Chapter 369: Chapter 193: Another Imperial Weapon Emerges! The Dragon Girl and the Rainbow Dragon Loach!_1
Before they knew it, half a month had passed.
On this day, Han Li strolled through a mortal city near Chengsheng Mountain with Yao Xi.
With Han Li deliberately concealing his presence, the mortals did not notice anything unusual. In their eyes, Han Li and Yao Xi were just an ordinary husband and wife.
Yao Xi, holding Han Li’s hand, walked cheerfully down the street, sometimes stopping to look at this, sometimes stopping to look at that. In no time, she had bought a large pile of tasty treats: sugar figurines, candied haw sticks, meat buns, beggar’s chicken…
Han Li tucked these away in his sleeve and continued to accompany Yao Xi as they shopped. A smile remained on his face, showing no sign of impatience.
Aside from Yao Xi wanting to experience the hustle and bustle of the human world, Han Li also wanted to take a walk to see if he could find a promising chive seedling.
“Husband, I want to eat a fresh flower cake.”
“Husband, I want to eat Dragon’s Beard Candy.”
“Husband, I want to eat mung bean cake.”
Yao Xi, holding Han Li’s hand, acted coquettishly with hopeful eyes.
These snacks were nothing to her; she had eaten countless delicacies in the Han Mansion. But now, in her and Han Li’s little world, Yao Xi wanted Han Li to buy them for her; somehow, the snacks seemed tastier at this moment.
“Alright, alright, I’ll buy everything for Xi Xi.”
Han Li chuckled, pulled out some silver, and at each stand he threw down a large ingot, magnanimously telling the vendors to keep the change.
“Husband is the best~”
Yao Xi tiptoed to give Han Li a kiss, her face radiating happiness.
The couple continued to stroll for a while until Yao Xi suddenly pulled Han Li toward a crowd of people. With a slight lift of his eyelid, Han Li knew what was happening and did not refuse.
They walked briskly closer and joined the crowd of onlookers.
At the center of the onlookers were two figures, a father and daughter. The father appeared to be in his thirties, and the daughter about seven or eight, both dressed in coarse old clothes patched up quite a bit.
The father and daughter were performing, putting on a brilliant show that elicited praise from the crowd.
But when the little girl held up a bowl to collect the reward money, only a few people tipped, which made her look more and more disheartened.
The middle-aged man, seeing this scene, clenched his fist behind his back, his heart sinking with regret for his inability.
When the little girl approached Han Li and Yao Xi with her bowl, Yao Xi squeezed her husband’s palm. Han Li smiled and immediately called out,
“Good show, a reward is due!”
His robust voice erupted like thunder, bringing surprised joy to the disheartened father and daughter. The middle-aged man quickly looked over upon hearing the voice, and the surrounding people also turned their gaze in that direction.
Excitedly lifting her head, the little girl’s clear eyes looked at the plain-looking couple in front of her, her face brimming with joy.
It wasn’t about how much she was tipped; just getting by was enough. She simply didn’t want her hard work and her father’s performance to go unrecognized.
Han Li extended his right hand, placed his sleeve over the bowl the little girl was holding up, and gave it a shake. Ingots of silver instantly fell down, filling the bowl to the brim.
“Sir, that’s enough, that’s enough, please don’t give any more,” the little girl said excitedly, but hurriedly added.
Han Li nodded slightly and stopped giving silver.
The surrounding locals watched in awe, seeing so much gleaming silver for the first time. It was dazzling.
Although tempted, no one spoke; the couple looked ordinary, but anyone who could give so much in tips was certainly not common. Offending someone of high status would be troublesome.
Looking at the silver in her bowl, the little girl hesitated for just a moment before saying, “Sir, we do not need so much silver, not even a single ingot. A little small change will do.”
With that, the little girl held up the bowl again, signaling for Han Li to take back the previously given tips and leave her with a little small change.
At this moment, the girl’s father also came over and solemnly said, “Esteemed sir, we thank you for your compassionate deed, but we cannot accept a reward we have not earned. Our performance is not worth so much silver; please, sir, take it back.”
The middle-aged man bowed deeply and did not straighten up.
Surprise appeared on the faces of the onlookers, even greater than when Han Li had given so much in tips. There was at least several dozen taels of silver there, enough to sustain an ordinary man for ten years, yet this father and daughter were resisting the temptation. If it had been any of the onlookers, surely they would have accepted.
A hint of admiration flashed in Han Li’s eyes. After a moment’s thought, he flicked two streams of True Yuan into the bodies of the father and daughter, transforming them into True Yuan seeds that would continuously improve their constitutions.
Although the father and daughter had no innate talent, with the help of the True Yuan seeds, within a year they would be able to reach the peak of the True Qi Realm, their combat ability surpassing many Innate Realm Cultivators.
The True Yuan seeds could also extend the lives of the father and daughter, allowing them to live an extra thirty to fifty years without issue, and achieve success in the future.
Afterward, Han Li took back most of the silver, leaving only one ingot behind as he left with Yao Xi.
In the past, he had searched everywhere for opportunities; now, he himself was the opportunity for countless cultivators. With his strength, even the slightest leak of it would be a vast opportunity for others.
“Thank you, sir, for the reward!”
Feeling a warm sensation in their bodies, the father and daughter once again bowed and called out.
Yao Xi looked back, waving her hand, as she left with her husband.
“Husband, thank you,” she suddenly said as they walked down the street.
Seeing the little girl reminded her of herself in the past, also living only with her father. After her father’s death, she had reluctantly tried to sell herself to afford his burial, but nobody wanted to buy, until she met her husband Han Li.
Because she had experienced darkness, she wanted to bring light to the little girl.
