The Royal Family ordered everyone in Liluo City to remain silent about Yan Xiaobao and his rank; however, some rumors have left the city, causing ripples in the usually quiet Sun Kingdom.
Fortunately, those rumors ended there. Everyone had heard of the miraculous young prodigy who had reached the Holy Land before the age of twenty, but no one knew where he was now or if it was even true.
Everyone quickly assumed it was started by experts in Liluo City for fame, or as an explanation for the disaster where an expert named Wang was slain by his own son.
The Royal Kingdom has sent a silent crow to every corner of the Kingdom, but even a trace of the young genius and his friends has not appeared.
"What do you mean he disappeared?" Zhong Hui’s voice carried far more weight than usual; the icy-cold man standing before him shrugged, his youthful and handsome face twisted with worry.
"After the battle for the City King of Liluo City, we lost track of him," the cold man explained again. Although it was apparent Zhong Hui was his superior, he showed no sign of fear upon seeing this anxious young man.
"Good. Very good," Zong Hui said as he leaned against his icy throne. With a straight face while he pondered briefly, suddenly a brilliant smile illuminated the room.
"Let’s see how long he can hide. Send seven Crusaders to find him!"
Seated in the yard, Yan Xiaobao sighed deeply, as the arrogance previously emitted was no longer there. Instead, he once again appeared as a calm and composed young man, very handsome, but his noble aura had faded.
"We will have to stay here for a while," Yan Xiaobao said apologetically while looking around, noting the positions of each recording stone, then began destroying them one by one with the help of black blood.
Hui Le infused spiritual energy into it, precisely throwing daggers that landed on the stones, after which he recalled them by activating the spiritual energy stored within. After dismantling every stone of the new residence, they wore a brilliant smile on their face. As he leaned against a tree, a satisfied sigh escaped his lips, and a glimpse of happiness appeared on his face.
"As far as we know, the Sun should now be inside this city." When they all sat down, Yan Xiaobao explained the reason for entering the city.
"Initially, I hesitated to enter this place because I feared our strength was insufficient, but looking at these cultivators, I think we are safe even though our foundation is quite unstable after the spiritual energy spring."
Pausing for a moment, Yan Xiaobao glanced around. "We need to find Sun, but we know nothing about her. We don’t know what she looks like, and we aren’t even sure if Sun is her real name, nor do we understand why they brought her here. All we can do now is investigate slowly so they won’t suspect we’re planning anything."
Yan Xiaobao seemed fleeting as he knew that although their rank was higher than most cultivators in this city, abusing such power to attack citizens was not a good idea because they weren’t cautious enough.
"Let’s see how much information we can gather from them at the banquet tonight. Then tomorrow, we’ll try to enter the market, to see if we can purchase some information. I believe everything we’ve brought from the ground can be sold here at an incredibly low cultivation rate."
