Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 832: Chapter 832: Not Even Giving Face to the Grandmaster?

Mu Han Yan felt somewhat touched; despite knowing that his wife and children were still alive, Han Jinglun did not immediately rush to the Capital but continued to travel extensively for Nanyan Commerce. This was not due to indifference but rather due to his trust in her, and his gratitude towards her.

Mu Han Yan made up her mind; no matter what, she must find Han Jinglun’s wife and children, for she could not betray the elder’s trust in her.

Che Xiang knew that Mu Han Yan’s strength was the greatest reliance of Nanyan Commerce, so after discussing a few important matters, he fell silent, not bothering her with trivial matters.

”Alright, let’s divide the elixirs.” Mu Han Yan had already divided the elixirs into four portions while speaking, one for herself, with Huayue Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe receiving one each.

Han Yunyun’s strength was too low and her foundation was unstable, so it was a bit early for her to take elixirs.

As for Ye Lanfeng, with his level of strength, these elixirs would be wasted on him.

”Are these for us?” Huayue and the others finally noticed the divided elixirs and were somewhat surprised.

”You’ve just recently ascended, and your cultivation will be more challenging. You should keep them for yourself,” Zirong, feeling she owed Mu Han Yan too much, hesitated to accept his elixirs.

Jiang Yuzhe, however, didn’t say much but also had no intention of reaching out.

”Don’t forget your identities; you’re my personal guards. With your current level of strength, in case of real danger, is it me protecting you, or you protecting me?” Mu Han Yan glared at them, speaking mockingly.

Huayue and company blushed, knowing although nominally they were guards, Mu Han Yan protected them far more than they protected him. Strictly speaking, they were more like henchmen and lacked fulfilling their roles as guards.

”Thank you, my lord.” Huayue reached first, putting the elixirs into his arms.

Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe also took the elixirs, without additional words, but their eyes conveyed gratitude and admiration, not lacking in the slightest.

Han Yunyun looked at Huayue and the others with envy, knowing her foundation was too weak, and taking elixirs early would do more harm than good.

”This is for you.” Mu Han Yan took out a jade necklace and personally hung it around the young girl’s neck.

”I have a share too!” Han Yunyun exclaimed in surprise at Mu Han Yan.

”This is called a Dust Cleaning Stone, given to me by my mother. It has the magical ability to condense the Heaven and Earth Power, greatly aiding cultivation, so don’t underestimate it.” Mu Han Yan explained.

This Dust Cleaning Stone was given by her mother when she was young, to cheer her up. It’s greatly beneficial for low-level knights, but becomes less useful as one’s strength grows. Unfortunately, at that time she was a talentless waste, then surprised everyone with her rapid strength progression, thus the stone was never utilized, but it was just perfect for Han Yunyun.

”Thank you, Brother Han Yan.” Han Yunyun was touched to know that the Dust Cleaning Stone was a gift from Mu Han Yan’s mother, significant to Mu Han Yan, which brought tears to her eyes.

”I will teach you cultivation techniques. Train diligently and don’t let others bully you again.” Mu Han Yan said with determination.

The cultivation path is not only filled with obstacles but also danger. The stronger one’s strength, the more risks there are. Initially, Mu Han Yan wasn’t sure whether teaching Han Yunyun cultivation techniques was right or wrong. However, given her today’s behavior, both in terms of talent and temperament, there should be no concerns, so Mu Han Yan decided to teach her.

”Yes, yes, I will train hard and not be bullied anymore.” Han Yunyun, of course, knew that Mu Han Yan personally teaching her was different from Huayue and the others teaching her. What they taught were self-defense techniques, suitable against average people but couldn’t make one a master. With Mu Han Yan teaching her, it meant she was truly stepping onto the path of cultivation and possibly becoming a true strong individual. With joy and excitement, tears ran down her face.

Mu Han Yan comforted and encouraged her a bit, and only then did the young girl wipe her tears dry.

”By the way, Che Xiang, is Master Ji coming over today?” Mu Han Yan asked.

She promised to teach Ji Gaoxian the Star Illusion Thousand Mechanism Technique, having only taught him two hand formations so far, with many more to come.

Moreover, Zirong was still feeling uneasy, and she wanted Ji Gaoxian’s help in divining Yu Qingwan’s safety, to somewhat reassure Zirong.

Of course, she also knew that Zirong preferred for Mu Han Yan to personally divine, but Mu Han Yan was self-aware; sometimes disguising as a God-man to deceive outsiders was fine, but it wasn’t necessary to fool her companions.

”There’s no auction today; he’s at his Divination Shop. If there’s something urgent, they always send someone to invite him.” Che Xiang replied. He had no complaints, since Ji Gaoxian had agreed to help Nanyan Commerce, but it was not like the indenture contract with Qu Shanling, and Ji couldn’t ignore his own affairs. After all, everyone has their own responsibilities.

Moreover, truly asking him to abandon the Capital City Divine Calculator brand to join Nanyan Commerce might not be beneficial, as the name is what they most need.

”Then I’ll go meet him.” Mu Han Yan, of course, was aware of these considerations, and stood up to speak.

”That’s fine too. I’ve heard Shen Moce, Pu Tiandi, and Weng Yixiao, several masters, do not hold Nanyan Commerce in high regard. Master Ji hasn’t been able to convince them. If you go, you can show some real skills and let them truly see what we’re capable of.” Che Xiang said with a chuckle.

Mu Han Yan sweated internally; why did everyone have such blind trust in her, telling her to show them... The others were the genuine Star Divination Masters, while she was merely a God-man.

”What nonsense masters, so arrogant? Though young Ji learned only a bit from me, he’s still considered my descendant. To think they don’t respect even my descendant, come, let’s smash their reputation.” Mu Han Yan was feeling awkward when a voice echoed in her mind making her break into a cold sweat.

If she guessed correctly, this guy must have been a loud, troublemaking, and extremely protective person while alive.

”Quickly, quickly, young Ji is my heir, which makes them my grand-disciple. Fully ignoring the grand-disciple’s respect is plain betrayal of their masters and ancestors. Watch me clean them up and set things straight, yes, I’ll set things straight. Mu Han Yan’s cold sweat hadn’t even been wiped off yet when Star Illusion Thousand Machine excitedly roared, though only in her mind, it made her ears ache.

Mu Han Yan imagined a white-bearded old man with a giant axe, shouting and chopping and hacking wildly, both Left Azure Dragon and Right White Tiger on his back, in a scene of chaos, causing her to sweat heavily.

Since Star Illusion Thousand Machine was so thrilled to set things straight, Mu Han Yan had nothing to worry about.

Instructing Che Xiang to keep a lookout and send word at once if there’s news, Mu Han Yan and the others headed over to meet Ji Gaoxian at his Divination Shop.

Capital City Divine Calculator, the golden sign still dazzlingly bright, inside the room, the aroma of tea filled the air.
