"As long as I drain you dry, this medicinal cauldron, I can enhance my aptitude and become a dazzling prodigy. It is a blessing from your previous life to die under a peony tonight..."
<...Soon, Fang Han quietly left the manor with a horse.
Tantai Qiuyue and Ye Qianqian changed their clothes in the bedroom and searched the entire manor and surrounding area, but they could not find Fang Han. The only corpses of the two armored water apes, one large and one small, were still on the meadow outside the manor.
Although the flesh and blood of a lord-level demon beast is not as precious as essence blood, it is still a great tonic for cultivators, as it can strengthen their qi and blood and enhance their physique.
In addition, although the flesh and blood of this mutated armored water ape are poisonous and inedible, they still have extremely high value.
For example, its hides can be used to make armor, and its bones and fangs can be used to forge weapons.
However, Tantai Qiuyue took Ye Qianqian back to the city directly, and she planned to leave the matter of dealing with the corpse of the alien armored water ape to her subordinates.
She no longer cared about this matter; she needed to find Fang Han as soon as possible.
Recently, demonic beasts have been appearing in the urban area of Tianyuan County. She wants to recruit powerful individuals like Fang Han to serve the Demon Suppression Division.
She felt that Fang Han was definitely not as simple as he appeared to be, a beginner martial artist.
She was very interested in Fang Han and wanted to see him again.
She was unaware that Fang Han had already planted a seed in her heart.
...
Fang Han rode a black horse at breakneck speed from the outskirts of the city, and after more than an hour, he had returned to Yanming City.
His current cultivation level is still low, far from being able to fly on a sword; for now, he can only ride a horse.
In this life, his father Fang Zhendong, mother Tang Yumei, and sister Fang Yingxue treated him very well.
During the three years he was mentally impaired, his three closest relatives had worried about him and sacrificed so much for him. He missed them terribly and wanted to see them as soon as possible before settling scores with the Zhao family.
After all, besides the Su family, the Zhao family also played an important role in his transformation into a medicine man.
Moreover, the Zhao family harbors ambitions to annex the Fang family.
As they approached the city gate, Fang Han noticed the conversation among the city defense soldiers on duty.
"Did you hear that? That idiot from the Fang family died in the Valley of Divine Healers. It's said that his condition worsened, he went mad and died, and fell off a cliff without a trace."
"That happened a few days ago. The news of her death came from the Su family. Su Qianyu was so young, yet she has become a widow living alone in an empty house. It's such a pity."
"The two are only engaged, how could she not remarry? I've heard that she's been flirting with Zhao Jian, the third young master of the Zhao family, and Wu Lei, the young master of the Wu family, the number one family in Yanming City."
"Is Su Qianyu juggling three relationships at the same time?"
"Fang Han's life has been worthwhile. It is said that after the great beauty Su Qianyu got engaged to him, she stayed with him day and night. He must have enjoyed the ultimate bliss."
"You're overthinking it. I heard that Fang Han hasn't even held Su Qianyu's hand. That idiot is really stupid. If I could marry such a beauty, I would definitely party every night and enjoy myself to the fullest."
"Old Hei, stop dreaming. A woman like Su Qianyu is beyond our reach. You're already in your thirties, you're destined to be a bachelor for life."
Although the soldiers were talking and laughing softly, Fang Han could hear them clearly. His hearing had greatly improved after becoming a beginner martial artist.
"If I had really been absorbed and refined to death by Su Qianyu last night, and Su Qianyu had become Zhao Jian or Wu Lei's woman, then I would have truly become a laughing stock for the rest of my life, and even my Fang family would have become a laughing stock."
"However, since I didn't die and even awakened my past life memories, I will let everyone in Yanming City know about Su Qianyu, the Su family, and the Zhao family. The Wu family is the real laughingstock. If the Su family doesn't come to my Fang family to apologize within three days, then don't blame me for being ruthless. If Zhao Jian and Wu Lei really have an affair with Su Qianyu, then they must also die!"
He certainly wouldn't bother with these soldiers; he simply took out a mask from his Azure Dragon Ring, put it on, and rode his horse quickly into the city.
He liked to wear this mask in his previous life, after all, as the famous Azure Dragon Sword Emperor, it was sometimes inconvenient for him to appear in public.
Now, in the eyes of the people of Yanming City, he is already a dead man, and wearing a mask can save him some trouble.
At least the few soldiers guarding the city gate didn't recognize that the imposing man riding into the city was the fool Fang Han they were talking about.
"The Fang family is not just going to lose Fang Han. When it rains, it pours. The Fang family is about to be finished."
"Old Hei, what inside information did you get?"
"This is no small matter. I have a childhood friend who is a high-level martial artist. He works for the Zhao family and works for the Third Young Master Zhao. Last night, he was drinking with me and said that today he is going to take people to acquire the Fang family's ancestral tomb land, and then he is going to get engaged to Su Qianyu."
"Really? The Zhao family is one of the three major families in Yanming City. Are they going to steal the Fang family's women, destroy the Fang family, and even desecrate their ancestral graves?!"
"Last night I also thought my childhood friend was drunk and talking nonsense, but before I came to the city gate to stand guard, I saw the third young master of the Zhao family leading a group of people, looking very aggressive, heading towards the Fang family's ancestral tomb."
As Fang Han was passing by the soldiers, he suddenly heard these explosive words.
"The Zhao family wants to harm the Fang family?"
"Zhao Ziyi, you call yourself a genius, yet you've done such a despicable thing as poisoning me. Your brother Zhao Jian dared to seduce Su Qianyu even before I publicly divorced her. You're courting death! Once I destroy your Zhao family, I'll come to the Dragon Abyss Sword Mansion to settle accounts with you. Not only the Dragon Abyss Sword Mansion, but even the Dragon Abyss Sword Sect behind it can't protect you!"
A murderous intent arose in Fang Han's heart, and he spurred his horse to hurry towards the Fang family's ancestral tomb.
Today he's going to go on a killing spree!
