Han Cai mused that he was living the life of a proper young master. Then he frowned, wondering if he would be getting face-slapped soon. Han Cai sighed, his imagination was his own enemy. He had to assume the worst of everything, but then again, how would he be the Holy Son of the Murphy Sect if he did not see the worst and expect the worst?

After entering the inn, Han Cai ordered a fulfilling meal and enjoyed it in peace.

Elder Yan Fucheng was acting like a guard, taking his duties too seriously. He was the most trusted subordinate of Yan Rui and knew how important Yan Cai was to Yan Rui, so he did not wish to make any mistakes.

Han Cai enjoyed the fulfilling meal alone. It was not spirit food or any special food, but there was a pleasure on its own when you ate simple food during your journey. Han Cai felt this should be what's called soul food. After his soul food, Han Cai went to his room to get some rest. He was not planning to cultivate; he wanted to sleep. During this journey, he planned to live his life as a normal young master.

Han Cai closed his eyes and went to sleep, but in the middle of the night, his sleep was disturbed by noises.

Han Cai woke up, rubbing his eyes, and asked, "What's going on?"

Yongnian appeared out of nowhere and said, "Two Nascent Souls attacked. Yan Fucheng is fighting them alone."

Han Cai yawned and said, "Knock everyone else out to sleep except the attackers. Question the attackers, and find out what family they are from. Once found out, Blacky, go rob their family. We need money; we are going shopping."

After saying what he had to say, Han Cai went back to sleep.

Just like the Yan Family had their Yan City, a few thousand miles away from Yan City was Ren City, owned by the Ren family. The Ren family was one of the most competitive families of the Yan family. Both families always tried to undermine each other. It was not just the Ren family who competed with the Yan family. There were the Xie family, the Ma family, and a few other families as well. All these families were within a distance of a few thousand miles from each other. This area they belonged to was called the verdant province. Verdant City was the capital city of the Verdant province. 

This distance between cities sounded far, but for a cultivator's family with more than twenty thousand members, it was not much. Because of this, they always had to compete for trade or resources with each other, which led to many conflicts. Over the time of a few thousand years, many members had died and suffered on both sides. They conspired and tried every method to weaken each other.

Han Cai had been on the radar of all these families since they found out there was a Heaven-grade talent born with dual elemental affinity, and at eight years old, he was the champion of the younger family tournament. All of them had marked Han Cai long ago, but since Han Cai never left Yan City, none of them ever had the opportunity to harm him directly; they used poisons, but nothing happened to this talented seed of the Yan Family.

Ren family spies had found out a few weeks ago through servants that Yan Kai was going to Verdant City with a Nascent Soul and golden core guards. The Ren family had a special bone to pick with the Yan family, as one of their Heaven-grade talents had died in conflicts for resources a few years back. They had been looking for an opportunity for a long time. 

When the Ren family found out Han Cai was traveling by carriage, they sent two Nascent Soul cultivators to Willow Town, as most of the carriages from Yan City passed through Willow Town and stayed there for a day anytime anyone from Yan was going to Verdant City.

Today, by misfortune, the Ren family did not realize what kind of diabolical beast they had provoked.

In the main treasury hall of the Ren family, a shadow appeared out of nowhere without alarming any array formation. The cat raised its paw, and an exquisite earth-grade storage ring appeared in its tiny arm. The cat moved its paws, and all the treasures in the main treasury disappeared.

The cat moved and disappeared, reappearing in the inn, in the room in willow town where Han Cai was sleeping. The cat yawned and lay down in the corner of the inn.

After the cat disappeared, gray Qi appeared in Ren City. The Qi moved and reached the Patriarch of the Ren family, who was deep in meditation and did not notice the gray Qi around him at all. The gray Qi wrapped around the neck of the Ren family patriarch and swallowed the exquisite treasure, a red jade pendant that he was wearing. After swallowing the necklace, the gray Qi disappeared.

Patriarch Ren, who was deep in cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at his neck. He found that the Ren family's heirloom, a Heaven-grade defense treasure, had disappeared, and his connection with the treasure was also destroyed. Patriarch Ren frowned. He got out of his courtyard and looked around but could not find anyone or anything.

While the Ren family patriarch was worried about his treasure, Han Cai slept peacefully in the inn. When morning came, Han Cai went downstairs and demanded breakfast.

The inn owner, who had recently woken up, had a surprised look on his face. Last night, he had been awakened by some noise but was knocked out for some reason, only waking up in the morning.

The owner of the inn was not alone; the whole town had been awakened by some noise last night but had been knocked out. When they woke up, it was morning.

  Han Cai asked Yongnian to knock out people in the area where the battle was happening; Yongnian took the liberty to knock out the entire town.
