"How can this brat die so easily? I want to torment him a thousand times over, inflict every torture in the world upon him. Immediately find someone to save Jiang Li, don't let him die so quickly!" Lin Xiong's eyes were filled with ferocity as he spoke fiercely.
Upon hearing Lin Xiong's words, the surrounding Lin family members nodded heavily. The exorbitant bounty they offered was not for a dead man. Following this, Lin family members immediately went to find physicians with advanced medical skills, preparing to save the half-dead Jiang Li.
...
Northern Plains.
A desolate mountainous area.
"This Lin Xiong truly hates me to the bone!" the silver-masked figure murmured to himself.
The silver-masked cultivator was none other than Jiang Li. Jiang Li had initially intended to claim the bounty himself. However, the Lin family's strength was astonishing, with an existence at the quasi-Emperor ancestor level within the family. If he were discovered, the half-Emperor weapon and Emperor technique would be out of reach. Therefore, for the sake of caution, Jiang Li found many people and ultimately set his sights on Ye Xingwen, the Divine Son of the Three Xuan Domain. Given his status, with Jiang Li's arrangements, he was sure to obtain the bounty. After all, the Qiankun Holy Land was not to be trifled with. While the Lin family might dare to deceive others, they couldn't possibly deceive the Qiankun Holy Land. Moreover, Ye Xingwen had a very good relationship with his junior sister. Jiang Li held Ye Xingwen's life and Tang Yuning in his grasp, leaving Ye Xingwen no choice but to compromise.
"Since my senior brother has already captured Jiang Li, can you tell me who you are?" Tang Yuning then asked Jiang Li with a curious expression. After spending some time together, Tang Yuning discovered that this mysterious person was quite decent in some aspects. Furthermore, he didn't seem to harbor extreme malice towards her and her senior brother. As the Divine Maiden of the Qiankun Holy Land, she cultivated a special secret art, making her perception of emotions particularly acute. Although this mysterious person often ordered her around, he never asked her to do anything outrageous. Tang Yuning was extremely confident in her own beauty. Many people looked at her as if they wanted to absorb her into their eyes. As for the vulgar words and lewd thoughts whispered in private, they made Tang Yuning feel disgusted from the bottom of her heart. However, by this person's side, Tang Yuning felt no strange thoughts directed at her; he simply treated her as a simple hostage. This feeling made Tang Yuning quite relaxed, and coupled with his incredibly captivating aura, Tang Yuning felt deeply captivated.
"You are very eager to know who I am?" Jiang Li said faintly, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
"No, I... I'm just curious!" Tang Yuning felt a few ripples in her heart as she met Jiang Li's icy, piercing gaze.
Jiang Li looked at the peerless beauty before him and felt a touch of disbelief. He saw a hint of affection in Tang Yuning's eyes. Was this a joke? Had his attractiveness reached a point where even a mask couldn't conceal it? Jiang Li found it somewhat absurd. He had almost killed her and threatened her senior brother into doing his bidding. Yet, she was developing some feelings for him, with her favorability reaching 50. It was utterly outrageous. Jiang Li himself couldn't comprehend it... Did she have some special preference that he hadn't fully discerned? No, he needed to check again.
Immediately, Jiang Li activated his Life Script System.

...
Could it be due to this Five Elements Dao Body? The Five Elements Dao Body contains the power of the five elements and possesses numerous divine mysteries, being naturally attuned to the Great Dao of the Five Elements. Jiang Li's heart stirred. His Myriad Laws Immortal Body also possessed many divine mysteries, capable of accommodating all laws and being inherently compatible with all Great Daos. However, due to Jiang Li's current cultivation at Supreme Realm First Heaven, he couldn't fully unleash the Myriad Laws Immortal Body's potential. There were many mysterious aspects within the Myriad Laws Immortal Body that Jiang Li himself couldn't comprehend.
"You... you don't have to look at me like that, I... I won't ask anymore, okay?" a faint voice, like a mosquito's buzz, entered Jiang Li's mind, disrupting his thoughts. At this moment, Tang Yuning's face was flushed with embarrassment, and she lowered her head deeply, like a shy young girl.
Damn it... 60... Jiang Li watched as Tang Yuning's favorability suddenly increased by 10 points...
Jiang Li: ???
Another girl who is self-invested...
"Senior, I've already obtained the Lin family's bounty!" Just then, a nervous voice sounded in their ears. Not far away, Ye Xingwen rushed over with an anxious expression. Jiang Li withdrew his thoughts. Finally, here it is?
"Hand over the items to me, and you can leave. I will also remove the restriction on you!" Jiang Li then said slowly.
"I hope Senior will keep your promise, otherwise, the Qiankun Holy Land will spare no effort to pursue you!" Ye Xingwen took a deep breath and said. With that, he directly handed the Heavenly Pole Sun Moon Tower and the [Chaotic Ancient Heavenly Demon Fist] to Jiang Li. At the same time, Ye Xingwen informed Jiang Li of the anomalies the Lin family had mentioned regarding these two items. The half-Emperor weapon was sealed by a mysterious force, and practicing the Emperor technique would lead to qi deviation...
Jiang Li's eyes narrowed. This Lin family was truly calculating, trading these flawed items for their lives. As expected, the old ginger is spicier. Jiang Li had originally thought that having someone from the Qiankun Holy Land claim the bounty would prevent any further issues. He hadn't expected them to pull such a trick.
"Holy crap, Master, this is the Heavenly Pole Sun Moon Tower of the Heavenly Pole Quasi-Emperor!" At this moment, a wisp of black smoke emerged from Jiang Li. The Nightmare Beast appeared beside Jiang Li, its eyes filled with fervent desire. The Nightmare Beast's excitement made Jiang Li wonder if the Heavenly Pole Sun Moon Tower held some hidden profundity... A ripple stirred in Jiang Li's heart.
