Retrieving the Type 99 main battle tank undoubtedly meant that Ye Huan's life was no longer guaranteed. Therefore, Ye Huan would never agree to Han Liu's request and immediately rejected it without a second thought. He and Zhang Ren sat idly in the Type 99 tank, chatting away without any intention of going outside.
Meanwhile, an unusual scene unfolded at the Han Residence, the first family of Flame Sun City in the Southern Xiongnu Empire. The main gate was tightly shut, surrounded by numerous experts eyeing the Type 99 tank with keen interest. The servants dared not approach, going about their tasks without any intention of stepping forward. Even the two young ladies of the Han family, Han Xuan and Han Cai'er, merely watched from a distance, fearing that the tank's cannon might unleash another powerful shell.
At the same time, completely unaware that Ye Huan had the ability to protect himself even under a Ninth Level Warrior's command, Qin Hu returned to the lord's mansion of Flame Sun City with his Town Enforcers. The more he thought about how Ye Huan had extorted all his money, the more resentful he became. He decided to complain to his father, Qin Mu, the lord of Flame Sun City, recounting the incident in a woeful manner as if Ye Huan had robbed him and taken his wife.
Upon hearing that his son had been bullied like this, Lord Qin Mu was furious. However, after calming down and reflecting on Qin Hu's character, he realized that things might not be as they seemed. Thus, he decided to visit the Han family to inquire about what had happened.
With this mindset, Lord Qin Mu gathered his skilled subordinates and headed towards the Han Residence. He intended to find out why Han Liu had canceled their previously arranged engagement.
Five minutes later, at the entrance of the Han Residence...
Numerous servants blocked the entrance to prevent guests from entering at this moment. After all, if news spread that a Fourth-Level Summoner had invaded the Han Residence, it would lead to serious trouble.
Little did they expect that the lord of Flame Sun City would arrive at such a time. Seeing him accompanied by so many people clearly indicated that he was there to demand answers, leaving those servants unsure of how to respond. They could only send one person rushing into the Han Residence. Before reaching the Type 99 tank, he shouted loudly towards Han Xuan and Han Cai'er standing at a distance: "Miss! Second Young Lady! It's bad! The lord is here!"
The lord is here?
Inside the Type 99 tank, Ye Huan and Zhang Ren clearly heard what the servant shouted. They exchanged puzzled glances, not understanding why the lord of Flame Sun City would come to the Han Residence at such a time.
"I wonder if Ye Huan is being brought in as an external aid by Old Man Han?" After staring at each other for a while, Zhang Ren finally spoke up.
Unable to see what was happening outside and hesitating for a moment, Ye Huan thought Zhang Ren might have a point. After all, they had thoroughly offended Han Liu; it wouldn't be surprising if help was summoned.
With these thoughts in mind, Ye Huan wasted no time and began fiddling with the stabilized aiming scope on the Type 99 tank, wanting to figure out how it worked so he wouldn't end up being thrown into water and drowned without knowing how he died.
Seeing Ye Huan's actions, Zhang Ren appeared curious and asked him: "Ye Huan, what are you doing?"
"I can only study how to use this thing. By the way, do you see that button over there? Go press it and see what it does, then let me know," Ye Huan said without turning his head, still fiddling with the scope. He pointed at the control panel next to the cannon.
Upon hearing that he could operate such a massive machine, Zhang Ren was visibly excited. After all, a tank with such immense power was far more thrilling than a military Hummer.
While Ye Huan and Zhang Ren were busy trying to figure out how to use the Type 99 main battle tank, outside, Han Xuan and Han Cai'er were startled by the words of the servants. Both were somewhat at a loss, while Han Liu had gone to the backyard of Han Residence to instruct the servants after agreeing to help Ye Huan find the Ye family members.
After much deliberation, Han Xuan finally made up her mind to go to the entrance and personally intervene. If such an embarrassing matter reached the ears of the lord of Flame Sun City, how would their Han family survive?
Just as she took her first step outside, before she could even take a second step, the gate of the Han family was suddenly pushed open, and the lord of Flame Sun City, Qin Mu, appeared in their courtyard.
To be fair, as the lord of Flame Sun City, Qin Mu might not be as handsome as his son; in fact, he had a waist thicker than a barrel. However, being in such a position meant he had his own strengths. His gaze swept over the experts of the Han family in the courtyard before settling on the Type 99 main battle tank. He frowned slightly and muttered, "What is this thing?"
At the same time, Qin Mu's subordinates shared similar expressions of confusion as they looked at the Type 99 main battle tank. Only Qin Hu was different; being lecherous by nature, he immediately turned his gaze toward Han Xuan, calling out to her, "Han Xuan, I'm here..."
Fortunately for them, when Qin Hu shouted out, Han Xuan realized what was happening and hurried over to Qin Mu's side. "Uncle Qin, what brings you here?"
"If I don't come? If I don't show up soon, my daughter-in-law might run off with someone else!" Qin Mu shot a cold glance at Han Xuan. His words were harsh, but those familiar with him knew that if he spoke so bluntly, it meant there was still room for negotiation; silence would indicate serious trouble.
Hearing Qin Mu's words eased Han Xuan's tension. She smiled at him and suggested, "Uncle Qin, why don't we talk inside? My father should be arriving soon."
Nodding in agreement with her suggestion, Qin Mu intended to follow Han Xuan into the reception hall of Han Residence along with Qin Hu. However, before he could take another step, a creaking sound came from the direction of the Type 99 main battle tank.
Curious about the noise, both Qin Mu and Qin Hu looked over. The two were somewhat oblivious due to their ignorance; however, having witnessed the power of the Type 99 main battle tank before, Han Xuan reacted differently. When she saw that the cannon barrel—at least two or three meters long—was slowly turning toward them as it adjusted its aim with the turret's movement, she turned pale and shouted loudly, "Be careful!"
Before her voice even faded away, she dashed aside with her slender legs and curvy hips. Even those so-called experts from the Han family nearly mirrored her actions and ran even faster.
This scene left both Qin Mu and Qin Hu wide-eyed in confusion about what was happening.
Inside the Type 99 main battle tank, Ye Huan was speechless. It turned out that all the commotion just now was caused by Zhang Ren. He had barely figured out how to use the gunner's stabilized sight when he clearly saw the crowd at the entrance of Han Residence through the turret's rotation, instantly recognizing Qin Mu as the lord of Flame Sun City.
There was no way around it; if anyone claimed that Qin Hu and Qin Mu were not father and son, Ye Huan would be the first to disbelieve. At least Ye Huan thought they looked too much alike—both were plump and rather unrefined.
What intrigued Ye Huan even more was why the lord of Flame Sun City had brought Qin Hu here.
After pondering for a long time, Ye Huan still couldn't figure it out. However, just in case, he decided to try loading a shell into the tank's cannon again with Zhang Ren. Better safe than sorry.
Unbeknownst to him, someone was observing from the dark cannon barrel. At the entrance of Han Residence, Qin Mu's curiosity was piqued. He could clearly sense that the movements of the Han family's experts and Han Xuan were all triggered by the commotion from this iron box in front of him, which might very well be some kind of 'secret weapon' from the Han family.
With this thought in mind, after noticing that there was no movement around, Qin Mu quickly approached Han Xuan with Qin Hu, patted her shoulder, pointed at the Type 99 main battle tank, and quietly asked, "Han Xuan, what is that thing?"
What is that thing? Han Xuan also wanted to know what it was, but the problem was she truly didn't know! After hesitating for a long time, she decided it would be more appropriate to pass the question to Han Liu. She licked her dry red lips from shock and said, "That's something my father brought back; I don't know what it is."
"Your father brought it back? Could it be some kind of siege weapon?"
Upon hearing Han Xuan's response, Qin Mu furrowed his brow and muttered to himself before deciding to wait for Han Liu to come out before discussing it further. Meanwhile, Qin Hu was quite interested in the Type 99 main battle tank summoned by Ye Huan and couldn't help but glance at it a couple more times. The desire in his eyes to claim it for himself was clear as day to Ye Huan.
"This kid thinks once wasn't enough; he seems eager for me to extort him again." Looking at Qin Hu through the tank's sight, Ye Huan felt that the lord of Flame Sun City was brought here by Qin Hu and that it was very likely Qin Hu would tell his father about being extorted by him. As he thought about this, Ye Huan wondered if he could extort Qin Hu one more time so that he would fear him whenever they met in the future.
Just as Ye Huan vaguely entertained this idea, he noticed from a distance that merely looking wasn't enough for Qin Hu; he actually started walking slowly toward Ye Huan. This made Ye Huan's eyes light up as an idea popped into his head...
