Chapter 1167: Past Events of the Heavenly Fox Tribe
"Looks like you're a more important figure than you let on, Fellow Daoist Lekima. I wasn't planning to come to the primordial land after we parted ways all those years ago, but it seems like fate has brought me here anyway," Han Li said with a smile.
"I left that Featherform Scale to you precisely because I thought it would come in useful for you when you came to visit our primordial land, and that's proven to be the right decision. Looks like your fate is intertwined with our primordial land whether you like it or not, Fellow Daoist Han!" Lekima chuckled.
"Speaking of the Featherform Scale, it doesn't seem to be all that useful. I displayed it just now, only to be denounced as a fraud," Han Li said as he took a meaningful glance at Qing Dian.
Lekima's brows furrowed slightly upon hearing this, and he smiled as he said, "I'm sure there must be some type of misunderstanding involved, isn't that right, Fellow Daoist Qing Dian?"
"Indeed, Young Master, it was all just a big misunderstanding," Qing Dian hurriedly replied as he clasped the side of his face where his tusk had been snapped.
"Seeing as it was a misunderstanding, let's all move on now that it's been cleared up. Go and recover your snapped tusk, I'm sure your patriarch will be able to repair it for you," Lekima said with a smile.
"Yes, Young Master," Qing Dian replied in a slightly reluctant manner, then pulled his snapped tusk out of the city wall before departing.
"I'm assuming there must be a reason why you came here, right, Fellow Daoist Han? If there's anything that I can help you with, please go ahead and tell me," Lekima said.
Han Li hesitated momentarily upon hearing this, but ultimately decided to tell Lekima about Xiao Bai.
A look of excitement appeared in Lekima's eyes after hearing Han Li's story, and he said, "If this adolescent beast that you speak of really does possess the bloodline of the Ink-Eyed Pixiu, then our primordial land will owe you a massive favor for his return!"
"That's not important to me. Xiao Bai is a cherished companion of mine, so I just want him to be saved," Han Li said in a serious manner.
