Chapter 5

With an angry face, Emperor Han walked towards the Second Prince's room. He violently opened the door of the Second Prince's room and entered it.

Emperor Han met the Second Prince who was bathing in a pond full of flowers with the two palace maids. The two palace maids immediately left after seeing Emperor Han's arrival.

The Second Prince realized that his father had entered his room. He got out of the pool and then he put on his purple clothes before meeting his father.

"What's the matter dad meeting me in the room? Is there something dad is looking for in my room?" asked Han Wei.

"No need for small talk anymore! What did you do to your brother, Han Shu? My three subordinates who I ordered to watch him get killed there! What the hell are you doing ?!" Emperor Han asked angrily.

"What are you talking about? I don't know what you mean." Han Wei pretended not to know what happened.

"Good, from father's anger it was confirmed that Han Shu was dead." In his heart, Han Wei was happy that he had gotten rid of his brother.

"Don't act ignorant in front of me! You're the one who has been suppressing Han Shu for a long time." Emperor Han emitted a pressure of spiritual energy that was so intense that it left Han Wei lying on the floor under the pressure.

"Ugghh!"

"Dad doesn't have any evidence. Why are you accusing me? Aren't there other brothers who also pressured him?"

Emperor Han let go of his pressure and then said, "If I find any evidence, I will drive you out of this Imperial territory!" He moved away from the room.

"Please just search ... You will not find any evidence that points to me. I have done it carefully," Han Wei thought. Then he smiled wickedly.

The emperor went to his room and summoned his subordinates. After waiting for a while his subordinates came.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." His subordinates knelt in salute.

"You check the route of the First Prince whether there is an ambush or not. And also check the whereabouts of the First Prince whether he is still alive or not." Emperor Han's orders.

"Yes, Your Majesty." His subordinates disappeared from Emperor Han's presence and immediately carried out his orders.

In the forest a huge explosion occurred.

"Cough, cough." Han Shu was coughing because of the dust that flew from the big explosion earlier. The explosion turned the ground around him into a deep basin. Han Shu came out of the hollow still carrying the Blazing Flame Sword.

"Well, that was close ... I didn't expect him to be so stubborn to kill me. Luckily I took this sword, otherwise I would have died," he said.

Han Shu then threw away the Blazing Flame Sword because it had become an ordinary sword. Han Shu was still able to survive the explosion because he forcefully absorbed the sword energy to create a protective formation.

"Even though I still survived, absorbing sword energy by force weighed my body down a lot. Besides that I also got deep wounds but not too badly," Han Shu thought.

Han Shu walked around the area around the explosion in search of the storage ring.

"Now I have nothing. I hope that one of their storage rings didn't get destroyed in the explosion," Han Shu thought hopefully.

After searching for a long time, Han Shu finally found a storage ring. Then he took out all the treasures that were in it.

"Haaahh ... There are only 15 gold coins and 1 bottle of low grade healing pill ..." Han Shu was a little disappointed.

"I didn't expect this Emperor to do such a disgraceful thing. I will collect everything all over again." Han Shu was determined.

"Now let's go to a nearby town and have fun. In the memory of this body a few miles away there is a town some to the north. But I have to walk ..."

Han Shu then walked northward out of the forest and into a nearby town.

After three hours of walking, Han Shu finally arrived at the city entrance gate. The city is called the City of Winds. The City of Wind was one of the three great cities in the Han Empire.

The Han Empire had three major cities namely the City of Gold as the capital of the Empire, City of Wind and City of Silver and many other small cities.

The Han Empire also had many sects. There are the Four Great Sects that are the Pillars of Imperial Strength, namely, the Blue Cloud Sect, the Heavenly Dragon Sect, the Twin Eagle Sect, and the Ice Flower Sect as well as many other minor sects. Most of the sects in the Han Empire were the White School sects.

From outside the City of Wind, the Silver Fortress looks so sturdy with unique patterns making it look so beautiful that it spoils the eyes of the beholder.

Han Shu first got in line before entering the city. The queues were so long that Han Shu felt bored. Until finally it was Han Shu's turn to enter the city.

"To enter the city requires 2 gold coins!" said the sentry.

Han Shu gave 2 gold coins and immediately entered the city. The atmosphere in the City of Wind was so bustling. Along the way, there are always trade booths, both in the trade of food, weapons, herbal medicine, martial arts books and many others.

Han Shu walked around looking for an inn. After walking for a long time, Han Shu finally found an inn that was very busy. Above is seen a sign showing the name of the inn.

"Rose Inn, huh?"

Han Shu started to enter the inn. He walked towards the receptionist of the inn.

"Welcome to our inn ..." The receptionist greeted him with a smile.

"I want to stay here," said Han Shu.

"Lodging costs 1 gold coin per day. How many days do you want to stay?" asked the receptionist.

"Here are 3 gold coins, I will stay here for 3 days," Han Shu replied while handing over the gold coins.

"Please follow our servant, he will escort you to his room."

Han Shu followed the maid up to the third floor of the inn.

"Please come in ... This is your room. Would you like to eat?"

"Later. You go, I'll call you back when I need something."

"All right, then I'll say goodbye." After saying that the waiter left.

After the maid left, Han Shu cast a protective spell on the inn door so that no one could enter. Besides, people outside will not know what is happening inside.

Han Shu sat cross-legged on the bed and calmed his mind. Han Shu was about to refine the Sword Energy he had previously absorbed into his own Energy.

His current level of cultivation was only at the 1st tier of the Qi Formation realm as his cultivation base was destroyed. So he had to start over from scratch.

Three hours later.

BOOMM!

BOOMM!

Explosions occurred inside his body up to 15 times. His strength increased drastically from before. His current level of cultivation entered the 6th level of Qi Refinement realm. In this mortal realm, perhaps only Han Shu was able to increase his cultivation Realm in such a short amount of time.

Han Shu opened his eyes and then he grinned, "This is just the beginning. I'll be back one day."
