In the other hall, when the old man saw that Xiao Yan had such a big reaction, he was not surprised but happy. Indeed, this was what he wanted to see the most at this moment.
From his point of view, the greater the commotion in Xiao Yan's heart, the better it would be. This would only improve their relationship. The greater the favor Xiao Yan in front of him owed him, the more he would be able to help him in the future. He would also have an even greater reason to get this rank three alchemist to act on his behalf.
For him, this was really killing many birds with one stone. He just didn't expect that the black-robed young man in front of him didn't know anything about this Desolate Ancient Ruins. However, this news was only spread in recent months. Perhaps during this period, Xiao Yan was in an inconspicuous city, bitterly searching for the medicinal herbs he needed.
Of course, all of this was not important to the old man. What he really cared about was whether Xiao Yan in front of him could bring him great benefits.
"Are you sure? Are you sure that thing is really the Condensing Soul Fruit?"
Suddenly, Xiao Yan, who stood up in front of him, stared at the old man. There was a different meaning in his tone. It was both excited and suspicious.
Noticing Xiao Yan's dark-black, deep eyes shooting over, the old man's body involuntarily shuddered. It must be said that the black-robed, young man in front of him may appear ordinary, but the invisible pressure that he gave him was not the slightest bit inferior to those in charge within the clan.
Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but secretly feel scared. He could only think that maybe he was thinking too much.
After recovering, the old man's face quickly surged with a respectful smile. He smiled respectfully at Xiao Yan and said:
"Sir, you can rest assured about this. I am willing to use my life to guarantee that my news is definitely not wrong!"
When the old man's words fell, he did not forget to secretly add a sentence in his heart.
"This news has now spread crazily in the few big cities around. I'm afraid that you are the only one who doesn't know."
Of course, Xiao Yan naturally didn't know about these words. However, even if he knew, he believed that he wouldn't take it to heart. As long as a ruin appeared, it would be strange if it didn't attract attention from all directions. Therefore, Xiao Yan didn't have too many doubts about the words of the old man in front of him. After thinking for a while, he nodded his head noncommittally.
… …
And when Xiao Yan obtained part of the news about the ruins, at the same time, on the other side, outside the most magnificent courtyard in Cold Stream City, the white-robed old man who had left the Four Directions Pavilion earlier had already appeared here.
Standing outside the manor, the old man slowly lifted his gaze. His pair of densely white eyes looked at the signboard in front of him. The two large words were flickering with a bright golden light. The expression in the old man's eyes flickered slightly. The corners of his mouth unconsciously parted into a cold smile.
Sun Mansion.
When the guard in front of the door saw the person who came, a respectful smile quickly appeared on his originally indifferent face. He hurriedly bowed respectfully to the old man, and at the same time, he also respectfully called out, "Sir, Sir.
"Greetings, old Bai!"
Hearing this, the cold smile on the old man's face slowly disappeared. In the end, it became indifference. After which, he softly snorted and said in a deep voice,
"Hmph, I have an important matter to discuss with your family head. Quickly bring me to see him!"
Hearing the words from the old man's mouth, the two guards did not dare to slight him in the slightest. They hurriedly bowed respectfully to the old man again. After which, they made an inviting gesture to the old man. At the same time, they hurriedly opened the tightly shut door behind them.
"Hmph."
After a cold snort, the old man no longer acted courteously. Without waiting for the guard to lead the way, his body flashed and he instantly entered the courtyard.
Seeing the white-robed old man who had disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye, the expressions on the faces of the two guards in front of the door instantly became overwhelmed with shock.
"What frightening speed. As expected of a nine star Half Martial Emperor expert!"
"That's right. However, if he is compared to the family head, hee hee, he is far inferior."
"Tch, the family head is a dignified elite Dou Di. Regardless of how fast Bai Ye is, how can a nine star Half Martial Emperor be faster than a Dou Di?"
"However, if we were to compare the both of us, tsk tsk, even though we are all Half Martial Emperors, we pale in comparison to Bai Ye!"
The two armored guards in front of the courtyard mocked each other. At the same time, the white-robed old man who was called Bai Ye had also used a swift speed to fly past a cluster of buildings within a short moment. After which, he arrived in front of the most majestic building within the courtyard.
The main hall of the Sun Manor.
"Ha ha ha ha, brother Bai Ye, why have you returned after leaving just now? Don't tell me that you have forgotten to inform me of something? You can be rest assured that with me around, as long as that brat called Xiao Yan dares to appear in my Cold Stream City, I will immediately dispatch people to capture him! "
High in the sky, before Bai Ye's body could land, a deep voice that appeared to be quite imposing was emitted from the main hall below like a rumbling thunder.
The person who spoke appeared to have sensed Bai Ye's arrival. It was as though he had been waiting here for a long time.
Bai Ye's heart involuntarily became awed when he heard that thunder-like voice. An elite Dou Di was really this frightening. Just the aura and pressure contained within those words caused Bai Ye's heart to tremble. It was difficult to imagine just what kind of apocalyptic scene it would be if they were to fight.
However, Bai Ye's emotions swiftly recovered their calmness soon after. At the same time, his body, which was standing in the sky, flashed slightly and swiftly landed in front of the main hall below.
Bai Ye's gaze shifted downwards. In front of the main hall, there was a middle-aged man with a strong body wearing embroidered clothes. He was smiling as he waited with his hands behind his back.
"Brother Bai Ye left in the morning and hurried back to my Sun Manor in the afternoon. Looks like brother Bai Ye has deep feelings for my Sun clan!"
The middle-aged large man looked at Bai Ye with a smile that was not a smile. The expression in his eyes appeared quite sharp.
Bai Ye involuntarily frowned when he saw this. He did not expect that all of his movements were being monitored by this person in front of him.
"Clan head Sun is also concerned about me. However, the reason I have returned this time around is not for any other reason. Instead, there is something that I feel that there is a need to inform you of."
Bai Ye frowned deeply as he stared at the middle-aged man in front of him. It was a long while later before he slowly spoke in a solemn tone.
The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes when he heard this. His gaze stared intently at Bai Ye in front of him. It was as though he was examining the credibility of the latter's words.
After a couple of breaths, the middle-aged man finally laughed softly and opened his mouth to speak.
"Ha ha, brother Bai Ye, please don't misunderstand. You should also know that as a Dou Di, I am able to sense anyone whose aura I know as long as they are in my Cold Stream City. Therefore, this is really an unintentional act … but brother Bai Ye, you said that you have sensed something this time around. May I know …"
Although the middle-aged man appeared to have a straightforward character, his words were tactful and detailed, causing one to not dare to be careless.
"The reason I have come this time around is to tell clan head Sun that I have seen a person in your four-way pavilion."
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. He had seen many people. Who was this person?
"Brother Bai Ye, please speak frankly. I do not like to waste my brain."
"Ke ke, since clan head Sun is not willing to think too much, I will speak frankly. This person is the person you mentioned earlier …"
Suddenly, the expression of the middle-aged man solidified. He involuntarily let out a soft exclamation with Bai Ye in front of him.
"Xiao Yan!"
