Wang Shuren, who was enjoying his new Alchemy abilities inside the cauldron room by concocting endless pills suddenly felt the communication jade in his robe tremble.
Even though he was upset that someone had disturbed his peace, Wang Shuren kept checking the communication jade slip, as only important individuals in the Burning Lotus Sect could contact him.
"Older Han, what does the old man want from me?" This was the first time he had received a message from her.
"Older Wang, there are important matters to discuss.I will wait outside your residence." Elder Han's voice echoed from the communication jade slip.
"Important things?" Wang Shuren did not immediately go outside to meet him and continued concocting his pills.
Half an hour later, Wang Shuren closed the cauldron lid and went to clean himself up before seeing Elder Han.
Although Elder Han's status was only below that of Sect Leader, far above any Sect Elder in terms of seniority, Wang Shuren could not help but care and move at his own pace without worrying about him, he patiently waited for her outside. In the Burning Lotus Sect, Wang Shuren became a special existence that did not belong in the hierarchy of the Sect, as he was the only one in the entire Sect who knew how to concoct an effective 100% Burning Lotus Pill, as he was the only one in the entire Sect who knew how to concoct a 100% Burning Lotus Pill, the Burning Lotus Sect's pill trademark.
The Sect Leader had tried many times to get Wang Shuren to share the secret to concocting the perfect Lotus Burning Pill, but Wang Shuren would refuse tenaciously each time, even further said that he would leave the Sect if he dared to suppress her.
Losing Wang Shuren and his pills would be a tremendous blow to the Burning Lotus Sect, so the Sect Leader quickly gave up, allowing him to have something of an immunity line within the Sect.
In other words, even though Wang Shuren did not surpass the sect leader, he had greater influence over him in certain aspects, something that even Elder Han could only imagine.
"Sorry to wait, Elder Han; I'm in the middle of a pill potion." Wang Shuren casually greeted him at the door.
"Older Wang ..." Although Elder Han felt a little annoyed in his heart due to the lack of urgency, he still had a calm expression on his face.
A while later, as the two of them sat in the living room, Wang Shuren asked him, “What is your important business with me, Elder Han?”
"Do you know a man named Su Yang?" Elder Han headed straight to the topic.
"… Su Yang?" Wang Shuren immediately frowned. He did not expect his name to come from Elder Han's mouth.
Seeing his reaction, Elder Han could guess his answer and continued, "Although I don't know if you have any relationship with him, we have learned that he was the individual who killed Wang Ming, your cousin."
Wang Shuren's eyes widened in shock. How did they find out? Did someone catch him in action or accidentally leave a clue?
"What ... Is that all?" Wang Shuren returned to his calm composure a few seconds later.
"just That ... you say?" Elder Han's turn was shocked. This was how he reacted when he found out the name of his cousin's killer? Completely indifferent and uncaring? It was almost like Wang Ming's death didn't matter to him in the slightest.
"There's still more," he continued, "The Sect Leader strongly urges you not to pursue him for revenge, because it can cause a huge amount of trouble."
Hearing his words, Wang Shuren coldly snorted in his head. He would not chase Su Yang even if they threatened him!
"I understand," said Wang Shuren.
"That's what I said, right?"
"…"
Elder Han was speechless. He did not think that Wang Shuren would agree so easily; it was almost like he had no intention of taking revenge from the start! How strange it is for someone like him!
"If that's what you said about this important matter, then I will return to concoct the pills," Wang Shuren said as he stood up from his chair.
"Ji-If you don't mind me asking, what connection do you have with the man named Su Yang?" Elder Han stood up and asked hurriedly.
Wang Shuren looked into his eyes with a serious expression and said, "He's just a guest I met at the Burning Lotus Auction House."
"L-Then how could you be so indifferent? He killed Wang Ming, your family, you know!" Although Elder Han should have prevented him from seeking revenge, he could not help but want to know the answer even if it might make him seek Wang Ming's revenge.
"My family?" Wang Shuren narrowed his eyes into a frown.
"Just because we have the same surname doesn't make us a family! You should be aware of the original character now – selfish and disgusting things! Even if he was killed before my own eyes, I wouldn't think of avenging someone like him ! If you want someone to repay you then you can go find his parents! "
Wang Shuren's voice was cold and filled with disdain, explaining to Elder Han that he didn't care about Wang Ming's death, even feeling ashamed of having the same surname as him.
"A-I understand ..." the great elder Han was stunned by Wang Shuren's cold demeanor. He had underestimated Wang Shuren's personality.
A while later, Elder Han left Wang Shuren's residence and reported back to the Sect Leader, who was also quite surprised by Wang Shuren's reaction.
"P-Anyway, I was relieved to hear that he would not pursue the man named Su Yang for revenge.." The Sect Leader heaved a sigh of relief.
A moment later, he continued, "Let's just ignore what happened today and refocus on the Regional Tournament."
"Regional Tournament, yes. I heard the daughter of the Xie Family will also be there for this event."
"Rubber." The Sect Leader nodded, and said, "And it puts a lot of unnecessary pressure on all the male disciples, because they all want to impress him."
Elder Han laughed and said, "At least their motivation will be much higher when the time comes."
The two of them continued to talk for a few more minutes to release some pressure on them and forget about today's event before continuing their day.
Meanwhile, Su Yang had just returned to the Blossom Sect on board the flying ship. However, as he descended from the sky, he saw a commotion near the Yin Yang Pavilion, the residence of the sect leader.
There were foreign figures walking in and out of the building, and they were all wearing clothes usually worn by doctors/tabibs. Even more bizarre was how there were many Sect Elders standing outside the Yin Yang Pavilion with anxious expressions on their faces, giving off a gloomy atmosphere, which was not unusual, it was almost like someone was on the verge of death in that place.
"What's going on in there?" Su Yang decided to stop by the Yin Yang Pavilion to see the commotion for himself, so he jumped off the flying ship and used the Nine Astral Steps to walk towards the Yin Yang Pavilion unwittingly, instead, it appeared right above the building a few moments later.
