Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 291 - 290: Ye’Er, You Must No Longer Be So Wayward and Free

Chapter 291: Chapter 290: Ye’Er, You Must No Longer Be So Wayward and Free

Some things are better left unknown.

Dean Tianyi and Mr. Zhong Nan are both smart people. Only by knowing nothing can they speak more openly in the future.

Actually, the two of them could also sense that Shen Han was giving them a hint.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have reacted so quickly and guessed it was Shen Han’s doing.

"Zhong Nan, what are the chances of a Fifth Grade First Snow Realm launching a surprise attack on a Half-Step Realm, in your opinion?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Nan frowned slightly: "That depends on how the dean defines success.

If success is defined as causing the opponent of Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm to perish, then it’s nearly impossible.

The difference in the realm of power is there. At most, the Half-Step Realm opponent would suffer some injury...

This is only if the Half-Step Realm expert is completely unprepared..."

Dean Tianyi nodded in agreement; he felt the same way.

"Moreover, Shen Ye, this child, is not an ordinary Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm expert, it shouldn’t be...

Pfft pfft pfft, what Shen Ye..."

Zhong Nan couldn’t help but add another line.

To be honest, although the two reached a conclusion, they still couldn’t quite figure it out.

While pondering, Dean Tianyi remembered that earlier, Shen Han had come to him, asking the tutors and himself to practice sparring.

A moment later, Dean Tianyi called the two of them over.

Their words further confirmed their previous thoughts.

"This child Shen Han, even before taking action, prepared so much right under our noses..."

Dean Tianyi had a wry smile on his face.

First, he sparred with the tutors to test his strength to see if he could launch a surprise attack on a Fifth Grade Half-Step Realm opponent.

After testing, he looked for the timing and the location.

He even considered all the possible ramifications after the incident happened...

"This child’s planning doesn’t seem like that of a young person..."

After a sigh, Dean Tianyi and Zhong Nan tacitly agreed to forget about this matter.

After all, this assassination matter was unrelated to Shen Han; it was Luo Zuchen who falsely accused Shen Han of harming his own brother.

...

After Shen Ye was injured, he also needed to recuperate.

Luo Zuchen let him rest quietly for a night, and came to his courtyard again on the next morning.

"Ye’Er, are you feeling any better?"

He said, as he handed over a bowl of medicinal soup.

Shen Ye didn’t even ask what the medicinal soup was and drank it in one go.

"I meditated and recuperated last night and confirmed that my muscles and bones were damaged a bit, which might take some time..."

Luo Zuchen nodded slightly, injuries were something that could be managed.

He, Luo Zuchen, was not afraid of being injured; as long as he healed, it was fine.

"Yesterday, did you get in touch with Su Jinyu?"

Shen Ye also nodded, "Just as Mr. Luo said, she still kept my Sound Transmission Magical Artifact.

I slightly mentioned that I encountered Shen Han’s assassination attempt.

She seemed a bit anxious and shared everything she knew with me."

Upon hearing this, Luo Zuchen couldn’t help but chuckle.

"Our Ye’Er surely has his charms, I didn’t expect that he could hold that youngest daughter of the Su Family so tightly~

However, the Su Family’s relationship with the Shen Family is becoming more strained.

This Su Jinyu might not be particularly suitable for you."

Shen Ye nodded understandingly, "I understand, Mr. Luo."

After a brief exchange, Shen Ye relayed the information he got from Su Jinyu to Luo Zuchen.

When he heard about Little Pool Immortal’s Secret Realm, Luo Zuchen was astonished.

It was rumored that one who stepped into the First Grade Realm of an Immortal.

The Secret Realm he left behind must be incredibly profound.

"No wonder Shen Han’s strength has advanced so quickly; did he learn Little Pool Immortal’s techniques within it?"

Luo Zuchen’s expression was quite serious; indeed, Shen Han was becoming more and more troublesome.

Upon this query, Shen Ye nodded in agreement.

"According to Su Jinyu, there were no Martial Arts Technique Manuals of Little Pool Immortal in the Secret Realm.

There was only a large collection of medical books and a Clear Pool.

Little Pool Immortal left instructions for people to comprehend the martial mystery from the Clear Pool.

In the end, neither her master Shi Yuezhu nor Su Jinyu could grasp the true meaning.

Yet it was Shen Han...

The expressions of the master and disciple were very solemn.

Things left by an Immortal like Little Pool Immortal, were actually comprehended by Shen Han.

"Had I known, when we couldn’t enter that Secret Realm, we should have destroyed the entrance completely.

Not letting such an opportunity be left in vain for Shen Han."

Luo Zuchen said regretfully, feeling a sense of loss.

At this point, Luo Zuchen’s gaze turned to Shen Ye.

"Ye’Er, in your future cultivation and training, you should not be as carefree as now.

Shen Han, having successfully ambushed you once, may do so a second time.

The moves he learned from Little Pool Immortal have great restraint over the abnormal phenomena you’ve summoned.

Moreover, Shen Han has long known that I harbor murderous intent towards him and has long decided to go all out.

From now on, your practice should coincide with my path."

Shen Ye wanted to say something, but after considering it, he remained silent.

To be honest, he was feeling quite embarrassed now.

Shen Han, Shen Family’s Shen Han...

Someone who once, in the Shen Mansion, didn’t even have the qualification to speak to him.

And now, he found himself afraid of him, worried about threats to his own life from him.

It sounds a bit ridiculous, but indeed, it is true.

After pondering for a moment, Shen Ye seemed to still be unable to hold it in.

He looked up at Luo Zuchen, "Mr. Luo, has my current strength reached the point where I need to guard against Shen Han...

If that’s the case, what right do I have to talk about arrogance and pride..."

Standing atop a mountain, looking down at everything from above.

But one day, he discovered that the person he looked down upon was standing by his side.

That sense of loss was as painful as a sharp pain piercing the heart.

As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.

Seeing Shen Ye like this, Luo Zuchen could only step forward to comfort him.

"Ye’Er, the path of cultivation is a long journey.

Historically, there have been countless youths touted to the skies.

But in the end, how many managed to go further?

In my day, I offended many geniuses as well.

Many of them were more talented than me. They all vowed they would avenge themselves against me.

But in the end? I broke one’s leg, disabled some others’ hands, and gouged out the eyes of a few more.

What are geniuses? What if they show their talent?

When encountering danger, we avoid it; there’s no need to risk our lives for arrogance and pride."

Luo Zuchen was lecturing Shen Ye, though he had gone through all this when he was young.

One will always encounter people more talented than oneself.

One must make sense of cultivation.

Otherwise, falling into a cycle of self-doubt and denial, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"As for Shen Han, I will deal with him quickly, so this hidden danger doesn’t linger.

If you have ideas, you can tell me too.

Whether to break his limbs, or how to handle him?

Feel free to suggest, I will try my best to satisfy your desires.

To ease the hatred in your heart."
