Gong Shaoxi shook his head and apologized to Xiao Chen helplessly before following behind Xuan Zhaoxin.
Xuan Zhaoxin strode forward until he reached a corner before he was stopped by Gong Shaoxi who caught up from behind.
"Vice Sect Leader Xuan, what are you doing?" Gong Shaoxi's expression was a little displeased as he complained, "What is it that you can't say in front of my master? Why are you acting so sneakily?"
"Shaoxi, have you been tricked by that kid?" Xuan Zhaoxin's face darkened as he asked in a low voice, "He's so young, how could he be an expert cultivator? Could it be that the Tranquil Forest Sect purposely set up a ruse to trick you into taking the bait? "
In Xuan Zhaoxin's mind, an immortal cultivator who was able to reach the Perfected Nascent Soul stage must have at least gone through dozens or hundreds of years of arduous cultivation before he could succeed. Based on his age, he should be a loyal elder. He didn't expect to see a young kid today!
"Shhh …" Gong Shaoxi was shocked and quickly looked to his left and right. When he saw that there was no one nearby, he finally relaxed and made a shushing gesture to Xuan Zhaoxin. He said in an extremely displeased tone, "Vice Sect Leader Xuan, how can you speak like this? Aren't you being too disrespectful to my master? What do you mean by that kid and that kid? "
"Just because of that little …" Xuan Zhaoxin wanted to scold Xiao Chen when he saw Gong Shaoxi still speaking like this. However, he was interrupted by Gong Shaoxi halfway through his sentence.
"Vice Sect Leader Xuan, you'd better watch your mouth. My master, Exalted Immortal Xiao, is a true expert. What do you mean by slandering him like this?" Gong Shaoxi's expression was a little gloomy and he seemed to be on the verge of exploding.
Xuan Zhaoxin originally wanted to say something disrespectful but when he saw Gong Shaoxi's attitude, he could only swallow the profanity that he had prepared and changed his words, "Anyway, no matter how I look at it, your master is only a young man around twenty years old! How is it possible that he could cultivate to such a high level in just twenty years? Unless he has cultivated some kind of technique to preserve his youthful looks, a cultivator at the Peak of the Nascent Soul Stage would never look so young! "
"I don't know about that. Moreover, as his disciple, I won't ask about these useless things. After all, not only have I personally experienced Exalted Deity Xiao's strength, I have also personally witnessed him crippling that old thing with the surname Ying from the Tranquil Forest Sect. If you really don't believe me, then there's nothing I can do!" Gong Shaoxi spread out his hands and said casually.
To Gong Shaoxi, he did not care at all whether or not Exalted Immortal Xiao had learned the Eternal Youth Technique. So what if he was really only 20 years old? Strength was the absolute way of the king!
"This …" Xuan Zhaoxin was speechless when she heard Gong Shaoxi's insistence. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.
Although Xuan Zhaoxin believed that Gong Shaoxi wouldn't lie to him and didn't doubt what he said, Xiao Chen looked too young. It felt weird to associate him with the peak of Nascent Soul stage.
"Alright, you don't have to say this and that." Gong Shaoxi waved his hand and didn't let Xuan Zhaoxin continue speaking. He said calmly, "Since Exalted Deity Master has already rejected you, don't go in and make him angry. Why don't you first report the situation to Sect Leader Duan and then let him make a decision!"
"Sigh, alright! This is the only thing we can do now! " Xuan Zhaoxin sighed helplessly and looked left and right. After thinking for a while, he said, "Then I will first find a suitable place to contact the Sect Leader. When I have confirmed the news, I will use the Directed Audio Amulet to inform you."
Xuan Zhaoxin felt that the situation was a little complicated. If he found a place to contact Duan Suqing in the Qin Clan, it was very likely that he wouldn't be able to explain things clearly. If he returned to the Liuxian Prefecture, it would be a waste of time and effort. It was better to find an inn and use the Directed Audio Amulet to report in detail to the Sect Leader.
"Then you go. I will go back to find my Exalted Deity Master!" Gong Shaoxi could also understand Xuan Zhaoxin's thoughts and didn't try to keep him.
Xuan Zhaoxin gave a few simple instructions to Gong Shaoxi and looked in the direction of the guest hall. Then, he turned around and hurriedly left the Qin Clan.
Seeing Gong Shaoxi return to the guest hall alone, Qin Shengling, who was originally a little uneasy, was instantly stunned. He looked behind him for a long time but didn't see Xuan Zhaoxin's figure. He could only carefully ask, "Elder Gong, why didn't that Deputy Sect Leader Xuan return with you? Did our Qin Clan treat him poorly in any way and made him angry? "
"No, no, he suddenly had an urgent matter to attend to, so he went out for a while. Don't worry, Old Clan Leader Qin. He is usually very strange and doesn't act properly. He has nothing to do with your Qin Clan, so please don't take it to heart." Gong Shaoxi waved his hand carelessly and said casually.
With regards to Xuan Zhaoxin's departure, Gong Shaoxi didn't seem to mind at all. Instead, he looked for Xiao Chen in high spirits and chatted about the topic of cultivation, hoping that he would be able to make some gains after breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm.
Qin Shengling was confused as he listened. He thought to himself, What kind of show is the Burning Sky Faction playing? Could it be that they failed to invite Exalted Deity Xiao, and Xuan Zhaoxin left angrily out of humiliation and anger? Isn't that a little too arrogant?
A faint smile hung on the corner of Xiao Chen's mouth. Although Xuan Zhaoxin and Gong Shaoxi deliberately walked very far away and even lowered their voices, under his powerful divine sense, he could still hear everything clearly.
After listening to the argument, Xiao Chen felt that Xuan Zhaoxin was really a person with a bad character. Wasn't he just a little young? What problem could there be? He actually pulled out the trick of injuring himself to gain the confidence of others! What kind of youthful technique is this? Could it be that I went to South Korea for an injection to make adjustments to my appearance?
If I really wanted to harm the Burning Sky Faction, there was no need for me to create so many problems. Wouldn't it be much easier to just go and find trouble with them?
However, Xiao Chen only thought about these things in his heart. He had seen this kind of situation many times, so he naturally didn't find it strange. He still chatted with Gong Shaoxi from time to time.
Xuan Zhaoxin hurriedly left the Qin family and casually found an inn in Yanlin Town to stay. Without any delay, he directly prepared a basin of water and soaked it in a sound-transmitting talisman, waiting for Duan Suqing's reply.
"Is it Zhaoxin? How did it go? " Not long after, Duan Suqing's voice came out from the basin of water along with a few bubbles.
"Sect Master, I've already arrived at the Qin Clan and met Gong Shaoxi and the Exalted Deity Master he mentioned, but the matter seems a little strange …" Xuan Zhaoxin hesitated for a moment, not knowing how to describe the matter. Should he say that the other party had a youthful technique, or should he directly say that he thought that the other party was here to trick the Burning Sky Faction?
