With a sense of helplessness, he slowly recounted his battle against the Human Skin Tree in the Northern Liang Mountain Range. In the end, Ye Huan also mentioned how he had inadvertently discovered that Zhang Ren and the others were surrounded by a large group of Professionals and had lent them a 'small' hand.
It turned out that after finally finding his way out of the Northern Liang Mountain Range, Ye Huan realized he had ended up over a thousand meters away from the entrance. In order to locate Zhang Ren, he summoned Barrett and used its scope to search for their position, only to find that those Professionals had turned their attention to Han Xuan and Han Cai'er.
Thinking about how Han Xuan and Han Cai'er had followed him to the Northern Liang Mountain Range to help him, Ye Huan felt a surge of anger. Without hesitation, he set fire to the area and wiped out all the Professionals he could find, ultimately using Barrett to rescue Han Cai'er.
Once Ye Huan finished speaking, Zhang Ren seemed relatively unfazed, but Han Xuan's eyes widened in surprise as she asked, "Ye Huan, you killed all those Professionals?"
When they arrived, Han Xuan had observed that there were at least a hundred Professionals at the entrance of the Northern Liang Mountain Range. Even if they were all Fifth-Level Warriors, that was still a significant force in the Southern Xiongnu Empire. How could one person possibly kill them all? It seemed too arrogant to even consider.
"How could I have killed them all? There must be some I didn't find," Ye Huan replied with an awkward smile, thinking that Han Xuan believed he was boasting. He said this to gain her trust since they were now part of the same team; it would be too much if they couldn't even trust each other.
Unbeknownst to him, Ye Huan misunderstood her thoughts. Hearing that there were still some Professionals he hadn't found relieved Han Xuan, who magnified the number of those unaccounted for in her mind.
After all, she always believed that Ye Huan did not possess the strength to kill over a hundred Professionals. She just didn't consider who had caused such destruction right under the noses of many experts from the Han family and then simply walked away afterward.
Not wanting to dwell on this issue any longer, Zhang Ren asked Ye Huan about his next plan: "Ye Huan, what do you think we should do next? Should we continue hunting magical beasts deeper into the Northern Liang Mountain Range?"
Upon hearing Zhang Ren's words, images of encountering Pink Butterfly under an aphrodisiac effect and being terrified by the hollow face of the Human Skin Tree flashed through Ye Huan's mind, causing him to shiver involuntarily. He finally spoke up: "No, let's not go there. I'll think about it when my strength increases! Right now, I need to figure out how to reach the capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire to rescue my mother and brother."
"The capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire?"
Han Xuan and Han Cai'er exchanged glances and nodded heavily before simultaneously saying, "No way!"
"No way? Why not?" Ye Huan looked at Han Xuan and Han Cai'er in confusion. He couldn't understand why they would say such a thing. In his worldview, parents and family were his most important people—worth risking his life to protect!
Furrowing her brow, Han Xuan knew it was right for Ye Huan as a son to want to save his family but felt compelled to share her impression of the capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire: "Ye Huan, five years ago my sister and I visited the capital. You need to understand that it is nothing like Flame Sun City. There are at least a dozen families similar to the Han family there. Not to mention that within and outside the palace are numerous experts—families with Ninth Level Warriors. If I'm not mistaken, they are likely imprisoned in the palace's Heavenly Prison."
"And that's not all. In the capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire alone, there are forty-nine thousand Regular Soldiers stationed there in various formations guarding it tightly. How could you possibly rescue your family and escape safely from the capital by yourself?" As if confirming what Han Xuan said, Han Cai'er added another point, citing numbers that left Ye Huan stunned.
Forty-nine thousand Regular Soldiers...
Thinking about this number made Ye Huan feel a tingling sensation on his scalp. Even if he charged in with a Type 99 main battle tank, it seemed like they could drown it with just their spit.
Feeling frustrated, he scratched his head. Since arriving in this world, Ye Huan had never felt so constrained. He could only turn his gaze to Zhang Ren, hoping to hear his opinion. To his surprise, Zhang Ren looked even more distressed than Ye Huan and suddenly questioned the two women, "Are you sure there are four hundred ninety thousand soldiers stationed in the capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire?"
It was no wonder Zhang Ren was so perplexed. According to what he knew from Huaxia Nation, the Southern Xiongnu Empire only had thirty-five Warlords and a total military strength of just three hundred fifty thousand. When did they suddenly have four hundred ninety thousand soldiers?
Realizing that both Zhang Ren and Ye Huan were from Huaxia Nation, Han Cai'er playfully stuck out her tongue and chose not to elaborate further. This made Ye Huan and Zhang Ren wary, speculating why the Southern Xiongnu Empire had gathered so many troops near the capital, especially since Huaxia Nation had remained oblivious all these years.
After a long silence, Ye Huan pulled out the 2012 Arms Encyclopedia he carried with him and began flipping through it.
Page twenty, page twenty-one, page twenty-two...
Soon, Ye Huan made a decision: he would head to the capital of the Southern Xiongnu Empire!
Of course, Ye Huan's intention was not solely to rescue Liu Ruyan and Ye Le; rather, he wanted to observe the situation within the Southern Xiongnu Empire and wait for an opportunity. Otherwise, if he only thought about it from the outside, he would never be able to save anyone. Action was necessary to create a chance.
After expressing his thoughts to everyone, Zhang Ren was the first to agree with Ye Huan. Then Han Xuan and Han Cai'er nodded in agreement as well. Thus, Ye Huan summoned a military Hummer, and the four of them got into the vehicle, roaring towards the heart of the Southern Xiongnu Empire's capital...
After Ye Huan and the others left, behind a pile of rubble where they had been talking, a Seventh Level Warrior cautiously peeked out. He scanned the entrance of the Northern Liang Mountain Range that had been nearly burned down and muttered, "Ye Huan, Fifth-Level Summoner, Huaxia Nation person, intends to go to the Southern Xiongnu Empire Capital to rescue family members. His strength... is terrifying!"
Having said that, this Seventh Level Warrior quickly headed off in another direction...
……
In the Nine Provinces Continent, selling information could yield far more money than hunting magical beasts. As two days passed, almost every street and alley in the Southern Xiongnu Empire buzzed with discussions about one person's name: Ye Huan! Even in the royal palace of the Southern Xiongnu Empire's capital, Liu Ruyan and Ye Le were taken from Heavenly Prison and relocated elsewhere for confinement. After all, if these two were really rescued, wouldn't that be a huge embarrassment for the royal family?
Unbeknownst to him, the Southern Xiongnu Empire was already paying attention to his next moves because of him alone. Meanwhile, Ye Huan was driving a Military Hummer on his way to the Southern Xiongnu Empire and soon arrived at an unnamed small town within its territory.
Getting out of the Military Hummer, Ye Huan and his companions decided to stay in this small town for about a day since summoners and warriors were also human; they needed food and drink too...
After wandering around the town for a bit, they quickly found an inn and walked inside. However, as soon as they entered, they overheard several people at a dining table near the entrance:
"Hey? Do you think that after two days have passed, that guy named Ye Huan will still go to our capital to rescue his family? I really want to get to the capital quickly and catch this good show."
"Who knows! I heard someone say he's a terrifyingly powerful Summoner. If he really has that kind of strength, it's not impossible for him to go to the royal capital to save someone..."
"Are you kidding? He's just a Fifth-Level Summoner. If he really gets to the royal capital, he probably won't even know how he died. Besides, we need to deliver something to the royal capital this time; it would be best if there are no troubles."
Upon hearing these words, Ye Huan stiffly turned his head to look at the group and stopped in his tracks.
As if noticing Ye Huan's gaze, one of the guys at the table, dressed in a light purple martial artist outfit and looking somewhat capable, pointed at Ye Huan with his chopsticks and shouted, "Hey, what are you looking at, kid?"
With that shout, everyone at the table turned their attention to Ye Huan and his companions, scrutinizing them closely. However, it didn't take long before their gazes shifted entirely to Han Xuan and Han Cai'er.
Noticing their stares and recalling their earlier mention of going to the royal capital, Ye Huan's mind raced. He quickly approached the man in the light purple martial artist outfit and said with a smile, "Brother, I just heard you say you're going to the royal capital. Could you take us along? Of course, there are benefits in it for you..."
As he reached the last part of his sentence, Ye Huan pulled out a Gold Brick he had obtained from the Han family and placed it in front of the man, giving Zhang Ren and the others a meaningful glance to signal them to cooperate.
The power of money is formidable. Just moments ago, the man in the light purple outfit had spoken rather rudely, but upon seeing Ye Huan produce a Gold Brick, his tense expression instantly softened into a smile as he asked Ye Huan, "Why do you want to go to the royal capital?"
Making up a story about being a young master from a family, Ye Huan pointed at Han Cai'er and said, "My sister and I have been studying outside for some time now and plan to return to the royal capital. The other two are my servants. I heard that recently someone named Ye Huan has caused some trouble, so I'm quite concerned about our safety on this journey. Since you all seem like skilled individuals, I was wondering if you could help protect us..."
"Haha, I see! You're overthinking it. That Ye Huan is just planning to go to the royal capital to save someone; he's not out to kill anyone. But if you insist on having us escort you, then we can reluctantly agree."
Responding to Ye Huan, the man in the light purple martial artist outfit casually placed one hand on top of the Gold Brick as if Ye Huan were begging him for help.
