After the four guards of Xiahou Manor fled in a panic, the scene where Tan Yun had just defeated Xiahou Can emerged in Chu Xiaosa's mind, leaving him so excited and shocked that he couldn't utter a single word!
“What are you standing there for? It’s late, you should rest. There’s a lot to do tomorrow,” Tan Yun smiled and said. After leaving a remark, he collected the Immortal Ring and all the Immortal Swords left behind from his slain enemy into his Immortal Ring, then stepped into the Four Arts Heavenly Pavilion.
“Wow, the boss is amazing! He even managed to take down Xiahou Can from the ninth level of the punishment immortal realm!”
After the shock, Chu Xiaosa's expression turned puzzled, “Since the boss could easily annihilate Xiahou Can, why did he only unleash that Sword Technique after getting injured?”
“If the boss had used it earlier, wouldn’t he have been entirely unharmed?”
“But why did the boss only reveal his true strength after getting hurt…?” As Chu Xiaosa contemplated this, he suddenly widened his eyes, slapped his hands, and exclaimed loudly, “I get it! The boss must have a masochistic tendency!”
At that moment, Tan Yun, who had just stepped into the Four Arts Heavenly Pavilion and was lifting his teacup for a sip, immediately sprayed his tea out.
“Ah! Boss, you wouldn’t really have a masochistic tendency, would you? Did I guess it right?” Chu Xiaosa chuckled as he walked into the pavilion.
Tan Yun was utterly speechless.
“Boss, it seems that Xiahou Can’s Immortal Sword is wind attribute. Could you give it to me?” Chu Xiaosa looked at him with expectation.
“Are you a wind attribute talent?” Tan Yun asked.
“Hehe, not only am I wind attribute, but I also have lightning attribute talent,” Chu Xiaosa replied with a grin.
“Not bad, kid! You have supreme talent,” Tan Yun said, flicking his fingers to unveil the Immortal Ring. In the next moment, Xiahou Can’s Supreme Immortal Sword flew toward Chu Xiaosa.
“Thank you, boss!” Chu Xiaosa was ecstatic. Previously, his weapons were just a wind attribute mid-grade Immortal Sword and a lightning attribute mid-grade Immortal Sword.
To him, having a Supreme Immortal Sword was something he could only dream of.
“Don’t mention it,” Tan Yun smiled, “You should rest for now. Once the shop is up and running, I’ll gift you a cultivation technique that suits you.”
“Okay!” Chu Xiaosa grinned widely as he went to rest in a VIP room on the sixth floor.
Tan Yun took out dozens of Immortal Rings from his Immortal Ring, filled with anticipation. Ultimately, he was not disappointed; among these prize Immortal Rings, he found a total of 1.3 million Low-Grade Immortal Stones and 3,200 Mid-Grade Immortal Stones.
More than 90% of these Immortal Stones were sourced from Xiahou Can and Xiahou Shuo’s Immortal Rings.
Tan Yun pondered, “With these Immortal Stones, I have enough to open the Four Arts Heavenly Pavilion!”
Then, Tan Yun’s expression darkened as he sat in his chair, playing with the wine glass in his hand, and sneered, “At present, I already have two enemies: the Treasure Immortal Pavilion and the Xiahou Manor.”
“Hahaha… If you want to deal with me, come at me! If I, Tan Yun, can’t deal with them, how can I talk about revenge!”
As the night gradually faded, three hours later, dawn broke.
At the Xiahou Manor, in a building marked “Steward Pavilion,” an old man in his nineties, from the ninth level of the punishment immortal realm, furiously addressed the four kneeling guards, “What did you say? The Second Young Master and Third Young Master were killed?”
One of the guards knelt down and reported, “Yes, Steward! The Second Young Master, Third Young Master, and twenty-six of our guards were all killed by Tan Yun!”
The old man was the steward of the Xiahou Manor: Han Yun!
“I’m furious!” Han Yun’s old body trembled with anger, “Speak! What is this Tan Yun’s strength? What is his background? Tell me everything!”
