Lei Protector felt that made sense and could only nod. "It seems I was too impatient."
"Elder Lei, in four months at the earliest, half a year at the latest, the Reach the Summit Shop will definitely set foot in the Northern Spirit Realm!" Tang Yan said with a smile.
At his words, Lei Protector's and Elder Fan's eyes lit up.
"Half a year is acceptable. We can discuss the details then." Lei Protector laughed heartily.
After chatting with the two for a while, Tang Yan suddenly asked, "By the way, have you heard of Mingyou Valley?"
Both men's expressions shifted. After a long moment, Elder Fan asked in some surprise, "You've had dealings with that place too?"
"No, I happened to hear of that faction, so I thought I'd ask," Tang Yan said with a smile.
"Mingyou Valley is in the southern Northern Spirit Realm. They have some ability," Lei Protector offered an objective assessment.
Tang Yan's heart gave a jolt. If Lei Protector described them as having some ability, that place really did seem rather troublesome.
"Tang Yan, who is your master?" Lei Protector suddenly asked.
"Well... I truly don't know. My master concealed his identity and cared little for fame or fortune. After teaching me some martial arts and cultivation methods, he drifted away. He never mentioned his name to me. I only met him a year ago and haven't seen him since." Tang Yan sighed. "Perhaps once my strength improves further, I'll be able to find some news of him."
"He truly is an extraordinary master. Do you know how strong he is?" Lei Protector pressed.
"I don't know his exact strength, but my master once vaguely mentioned that he was a Ninth-Tier Alchemist."
Boom!
Upon hearing Tang Yan's words, Lei Protector and Elder Fan shuddered.
