310 Acquaintance, An Interesting Person

This person was dressed in a white marten coat, and his sleeves were surrounded by auspicious clouds. As he walked, they glowed as if the clouds were flowing. It was actually flowing cloud brocade. It was said that clothes made of this material were impervious to fire, water, and even knives and guns. It could be said to be priceless.

Even his clothes were like this, not to mention other things. The jade ornaments on his waist were all top-grade magic weapons. This person seemed even nobler, but he had a foxtail grass in his mouth, and his every movement revealed a ruffian air that was different from his status.

Although he looked a little strange, when combined together, he gave off a wild and uninhibited feeling. He was an extremely interesting person.

“If you can be here, why can’t I be here?”

Zhao Huaifeng retracted his sword, obviously concerned about the person who had appeared. “This brat stole my prey. This matter is between him and me. You’d better stay out of it.”

“What if I want to interfere?”

“You!”

Zhao Huaifeng was so angry that his facial features shifted. His hand was still on the scabbard, but he didn’t move.

The man stretched lazily and said, “I wanted to take a nap and slack off, but I didn’t expect to see such a great show. I’ve already said just now that this fellow Daoist encountered the multicolored ferocious tiger by accident.”

“Originally, you were in the right, but now you’ve become unreasonable. You even disturbed my sleep. I see injustice so I’ll meddle in other people’s business.”

Zhao Huaifeng was left speechless. He obviously didn’t dare to attack that man, so he could only vent his anger on Ye Xuan. “I’ll remember you! You’re lucky this time to have the help of a noble. You won’t be so lucky next time!”

After he finished speaking, he looked at the man coldly and left unwillingly. The other people in his group didn’t dare to say anything when the man appeared. It was obvious that the man had a powerful background.

The group left without looking back.

“Brother Zhao, are we going to give up just like that? You’ve been searching for that multicolored ferocious tiger for a long time. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to find another one in a short time.”

Zhao Huaifeng glared at the person who spoke. “What else can we do if we don’t give up? You can’t beat Xiao Mingyan!”

The person who had said this earlier looked embarrassed and immediately stopped talking.

What kind of person was Xiao Mingyan? Even if all of them attacked him together, they wouldn’t be his match.

Zhao Huaifeng’s eyes were dark as he said, “It’s best if I don’t bump into that brat in Jade City, or he’ll have to bear the consequences. As for Xiao Mingyan…”

He snorted coldly. “He’s just relying on the supreme dragon bone. Without the dragon bone, what is he? He dared to interfere in my business!”

Although he said that, if Zhao Huaifeng really had to fight him, he probably wouldn’t have the guts to do so. All he could do was talk.

…

Ye Xuan didn’t really want this multicolored ferocious tiger. Zhao Huaifeng was too overbearing earlier. Everyone had their own temperament, not to mention Ye Xuan.

“Thank you for earlier.”

Even if the man didn’t do anything, Ye Xuan could still solve it, but he still appreciated the favor.

While Ye Xuan was sizing up the man, Xiao Mingyan was also sizing him up. Because he was in a hurry, Ye Xuan was practically eating and sleeping in the open, so he didn’t care about his appearance.

He was not in a sorry state, but compared to Xiao Mingyan, there was a huge difference. However, Xiao Mingyan was not a person who looked at appearances alone. From the corner of his eye, he saw the corpse of the multicolored ferocious tiger on the ground.

Xiao Mingyan said meaningfully, “The multicolored ferocious tiger was already heavily injured, but it was still a demonic beast that was at the peak of the earth rank. Killing it in one move isn’t something an ordinary person could do. Even if I didn’t do anything, you would’ve been able to solve the problem.”

“I was just lucky,” Ye Xuan replied humbly.

Xiao Mingyan saw through him but didn’t say anything. “It’s nothing. I just don’t like Zhao Huaifeng’s behavior. Besides, he did disturb my sleep.”

The two of them looked at each other and smiled.

“I’m Xiao Mingyan.”

“Ye Xuan.”

Xiao Mingyan seemed to have thought of something. “If you continue heading west, you’ll reach Jade City. If you want to enter the city, you have to be careful of Zhao Huaifeng. That guy will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. If he doesn’t dare to look for me, he’ll definitely look for you to pick a fight.”

It turned out that Zhao Huaifeng came from the Zhao family, one of the most influential families in Jade City. He had an extraordinary status, and he was headstrong and self-opinionated. He had always been insufferably arrogant, and he liked to hold grudges.

It was said that he needed the multicolored ferocious tiger’s genitals to make wine and had been searching for it for days. He finally found its trace and injured it, but he did not expect that someone would come out of nowhere.

He didn’t dare to make a move against Ye Xuan because of Xiao Mingyan’s presence, but if Ye Xuan were to enter Jade City, that might not be the case.

“Thank you for the heads up.”

Ye Xuan noticed that Xiao Mingyan was familiar with Zhao Huaifeng, and the two seemed to know each other. He thought that Xiao Mingyan should be from Jade City as well, so he said, “I am just wondering why you are out here alone, Daoist Xiao.”

Looking at Xiao Mingyan’s attire, he must have come from a powerful background. Otherwise, Zhao Huaifeng wouldn’t be so afraid of him. This made Ye Xuan a little curious about his identity.

“As for me, I’m used to being alone. I’ve always been like this.”

The tip of Xiao Mingyan’s nose twitched as if he had caught a whiff of something. He said, “It seems that you are hiding something good, Daoist Ye.”

Ye Xuan glanced out of the corner of his eye. The cork of the wine gourd on his waist was a little loose. Transparent liquid dripped down, and the intoxicating smell of wine wafted around. The wine must have been accidentally touched in the fight earlier.

“I brewed this myself.”

Seeing that Xiao Mingyan seemed to be extremely interested, Ye Xuan took down the wine gourd. “If you don’t mind, Brother Xiao, you can have a taste.”

Xiao Mingyan grabbed the gourd and took a big gulp. He felt a warm current flowing through his body. He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Good wine!”

Ye Xuan’s interest was piqued when he saw how much Xiao Mingyan appreciated the wine. “Don’t look down on this ordinary wine. In fact, it has a great history.”
