Qin Li looked up, confused, at Fang Haonan. With his strength, he could have overheard their conversation, but he had refrained out of courtesy. However, seeing Fang Haonan's excitement, his curiosity was piqued. "Something I'd be interested in? If you don't mind, Fang, do tell!"
"Heh, of course it's convenient! Nothing inconvenient about it. Word is that the water level at Phoenix Lake has suddenly dropped by more than half for some reason, revealing a massive ancient ruin. And get this—it even alarmed His Majesty the Emperor! He's dispatched seventeen Celestial Level Martial Artists, fifty Earth Level Martial Artists, and two hundred High-Tier Profound Level cultivators. They're on their way here right now. I never expected that old emperor to have such a keen nose for news. If it weren't for some inside information from the Imperial Capital, we locals would still be in the dark. Man, what a failure on our part!"
