I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

Chapter 462: Chapter 361: Wizards Arrive

”How dare young people do things without owning up?”

”Since when do the warriors of the Jiuli Tribe become so hesitant?”

A few Wizard Elders spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction.

In their eyes, when Li Wu heard about Lady Witch, he wasn’t overjoyed but rather seemed somewhat evasive.

The High Priest’s gaze towards Li Wu also changed.

That’s Lady Witch of the Wizard Lineage, shouldn’t you reconsider what you just said?

Even after becoming a Great Power, except for the Great Chief and the Chieftain of the Jiuli Tribe, one can walk with confidence anywhere. But it’s better not to offend someone with a status like the Wizard’s.

Li Wu usually doesn’t act like a clueless hothead; why is his handling of this matter so unwise?

Only Li Wu himself knew what he was doing.

It’s not just a matter of offending these few Wizard Elders; even if the Chieftain were here, it wouldn’t weigh as heavily on him as Han Zhan does in his heart.

The Wizard Elders were about to say something when suddenly someone interrupted them from behind. ”You lot, instead of guiding the way properly, deliberately take me on a detour, so this is where you’ve ended up.”

Hearing the voice, the Wizard Elders shivered, and their originally arrogant expressions immediately turned deferential.

The High Priest looking at this scene felt a sense of déjà vu.

Then, he saw a young woman, pure and sacred, walking over from not far away.

”Lady Witch...”

The Wizard Elders, who were previously full of themselves, now stuttered in their speech.

”How did you find your way here?”

Obviously, they took a roundabout way just to prevent her from reaching the Hejian Village so quickly.

”That big guy is so obvious, I’m not blind.” Li Lingzhen pointed to the High Priest, her gaze refocusing on the Great Wizard Elder, ”Did you deliberately lead me on a detour to delay my arrival at Hejian Village?”

The Great Elder was a bit sweaty.

”Of course not! Haha, Lady Witch, you’re truly humorous.” The Great Wizard Elder laughed awkwardly twice, seeing no one laughing with him, he stopped.

”Lady Witch, we came here ahead of time just to give you a surprise. Look, I’ve already found the person in advance!”

The Second Wizard Elder, quick-witted, pointed to Li Wu standing aside.

Li Wu and Li Lingzhen looked at each other.

Who is this rough-looking man? Why do the elders look so eager? Am I supposed to know him?

Li Lingzhen’s mind raced, and she thought of a possibility.

”Li Wu?” Li Lingzhen blurted out his name.

Li Wu was startled for a moment, but quickly realized and nodded: ”That’s me.”

”Great, you lead the way!” After confirming that the Jiuli Tribe warrior in front of her was indeed Li Wu, Li Lingzhen became visibly excited.

For no other reason than because Li Wu is associated with Han Zhan.

Spotting Li Wu means the reunion with Han Zhan isn’t far away, right?

Though they had met in the Blood Pool, it couldn’t be considered a proper reunion, as they had all been in the Blood Embryo state. That’s why Li Lingzhen was so eager to come to Hejian Village.

Li Wu listened to Li Lingzhen’s words, glanced at the Wizard Elders, and then at the High Priest who was spacing out.

Seeing that none of them voiced any objections, Li Wu nodded in agreement: ”Alright!”

Li Wu understood what Li Lingzhen meant by leading the way.

Judging by the familiarity between Li Lingzhen and Han Zhan, she must have come this far to meet Han Zhan.

And as for Han Zhan’s residence, Li Wu certainly knew.

After the two finished speaking, they walked one behind the other towards Han Zhan’s residence.

At this moment, seeing them ”recognize each other,” the Wizard Elders all simultaneously smiled.

”See, we were right after all.”

...

Han Zhan was feeling a bit restless today.

With my current Cultivation Realm, there wouldn’t be any baseless disturbances unless something’s really happening.

What could it be?

Han Zhan first thought of the Wilderness of Zhulu, Fruit World.

He has now touched the mid-high level of this world, and the exploration of Fruit World is steadily progressing.

It’s indeed possible for something causing heart palpitations to happen.

Besides that, it’s outside the Fruit World.

Han Zhan hasn’t forgotten the initial reason for his entry into the Wilderness of Zhulu Fruit World.

The scene where Second Senior Brother Lin Jingxuan instructed him to enter the Fruit World was still vivid in his memory.

”Could it be the Imperial launched a full-scale attack on North County?”

Han Zhan muttered to himself with a solemn expression.

If that’s indeed the case, the progress of Fruit World exploration must be accelerated.

Han Zhan felt the tightening pressure of time.

Suddenly, someone quietly approached him from behind, placing an icy hand over his eyes.

Soon, a soft body leaned against him, accompanied by the enchanting scent of a young girl.

”Ah Zhan, don’t turn around, it’s Youwei.”

Han Zhan: ”...”

This didn’t sound quite right, having a hint of Forbidden Book flavor.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan showed a rare smile.

”Ah, it’s our scandalous Lady Witch.”

Li Lingzhen chuckled twice, pressing her cheek against Han Zhan’s back.

Since entering the Fruit World, they had been apart for so long; the joy of the reunion made them savor this brief moment of warmth.

”How does it feel?” Li Lingzhen asked.

”Feels like it’s gotten a bit bigger again,” Han Zhan said truthfully based on his senses.

Li Lingzhen lightly spat at that.

Indeed, she’s a scandalous witch; if it were Xia Youwei, she’d probably be blushing speechlessly by now.

”Stop messing around, I’m asking about your situation in the Fruit World.” Li Lingzhen tightened her grip around Han Zhan, emphasizing.

”Currently, I’m considered part of the Jiuli Tribe’s mid-high level. Based on my analysis, the main storyline of this Fruit World is about to rapidly unfold.”

”What about you?” Han Zhan asked in return.

”Not much.” Li Lingzhen tucked a lock of hair behind her ear, somewhat shyly looking down. ”I’ve just been educating them more about certain physiological lessons.”

Seeing her move and hearing her words, Han Zhan leaned back in tactical disbelief.

”That’s so you!”

”Is that why they respect you? A Forbidden Book author reemploying in the ancient times?” Han Zhan sighed; what an unforeseen path.

”No.” Li Lingzhen shook her head.

At least those proud Wizards hadn’t turned that foolish.

”I told them these were Divine Will instructions received from communicating with the Witch God. Those things, you know.” Li Lingzhen continued.

Han Zhan’s facial muscles began to stiffen.

He struggled to maintain the smile on his face. ”They... believed it?”

”Yes, they’ve not only believed it but also invented a new cultivation skill based on what I wrote.”

Han Zhan: ”6”
