Wu Shattered Star River

The moment Jiang Han unleashed this saber strike, he knew that the Dao Ancestor realm expert who had attacked near Tianfu Mountain was the same one in the city.

Unsurprisingly, this saber strike directly shattered his physical body, and at that moment, Jiang Han self-detonated his body.

His entire being transformed into a rain of blood, scattering in all directions.

The attacks released by a Dao Ancestor realm expert were terrifying. Although the strike was aimed at the sky, the immense power still terrified countless warriors within the city.

The city quickly descended into chaos, with countless cultivators fleeing in all directions.

Jiang Han did not regenerate outside; instead, he regenerated within the Other Shore Space.

Although this was a small city, it was not the Starsea Association's territory but rather Human territory.

If this Dao Ancestor realm expert was not a Human, they definitely wouldn't dare stay here for too long. Therefore, as long as he waited for a while before going out, he could easily escape.

After regenerating in the Other Shore Space, his eyes turned cold.

His guess was indeed correct; the Starsea Association didn't want to recruit him but rather wanted him and Ye Wanqiu to take the blame.

Of course…

It might not be the Starsea Association's intention but rather one of the Seven Great Powers. The Qianjiao Sect might be secretly working for one of the Seven Great Powers, using the Starsea Association's name as a cover.

They wanted to kill Qing Niu, to cut off the Qingyu Clan's future, but they were afraid of the Qingyu Clan's frantic revenge, so they wanted Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu to take the blame.

Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu were both famous, and Jiang Han's features were very distinctive, and he indeed took action.

The Dao Ancestor realm expert who attacked used a powerful treasure to conceal their appearance, and their voice was androgynous, which would lead the Qingyu Clan to mistakenly believe it was Ye Wanqiu.

If Qing Niu was killed, the Qingyu Clan would only frantically seek revenge on Jiang Han and Ye Wanqiu and would not find the real mastermind.

The mastermind not only killed the Qingyu Clan's peerless genius, cutting off the Qingyu Clan's future, but also concealed their identity, making this action very perfect.

"The possibility of it being one of the Seven Great Powers is very high!"

Jiang Han secretly speculated that if it were the Starsea Association, it would be completely unnecessary.

Because most of the Starsea Association's members had deep blood feuds with the Qingyu Clan, and the two sides had long been irreconcilable, there was no need to worry about the Qingyu Clan's revenge.

Only one of the Seven Great Powers would be so secretive because they were still nominally subjects of the Qingyu Clan.

Once the matter was exposed, they would not only face the Qingyu Clan's bloody revenge but also be easily attacked by opposing forces, and the trouble would be great.

"Brother!"

Qing Niu, who was in the corner, saw Jiang Han sitting there in a daze after appearing. She plucked up her courage and flew over, asking Jiang Han, "What's wrong with you?"

Jiang Han glanced at Qing Niu and said with a wry smile, "Little girl, your life is really precious. So many experts want to kill you."

Qing Niu listened as if she understood, but not really. She timidly said, "Father and Mother both told me not to run around, otherwise many experts would want to kill me. I haven't done anything bad, and I haven't made enemies with anyone. Why do they all want to kill me?"

Jiang Han smiled bitterly and said, "Because your talent is too strong. The enemies of your Qingyu Clan don't want you to grow up. So they are trying to find ways to kill you and cut off your Qingyu Clan's path to rise."

"Oh!"

Qing Niu frowned, then looked at Jiang Han and said, "Brother, do you have a grudge against our Qingyu Clan?"

Jiang Han shook his head and said, "I don't have a grudge against your Qingyu Clan. When I captured you, I didn't kill a single Qingyu Clan member, as you saw."

"I said before that I only wanted a secret technique from your Qingyu Clan. As long as you give me the secret technique, I will let you go."

"Mm-hmm!"

Qing Niu nodded and said, "Brother, I believe you. You are a famous hero in the world, and you definitely won't lie."

"I am not a hero, but I won't lie to you!"

Jiang Han was somewhat lost in the repeated calls of "Brother," and his tone became gentle involuntarily.

He said, "Stay here in peace. I'll deal with some things first. There's a Dao Ancestor realm expert outside who wants to kill you. He just wanted me to hand you over, but I didn't want to, so I was attacked by him."

"Ah?"

Qing Niu's pretty face changed, and fear appeared in her eyes. She said, "Then you must be careful, Brother. You can't die."

"Don't worry, I won't die!"

Jiang Han waved his hand and then fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he took out a few jade talismans and crushed them all at once.

These jade talismans were given to him by Ye Wanqiu. If he crushed a few at once, Ye Wanqiu would definitely know that something big had happened, given her intelligence.

Knowing that something big had happened, Ye Wanqiu would definitely not return to the Tianwu Sect.

"I can't go back to Ning Province!"

Jiang Han had a headache. He wasn't sure if the mastermind was the Starsea Association or one of the Seven Great Powers. Even if he escaped, he didn't know where to go.

If the mastermind was the Starsea Association, then if he and Ye Wanqiu went to Ning Province, it would be like walking into a trap.

"Go to the Shenyan Clan?"

Jiang Han thought of a place to go, but what if the mastermind was the Shenyan Clan? Wouldn't he be going to his death?

"First, exchange the secret technique with the Qingyu Clan!"

Jiang Han quickly sorted out his thoughts. As long as he sent Qing Niu back to the Qingyu Clan, his danger would be greatly reduced.

The mastermind's main goal was to kill Qing Niu, killing him was secondary.

As long as he successfully exchanged with the Qingyu Clan and Qing Niu returned to the Qingyu Clan, then the mastermind would have no need to keep chasing him.

The Dao Ancestor realm expert just now wasn't particularly strong. If he and Ye Wanqiu joined forces, it would be a bit difficult to kill them.

"Leave here first!"

Jiang Han waited quietly. The outside was a small city, and unless the Dao Ancestor realm expert was a Human, they couldn't stay here for long.

Jiang Han guessed that it shouldn't be a Human; otherwise, they wouldn't have let him gather in Human territory.

After waiting for half an hour, Jiang Han flashed and rushed out.

He scanned the vicinity and found that the city was still in chaos, with most of the cultivators in the city having fled, and the city's defensive formation was activated.

"That Dao Ancestor realm expert is gone!"

Jiang Han breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Dao Ancestor realm expert had left, and he hadn't found Yan Shuangfei's trail either.

He immediately released the Star Flash Teleportation and left. He didn't return to Ning Province but instead teleported all the way north.

He was going to find Chenxi and have Chenxi find a way to contact Ye Wanqiu so that she could find a way to join him.

Chenxi was introduced by Lei Niangshang and should be reliable.

He teleported all the way north and arrived at Beaconfire City in five days.

Before even entering the city, he found two notices at the city gate. They were actually offering a reward for his and Ye Wanqiu's capture, with their portraits on them.

The crime was abducting Princess Qing Niu. Whoever could kill them two and rescue the little princess would be heavily rewarded by the royal family.

Seeing the reward, Jiang Han relaxed.

Since this reward could be posted in Beaconfire City, then the cities in the other continents besides the Eastern Ten Provinces were probably plastered with them.

Ye Wanqiu could definitely easily discover the reward, so she would know that something was wrong and wouldn't return to Ning Province.

"Enter the city!"

Although his reward was posted at the city gate, Jiang Han didn't care at all. He disguised his appearance, entered the city, and went to find Chenxi.
