Chapter 457: Chapter 453: Family Comes First, Career Comes Later
What was casually given out turned out to be an object with an orange trait…
Such things are rare even in the Divine Land.
Seeing Shen Han say so, Yi Qi suddenly understood.
It was Shen Han who had recognized the value of these two items. He initially thought Shen Han couldn’t see the preciousness of this Pill.
“This Pill was actually prepared long ago for Xingshan.
But this child’s body has always been hindered in cultivation.
Even if he takes this soul-nourishing Pill, he won’t reap much benefit.
Thus, it has been preserved until now.”
The Vice Sect Leader, Yi Qi, paused for a moment and looked at Shen Han.
“Finally, this child has gotten some good fortune and met you.
The most important thing for a person in the world is to know gratitude and repay it.
Xingshan being able to recover is already enough satisfaction for me as his father.
Compared to the kindness you’ve shown Xingshan, these items are merely a drop in the ocean.
These days, I have been much more at ease during my rest, and you, this child, undoubtedly deserve these gifts.”
After finishing his words, Yi Qi pushed these two items in front of Shen Han.
“Brother Shen, please accept them. These items pale in comparison to your kindness to us.”
Seeing everyone being so insistent, Shen Han hesitated for a while but eventually accepted.
After arriving at the Celestial Sword Sect, Shen Han indeed felt different.
Especially when compared to Cangxuan Valley, the difference was too great.
After delivering the gifts, Elder Yin sensibly went to request the dining hall to prepare some additional dishes.
Sitting before the wooden table, the few of them ate some food.
Yi Xingshan even clinked glasses with his father, and the father-son pair was truly happy.
“Shen Han, with Su Jinyu… is it convenient to talk about?”
Having drunk a bit of wine, Yi Qi, the Vice Sect Leader, spoke much more casually.
“Senior, don’t misunderstand, I have no other relation with Su Jinyu.
We are just from the same hometown. I’m only looking for her to ask some questions.
I have no interest in her…”
This was already not the first person to misunderstand me, it’s just that Su Jinyu is quite notable at the Celestial Sword Sect.
“I see…”
Hearing this, Yi Qi felt a bit disappointed.
If Su Jinyu and Shen Han could pair up, it would be a union between two sects.
Adding another layer of relationship…
After contemplating for a moment, Yi Qi asked again, “If both Jiang Ling’Er and Su Jinyu are unmentioned…
Shen Han, what kind of woman do you like?
After all, the Celestial Sword Sect is a great sect of the Inner Domain, with countless disciples.
Even among the direct disciples, there are many female disciples.
You can get to know them, discuss the journey of Sword Dao, which is great.”
Upon hearing these words, Yi Xingshan shook his head and stepped forward to interrupt.
“Father, what you say, Brother Shen is younger than me, this age is precisely the prime time for cultivation.
Forming unions is purely a waste of time and energy.
Right, Brother Shen?”
Yi Xingshan hadn’t finished his words when Yi Qi beside him reprimanded.
“What do you know? Before, seeing your health was unwell, every day exerting yourself in cultivation, I held back from teaching you, in case I hurt your feelings.
Now that your health has recovered, within two years, you must have the marriage arranged.”
One sentence roused Yi Xingshan from his drunken stupor.
“Father… you’re joking, right?”
“I’m not joking with you. I got married late and had you for a son when I was already quite old.
If I had had you when I was younger, there wouldn’t have been any health issues.
Anyway, within two years, if you can’t find someone you like, I will arrange it.”
Yi Xingshan originally intended to speak up for Shen Han, but unexpectedly, the fire suddenly turned onto him.
“This…. this isn’t suitable, my cultivation hasn’t yet reached a good state, nor have I achieved good results…”
Yi Xingshan’s face showed a look of difficulty, still trying to argue.
“Family and career, family comes first, career comes second.
Anyway, within two years, if you can’t find the right one, father knows how to arrange it.”
Seeing such a strong stance from his father, Yi Xingshan looked at Shen Han.
“How can such matters be forced…
Father, look at Brother Shen, he already has such strength, yet still refuses the intentions of those women.
He has declined Senior Sister Jiang and Su Jinyu.
If Brother Shen is also willing to seek a partner, then forcing me might make sense.”
Yi Xingshan stood by Shen Han’s side, as if thinking having Shen Han as a role model would let him brush it aside.
But just as he finished speaking, Shen Han moved slightly to the side.
“Brother Yi…
The truth is, the reason I refused them is that I already have someone I admire…
So, you’d better listen to Senior Yi.”
Shen Han said with a bit of a smile.
This statement made everyone pause.
It turns out Shen Han already has a beloved, huh?
Indeed, having such ability and excellent appearance and temperament.
It’s quite normal for him to be noticed early by other women.
Upon hearing this, Yi Qi didn’t bring up the matter again.
Just now, Shen Han had subtly declined by saying he already had someone he admired.
Forming connections isn’t solely through marital bonds.
Until late at night, Yi Qi and Elder Yin left the courtyard.
Yi Xingshan was already lying in bed, having gone to sleep quite early in his drunken state.
The alcohol didn’t affect Shen Han much.
Especially the intoxication, thanks to the existence of the Unceasing Skill, was directly judged as poisoning.
During the operation of the cultivation technique, the intoxication had been dissolved.
Sitting in the guest room, Shen Han took out the orange Pill.
To be honest, Senior Yi was truly generous.
Shen Han anticipated they might send some items to repay him, but never expected they’d send such a valuable Pill.
The trait is [nourishing and stabilizing the soul], it should be beneficial for Divine Soul cultivation.
Hesitated for a while, Shen Han didn’t wait any longer, and directly consumed the Pill.
His cultivation time in Divine Soul was actually quite short.
Without relying on pills, catching up to others would require a long time.
The Pill was consumed.
From its aroma, one could feel its relatively mild texture, not a kind of overwhelming medicinal effect.
Once the Pill entered the body, its effects were also slowly flowing.
A cool sensation enveloped him.
Shen Han summoned his Divine Soul, and under the nourishment of the Pill, his Divine Soul seemed to visibly improve.
The Soul Power inside his body was slowly increasing.
As night passed, the cool sensation still lingered within him.
The Alchemist who refined this Pill was skilled. He allowed the Pill’s effects to release gradually.
The consumer would have an extended absorption period.
But the benefits received were undoubtedly greater than those with fierce effects.
Cangxuan Valley.
The sect competition ground, today there are more spectators than on the day of the Seven Sects Martial Arts Competition.
Today is the ranking competition for Cangxuan Valley Inner Sect disciples.
Every year, Cangxuan Valley conducts ranking competitions for Inner Sect disciples.
