"My friend, may I ask your name?"
Elder Xuan changed the subject, ignoring Li Kang's resentful expression, and instead looked at Xiao Yan standing to the side with a smile, asking him with a grin.
Others might not be able to see Xiao Yan's true strength, but how could he not see it? At the Mid-Stage Three-Star Half-Emperor, in this Ancient Wilderness City, he could already be considered an extremely powerful figure.
Although Li Kang also has a remarkable background in this Ancient Wilderness City, he would have to think twice before trying to harm the young man in front of him.
Upon hearing the old man's words, Xiao Yan smiled faintly, clasped his hands in a fist salute to Elder Xuan, and said with a smile:
"I am Yan Xiao!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he smiled in response, then continued with another laugh:
"Young friend Yan Xiao, today's matter was caused by my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion's failure to uphold justice for you, which has wasted much of your time. Therefore, I will consider this piece of Flame Essence Jade Marrow as a way of establishing friendship with you, and also as an apology from my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. This item will be given to you free of charge!"
Upon hearing Elder Xuan's words, everyone in the hall, including Li Kang, changed their expressions once again. It was clear that he was intentionally trying to befriend Yan Xiao, which was why he was being so generous!
It should be known that as a super power, Cloud-Hidden Pavilion contains only rare treasures that are hard to find outside. Everything in the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion is priceless!
Therefore, Cloud-Hidden Pavilion also has another well-known name in the outside world— Heavenly Rarities Pavilion.
These three simple words are enough to demonstrate the true value of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion!
In the eyes of most people, this is probably the real reason why the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion is able to possess such strength!
After all, without a sufficiently large amount of resources and power, who would be willing to join his Cloud-Hidden Pavilion?
Upon hearing Elder Xuan's words, Xiao Yan's expression faltered slightly. Even if he knew that Elder Xuan was Half-Emperor- Emperor, that alone was not enough to make him hand over the Flame Essence Jade Marrow!
Xiao Yan didn't believe a word of what Elder Xuan said about fairness or unfairness; he thought it was just empty talk to fool people.
Xiao Yan didn't believe he possessed anything that would warrant Elder Xuan's intervention. After all, even with his current strength, he wouldn't rank highly within the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion!
But if that's the case, then why did Elder Xuan give him this Flame Essence Jade Marrow in the first place?
After a long and fruitless search, Xiao Yan had no more interest in thinking about it. At this moment, as long as he could get his hands on the Flame Essence Jade Marrow, the purpose of Elder Xuan Xiao Yan no longer so important. If Elder Xuan really wanted to do something to him, Xiao Yan was confident that he would make sure that Elder Xuan never returned!
"Then, Elder Xuan!"
Xiao Yan cupped his hands again, nodded slightly, and smiled at Elder Xuan.
Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan smiled again, his old eyes gleaming. He had guessed most of Xiao Yan's thoughts, and his gaze towards Xiao Yan now held a hint of admiration.
"Young friend Yan Xiao Yan Xiao, what are you saying? Today's events were due to the negligence of my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, which led to someone attempting to seize what they wanted by force. I should give you an explanation, so there's no need for thanks!"
Elder Xuan's pointed words caused Li Kang, who had been standing silently to the side, to turn red in the face, his anger almost bursting. If Elder Xuan hadn't been there, even if this were Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, Li Kang would probably have attacked Xiao Yan force!
The other Dou Sheng Expert, upon sensing the faint, ferocious killing intent emanating from Li Kang, all had their expressions instantly change.
As if afraid of provoking this killing god again, they all bowed to Elder Xuan and took their leave. In a short while, the hall on the fourth floor became empty.
The only ones left were Li Kang and the Eight-Star Dou Sheng behind him. Of course, Xiao Yan was in no hurry to leave. After all, Li Kang was still here, and he wanted to see what Li Kang was planning to do.
Seeing Xiao Yan's smiling, playful expression, Elder Xuan felt helpless and looked at Li Kang with disgust.
Li Kang usually acted like a spoiled brat, and he did a lot of things by abusing his power. However, because of his status, he couldn't say anything.
Furthermore, Li Kang's grandfather is quite capable; even Cloud-Hidden Pavilion has to give him some face within this Ancient Wilderness City.
This also made Li Kang fearless of anyone, even when facing Dou Sheng Expert, he showed no respect whatsoever.
But today, he just happened to run into Xiao Yan, so he can only blame himself.
The silence lasted for a while before Elder Xuan turned his gaze to Li Kang. He knew that if Xiao Yan didn't leave first, Li Kang would probably stay here indefinitely.
However, judging from Xiao Yan's expression, he was clearly indifferent to the matter. Elder Xuan sighed helplessly, his eyes darting around before his expression hardening as he spoke again to Li Kang:
"Young Master Li, your actions just now have scared away all the guests of my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion! According to the rules of my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, although you did not lay a hand on us, the act has already been committed. Therefore, Young Master Li, please leave my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion and do not set foot in my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion again for one month!"
As soon as these blatant words of humiliation were uttered, Li Kang's face instantly turned gloomy. In the silent hall, even the sound of his teeth grinding could be heard, which was enough to show the rage in Li Kang's heart at this moment.
"Young Master Li, are you perhaps going to violate the rules of my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion?"
At this moment, Elder Xuan's aged face revealed a cold and stern expression. As he spoke, he also used a bit of Dou Qi, causing the entire hall to tremble.
With the added power of Dou Qi, Elder Xuan's voice traveled directly through the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion and reached the ears of the people in the city.
Instantly, the crowd in the city erupted in excitement once again. In this Ancient Wilderness City, who wouldn't know that the person called Young Master Li is Li Kang? And now, Li Kang actually dared to violate the rules of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. Even if his grandfather came, it would probably be of no use!
"Heh heh, this bastard is really audacious, daring to violate the rules of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. Judging from the senior speaking now, he must be Elder Xuan, haha, serves him right!"
"Shh, keep your voice down! If the Li Clan family hears you, you'll lose your head!"
As soon as Elder Xuan uttered his words, some people let out a cold laugh. Of course, there were also those who cautiously reminded him, after all, Li Kang's reputation was known to everyone in this Ancient Wilderness City. If they could avoid provoking him, naturally no one would be so foolish as to court death.
At this moment, inside the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, Li Kang naturally had no time to care about what the outside world was saying about him. At this moment, he was filled with endless anger. But even so, after struggling with himself, he still reluctantly agreed and then quickly disappeared from the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion with the old man behind him.
"Hehe, Brother Yan Xiao, now that these two have both left, I have given them the appropriate punishment. Your displeasure should have dissipated by now, right?"
Xiao Yan smiled upon hearing this. How could he not know that this Elder Xuan was probably afraid that he might actually kill the two of them in a fit of anger in the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion?
"It's a trivial matter, I don't take it to heart. But if they still want to offend me, I'm not someone who can be easily bullied."
Seeing the ruthlessness on Xiao Yan's face, Elder Xuan's expression shifted slightly. He laughed heartily and spoke again:
"Haha, that's for sure. Today's events are simply because my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion is, after all, a business, and trouble would damage its reputation. But once he's outside of my Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, what happens to Li Kang is entirely up to his own fate, haha..."
"However, it's worth mentioning that Brother Yan Xiao, Li Kang's grandfather is also quite powerful, being Six-Star Half-Emperor. I hope Brother Yan Xiao will be careful!"
Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes. No wonder Li Kang dared to be so bold; his grandfather's strength had actually reached the level of Six-Star Half-Emperor.
However, even so, it was nothing to Xiao Yan. He had already killed two Eight-Star Half-Emperor. What big waves could a Six-Star Half-Emperor stir up? It was just a matter of one Buddha's Fury Reincarnation.
But Xiao Yan Xiao Yan n't very well ignore Elder Xuan's kind suggestion, so after thanking him, he chuckled softly again:
"As long as he doesn't bother me, I can't be bothered with him."
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Elder Xuan's expression faltered slightly. To utter such words before Six-Star Half-Emperor was truly astonishing; it was a mystery where he got such courage.
Nodding with a smile, Elder Xuan said no more, and Xiao Yan had no intention of explaining further. If Li Kang's grandfather really wanted to attack him, Elder Xuan would understand in time.
The two chatted for a few more minutes, but Elder Xuan was speechless. Even with his shrewdness, he still felt helpless when facing Xiao Yan. No matter how cleverly he questioned him, he couldn't get even a single piece of information out of Xiao Yan.
After a long while, Xiao Yan finally left Cloud-Hidden Pavilion under Elder Xuan's strange gaze, and Elder Xuan's figure slowly disappeared, as if he had never appeared at all.
As Xiao Yan left Cloud-Hidden Pavilion Cloud-Hidden Pavilion, on the sixth floor, a place never before visited by outsiders, a young man in a green robe watched Xiao Yan's figure with a smile as he slowly disappeared into the crowd...
Because of the barrier erected by the Dou Di expert, Xiao Yan was completely unaware of the man.
