Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 438 Blind Date (Part 3)

"I told you, with your obsessive personality, I'm afraid you'll mislead even the most promising students, let alone others." Han Yi rolled his eyes in exasperation.

Meng Ren didn't say anything, just chuckled, still with his usual simple and honest personality.

Although he often uses foul language when he fights, which is disgusting, you'll find that he actually has a pretty good personality when you get to know him in daily life. He's straightforward and says what he thinks.

It is precisely because of this that Han Yi still maintains a good relationship with him.

Afterwards, Han Yi inquired about the area of ​​the wards that Meng Ren was in charge of as an instructor. According to custom, each of the twelve wards in Huayang City would have an instructor assigned to recruit talent for Jingtian Manor.

Meng Ren was in charge of Baiqiaofang, which was also the market town where the main store of "Meihuage" was located.

Perfect timing! Han Yi simply asked Meng Ren to keep an eye on the business of "Plum Blossom Pavilion." If anyone dared to cause trouble, he was to go and resolve the issue.

He didn't mention any reward, because he knew that given Meng Ren's love of fighting, being able to have a fight every now and then was the best reward.

As expected, Meng Renyi readily agreed with an excited expression. For him, this kind of work, where he didn't have to worry about anything else and only needed to fight and kill, was his favorite.

The two chatted and ate and drank for a while longer, and then, having had their fill, they prepared to leave.

Of course, as the meal drew to a close, Meng Ren, as usual, challenged Han Yi again, boasting that his martial arts skills had recently improved greatly and expressing great confidence.

Only Han Yi himself knows how monstrous he has become.

With internal and external cultivation combined, along with the formidable defense resulting from mastering so many genuine martial arts techniques to their peak, plus the unparalleled power far surpassing others of the same level granted by the "Heaven-Mending Technique"...

Even if he said he didn't have a special physique, no one would believe him now.

The result was obvious: Meng Ren was given a good beating.

Fortunately, Han Yi considered Meng Ren's current status and the fact that as an instructor, he needed to save face, so he didn't embarrass him. Even so, given the recovery ability of Meng Ren's Ironwood Body, it would take at least a few days for him to fully recover.

After paying the bill, Han Yi went downstairs, with Meng Ren following closely behind, grinning sheepishly and limping. But before the two of them could even leave Juxiang Restaurant, they saw a familiar figure standing in the bustling crowd in the lobby.

Huang Rong was standing next to a man in a brocade robe, whispering to each other.

It appears to be a family gathering, and the two are discussing the standards for serving food.

In the blink of an eye, Huang Rong turned his gaze and seemed to have seen him as well.

She raised her arm as if to greet him, but then, as if remembering something, she quickly lowered it and simply smiled at Han Yi.

Han Yi didn't mind, nodded, and calmly left the two of them.

The two had a decent relationship before. When they first entered the inner courtyard, they were both troubled by how to make money and often exchanged ideas on finding jobs and ways to earn money.

But Huang Rong gave up martial arts training, didn't want to struggle hard, and chose to get married and have children—that was her own choice. Han Yi had no objection to this; everyone has their own path, and as long as you agree with it and stick to it, that's enough.

"Brother, do you know him?" Meng Ren seemed to have figured out something and asked in a low voice, "I know that man. He's the heir of a small family nearby. Should I make some arrangements to help you get revenge?"

"No need, we're not close. We're just friends I met in the outer courtyard." Han Yi said calmly.

Immediately afterward, he and Meng Ren left Juxiang Tower and disappeared into the night.

Inside Juxiang Tower, the man in the brocade robe asked Huang Rong with suspicion, "Do you know him?"

"It's a junior brother from my previous sect. I guess he's here to take on a job or a mission," Huang Rong explained.

Since getting engaged, she has devoted herself to the wedding and rarely even returned to Jingtian Manor. Naturally, she was unaware that Han Yi had already achieved the fourth level of True Skill and was now an Inspector, holding an important position in the outside world.

"You should associate with these people less in the future. You're pregnant now, and your health is the most important thing," the man in the brocade robe said, as if he had thought of something.

"I know." Huang Rong nodded gently.

......

......

Meanwhile, in Huayang City, at the Jinyu Teahouse.

Inside the opulent teahouse private room, Fang Liuying sat by the window, looking down at the buildings opposite.

Linxiu Xiaolou, this dilapidated little teahouse, just happened to fall within her line of sight.

After watching for a while, she suddenly looked away and turned to the maid beside her: "Xiaohe, are you sure he waited across the street all afternoon?" "Absolutely." Xiaohe quickly replied: "I've been watching him here the whole time. That young master Han sat inside the whole time and didn't leave until the sun went down."

"What Young Master Han?!" Fang Liuying's delicate face was full of disdain. "He's just a lucky country bumpkin."

"What was he like in the afternoon?" she continued to ask Xiaohe.

"That Master Han..." Xiao He saw that Fang Liuying's expression was off and knew that she had said the wrong thing again, so she quickly corrected herself: "That martial arts master named Han Yi has always been very patient and unhurried."

"Oh, not impatient at all?" Fang Liuying raised an eyebrow.

"No."

"you sure?"

“I’m sure of it. Just now, I went to the teahouse across the street myself and asked the waiter there,” Xiaohe answered truthfully. “I know everyone in the teahouse across the street. They wouldn’t lie, and there’s no need for them to.”

"Hmph!" Fang Liuying raised an eyebrow, her disdain deepening. "A person from a humble background, upon hearing that they can establish a connection with my Fang family, will undoubtedly be overjoyed at first."

But Han Yi remained so calm, which meant he must be a cunning and two-faced person, trying to impress me with his stable character.

Perhaps he's still gloating, thinking his performance has impressed me, Fang Liuying. How laughable! What men haven't I, Fang Liuying, seen? How could his petty schemes possibly fool me?!

She instantly imagined a dramatic emotional drama unfolding in her mind.

Fang Liuying paused for a moment, then angrily took a sip of tea and continued to ask Xiao He, "Anything else?"

"And..." Xiaohe hesitated, as if she was suppressing a smile, "I heard from the shopkeeper that after Han Yi went there, he stayed for an entire afternoon, just drinking tea and not ordering anything else."

The shop owner also said that this was the first time he had ever met a customer who would make him lose money drinking tea…
