Li Yuan's appearance took Jiang Man somewhat by surprise.
Tomorrow was the sixteenth of June.
It was the day they would compete for Spell Arts.
By all rights, Li Yuan should have been absent.
He had already prepared for Li Yuan not to show up and decided what he would do.
He hadn't expected him to appear here.
He steadied his mind and brought the spiritual qi in his body under control.
If not for his sixth level of spirit, he really would have needed several days to consolidate his cultivation.
The only pity was that his physical body wasn't strong enough.
Otherwise, it would have been faster.
"Young Master Li, were you looking for me?" Jiang Man asked.
"The Li Lineage has done a lot to target you. Did you know that?" Li Yuan asked.
Jiang Man nodded. "I did. I also knew they would make sure you stayed away."
"You knew?" Li Yuan sounded rather surprised. "You didn't mind?"
"Mind what?" Jiang Man shrugged. "If you're going to stay away, I can't stop you."
Though now, he actually could stop him.
But whatever the Li Lineage's people did then, even a hundred mouths wouldn't let him clear his name.
Especially with Li Yuan still on the Li Lineage's side, he would have even less chance of explaining things clearly.
He would only end up covered in trouble.
Just like back when he wanted the Qi Refining Method, while Li Yuan wanted the Visualization Method.
Their interests differed.
So they couldn't reach a consensus.
Thus, as a Peerless Heavenly Prodigy, whether the other party came or not, the outcome would be the same.
Li Yuan was somewhat surprised by Jiang Man's answer. He didn't seem to care much whether he participated.
He had wanted to question him properly, but
