In Five Immortals City, there are quite a few people who have heard of Ban Wu’s name.
When the news first came, many people did not believe it.
Those who know Ban Wu know that he has the strength of the Rainbow-Devouring Realm.
He is not someone the younger generation like Shen Han can compare to at all.
Moreover, Shen Han practices the Old Cultivation Method; who would believe Shen Han has the strength to deal with a Rainbow-Devouring Realm expert?
To say ’deal with’ is not precise; Shen Han directly took Ban Wu’s life.
In the yard of the Vice Sect Leader, today, four Deans, most of the Elders have come.
These Elders gathered together to discuss matters regarding Shen Han.
Shen Han could intercept and kill Ban Wu; hence, the evaluation of Shen Han must be reconsidered.
Ban Wu’s strength in Five Immortals City is what top disciples on the verge of graduating possess.
He is not comparable to young disciples.
But Shen Han indeed slaughtered Ban Wu.
The news that came stated this point for sure, indicating Shen Han acted alone.
In the yard, the Vice Sect Leader slowly rose to his feet and took a few steps.
"From this news, one thing is clear: we fundamentally do not understand the Old Method enough.
Each of you should reflect well on how arrogant you were before.
In your conversations, you always said Shen Han was just a disciple practicing the Old Method.
Now look, the Old Method seems not much worse than the new cultivation system.
Shen Han is nearly twenty years younger compared to Ban Wu.
With such talent and potential, why did we not realize it at all before?"
The Vice Sect Leader looked at the crowd with some accusatory meaning in his words.
The assembled Elders listened to these words without refuting outwardly, but secretly criticized in their hearts.
Clearly, before, he was the one most pessimistic about it.
As the Vice Sect Leader initiated such talk, what could anyone else do then?
After the words fell, the Vice Sect Leader’s gaze turned to Elder Sizhi.
"Si Zhi, you are closer to that child Shen Han.
If you have free time, chat more with him.
If you had told us earlier that he had such strength, we wouldn’t have..."
Upon hearing this, Elder Sizhi directly huffed.
"Vice Sect Leader, you should go yourself; I definitely have no face to seek Shen Han.
When he encountered trouble and held a grudge with Tiger Peak Manor.
We directly severed our ties with him.
Now we wish to get closer to him?
I don’t have such thick skin."
Elder Sizhi turned his head away, unwilling to talk more with the Vice Sect Leader and the others.
The Vice Sect Leader, hearing this, paused.
He seemed not to have heard Elder Sizhi’s displeasure and continued to speak:
"Old man is not asking you to get closer to Shen Han; although his strength is extraordinary, able to take action against someone in the Rainbow-Devouring Realm.
But ultimately, he’s still on deadly terms with Tiger Peak Manor; it’s not appropriate for us to get close to him now.
Old man just wants you to ask him and understand why this Old Method can improve so fast.
See if you can gather some useful information..."
The Vice Sect Leader’s words directly amused and angered Elder Sizhi.
"Your calculations are too loud, Vice Sect Leader."
When Elder Sizhi spoke, his tone even had a bit of sarcasm, as if mocking.
"What have we, Five Immortals City, brought to Shen Han?
Cultivation Techniques, resources, what did we offer others?
In turn, Shen Han introduced two, remember, two talents who broke the Eight Shackles.
After he offended Tiger Peak Manor, we immediately severed ties with him.
Now seeing others have some value, we wish to take advantage without paying any cost, is that right?
Even a fool would not give us a pleasant face."
