As the overlord of this area, Yao Kun's mansion, the Venerable Mansion was not located in the most flourishing area as expected. Instead, it was located in an extremely remote area.
Under the lead of the guard, Lin Xiu arrived at the entrance of the residence. From afar, the residence looked ordinary and did not highlight the domineering aura of a powerhouse in the Venerable Realm.
But the more ordinary it was, the more solemn Lin Xiu became. Only a nouveau riche would want to show off his strength all the time. It seemed that Yao Kun had been hiding his strength and biding his time all these years. His strength must have improved a lot.
Under the lead of the guard, Lin Xiu quickly arrived at the main hall. When he saw Yao Kun resting with his eyes closed, his heart tightened. This was the first time he saw a powerhouse in the Venerable Realm in the Ancient Desolate World.
Yao Kun gave off an extremely oppressive feeling just by sitting there, as if he was facing a sleeping lion that could wake up at any time.
Lin Xiu came here this time to see if he could get any benefits from Yao Kun in the shortest time possible, so as to greatly shorten the time he spent in the Ancient Desolate World. After all, his son was still in a deep sleep in the Immortal Martial Continent.
After the guard brought Lin Xiu here, he tactfully retreated, leaving Lin Xiu and Yao Kun in the hall.
At this time, Yao Kun seemed to have finally noticed Lin Xiu's arrival. He raised his eyelids and said to Lin Xiu in an extremely dignified voice, "You must be Lin Xiu who has been showing off in the city recently. Seeing you today, you are indeed a young hero."
Although Lin Xiu's real age was close to 40 years old, in front of a powerful existence like Yao Kun, hundreds and thousands of years were just like a snap of a finger, so Lin Xiu was still considered young in front of him.
Facing the other party's praise, Lin Xiu nodded his head with a smile on his face. He stood there in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, waiting for Yao Kun to continue.
"I believe everyone has already told you that I hope you can join the Venerable Mansion. Don't worry, cultivation resources aren't a problem. As long as you work for me well, I'll be able to satisfy everything you want in the future." Yao Kun walked down from his seat and stood in front of Lin Xiu, then stared at the young man who had risen to fame.
Lin Xiu was not in a hurry to agree. After all, although Yao Kun looked like a monk, the head of the Zhang family had already warned him that this person would seek revenge for the smallest grievance and was not a kind person.
But if he directly refused, it would definitely cause Yao Kun to be unhappy. Although Lin Xiu was not afraid of him, he had been getting along very well with the experts of Cloud Sea City these days and did not want to cause any trouble for them.
"Sir Venerable, I'm just a warrior in the middle stage of Dao Enlightenment Realm. Compared to you, I'm like a firefly trying to compete with the bright moon. I'm really overestimating myself. I'm indeed a little interested in joining the Venerable Mansion, but for now, it's best to solve the problem of the competition first." Lin Xiu said slightly, leaving a lot of room for negotiation.
Yao Kun was not surprised by this. After all, the other party was just a young man who had just heard of his reputation and did not know how powerful the Venerable Mansion was.
"Don't worry, I don't mean to force you. After you've been under my command for a long time, you'll know. I, Yao Kun, have always been generous and kind to my subordinates. There will be benefits for you." Yao Kun's face was full of smiles, then with a wave of his hand, a layer of water curtain suddenly appeared and surrounded the entire room. He then explained to Lin Xiu, "A few years ago, I was lucky to obtain a water attribute skill. This skill points directly to the Great Dao. In my opinion, although you're extremely outstanding in terms of power control, your skill is indeed lacking. This time, take it as a greeting gift."
The water curtain that filled the sky suddenly compressed rapidly and finally turned into words that fell into Yao Kun's hand.
Lin Xiu was naturally eager to obtain this kind of skill that could show the Great Dao, but he knew that there was no free lunch in this world, so he was not in a hurry to take it.
These days, Lin Xiu could be said to have achieved good results in the Ancient Desolate World. However, to him, the Ancient Desolate World was only the tip of the iceberg. He was currently not qualified to explore the majority of the mysteries.
And now from Yao Kun's point of view, it might be a breakthrough. If he wanted his strength to break through to the Dao Enlightenment Realm as soon as possible, not only did he need to accumulate, but more importantly, he needed to study various skills. Although the Star Art was powerful, it was not suitable to be exposed in the eyes of others.
Lin Xiu thought quickly in his mind. In order not to arouse Yao Kun's suspicion, he finally took the skill, then said to Yao Kun respectfully, "The Venerable is indeed generous and benevolent. This skill can be said to be a timely help to me. In the future, if there's anything you need, Lin Xiu will do it."
Obviously, Yao Kun was extremely satisfied with Lin Xiu's performance. He patted the young man's shoulder, then turned around and returned to his seat. Lin Xiu knew that it was time for him to leave.
When he returned to his own small courtyard in the Sea of Clouds City, Yun Tian and the others surrounded Lin Xiu and asked him about the meeting with Yao Kun.
In this regard, Lin Xiu of course did not hide anything. There was nothing shameful about the conversation between them, so he roughly explained it, which made everyone envious.
"This time, Brother Lin has obtained the Venerable's appreciation. It is only a matter of time before you soar. If you can become a powerhouse comparable to the Venerable Realm in the future, you must remember to help us." The head of the Wang family had always been extremely forthright. He did not hide some of the secrets in his heart and directly told Lin Xiu.
Only the head of the Zhang family fell into deep thought. His intuition told him that this matter was not as simple as he thought.
It was just that Lin Xiu was now involved in the matter regarding Yao Kun. It would not be easy for him to get away in the future.
Since Yao Kun did not show any bad intentions and showed kindness to Lin Xiu, it meant that Lin Xiu was not in any danger for the time being. This also made the head of the Zhang family feel a little relieved.
