When the two acknowledged Han Li, he felt an indescribable feeling well up inside him. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "On the year I left the village to pursue the Dao, I didn't expect for the Han Clan to become such an influential clan. It seems the saying is true. The affairs of the world are truly hard to predict! Stand up, you two. With the many years I haven't returned home, I can be considered a complete stranger to the Han Clan. There is no need to be so polite."
The middle-aged scholar stood up and spoke with great reverence, "Great Uncle's words are untrue. Had we unfilial descendants known that you were still alive, we would've certainly sent men to fulfill our filial duties."
Han Li waved his arm and calmly said, "Filial duties! There is no need. I've come only to take a look. I won't be staying long. As a pursuer of Immortality, it is better for me to have fewer ties to the mortal world."
