Chapter 131: Plans for the Imperial Capital
After the atmosphere returned to normal and the laughter caused by Zhang Wei’s mistake gradually subsided, Han Nian patted the middle-aged man on the shoulder and said casually,“Uncle Zhang, actually, I didn’t come here just to take a walk around or check on the restaurant. I brought something else for you, so it’s better if we head to the storage room first.”Hearing that, Zhang Wei immediately developed a bad feeling about his heart.He had known Han Nian long enough to understand that whenever the young man said he had brought “something,” that “something” usually had the power to make people lose the ability to think normally.Even so, he nodded and led everyone toward the largest storage warehouse behind the restaurant.As they walked, he asked in confusion,“Young Master Han, isn’t the stock of Grade Three Spirit Beast meat you provided before still abundant? Even at the current rate of sales, it should last for several more months. Why have you brought more?”Han Nian merely s
Chapter 132: Returning to Sweet Blossom City
After returning to the Lin Clan residence, Han Nian immediately spotted Han Tian practicing swordsmanship in the backyard.Occasional flashes of sword light could be seen cutting through the air, while several Lin Clan members passing by intentionally stopped to watch the training session.Han Nian stood with his arms crossed over his chest and waited until his brother finished a complete sequence of movements before speaking casually,“Brother, I’m planning to return to Sweet Blossom City tomorrow. It’s been quite a long time since we last visited Father and Mother. Besides, after all this chaos, I’m sure they must miss us a lot.”Han Tian immediately sheathed his sword and nodded without the slightest hesitation.A faint smile appeared on his face as he replied,“I’ve been thinking the same thing. We’ve stayed in Fragrant Pandan City for far too long. If you’re going back, then of course I’m coming too. Father will probably beat us if he finds out his sons have been running all over
Chapter 133: Returning to the Warmth of Family
As soon as Lei Ying landed majestically in the Han Clan courtyard and puffed out his chest like a king returning from the battlefield, the members of the Han Clan quickly gathered around.But the fastest to appear were naturally Han Sheng and An Ying.The two had already received news that Han Nian and Han Tian would be returning today. Since early morning, they had gone in and out of the courtyard several times just to check whether their sons had arrived yet.An Ying’s eyes immediately reddened when she saw the two young men standing before Lei Ying.Without caring about anyone else’s gaze, she hurried toward them.“Tian’er, Han’er, you’ve finally come back. Mother has missed both of you so much. Every day, I kept wondering whether you were eating well, whether you had been injured, and whether you were taking proper care of yourselves. Now that I can see you standing before me healthy and safe, my heart can finally be at peace.”While speaking at length, An Ying immediately pulled
Chapter 134: The Princess's Banquet
After the welcoming atmosphere settled down somewhat, Han Nian continued with the introductions.Pointing toward Jia Xialan, who stood gracefully beside him, he said casually,“Father, Mother, this is Jia Xialan, a Princess of the Empire. As for the person standing beside her, he is her guard who accompanies her wherever she goes.”The moment those words were spoken, an elderly man who had been observing from a distance immediately stepped forward.His expression became serious.He was Han Changyi, the current Patriarch of the Han Clan.Without hesitation, he bowed respectfully and said,“Greetings, Your Highness the Princess. Your presence in our humble Han Clan is truly an honor we never imagined receiving.”Upon seeing the Patriarch bow, Han Sheng, An Ying, and the other members of the Han Clan were all startled.They had never expected that the beautiful young woman who arrived alongside Han Nian possessed such a lofty status.Within moments, everyone bowed in respect.Jia Xialan,
Chapter 135: The Monster's Advice
Just as Han Nian was about to leave the treasury room with Patriarch Han Changyi, the old man suddenly stopped him.His expression was complicated, filled with guilt that had weighed on him for a long time. After staring at Han Nian for several moments, he finally let out a long sigh and spoke in a slightly trembling voice."Nian'er, there is one thing that has kept me from sleeping peacefully all this time. Back then, when your talent had yet to reveal itself, many members of the Han Clan ostracized you. Some even openly insulted you and called you trash. As Patriarch, although I never joined in mocking you, I also failed to stop it firmly enough. Now, seeing you become the pillar of the clan, seeing you continuously give without asking for anything in return, I feel deeply ashamed and regretful."Han Nian merely smiled faintly upon hearing the confession.There was neither anger nor resentment on his face.Instead, he casually patted Patriarch Han Changyi's shoulder and said,"Patri
Chapter 136: A Performance in the Sky
“Mwah!”Without the slightest hesitation, the innocent Yanyan immediately kissed Han Nian on the cheek with a loud smack that could be heard from several nearby tables.The little girl then laughed cheerfully while holding onto Han Nian’s shoulders, showing not the slightest bit of embarrassment.Seeing this, Han Nian laughed in satisfaction like someone who had just won a grand prize. He gently patted Yanyan’s head before asking in a mysterious tone,“Then, does the beautiful and brave Yanyan want to experience what it feels like to fly through the sky with Big Brother Nian?”Yanyan’s eyes immediately sparkled like stars.She jumped up and down on the spot while raising both hands high into the air.“Yes! Yes! Of course I do! Yanyan wants to fly! Yanyan wants to ride that big Purple Lightning Eagle! Even though its face is ugly and fierce-looking, Yanyan still wants to!” she shouted excitedly while pointing toward Lei Ying, who was resting outside the hall.Hearing that, Lei Ying imm
Chapter 137: A Gift for Yanyan
“Yayyy! Big Brother Nian is amazing! Very, very amazing! When Yanyan grows up, Yanyan also wants to become as amazing as Big Brother Nian, able to fly through the sky alone, use a sword that can split the clouds, and protect everyone like Big Brother does!” Yanyan shouted loudly while clapping nonstop.Her tiny face was flushed red from excitement, while her eyes sparkled with admiration.It was the little girl’s voice that finally snapped everyone out of their shock after witnessing Han Nian’s terrifying performance in the sky.Han Changyi, who stood not far away, coughed several times while staring at the buildings that had partially turned into rubble.The elders of the Han Clan were not much different.Some rubbed their chests.Some stroked their beards with trembling hands.There were even some who still stared blankly at the sky as though they had not fully recovered from what they had just witnessed.“I don’t know whether we just watched a sword demonstration or a natural disas
Chapter 138: Learning to Cook
When Yanyan’s mother saw her daughter receive such an enormous gift, her body immediately trembled.Tears began to well up in her eyes.She quickly dropped to her knees in gratitude.“Young Master Han, we can never repay such kindness. I...”However, before her knees could touch the ground, a gentle force lifted her back up.Han Nian looked at her and smiled.“Auntie, how many times do I have to say that I don’t like people kneeling to me? We’re all family. If family members keep bowing and kneeling to each other, my legs will get tired from constantly stopping them.”The woman could no longer find any words to say.Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.Amid the warm atmosphere, Han Nian suddenly stepped forward and looked at all the members of the Han Clan.The casual aura around him gradually disappeared.His voice became more serious.“There’s also something I want to say to every member of the Han Clan. From now on, anyone who wishes to cultivate their physical body no long
Chapter 139: Farewell and a New Journey
The dishes were finally served across the dining table. The aroma of Spirit Beast meat prepared by An Ying spread throughout the room, making anyone who smelled it unconsciously swallow their saliva.Even Jia Xialan, who was accustomed to enjoying the finest delicacies from the imperial kitchens, had to admit that An Ying’s cooking possessed a different kind of warmth. It was not because the ingredients were more luxurious, but because of the sense of family contained within every dish.Han Nian, seated beside Yanyan, picked up a small piece of Tier Three Spirit Beast meat that had been cut into bite-sized portions. He blew on it briefly before holding it in front of the little girl’s mouth.“Come on, Yanyan. Open your mouth. This is very good food for strengthening the body. If you eat it regularly, your body will become much stronger than other children your age.”His voice sounded casual, as though he were feeding her ordinary meat rather than Tier Three Spirit Beast meat, somethin
Chapter 140: Journey Toward the Imperial Capital
Jia Xialan stepped forward a few paces before their departure. The morning breeze gently swayed her long black hair, while the light blue imperial dress she wore fluttered softly in the wind. Carrying herself with the grace befitting an imperial princess, she cupped her hands respectfully toward Han Sheng and An Ying. Despite her lofty status, there was not the slightest trace of arrogance on her beautiful face.“Uncle Han, Aunt An,” Jia Xialan said with a gentle and warm voice, “if one day you have free time and happen to visit the Imperial Capital, Xia’er would be delighted to welcome you both. I can also accompany you around the city and show you the best places there. So… please don’t forget to look for me when you arrive.”At the end of her sentence, a faint smile appeared on her lovely face. Her gaze was sincere, as though she truly hoped the couple would come visit her someday.An Ying immediately smiled warmly upon hearing those words. She stepped closer and held Jia Xialan’s
