Therefore, Wang Muxue and the Feng family will definitely have to stay in Yanming City for a few more days before leaving.

...

Under the cover of night, Fang Han rode his sword and sped towards the Fang family's location.

The Xuan Tie sword gleamed with a cold, eerie light beneath his feet, piercing the silence of the night and leaving behind fleeting trails.

Because he flew quite high, no one in Yanming City could detect that he was flying on his sword.

But before he could bring the Xuan Tie Sword down, he saw a streak of light rushing toward the Fang family's direction.

"Is there an expert?"

Fang Han felt a chill run down his spine, his gaze sharpening instantly piercing through the essence of the flowing light. This was definitely not a natural phenomenon, but rather someone else traveling on a sword.

In this small city of Yanming, there are very few people who can wield a sword; besides him, there are almost no others.

A strange sense of vigilance welled up in Fang Han's heart, and he quickly concealed his aura, as if he had become one with the night.

He wanted to see who this visitor was, especially since it was so late at night.

The next moment, the person riding the sword landed gracefully at the entrance of the Fang family mansion, her figure elegant, like a fairy descending to earth.

When she turned around, Fang Han could see clearly that she was a woman of unparalleled beauty. She was none other than Chen Tingxue, the sect leader of the Wuji Sect.

"This woman has finally arrived. Otherwise, I would have really had to make a trip to the Wuji Sect myself."

Fang Han's heart stirred, and he landed on his sword in front of Chen Tingxue.

Recalling their last encounter, Chen Tingxue, along with her master, the White-browed Elder, received the news from Ouyang Yan and rushed to the summit of Yin-Yang Mountain in an attempt to seize the Yin-Yang Tree and the Yin-Yang Fruit.

However, she ended up trapped in the formation set up by Fang Han and Xiang Wantang, and in a one-on-one fight, Chen Tingxue also lost to Fang Han.

Fang Han and Xiang Wantang could have easily killed Chen Tingxue and Bai Mei if they had joined forces, but he didn't. Instead, he let them go.

Chen Tingxue and Bai Mei also agreed to Fang Han's request to keep the news about the Yin-Yang Tree a secret and to investigate Ouyang Yan's whereabouts.

"Mr. Fang, how did you know I was here?"

When Chen Tingxue saw Fang Han suddenly appear in front of her, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"I was just coming back from running some errands when I unexpectedly ran into you."

Fang Han said.

"Mr. Fang, I came here specifically to apologize to you."

Chen Tingxue gracefully bowed to Fang Han and said, "After my master, Elder Bai Mei, and I returned to the Wuji Sect, we discovered that Ouyang Yan had already fled. As you suggested, we did not harm Su Chun, an outer disciple, but instead searched for Ouyang Yan's whereabouts while secretly monitoring Su Chun. Unfortunately, after some time, we have found nothing."

"This woman, Ouyang Yan, is indeed cunning, as expected of the Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect who has been hiding since she was a few years old."

Upon hearing this, Fang Han frowned slightly, but did not show much surprise.

After all, Ouyang Yan has an extremely strong ability to predict danger; once she senses danger, she will immediately disappear without a trace.

He recalled the last time he used "Red Sleeve" to send a message to Ouyang Yan, cleverly making her believe that she had been captured by "Red Sleeve" and even refined into a pill, which tricked this cunning woman back to the Hehuan Sect's cave in Yin Yang Mountain.

However, because his cultivation level was still low at the time, only a high-level Martial Grandmaster, he could only severely injure Ouyang Yan and was unable to capture her.

"Yes, this guy's ability to use others to do his dirty work is truly astonishing."

Chen Tingxue couldn't help but sigh, "If it weren't for Mr. Fang's benevolence, my master, Elder Bai Mei, and I would have perished on the summit of Yin Yang Mountain long ago."

"This person is not only cunning, but also adept at scheming. I'm quite looking forward to seeing what other tricks she has up her sleeve."

Fang Han's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

"Mr. Fang, please let me know if you need any assistance."

As Chen Tingxue spoke, she took out a crystal-clear jade pendant from her person and handed it to Fang Han. "It will take quite a while for the bluebird to deliver the training here, but as long as you crush this jade pendant, I will receive the news and rush here immediately."

"good."

Fang Han took the jade pendant and felt the faint spiritual energy fluctuations contained within it. He couldn't help but feel more appreciative of Chen Tingxue's sincerity.

At least this woman's integrity is not in question.

Of course, this might also be because of his strength, which is why Chen Tingxue was so proactive in capturing Ouyang Yan. In addition, she and her master, the White-browed Elder, were used by Ouyang Yan, and her intense hatred for this woman must also be one of the reasons.

"Mr. Fang, I'm already at your doorstep, aren't you going to invite me in for a cup of tea?"

Just as Fang Han was about to see the guest off, Chen Tingxue suddenly spoke.

Chen Tingxue, a woman renowned throughout Tianyuan County and arguably the most powerful, now revealed a desire to get closer to Fang Han.

She tilted her head slightly, her eyes sparkling with an indescribable brilliance. As she spoke, a hint of girlish shyness appeared on her face, like a peach blossom just beginning to bloom in spring, carrying a touch of bashfulness and anticipation.
