Chapter 876: Chapter 773: Dealing with Elder Jiang, Return to Southern Heaven Continent (2)
"Moreover, their power is limited, and it might be difficult to force so many people to come under pressure and intimidation."
As Shen Han spoke, the uncle from the Yun Family by his side kept poking Shen Han’s back with his finger.
He didn’t disbelieve Shen Han’s words; it was just that these things should not be said here.
After finishing his statement, Elder Jiang’s expression hasn’t changed; he still maintains a righteous demeanor.
Even his tone of speech remains consistent.
"Young people are always young people, unable to stay calm when faced with troubles.
Thinking they are on the side of justice, hence they feel victory is certain.
Unfortunately, what use is there even if you’ve guessed all these?
Once you are dead, all this information will be buried again.
But you can rest assured on one point: I’ll find a way to secure a good reputation for you.
You, uncle and nephew, have died for the sake of the entire Southern Heaven Continent, dying with due dignity, leaving a name in history."
Elder Jiang continues to act righteous, and his cultivated facade indeed performs well.
"Originally, according to your Medicine-Refining Technique, I was willing to spare your life. But unfortunately, your nephew insists on taking you along.
Additionally, allow me to inform you that the person in the Immortal Realm, his power is actually a notch lower than mine."
The uncle from the Yun Family steps forward slightly, seeming to clutch a Magical Artifact in his hand.
His gaze constantly signaling to Shen Han, but Shen Han appears not to notice his hints.
"Stop those petty tricks; they’re useless, Master Yun.
Your strength is far inferior to mine, the gap is insurmountably large.
Not to mention you two insignificant individuals, even the strongest in the Southern Heaven Continent would struggle to defeat me.
There’s no need for pleading for mercy; your nephew’s power is mediocre, but his cultivation path hides his true capabilities well.
Even if he strikes, he would not be my match.
Yet, this ability to easily conceal oneself, and the fact that he knows so much about me, indeed means he cannot be allowed to live."
These words completely block the uncle from the Yun Family from speaking further.
He’s determined to act today.
Looking at Shen Han, the uncle from the Yun Family’s face is filled with self-blame.
"The pain will only be momentary. Master Yun, you have refined Pills for me for many years, consider this compensation for you and your nephew."
Speaking between these words, Elder Jiang prepares to make a move.
He seems to have suffered injuries, as his past strength must have exceeded the Illusion Realm.
But now, he has fallen to the Illusion Realm.
Elder Jiang presumably prides himself on having once surpassed the Southern Heaven Continent in Realm, hence he feels invincible in this part of the world.
Suddenly, within the confined space, a surge of oppressive power rushes towards Shen Han and the uncle.
It seems that even the surrounding mountains begin to press towards the center.
Elder Jiang’s expression remains indifferent, believing this move is enough to extinguish the two.
Shen Han merely glances at him, and instantly everything returns to normal.
Primordial Qi suppresses everything.
The earlier oppressive momentum disappears entirely in an instant.
Elder Jiang furrows his brows slightly, a bit unable to react to the sight before him.
He thought it was due to the effects of his own injuries.
But when he tries to strike again, he discovers his own power has vanished in an instant.
Clearly a strong Illusion Realm Peak, yet now he feels like a mere mortal, absolutely powerless.
With a wave of his hand, Shen Han sends Elder Jiang, who bragged about his prowess, like a sandbag crashing into a wall nearby.
His strength, such a collision should result in wall breakage, while he remains unscathed.
But at this moment, Elder Jiang only feels immense body pain.
The wall, on the contrary, shows no issue at all.
Shen Han reveals a long sword in his hand, strides forward.
The sword’s edge falls on Elder Jiang’s brow, an overwhelming sense of fear descends.
Elder Jiang feels he might perish here.
Attempting resistance, even at risk of backlash, he pays no regard to these concerns now.
Yet, under Shen Han’s Primordial Qi, Elder Jiang is nothing but a mortal, utterly incapable of resisting.
No matter how he tries, he cannot exert even a bit.
In this moment, he truly fears, the righteous facade he previously held all gone, panic fills his expression.
"If I die, the Immortal Realm will surely learn of Southern Heaven Continent’s existence.
If I die, you won’t survive either."
Still stubbornly uttering arrogant words.
"Rest assured, the cracked seam has long been sealed up; even if discovered, it doesn’t matter.
Besides, keeping you alive doesn’t mean Southern Heaven Continent’s location won’t be exposed.
Your survival would rather be more likely to draw Immortal Realm people here for revenge."
Shen Han softly explains to him, and hearing these words, fear fills Elder Jiang’s heart more.
He tries to speak more, but his chest has already been pierced by Shen Han’s sword edge.
The next moment, his body begins to be corroded by Poison Skill.
Watching his astonished uncle, Shen Han smiles, inviting him to leave Chaomu Mountain west side together.
Leaving from there, uncle seems dazed the entire journey, yet to recover.
Sitting on the ship, it takes over one two-hour period for uncle to feel better.
He gazes at Shen Han’s face, hesitating to speak.
Seeing his uncle uncertain of what to say, Shen Han instead takes the lead.
He shares the experiences faced over the years one by one with his uncle.
During these years, the Yun Family too experienced quite a lot.
Under You Wanying’s command, many Yun Family members had their lives taken.
These significant upheavals also move the uncle of the Yun Family.
He never imagined the Yun Family would face such a calamity, but fortunately, his immediate family is intact.
However, many Yun Family relatives perished in the disaster.
Flying towards the residence, the journey is still far.
The uncle of the Yun Family has many questions, Shen Han answers them one by one.
When mentioning his own strength, Shen Han frankly admits he has stepped into the First Grade.
The uncle of the Yun Family is somewhat surprised but has made some estimations in his heart.
After all, Shen Han slew that Elder Jiang in front of him.
Yet, the uncle of the Yun Family seems not to fully understand the First Grade.
He seems to equate First-Grade Immortal’s power directly with Illusion Realm.
Shen Han doesn’t bother to explain further, as these matters don’t really hurt.
The uncle is not one to pursue the Martial Path; a rough understanding suffices.
After twenty days of travel, Shen Han and his uncle finally return home.
Seeing her brother return safely, Yun Shuang’s eyes well up with tears, embracing him directly.
Compared to when they left home, uncle from the Yun Family has visibly aged significantly.
At the mansion, preparations began once Shen Han sent a message.
Tonight’s feast is especially grand.
Shen Han leads Shi Yuezhu to pay respects to their uncle.
At the time of marriage, their uncle was not home.
Thus, this serves as a courtesy of informing an elder.
Gathered around, everyone shares their experiences over the years, asking about how uncle has been during those years.
The feast lasted nearly three two-hour periods, almost reaching midnight.
Uncle must not have eaten such delicacies for a long time, his appetite is excellent.
Seeing him like this, Yun Shuang could not help but shed more tears.
Her brother was once picky about food.
No one knows how much he suffered to become as he is today.
After the evening meal, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu returned to their small courtyard.
The uncle and others naturally have much more to discuss.
Entering the house, Shi Yuezhu gently wraps her arms around Shen Han’s waist, her exquisite face resting on Shen Han’s chest.
"I’ve stepped into the First Grade."
Shen Han too embraces Shi Yuezhu’s waist, whispering softly in her ear.
Hearing this, Shi Yuezhu pauses briefly.
First Grade Realm, a Realm only existent in legends, is truly attainable.
"In the future, those dangers will no longer exist.
We won’t have to be separated repeatedly; we can live wherever we choose."
Shen Han speaks softly, envisioning future aspirations.
Beside him, Shi Yuezhu’s eyes also carry a gentle warmth.
Only in her reflections, her gaze carries some concern.
"Recently, Xilan returned briefly.
She heard that You Wanying seems to have found backing again, a very powerful sect.
Perhaps, there may be additional trouble..."
