Chapter 643: Chapter 623: You Still Have the Nerve to Read Here

Upon hearing the name Shen Han, Qianmu Fan immediately walked over from not far away.

"Senior Sister, what are you...?"

Qianmu Fan looked at Wen Ranran with some confusion in his eyes.

He didn’t understand why his own birthday celebration was connected to Shen Han.

Seeing Qianmu Fan staring at her, a hint of guilt appeared on Wen Ranran’s face.

"I originally wanted to surprise you, Junior Brother, but didn’t expect it to turn out this way...

That Shen Han truly is someone who doesn’t listen to advice."

Wen Ranran spoke softly.

Hearing this, Qianmu Fan seemed to guess what Wen Ranran intended.

"Senior Sister, I’ve already told you, I’ve let go of past matters.

You don’t need to be like this..."

Upon hearing this, Wen Ranran shook her head again.

"When you played chess with Third Grandfather before, he already noticed a shackle in your heart, Junior Brother.

With this shackle, your future cultivation will inevitably be affected.

Not to mention the future, even now, you have already been affected by this shackle.

Junior Brother, haven’t you noticed that you act too cautiously, lacking the vigor of other young peers?"

Hearing this, Qianmu Fan truly thought about it carefully.

It did seem to be the case.

Ever since losing to Shen Han back then, Qianmu Fan’s chess paths have become increasingly steady.

Steady in chess, steady in actions, steady in everything.

He liked to retreat half a step in everything, completely lacking the vigor of people his age.

Seeking steadiness avoids mistakes, but because of over-caution, Qianmu Fan has lost countless opportunities.

Frankly, Qianmu Fan was somewhat moved.

The people around, especially those close to Wen Ranran, started to coax.

Saying the two were a suitable match.

Seeing the atmosphere seemingly ease a lot, Xing Yonghai felt as if he had dodged a bullet from the side.

The panic on his face greatly subsided.

"Originally, I thought of putting Shen Han into a wooden box and sending it to you as a gift, Junior Brother.

Taking advantage of today’s banquet, you could compete with him once more.

Defeat him with your own hands and completely sever the shackle in your heart.

You once said that someone of low character like him, whose ability grows stronger than yours, made you feel heaven’s way is unfair.

So this time, let you see for yourself, Junior Brother.

Heaven’s way is evident; someone of such low character as Shen Han will sooner or later be surpassed by you."

Although the gift wasn’t sent, these words alone were already profound.

Others around would sigh at Wen Ranran’s thoughtfulness.

Even someone as scheming as Qianmu Fan couldn’t help but be moved.

"With your intentions, Senior Sister, I am already content.

As for the duel with Shen Han, it’s merely secondary."

When Qianmu Fan finished speaking, Wen Ranran shook her head again.

"Don’t worry, Junior Brother, I will bring him out.

The shackle in your heart, Junior Brother, I will definitely have it removed!"

After she said that, Wen Ranran’s gaze turned to Xing Yonghai.

"Continue searching for Shen Han, no matter what, bring him out.

If he’s already left Five Immortals City, notify me if there are any clues, and I will arrange for someone to pursue."

After Wen Ranran finished speaking, Xing Yonghai was called away.

After all, as an Outer Sect disciple, Xing Yonghai, by right, didn’t even qualify to observe this banquet for direct disciples.

The banquet officially began.

Qianmu Fan was quite eloquent, and with his words, he handled all the different powers quite well.

The whole banquet was joyful and harmonious.

But everyone could see that, as expected, Qianmu Fan would most likely choose Wen Ranran’s side.

There was mutual intention, and the Wen Family where Wen Ranran belonged had considerable influence in Five Immortals City.

The banquet continued from morning until evening.

.bg-ssp-10081{margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;display:flex;justify-content:center;}

The young attendees were either direct disciples or descendants of certain elders.

The young were exchanging cultivation methods.

Not far away, the elders watched the exchanges and conversations.

When Qianmu Fan heard some insights, he would also try his hand.

His attempts further demonstrated his exceptional talent.

The new cultivation system, although unlocking several shackles was important,

still relied on one’s insight and ability to easily grasp the techniques.

Qianmu Fan’s performance was indeed admirable.

Not only did he unravel seven shackles,

he showed great insight in cultivating techniques.

Today’s birthday celebration, Qianmu Fan’s performance was nearly perfect.

He didn’t display the arrogance of those geniuses, and his talent was no less impressive than others.

After dinner, the group of young people invited each other to stroll by candlelight, enjoying themselves thoroughly.

Today’s birthday celebration, Qianmu Fan felt it was the most enjoyable he had in many years.

After all, previously, he had never been so valued.

If he had time, he would like to return to Great Wei.

To meet those people from the past.

Now, he truly looked forward to a match with Shen Han.

Just as Wen Ranran said, he indeed was somewhat overly steady.

Perhaps after a real match with Shen Han, the heart demon of that shackle might disappear forever.

After the banquet ended, the courtyard gradually returned to peace.

Wen Ranran had someone call Xing Yonghai over again and gave him a Sound Transmission Jade in front of Qianmu Fan.

As soon as you get news of Shen Han, immediately send a sound transmission to her.

Today we didn’t find Shen Han; it’s possible Shen Han has already escaped from Five Immortals City.

But the Southern Heaven Continent is vast.

Other cities may be a bit far, and if there’s no suitable destination, Shen Han might still come back.

"In hindsight, you should have sparred with Shen Han earlier, Junior Brother.

Now that he knows we intend to make a move against him, he’s probably too afraid to show himself."

Wen Ranran said, then looked at Xing Yonghai.

"You lost the person, and if you can’t find Shen Han,

not only will you get no rewards, but you’d better prepare for punishment yourself."

Wen Ranran, being a lofty direct disciple, naturally punishes others if things go wrong.

Xing Yonghai didn’t dare to say anything, just nodded and agreed, saying he would definitely find Shen Han.

On the way back, the more Xing Yonghai thought about it, the angrier he became.

He regretted being too polite to Shen Han at the beginning.

He regretted being too foolish in the Book Collection Pavilion at the time, why didn’t he think to check the basement.

Blamed himself for not remembering that there was also a basement in the Book Collection Pavilion where old methods were stored.

Arriving at the bamboo house, Xing Yonghai went to the room where Shen Han lived.

The room was empty, with nothing extra inside.

Thinking he might be punished, Xing Yonghai directly called out all the servant disciples.

In the courtyard, hundreds of servant disciples were forced to kneel by him.

"Kneel there! If that bastard Shen Han doesn’t come back, you bastards don’t get up either.

I said, if you make my Xing Yonghai’s life difficult,

I, Xing, will definitely make your lives miserable.

If he doesn’t come back, you just keep kneeling."

Hearing this, some wanted to argue, wanted to explain.

But before they could speak, they were slapped directly.

A group of servant disciples was speechless in their hearts.

They weren’t close to Shen Han.

Moreover, all they ever thought was to see Shen Han suffer and fall from grace.

They weren’t friends with Shen Han at all...

But Xing Yonghai wouldn’t listen to this; he needed a place to vent his anger.

"I advise you, if you know anything, say it immediately.

If you refuse to speak, just keep kneeling."

Xing Yonghai’s threat was completely baseless.

These servant disciples also wanted to betray Shen Han, but they weren’t close to him, and their relationship was bad.

Knowing they are kneeling like this, there’s a chance Shen Han would come back even later.

In the tavern room.

When Shen Han came back to his senses, the sky outside had darkened again.

Trying to move from intention to the way is not something that can be comprehended overnight.

Even after understanding the "Great Tao Fusion Technique," it truly requires sufficient time.

Moreover, this old cultivation system also affects the cultivator’s physique.

Body strength and vital energy aren’t enough.

Unable to bear the might of the realm.

Even if one understands the way within, as it falls upon them, it would just crush the cultivator’s body.

Like my current Third Grade Immortal Realm body, if the physique hasn’t advanced to meet the requirements of the Second Grade Realm,

it’s simply impossible to step into Second Grade.

Comparatively, the new cultivation system in the Southern Heaven Continent does indeed have a superior speed of cultivation.

Just need to draw on the momentum of heaven and earth and use the creation of heaven and earth to enhance oneself.

By borrowing more of the momentum of heaven and earth, naturally, one’s strength and realm are also heightened.

After spending another night, Shen Han finally came out of the tavern.

Upon exit, Shen Han headed toward the Book Collection Pavilion.

In the Thick Earth Tower’s Book Collection Pavilion, in the basement, there must be more texts worth studying.

Whenever he has time, Shen Han would still go in to try his luck.

Without hiding from anyone, Shen Han appeared openly.

The outer sect disciple who had been monitoring Shen Han was still standing at the entrance of the Book Collection Pavilion.

He felt somewhat remorseful, unable to even keep track of a servant disciple.

And right before his eyes, Shen Han walked inside again.

Over at the bamboo house.

The servant disciples who had knelt for a whole night, some had already fainted.

Some of them had just completed Washing Marrow, and in the Dawn Realm, there wasn’t much difference from ordinary people.

Xing Yonghai actually thought Shen Han had already fled long ago.

Having left Five Immortals City, he shouldn’t dare come back.

Yet Shen Han brazenly appeared again.

Upon receiving the news, Xing Yonghai found two servant disciples, having them bring Shen Han back.

And when returning, they were to strip their attire, leaving only a piece of cloth for modesty.

Not to walk, but to crawl to the bamboo house.

The two instructed servant disciples quickly ran toward the Book Collection Pavilion.

They had been kneeling for over a day.

The grievance in their hearts toward Shen Han had surpassed the mountains and seas.

They didn’t hate Xing Yonghai for bullying them.

They only resented Shen Han not coming back to be punished, resulting in them being the ones penalized.

Soon, the two walked into the Book Collection Pavilion, directly heading to the basement.

Upon seeing Shen Han, the anger of the two servant disciples spiked to the peak.

"You still have the nerve to read here? Do you know how many people are punished because of you?"
