"Huang Xiao, these two seniors wish to find the Hall Master," Shi Hen said.
"That's right. Where exactly is Huo Lian?" Zuo Qiu Shu asked.
Huang Xiao was startled. Even Lord Shi addressed the two as seniors. Did that mean they were older than Lord Shi?
Who knows how many years they've lived, Huang Xiao thought to himself.
Though these thoughts crossed his mind, he hurriedly answered, "The Hall Master's movements are unpredictable. This disciple does not know where he is now either."
Without his patriarch's permission, he could not possibly reveal his patriarch's residence.
"Boy, you dare lie to our faces?" Zuo Qiu Shu said coldly.
"Forgive me, Senior. The Hall Master has been very busy lately, coming and going without warning. I truly do not know his whereabouts," Huang Xiao said.
"Just tell us some of the places where Huo Lian stays," Old Fan said.

"Haha, he is a Hall Master Candidate, after all. With such strength at such a young age, how could he manage without a little cleverness?" Old Fan laughed heartily. "Speak. You must know where Huo Lian stays. I don't want to catch you playing clever little tricks again."
Huang Xiao looked rather uncomfortable.
"There is a question I would like to ask you two seniors," Huang Xiao said after some thought.
"Ask," Old Fan
