Seven days later, Han Fei looked up at Luoan City before him.

It was ordinary, nothing remarkable. In fact, to Han Fei's eyes, the ancient city looked somewhat dilapidated.

Of course, Luoan City wasn't Han Fei's final destination; he was merely stopping here to establish a base.

In a room at an inn in the city, Han Fei carefully studied the map on a scroll.

Meanwhile, the woman in the black veil received a message from Pang Shuai, stating that neither Qi Xuanxuan nor Han Fei had returned to the Tianyuan Divine Sect.

The woman in the black veil crushed the sound transmission talisman into powder with her fair palm, narrowed her eyes, and said, "It seems that what He Xiong wanted to offer as tribute is indeed in the hands of Han Fei and the other one."

At this moment, Fu Jiahao led a group of black-clothed men to the door of the room.

With a wave of his hand, two people carried a cloth bag into the woman's room.

"Reporting to the eldest young lady, we've captured some survivors from the Hidden Dragon Abyss. They were all He Xiong's subordinates. After investigation, the last one to leave the Hidden Dragon Abyss alive was this person."

With another wave, his subordinates opened the cloth bag. Inside was the burly man, over two meters tall, wielding twin axes.

The man was in a sorry state, clearly having been interrogated by Fu Jiahao.

The burly man said in a low voice, "Senior Brother He Xiong has been looking at a place called Luoan City these past few days, but he didn't tell us the specific reason, and we didn't dare to ask. He said that after joining the Asura Hall, he would go to Luoan City."

The woman in the black veil asked doubtfully, "Luoan City?"

Fu Jiahao quickly spread out the map in his hand and pointed out the location of Luoan City.

"I've investigated. I did see Han Fei in the towns and villages leading to Luoan City, but he was alone. He bought a Swift Beast in the small town closest to the Hidden Dragon Abyss."

The woman in the black veil revealed a slight smile. "In that case, what are we waiting for? Notify all the experts and head to Luoan City in batches, awaiting my orders."

Fu Jiahao bowed in salute.

Meanwhile, Han Fei had settled down in Luoan City. Over the past few days, he had explored the surrounding deep mountains.

Being close to the sea and on the edge of the Tianyuan region, there were very few high-level demonic beasts. This saved Han Fei a lot of trouble.

In his room, Han Fei was still studying the scroll and map in his hand. However, the location marked on the scroll was an empty space between three mountain peaks. He had already searched this entire area. Han Fei had even used Spiritual Energy to blast a large pit at the marked spot, but he had found nothing.

Let alone any treasures, there wasn't even a discernible trace. It was clear that no one had set foot here for many years.

Han Fei believed that the secret must still be within this scroll. However, it was just an ordinary scroll, with nothing unusual when unrolled.

"Sigh, it's been over ten days. What does this location marked on the scroll mean? Could it be a trading spot?"

As he spoke, Han Fei shook his head. "A trading spot is unlikely. There isn't the slightest trace of anyone having been there, and the scroll looks very ancient, clearly having some age. It's more likely to be a marker for some kind of treasure."

After thinking for a long time, Han Fei couldn't figure it out. He left the inn, planning to stroll around Luoan City and buy some materials for Spirit Gathering Pills to refine some for his father and uncle.

Although Luoan City was located on the border, it was not chaotic due to its remote location, and the cultivation levels were generally not very high.

Through Han Fei's exploration over the past few days, anyone with a Spirit Gathering Realm cultivation could be considered a king or overlord in Luoan City. There were no more than a handful of experts in the Spirit Gathering Realm in the entire city.

As he was walking, he suddenly saw a crowd gathered in front of a mansion.

Driven by curiosity, Han Fei slowly approached, only to discover a hateful farce unfolding at the mansion's entrance.

More than a dozen experts in the Innate Realm were forcibly dragging a woman, about twenty years old, into the mansion.

The woman clung tightly to a pillar by the gate, refusing to let go.

The dozen guards seemed afraid of hurting the woman, so they didn't dare to use too much force.

At this moment, a young man in a luxurious robe came out of the courtyard, leading a large group of experts.

The young man was somewhat displeased. After coming out and seeing the situation, he frowned. "Hey, are you wronged for following me? Crying and whimpering, do you believe I'll make your Dong Family disappear from Luoan City?"

Han Fei frowned. This woman's surname was also Dong?

Saying this, Han Fei patted a middle-aged man beside him and humbly asked about the cause of the incident.

The middle-aged man looked at Han Fei's attire and immediately said, "Judging by your clothes, you're not from around here, are you? No wonder you don't recognize him. He's the City Lord's eldest son, named She Liang. This person is lecherous and has almost ruined all the reputable young ladies in this city."

"The reason why Luoan City's development is stagnant is that many wealthy families have quietly moved away. They can't afford to offend the City Lord's eldest son, so they can only choose to hide. Look, today She Liang has set his sights on the Dong Family's eldest daughter. Alas!"

Han Fei frowned. "Can the City Lord's eldest son disregard the law? Is there no one to manage them?"

The middle-aged man shook his head. "Luoan City is too remote, and the passing merchants are well taken care of by the City Lord. They never trouble passing merchants, only targeting people within the city. Moreover, the City Lord has also privately increased taxes, making the merchants and commoners here suffer greatly. Those with slightly higher cultivation levels have also been hired by the City Lord's mansion, leaving no force to oppose them in this area."

Han Fei took a deep breath, clearly quite angered.

At this moment, She Liang angrily said, "What are you all standing around for? Drag her in! Are you not attracting enough attention?"

Then She Liang shouted at the crowd, "What are you all looking at? Do you want to die?"

The onlookers immediately took a step back to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

The surrounding guards immediately stepped forward to drag the woman into the courtyard. At this moment, Han Fei made his move.

A bamboo stalk at his feet flew up, and Han Fei struck out with his palm, shattering the bamboo.

It disintegrated into more than a dozen bamboo strips, which shot out and pierced the palms of the dozen Innate Realm experts who had surrounded them.

"Ah!" The guards who had surrounded them and those who hadn't were all injured by the bamboo strips, clutching their hands and crying out in pain.

She Liang, who had been shouting orders, was stunned. It was only then that he realized his guards had been attacked.

"Who is it? Who did it? Don't you know who I am? How dare you cause trouble in Luoan City? I'll make you wish you were dead!"

As soon as She Liang finished speaking, Han Fei walked out from the crowd step by step, leisurely heading towards She Liang.

She Liang was startled by Han Fei's gaze. "Who, who are you?"

Han Fei spread his hands. "Didn't you say I couldn't live or die? I really want to experience that, come on."

She Liang frowned. He had the cultivation of the Seventh Level of the Innate Realm, so there was no need to be afraid. But judging from Han Fei's previous move, even if it was a sneak attack, it was enough to prove that Han Fei's strength far surpassed the Innate Realm.

Moreover, the fact that he couldn't see Han Fei's cultivation further confirmed this.

"My, my father is the City Lord of Luoan City, a master of the Spirit Gathering Realm. If you dare to touch me, you can imagine the consequences."

Slap. Han Fei didn't speak. He answered with action, delivering a resounding slap to She Liang's face, making him stagger.

Pfft. She Liang spat out two teeth, his entire left cheek swelling up.

Han Fei said coldly, "I did touch you. What can you do about it?"

The guard leader, who was at the Ninth Level of the Innate Realm, endured the pain in his left palm and raised his right hand, gripping his weapon. He immediately slashed towards Han Fei.

Han Fei's lips curved slightly as he turned into an afterimage.

The guard leader only felt a chill on his left hand. He looked down to see that the bamboo strip that had been inserted into the back of his left hand was gone. At the same time, he felt a cool breeze at his right wrist.

When the guard leader looked up, a shocking bloody wound on his wrist was visible, cut by the soft bamboo strip in Han Fei's hand.

Clang. His wrist was severed, and the weapon in his hand fell to the ground with a metallic sound.

At this point, Han Fei wasn't even looking at the guard leader anymore. The bamboo strip in his right hand was now hovering at the edge of She Liang's neck.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Everyone hadn't even registered Han Fei's movements.

As the bamboo strip touched the skin of his neck, She Liang was completely stunned. He understood that even this soft bamboo strip could end his life in an instant.

But Han Fei's performance wasn't over yet. He extended his left hand and unleashed a Spiritual Energy attack towards She Liang's legs.

Bang. Blood splattered. She Liang felt an intense pain in his legs and immediately knelt on the ground.

However, with his neck held, She Liang didn't dare to make any sudden moves. Cold sweat poured down his forehead as he endured the pain.

Han Fei's emotionless voice echoed throughout the crowd.

"Take out your communication talisman. I'll give you time to call someone who can back you up. I'll only give you fifteen minutes. If they don't arrive by then, I'll send you on your way."
