Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

Throughout the entire process, Shen Han walked extremely cautiously.

On his way back, he even retraced the path he had taken.

In this section, many poisonous trees with extracted entries had completely withered.

Beside these dead trees, new saplings had already begun to grow.

It would take a hundred years for them to become trees, so these saplings still had a long way to go before maturing.

After all, only two years had passed thus far.

Walking cautiously for over four two-hour periods, Shen Han extracted several more purple entries.

They were all related to toxicity.

Finding orange entries was indeed a matter of luck, and on this trip, he did not encounter any terrifying poisonous trees.

However, Shen Han was not lacking in orange entries.

Currently, the two swords in his hands contained orange entries.

One was the [Poisonous Longsword], which, if it wounded the opponent, would at least cost a limb.

If delayed any longer, it could even cost their life.

The other was the [Longsword at Hand], which made executing techniques extremely easy.

In prolonged battles, this sword would greatly enhance his sustained combat ability.

At the edge of the Land of the Far South, Shen Han chose not to step out immediately.

Luo Zuchen’s temperament was steady, and he claimed he would be confined to the Land of the Far South, likely keeping his word barring any surprises.

But by now, nearly two years had passed, enough time for most to relax their guard.

Nonetheless, Shen Han remained as cautious as possible.

Regardless, Luo Zuchen was a strong practitioner of the Immortal Realm, having entered it many years ago.

While Shen Han did not fear him, it was wise to remain cautious.

With sword in hand, he adjusted his state slightly before completely stepping out.

The outskirts of the Land of the Far South were quiet and still.

Though it appeared free of danger, Shen Han wasted no time, quickly leaping away.

The vernal equinox was soon approaching, and previously withered plants were starting to sprout new buds.

Gazing at the surrounding vegetation, Shen Han felt a sense of familiarity for some unknown reason.

He had seen Luo Zuchen’s method of incarnation.

By using incarnations drawn as scrolls, he could enact surveillance in many places.

So after leaving the Land of the Far South, Shen Han proceeded with extreme caution and vigilance.

Finding nothing unusual, he continued at full speed.

Heading northward, things were expected to improve after entering the territory of the Great Wei.

On the way to Great Wei, Shen Han did not take the extravagant flying ships.

After about seven two-hour periods, Shen Han finally entered the territory of the Great Wei.

This was the southernmost region of Great Wei, formerly known as Yexuan Country.

Now, it had been renamed Yexuan Mansion, overseeing the two cities that once belonged to Yexuan Country.

Shen Han merely glanced at it, not stopping, continuing directly towards Anyang City.

The closer he got, the more excited he became.

Having been away for two years, he wondered how Madam Yun and Cailing were doing, hoping they were taking good care of themselves.

The journey to Anyang City would take about three days, as he had to stay alert for sudden dangers, preventing him from focusing solely on his travels.

At dawn, some time before 7:00 AM.

The sun cautiously peeked over the horizon, casting a ray of light upon Anyang City.

Raising his eyes to this ray of light, Shen Han thought, isn’t this what his two-year journey had been seeking?

In Anyang City, the vendors selling morning snacks had already set up their stalls early.

The streets buzzed with continuous shouts.

Although it was quite noisy, Shen Han felt a certain sense of peace — perhaps this was the feeling of life.

Step by step, Shen Han walked towards the Yun Mansion.

Upon reaching the entrance of the Yun Mansion, it was exactly 7:00 AM.

At this time, the main gates of the Yun Mansion were opening.

Several servants emerged, each carrying a vegetable basket.

To keep ingredients fresh, daily purchases were necessary.

Glancing around, Shen Han realized he didn’t recognize these servants after two years.

They must have joined within these two years.

After these servants exited, the gates of the Yun Mansion were about to close.

Seeing this, Shen Han immediately stepped forward.

Before Shen Han could speak, one of the Yun Family servants bowed to him.

“Are you here at the Yun Mansion to seek medicine?

Since half a year ago, we have not been accepting visits, and you’ll have to leave.

If you know the owner, please send a message to them.

Once arranged, we will naturally come to meet you.”

Though the servant spoke respectfully, there was a firm refusal in his tone.

“Has the mansion even canceled the rule of receiving one visitor a day?”

Shen Han smiled wryly; it seemed the Yun Mansion was indeed overwhelmed with busyness.

“To be honest with you, the scheduled Pills at the mansion are booked until year’s end.

The patriarch and others work tirelessly every day, having little time to rest.

If you’re seeking medicine, you’ve truly come at the wrong time.

If you have time, you might go to the Changsun Family for assistance.

In our Great Wei, the Changsun Family’s mastery of Pills is also top-notch.”

Hearing this, Shen Han couldn’t help but laugh — promoting business for others like that really elevated their reputation.

It could only be said that the Yun Mansion was too busy these days.

“Could you please convey a message? I wish to see Madam Yunshuang.

Just tell her Shen Han wishes to meet her.”

Shen Han thought that merely mentioning his name would be enough for this servant to understand.

Even if he didn’t get it, going to report, and Madam Yun would know and come to see him right away.

However, upon hearing this, the young servant looked apologetic.
