Ye Yun had heard of Lin Xiao and the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace long ago.
But the Dou Qi Continent was vast. It was perfectly normal for people to share a name.
So Ye Yun had heard about Xiao Lin storming the Yellow Springs Pavilion under the name Lin Xiao and later founding the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace.
Even so, he had assumed Elder Lin was still working at Jia Nan Academy. Why would he have come to the Central Plains and caused such a stir?
Ye Yun had suspected they might be the same person, but it had been no more than a suspicion.
After all, how embarrassing would it be if he got it wrong?
Then, today, while Ye Yun was discussing Ye Family affairs with his father, he heard that Lin Xiao, palace master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, had come to visit. He immediately wanted to find out for himself.
And Ye Yun discovered they really were the same person!
He was overjoyed!
That was how the earlier scene had come about.
"Palace Master Lin Xiao, I've long heard of your great reputation! I am Ye Zhong, first elder of the Ye Family. I never imagined you were also Elder Lin from Jia Nan Academy, where my son Ye Yun once studied. For saving my son back then, the Ye Family will surely repay you generously!"
Ye Zhong's words expressed more than gratitude for Xiao Lin saving Ye Yun. He also wanted to draw closer to him!
After all, the Ye Family's standing in the Pill Region had become rather precarious.
They had placed last in two consecutive Pill Gathering assessments. Even their permanent elder seat at Danta was nearly lost.
Naturally, the Ye Family was eager to befriend someone as formidable as Xiao Lin,
