Telling Them

Zhou Hao and the others did not conceal their auras, so the moment they arrived outside Nameless Star, Cai Yong sensed them and immediately came out to welcome them.

Seeing Cai Yong appear, Fang Ru burst into laughter. "Cai Yong, long time no see."

"Where the hell did you run off to? I couldn't find you no matter how hard I looked. I only came here because you had nothing to do, but now I'm the one holding down the fort. Aren't you ashamed?" Cai Yong seized Fang Ru and launched into a stream of complaints.

Fang Ru awkwardly turned his head away and laughed it off. "We'll talk about that later. I came back this time for serious business."

Cai Yong paused before turning to Zhou Hao and the others. He immediately asked with a smile, "You two came back so soon?"

"Mm. We came back with your Sect Master." Zhou Hao pointed at Fang Ru and replied calmly.

Hearing that, Cai Yong shifted his gaze to Fang Ru, looking somewhat puzzled. However, he said nothing here and merely invited them in. "Come sit inside first! I need to find out what exactly is going on with you all."

He could not quite make sense of Fang Ru's relationship with Zhou Hao and the others.

"Let's talk inside," Fang Ru said as well.

Naturally, Zhou Hao and Murong had no objections.

Afterward, they followed Fang Ru and Cai Yong to a pavilion by the lake.

Since Fang Ru had returned, they had to give him some proper face. And if they were going to discuss matters, they needed a quiet and elegant place.

Cai Yong sat beside Fang Ru and asked, "How did you all come back together?"

Zhou Hao glanced at Fang Ru, indicating for him to explain.
