firmly before Han Li and kowtowed three times with a loud sound. Then he looked up very seriously and said,
âThank you for your great kindness, Young Master! Please rest assured, I, Sun Ergou, and all my clan members will serve you as our master from this day forward, never to regret it. Otherwise, we will surely suffer the calamity of entire clans being exterminated.â
After saying this, Sun Ergou kowtowed once more, then respectfully stood up.
Seeing this scene, Han Li was a little stunned!
Although his original intention was to win over Sun Ergou, he hadnât expected that just a promise would move the other party to tears of gratitude to such an extent.
But after a momentâs thought, Han Li understood.
In the mortal world, what people value most is continuing the family line and the rise and fall of powerful clans! And Han Liâs words guaranteed the prosperity and wealth of the Sun family for several generations. Naturally, Sun Ergou sincerely wanted to rely on Han Li.
After all, Han Li hadnât given Sun Ergou any excessive orders over the years, which made him feel that having his descendants continue to serve Han Li was the best choice.
Thinking this through, Han Li felt quite pleased. If Sun Ergou genuinely served him in the future, it would be very different from just doing things perfunctorily.
âGood. Since you truly submit to me today, I will naturally leave you more benefits. Take these two bottles of pills. One cures all internal and external injuries â as long as youâre not dead, it can save a person. The other pill is the antidote I gave you earlier, which cures all poisons in the world. Keep it for your own protection.â
Han Li flicked his hand, and two small, exquisite porcelain bottles appeared in his palm. Then, with a calm expression, he tossed them to Sun Ergou.
Sun Ergou was immensely grateful and felt assured that he had made the right choice!
Then Han Li gave Sun Ergou a few more instructions before departing gracefully from the Siping Gangâs headquarters amid respectful farewell.
This backup plan should be kept for now â who knows when it might be useful again! Han Li thought silently.
Standing on the street outside, he looked up. It was now completely dark, just the right time to head to the Li Mansion.
With a flicker, Han Li mounted his flying device and soared into the sky. In a short while, he was above the Li Mansion.
Under the cover of the dark night, Han Li easily descended from the sky. Then he cast several concealment techniques in succession, silently disappearing into the courtyard of the Li Mansion.
With his previous experience infiltrating Prince Xinâs Mansion, Han Li skillfully used a calming talisman to subdue a skilled âexpertâ and then employed the mind control technique to inquire about the whereabouts of the Sect Master of the Five Colors Sect.
To Han Liâs great joy, the Sect Master was not in the heavily guarded rear residence but had gone to a side courtyard where his second son lived, seemingly to discuss something.
After learning the location of the side courtyard, Han Li coldly cast a fireball and reduced it to ashes.
