The old man's words left the entire square dead silent!
Countless people widened their eyes and stared fixedly at Yue Ru atop the tower, as though looking upon someone worthy of the utmost respect!
They knew all too well just how significant the title of inheritor was!
"Senior, I don't care about such things. Why did you..." Yue Ru frowned slightly. She had only wanted to join a sect quietly, cultivate until she could receive the inheritance, then accept it and help Xiao Yan.
Though she did not know why, Yue Ru could vaguely sense that Xiao Yan carried some extraordinary secrets. She had learned this from the inheritance mark on her forehead.
Moreover, Xiao Yan had healed her father's injuries. Now that her father was managing the family, they no longer had to worry about food or clothing. She had wasted too much time before, but now, in the prime of her youth, she had time to pursue her own happiness.
"Hehehe, no matter, no matter."
"After all, this is also a blessing from heaven upon Xuan Tian San." The old man smiled in satisfaction after speaking.
"I know your concern. It would not be good for your identity as an inheritor to be exposed, but what you do not know is that inheritors are especially respected within Xuan Tian San. There are only a handful of them, and every one of them receives the attention and protection of Xuan Tian San's great figures. So you need not worry too much." The old man had clearly misunderstood Yue Ru's meaning and hurriedly explained.
Yue Ru did not say anything further.
"She is actually an inheritor!" The commotion in the square surged to new heights. Everyone present knew the value of an inheritor. They were figures capable of rivaling alchemists!
