In just half a day, Shen Yunhao reappeared in front of the Shen residence.
Copper Skin Realm's physical fitness far surpasses that of ordinary people. He can run non-stop for several hours without feeling tired at all.
Looking at the Shen family's gate, which was exactly the same as before, Shen Yunhao sighed softly.
Over the past four months, the Shen family has long since accepted the fact that Shen Yunhao has disappeared.
They were initially worried about incurring Ning Yuyao's wrath, but after getting through the initial period of fear and anxiety, the Shen family gradually returned to normal operation.
Indeed, Ning Yuyao has not returned in the past four months.
This was something Shen Yunhao had found out from elsewhere, while concealing his appearance...
He does not show his true face to the public now.
There are two reasons.
Firstly, he didn't want the people in the Shen family to know he had returned, because no matter how they reacted, it would only cause Shen Yunhao more trouble.
As for Ning Yuyao's whereabouts, he could find out on his own, or even go to the Guanghan Palace to look for her... There was no need to make a fuss in Linyuan City.
Shen Yunhao naturally heard that Zhao Qingyuan, the city lord of Linyuan, had personally ordered a search for him, and his sense of indebtedness to Ning Yuyao deepened even further.
As for the second reason... it's naturally because of the mastermind hiding in the shadows.
Since the other side dared to risk offending the Moon Palace and forcibly attack me, they must be no small fry.
However, given my shallow cultivation level, rashly appearing in the open would easily make me a target for the other party again.
Of course, he has no intention of investigating who the real culprit is right now.
The city lord's manpower and resources have been mobilized so much but they still haven't been able to find anything. I'm all alone and I'm not strong enough to take this risk.
As long as that person remains in the shadows, as long as that person still wants to kill me, I will always have a chance to take revenge once I become truly powerful.
His return to the Shen residence was solely to retrieve some items, including a few spirit stones that Ning Yuyao might have left for him...
He went to a spot on the side wall of the mansion, found an opportunity when no one was around, and leaped up.
He easily leaped over the four- or five-meter-high wall.
This is the benefit of cultivation. For an ordinary martial artist to reach this level, it would take countless years of arduous training...
As for Shen Yunhao, not counting the previous eighteen years of freeloading, it's only been four months at most.
Having grown up in the Shen family mansion, Shen Yunhao was naturally very familiar with the internal structure of the Shen family. He easily bypassed the servants and arrived at his own courtyard.
The courtyard was fairly tidy, with signs of having been swept, but it was now completely deserted.
Shen Yunhao went straight back to his room and observed for a week. He was relieved to find that no one had touched his things.
The kidnapping happened so suddenly that he had absolutely no time to prepare.
After rummaging around for a while, he found the small box that Ning Yuyao had left for him in the cabinet.
The "Returning to Origin Breathing Technique" and the small silk bag are still inside, and the shapes of the two stones can still be seen in the bag.
"If I remember correctly, there were indeed two pieces..."
He picked up the small bag, weighed it in his hand for a moment, and then opened it.
But then a colorful ray of light emanated from the bag, which was quite dazzling.
"This is?"
Shen Yunhao took out two crystal-clear oval stones from his bag, each about half the size of a fist. The brilliance emanated from these two stones.
"These are spirit stones? Why are they different from what Sister Li'er described? Aren't spirit stones usually milky white? Why are these two colorful?"
Little did they know, a slender white snake on the eaves not far away suddenly twitched, its eyes filled with shock.
"It's a top-grade spirit stone! How come I didn't think of that before!"
"That little girl is really generous. Even among the disciples of the Moon Palace, there probably aren't many of these..."
Indeed, in addition to producing ordinary spirit stones, there is a very small chance of producing this kind of top-grade spirit stone rich in spiritual energy in the Spirit Mountain!
The total spiritual energy contained in a top-grade spirit stone is equivalent to one thousand to several thousand ordinary spirit stones. It is not only used as a high-level currency in the cultivation world, but can also be used to break through realms during long periods of seclusion in cultivation.
However, these top-grade spirit stones can only be produced in spirit mountains. They are naturally formed and have an extremely low probability of being produced. It often takes two to three years for a spirit mountain of average quality to produce one such stone, so they are very rare on the market.
Unexpectedly, Ning Yuyao directly gave her to this cheap husband...
Even the White Dragon was envious.
"Although this top-grade spirit stone is nothing to me, the fact that she gifted it to me shows that she trusts Yun Hao to embark on the path of cultivation and that he has considerable potential..."
"But is the potential gained at such a cost really worth it?"
Shen Yunhao naturally didn't recognize top-grade spirit stones, but he could sense the abundant spiritual power within them. After playing with them for a while, he frowned and said, "It feels like a rare item. Should we go back and ask Sister Li'er what it is?"
The little white dragon in the shadows nodded frantically.
"That's right, that's right! A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. If you were to casually show this top-grade spirit stone to anyone as an ordinary spirit stone, the loss would be a minor matter, but if it were to lead to your death, then the loss would not outweigh the gain..."
Although Zhu Li was secretly escorting him, she didn't want to see Shen Yunhao encounter an accident so early, forcing her to reveal herself prematurely...
If Shen Yunhao were to return to Tianyuan now, he could naturally explain all this to him and remind him of the principle of not flaunting wealth...
"Forget it! I won't trouble Sister Li'er..." Shen Yunhao chuckled and shook his head: "Going back so soon after going out would make me look useless, wouldn't it?"
"..."
The white dragon sighed.
