Chapter Sixty: The Most Crucial Point

  More than twenty guards' voices in unison, passed through the magnificent glass door and reached every diner's ears in the great hall.

  "Is that Young Master Xia Yan? Could it be Xia Yan of the Xia family?" Everyone stared at the entrance of Jufu Building in shock.

  Most people have already guessed the true identity of the boy in simple clothes.

  Wang Yu Yan's heart was violently stirred, the Xia family, actually because she invited Xia Yan to eat a meal at Jufu Building, caused such a stir? It can be seen that if Xia Yan encounters an accident at Jufu Building, the Xia family will probably go to war with the Wang family without considering the consequences. Led by Xia Lai, the great elder of the Xia family, with so many elite guards, this kind of formation has never been seen in decades!

  Her face was slightly pale, but Wang Yuyan still managed to squeeze out a smile and greeted Xia Lei. Although Xia Lei's gaze was extremely cold and unfriendly, making her feel chilly and uncomfortable all over, Wang Yuyan couldn't just turn around and leave because of that.

  Standing beside them, Zhang Yun and Liu De still had their eyes wide open. At this moment, the thoughts in the minds of the two were almost the same: Xia Yan's status in the Xia family was indeed extraordinary; if not, how could Xia Lai bring his guards personally? Looking at the situation, it was clear that Xia Lai came here because of Xia Yan, and not to eat at Jufu Building.

  Xia Yan glanced at Wang Yu Yan with the corner of his eye, and secretly sighed in his heart. He didn't expect things to turn out this way either. Originally, it was just a normal meal, but now it had evolved into this situation. Probably in the next few days, this matter would spread throughout Yushui City like the battle between Beiqu Fangshi and Xu Huang. At that time, he might really need to wear a mask every time he went out.

  "Great elder, Miss Wang Yu Yan invited me to have dinner together at Jifu Building. With the young lady of the Wang family present, who would dare make things difficult for me? Hehe!" Xia Yan could only smile and say this at this time.

  Xia Lei glanced at Wang Yu Yan, let out a cold hum from his nose and said: "Mm, I also believe that with the young lady of the Wang family around, everything will be fine. However, Xia Yan, your safety is also top priority. In the future, when going out, it's still best to bring some guards along."

  Xia Yan hastily said: "Yes, Great Elder is right, I will pay attention next time."

  "Xia Lai, have you and everyone else eaten yet? If not, why don't we all go to Ju Fu Lou for another round?" Wang Yu Yan smiled awkwardly and took a step back.

  "No need, we've all had lunch already. Thank you for the kind intention of Miss Wang and her family. Since Xia Yan has finished eating, let's head back together." Xia Lei waved his hand and said with a glance at Wang Yu Yan.

  Xia Yan turned around and smiled apologetically at Wang Yu Yan.

  The Xia family members gradually left the Jifu Building, while Wang Yuyan and others behind the Liuli Gate did not retreat for a long time. Everyone's eyes flickered, and it was unknown what they were thinking in their hearts.

  "Who is this?"

  Xia Lei saw Li Yuan Chun beside Xia Yan and his eyes narrowed, he felt that Li Yuan Chun's aura was somewhat unusual, possibly not an ordinary cultivator.

  "This is Li Yuan Chun, he's from Purple Leaf City."

  "Haha, I've seen a great elder!" Li Yuanchun had just heard the conversation between these people and naturally knew Xia Lei's position in the Xia family.

  "Please, no need for such politeness," said Xia Lao Lao, returning the courtesy. "I don't know what brings Brother Li to Yushui City, but is there anything that my Xia family can help with?"

  Li Yuanchun shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, I also had a chance encounter with Xia Yan, my little brother, and we had dinner together at Jufu Building. Now it's time to say goodbye."

  Xia Yan's eyes looked at Li Yuan Chun, "Older brother, why don't you come with me to the Xia family for a short stay? That way, I can also ask older brother for guidance on some martial arts techniques that I don't understand."

  Li Yuanchun laughed and waved his hand, saying: "Younger brother, the future is long, one day you will go to Purple Leaf City, I will definitely spar with you on this martial skill."

  Looking at the sky, Li Yuanchun clasped his fists and said: "Alright, young brother, it's getting late, I should leave too. If you go to Purple Leaf City in the future, be sure to come to the Liu residence to find me. When you arrive at the Liu residence, just say you're looking for me, Li Yuanchun."

  Xia Yan's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he secretly remembered the Li family. Then, from a small bag, he took out a handful of gold coins and handed them to Li Yuan Chun: "Older brother, it will take several days to get to Purple Leaf City from Jade Water City. Take this money with you, just in case."

  Li Yuanchun's mouth twitched, and he looked at the gold coin handed over by Xia Yan. Finally, he stretched out his finger, pinched a gold coin and said: "This gold coin, I'll take it. Brother Xia Yan, Grand Elder, Li Yuanchun is leaving now, see you next time!"

  Li Yuan Chun was indeed a straightforward and decisive person. After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Xia Yan to say anything else and turned around to leave in big strides. Looking at Li Yuan Chun's back, Xia Yan's face showed confusion followed by a strange smile.

  The great elder Xia Lei also looked at Li Yuan Chun leaving, and sighed in his mouth: "If I'm not mistaken, Li Yuan Chun's strength is far beyond mine!"

  When Xia Lei finished speaking, Xia Yan's body suddenly shook violently and he looked at Xia Lei with some surprise.

  Xia Lei said: "I'm not sure, but I have a 70% confidence that this Li Yuanchun is likely to be a spiritual master."

  Xia Lei's experience in observing people is naturally much richer than Xia Yan's. Since Xia Yan saw Li Yuan Chun on the street, he felt that this person was extraordinary, but he didn't expect that Li Yuan Chun could be a spiritual master.

  It's worth noting that the number of Dragon Continent Spirit Masters is extremely scarce. In Yushui City, among the three major families, only three family heads are Spirit Masters. Of course, perhaps in some corners, there may be some hidden Spirit Masters, but the scarcity of Spirit Masters can be imagined. And this Li Yuanchun might actually be a Spirit Master!

  The Spirit Master is a congenital strongman. A Spirit Master who has just entered the congenital stage, compared to a postnatal peak strongman, may seem to be only one line apart, but the gap in their strength is enormous. It can be said that even ten postnatal peak strongmen working together may not be a match for a single Spirit Master who has just entered the congenital stage.

  It is precisely because of this that among the three major families in Yushui City, if any family can produce one more spiritual master, the overall strength of the family will instantly surpass the other two families.

  ………

  "Slap!"

  The eldest slapped a palm on the face of the second, instantly appearing five clear and bright red finger prints on the face of the second. The pointed mouthed monkey cheeked second let out a miserable cry covering his face, looking at the eldest with a tangled expression.

  "Trash, is this what you call a fat sheep? I'm furious!" The boss angrily shouted while jumping up and down.

  The second elder looked very wronged, glanced at the eldest and pouted: "I didn't expect it either, I didn't know either, how could I have thought that things would be like this...... Waaahhh......"

  "Rubbish! Rubbish!"

  "Big brother, don't blame second brother. When that young master first came out, I also thought he was easy to rob. But unexpectedly, the situation changed in an instant, and so many guards appeared, each one as fierce as a tiger." Old Three spoke up for Old Two.

  Just now, the three brothers saw Xia Yan walking out of Ju Fu Building, their eyes fixed on Xia Yan's plump body, but they didn't expect that the situation would change suddenly. In the blink of an eye, Xia Yan changed from a plump sheep about to be caught to a young master escorted by more than 20 powerful guards! The change was so fast that it left the three brothers stunned and confused.

  Until Xia Yan and the others left, the three brothers slowly came back to their senses from their shock. The eldest fiercely spat out a mouthful of saliva and slapped the second brother's face with it. If people like them were to go rob someone, wouldn't they be asking for death?
