"Damn it, how could he ignore me!" Yan Yumo gritted her teeth, feeling a sour taste in her heart.
She naturally wouldn't say such words, so she could only maintain a tense expression, looking cold and distant, as if warning others to stay away.
"Hmm? Why do you suddenly want to go?" Old Yun said, glancing at Yan Yumo, thinking that Jiang Han might be doing this because of her.
Jiang Han rolled his eyes and pouted, "What do you mean 'suddenly'? Whether I go early or late, I still have to face it, right? The sooner it's done, the sooner I can go to the sect and become your disciple! Of course... I can also get my gift for becoming your disciple sooner!"
"Brat." Old Yun laughed and shook his head, then looked at Yan Yumo and said, "Yumo, do you want to come along?"
"Where are we going?" Yan Yumo blinked her beautiful eyes, curious.
"What does she need to do there?" Jiang Han glanced at Yan Yumo indifferently, his eyes filled with an inexplicable meaning.
"I'll go!" Originally, Yan Yumo was just curious, but after hearing Jiang Han's words, she was suddenly furious and said angrily, her face turning red.
Jiang Han took a light sip of wine and said leisurely, "If you want to go, then go. Why are you so excited?"
"Hmph!" Yan Yumo turned her head and gave Jiang Han the back of her head.
"Alright, let's all go together." Old Yun nodded and then said to the innkeeper, "I have some things to do. Since Yumo also wants to go, I'll take her to broaden her horizons. I'll come back to let you see her before we leave."
With that, Old Yun waved his hand, and in the next moment, he, Jiang Han, and Yan Yumo disappeared from the inn, leaving the innkeeper standing there in a daze.
"Whoosh!"
A dizzying sensation, and Jiang Han and Yan Yumo felt a brief dizziness before they recovered. Jiang Han was fine, but Yan Yumo was completely stunned.
This was the first time she had seen such power. With just a wave of his hand, they had moved several kilometers in an instant.
Is this the strength of a super powerhouse?
Yan Yumo took a deep breath and calmed down. According to Old Yun, her master was also at this level of strength, and since she had received the sole inheritance, she might one day have such power too!
Jiang Han looked at the scene before him and frowned. His adoptive father was the Emperor, so he should be living in the palace, right? But here, there was only a modest house, with decorations that were far from luxurious, only simple and ordinary.
The main gate was not locked but was tightly closed. On the gate, there was only a gilded plaque with no words on it!
"Where are we? Old Yun, did you come to the wrong place?"
Old Yun shook his head lightly and didn't answer, just walking forward.
Jiang Han had no choice but to follow. Although he didn't know what Old Yun was planning, there must be a reason.
Yan Yumo didn't even know what was going on and followed closely behind Jiang Han.
As the three of them approached the gate, the seemingly sealed door suddenly opened with a "whoosh," startling Jiang Han and Yan Yumo.
Old Yun's expression remained calm, as if everything was expected, and he simply stepped inside.
Jiang Han and Yan Yumo exchanged a glance subconsciously, then thought of something and almost simultaneously turned their heads, letting out a light hum.
As they entered the courtyard, the scene before them made Jiang Han freeze.
A very ordinary layout, with a courtyard in the middle, fruit trees on the left side of the entrance, and flowers and plants on the right, very refreshing.
This layout was very common, but Jiang Han was instantly stunned.
This... was exactly the same as his home! If there was any difference, it was that the courtyard at home was a bit smaller, and some empty spaces were planted with vegetables by his mother.
Almost instantly, Jiang Han thought of many things, making his heart unable to calm down.
First, it seemed that this adoptive father still loved his mother!
Second, Ye Qianchou must know where his mother and he were living now!
Third, if he knew, why didn't he come to recognize them? What was the catch?
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, and in the next moment, Jiang Han suddenly waved his hand in the air, and a crescent-shaped mask appeared in his hand, which he put on.
"Why are you wearing a mask?" Yan Yumo asked curiously when she saw Jiang Han's actions.
"None of your business." Jiang Han pouted.
"You... hmpf!" Yan Yumo glared at Jiang Han angrily, turned her head, and fell silent, sulking inwardly.
Old Yun also turned to look at Jiang Han. Seeing the "Demon Moon Eye" mask, a flash of divine light appeared in his eyes, and there was a hint of surprise on his face.
Clearly, he was surprised that the mask could resist his probing.
"I really want to meet his master and see what kind of person he is." Old Yun sighed inwardly.
At that moment, the door of the house creaked open, and a middle-aged man in white slowly walked out, a smile on his face.
"Old Yun's visit is truly a rare honor..." The middle-aged man's voice was gentle and magnetic, making people listen to him involuntarily.
"Ah... um!" Yan Yumo suddenly let out a startled cry but quickly realized it and covered her mouth, her beautiful eyes wide with shock as she looked at the middle-aged man, then turned to look at Jiang Han, her expression even more astonished.
Jiang Han's body also trembled slightly. Although he tried to remain calm, he couldn't help but feel a strong emotional impact.
The same facial contours, eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth... almost every feature was very similar to Jiang Han's. The biggest difference was the maturity and stability on the middle-aged man's face, which Jiang Han couldn't match.
In an instant, Jiang Han confirmed that the middle-aged man before him was his adoptive father!
Emperor Wenti, Ye Qianchou!
"Hmm?" Ye Qianchou's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he raised his eyelids to look at Yan Yumo but quickly turned his gaze to Jiang Han, his eyebrows furrowing even more, a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
"This young brother looks familiar..." He stared at Jiang Han and said softly.
Although he didn't do it on purpose, Jiang Han still felt a pressure, the kind of aura that comes from being in a high position for a long time.
However, Ye Qianchou's words left Jiang Han speechless. Calling him "young brother" messed up the generation.
"Senior, you must be joking. This is the first time I've met you, how could I look familiar?" Jiang Han said respectfully.
"Is that so?" Ye Qianchou raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Perhaps I've met your elders before."
Jiang Han nodded but didn't speak, his face calm, but inwardly he was rolling his eyes.
Isn't that obvious? You are my elder! Just look in the mirror, and you'll see!
Old Yun, standing to the side, was speechless and could only cough dryly, saying, "He is the disciple I'm recruiting for the sect this time."
"Oh?" Ye Qianchou's eyes lit up, and he looked at Jiang Han with even more interest, "I see, no wonder he looks so extraordinary."
"Then, what about this young lady?" Ye Qianchou turned to look at Yan Yumo, his eyes filled with wisdom, "She doesn't seem simple either!"
Yan Yumo felt a sudden panic and hurriedly bowed, "This is Yan Yumo, meeting Senior for the first time."
"Um." Ye Qianchou smiled and nodded, then turned his probing gaze to Old Yun.
"Her? Heh, she is not simple. She is the personal disciple of the 'Emperor of Assassins.' Could she be simple?"
Old Yun's light words made Ye Qianchou instantly show a look of surprise, and he looked at Yan Yumo with a completely different expression.
"Emperor of Assassins? He has reappeared?"
