152: Chapter 152 Deciding to Tie Up with Great-Grandfather

"Yin Thirteen is dead?"

In an inconspicuous teahouse in Modu Base City, the middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly.

He knew Yin Thirteen's strength better than anyone.

While his direct combat ability wasn't too strong, his concealment techniques and assassination skills were such that even an average Six-Star Martial Venerable would struggle to escape death.

Not only was Han Chunming unharmed, but he actually killed Yin Thirteen in return?

"It seems this one hundred million High-Grade Spirit Stones isn't easy to earn!"

The middle-aged man tapped his fingers rhythmically on the tabletop, muttering to himself.

Han Chunming is such a Prodigy; after these two assassination attempts, he must be protected by a Martial Saint expert, making it even harder to assassinate him next time.

At the very least, a Martial Saint expert would need to be arranged for the job.

He was starting to regret taking this mission.

But it was too late for regrets now; he had to see it through to the end.

The rule of their Thousand Kill Tower was that once a mission was accepted, it had to be carried out to the end.

Being a killer also required maintaining one's reputation.

"This kid has actually already comprehended Space Profound Truth?"

In the backyard of the Han Family, Martial God Han Qingcang also received news that Han Ming had comprehended Space Profound Truth and killed a Five-Star Martial Venerable, and he exclaimed in surprise.

This kid Han Ming's talent is truly that of a Prodigy; at nineteen, he has already comprehended three types of Profound Truth.

Perhaps he could even achieve a Breakthrough to Martial God before I do.

"Master, Young Master Han Ming is here to see you."

At this moment, a black-clad old man suddenly appeared at the doorway and bowed respectfully to Martial God Han Qingcang.

"Oh? My good great-grandson is here? Quickly, let him in."

Upon hearing this, Martial God Han Qingcang's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up.

Hearing that Han Ming had come to visit him, he couldn't have been happier.

This was the Qilin of their Han Family.

"Great-grandfather, hello!"

Soon, Han Ming walked into Martial God Han Qingcang's small courtyard and bowed respectfully to him.

At this moment, he had already transformed back into his own appearance.

"Good, good, good, my good great-grandson, hurry over here and sit."

Martial God Han Qingcang looked at Han Ming with increasing satisfaction, said the word 'good' three times, and pulled him over to sit at the stone table nearby.

Sensing his genuine affection, Han Ming did not refuse.

He followed him to the stone table and sat down.

This scene left the old man nearby dumbfounded.

It was the first time he had ever seen the old master be so close to someone.

He couldn't help but look at Han Ming twice more.

He understood the weight this young man held in the old master's heart.

"Qingyu, you may withdraw for now!"

After sitting down, Martial God Han Qingcang waved his hand at the black-clad old man and said calmly.

There were some things he shouldn't know yet.

Although he had followed him for hundreds of years and was loyal, the matter regarding Han Ming was simply too significant.

He didn't want a fourth person to know about it.

"Yes, Master."

The black-clad old man replied respectfully, and his body instantly vanished.

Han Ming's pupils constricted; he hadn't even noticed how the old man had disappeared.

Even his Space Profound Truth could not perceive it.

"What? Surprised?"

Martial God Han Qingcang also noticed Han Ming's shock and asked with a smile.

"Yes, I didn't notice anything at all, even with my ten percent Space Profound Truth."

Han Ming nodded.

"That is normal. Your Great-uncle is already a Seven-Star Martial Saint and has comprehended the power of rules. Even if your Space Profound Truth is special, it is nothing in the face of rules."

Martial God Han Qingcang explained.

He also wanted to take this opportunity to humble Han Ming.

He clearly felt that Han Ming's mindset had become a bit arrogant, which was definitely not a good thing for a Martial Artist.

Self-confidence is fine, but arrogance is a major taboo; he might capsize in the gutter one day.

Han Ming was also shaken upon hearing this.

That's right! Profound Truth is nothing in the face of rules.

Previously, he thought that as a Four-Star Martial Emperor he could cross a major Realm to kill a Four-Star Demon Venerable, and then Teacher Xue Muhan broke through to Two-Star Martial Venerable, allowing him to suddenly break through to Martial Venerable.

His strength had instantly skyrocketed more than a hundredfold, and his mindset had indeed become a bit arrogant.

Although he had the Cave Heaven World as his final trump card, if a Martial Saint expert wanted to kill him, he wouldn't even have the chance to enter the Cave Heaven World.

"Grandson has been taught."

Han Ming quickly stood up and bowed solemnly to Martial God Han Qingcang.

"Hmm, not bad. What is the matter for which you have come to see me this time?"

Seeing that he understood his meaning, Martial God Han Qingcang nodded with satisfaction.

"This is a bit of resources I obtained. I would like to trouble Great-grandfather to have someone send them back to my grandfather and the others."

Han Ming flipped his hand, and a Storage Ring appeared in his palm, which he handed to Martial God Han Qingcang.

"There is no need. Just keep them for your own Cultivation. You don't need to worry about your grandfather's side; I have already arranged for someone to send them resources every month, which is enough for their Cultivation."

Martial God Han Qingcang waved his hand and said.

Seeing that Han Ming still knew to prepare resources for his family, he felt a wave of relief.

Strong talent is certainly important, but having filial piety toward the Gu Family is even more important.

"Thank you, Great-grandfather."

Han Ming did not insist and put away the Storage Ring.

It would be perfect to fleece the System again when I give Li Xuewei something later.

He glanced at Martial God Han Qingcang, hesitating in his heart; he still had one disciple-recruitment quota left.

If he could bind Martial God Han Qingcang and teach him the Ten Thousand Dao Scripture, once he achieved a Breakthrough to Martial God, he himself would soar instantly.

But after all, he was his Great-grandfather, and a Peak Martial Saint expert; it was hard for him to bring up the topic of apprenticeship.

"What is it? If you have something to say, just say it. There is no need to be evasive in front of Great-grandfather."

What kind of strength did Martial God Han Qingcang possess?

How could the momentary hesitation in Han Ming's eyes possibly be hidden from him?

"Great-grandfather, aren't you curious why my Cultivation speed is so fast? I comprehended Profound Truth back when I was a Martial Emperor."

Han Ming gritted his teeth, made a decision in his heart, and looked at Martial God Han Qingcang, saying earnestly.

"Although I am curious, everyone has their own secrets and fortuitous encounters. I only need to know that you are a member of our Han Family; we will not ask about the rest."

Martial God Han Qingcang waved his hand.

He thought Han Ming was worried that he would investigate his secrets, so he gave him some reassurance.

"Great-grandfather, actually, the reason I can Cultivate so fast, besides my outstanding talent, is that I obtained an Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique that is above the God Rank."

"What? An Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique above the God Rank?"

Before Han Ming had finished speaking, Martial God Han Qingcang stood up in shock and exclaimed.

Where was the demeanor from before, that of someone who would remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed before them?

As a Peak Martial Saint existence, he had only ever heard of God Rank Cultivation Techniques.

Now that his own great-grandson was saying he had obtained an Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique above the God Rank, how could he not be shaken?

"You... are you telling the truth?"

He wasn't doubting Han Ming, he was just too shocked and wanted to confirm it again.

After all, a nineteen-year-old Martial Emperor was unprecedented; only by Cultivating an Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique could it be explained.

Moreover, Han Ming had no reason to lie to him.

"Yes."

Han Ming looked at him and nodded.

"Hoo..."

Martial God Han Qingcang let out a long breath, and it took a while for him to calm the shock in his heart; the look in his eyes as he gazed at Han Ming was complex.

There was envy, jealousy, greed, and a trace of anticipation.

He knew Han Ming wouldn't tell him all of this now for no reason.

There must be some arrangement.

"Great-grandfather, I would like to give you this Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique, but there is one condition, and I am a bit embarrassed to say it."

Han Ming looked at Martial God Han Qingcang and scratched his head, saying with some difficulty.

"Oh? What condition? Tell me."

Upon hearing this, a flash of excitement crossed Martial God Han Qingcang's eyes, and his breathing began to grow heavy.

He had been stuck at the Peak Martial Saint Realm for decades, not even touching the threshold of a Martial God; although he usually appeared calm and indifferent.

In reality, he was more anxious than anyone.

Who wouldn't want to climb a higher peak and see the scenery at the very top?

Moreover, achieving a Breakthrough to Martial God meant that as long as one didn't die, they would be immortal for ten thousand years, and their Lifespan would greatly increase; who could resist the temptation of eternal life?

Furthermore, the relationship between their Han Family and the Li Family had long been like fire and water, but the two families were evenly matched in strength, and he and that old guy Li Cangqiong had been secretly competing.

To see who could achieve a Breakthrough to Martial God first; if Li Cangqiong achieved a Breakthrough first, their Han Family would definitely suffer.

Likewise, if he achieved a Breakthrough first, he wouldn't let the Li Family off either.

If he had the Immortal Rank Cultivation Technique, his chance of achieving a Breakthrough would undoubtedly be the greatest.
