Hao Ren walked through the corridor with Ye Jian following him quickly. Earlier when the young man had come out of the study, he heard a notification in his mind, *Ding: Host, your wife's moon essence is being stolen, bring it back safely and gift it to her.* He was a bit surprised when Ye Jian told him about the issue. Ye Si and a few others also got the news through various channels and they gathered in the Silent Dew Pavilion. This was Hao Ren's personal leisure spot inside the palace. The Ye Generals had their own residing rooms inside the palace, because they were the experts directly under the throne's command. Everyone was silently talking while using their spiritual senses, and asked, "Can someone tell me what the fuck is going on with this theft of Moon Essence?" Everyone looked at each other, and Ye Jian said, "Young Master, we only received a distress signal from Ye Ding who went to the Soul Lamp Village." Hao Ren frowned and with his hands crossed behind his back he asked, "Ye Ding has reached the Soul Formation realm, he is skilled as well, if he is in distress than it means the problem is something that he cannot handle. Who went over to support him?" Ye Si replied, "The closest to the location at that time was Master Quan. We cannot contact him now." Hao Ren waved his hand and a portal appeared. He said, "Si, Jian, Peng, follow me." Ye Si was the first to react and she left behind the word, "Increase the security of the entire city to the highest level." Yan, the array master of the palace was there and nodded in affirmation. Four people vanished from the place. ... Hao Ren stepped out of the void tunnel a few kilometers away from the Soul Lamp Village. Ye Si noticed something and frowned as she mumbled, "Space Restriction." Ye Peng and Ye Jian were taken aback. The latter asked, "Who could have such a skill?" Ye Peng and Ye Si looked at Hao Ren whose face was as calm as the water in the lake. His eyes, however, were narrating a different story altogether. Ye Si took out a talisman from her space ring and channeled her spiritual energy in it before flicking it towards the locked space. The Talisman glowed with a bright light before it vanished. Ye Si was surprised, and Hao Ren said, "Someone above Dao Integration, how interesting." He moved closer to the barrier, and found an invisible wall before him. He clenched his fist and said, "Get back." Ye Si and the rest quickly moved back, this place was locked, and Hao Ren did not have any realistic hope of his people being alive. He decided not to hold back. At this moment, his punch could level a city if he intended to. The young man shot a punch with full force and a loud back was heard. It was not the fist making contact with the wall. The person sensed some relief and said, "I am Qamar Ibrahim. I was the progenitor of the Qamar Household in the Falling Dew City." Hao Ren raised his brow and asked, "Falling Dew City? That was fifty thousand years ago. What made you turn into the abomination that you are now?" Qamar replied, "The enemy killed my family before my eyes, and I wanted revenge. With no other option, I took the path of demonic cultivation. After the revenge I wished to kill myself, but the demonic nature that grown dominant. Since I could not fight it, I decided to seal myself. Even when I spend so much time in the slumber my body was absorbing the energy of the nature, and once the strength increase to surpass the level of the seal, I woke up. Please kill me, I do not wish to continue down this path of destruction." Hao Ren sighed and said, "The reason you are saying that is because you know you cannot run from me. However, the damage that you have done here cannot be covered up with just the desire to die. That is the easy way out. You absorbed the Moon Essence that belonged to my wife, and also injured my people. First I will take back the moon essence from your body, then I will purify you and for the next ten years, you will guard this place. Then you are free to die." The man looked at Hao Ren in a daze and asked, "Can you tell me why are you being merciful to me?" Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "You think too much, I am a businessman and this is my way to cover up the losses." He waved his hands and controlled the moon essence that the man had yet to completely absorb. It all flowed out of its pores. The man wailed but Hao Ren did not show any mercy. How dare this guy just come out of the grave and dare to steal what belonged to Han Lingshi. Not only that but even the people were injured. Hao Ren hated people who did such things and tried to find the easy way out. The young man extracted the moon essence and with a frown, he refined it pure with his phoenix flames. Moon essence condensed in different places but it was never man made, this was why even when the four nations attacked the Moon Spirit Kingdom, they did not make any strong moves to destroy the surroundings. Natural arrays were one of the unsolved mysteries. After purifying the moon essence of all the demonic impurities. Hao Ren sent a wisp of the phoenix flames inside the body of the Demon, and began to purify him. In the meantime he said, "Peng." Ye Peng flashed over with his head bowed, and Hao Ren said, "Clean up, send them to recover, compensate them and get them to train harder. Tell Ding to go into seclusion and remove the flaws in his foundation before he climbs the realm." Ye Peng nodded and vanished from his place, quickly rescuing the people. Hao Ren said, "Si, Jian." The two appeared beside him and he said, "Three hundred meters in the ocean deck, there is a hole leading to the buried ruins, go and find them. If you sense any baleful energy do not act, retreat, report and regroup. Understood." The two nodded and Hao Ren looked at Ye Si before he said, "Better not repeat the stunt from last time. I will not give you a second chance." Ye Si nodded and left with Ye Jian. She was a naughty child, and Hao Ren accomodated her a lot, but if she dared to play with her life, Hao Ren would never let her stay by his side. He did not like careless people. *Ding: Task complete.*
