Zhao Huai said this to once again test the guard and find out what the relationship was between this person and Yan Country.

As expected, the guard’s face showed a thoughtful expression, and he sank into contemplation.

Clearly, Zhao Huai’s words had an effect on him.

However, Master Huang beside them chuckled lightly, seemingly unconcerned:

“Shopkeeper, you’re too emotional. In life, we always cross paths with others, and when disaster strikes, we all flee in different directions.”

“Of course, that’s just my opinion. It doesn’t matter where we make money, as long as we make it. Who cares who the emperor is? Besides…”

The middle-aged guard couldn’t stand listening to Master Huang’s words any longer and interrupted with an expression of disgust and impatience.

“We should leave, Master.”

His words cut off Master Huang’s sentence.

“What gives you the right to interrupt me?”

Master Huang scolded him coldly, clearly dissatisfied with his behavior.

He then glanced at the high sun and realized it was noon. Indeed, it was time to leave. So, he put on a smiling face and said to Zhao Huai:

“It’s time for lunch. I won’t bother you anymore, shopkeeper. The amount of money is not small, so just have one of your assistants deliver it to Laifu Inn.”

“No problem.”

Zhao Huai replied, watching the carriages and guards gradually leave.

At the same time, he saw that guard among the crowd, who looked back at him from afar. “Still no success, huh?”

On the street.

Carriages moved while the bodyguards followed.

Master Huang sat in his sedan, smoking leisurely and said coldly to the middle-aged guard beside him: “If you interrupt me again, I’ll deduct your entire month’s salary.”

“Yes, sir.”

The middle-aged guard replied expressionlessly.

Master Huang took a drag on his cigarette, trying to calm his annoyance. He then said in an indifferent tone, “Just follow the usual plan tonight. We’ll make a move after they deliver the money.”

The middle-aged guard asked puzzledly, “Master Huang, didn’t you already sell them the items?”

“What do you know!”

Master Huang flung his cigarette, and suddenly began cursing.

“He took my best batch of goods: the spiritual jade, the Treasured Tripod, and the other things he chose! Do you want me to lose money?!”

“Have I ever lost money on this journey?”

Master Huang boasted proudly, “Those who are afraid to buy or buying fake goods can be ignored, but those who dare to buy real goods, I will frame them as remnants of the old dynasty and make them return the relics. This strategy has never failed.”

“But this shopkeeper bought only genuine items!”

The middle-aged guard fell silent, not saying anything further.

Using this one method of ripping others off, Master Huang had made a fortune from those who dared to take risks.

He wasn’t afraid of others coming after him, and no one knew where he got his connections. He knew people in the capital city and wasn’t afraid of being arrested, but even if he was, it would only last a few days.

He then advised Master Huang, “Master Huang, this shopkeeper seems different from the others we’ve encountered. He looks like a kind man. Will killing him harm the harmony of Heaven and Earth?”

After listening, Master Huang took a puff of his cigarette and scoffed: “I don’t care if he’s a good or bad person. If he blocks my path to wealth, then he’s as good as dead!”

“Just do as I say, and stop talking nonsense!”

“Understood.”

The middle-aged guard replied, an inexplicable glint flickering in his eyes.

At this time, inside Huai’s pawnshop.

A red square wooden table stood in the center of the room, covered with steaming dishes.

“Husband, come eat.”

Yu Qinghan called out to the doorway.

“Oh, coming.”

Zhao Huai stepped over the threshold, his eyes fixed on the mouthwatering table of food, his appetite stirred.

Yu Qinghan picked up a piece of meat and placed it in Zhao Huai’s bowl, then smiled and said, “You’ve worked hard discussing business, husband.” Zhao Huai ate the meat and nodded slowly:

“Indeed, it’s not easy. This businessman is not a good person. He’s totally cunning.”

“You don’t know, the night-luminous pearl he gave you before was fake.” Upon hearing this, Yu Qinghan raised her eyebrows.

“I have to settle accounts with him. If he doesn’t die, he must lose a layer of skin.’

Zhao Huai thought Yu Qinghan was talking about reporting him to the authorities, so he comforted her:

“Forget it, I’ve taken advantage of him a few times too.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Qinghan’s expression returned to normal.

During the idle talk at the dinner table, Zhao Huai finally remembered the previous assassination attempt and asked casually:

“By the way, Madam, do you still have contact with your family?” Yu Qinghan’s expression tightened, and she shook her head.

“I didn’t ask deeply at the beginning, but what kind of conflict did you have with your family that made you leave home?” Zhao Huai had been curious about this for a long time.

Yu Qinghan’s initial reason was that she had become tired of the battlefield life, but Zhao Huai believed this was only part of the reason.

There must be some other conflict between her and her family.

It wasn’t appropriate to ask too much when they first met, but now that they were married, it was natural for him to delve deeper.

Yu Qinghan sighed, “What else can cause a conflict? I have two brothers, and we had a falling-out over dividing our family assets. After arguing with my father, he said that he no longer recognized me as his daughter.”

“I got the freedom I wanted.”

“Do you have any regrets?”

Yu Qinghan firmly replied, “No regrets. With my husband’s support, there’s no need to go back to my old home. The time I’ve spent with you has been the happiest of my life.”

After listening, Zhao Huai held Yu Qinghan’s jade hand tightly and said earnestly:

“Qinghan, I will treat you well.”

Yu Qinghan gently responded with a “Mm,” and then asked:

“Husband, do you remember when I said I would teach you how to cultivate?” “Yes, what’s up?” Zhao Huai replied.

Yu Qinghan smiled faintly, “I think we can start these nights. I have the cultivation techniques from my family, so my husband can start by refining qi and building a strong foundation.”

Zhao Huai looked at Yu Qinghan’s smiling face, deeply touched that she cared so much for him.

Now that he was still concealing his cultivation, he felt guilty.

What kind of fortune had he accumulated in his previous lives to marry such a virtuous wife!

Well, now was the perfect opportunity to gradually reveal his true cultivation level.

From now on, he could openly cultivate at home.

“That’s fine, no problem. I’ll rely on my wife.”

Zhao Huai smiled faintly and agreed.

Having finished their meal, Yu Qinghan eagerly pulled Zhao Huai to the backyard for cultivation.

It must be said, her way of teaching was unique.

From theory to the beginning, she had her own unique understanding of cultivation.

Yu Qinghan’s talent was vastly different from Zhao Huai’s. Unlike him, who relied on destiny to improve, she had genuinely and diligently practiced, hardly ever using pills to break through.

As a result, her foundation was incredibly strong, and her combat abilities were much higher than ordinary people.

“With this Qi-Cultivating Technique, my husband will be able to refine qi quickly. To succeed in the first layer, you just need to be able to absorb the spiritual qi from the universe into your body and transform it into true qi,” Yu Qinghan explained to Zhao Huai very seriously.

This left Zhao Huai in an awkward position, as these concepts were utterly basic, and he, of course, knew them.

However, at this moment, he had to pretend to be a novice and nod his head in agreement.

“Is that so?”

Zhao Huai thought it was about time, so he released his cultivation, adjusting to the first layer of refining qi, and pretended to ask for guidance.

Yu Qinghan’s hand gently touched Zhao Huai’s pubic region, feeling the flow of true qi, and upon confirming that he was at the first layer of refining qi, she exclaimed in astonishment:

“You’ve succeeded already? That’s great!”

Zhao Huai’s breakthrough gave her a lot of confidence.
