Chapter 823: Chapter 747: The Marriage Ritual
Snowfield City.
The person Shen Han is planning to meet this time is the scout introduced by Elder Sizhi.
According to Elder Sizhi, this person’s body technique can surpass those in the Illusion Realm.
He was born to be a scout.
Originally, this person was very proud, usually other people would go to see him.
But this time, he came to see Shen Han, and he initiated the meeting.
The reason behind this is naturally the Pills from Qilin Valley.
Elder Sizhi just mentioned that the Pills acquired by Five Immortals City were all related to Shen Han.
This alone made people come voluntarily.
Snowfield Tavern’s private room.
Going at the agreed time, Shen Han arrived a bit early.
After sitting in the private room for a while, an old man sauntered in.
"Excuse me, are you Little Friend Shen Han?"
"Senior."
Upon seeing the visitor, Shen Han immediately stood up and bowed.
People coming from Great Wei seem to retain the habit of knowing etiquette.
In social exchanges, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.
"I’ve heard long ago that a young talent has come to the Southern Heaven Continent, even You Wanying suffered under your hands."
The old man had a slight smile on his face, and he began with a compliment to Shen Han.
"Senior, you overpraise me. Facing the villain You Wanying, it was a helpless act for me.
Danger follows, life worries, not daring to pause even slightly.
Fortunately, I obtained some opportunities, able to somewhat resist."
"You are humble indeed, to say you can only somewhat resist.
But you have wounded You Wanying.
Being able to wound an Illusion Realm strong person, you are far stronger than this old man."
Shen Han humbly responded, having the tavern serve the wine and dishes.
Only then came the main topic.
"I reckon Little Friend doesn’t know the old man’s name yet, Sizhi knows the rules, we people who do scouting have many false names outside.
Little Friend, call me Old Man Daquan."
"Senior, you flatter me...
Your reputation in the information network, many Illusion Realm strong persons are far below you."
Shen Han’s words remained pleasing, making Elder Daquan smile even more.
No matter what’s said, people like to hear pleasant words.
"Additionally, Elder Sizhi mentioned that Senior Daquan seems to have some persistent injuries.
I have an Assist Star Blood Returning Pill here, hoping to lend Senior a hand."
As he spoke, Shen Han also took out an Assist Star Pill.
As soon as Elder Daquan saw the Pill, his eyes lit up.
One could even sense his body leaning forward slightly.
This Pill had a considerable allure to him.
However, the impulse only lasted for a moment before Senior Daquan contained it.
"You keep the Pill, Sizhi already gave the old man an Assist Star Pill.
This time’s information, the old man previously agreed as well, one Assist Star Pill.
Whatever it is, the old man wants just that."
Upon hearing this, Shen Han still pushed the Pill toward Elder Daquan.
"This Pill was prepared for Senior, having it on me is just a waste.
If Senior feels uneasy, consider it advance compensation for future assistance."
Hearing Shen Han’s words, Elder Daquan finally accepted the Pill.
In his heart, he indeed desired these Pills.
The two tasted the tavern’s dishes.
Shen Han didn’t actively inquire, but Elder Daquan knew he should talk about serious matters.
"To be honest, Little Friend, this time inquiring about information did exhaust a lot of my energy.
The environment in Chaomu Mountain is quite complex.
The old man originally thought he had a decent understanding of Chaomu Mountain, but this time, encountered many troubles."
Elder Daquan paused, and his gaze gradually turned serious.
"It’s not that the old man exaggerates, but this time venturing into Chaomu Mountain, I indeed witnessed some peculiarities.
The southwestern side of Chaomu Mountain, the old man always thought only loose cultivators lived there.
But this time, I stumbled upon a mysterious sect force."
Elder Daquan has traversed the Southern Heaven Continent for years, in terms of knowledge and experience, he definitely doesn’t lose to others.
If he calls something mysterious, attention is certainly warranted.
"This mysterious sect force, anyone seems to have power above the Rainbow-Devouring Realm.
Even servants and followers appear to possess such capabilities.
The old man boldly ventured deeper, regretted afterward.
The southwestern side of Chaomu Mountain has a huge cave.
It’s called a cave, but it’s more like a high mountain emptied in the middle.
Passing through this cave leads to another world, very vast.
I hid inside for several days, only then making some discoveries.
The person you are looking for seems to be constrained, working for people of that world.
Life is safe, but there’s some suffering."
As he spoke, Elder Daquan also pulled out a portrait.
"Little Friend, see this, it’s a record drawn by the old man based on what he saw that day.
If it’s not mistaken, it’s this person."
On the portrait, a middle-aged man’s expression is weary, as if his spirit has been exhausted.
Elder Daquan’s drawing skill was excellent, Shen Han could clearly see the features, this was his uncle.
Compared to his former grandeur in Great Wei, his uncle now looked even older than his grandfather...
"Little Friend, the southwestern side of Chaomu Mountain is extremely dangerous, avoid taking risks.
The old man’s skills in other areas are lacking, but in escaping, he has some abilities.
Through these years, I’ve basically remained uninjured.
