“Go ahead.” The waiter glanced at Ji Baiwei’s face and immediately lowered his head.

“Is the calligraphy framed in your shop really Perfected Han’s original work?” Ji Baiwei pointed at the calligraphy hanging on the wall.

“Of course!” The waiter subconsciously raised his head and stuck out his chest.

“Guest, you don’t know yet, right? Before Perfected Han achieved the Dao, he also had a down-and-out period of time. Back then, he lived in our shop and accidentally destroyed a courtyard, but the old shopkeeper didn’t ask him to compensate. It was just that Perfected Han left behind a painting as a souvenir.”

“I see.” Ji Baiwei nodded and asked, “Since you’re keeping it as a souvenir, isn’t it inappropriate for you to hang it in the hall so openly?”

“More than 30 years ago, a profligate son of the Li family took a fancy to our restaurant and wanted to snatch it by force. Although the boss of our restaurant was also from an aristocratic family, he didn’t dare to provoke the disciples of the Ten Great Families. In the end, the old shopkeeper had no choice but to take out this calligraphy.”

“At that time, that profligate son raised his hand to tear this painting apart, but he was stopped by the guards accompanying him. After that, an ancestor of the Li family came to apologize and killed the profligate son on the spot.

This matter caused quite a commotion back then.”

“Guest, you’re not a local, right? Many martial artists often mention this matter now.”

“Ever since that incident, the big boss directly gave the restaurant to the old shopkeeper. After the old shopkeeper passed away, our shopkeeper thought that everyone knew about this, so he openly placed this painting in the hall for the martial artists to admire.’

The waiter smiled.

“Lu Dahai is dead?” Han Zhao was stunned and blurted out.

“The old shopkeeper is not a martial artist. He lived to be 102 years old without illness or disaster. He passed away in his sleep. He’s really a blessed person.” The waiter felt that Han Zhao was a little strange, but he still answered his question.

“That’s right.” Han Zhao came back to his senses. More than a hundred years was like a snap of his fingers to him, but to ordinary people, it might be two lifetimes.

For Lu Dahai to be able to live to 102 years old, he was undoubtedly a lucky person among the ordinary people of this era.

Han Zhao only sighed because, in his subconscious, Lu Dahai was still alive.

Ji Baiwei glanced at Han Zhao, then looked at the waiter and asked, “Has no one ever doubted the authenticity of this painting?”

“In this big vvorld, who would dare to impersonate Perfected Han’s calligraphy treasure? Don’t you think so?” The waiter’s eyes were filled with longing and excitement.

“That’s true!” Ji Baiwei beamed.

“Alright, you can go.” Han Zhao nodded slightly.

“Guests, eat first. Call me if you need anything,” the waiter said respectfully.

“Brother Han, aren’t you going to meet the descendant of an old friend?”

After three rounds of drinks, Han Zhao stood up and left. Ji Baiwei followed him and asked curiously.

“There’s no need…” Han Zhao shook his head slightly.

Ji Baiwei was silent for a moment. She grabbed Han Zhao’s hand and said softly, “Brother Han, no matter what happens, I’ll be by your side. This time, I won’t go with you for the time being. We’ll meet again after you come out of seclusion.’

“Yes.” Han Zhao glanced at Ji Baiwei and nodded.

After that, Han Zhao stayed in Great Liang City for another two months.

As Ji Baiwei needed to deepen her connection with the Ten Kings Mask, she temporarily stayed in the Ji Family to cultivate.

In order to help Ji Baiwei control the Ten Kings Mask as soon as possible, Han Zhao did not hesitate to use his essence energy and hand over the tens of billions of assets he had accumulated to Ji Baiwei before leaving Great Liang City.

“That person has finally left! ”

Seeing the vast and grand aura coming from the golden ball of light that soared into the sky, the upper echelons of the aristocratic family in Great Liang City finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Although Han Zhao would not kill casually, he had the strength.

The Five Great Surnames and the Ten Great Families kept each other in check. Even higher-ups like the Weapon Master and the Spirit Summoner would abide by the basic rules.

However, Han Zhao could ignore everything. As long as he wanted to, he could attack any aristocratic family at any time.

If such a person stayed under their bed, it would simply make everyone feel uneasy. It was as if a fishbone was stuck in their throats and they would not be able to eat or sleep in peace.

Now that Han Zhao had finally left, although he could come back at any time, it could temporarily relax everyone’s tense heartstrings.

After Han Zhao left Great Liang City, he went to the Hundred Spirit Sect again to see Yu Xuanji. In the end, she went into seclusion again.

After leaving behind some pills, he returned to the Qian Heaven Palace.

After accompanying his family for a period of time, Han Zhao finally returned to the inner hall and began to enter seclusion to break through to the Grotto-Heaven Realm.

This time, the door to the inner hall did not open for a hundred years..
