When He Yiming walked out of a street, his face had completely changed.
At this moment, no matter which angle one looked at him, he looked like a burly man over 40 years old, and even his height had grown out of thin air.
When he left the shop, he casually took a set of long robes, and his figure was specially made to match this set of long robes, so it looked very fitting.
Although he had practiced the Bone Metamorphosis Technique, the fact that he could easily do this had a lot to do with the fact that he had stepped into the Innate Realm.
Fan Haoyue and the other two were walking on the street unprepared. Not to mention that they did not know that there was such a malefic star behind them, even if they knew, how could they escape from the pursuit of an Innate Expert?
He Yiming quickened his pace, and in a few moments, he had already caught up with the three of them.
He turned around and bought a pot of inferior wine from a small wine shop at the corner of another street. Then, he sprinkled some on his clothes and walked in the opposite direction.
At the corner of a street, he burped and stopped, and his eyes seemed to have become blurred.
He was slowly counting in his heart, but his ears were paying attention to the footsteps of the three people.
When one's strength reached such a level, one could judge many things just by the sounds that came from his ears.
Although He Yiming did not know the purpose of Fan Haoyue and the other two, he could feel in advance the direction they were going to go in the next moment from their footsteps.
When a person's footsteps landed, there was actually an extremely subtle difference between the degree of turning and walking straight. Naturally, ordinary people would not be able to feel it, but if an Innate Expert paid a little attention, it would be easy to distinguish it.
Perhaps some people who had undergone a long period of special training could also do this. However, Xiantian Realm experts could easily achieve this with their own strength. This ability was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Just like at this moment, He Yiming knew that Fan Haoyue would walk straight.
Finally, a mischievous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth as he staggered out of the street.
"Bang …"
Fan Haoyue was walking, and when she passed by a street, a drunken man stumbled out from inside.
He frowned and subconsciously wanted to dodge, but for some reason, he suddenly realized that no matter which direction he dodged in, it was very difficult to dodge.
This thought only flashed in his mind for a moment, but it did not attract his attention.
He raised his leg and was about to kick him. Then, at this moment, his supporting leg inexplicably slipped, and his other leg naturally missed its target. Not only that, but his body also collided with the drunkard.
Fan Haoyue's vision went black. He felt as if he had bumped into an iron plate. His eyes were shining with golden light.
Fortunately, the two attendants behind him reacted quickly and caught Fan Haoyue before he fell.
"Young master, young master …"
The two attendants cried out worriedly. It seemed that the collision was not light.
However, the drunkard who bumped into him was also hugging his head and groaning in pain. It was obvious that he was not much better off than the Second Young Master.
Fan Haoyue shook his head and seemed to have sobered up a little. However, he immediately regretted waking up. This collision was so powerful that it actually caused his entire body to faintly ache.
He was furious and glared in front of him. The drunkard had already stood up shakily, and his expression was as innocent as it could be.
"You, you guys … Why, did you have to bump, bump into me?"
Fan Haoyue felt a surge of anger. He had always been the one to wrongly accuse others, since when had anyone dared to accuse him?
"Beat, beat him, beat him hard …" A voice filled with resentment spat out coldly from the gaps between his teeth.
The two attendants looked at each other. One of them continued to support Fan Haoyue, while the other smiled bitterly and took a few steps forward.
As if he realized that something was wrong, the drunkard quickly waved his hand and said, "You, you guys, don't mess around. I, I'm very powerful."
At that moment, the conflict had already aroused the curiosity of some people on the street. When they saw the drunkard's actions, it instantly caused a roar of laughter.
The attendant sneered and swung his fist without saying a word.
The drunkard had offended the Second Young Master. Although it was unintentional, at least the Second Young Master was very angry. Once the Second Young Master was angry, the two attendants who were responsible for the Second Young Master's safety would be in trouble.
Therefore, he did not hold back with his fist. As long as the drunkard did not die, it was only right to beat him up.
He swung his fist in a circle and hit the drunkard's lower abdomen. This was because the attendant was not willing to kill. Otherwise, it would have been dangerous if he had directly hit a vital point.
The drunkard was instantly sent flying. At the same time, he spat out a mouthful of blood and dyed the ground red.
The attendant was surprised and delighted. The drunkard was able to knock the Second Young Master down, so he was clearly a strong fellow. His casual punch could actually send the drunkard flying and spit out blood. When did his punch become so powerful?
However, something even more unexpected happened.
As soon as the drunkard's body fell to the ground, he immediately got up as if nothing had happened. He even bared his fangs and brandished his claws as he shouted, "How dare you hit me? I'll fight it out with you."
Then, he lowered his head and charged over like a bull. A boor actually emitted a terrifying aura at that moment.
Just as the attendant was startled, he was already firmly held by the boorish man and flew backwards.
Cries of pain could be heard incessantly. By the time the attendant came to his senses, he realized that he had unknowingly fallen on his back, and the people under him were his Second Young Master and another attendant.
For some reason, the three of them were rolled into a gourd without any resistance.
When the three of them got up amidst the crowd's laughter, the drunkard was already nowhere to be seen.
Although Fan Haoyue was arrogant, he was not stupid. It was already very strange that a drunkard who came out of nowhere could knock him down. Furthermore, his attendant was easily pushed down by the drunkard and even implicated himself and the other attendant. This was very abnormal.
The moment the three of them got up from the ground and could no longer see the drunkard, they immediately understood that the drunkard was definitely not that simple.
One of the attendants' expression suddenly changed. He said, "Oh no, my bag."
Fan Haoyue and the other attendant hurriedly looked over, and sure enough, the black stone in his bag had disappeared without a trace.
The three of them looked at each other. Fan Haoyue shouted sternly, "Quickly chase after him."
Then, they knew in their hearts that the chances of catching up to the drunkard were very slim.

When he slowly walked out of a street, He Yiming's face had already returned to its original appearance. Even his figure was completely normal. As for the clothes on his body, he had already stuffed them into a corner.
His figure moved slightly and he had already arrived at a shop of the Yuan family. The shop assistant naturally recognized He Yiming and hurriedly came out to greet him.
He Yiming asked him to prepare a room for him to rest. He also asked them to send someone to the antique street to inform his eldest brother, He Yitian, that he would be waiting here.
The servants of the Yuan family naturally did not dare to be negligent. They hurriedly took care of all this and vacated a room.
After He Yiming entered the room, the first thing he did was to open the bag.
In the bag, there was a box made of gold and iron. Outside the box, there was an exquisite chain.
He Yiming snorted coldly. He pulled the chain with his hand and the chain suddenly broke apart with a gentle pull. For a Primordial expert like him, this kind of chain would not be a problem for him even if there was no key.
After opening the iron box, a round object wrapped in cotton cloth was suddenly revealed.
With a slight frown, he tore off the outer cotton cloth, immediately revealing a dark and swarthy black stone that seemed to have no color at all.
When He Yiming saw the black stone, his face suddenly revealed a look of disbelief.
This time, he met Fan Haoyue by accident. He Yiming did not intend to covet this treasure. He only thought of Fan Haoyue's hateful face when they first met, so he wanted to teach Fan Haoyue a lesson and let him know that good and evil would eventually be repaid.
However, no matter how He Yiming thought about it, he did not expect this treasure to be in the box.
His movements suddenly slowed down and became gentle.
Before he knew what was inside, he did not have much expectation in his heart. This was because for a Primordial expert, ordinary things could not attract his attention.
However, when he saw what was inside, he immediately became cautious. He also understood why this thing was treated as the most precious thing to hold the coffin.
This was because the black and inconspicuous item was the steel magnet that He Yiming obtained from Ting Shiguang.
This thing wasn't very useful to ordinary people, and due to its rarity, it wasn't something that ordinary people could recognize.
On the other hand, to Primordial Experts, especially those who did not have a handy weapon, this item was priceless and would not be exchanged for even a thousand taels of gold.
Ou Yangming weighed the item in his hand and conveniently measured its size. He instantly beamed. This item was unexpectedly large, and it was almost twice as large as the one that was given to him by Ting Shiguang.
He Yiming took a deep breath and kept the item in the parcel, then he put it back into the iron box. He was already excited.
This time, it was an unexpected surprise that he had obtained such a large piece of fine steel magnet.
He really did not know what kind of person the deceased was to be buried with such a precious item. Nevertheless, since he could recognize the item's preciousness, he could not be a nobody.
With such a large steel magnet, he could definitely refine the remaining two sections of the steel staff from the glaive again.
The biggest problem now was that he didn't have the corresponding Wen Li Stone Furnace in his hands.
Ou Yangming stayed in the room alone for an unknown period of time before hurried footsteps were heard from outside. He Yiming's elder brother, He Yitian's figure instantly appeared in his mind.
After a brief moment, the door was pushed open. Sure enough, He Yitian and Yuan Lixuan had returned.
The two of them chatted and laughed. He Yiming listened for a moment, and his expression became quite interesting. It turned out that from their conversation, He Yiming had already heard that the matter of him teasing Fan Haoyue had been discovered by others, and the news had spread. And what made He Yiming even more amused was that Fan Haoyue was from the Yuan family's enemy, the Fan family. No wonder Yuan Lixuan had a gloating expression when he mentioned this matter.
He Yiming came out to greet them. After the two sides met, they immediately left the city and returned to the Yuan family village.
As for the small parcel that He Yiming had on him, no one took it to heart. Because no one would associate the drunk man in his forties with He Yiming, who was only 16 years old.

"Idiot, how do you do things? Who told you to go to the antique shop? "
A furious voice came from the Fan family. This voice was full of energy and was full of oppressive majesty. It was obvious that it came from the mouth of a person who was used to giving orders.
In Jinlin Kingdom, the Fan family was just a small family that had just risen. However, in this family, because there was a tenth level internal strength master in charge, it attracted the attention of countless people.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Fan family, Fan Haoyue was kneeling on the ground with a dejected look on his face. Beside him, the two attendants looked even more dismal. In front of their furious master, they did not dare to say anything.
Fan Haoyue looked up and immediately lowered his head, saying, "Father, big brother was not at home at that time. I just wanted to help big brother."
"Help?" Fan Shuhe sneered and said, "I'm afraid that you wanted to be in the limelight."
Fan Haoyue lowered his head, but his fists on his knees involuntarily clenched.
Fan Shuhe took in his movements, and the thought of continuing to scold him faded away. However, in his heart, he was sad that compared to the eldest son, this second son was indeed not successful and was good at spoiling things.
"Father, don't be angry."
A gentle voice came, and Fan Haori quickly walked in and said, "I've already heard about this matter. Second brother was kind, but the person he met was too cunning, so it was lost."
Fan Haoyue raised his head for the second time, and his gaze swept over his father and brother. When he lowered his head, there was no trace of gratitude in his eyes, but instead it was full of resentment. However, he also knew that at this moment, he must not show these feelings, or he did not know what kind of punishment would be waiting for him.
"Sigh." Fan Shuhe shook his head. He already felt that he did not have the strength to continue to discipline this second son of his. "Tell me, what exactly was lost."
Before Fan Haoyue could speak, he heard his brother say, "I sent someone to the antique shop to ask around. This was found by the gold-groping hamster in the tomb of an important person of the previous dynasty. It is said that it was a treasure that was used to hold the coffin. However, from its appearance, it looks like a piece of black stone. "
Fan Shuhe frowned slightly. Such an item, not to mention not having seen it with their own eyes, might not be recognized even if they saw it with their own eyes.
"Forget it. Since no one knows what it is, there's no need to mention it." Fan Shuhe's voice suddenly turned stern. "However, the person who dared to steal from our Fan family must be found. I want to burn his bones and scatter his ashes."
Fan Haori laughed bitterly. "Father, I heard about today's matter. That person's skills are probably very impressive, and he looks very unfamiliar. If we want to find him, I'm afraid …"
Fan Shuhe snorted angrily again. He knew what his eldest son meant. They could only grit their teeth and accept such a case without any clues. After all, in the vast sea of people, with the Fan family's current strength, it was impossible to find such a person in the entire county city.
After reprimanding Fan Haoyue a few more times, Fan Shuhe finally got up and left.
The two attendants beside Fan Haoyue secretly rejoiced. It was a great fortune to be able to escape punishment this time.
Fan Haori waved his hand, and the two attendants immediately turned and left as if they had been pardoned. They did not dare to look at Fan Haoyue, who had a malicious expression on his face.
The matter between the two brothers was not something they could interfere with.
Fan Haori sighed softly. "Second Brother, I've sent someone to investigate. This time, the Yuan family invited an expert of the tenth level of internal energy. With this person backing the Yuan family, Yuan Zeyu's attitude changed. It seems like he wants to fight to the death with us. "
Fan Haoyue snorted coldly. "Big Brother, you should discuss this matter with Father. Why are you telling this to an ignorant and incompetent person like me?"
Fan Haori frowned. "Second Brother, do you remember the last time you coveted someone else's mount and were taught a lesson?"
Fan Haoyue suddenly raised his head and said angrily, "Why are you bringing this up? Do you still want to humiliate me?"
Fan Haori helplessly waved his hand. "Second Brother, according to Fan Qi, this time, among the people invited by the Yuan family, there was that red horse. Even the young rider on the horse came."
Fan Haoyue's face suddenly showed a trace of murderous intent.
"Second Brother." Fan Haori's face finally darkened. "The Yuan family asked for help from others, but there was no response. However, people from the faraway Tian Luo Kingdom came here. Don't you think it's strange? "
Fan Haoyue's eyes suddenly showed a fierce light. "Big Brother, do you think that I invited these people?"
"It might not be related to you. However, this is a lesson. In the future, don't be so reckless." Fan Haori said sincerely.
Fan Haoyue let out a long laugh, but there was no hint of respect in his laughter. "Big brother, I will remember your teachings. As for that Red Horse Rider, if he causes you any trouble, I will definitely help you settle it."
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and strode away. Only Fan Haori was left staring at his back. He frowned and did not say anything.
