Yao Zhonggu frowned, his mind constantly pondering and considering a counterasure.
"Great-grandfather, Wanning is the hope of our Snow Mountain House, and also the hope of our Yao Family.
I still think that Wanning should not co into contact with those strange people.
And as for this Shen Han, if he’s truly that capable, why is he still in an Outer Domain sect like the Star Tower?
If Yu You from the Celestial Sword Sect thinks highly of him, why not bring him to the Celestial Sword Sect for training?
Grandson always feels that this Shen Han was deliberately released, specifically targeting Wanning."
As Yao Zhonggu spoke, his wife beside him also nodded.
"Moreover, after this event, no matter how you look at it, he has offended the entire Immortal Bow Mansion.
Even if we wanted to agree to Wanning getting closer to him, it’s very inappropriate at this ti.
Offending the Immortal Bow Mansion and Huo Yuan, how long can he survive?"
Yao Zhonggu’s words seed well-grounded to him.
But hearing this, Patriarch Yao shook his head several tis.
"Great-grandfather..."
Seeing this, Yao Zhonggu and his wife understood that the Patriarch was not satisfied with their decision.
"So, after thinking it over, you still want to deal with Shen Han?
You think an Outer Domain disciple is unworthy of Wanning?"
"Great-grandfather, grandson still thinks Jun Wumo might be more suitable."
Patriarch Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, seemingly contemplating sothing.
Winter had already set in yesterday, and occasionally, withered leaves fell in the yard, creating a sowhat desolate atmosphere.
"Zhonggu, who do you think is the strongest in our Snow Mountain House?"
"Isn’t it obvious? It’s naturally you, Great-grandfather..."
Patriarch Yao nodded slightly and stood up.
"As the strongest in Snow Mountain House, I can only sigh in comparison when facing figures like Yu You.
Living in seclusion within Snow Mountain House has made you both a little unclear about our strength and our sect’s status."
As he spoke, Patriarch Yao’s tone seed to grow stern.
"You think that because Snow Mountain House has a Forbidden Land and can make so requests each year,
because other major sects co to flatter us, it ans Snow Mountain House holds a high status?
You think you can deal with whoever you want and handle matters as you please?"
Years of peace and arrogance have made Yao Zhonggu and his wife forget where Snow Mountain House should stand.
Perhaps getting help from top sects a few tis made them presu they stand above major sects.
In reality, riding in a luxury carriage does not necessarily an one has the capability to own a luxury carriage.
"Zhonggu, do you know why we open the Forbidden Land of Snow Mountain House?"
The sudden question startled Yao Zhonggu.
"Because of the covetousness of other sects, to alleviate..."
Patriarch Yao nodded.
"It’s good you understand. We are forced to open the Forbidden Land, don’t think that making so demands ans we hold transcendent status.
The Qianyang Sect and the Celestial Sword Sect, don’t they have mystical techniques?
But are they willing to share them?"
With these questions, Yao Zhonggu vaguely understood what his great-grandfather wanted to convey.
"Great-grandfather ans we’ve overestimated ourselves..."
Patriarch Yao looked at him sternly: "What do you think?"
"Think carefully about Shen Han’s performance during the exploration in the mountains. When faced with Huo Yuan’s apprentice, he directly drew his sword to kill. Even when Huo Yuan intervened, he had no intention of stopping.
Daring to act like this, what do you think it indicates?
First, it indicates his strength already surpasses Qingyun, surpasses Qingyun wielding the Immortal Bow.
And do you know his age?
According to the list compiled by the Celestial Sword Sect, this Shen Han is only twenty-one years old this year.
Younger than our Wanning."
Patriarch Yao spoke with utmost seriousness, hoping that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law could clearly comprehend this.
"Second, you both keep saying that Shen Han offended Huo Yuan and how he will suffer in the future.
But think about it, Shen Han destroyed Qingyun’s hands, yet nothing happened to him.
Think carefully, is Huo Yuan such a good-natured person?
Shen Han hard his apprentice, and he didn’t seek revenge imdiately?
If he plans to seek revenge later, what’s wrong with him?
Shen Han, Huo Yuan can’t touch him, and even Yu You, willing to risk injury, wants to protect him.
These circumstances speak volus."
Patriarch Yao’s words indeed left Yao Zhonggu and his wife in silence.
In the past, they hadn’t considered so much.
Perhaps because of the arrogance in their hearts, they even looked down on the Celestial Sword Sect at tis.
"Great-grandfather, what do you think we should do next..."
Yao Zhonggu and his wife lowered their heads slightly; it seed they were convinced.
"In my old man’s opinion, stop all actions against Shen Han.
Inform the Jun Family as well, telling them to stop provoking."
"But that child Wanning insists on getting close to him, what should we do then?"
"These matters can be addressed later.
First, you both need to curb the arrogance in your hearts. This Shen Han, from the stories I’ve heard, already gives the sense that his talent and potential are extraordinary.
You always say others are deliberately getting near Wanning. Who knows, in the end, they might find our Wanning undesirable."
Hearing this, Yao Zhonggu was sowhat unconvinced.
"He doesn’t know our Wanning’s abilities; if he knew, how could he possibly find her undesirable."
Patriarch Yao did not argue further, instead finding a stone seat to sit on.
"Let’s stop this matter now. Do not make any more moves against Shen Han.
This child is not the kind of Outer Domain disciple we thought he was.
We must act wisely. When it’s ti to back off, do not act recklessly and impulsively.
If they investigate, and Qingyun’s actions against Shen Han are brought up, we will simply feign ignorance.
If asked, we will separate ourselves cleanly from these matters.
As for Jun Wumo, if they really trace it back to him, just say he was jealous because Shen Han was close to Wanning, and it has nothing to do with others."
Patriarch Yao’s arrangents had covered all that needed consideration.
With the Patriarch having made arrangents, the Yao Zhonggu couple naturally could only follow.
After taking their leave, the two of them departed.
Watching their departing figures, Patriarch Yao hesitated for a mont, then gestured.
The next mont, an old man in black erged from a hidden corner.
"Patriarch."
"Keep an eye on those two. I feel they won’t listen to reason.
They might be thinking in their hearts that I’m cowardly and lack boldness.
If they plan to make any more moves against Shen Han, stop them. Don’t drag the entire Snow Mountain House into this."
"Understood, sir."
As he spoke, the man leaped away.
Patriarch Yao leaned back in the stone chair, his eyes serious.
Over the years, those from Snow Mountain House have grown increasingly arrogant.
As if they thought everyone in the Divine Land was seeking them out.
But in truth, Snow Mountain House was forced to open the Forbidden Land.
Who knows what they have to be so arrogant about.
Moreover, opening the Forbidden Land requires a substantial amount of resources. It cannot just be done at will.
Let’s just hope no trouble arises this ti.
Patriarch Yao had already made up his mind.
For this Forbidden Land training, he would personally oversee it to prevent problems from occurring.
...
The day of the Forbidden Land training was drawing near.
Over at Star Tower, Shen Han and Senior Sister Guan did not head directly to Snow Mountain House.
This ti, they were going with the qualifications of the Celestial Sword Sect.
The path to Snow Mountain House was with the Celestial Sword Sect, they needed to head there first.
On the way to the Celestial Sword Sect, Shen Han and Senior Sister Guan sat on Senior Yu You’s large magical artifact boat.
On the large magical artifact, there were only three of them.
During their journey to the Celestial Sword Sect, Shen Han again saw the mysterious light orb in the Void.
In clear skies, this light orb appeared particularly striking.
Shen Han had wondered if it was so kind of unique weather phenonon.
So kind of celestial light?
But how could it persist like this, seemingly unable to dissipate?
Seeing Shen Han gaze at the light orb in the sky, Yu You frowned and approached.
"This light orb has existed for six years now."
Yu You looked at the orb and spoke softly.
"Initially, we all thought it was so weather-related celestial light and didn’t think much of it.
But who would have thought it wouldn’t dissipate for six years?
Not only has it not dissipated, it seems even brighter in its brilliance..."
"Senior Yu You, do you know what this light orb is?"
Yu You shook his head slightly, "Not only is it unfamiliar to , but even the most learned Mr. Zhuang in Divine Land hasn’t heard of such a phenonon.
Neither ancient texts nor even mundane books have recorded such a sight.
In the six years it has existed, so have said it’s a celestial on.
That a natural disaster might be coming.
Others say it’s an auspicious sign of fortune.
It’s hard to determine whether it’s an on of fortune or disaster."
Shen Han frowned, contemplating.
Such unknowns are always worrying.
"Senior Yu You, which possibility do you lean towards?
Disaster, or an auspicious sign?"
At Shen Han’s words, Yu You looked up again at the light orb in the sky.
"People love auspicious signs; they like to create and interpret things they don’t understand.
If you ask whether I believe this light orb is an auspicious sign, I absolutely do not.
If the orb disappeared, then it could be called an auspicious sign.
Sothing that suddenly appears out of nowhere cannot possibly be an auspicious sign."
"So, Senior Yu You, you lean towards it being so kind of disaster, or a bad on?"
Shen Han spoke directly.
Although the light orb in the Void might be nothing more than a light orb,
they must make assessnts and prepare in advance.
"Good things need to be sought out, but bad things are hard to drive away.
This undispersed light orb, quite naturally, I consider it a foreboding on."
Yu You spoke frankly, for people at his level are always estimating and judging.
To prevent this thing from indeed bringing about sothing truly dreadful.
