"Try to prevent Yi Three's death from being discovered later!"
With a decision in mind, Fang Han began to delay as much time as possible.
He took out a ceramic jar from Storage Ring, pulled out the stopper, and a pungent smell spread out.
He poured Corpse-Dissolving Water onto Yi Three's body. With a hissing sound, the body and its clothes melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It turned into a pool of dark yellow turbid liquid and seeped into the broken soil.
Then he picked up the "Yi Three" jade tablet, cast Body Movement, and went deep into the dense forest.
After a while, he found a predatory wolf.
He captured the wild wolf and tied Identity Jade Token to the wild wolf with cloth.
The purpose of this is to make Identity Jade Token move, so as to prevent Dark Abyss from having the means to detect the location of Identity Jade Token, and find that Identity Jade Token has not moved for a long time, which will lead to suspicion.
After doing this, he returned to the place where he was just now and erased the traces of the previous battle.
"It's as long as it takes."
Fang Han let out a breath of turbid air, returned to the official road, turned over and rode on Redfire's broad back.
Redfire let out a low growl, spread out his four paws and continued to move forward along the official road.
The early summer wind blew past my ears, carrying the smell of earth and vegetation.
Fang Han sat cross-legged on the lion's back, with the Medium-grade Dharma Weapon-level Silver-Gray Longsword hanging from his waist, looking forward.
Although there is still a trace of haze lingering in my heart, my expression is no longer tense.
As for Dark Abyss, if the soldiers come to block it, the water will come and the earth will cover it.
"Whoosh!"
The speed of Redfire is extremely stable, and you can hardly feel any bumps while running.
The fields and trees on both sides receded rapidly, and the sun shone through the gaps in the clouds, stretching the shadows of the man and the lion.
"Buzz--"
Fang Han closed his eyes, and <Greenwood Poison-Avoidance Scripture> was running slowly in his body. Dark Green's Internal Qi was rushing through his meridians, restoring some of the internal energy consumed in the battle just now.
He was thinking silently in his mind: when he arrived at Liangshui City, he would properly count the betrothal gifts and set off as soon as possible to propose marriage to the Yun Clan and Hundred Treasures Pavilion.
It's best to get these things done before the next wave of assassinations from Dark Abyss arrives.
Although he was confident that he could withstand the next wave of assassinations from Dark Abyss, it would be best if he could avoid being assassinated.
"Redfire, faster."
He patted the lion demon's neck.
Redfire let out a deep roar, exerted force on his limbs, and suddenly increased his speed, turning into a crimson flowing shadow that quickly swept along the official road.
Redfire was traveling very fast. That afternoon, Fang Han saw the familiar outline of Liangshui City from a distance.
It was June, and the city walls were covered with green vines, glowing in the afternoon sun.
The city gate is crowded with people, and it is a bit more prosperous than a few months ago. This small city has a tendency to be upgraded to a medium-sized city.
The soldiers guarding the city saw a huge red figure running towards the city gate from a distance, and their expressions changed involuntarily.
Just as he was about to give a warning, when he saw clearly that it was Fang Han sitting upright on the lion's back, the soldier leader hurriedly ordered his men to get out of the way, trotted forward to greet him, and bowed to salute.
"Master Fang, you are back!"
Fang Han nodded slightly, and Redfire walked through the city gate with steady steps.
Pedestrians on both sides of the street were shocked at first when they saw this giant lion whose body was as red as fire. But when they saw the green-robed figure on the lion's back, their fear turned into deeper awe.
"It's Master Fang Han!"
"That mount... has such a strong aura!"
"Master Fang actually used the First Grade monster as his mount. It's really amazing."
From time to time, low murmurs could be heard in the crowd. Some people quickly stepped aside to give way, while others clasped their fists and bowed in salute.
Fang Clan Every time this genius True Disciple comes back, it makes people more and more confused.
Fang Han rode Redfire and walked along the main street of the city towards the Fang Mansion.
In front of the Fang Mansion, the vermilion-lacquered door is extraordinary, and the two stone lions in front of it glow with a solid luster in the sunlight.
"Master Han is back!"
A Guard shouted loudly in front of the door, and the news quickly spread to the house as if it had wings.
Fang Han turned over and got off Redfire, patted its huge head, and motioned for it to follow behind him.
After passing through many courtyards, Fang Han walked straight in the direction of the Rain-Listening Pavilion.
Outside the Rain-Listening Pavilion's door, his father Fang Zheng and his mother Lin Wan had already heard the news and came out.
Lin Wan was wearing a navy blue skirt with a happy smile on her face.
Fang Zheng was dressed in a brocade robe, standing with his hands behind his hands, his eyes filled with unconcealable joy.
"Father, mother."
Fang Han called out and took a few steps forward.
"Han'er, won't you be back after some time? Why are you back now?"
Lin Wan stepped forward and took Fang Han's hand, looking up and down, with both joy and a bit of doubt in his eyes.
"Cultivation has come to an end, so I came back early."
Fang Han smiled slightly and was admitted to the hospital at the same time as his parents.
Nine-year-old Younger Sister Fang Ying heard the noise and ran out of the study.
She was wearing a goose-yellow skirt and a bun. When she saw Fang Han, she trotted forward happily.
"Brother!"
Fang Han reached out and rubbed her head gently.
The family sat around the Side Hall table. Maid served the tea and then quietly left.
Fang Zheng picked up the tea cup, looked at Fang Han and asked:
"You came back so early, do you want to advance the engagement?"
"I just have some free time now, so I want to advance the engagement. Will it be too late?"
Fang Han put down the tea cup and looked a little more serious.
Fang Zheng and Lin Wan looked at each other with smiles on their faces.
"It's already June now, and everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared. Although it's a little ahead of schedule, it doesn't matter."
Lin Wan said with a smile on his face.
"Clan Head has asked Clan Head to help with the betrothal gift, matchmaker, and dates. I'm just waiting for you to come back to finalize it."
Fang Han nodded slightly, took out two Cold Jade boxes from the package, and placed them gently on the table.
"What is this?"
Fang Zheng's eyes fell on the two boxes.
"Two natural treasures obtained from traveling."
Fang Han Open the box cover in sequence.
In one of the Cold Jade boxes, there is a fruit with a strange fragrance lying quietly.
The fruit is about the size of a longan, pale golden in color, and has a faint flowing light on its surface.
Another Cold Jade box was opened, and a fiery red flower the size of a bowl appeared in front of the eyes.
There are nine petals in total, each petal showing a flame-like red color, and a red mist swirls slowly at the stamen.
A very faint fragrance spreads, and after inhaling it, people feel slightly refreshed.
"Is this...?"
Fang Zheng frowned slightly. With his experience, he naturally could not recognize these two things.
"Realm-Breaking Fruit and Longevity Flower."
Fang Han said.
"Realm-Breaking Fruit can help people break through the bottleneck of cultivation in the upper three realms. Even if Fourth Grade peaks to the bottleneck of Third Grade, taking this fruit will give you at least 50% more confidence."
"Longevity Flower can extend your life by thirty years. It is a rare life-extending treasure, and its value is not inferior to Realm-Breaking Fruit."
Fang Zheng's hand holding the tea cup paused slightly.
Lin Wan looked at those two things in surprise, with a bit of disbelief in his voice:
"There is such a treasure of heaven and earth."
Fang Han pushed the two Cold Jade boxes in front of his parents.
"Realm-Breaking Fruit, add it to the gift list of the Yun Clan. Yun Clan Head Yun Yue Shan has been trapped in the peak of Fourth Grade for many years. This thing is the most precious to him."
He paused and continued.
"Longevity Flower, then add it to the Hundred Treasures Pavilion's gift list. Hundred Treasures Pavilion, as a chamber of commerce, uses the preciousness of the flower as a store treasure."
Fang Zheng stroked his beard and pondered, then nodded slowly after a moment:
"You are thoughtful. Yun Clan has been trapped in the peak of Fourth Grade for many years. It is just right to use Realm-Breaking Fruit as a betrothal gift. As for the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, the life-extending treasure is indeed enough to be the treasure of the store."
Lin Wan took over the conversation and said with a bit of urgency in his tone.
"With these two treasures of heaven and earth, the gift list will not look shabby. When do you plan to come to our house to get engaged?"
"The sooner the better."
Fang Han nodded, looking calm, and did not say a word about the assassination.
Parents are just ordinary people. Killer organizations like Dark Abyss are too far away for them. Speaking of them will only increase their worries.
As for the sect, he sent the message through special channels, but with his current strength, what the sect can do to help is extremely limited.
In the next more than an hour, Fang Zheng took the betrothal gift list that had been drawn up long ago, and the three of them went through it carefully one by one.
Among the betrothal gifts given to the Yun Clan, in addition to the Realm-Breaking Fruit, there are also gold and silver jewelry, silk and satin, various Danyao and many other generous gifts.
In addition to Longevity Flower, the betrothal gift for the Hundred Treasures Pavilion also included several rare antiques that Fang Clan specially collected from Prefecture City.
Fang Han looked at it and had no objection, but just warned:
"Hurry up, I won't be able to stay too long."
Fang Zheng and Lin Wan just thought that Fang Han was busy practicing and wanted to get married as soon as possible, so they didn't think much about it.
In a shop.
A middle-aged man wearing a gray cloth robe with an ordinary face looked at the already cold tea on the table and frowned slightly.
He is the intelligence chief of Dark Abyss in Qingyang Prefecture.
According to the information, Fang Han has left Azure Profound Sect and returned to Liangshui City.
Logically speaking, this is an excellent opportunity to assassinate Fang Han.
But so far, no information has been returned that Fang Han was assassinated.
He couldn't help but feel abnormal.
Has it not started yet, or has it already taken place but failed?
"Whoosh!"
The middle-aged man took out a palm-sized object shaped like a compass from his arms.
The compass is inky black with a dark red jade bead embedded in the center, which is exactly the Tracking Compass used by Dark Abyss to track Identity Token.
His fingertips gently pressed the dark red jade bead under the urging of Internal Qi. A layer of faint dark red lines appeared on the surface of the compass, and a very thin red pointer slowly rotated, pointing to the northwest.
"Identity Token is moving, but its location..."
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in his ordinary eyes.
Identity Token is moving, which means that nothing happened to Yi Three.
But where Yi Three is now, if his estimate is correct, it should be in a mountain forest.
Why didn't Yi Three go to assassinate Fang Han instead of appearing in the forest?
"Go and investigate first!"
The middle-aged man put away his compass, left the shop, unfolded Body Movement in the direction pointed by the compass pointer, and rushed away.
A few hours later, he arrived at the source of the compass needle.
It was a dense pine forest with lush vegetation. The sunlight filtered through the gaps between the branches and leaves, casting mottled light and shadow on the ground.
He stopped and looked ahead.
A gray wolf was munching on the carcass of a hare.
The gray wolf's neck was tied with a jet black jade plaque, which glowed with a cold luster in the sunlight.
