It was just noon.

Han Zhao received a message from the martial artist in the sect.

The Ji family had arrived.

Han Zhao personally led the gang to the docks of the Furious Flood Dragon Island to welcome them.

In just the time for an incense stick to burn, a passenger ship with the word “Ji” embroidered on the sail slowly sailed over and finally stopped at the dock.

A tall girl walked down first. She was wearing a light green silk embroidered dress. Her fair face was filled with joy and anger. Under her long eyelashes, her eyes seemed to be filled with water vapor. She was exceptionally alluring. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly with an unconcealable smile.

[Ji Baiwei—Highly condensed Yin energy. Binding Force has evolved into the

Indestructible Black Snake, second-level Snake-level. She has grasped the fragment of a Grade 3 divine weapon and the power of the seven emotions. Her strength is comparable to a Three Fiend Realm Martial Saint. She has great kindness towards you.]

Han Zhao focused his gaze and saw a system notification appear.

“The Five Great Surnames and the Ten Great Families are really exaggerated!” Han Zhao sighed.

After not seeing her for more than five years, Ji Baiwei had already grown from a Ioli who was more than 1.5 meters tall to a tall and beautiful woman who was more than 1.7 meters tall.

Most importantly, her strength had changed.

When Han Zhao first met her, her bloodline had yet to awaken. She could not even defeat him at the Blood Tempering realm.

Now that she had already obtained the recognition of the Seven Evil Mask

Fragment, the power of her bloodline had appeared.

The simulation showed that she had just broken through to the Snake-level. At this moment, she had directly crossed the first level and stepped into the second level.

It had to be said that the bloodline power really had an incomparable advantage in the early stages.

The only thing that had not changed was her impression of Han Zhao.

After Ji Baiwei got off the ship, a woman in her thirties followed closely behind. She was wearing a purple dress, her skin was fair, and she was beautiful, but her expression was very stiff.

It was Ji Zhuling.

[Ji Zhuling—Highly condensed Yin energy. Binding Force has evolved to the Indestructible Black Snake, second-level Snake-level. She has mastered a complete pseudo-divine weapon, and is a middle-grade Pseudo-Divine

Weapon Master. Her strength has surpassed that of a Three Fiend Realm

Martial Saint. She has a certain amount of malice.]

A system notification appeared.

“A complete pseudo-divine weapon.” Han Zhao’s expression changed slightly. It seemed that Ji Zhuling had also obtained a lot of benefits because of Ji Baiwei’s rise.

Behind the two women were four women in their early twenties. They looked like followers.

“The Furious Flood Dragon Gang is really honored by the arrival of the Ji family’s envoy! On behalf of the entire gang, I welcome everyone.” Han Zhao walked forward with a smile.

“Sect Master Han, you’re welcome!” A smile appeared on Ji Zhuling’s stiff face.

The current Han Zhao was no longer the same as before.

Seventeenth on the Qilin Ranking. This ranking was also an extremely outstanding ranking for the descendants of aristocratic families, let alone someone like Han Zhao.

If not for the fact that it was related to the reunification of the Seven Evil Mask fragments, Ji Zhuling would really admire Han Zhao’s temperament. He could actually really master the Vajra Technique.

He was no longer the little ant she could easily crush back then.

If Han Zhao could obtain another ranking in the Central Prefecture Trial, many aristocratic families would probably invite him to join.

This time, in order to protect him, a higher-up of the Qi family even proposed to cooperate with the Ji family. Otherwise, she would not have personally come to Cloud Prefecture.

Han Zhao smiled and glanced at Ji Baiwei. This time, he had to ask for more gold to give her the second Seven Evil Mask fragment.

“Brother Han.” Ji Baiwei saw Han Zhao looking at her affectionately and could not help but feel warm in her heart. She quickly walked to her.

“Baiwei, you’ve grown taller.” Han Zhao smiled gently.

“I…” Ji Baiwei hesitated. After not seeing him for a few years, she felt that she had a lot to say, but she did not know where to start.

“Ahem.” Ji Zhuling saw the two of them flirting with each other as if no one was around and coughed lightly to remind them. “Everyone, please go to the side hall for a chat.”

Han Zhao took a step back and said seriously.

With that, he walked side by side with Ji Baiwei towards the central mountain range on the island.

Ji Zhuling had an inexplicable expression and followed.

The four followers followed.

The other gang members did not follow because they had received Han Zhao’s prior instructions.

“Young Sect Master, it’s too…”

They didn’t understand why Young Sect Master could obtain the favor of so many beautiful women at such a young age.

In the side hall of the Furious Flood Dragon Hall.

Han Zhao, Ji Baiwei, and Ji Zhuling sat down. Si Zhu quickly brought over three cups of hot tea.

The teapot was light green in color. The tea leaves were slender, like pine leaves. The water vapor was condensed and did not dissipate. It floated above the teacup like clouds.

“This is the Azure Cloud Silk Tea we bought in the outer seas. Please.” Han Zhao said.

Ji Zhuling picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Not bad.”

“I like it,” Ji Baiwei said with a smile.

“Then when you go back, I’ll prepare more for you. You can bring it back to drink.” Han Zhao chuckled.

“Okay.” Ji Baiwei was very happy.

“Sect Master Han, it’s time to talk about serious matters.” Ji Zhuling changed the topic.

“Mm.” Han Zhao nodded.

“The higher-ups of the Ji family sent us here firstly to retrieve the Seven Evil

Mask divine weapon fragment, and secondly to investigate the cause of Miss

Qingshuang’s death,” Ji Zhuling said in a low voice as she stared at Han Zhao.

“I naturally didn’t want to keep the Seven Evil Mask divine weapon fragment. After obtaining this item, I immediately sent someone to Great Liang to deliver a letter and prepared to give it to Baiwei,” Han Zhao said seriously.

“As for Miss Qingshuang’s death, I’m very regretful. She reached an agreement with me to stop Murong Qi from finding trouble with our Furious Flood Dragon Gang. I didn’t expect Murong Qi to be crazy enough to kill her.”

“By the time I arrived, it was already too late. I could only kill the seriously injured Murong Qi to avenge Miss Qingshuang and comfort her spirit in heaven..”
