"Take your time, Junior Brother. I'll be going on ahead."
Feng Yuan said no more. With that, he urged his chariot forward, streaking away like a bolt of lightning.
Yuan Xiao was not angered. His gaze shifted, falling upon his attendants, Liu Jing and Shao Guansu.
Both were elites among the Zhen Peak disciples and had always held his deep trust.
Yuan Xiao asked with a faint smile,
"It seems you two have both had dealings with this Daoist?"
Liu Jing's eyes flickered as he answered softly,
"To answer the True Inheritance, this disciple merely visited Kan Peak to request tutelage, but I returned unsuccessful. The one who truly has a history with the Daoist is Senior Brother Shao."
Shao Guansu cursed Liu Jing inwardly. 'This bastard sure knows how to exploit an opening, using every chance to throw me under the bus.'
He hurriedly took a step forward and bowed.
