"Please report that Zhu Fenglin wishes to see the Clan Chief," Zhu Fenglin said hurriedly.
"Zhu Fenglin?" A trace of confusion initially flashed across the disciple's face, but he quickly realized who he was and snapped, "Zhu Fenglin, you've already been expelled from the Zhu Family. You still dare come back?"
Although more than a hundred years had passed since the incident involving Zhu Fengmu, the Zhu Family's disciples clearly still remembered it.
After all, it concerned their Zhu Family's Sacred Land. They could not forget it even if they wanted to.
"I've come back to rejoin the Zhu Family," Zhu Fenglin said.
"You want to rejoin the Zhu Family? What a fool's dream! Get lost, or don't blame me for showing no mercy!" the disciple shouted.
But as soon as he finished speaking, his expression abruptly changed. "You-you mean?"
"That's right. I have a lead on the key," Zhu Fenglin said calmly.
Huang Xiao could sense that the man's breathing had clearly quickened. Zhu Fenglin's news had evidently been rather too shocking for him.
"Why haven't you gone to report it yet?"
"Wait here, Zhu Fenglin. But if you're lying to me, you know the consequences." With that, the disciple turned and hurried away.
Anything involving the key to the Sacred Land was a matter of tremendous importance.
How could he dare be negligent?
Although he had left Zhu Fenglin with a harsh warning, he believed Zhu Fenglin would not lie to him about something so important.
Lying to him was of little consequence, but if the Clan Chief laid blame, Zhu Fenglin would undoubtedly die.
Before long, the man returned with an old man.
At the sight of the old man, Huang Xiao's heart tightened.
He was unquestionably an expert. Huang Xiao could not fathom him at all.
