Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes - Chapter 497 - 493: She’s Not the Moon Bamboo Peak Master
After returning the ancient texts, this exploration of the Secret Realm should be considered completely concluded.
Before coming, Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi didn’t have high expectations.
When they encountered Yao Wanning’s willful behavior, they felt that the trip would most likely be a failure.
Perhaps because their expectations were low, when they finally succeeded, the excitement in their hearts was greater than they had imagined.
In fact, when Su Jinyu now looked at Yao Wanning, she didn’t find her so annoying.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Shen Han and then walked over to Yao Wanning.
“Fairy Wanning, there may have been some unpleasantness during this journey to the Secret Realm.
Please forgive us. The reason for our actions was to find as many of these ancient texts as possible.
If we offended you, we truly ask for your forgiveness.”
After speaking, Su Jinyu looked at Shen Han and walked over to whisper a few words.
She was still a bit worried.
After all, in the Secret Realm, Shen Han had used that hairband to whip Yao Wanning.
And it wasn’t just once, but as many as eleven times…
Su Jinyu hoped Shen Han would say some soft words to brush this matter aside.
Upon hearing this, Shen Han stepped forward and looked at Yao Wanning.
“Fairy Wanning, there are some things I really want to say to you.
Snow Mountain House holds a Jade in its hands, and there are many forces in the Divine Land eyeing it covetously.
The reason your Snow Mountain House can still stand is that the cost of seizing that Jade from you exceeds the potential reward.
But once Snow Mountain House declines or its strength diminishes slightly,
your entire sect won’t have peace.”
Shen Han spoke seriously, while Su Jinyu beside him kept hinting for him to say soft words, but Shen Han didn’t respond.
“As a junior of Snow Mountain House, I suggest you change your temperament.
As it is, you’re very likely to make enemies for your sect.
Snow Mountain House, compared to many sects in the Divine Land, really has not a small gap.
Making friends might allow you to gain some goodwill.
But if you continue like this, you’ll only make things harder for Snow Mountain House.”
After Shen Han finished speaking, Su Jinyu beside him looked helpless and quickly stepped forward.
“Fairy Wanning, please don’t mind, Shen Han’s words are a bit direct…”
Upon hearing Su Jinyu’s words, Shen Han shook his head.
“Actually, I always speak quite tactfully and rarely point out others’ faults.
The reason I say these words is still out of consideration for you lending us the ancient texts to browse.
Moreover, in the Secret Realm, though you took some beatings, at least you listened to reason.
Under these circumstances, I decided to give you some advice.
Changing your willful and arrogant behavior will be very beneficial to you.
Foolishness is not a barrier to survival; arrogance is.
This saying from the sages, I gift to you.”
As they spoke, the three of them leaped to the mountaintop.
After the Secret Realm was unlocked, the previous restrictions and illusions all vanished.
The three didn’t hesitate much, stepping on their Magical Artifact, flying towards Celestial Sword Sect.
Watching the direction they left, Yao Wanning’s eyes lowered slightly.
In usual times, not even her great-grandfather would preach to her…
But today, Shen Han spoke to her like this, and she didn’t feel angry at all.
Realizing this, Yao Wanning felt a bit flustered.
She didn’t understand why she felt this way…
Especially… Especially after being whipped, not only wasn’t she angry, but…
The more she thought about it, the more unsettled Yao Wanning became, even suspecting if she was ill.
Amongst her thoughts, not far away, the people from Snow Mountain House had arrived.
Seeing these precious ancient texts before them, their faces couldn’t hide their joy.
“Miss Wanning truly lives up to the Sect Leader’s favor, being able to unlock this mysterious Secret Realm is a great thing for our entire Snow Mountain House.”
“It wasn’t me, it was all Shen Han’s doing…”
They didn’t know who Shen Han was, but the compliments kept coming.
“Miss Wanning is too modest, achieving such a great feat without competing for credit.”
Seeing them this way, Yao Wanning no longer spoke much with them.
She followed them, flying towards the sect grounds of Snow Mountain House.
It seemed that after this event, Yao Wanning had grown a lot.
In the vast sky, Shen Han sat on Fu Tianqi’s Magical Artifact.
The smiles on Su Jinyu and Fu Tianqi’s faces never faded.
Shen Han closed his eyes, thinking about the “Thousand Moon Mechanism Secret Skill” in his mind.
Shen Han had already memorized the entire contents of this ancient text.
Imagining the methods of Mechanism crafting in his mind.
From reading this ancient text, it was clear that the Immortal had been lenient with the Mechanism traps in his Secret Realm.
Following the Secret Technique in this text, it would take thousands of years to find a successor.
As he pondered, Fu Tianqi came over with some food.
“Brother Shen, try this, see if it suits your taste.
You were the support throughout this journey; without you, we would have returned empty-handed.”
Taking the food, Shen Han smiled and took a bite.
He’s not choosy about food, after all, he could eat flatbreads, let alone this food which tastes much better.
“Brother Fu, Fairy Su, did you gain anything from those two ancient texts you were reading?”
Shen Han was still somewhat curious about those texts.
Upon hearing this, Su Jinyu helplessly shook her head: “That text was supposed to be about Sword Dao cultivation, but when I opened it, it was mostly about how to craft a Treasure Sword…
Since when did we Sword Dao cultivators have to start learning sword forging…”
Su Jinyu was a bit disappointed; clearly, she wasn’t satisfied with the text.
Beside her, Fu Tianqi also let out a wry smile: “My Body Technique text looked fine, but in two hours, I couldn’t even finish reading it, let alone begin learning…”
“My Cultivation Technique…”
“Brother Shen, you don’t need to say. Your text is about Mechanism crafting methods, which we’re not interested in at all…”
Fu Tianqi laughed as he spoke, both he and Su Jinyu were practitioners of Sword Dao.
Anything about Mechanisms, they weren’t keen to hear.
In good spirits, they spoke much more casually.
Su Jinyu stepped over, sitting next to Shen Han.
“Why were you so blunt with Fairy Wanning today?
If she goes to complain to her elders, it could really cause trouble.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Han pressed his lips together.
“Weren’t you also annoyed by her willful ways?”
“Annoyed, yes, but…”
Su Jinyu paused for a moment, then spoke again: “In the past, when you spoke with Moon Bamboo Peak Master, you were quite gentle and patient…”
Upon hearing this, Shen Han responded without thinking.
“She’s not Moon Bamboo Peak Master.”
“So, your gentleness is only for Moon Bamboo Peak Master… alright, I understand…”
Shen Han’s response was indeed a bit enviable.
No matter who it is, everyone would want to be specially favored by their partner, right?
