Huang Xiao naturally heard what everyone said, but he paid it no heed.
The Beggar Gang disciple leading the way hurriedly saluted the Jianghu experts in the hall. "Greetings, seniors. Might I ask you to make way so I can take this lord through?"
"Through? Where to?" someone asked in surprise and suspicion.
"I was ordered to escort this lord to the inner hall," the Beggar Gang disciple replied respectfully.
"What?"
"Did I hear that right? The inner hall? This brat is going to the inner hall?"
"What is this? Even we can only stay in the outer hall. What right does this brat have to enter the inner hall? So what if he's an 'Arrest Sage Special Envoy' from the Six Gates?" quite a few experts protested.
They were all distinguished experts with considerable standing, yet even they could only remain in the outer hall. In their eyes, this brat was not even qualified to join them there.
Now they heard he was going into the inner hall. How could they allow that?
Was the inner hall somewhere just anyone could enter? The outer hall was a gathering place for the sect leaders and elders of first-rate sects, but the inner hall was almost exclusively a place for the elders and experts of the renowned great sects of the Jianghu to rest.
The renowned great sects were different from their first-rate sects. Their sect leaders naturally would not come in person, so most of their representatives were elders, or deputy sect leaders at most.
Still, they wholeheartedly accepted the people inside. After all, neither their sects' influence nor their own strength could match those people's. They naturally had nothing to say about them occupying the inner hall.
And now this brat had arrived and completely broken the rules here.
