"This... this is... the Brushing Jade Fan!"
Upon seeing the jade fan in Elder Xuan's hand, Mu Han and the others were immediately shocked and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Their gazes towards Elder Xuan were filled with deep solemnity.
They weren't somber for Elder Xuan, but rather for the owner of the Brushing Jade Fan in his hand.
In the Ancient Wilderness City, everyone knows the power of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. The Cloud-Hidden Pavilion is a powerful force with a true Dou Di expert as its protector!
Although their strength is insufficient to fully grasp the true extent of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, its power, based on its status as a Dou Di Cloud-Hidden Pavilion Emperor), far exceeds their imagination!
" The Brushing Jade Fan has appeared in the Wilderness... could it be... that he has returned!"
Yan Bing, standing behind Mu Han, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
As he said this, even his usually indifferent face couldn't help but show some emotion.
"But that guy, didn't he go to another state? Why is he back?"
Old Monster Hu stared intently at the Brushing Jade Fan in Elder Xuan's hand, and said in a surprised tone.
"Those who leave can naturally return. This is something I overlooked... I should have thought of it sooner!"
At this moment, Mo Zhai's face also showed a heavy expression. Compared to Yan Bing and Old Monster Hu, he was even more terrified of the one from the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion.
Unfortunately, he was the weakest among them.
As soon as Mo Zhai finished speaking, Mu Han, who was at the front of the group facing Elder Xuan, immediately sensed something amiss. He turned his head slightly, glancing at Mo Zhai out of the corner of his eye, and frowned, saying:
"What exactly happened? Explain yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Zhai's already furrowed brows furrowed even more deeply. He nodded slightly, pondering the time when he first arrived in the Ancient Wilderness City a few months ago.
At that time, he was in the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. As Second-Tier Alchemist, he was highly respected by everyone. That day, the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion suddenly closed its gates, prohibiting any outsiders from entering. However, Xiao Yan entered the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion under the guidance of Elder Xuan.
Mo Zhai clearly remembered that Elder Xuan had told him that the Pavilion Master of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion had returned. However, the two had only exchanged a few words in a hurry, so Mo Zhai hadn't taken it to heart. But now, thinking about it carefully, what Elder Xuan said at the time was probably absolutely true.
When Mu Han and the others heard that Elder Xuan had brought Xiao Yan into the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, they were slightly shocked. It turned out that Xiao Yan had already become involved with the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion several months ago. Moreover, judging from the situation, the reason why the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion closed its doors to guests that day was probably at the behest of the Pavilion Master.
Knowing all this, Mu Han gradually came to his senses. This auction was probably not as simple as it seemed. He believed that the array formations outside the VIP room definitely did not belong to Heavenly Cloud Auction House. Therefore, it could only be him!
"Why, why are so many people helping him? Just who is this kid?!"
Thinking of this, and then recalling the group of Half-Emperor around Xiao Yan, even with Mu Han's composure, he couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed.
"Hehe, Master Mu, since that's the case, I won't bother you any longer. I heard that Master Mu 've come here for the Void Lightning Pool Invitation as well. Haha, I wish Master Mu a fruitful journey!"
Just as Mu Han was lost in thought, Elder Xuan's faint laughter rang out again, pulling Mu Han back from his inner world. After speaking, Elder Xuan couldn't help but cough twice before grabbing Song Gang beside him and preparing to leave.
"Wait!"
"Um?"
Upon seeing Elder Xuan, Mu Han was about to leave when he quickly spoke up to stop him. But then he realized his tone was off and quickly changed his words, smiling at Elder Xuan:
"Hehe, Brother Xuan Ye, please wait. I admit that I accidentally injured you both in a moment of anger. If there was any negligence on my part, I hope you can forgive me!"
" Master Mu, there's no need to beat around the bush. Just speak your mind."
Mu Han's sudden politeness did not surprise Elder Xuan and his companion; they had seen many such people and were already used to it.
Upon hearing Elder Xuan's blunt words, Mu Han couldn't help but show an awkward smile. He then stopped arguing and said directly:
"Brother Xuan Ye, I have long admired your master, but he has always been elusive and I have never seen him before. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to see the Pavilion Master's true face today?"
As he spoke, Mu Han's face appeared completely sincere; anyone who didn't know better would have truly believed that his words came from the bottom of his heart.
Xuan Ye sneered inwardly; this scene was exactly what Luo Jin had expected.
The meeting was a pretense; the real purpose was to probe their background.
Mu Han didn't expect to meet the Pavilion Master of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion; he just wanted to confirm his own thoughts.
"Uh... this... this probably won't work, Master Mu. You should know that my master is aloof and elusive, and even we rarely see him. He absolutely cannot allow any outsiders to disturb him if he wants to see someone. But if he hasn't said he wants to see someone or doesn't want to see someone, then no matter how capable you are, it's absolutely impossible."
"At this moment, my master is having a private meeting with Yan Xiao, so..."
Xuan Ye frowned slightly as he looked at Mu Han, a troubled expression on his face. Mu Han's request seemed to be giving him a real headache.
"Ah... in that case... Brother Xuan Ye, I won't trouble you any further. After all, he's a figure with such immense influence as the Pavilion Master; his decisions are truly beyond our control..."
Mu Han sighed helplessly, a look of disappointment on his face. Yan Bing and Old Monster Hu behind him saw all of this and kept it in mind.
"In that case, I will not linger any longer. Please have some time to rest, Master Mu. I will be returning now."
With that, Xuan Ye took Song Gang's hand and stepped out, heading towards the VIP room.
As they reached the door, Mu Han, standing behind them, once again spoke up to stop them.
"Brother Xuan Ye, please wait!"
With their backs to Mu Han, Xuan Ye and Song Gang frowned slightly, exchanged a barely perceptible glance, and were filled with suspicion.
What on earth is this guy up to?
Turning around, Xuan Ye saw that Mu Han had already come up behind them. He frowned and was about to speak when Mu Han stretched out his palm. A flash of light appeared in his palm, and two perfectly round pills the size of dragon eyes appeared in Mu Han's hand.
"Brother Xuan Ye, you and Brother Song Gang..."
"Who's your brother?!"
Before he could finish speaking, Song Gang roared, and the invisible pressure he exuded caused the entire VIP room to tremble slightly.
"Well..."
Mu Han was also startled for a moment by the sudden shout, but he quickly recovered. His old face didn't show any displeasure; instead, he smiled and said:
"Hehe, yes, yes, you two are both injured to some extent. I have two Emperor Grade Pill here as compensation!"
Upon hearing this, Song Gang remained expressionless, clearly indifferent, while Xuan Ye raised an eyebrow slightly, showing a hint of surprise.
To be honest, although they had each taken a blow from Mu Han, they were not seriously injured. However, Mu Han was even more excited than they were, and immediately offered two Emperor Grade Pill.
Two minor injuries to his palms, but he got two Emperor Grade Pill in return. This is a huge profit!
Xuan Ye smiled, unlike Song Gang who was indifferent. Instead, he took the pill from Mu Han's hand with a warm expression and put it into his Storage Ring right in front of Mu Han.
Seeing this, Mu Han smiled awkwardly again, and Xuan Ye smiled in return. Then, without further delay, ignoring Mu Han, he turned and stepped out of the shattered stone door, heading towards the VIP room where Xiao Yan and Luo Jin were...
As Xuan Ye and Song Gang disappeared around the corner of the passage, the smile on Mu Han's face gradually faded, replaced by a gloomy expression.
Turning around, Mu Han's icy gaze swept over Mo Zhai, causing the latter to shudder. Panting, Mu Han saw all the damaged furniture in the VIP room and recalled what Xuan Ye had said earlier. The anger that had been suppressed for so long finally erupted at this moment.
"Sit down... Sit down my ass!"
The hoarse growl was deafening in the confined space. Yan Bing and the other two exchanged glances, but wisely remained silent.
