Han’s third granduncle’s recent words made Wen Ranran ponder deeply.
The humiliation faced in one’s youth, if not vented.
It might indeed affect one’s whole life, even giving rise to a tangled heart demon.
In her heart, Wen Ranran was already contemplating ways to handle it.
At present, those who humiliated Junior Brother Qianmu back then happened to be in Five Immortals City.
The anger and resentment in her heart.
To truly let go, perhaps it still depends on that person.
...
Bamboo Tower.
This kind of house creaks when people walk on it.
No need to elaborate on what the living experience might be.
However, being stuck in Five Immortals City as a servant disciple, there’s nothing much to complain about.
At this moment, Han had already etched the "Great Tao Fusion Technique" completely in his mind.
After stepping into the Immortal Realm, progressing surely wouldn’t be easy.
But with this "Great Tao Fusion Technique," at least he had a clear direction to move forward.
In Great Wei, it might take someone a hundred years of cultivation to improve.
Only to find out in the end that they had taken the wrong path.
With a clear direction, at least every step would be firm.
During his rest, Han transmitted a message to Madam Yun.
The habit of regularly reporting his safety should not be forgotten.
In the sound transmission magical artifact, Madam Yun’s voice resounded.
But today, Madam Yun’s voice was somewhat heavy, seemingly in a bad mood.
Han fabricated some events and spoke to Madam Yun.
Saying how well he was doing here, even better than when he was at Yun Mansion.
But today, upon hearing this, Madam Yun said nothing.
"Han..."
After a while, Madam Yun spoke up.
Hearing himself being addressed this way, Han felt something was amiss.
"Han, why not return to Great Wei? Why suffer there...
No matter what, you are the youngest Immortal Realm strongman of Great Wei.
No matter how things change, we cannot possibly live worse than we did at Shen Mansion."
After Madam Yun finished speaking, Cailing’er chimed in as well.
"Young Master Han, we can find a secluded village together.
Even if something happens, if we hide away, it won’t affect us..."
Hearing this, Han paused for a moment.
"Madam, Cailing’er, have you heard something..."
Cailing over there paused for a moment.
"Young Master Han, now the entire Great Wei knows.
They say you went there to test your cultivation talent and ended up with the worst grade.
Forced to do menial tasks there..."
Saying this, Cailing’er’s tone carried a hint of heartache.
"Han, come back..."
Madam Yun also spoke again to persuade.
Hearing this, Han immediately realized.
In this Five Immortals City, surely quite a few people from Great Wei had come.
That day, when he took the talent test, others must have seen him.
And they spread the news back to Great Wei.
"Han, your uncle’s disappearance can only be blamed on himself.
You’ve done enough; you don’t need to demean yourself like this.
You do not know, now many people are waiting to see you humiliated.
It’s said that the Shen family members who fled Great Wei are mocking you..."
Today, Madam Yun spoke much more than usual, continuously persuading Han.
"Han, no matter what, your identity and strength are there.
You shouldn’t be treated like this.
And certainly not taking up menial tasks..."
She said a lot, but Han surely wouldn’t choose to return to Great Wei immediately.
"Madam, Cailing’er, rest assured.
I’m only here to assume an identity and gather more information.
I’m really doing well.
Besides the status and position being less than ideal, everything else is actually not bad."
Seeing the two still intent on persuading him, Han came up with some reasons to reassure them as much as possible.
However, the two women were surely still upset.
Especially now that Great Wei was mocking Han everywhere.
After the sound transmission with Madam Yun, Han contacted Shi Yuezhu.
He shared with her his insights from the "Great Tao Fusion Technique."
After the transmission, Shi Yuezhu, like Madam Yun, brought up the idea of returning.
She even mentioned wanting to live in seclusion with Han.
Hearing this, Han was a bit touched.
It’s just that there was still Luo Changping not dealt with, and current upheavals were numerous.
If he were to live in seclusion now, if his enemies used this time to grow stronger.
Later, his life would be in others’ hands.
Words of reassurance, Shi Yuezhu had a better understanding of Han’s cultivation talent.
Even with that test, she simply did not take it seriously.
How Han’s cultivation talent truly was, whether he was talented, Shi Yuezhu was clear.
During the transmission, noises suddenly arose outside.
At this time, usually, it was the outer sect disciple named Xing Yonghai, who came to distribute the next day’s chores.
Those wanting to do chores naturally had to go.
But Han usually just sat in his room, pretending no one’s there.
Xing Yonghai had no interest in roll call.
To him, these servant disciples were short of contributions.
These work tasks he held were eagerly sought after.
Roll call was utterly unnecessary.
Han originally planned, like always, to just ignore it.
But today, I kept hearing someone calling my name from below.
For a while, it seemed like no one showed up.
Some people even started searching one room after another.
Seeing this, Han frowned slightly.
He began calculating in his mind whether he had made any mistakes that exposed him.
In his hesitation, Han pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard.
Seeing Han come out, the outer sect disciple in charge, Xing Yonghai, had a face that was extremely sullen at this moment.
"I told you not to cause trouble for me, yet you just don’t seem to understand human language."
As he said this, Xing Yonghai was gritting his teeth.
He seemed extremely angry.
"You have to come here every night to listen to instruction. Don’t you know these rules?"
Han looked at him indifferently.
The strength and realm of these people cultivating the new system were all in an external state.
Xing Yonghai in front of him was about Sixth Grade First Snow Realm strength.
This strength was quite ordinary, but it didn’t stop him from being arrogant.
People like Han, who cultivated the old system, appeared to have strength that they couldn’t perceive.
For this very reason, Xing Yonghai was extraordinarily arrogant.
After saying some harsh words to Han, he turned around.
When he looked at the woman beside him, his previous gritted teeth and harshness disappeared.
And what emerged was a fawning, ingratiating expression.
Watching it gave one a feeling of contempt.
The servant disciples around might have thought the same.
But while they might have thought it, no one dared to say anything aloud.
"Senior Sister Wen, I’ve called the person for you.
This person is new and doesn’t know the rules.
Later, I will teach him a lesson and let him learn the rules of our Five Immortals City."
Hearing Xing Yonghai’s words, Wen Ranran, who was standing aside, took two steps forward.
After hearing what Qianmu Fan said, the image of Han in her mind should be a vicious image.
Of poor character and lacking morals.
He should look ugly and treacherous.
But upon seeing Han, she realized there was a huge gap from what she imagined.
However, Wen Ranran was not a shallow woman based on appearance alone.
In her view, Qianmu Fan’s potential far exceeded Han’s.
"Are you Han, the one from the same hometown as Junior Brother Qianmu Fan?"
Upon hearing the words Junior Brother Qianmu Fan, Han already understood the reason.
"I don’t know Qianmu Fan well. If you want to please him, think of other ways."
Han spoke indifferently.
Before the words even fell, Xing Yonghai hastily interjected.
"Watch your words, you’re not allowed to call Senior Brother Qianmu by his full name.
And this is Senior Sister Wen Ranran, a direct disciple of our Five Immortals City!
Mind your attitude!"
Xing Yonghai reprimanded loudly, very dissatisfied with Han’s words.
Before him, Wen Ranran was a direct disciple of the sect.
Typically, he wouldn’t even be qualified to lay eyes on her.
Today, she came for his help, a big opportunity he needed to grasp.
But despite saying so much, Han didn’t even glance at him.
Beside him, Wen Ranran began to speak.
"I actually came to find you to ask you to do something today.
Junior Brother Qianmu Fan has already told me about the matters between you two.
In your Great Wei, during your match, you indeed beat Junior Brother Qianmu Fan.
This matter should have made you thrilled and deeply memorable."
As Wen Ranran spoke.
But for Han, Qianmu Fan was just an exceptionally ordinary transient in his life.
After all these years, if he hadn’t come here, he wouldn’t even remember Qianmu Fan.
"Junior Brother Qianmu Fan has been brooding over losing to you all this time.
Since that day, he stopped playing chess and gave up the Chess Path he practiced for years.
Today, I came to find you.
It’s also to make you atone, to redeem the sin you caused back then.
If not for you, Junior Brother Qianmu Fan’s mind wouldn’t have a hindrance.
My third uncle also said recently.
Junior Brother Qianmu Fan has always had a shackle in his heart.
This shackle will constantly affect Junior Brother Qianmu Fan’s improvement in strength."
Wen Ranran paused here, looking at Han.
"Last night I thought carefully, coincidentally at the end of this month, it’s Junior Brother Qianmu Fan’s birthday.
After thinking it over and over, I want to use this opportunity to break the shackle that Junior Brother has always had in his heart.
If he’s always entangled by a heart disease, it would truly waste his exceptional talent."
As Wen Ranran spoke, Xing Yonghai also chimed in.
"What Senior Sister says makes sense. Why not take Han over tonight.
Let Senior Brother Qianmu vent his frustration.
If there’s resentment in his heart, he will feel better once he lets it out."
Hearing Xing Yonghai’s words, Wen Ranran didn’t agree.
"Junior Brother Qianmu Fan was mocked in front of others back then.
What truly hurt him was the sense of humiliation from being ridiculed and looked down upon.
But it wasn’t just that alone.
I want, on Junior Brother’s birthday, for Han and Junior Brother Qianmu Fan to have another match."
Wen Ranran looked at Han with a much more serious expression.
"Rest assured, this time going there isn’t about taking your life, it’s just to make you suffer some punishment.
Heaven’s truth will prevail. With your character and morals, it’s time you learned a lesson.
The most unbearable thing for him when you beat Junior Brother Qianmu Fan is that someone of such poor character as you could still have superior strength.
So this time, after you lose to Junior Brother Qianmu Fan, you must completely repent.
Repent thoroughly in front of Junior Brother, and show him that this world still values reason!"
