Chapter 884: Chapter 777: Southern Heaven Continent Trembles (2)

The position of Xiaoyao Peak is unique, and everyone has heard of its past events.

The place of Xiaoyao Peak is now extremely desolate, with no sign of human habitation.

Going there to construct a cemetery naturally brings some fear.

Shen Han didn’t explain much, he simply offered ten times the usual reward and paid half of the deposit upfront.

After this news spread, the craftsmen no longer hesitated.

The previous fears were overshadowed by the generous reward.

After all, nothing is scarier than poverty.

By recruiting craftsmen in such a way, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu naturally spread the news.

Some knowledgeable people may have seen Shen Han or Shi Yuezhu.

Their public appearance quickly spread throughout Great Wei.

Many strong figures who heard the news hurried over to see if they truly returned.

At the time of the arrival of powerful figures from the Southern Heaven Continent, Xiaoyao Peak and the Yun Mansion were utterly destroyed, and Great Wei was shaken.

Those who managed to escape with their lives could only hide and conceal themselves.

The public appearance today has drawn attention.

People are unsure if it is true or false, and some want to see if it is indeed genuine.

This time, thirty or so craftsmen were invited to work together to build the cemetery.

Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu also wandered around Xiaoyao Peak.

Her Moon Bamboo Peak had been deserted for so many years and now looked somewhat dilapidated.

Looking at her former home, Shi Yuezhu was speechless for a long time.

People always have feelings; this was a place once lived in, now so broken, how could the heart not feel desolate.

Seeing Shi Yuezhu like this, Shen Han made an excuse to leave for a while and then spent heavily to invite some people from a nearby town.

There wasn’t any particularly troublesome work; just having them tidy up around Xiaoyao Peak.

After years of desolation, there were many dead branches and leaves in the courtyards.

Shen Han invited quite a few people, but working together, it might take them several days to clean up.

After all, Xiaoyao Peak is quite large, not a small area.

It took a full three days for the entire Xiaoyao Peak to be generally cleaned up.

Seeing the fresh start everywhere, Shi Yuezhu seemed to feel a bit relaxed at heart.

"Actually, I still want to come back to Xiaoyao Peak to live, though the current dwelling place is quite nice..."

Shi Yuezhu spoke softly, worried that Shen Han might not be willing, so she expressed it gently.

But upon hearing this, Shen Han immediately nodded.

"Then we shall move back. In life, we pursue nothing but comfort and ease.

Now we have nothing much to worry about; living where we want is naturally at our discretion."

During the cemetery construction, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu stayed on Moon Bamboo Peak.

During their free time, they also redecorated their residence somewhat.

On the fifth day, guests arrived at Xiaoyao Peak.

The first to arrive was the Dean of the Tianyi Academy.

Shen Han benefited greatly from Dean Tianyi’s care; back then in the Capital City, if not for the Dean’s protection, he might not have escaped Luo Zuchen’s threat.

In the small courtyard, since no attendants had been invited yet, Shi Yuezhu proactively served tea for the two, then sat beside Shen Han.

"You two..."

Seeing Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu sitting close together, Dean Tianyi’s old eyes lit up.

"As you can see, Dean, we have already become husband and wife."

"Good lad, indeed my judgment was right.

The folks of Great Wei have speculated for years, claiming that no nobleman could marry the Moon Bamboo Peak Master, yet you accomplished it."

Shen Han slightly turned his head to glance at his companion.

To be honest, Shen Han’s heart was full of delight.

Marrying Shi Yuezhu is the greatest fortune of his life.

The three chatted for a while before Dean Tianyi began to ask about their return.

Upon hearing it was to build a cemetery to honor the souls that had passed,

Dean Tianyi’s tone grew somewhat solemn.

However, amidst the hesitation, he suddenly looked at Shen Han seriously.

"Actually, you should keep this low-key; nowadays in Great Wei, many are aware you’ve returned.

The news must have reached the other side."

By "the other side" in Dean Tianyi’s words, he naturally meant the Southern Heaven Continent.

"Your Xiaoyao Peak and Yun Mansion offended the strong figures from over there; returning openly like this would be very dangerous if they pursue."

Upon hearing this, Shen Han merely nodded, then took Dean Tianyi to the cemetery.

Around them, several craftsmen were busy, not far away, a middle-aged woman knelt by the grave, head lowered.

When these craftsmen initially arrived, they were somewhat afraid and curious, but now they’ve grown used to it.

"This person is the villain who attacked Xiaoyao Peak and Yun Mansion, and the very master that Shen Ao acknowledged in the Southern Heaven Continent.

Now, I have destroyed her foundational strength and let her repent here day after day."

Hearing Shen Han’s words, Dean Tianyi’s face showed increasing astonishment.

"But I’ve heard that this person’s strength is comparable to a First-Grade Immortal, how could it be..."

"Nothing more than people exaggerating to stir fear.

The strength of an Illusion Realm expert far exceeds that of a First-Grade Immortal, the gap is considerable.

And within the Illusion Realm strength, differences are also vast.

You Wanying mainly cultivates poison skills, highly adept in using poison, can be said her attack methods.

Apart from some spear techniques, are all poison skills.

But if one’s not afraid of her poison skills, her strength in the Illusion Realm is unremarkable."

Shen Han spoke of her openly in front of You Wanying.

"Whether the Illusion Realm is stronger than a First-Grade Immortal, we can’t prove, but surely it can’t compare to the Second Grade Realm.

How could such a strong person fall into such a state?

Could it be a trick..."

Dean Tianyi’s expression was serious as he tentatively voiced a speculation.

Upon hearing this, Shen Han merely shook his head slightly.

"That the Illusion Realm is not as formidable as a First-Grade Immortal can actually be verified."

"How to verify? Could it be you, lad, have already stepped into the First Grade?"

Dean Tianyi chuckled, thinking he had voiced a joke.

But Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu kept serious expressions.

"Could it be true..."

"It is indeed true, I have already stepped into the First-Grade Immortal Realm..."

As he spoke, Shen Han extended his hand, releasing a power of laws.

All around was enveloped by the laws.

Dean Tianyi, a Second Grade Realm Immortal, felt momentarily deprived of his powers.

Decades of strength seemed to vanish instantly.

Having lived so long, Dean Tianyi had seen all sorts of situations.

Experienced all kinds of storms and waves.

But today, he was truly frightened.

He had only ever heard of a First-Grade Immortal in tales.

Unexpectedly, his former disciple had reached such a level...

"Without resolving these hidden dangers, how could we dare return so openly.

I can risk myself, but I won’t let those by my side risk."

Shen Han spoke softly, while Dean Tianyi was still in astonishment, taking a while to regain his senses.

"Originally, I thought after catching up, I’d insist you leave quickly.

There are many in Great Wei expecting to benefit by selling your whereabouts for advantages from the other side.

Now, however, you might as well let them come and see who’s causing trouble."

Nearby, the craftsmen worked busily, and the cemetery began to take shape.

From the appearance, the cemetery was solemn and dignified, no longer resembling a heap of neglected graves.

After chatting, Dean Tianyi also bid farewell and left.

Upon leaving, the Dean’s face seemed to carry more delight.

With the emergence of a First-Grade Immortal in Great Wei, the strength and status of this domain will elevate.

No longer would someone from the Southern Heaven Continent casually barge in and turn things upside down.

After leaving Wanhe Palace, Shen Han and Shi Yuezhu directly headed to Xiaoyao Peak.

On the Southern Heaven Continent side, the various sects were already boiling with excitement.

Xie Canxin’s strength is known by many; he’s a top expert in Wanhe Palace.

He ranks among the top in the Illusion Realm.

Yet such a person was easily suppressed by Shen Han.

When the news spread, many refused to believe it.

But many witnessed the confrontation first-hand.

Within Five Immortals City, Dean Sixin had returned to the sect.

The secluded Nalan Xing had also come out of retreat.
