"Guardian Spirit..."

"I don't know much about it."

Li Yan did want to know more.

Unfortunately, he couldn't even see it.

Knowing more would be like scratching an itch through a boot...

What good would it do?

"So I just went straight to Master Xiao's room."

Li Yan smiled.

"I'm in Master Xiao's room right now, talking to you."

"I've got the phone on speaker."

He didn't tell the two elders that the phone had been on speaker the whole time.

He was worried they might feel embarrassed.

Though everything they'd said earlier could easily have been played out loud.

There was nothing embarrassing about it.

If there had been, he wouldn't have left the speaker on.

"Should I just hand the phone to Master Xiao?"

He could turn off the speaker.

Li Yan offered another option.

Perhaps the two elders didn't mind their conversation with him being played out loud.

But they might not want their conversation with Master Xiao played out loud.

That was possible too.

The two elders were a little taken aback.

They looked at each other.

Well...

"...Let's leave it on speaker."

There was nothing they wanted to say to Master Xiao that they needed to hide from Li Yan.

Li Yan already knew about the situation.

Besides, Li Yan had been instrumental in getting Master Xiao to come this time.

They wouldn't throw their great benefactor under the bus once they'd gotten what they wanted.

They were very grateful to Li Yan.

"Okay."

Li Yan's eyes lit up a little.

Now he could openly listen in on Grandpa Man and the others talking to Master Xiao.

Heh heh.

Grinning, Li Yan handed his phone to Xiao Xiao.

"Xiao Xiao, Grandpa Man and the others want to talk to you."
