Chapter 387: Chapter 386: That Severed Right Leg Was Already Withered When Sent to the Capital City
When the Shen family first heard the news, none of them believed it.
Especially Madam He, she merely chuckled lightly.
As Shen Ye’s mother, she knew quite a bit about him.
Her son had a very robust physique.
Even if he sustained serious injuries, a good rest would be enough for him to recover fully.
Moreover, Shen Ye had countless secret treasures, making it truly difficult to break his leg.
Though he was skeptical, Shen Qingshan still had spies in the Capital City investigate the matter.
In less than two hours, news came from the spies in the Capital City.
Shen Ye’s leg was indeed broken.
If it were only a fractured leg, there might still be a chance for recovery.
There were great doctors in the Capital City with miraculous skills, capable of rejoining bones and limbs.
But the spies reported that when Shen Ye’s severed right leg arrived in the Capital City, it was already dry.
It was clearly afflicted by a certain strange poison.
This leg could no longer be reattached.
Receiving this news, Madam He fainted instantly.
The atmosphere in the Shen Mansion also turned grave immediately.
The Shen family hoped Shen Han would perish, sparing them more trouble.
But they did not wish to sacrifice Shen Ye for it…
In just one night, the Shen family’s two prodigies.
One disappeared without a trace, the other became crippled with a leg severed…
In recent days, Shi Yuezhu, Dean Tianyi, and others have been searching for Shen Han’s whereabouts.
Their information revealed only that Shen Han encountered obstruction from Shen Ye while trying to escape.
Shen Han eventually cut off Shen Ye’s leg and subsequently fled.
This direction appeared to lead toward Anyang City.
But the Yun Family in Anyang City did not see Shen Han.
The trail suddenly grew cold.
Luo Zuchen is now missing, and Shen Han’s whereabouts are unknown.
Attempts to contact him via Sound Transmission Magical Artifact have gone unanswered…
Madam Yun of Anyang City fainted upon hearing this news.
When she awoke, her expression was tense and frantic, repeating.
“It’s okay, surely it’s okay…”
Yet, surviving an assassination by an Immortal Realm expert is truly unlikely.
The Yun Family even offered a reward, promising a slice of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to anyone who could eradicate Luo Zuchen!
Luo Zuchen now is no longer a teacher at Mountain Sea Academy but a criminal for attempting to assassinate the Great Wei’s heir.
The reward is offered, but whether it will be effective remains unknown.
Luo Zuchen, after all, is an Immortal Realm expert, and now his whereabouts are unknown.
Even if known, his desire to escape with his life makes him anything but easy to kill.
The vast Great Wei, in one night, saw two prodigies fall from the summit.
For Great Wei, it feels like a fleeting illusion of revival.
In recent years, Great Wei has gradually declined, unable to keep pace with the might of Qi and Wei’s young generation.
Now, with Shen Ye, there’s also Shen Han.
The competition between these young individuals even escalates into fierce battles among Fourth Grade experts.
Witnessing this scene, the people of Great Wei seem to feel again that Great Wei isn’t declining just yet.
The flag of Great Wei still has bearers.
But as the night passes.
One goes missing, one is crippled.
Among Great Wei’s younger generation, who will bear this banner?
…
Resisting the drowsiness induced by the “Unceasing Skill”, Shen Han didn’t try to fight it this time.
He slept under the large tree, with occasional cool breezes blowing the fallen leaves covering him away.
At night, more leaves fell, concealing Shen Han once more.
No one knows how many days he slept.
In the distance, two people rode on steeds, heading westward.
“Uncle Qin, are we truly on the path to the Taihang Sect?”
“Sixteenth Princess, please be at ease. Our Jiuxiao Country is currently in a standoff with the Blood Moon Sect, and the original route often had ambushes by assassins.
Taking this small path might take us around, but it at least guarantees safety.”
After this explanation, the Sixteenth Princess seemed slightly reassured.
The two continued forward, advancing only a few steps before Uncle Qin tugged at the reins.
“Uncle Qin, this place is desolate, why are we stopping here?”
The Sixteenth Princess was still a bit worried, feeling something was off.
The middle-aged man known as Uncle Qin chuckled heartily.
“Don’t worry, Princess, we are just waiting; they’ll be here soon.”
While speaking, two people indeed approached from a distance using a magical artifact.
The magical artifact looked odd, seemingly composed of strangely shaped branches.
When the Sixteenth Princess saw them clearly, her face turned pale instantly.
She hurried to Uncle Qin’s side, clutching his sleeve.
“Uncle Qin, it’s the Young Sect Leader of the Lion King Sect, we must flee, flee quickly…”
Seeing the Sixteenth Princess’s urgency, Uncle Qin chuckled once more.
“Princess, we’re waiting for Mr. Hu He, what’s there to flee?”
“Seeing me, is there a need to flee?”
As he spoke, the horrifying man who frightened the Sixteenth Princess already reached her side.
The Young Sect Leader of the Lion King Sect was accompanied by another middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man displayed a disdainful expression, his eyes carrying an air of arrogance.
Upon hearing Hu He speak, the Sixteenth Princess began trembling, seized by ultimate fright.
“Uncle Qin, you’ll save me, won’t you… won’t you…”
With only Uncle Qin beside her as a hope amidst the overwhelming fear flooding her heart.
But in the next instance, Hu He brought out some reward.
Casually tossed them to Uncle Qin’s hands.
“Thank you, Young Sect Leader, these rewards, it would take me years to earn them in Jiuxiao Country~”
Even being naive, the Sixteenth Princess understood the situation before her.
This princess had been sold by her guard as goods.
Sold to the Young Sect Leader of the Lion King Sect before her.
Realizing this, the Sixteenth Princess drew a dagger, placing it at her throat.
“Uncle Qin, I trusted you so much…”
“Don’t be impulsive, Princess, I’m forced with no choice, Jiuxiao Country’s current situation might not hold for long.
I have a wife and children at home who I must consider.”
After speaking, Uncle Qin showed his signature cheerful smile once more.
“I would rather die than endure such torment…”
“Old Qin can’t help with that, the Sixteenth Princess’s life or death; it is now up to Young Sect Leader Hu He.”
Leaving these words, Old Qin departed with some humor.
Upon witnessing this, the Sixteenth Princess of Jiuxiao Country felt a surge of desperate intent welling in her heart.
Hu He has a notorious reputation, and falling into his hands isn’t just about disgrace but torment.
Inhumane torment.
The dagger poised to pierce her throat.
But suddenly, she felt her body frozen, unable to move.
“Ah, I, Hu He, adore such fierce spirits; much more interesting than those throwing themselves at me.
Don’t waste your effort, you have only just entered Spirit Body Realm, at Spirit Body Realm 3rd Layer.
Uncle Bai San’s mere thought can render you immobile.”
While speaking, Hu He reached out, snatched away the dagger, and tossed it aside.
And her body regained its ability to move at this moment.
