The sudden arrival of Fang Qian also caused Xiao Yan to be slightly taken aback. However, immediately after, when Xiao Yan heard the words that came from the latter's mouth, the expression on his face instantly froze.
In the blink of an eye, what emerged was endless joy and excitement.
Xiao Yan originally thought that he would have to stay here for ten days to half a month. However, he did not expect that in just a few days, there was already news of the Fire Plume Flower's whereabouts. This was truly a pleasant surprise.
Fang Qian's figure landed in the small courtyard. First, he smiled and cupped his hands together towards Jin Yao, whose face had darkened when she saw him. Then, he walked towards Xiao Yan, cupped his hands together and smiled.
"Haha, mister, I have already sent someone to help you find the whereabouts of the Fire Plume Flower that you are looking for."
Although he had clearly heard Fang Qian's words earlier, Xiao Yan's heart had become even more excited and excited after hearing Fang Qian's confirmation once again.
"Thank you for your trouble, Manager Fang!"
Xiao Yan cupped his hands together towards Fang Qian in front of him and said with a joyful face.
"Haha, mister is too polite. It was just a small matter, there is no need to thank me. Moreover, if we can really help mister, it is our fortune. Mister need not thank me."
Fang Qian respectfully cupped his hands to Xiao Yan and spoke with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan also smiled. However, he did not notice that Jin Yao's pretty face was currently gloomy. Originally, she thought that after settling the matters within the Thousand Medicine Shop, she should be able to relax and accompany Xiao Yan for a few days. However, from the looks of it, after she had just settled the matters within the Thousand Medicine Shop, Xiao Yan was about to leave in the blink of an eye.
While she felt regret in her heart, Jin Yao was also happy for Xiao Yan. From the conversation a few days ago, Jin Yao knew that Xiao Yan valued the Fire Plume Flower. Now that there was news about it, she was naturally overjoyed. Unfortunately, Xiao Yan's departure left Jin Yao with sadness and disappointment.
"Sigh …"
Jin Yao helplessly sighed in her heart. She stood by the side and was silent. Xiao Yan, on the other hand, smiled and chatted with Fang Qian for a while before looking at the latter.
"Haha, sister Jin Yao, thank you for taking me in these few days. With the whereabouts of the Fire Plume Flower, it's time for me to leave."
Seeing the disappointment on Jin Yao's pretty face, Xiao Yan's eyes could not help but faintly. However, in the end, he still could not help but sigh in his heart.
"You're leaving?"
Jin Yao lifted her pretty eyes. Her gaze was distant as she looked at Xiao Yan in front of her. Her tone carried a little loneliness as she asked.
Fang Qian by the side involuntarily frowned when he saw this. He was naturally able to tell that Xiao Yan and Jin Yao's relationship was not ordinary. Although the two of them had only met twice and could be said to have not known each other for long, Xiao Yan's various actions caused Jin Yao, a two star Dou Di, to be endlessly impressed in her heart. This was especially the case when Xiao Yan had intervened for her. Using the strength of a half Di to contend with a Dou Di, this kind of shocking action was the best way to capture a woman's heart. Although this appeared a little old-fashioned, it was undoubtedly the most effective method. Wasn't this point proven by Jin Yao?
"I will first go to the auction house to understand the specific situation of the Fire Plume Flower. I should be leaving today."
After pausing for a moment, Xiao Yan finally spoke slowly.
"Ke ke, mister, why don't you chat with District Owner Jin first. There are still some matters that have not been settled in the auction house. The old me will return first."
The expression in Fang Qian's old eyes flickered slightly. His gaze swept back and forth between the two people in front of him. A moment later, he finally spoke with a smile. Once he finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Wait!"
Jin Yao, who was facing Xiao Yan, suddenly turned around and hurriedly called out to Fang Qian. At the same time, Xiao Yan also slowly turned around. An awkward expression flashed across his face. At the same time, it was also mixed with a helplessness.
"District Owner Jin, is there anything else?"
Fang Qian raised his eyebrows slightly. His old eyes looked at Jin Yao before sweeping over Xiao Yan beside her. His voice was uncertain as he asked.
"Xiao Yan, you should go with him. I remember that there are still some matters that have not been settled in the Thousand Medicinal House. I'm afraid that I cannot accompany you any longer."
Jin Yao turned her head and looked at Xiao Yan as she forced a smile.
The matters in the Thousand Medicinal House had all been settled. Hence, Jin Yao had returned to this small courtyard. Xiao Yan was well aware of this point. The reason why Jin Yao said this was just to find an excuse. She did not know what she should say to Xiao Yan after Fang Qian left and how she should say it.
In order to avoid any awkwardness between the two of them, Jin Yao chose to leave on her own. This would lessen the apologetic feeling in Xiao Yan's heart. At the same time, it would allow Xiao Yan to focus more on his own matters.
After all, the Fire Plume Flower was just too important to Xiao Yan.
Without waiting for Xiao Yan to speak, Jin Yao had already stepped into the air. Her beautiful face carried a forced smile as her delicate body moved and swiftly left the place. In the blink of an eye, only Xiao Yan and Fang Qian were left in this small courtyard.
"Sigh …"
He helplessly sighed as he recalled that he had clearly told Jin Yao that he would let her know when he was leaving. However, he never expected that all of this would happen so suddenly.
The sun was high in the morning. After this trip to the Heavenly Clouds Auction House, Xiao Yan should be able to leave Yan City soon. However, could this be considered as leaving without saying goodbye? Although Jin Yao was the one who knew about this news, Xiao Yan still felt a little apologetic in his heart.
"Mister Xiao Yan, let's go."
Fang Qian could see the apprehension and hesitation in Xiao Yan's heart. For the sake of this important matter, Fang Qian had no choice but to wake Xiao Yan up from this state.
After regaining his senses, Xiao Yan's expression slightly froze as his gaze involuntarily turned towards the direction that Jin Yao had left. Because she was worried about Xiao Yan, the direction that Jin Yao had left in was not towards the Thousand Medicinal House.
"Mister Xiao Yan …"
"Let's go."
Fang Qian seemed to be a little impatient, but his voice was still calm. However, there was a slight tremble in his voice like a zither string, indicating that the latter's heart was not at peace.
Xiao Yan interrupted Fang Qian's words as his figure flashed as he led the way in a familiar manner, while Fang Qian followed beside him.
After he and Dong Chuan found out about Xiao Yan's identity, they no longer dared to treat the latter with the status of a superior. Furthermore, the latter was no ordinary individual. When they faced Xiao Yan now, they unknowingly felt that Xiao Yan was a head above them. However, Xiao Yan did not care about this.
Xiao Yan flew forward as he rushed into the empty air. At the same time, he sensed the gazes that were thrown over from the city below. Almost everyone's eyes were filled with respect.
"Hehe, Mister Xiao Yan's strength is extraordinary. After your previous exchange with Lu Cheng, no one in Yan City would dare to be disrespectful to Mister."
Fang Qian smiled as he spoke, his words unavoidably laced with flattery.
Upon hearing these words, Xiao Yan did not comment as he smiled. He still clearly remembered the disdain and pity in these people's eyes when they looked at him back then. This was not because Xiao Yan was holding a grudge, but because he had seen too much and Xiao Yan no longer believed in them.
These people were like foxes. One moment, they might be smiling at you, but who knows when they will bite you in the next moment.
These people were even more treacherous than the grass on the top of a wall.
After the short scam, Xiao Yan and Fang Qian once again arrived at the Tianyun Auction House. It was still the same small courtyard. From afar, Xiao Yan could see a figure standing in the middle. Needless to say, it was naturally Dong Chuan.
When Xiao Yan and Fang Qian landed in the middle of the small courtyard, Dong Chuan had already turned around. First, he swiftly exchanged glances with Fang Qian, then looked towards Xiao Yan as he laughed heartily:
"Haha, Mister Xiao Yan, it has only been a few days since we last met and you look so much better than before!"
Xiao Yan smiled. He really could not stand this Dong Chuan, who had started to flatter him the moment he arrived.
"This time, I am here to find out more about the Fire Plume Flower. President Dong, please speak your mind."
Following Dong Chuan's footsteps, Xiao Yan sat down at a stone table that had already been prepared and slowly spoke.
When they saw that Xiao Yan had cut straight to the chase, Dong Chuan and Fang Qian could not help but look at each other. The speech that they had prepared in advance was instantly shattered by this one sentence.
"Uh …"
"That's just as well. I know that mister Xiao Yan has waited for a long time. Therefore, I shall not say any unnecessary words. We have already confirmed the news of the Fire Plume Flower. Two months ago, a Fire Plume Flower was indeed born. However, it has already been plucked by someone. Now, the owner of that Fire Plume Flower wishes to auction off that Fire Plume Flower in an auction. There is less than a month's time left until the auction."
After a slight pause, Dong Chuan decided not to beat around the bush and spoke directly.
"Auction? A month? Then President Dong, do you know where the auction will be held? "
Forcefully suppressing the excitement in his heart, Xiao Yan picked out the key point in Dong Chuan's words.
"Yes, according to my understanding, the auction will be held in a city called Xuan City. Unfortunately, Xuan City is located within the territory of the Sky Sword Sect."
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, a surprised expression involuntarily flashed across Dong Chuan's face. Soon after, he continued to speak. However, his following words caused Xiao Yan to involuntarily frown.
It was unexpected that the auction location of the Fire Plume Flower would actually be within the territory of the Sky Sword Sect. In this way, it was extremely likely that he would bump into people from the Sky Sword Sect on this trip!
After the incident at the Desolate Ancient Remains, the Sky Sword Sect would definitely hate him to the core. With Xiao Yan's last Annihilation Fire Lotus, he had caused the Sky Sword Sect to suffer quite a great loss. A total of two three star Dou Di and one of them was the heir of the Huo Clan. This time around, once Xiao Yan's identity was exposed, he would likely be surrounded and killed by the Sky Sword Sect!
"Do you know the exact location of Xuan City?"
Xiao Yan's brows were tightly knit together. His expression was solemn. The last time around, it was because Leng Bingshuang had intervened in time that he had the opportunity to leave that place alive. This time around, Leng Bingshuang and Gu You were no longer around. The only person that Xiao Yan could rely on was himself.
"The location of Xuan City …"
Dong Chuan had just opened his mouth when he paused. He was also aware that the Fire Plume Flower was extremely important to Xiao Yan. However, at the same time, he also knew that once he told Xiao Yan the exact location of Xuan City, it was extremely likely that he would face a life and death situation.
Xiao Yan involuntarily frowned after guessing the concern in Dong Chuan's heart. This was like a man and a woman who were taking off their clothes. They were halfway through taking off their clothes when the woman suddenly stopped. It caused one to feel extremely anxious and uncomfortable.
However, soon after, Xiao Yan smiled slyly. He parted his mouth and looked at Dong Chuan. His face was filled with laughter as he said,
"Since you have already said so much, you can't possibly stop here. Moreover, since it is a city within the territory of the Heavenly Sword Sect, there are definitely many people who know about it. Even if you don't tell me, I can still go out and ask around."
Dong Chuan suddenly came to a realization when he heard this. At the same time, he smiled helplessly. He glanced at Fang Qian and discovered that the latter was also looking at him with a bitter smile. Immediately, the both of them sighed in their hearts. Dong Chuan lifted his head to look at Xiao Yan and helplessly said,
"Xuan City is located at the border between the Huo Clan and the Bai Clan. It is a city that is jointly managed by the two clans. Due to the Fire Plume Flower being auctioned this time around, it has attracted the attention of many experts from the two clans. Therefore …"
"Haha, thank you for informing me, chairman Dong."
Before Dong Chuan could finish speaking, Xiao Yan smiled faintly and cupped his hands together towards Dong Chuan. The smile on his face appeared to be quite relaxed.
"Mister Xiao Yan, are you not worried about the people from the two large clans?"
Dong Chuan frowned. His words contained some anger. He did not expect that Xiao Yan did not reveal the slightest trace of worry when he said these words. Instead, he appeared to be indifferent. Could it be that he was not the least bit worried about the people from the Huo Clan and the Bai Clan?
Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head when he heard Dong Chuan's words that contained a warning tone. Seeing this, Dong Chuan's face immediately became anxious as he hurriedly said,
"Mister Xiao Yan, the two clans will send elite Dou Di to the scene. At that time, once …"
"Haha, chairman Dong, there is no need to worry. It has not reached that time yet. Why should you be worried? Being afraid before the battle is the beginning of failure. I don't think that I will be held back by them. Since I dare to go, I naturally have my own means to protect my life. Dong Hui Zheng need not worry about this point.
Besides … "Xiao Yan softly smiled. At the end of his words, he suddenly paused. At the same time, deep within Xiao Yan's eyes, a glint flashed across.
Seeing this, Dong Chuan helplessly sighed. He could only hope that Xiao Yan really had his own means to protect his life. Otherwise, the trip to Xuan City would be troublesome. They did not wish for Xiao Yan, whom Luo Jin had instructed them to help, to hand over his life because of them. This was not something that Luo Jin wanted to see. Similarly, they did not want to see it.
"Haha, if there is nothing else, I will return first."
After saying these words, Xiao Yan turned around and prepared to leave.
"Mister Xiao Yan, you are going back? Where are you going? "
Xiao Yan had just turned around when Fang Qian and Dong Chuan behind him were instantly stunned. They exchanged glances with each other. Immediately, Fang Qian asked in a curious tone.
"Ah, I am naturally going to the Thousand Medicine House."
Xiao Yan smiled faintly. The frowns of the two people behind him became even more intense.
"Mister Xiao Yan, Xuan City is quite a distance from Yan City. There is less than a month's time left. If you continue to waste time like this, I'm afraid …"
"Don't worry, I am confident."
Xiao Yan's back was facing the two of them. As he softly laughed, he waved his hand with his back facing the two of them. After which, his body moved and his feet stepped into the air. Soon after, he flew in the opposite direction of the Thousand Medicine House.
