521 Opening a Shop in the Imperial City, Refining the Heart in the Mortal World
“Xiao Changfeng greets you.” Xiao Changfeng, who was in front of the carriage, paused and said in a low voice, “Greetings, Mr. Mu Ye.”
After pondering for a moment, he addressed Han Muye as Mister.
He had never heard of a martial grandmaster named Mu Ye.
But he knew that he definitely did not have Han Muye’s ability.
With a single statement, he conferred deity titles.
Heaven suppressing seal.
The battle at the Guan Estuary shook the Central Continent.
The most discussed topic in the Imperial City was who the person who made the deification was.
Not many martial grandmasters could do such a thing.
Perhaps those experts who were preparing to break through to the Sage Realm with extremely powerful physical bodies and divine souls could have such abilities.
Then, where did this martial grandmaster come from?
The Xiao family had the means to gather information.
At the very least, the news that Xiao Chu sent back was much more accurate than the news from other aristocratic families in the Imperial City.
Upon receiving Xiao Chu’s report before his return, Xiao Changfeng, as the eldest master of the Xiao family, began to investigate who Han Muye was when Xiao Lingshan was not around.
“Emissary Xiao, thank you for welcoming me.”
Han Muye sat in the carriage and cupped his hands, then looked at Xiao Changfeng and the people behind him.
“I came to the royal city to find my junior sister. Do you know where she is?”
As expected!
This person did not care about the Xiao family’s grand welcome at all. He only cared about his junior sister’s situation.
Such an attitude was that of a great cultivator.
The stronger they were, the less they cared about the opinions of outsiders. They simply followed their hearts.
Although Xiao Changfeng did not know Han Muye’s exact identity, he had already deduced that Han Muye would come to the Imperial City.
He came to the mortal world to refine his heart.
This Confucianist expert came from the Southern Wasteland.
Qian Yiming of the Southern Wasteland received him, and Xiao Yueli of the Xiao Family took him seriously.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yueli was too far away and he could not pass on the news in time.
However, Xiao Yueli probably did not know the true identity of such an expert.
Han Muye attacked at the Guan Estuary because Lu Yang had come personally to pay his respects.
According to the news, Lu Yang called Han Muye his granduncle.
Half-Sage Lu Yuzhou’s brother?
Of course, it was impossible for them to be biological brothers. Perhaps they had come to recognize each other as brothers.
Lu Yuzhou was in the Imperial City, but he was hiding in the academy. No one dared to ask him who Han Muye was.
If Lu Yuzhou was willing to say it, he would have said so long ago.
A Half-Sage who could suppress a county was also a top figure in the Imperial City. No one could suppress him except for Minister Wen.
No matter what, Xiao Changfeng had already deduced the general situation from the information he gathered.
This expert at the Guan Estuary was familiar with a Half-Sage like Lu Yuzhou. He was also a top figure in the Central Continent.
After Xiao Chu returned, Xiao Changfeng personally met him a few more times and even personally asked how Mu Wan, Shao Datian, and the others were settling down.
He knew what was going on.
Xiao Changfeng raised his hand and said in a low voice, “Mr. Mu Ye, Fairy Mu Wan rented a shop in the Jade Alchemy Mill and is preparing to open a pharmacy.”
At this point, he looked at Han Muye. “I’ll arrange for two juniors to lead the way for you.”
Xiao Changfeng would definitely not say anything about hosting a banquet.
Even if the Xiao family wanted to build a relationship with this person, they were not in a hurry.
As long as this person lived in the Imperial City, wouldn’t there be a chance?
Hearing Xiao Changfeng’s words, Han Muye shook his head and said, “I’ll find it myself.”
He had come to the Imperial City to open a pharmacy, and to experience the mortal world with Mu Wan and refine his heart. He couldn’t be bothered to interact too much with the Xiao family.
Otherwise, wouldn’t he have to interact with Lu Yuzhou and the Han Trading Company in the Imperial City as well?
The Han Trading Company had entered the Imperial City two years ago and opened up its business.
“Zuo Lin, do you know the Jade Alchemy Mill?” Han Muye looked at Zuo Lin, who was still in a daze.
Zuo Lin’s entire body stirred. “Yes, I do,” he said quickly.
He bent his body and jogged over. Then, with a chuckle, he bowed to Xiao Changfeng and the others. He climbed onto the carriage frame, cracked his whip, and drove away.
Watching the carriage leave, Xiao Changfeng’s expression was indifferent.
Behind him, Xiao Changchun, who was wearing red armor, whispered, “Big Brother, this person looks calm and doesn’t hide his age. Is he really that powerful?
“Such an expert just wants to open a pharmacy in the Imperial City?”
Xiao Changfeng turned his head and saw that not only Xiao Changchun, but also a few others, looked doubtful.
His expression darkened.
Looking at Xiao Changchun, Xiao Changfeng lowered his voice. “The Battle of the Guan Estuary concerned the safety of the eight counties in Dongnan. Was it a big deal?”
Xiao Changchun and the others nodded.
It was a big deal, of course.
If the Daoist sects had succeeded, the eight counties in Dongnan would be in chaos.
“Senior Lu Yuzhou was not worried at all about such a big matter. Not to mention he did not take action, even though it concerned his family’s Dao domain. Why?”
Xiao Changfeng looked at his mansion and asked.
Why?
Xiao Changchun narrowed his eyes and said softly, “He knew that someone else would make a move.”
Whether it was a coincidence or a plan, Han Muye was at the Guan Estuary.
Minister Wen and Lu Yuzhou both knew Han Muye’s combat strength, so they did not make a move at all.
Han Muye, who was visiting today, was an expert that important figures like Minister Wen and Lu Yuzhou knew.
In other words, the reason why Han Muye did not get off the carriage at the Xiao family today was because his own men’s standing was not high enough.
“Go to the military camp and ask the old master.” Xiao Changfeng shook his head and paced back and forth.
“Perhaps the old master will know some news about Mr. Mu Ye.
“Also, don’t contact Mr. Mu Ye if there’s nothing important. These powerhouses who play the mortal world get most annoyed when others ruin their mood.”
Xiao Changchun and the others nodded and quickly followed.
…
At this moment, the Imperial City had lit up.
Spiritual light flashed in the sky, illuminating the street lamps on both sides of the street.
