"Motherf * cker! If you don't get out of my way, I'm going to beat you to death!" Iron Hammer spoke in the common language of the universe. He swung his hammer to chase Han Sen out of the shop.
Exquisite watched Han Sen being chased out of the shop. He was drenched in water, and his fox ears were wet. She smiled.
Han Sen saw Exquisite smile, and he said, "You should smile more. You look much better when you smile."
Ling Long's expression changed slightly, and the smile on her face disappeared. She regained her usual indifference.
"Now that Black King City is in this state, it won't be easy for you to take any more treasures from it. Think about it. If you are willing to return to the Very High with me, I can promise you that you will receive a deified treasure," Exquisite said, her face emotionless.
"I want to try it myself." Han Sen wiped the water off his face.
He had just walked into the blacksmith's shop and asked if the anvil was for sale. Then, the muscular blacksmith threw a bucket of water at his face. The blacksmith almost hit him with his hammer.
Han Sen wasn't angry. If someone wanted to steal his family's treasure, Han Sen would have done the same. He would have been more excited than the blacksmith.
Han Sen walked around Black King City a few more times, but he didn't find anything. Before night fell, Han Sen had to leave the city.
There was no danger in Black King City, but that was only during the day. If Han Sen decided to stay in Black King City at night, he might not be able to find his body.
A long time ago, when White Jade Jing was first discovered, students of Sky Palace went to Black King City to spend the night there. They disappeared without a trace, and even the deified elites who were sent to investigate never returned. So, it was forbidden to spend the night in Black King City. You had to leave before the sun went down.
Han Sen hadn't found anything, and Exquisite wasn't looking for treasure. She was just observing Han Sen.
After that, Han Sen didn't care much about Black King City anymore. He spent most of his time in the seventh tower, studying books. He didn't go to Black King City for the next few days.
Han Sen had been studying the Dao book for quite some time now. However, the content of the Dao book was vast and profound. It changed every day. No matter how he looked at it, it would never repeat itself. Thus, he did not find it boring.
The words on the book were similar to the Kingese on the king tree of the Extreme King. Han Sen didn't recognize them, but he knew what they meant.
However, if one were to copy these words and look at them again, they would not feel any meaning. It was really mysterious.
A year passed quickly. It was one of the most peaceful years Han Sen had had in recent years. He had been recovering, reading books, and practicing. Sometimes, he would go to Black King City. There were no fights, and there was no blood. Han Sen felt as if his body had become lazy.
After a year of recovery, Han Sen's damaged body had mostly recovered. He read the seventh tower's book in its entirety.
What troubled Han Sen the most was that the Charming God's Jian was getting stronger. It was changing Han Sen's body.
His appearance hadn't changed much. He still had his beast ears and beast tail. He didn't look like a beast anywhere else.
But Han Sen could clearly feel that something was different about the man's eyes.
Han Sen did not know how to describe it. Using the word "flirtatious" was not the right word. But when he looked at people, especially women, it was easy for people to think he was flirting or flirting with them.
When he talked to the Yun sisters, Yun Suyi would look at him, and she'd blush and lower her head. She wouldn't look at him again.
Yun Sushang didn't show it, but she didn't come to Han Sen as often as before.
"If this keeps going on, people will think I'm a playboy."
Han Sen felt bad. There were fewer and fewer women around him. Even Ling Long didn't visit him often.
"Are you the Charming God's Jian or the Bachelor's Jian?
If you keep going like this, aside from my wife, no woman will want to talk to me. "Han Sen held the Charming God's Jian and waved it around.
Fortunately, Han Sen wasn't interested in women, so he didn't mind.
Han Sen was bored at home, so he decided to take a walk around Black King City.
"Brother Bull, how's business today?" Han Sen walked to the blacksmith shop and greeted the blacksmith with a smile.
"None of your business." Big Brother Bull grunted coldly.
"Tell me when you're going to sell the anvil. We can talk about the price." Han Sen wasn't angry, and he smiled as he spoke.
"Wait until your next life," Big Brother Bull retorted.
Over the past year, Han Sen had been visiting the city every few days. He didn't want to steal the anvil, and he just wanted to build a good relationship with the people. If he could get a treasure, that would be great. If he couldn't, it didn't matter. He was there to relax.
In the beginning, the people of the city didn't like Han Sen, who was an outsider. They even hated him.
But Han Sen had been there for a long time, and the people had gotten used to his presence. Although they were still very wary of him, they didn't hate him as much as they used to. The blacksmith, Boss Bull, would talk to him now and then.
Although the tone of their conversation was rather harsh, they were still communicating with him after all.
Han Sen walked around the city like he always did.
Han Sen was familiar with every blade of grass and tree there, but he was unable to find anything particularly noteworthy.
He had heard that when Black King City was first discovered, there were many good things to be found. Even a random brick could be a treasure.
But there were too many people in Sky Palace. It had been a long time, and they had taken everything they could. The things that remained were like anvils. They were difficult to obtain.
"Little Brother Han, come here."
Han Sen was walking down an alley when he heard a wooden door open. A woman in her thirties waved at him. She was wearing a floral dress, and her hair was tied up in a bun.
Han Sen recognized the woman. She was Old Liu's wife. He had heard that not long after she married, the man of the Liu family died. She had been a widow ever since, so the people of the city called her Widow Liu.
"What can I do for you?"
Han Sen quickly walked over to her. He hadn't wasted a year coming here. According to what he had heard, Widow Liu's family had a family heirloom.
Many people in Sky Palace had tried to get their hands on the Liu family heirloom, but none of them had succeeded.
Han Sen thought that Widow Liu was the only one left of the Liu family. Perhaps he could get his hands on the heirloom.
When he entered the door, Widow Liu slammed the door shut. She jumped on Han Sen like a female wolf. She wrapped herself around Han Sen like an octopus.
