He seed to understand why Shen Han dared to speak to him that way back then, it turned out he had so skills.
It could be considered arrogance based on talent.
During the promotion competition, Shen Han had such a mont of glory that even now, thinking about it, Xu Yuan feels quite displeased.
Perhaps he should find another opportunity to suppress him properly.
At this mont, in Zheng Changnian’s small courtyard.
Zheng Changye and Ying Jiu were both present.
Guan Yutang was resting in the guest room of his courtyard.
Ying Jiu and Zheng Changye both went to check on him, and fortunately, with the protection of the Divine Soul, his injuries were no more than superficial.
But without Mansion Master Xu stepping in to protect him back then,
those myriad Sword Shadows might have severely injured Guan Yutang.
"His strength should be at the peak of the Spiritual Harmony Realm, just a step away from entering the Loose Immortal Realm.
Without the Divine Soul, purely relying on his own Techniques, he defeated Yutang.
It seems we truly underestimated him."
Zheng Changnian’s gaze was stern, and ntioning Shen Han, there was a hint of malice on his face.
Junior Sister Ying Jiu also nodded: "That Sword Shadow technique of his, I asked several Mansion Masters, even Elders... all said they had never seen it...
Who knows what it would take for him to be willing to teach it..."
It seed that Junior Sister Ying Jiu had been intrigued by Shen Han’s technique from the first eting.
Upon seeing it today, not only did the technique appear splendid, but its power was extraordinary.
She naturally desired it even more.
Compared to the two, Zheng Changye sohow felt a sense of imnse satisfaction.
Previously, when he sparred with Shen Han, he felt utterly disgraced, feeling ashad of himself.
But upon witnessing today, even Zhang Xiangxiang’s superior opponent, Guan Yutang, was defeated by Shen Han.
Yet he had been able to spar with Shen Han evenly.
In this comparison, doesn’t it suggest that he is even stronger than Guan Yutang!
Thinking this way, Zheng Changye felt a hint of pride.
Guan Yutang was the most talented and promising disciple of the Guan Family’s generation, yet he ultimately lost, didn’t he?
"Senior Brother Changnian, next month you’ll be in secluded cultivation, don’t let these matters cloud your mind.
An unstable temperant is of no benefit to cultivation at all."
Hearing Ying Jiu’s concern, Zheng Changnian nodded.
"Junior Sister Ying is right, how could I let myself be upset over an outer sect disciple.
It’s truly lowering my status a bit."
As he spoke, Zheng Changnian also smiled, as if pretending he had already let it go.
"My focus should still be on Senior Brother Zhao Chao and the others; they are my true opponents."
After the words, Ying Jiu seed to have recalled sothing.
"The mid-month Cultivation Technique Discussion et of the Seven Sects.
If Senior Brother Changnian goes into seclusion, you might not be able to participate."
At these words, Zheng Changnian shrugged indifferently.
"Junior Sister Ying can go alone, you should be enough to showcase the strength of our Cangxuan Valley to the various sects.
Every year the competitions of the Seven Sects involve disciples under the age of twenty-five.
Now that I am twenty-seven, attending would only be to observe. Yet, thinking about it, I know Junior Sister Ying well enough to see her moves; they probably wouldn’t provide any insights.
So, I’ll continue with my seclusion and cultivation."
With Zheng Changnian saying this, Ying Jiu had no more to add.
Indeed, for many seasoned cultivators, the discussion ets of the Seven Sects hold little significance.
The exchanges, competitions, all involve disciples in their early twenties.
"As for Shen Han, let’s put it aside for now, until I leave seclusion, then we can speak of other matters."
...
Great Wei, Capital City.
Since Luo Zuchen’s assassination attempt on Shen Han, it’s almost been half a year.
Those who had rely heard of Shen Han’s na now only sigh of a life prematurely ended when ntioning him.
Those close or friendly with Shen Han.
Even though half a year has passed, they still hope for Shen Han’s return.
An assassination attempt by an Immortal Realm expert on a young person offers bleak hopes.
Now that Luo Zuchen is missing, and Shen Han is also nowhere to be found.
Whether Shen Han is still alive has beco a mystery.
In the capital, both Mountain Sea Academy and Tianyi Academy have declared Luo Zuchen a traitor.
Mountain Sea Academy even publicly, in the sternest terms, condemned Luo Zuchen.
Were it not for Luo Zuchen having Luo Changping’s backing, he could never have beco an instructor at Mountain Sea Academy.
On Tianyi Academy’s side, the Dean was in seclusion for two whole months.
During these two months, he didn’t leave his courtyard a single ti.
Carrying a hoe, continually digging in the garden within the courtyard.
After planting seeds, he would dig up the soil again the next day...
Recently, he’s been slightly better, but the Dean sotis still appears bewildered, as if he’s lost his soul.
In fact, many people can understand the Tianyi Dean.
After so many years since the establishnt of Tianyi Academy, they finally found such an outstanding disciple.
And not only was he excellent, Shen Han was also courteous and with a great character.
Tianyi Academy extended so care to him, and this child recompensed it manifold.
Tianyi Academy not having a worry about students joining as it does now, owes much to Shen Han.
Yet, as the Dean, he couldn’t even protect such an outstanding disciple...
Moving forward, it’s uncertain if there’ll be another student like him willing to join Tianyi Academy.
Even with equivalent talent, it’s unlikely to find one with a deanor like Shen Han’s.
The students of Tianyi Academy also feel a deep regret.
Especially those who had interacted with Shen Han held him in high regard.
However, it seems the best among us rarely have longevity...
Anyang City, Yun Mansion.
Compared to the Tianyi Dean’s state, Madam Yun and Cailing can only be described as ’even more’.
Over five months, both have lost a lot of weight.
They only eat a small bowl of porridge each day, losing their appetite soon after.
What gives them the courage to persist is that Shen Han is still just missing for now.
A glimr of hope remains.
Externally, the Yun Family made an announcent that whoever can safely bring back Shen Han will be supplied with ten High Grade Pills per month.
As long as the Yun Family stands and they are alive, the supply of ten Pills per month will never cease.
A hundred years, two hundred years, the supply remains unwavering.
The ssage has been sent, yet there has been no feedback.
High Grade Pills are not cheap; ten a month would leave even one person with plenty excess.
Even those entering the Immortal Realm would find a monthly gift of High Grade Pills quite enticing.
Yet, Luo Zuchen and Shen Han have seemingly vanished off the face of the earth.
Even Immortal Realm experts cannot find any trace of the two.
Yun’an City, Shen Family.
The forr Shen Family, once ho to two prodigies.
All of Great Wei praised the Shen Family’s excellent ancestral lineage, producing such talents,
even producing two at once.
But in a single day, Shen Ye’s right leg was severed.
And Shen Han vanished entirely.
People privately knew of the conflict between Shen Han, the Shen Family, and Shen Ye.
But none expected the conflict to run so deep, reaching a life-or-death level.
In Shen Mansion of Yun’an City, within the main courtyard.
The sound of things being smashed is frequently heard.
The entire prowess of Shen Ye has drastically declined with his leg amputated.
His temper has also changed drastically.
In the past, Shen Ye had many thoughts, was selfish yet wouldn’t easily reveal it.
He always tried to conceal his temperant.
But now, his violence is evident on the surface.
