That way, he could preserve his reputation in the group, avoid embarrassment in front of Han Li, and create the illusion that he had contributed as well—a perfect win-win-win.
In short, both of these so-called "sixth brothers" had their own hidden agendas, each harboring countless schemes.
Tang San, in particular, had suffered no small amount of humiliation during this period.
For example, just now, when Xiao Yan and Lin Dong were openly mocking him in the group chat, he was so furious that his lungs nearly exploded.
Yet, in the end, he gritted his teeth and endured it.
If Zhu Chen hadn't revealed the profound meaning of the Primal True Explanation, which stirred both of them and forced them to speak up,
these two would likely have continued lurking for quite some time.
[Han Li]: Senior Wang Lin, to be honest, I didn't actually enter the cave myself. I only sent an avatar inside.
Han Li originally intended to remain silent, but since Wang Lin had directly tagged him, he had no choice but to tell the truth.
In this chat group, aside from Zhu Chen—who knew his background perfectly—the person Han Li respected the most was Wang Lin.
After all, the other party was a powerhouse in the mid–Nascent Soul realm.
The next time Han Li went to the Void Heaven Palace, he even planned to invite Wang Lin to help keep order.
[Wang Lin]: You're quite cautious—sending an avatar to explore the cave instead.
[Han Li]: The danger was too great. I had no choice but to be careful.
[Wang Lin]: Mm. Your approach is correct. If the cave's owner was truly a Nascent Soul cultivator in life, your Golden Core–level divine sense would be insufficient to deal with him.
Wang Lin did not look down on Han Li's caution.
On the contrary, after learning about Han Li's methods, his admiration only grew.
The path of immortality was inherently filled with danger and life-or-death crises. A single mistake could cost one's life.
Which of today's great cultivators hadn't survived countless such ordeals?
Those arrogant and reckless individuals were likely long dead, buried under grass dozens of meters high.
Teng Li, whom Wang Lin had encountered in his early years, was the perfect example.
However, after learning that Han Li had used an avatar, someone finally couldn't hold back anymore.
[Tang San]: Damn it, Han Li! You actually used a clone to trick me into entering that cave! What were your intentions?!
[Han Li]: Brother Tang, don't worry. Although it was an avatar, it carried many magical artifacts and possessed sufficient strength. It was more than capable of assisting you inside.
[Tang San]: To hell with that! I've already returned to my own world. You can play around there by yourself.
The moment Tang San sent that message, he realized it sounded wrong and quickly added another.
[Tang San]: Actually, I already knew it was your avatar long ago. I just didn't expose you. Now we're even, so don't even think about getting those bottles of spiritual liquid back from me.
[Han Li]: ???
Han Li was speechless.
He had assumed Tang San was still inside the Xuan Bone Cave.
He never expected that the other party had already run away.
Han Li gave Tang San a two-word evaluation for this irresponsible early retreat—
Shameless.
[Xiao Yan]: Hahaha! Tang San, I bet you were scared stiff and ran back, weren't you? And you still dare claim you saw through Brother Han Li's avatar? If you had that ability, I'd eat shit upside down!
[Lin Dong]: @Tang San Enough nonsense. Come out and fight me one-on-one!
Xiao Yan and Lin Dong could no longer tolerate it.
Tang San had taken Han Li's benefits, contributed nothing, and fled at the first sign of danger—was that something a human would do?
[Tang San]: You two rookies—I'm too lazy to waste words on you. Get lost!
Tang San snorted coldly, then turned his attention back to Zhu Chen.
[Tang San]: @ZhuChen Where's your Primal True Explanation? Hurry up and upload it. You've hyped it up so much—who knows if you're just lying? Don't worry, my Purple Demon Eye has reached the Mustard Seed Realm. I can see through all illusions at a glance!
[Notification]: Group member (Tang San) has been muted for 720 hours by the group owner (Zhu Chen).
Zhu Chen didn't bother arguing.
He directly muted Tang San.
[Xiao Yan]: Beautiful!
