Immortal Supreme Sovereign - C105
“What a son should do.” Han Xiao’s every word was either because Han Xiao’s acting was too good or because Han Xiao truly cared about Han Xiangtian. Amongst these two reasons, Han Xiao was the one who was more worried about Han Xiangtian.
“Did you really not poison the emperor?” Han Yan Tian asked.
“If I was the one who poisoned royal father, then what did I say to you here? I would have already run away before you even saw us.” Han Xiao rolled his eyes and said.
“Alright. I will believe that this time, you will bring the Nine Revolving Poison Pill back to the Emperor, but Han Xiao, you have to come back to the Imperial City with me. ” Han Yan Tian said.
“Cloud Battleform King, I think you should be more concerned about how the Devil Shadow Sect will easily snatch away the hundreds of years old foundation of the Cloud Ming Empire.” Han Xiao said.
“What do you mean?” Han Yan Tian asked with a cold expression.
“I thought that you would have noticed that most of the people in the Cloud Palace had been replaced by the Devil Shadow Sect. I think that if you don’t stop the entire Cloud Ming Empire from becoming a division of the Devil Shadow Sect, if you don’t believe me, you can go back to the Imperial City and check if it is as I said.” Han Xiao said.
Hearing Han Xiao’s words, Han Yan Tian’s expression changed for a moment as he stared fixedly at Han Xiao, as if he was hoping to find some clues from Han Xiao’s expression.
Han Xiao also allowed Han Yan Tian’s gaze to fall on him. He was upright and was not afraid of slanting shadows. There was nothing he should be afraid of that he had not done.
For a long time, Han Yan Tian didn’t see anything wrong with it. He could only accept his fate and say, “I-I can’t let you follow me back to the Imperial City. Give me the Nine Transformations Poison Pill.”
Seeing Han Yan Tian loosen his mouth, Han Xiao faintly smiled and threw the bottle of Nine Transformation Poison Pill to Han Yan Tian, while he quickly left with Xuan Sheng and the other two.
Seeing that Han Xiao and the rest had disappeared, Chen Yu asked, “Did Your Highness just let Han Xiao run away like that?”
“Since I promised to not bring him back to the Imperial City, I must keep my word. After Chen Jiang returns to the Imperial City, you must take your people and monitor the three palaces. Zhe’er must report back to me in time if anything happens.” Han Yan Tian turned around and said.
“Yes, your subordinate understands.” Chen Yun respectfully said.
On the other hand, Han Xiao and the other three walked around the street before finding an inn to stay at. The next morning, the four of them went out together and headed for the garrison.
Returning to the garrison and seeing that the soldiers were exhausted, Han Xiao let them wait for the next two days to have a good rest while he thought about Han Yan Tian.
Compared to him, Han Yan Tian was clearly more familiar with Han Zhao, and more trusting of Han Zhao. Today, Han Yan Tian might only be able to make Han Zhao suspect Han Zhao, but to pull him from Han Zhao’s camp to his side, Han Xiang Tian would probably have to testify. That was why Han Yan Tian had given the Nine Transformation Poison Breaking Pill to Han Zhao, and asked Han Xiang Tian about it.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed. In the morning, Han Xiao was sleeping when he suddenly heard a commotion outside. After dressing up, he went out and saw a line of spirit beast carriages being driven towards him.
“Commander Han, the boss of the grain store is here to deliver the food.” Before he could even reach Han Xiao, he heard Xuan Sheng’s voice and raised his head to see him excitedly running towards him.
Compared to Xuan Sheng’s excitement, Han Xiao was much calmer, but when he thought about how his money was taken out just like that, his heart ached.
“Mm, I understand. Let’s go.” After Han Xiao indifferently said this, he followed the Xuan Sheng duo through the soldiers and walked in front of the boss of the grain store.
“Officer, this is a million taels of food, what do you think?” The owner said.
“Xuan Sheng, take this grain.” Han Xiao said.
“Yes.” After nodding his head, Xuan Sheng took out a storage ring from within his robes and placed the one million yuan worth of food into the storage ring. After doing so, Han Xiao gave the shop owner ten thousand yuan in travel fees before ordering people to leave the camp and return.
The two days before they returned were very peaceful. Even if they met a few blind people on the road, after seeing their formation, and Han Xiao’s Qi, those thoughts that should not have been stirred up disappeared, and they did not dare to go forward.
Without these people disturbing Han Xiao, he felt more at ease. On top of that, there was nothing much to do.
This day, Han Xiao had just ordered everyone to take care of their belongings when he felt a few hundred powerful auras rushing towards them. He couldn’t help but furrow his brows, vigilantly looking around.
“Tell everyone to be careful!” Han Xiao said.
Hearing Han Xiao’s words, everyone tensed up, vigilantly looking at their surroundings. They then saw the sound of rapid footsteps coming from the trees in front of them. When they looked again, they saw a group of people running out from the forest.
“Halt, Halt. The way you’re dressed is definitely yours.” The person in the lead wore a grey hunting suit and held an ancient halberd in his hand as he stared at them with a face full of killing intent.
“Who are you?” Han Xiao frowned and asked.
“Sir, I don’t need you to know who I am. You brat, you only need to know that the day of next year is the day of your death.” The bandit leader said.
“Just based on what you guys and I can see.” Han Xiao said disdainfully.
“You actually dare to look down on us? Let me tell you, we are here to rob food. Be tactful and put down the food. You all can leave, or else we will use force.” The bandit leader said.
“Grab food? “Before robbing, you should say that I was the one who opened this mountain and planted this tree. If I were to pass by and leave behind some money, I would buy it.” Han Xiao said.
“Yes, what nonsense is this? Brat, do you mean that you don’t plan to provide food?” The bandit leader asked.
“Yes, adding on these few pieces of material, I really don’t think much of you.” Han Xiao said indifferently.
“You stinking brat, what do you know? You must know that we West Gorge bandits are extremely famous. Who dares to disrespect us when they see us walking down the path? See if I kill you or not, brothers, charge!” With that, the bandit leader waved his halberd and ordered his men to charge towards Han Xiao, while the rest of the bandits followed behind him. They had not expected that this could be a trap.
As for Han Xiao and the bandit leader, they stood outside quietly watching each other, until a figure charged towards the bandit leader. The bandit leader subconsciously moved a little, and this time, Han Xiao also caught up, his hands bent like a pair of eagle claws as he clawed at the bandit leader.
