Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes-Chapter 210 - 209: Injuries? What Injuries?

Shen Han was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Who would have thought his thick-browed, big-eyed uncle was so capable?

He had underestimated his uncle...

The courtyard previously left for Shen Han was still reserved for him.

Every few days, a house servant would go there to clean the dust and keep it tidy.

Returning to the Yun Mansion really gave a warm feeling.

The whole day, his uncle and the Patriarch of the Yun Family were in the Pill Room and did not come out at all.

The Yun Family has indeed been quite busy lately.

Correspondingly, the status of the Yun Family has also risen sharply.

The next day, it was from the house servants that was heard that Shen Han had arrived.

Upon hearing this news, both of them immediately put down their affairs.

The guests who came to visit today were politely refused.

The chefs in the mansion immediately became busy preparing a feast.

In recent days, Shen Han had not been preparing to cultivate, but stayed by Madam Yun’s side, chatting about family matters and relaxing for two days.

Upon seeing Shen Han in the garden, Patriarch Yun approached with a smile.

"You rascal, why didn’t you inform your grandfather when you arrived~

Shuang’Er, you too, why didn’t you have a servant notify your brother and me?"

With a smile on his face, Shen Han saluted the Patriarch and his uncle of the Yun Family.

"Grandfather and Uncle are busy with many affairs; yesterday, I happened to be having a pleasant chat with Madam Yun, so I didn’t want to disturb you."

"There’s no issue about disturbing us, in terms of the Pill-Refining Path, you are much more talented than us.

If you come, it’s a consultation, not a disturbance."

Those words from grandfather elevated Shen Han quite highly.

Of course, this was what he thought in his heart too.

The Yun Family had studied this for decades, but Shen Han comprehended it in just one night.

This kind of insight is indeed incomparable for ordinary people.

"Grandfather, please don’t say that...

I’m not that amazing, you’re praising me too much..."

Seeing this, the Patriarch did not dwell on this matter. He knew that Shen Han was always very humble.

He had the house servants bring some chairs, and they gathered in Madam Yun’s small courtyard to chat.

"Han, though your grandfather believes that sooner or later, you will surpass Su Jinyu and surely be better than her,

I did not expect that this day would come so soon.

Your talent and potential are such that few in all of Great Wei can compare."

Shen Han slightly lowered his head: "I just had a bit of luck; that Su Family Fairy is still remarkably capable."

"Stop being so humble. This time, at the behest of the Imperial Court, you went to Yexuan Country.

Returning to the Capital City afterward should earn you some military merit, benefiting you greatly in the future."

The Patriarch of the Yun Family was also highly optimistic about Shen Han’s journey.

Great Wei has always valued merit-based rewards, and moving forward, contributions are indispensable.

Saying this, the patriarch shifted the conversation to the Yun Family itself.

"Speaking of which, your grandfather and uncle have not let you down.

Over the past half-year or so, the Yun Family has risen rapidly.

Now, the status of the Yun Family on the Pill path has greatly improved in Great Wei.

In the future, when you enter the court, the Yun Family will be your strongest backing.

If we can grasp a military force like the Shen Family, the aid our Yun Family’s pills can provide will be even greater!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Han smiled wryly: "Grandfather, you’re thinking too far ahead. I’m still studying and training right now; all those things are still far away from me..."

"Not too far, definitely not too far.

If you wish, entering the court is almost inevitable, and you might even hold a high position."

Both grandfather and uncle praised variously, making Shen Han a bit embarrassed.

Regarding the Pill matter, Shen Han mentioned that if there were such difficult-to-comprehend Pill Formulas or medicine-refining texts,

they could be shown to him for reference.

If fortune favors, he might be able to help the Yun Family rise another level.

Hearing this, both grandfather and uncle’s eyes lit up slightly.

If Shen Han dares to say so, he surely has the confidence.

Just after some thought, there indeed isn’t much they can’t understand right now.

After all, those Pill Formulas and texts that cloud both the Patriarch and his uncle are not many...

Additionally, many Pill Formulas are secrets within their respective families and cannot be passed on.

Shen Han could help comprehend them, but where are there so many profound Pill Formulas and texts for him to peruse...

Unless they could find some more Pill Formulas.

Shen Han took note of this, as he was initially planning to go out for training.

Moreover, with his mystical ability, exploring the Secret Realm should be advantageous.

Upon finding the Pill Formulas, it would be just the right boost for the Yun Family.

Without discussing much further on the Pill matter, the Patriarch’s concerns returned to Shen Han’s recent situation.

After surpassing Su Jinyu, Shen Han’s reputation made a great leap.

Even many unrelated people heard of this event.

The so-called Sword Dao’s Pride, Su Jinyu, was defeated.

But the Yun Family cares not about Shen Han’s reputation but rather the injuries he suffered on that day.

"Having traveled to Yexuan, your injuries must have healed, Han?

But now that you’ve returned, you should have a physician examine you.

If you need any nourishment, the mansion has plenty of pills~"

These words of concern from the patriarch made Madam Yun pause for a moment.

"Injuries? What injuries?"

After the duel that day, Shen Han had sent word to Madam Yun that he’d bested Su Jinyu.

But reporting only the good news, he didn’t mention getting ambushed by Luo Zuchen.

Upon hearing the word ’injuries,’ Madam Yun’s eyebrows instantly furrowed.

The Patriarch awkwardly glanced at Shen Han, not realizing his daughter was unaware of the injuries...

"Why do you always report the good news and not the bad!

The way you handle things, in the future, even the good news you bring will make me worry!"

Madam Yun was very unhappy.

Having been deceived like this, in the future, whenever Shen Han reports good news, she will surely question if he is hiding truth again...

Seeing Madam Yun looking at him with displeasure, Shen Han could only apologize on the spot.

He said many kind and soft words, only then did Madam Yun’s mood improve a bit.

While talking, it was already around 5:00 PM.

The mansion’s chefs had already prepared a banquet.

Not many were invited tonight; including Cailing, there were just five of them.

"By the way, wasn’t a wager mentioned before the duel? What did you ask of Su Jinyu?

The Su Family Miss is quite a beauty, and Han, you now match her well.

No matter how much dowry is needed, grandfather will cover it~"

When raising this point, Shen Han didn’t pursue the grandfather’s suggestion.

Instead, he looked towards Madam Yun and Cailing.

"Has no one come to deliver anything recently?

My request to Su Jinyu was for her to go to the Shen Family and retrieve Cailing’Er’s contract of servitude.

Because currently, Cailing’s identity still belongs to the Shen Family.

If the Shen Family seizes an opportunity to harm Cailing, we wouldn’t have any legal reason to stand up for her.

Even wanting to protect Cailing wouldn’t be possible.

But once that contract is retrieved, Cailing will no longer be a servant of the Shen Family, eliminating worries of the Shen Family causing trouble."
