Upon seeing this, Xiao Yu realized that if he did not reveal a bit of his true capabilities given his age, the other party would still have some doubts even if they believed him. Although he didn’t care much about it, to know the most crucial things in this cultivation world, he needed to possess corresponding strength.
After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he lightly moved his right hand through the air, drawing intricate symbols that formed in his hands. The old man was clearly taken aback by Xiao Yu’s movements. Although there were no fluctuations in heaven and earth energy, it gave him a suffocating aura.
‘Drawing Symbols in Void Space!’ As he watched Xiao Yu's actions and felt the oppressive sensation from what Xiao Yu drew with his right hand, this late-stage Nurturing Qi Realm old man secretly exclaimed to himself.
Although he couldn’t sense any fluctuations in energy, he could feel the power of the talisman that Xiao Yu was drawing. Thus, he instantly understood Xiao Yu's intention and realized his cultivation level. He knew how to draw symbols in void space too, but it wouldn't be as effortless and elegant as what Xiao Yu did.
Only then did the trace of doubt disappear from his eyes, replaced by solemnity. A late-stage Nurturing Qi Realm practitioner at such a young age who was even stronger than him and practiced dual cultivation—how could he feel at ease if he wasn’t a saint Even saints couldn't remain so calm!
"Daoist Brother Xiao, please rest first. I'll go find my elder brother to come down the mountain for a gathering. There aren’t many Daoists in late-stage now! Moreover, you’re still young and have an infinite future!"
Old man Wang Tao, after putting away his doubts, bowed slightly toward Xiao Yu.
Now that he was sure about Xiao Yu’s cultivation level, he had to go tell his elder brother. After all, if Xiao Yu's cultivation level were lower than his, he could make a decision on his own, but now that it was the other way around, he didn’t dare say anything to Xiao Yu.
After leaving Xiao Yu’s villa, he quickly went back to his own villa, eager to tell his elder brother. He also felt somewhat fortunate that their Wang Family had hosted this gathering because the host naturally held a geographical advantage.
In these top-tier circles, although there weren’t many people, small cliques were forming with each having its own connections and networks.
Now that there was Xiao Yu, who practiced dual cultivation in late-stage Nurturing Qi Realm and was also young with a potential for further advancement—cultivating good relations with him would bring endless benefits to their Wang Family.
After Wang Tao left, Xiao Yu returned to his room. At this time, the sky had already begun to brighten. He didn't continue meditating; although he hadn't slept much last night, his yin spirit had recovered. His spirits were now very high, and thus he felt almost no discomfort.
Xiao Yu took out his phone and dialed a number. Zhang Dahuai and the others must have already woken up by now. He originally intended to inform these old men about this matter, but after some thought, he decided to notify Zhang Dahuai instead.
This was an opportunity to take credit for something without effort. Although it's true that Zhang Dahuai's path would註定不一般,而且又有李老在,但是他也需要過硬的功勞,確立他的地位,畢竟他們還年輕還有很長的路要走。註定 be extraordinary, and with Lao Li around, he still needed solid achievements to establish his status. After all, they were still young and had a long way to go.
Unlike Lao Li and the others who established their positions during wartime, Zhang Dahuai and the rest could smoothly inherit them, but without solid achievements, even if they did succeed in inheriting, would anyone acknowledge them
A short while later, Xiao Yu hung up the phone. He had just called Zhang Dahuai to inform him.
Zhang Dahuai was currently still in Beijing. Having already recovered, he planned to head to Shendong within a couple of days. However, when he got up and started exercising, he received Xiao Yu's call.
Xiao Yu briefly introduced the situation over the phone. In essence, while at Chuanzhong, Xiao Yu had obtained a map that appeared to be related to a secret base in the land of the倭國 (Wōguó - likely referring to Japan).
After hanging up, Zhang Dahuai informed Lao Li about this matter.
Hearing what Zhang Dahuai had to say, Lao Li fell into deep thought. A short while later, he lifted his head and said with a chuckle, "Well then, take some people with you and go over there! Seek assistance from the local military when you get there!"
Upon hearing Lao Li's words, Zhang Dahuai responded and left. After Zhang Dahuai had gone, Lao Li lowered his head in deep thought for a moment before a hint of a smile appeared on his lips. Although he didn't know where Xiao Yu got the map from, he was almost certain that there wasn’t much danger in Chuanzhong.
After all, Xiao Yu knew Zhang Dahuai’s condition well—if there were any dangers involved, Xiao Yu wouldn’t have sent him. Xiao Yu's character, while not fully understood by Lao Li, bore resemblance to his father’s—a man who prioritizes righteousness above all else and would never harm his brothers.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yu walked out of the villa and began strolling around in the courtyard of the resort village. The morning air was incredibly fresh here, and it was also a time when the vitality of nature was at its peak, so by the time Xiao Yu came out, he found numerous elderly individuals either leisurely wandering about or sitting cross-legged meditating somewhere.
The morning was mainly spent with the elderly gathering and middle-aged individuals discussing in groups, while Xiao Yu and his peers were idle.
In the afternoon, Xiao Yu headed towards the banquet hall where they had eaten yesterday.
"Xiao Yu, here~!" As soon as Xiao Yu stepped into the banquet hall, a voice came from a corner.
Hearing this voice, Xiao Yu looked in that direction. Liu Zongyuan was waving at him; upon seeing Liu Zongyuan, he walked towards that corner since he only knew them well here.
"Xiao Yu, sit down quickly!" The same table was occupied by Liu Zongyuan and Wang Haiyang as before, and when they saw Xiao Yu approaching, they all called out to him.
Although they looked down on Xiao Yu's performance the previous night, after returning home last night, their elders had told them that Xiao Yu’s cultivation might have reached the middle stage and also that he was a medical practitioner, making them respect him greatly.
"Master Xiao, why not sit at that table" Just as Xiao Yu was about to take his seat, an elderly man in his sixties walked over to say this to him.
“Heh heh, Master Hu, please enjoy your meal here. I’ll just stay where I am; it’s fine for me.” Upon hearing these words, Xiao Yu stood up and bowed slightly with clasped fists.
Xiao Yu remembered this person from the previous night when they had met him—he was Wang Jie's master at their table. Xiao Yu was someone worth befriending, although neither side could see through each other’s cultivation levels. They didn't believe that Xiao Yu's cultivation surpassed theirs but acknowledged his secret methods and medical skills, putting him on par with them in terms of status despite a possible lower cultivation level.
As for Xiao Yu's refusal, it was completely disregarded by the elder who called out to him merely as a sign of politeness. Even if Xiao Yu refused, sitting at his disciple’s table meant no hard feelings from the elder.
"Master Xiao, why sit here Go over there!" Just as Xiao Yu sat down, another elderly voice came closer and closer.
This familiar voice belonged to the late-stage Qi Condensation Realm cultivator Wang Tao who had sought out Xiao Yu the previous night. Hearing this, Xiao Yu turned around to look.
At this moment, Wang Tao had just entered through the main gate and was walking towards him. The old man looked half-asleep even when eating yesterday. Although his expression was calm, he couldn't hide the arrogance that came from deep within.
However, at this time, the old man was smiling as he spoke to a young person, leaving everyone in the banquet hall bewildered and looking questioningly at Xiao Yu who had just stood up.
"Haha, Daoist Brother Wang! Never mind, I'll stay here then! I can eat here!" After hearing the elder's words, Xiao Yu helplessly chuckled and said.
He knew that he could no longer remain low-key. From the looks in people’s eyes, it was obvious that although Master of Wang Jie didn't cause a stir, Wang Tao as an existence at the later stage of Condensation Realm had every move watched closely by everyone.
The faces of Wang Haichuan and the elders inside changed instantly after hearing Xiao Yu's words. After all, how could a young man like Xiao Yu compare to someone in the later stage of Condensation Realm The gap between them was huge. When Xiao Yu spoke those words, some people were indignant while others shook their heads involuntarily or looked at him with a smug expression because his refusal was essentially disrespecting an elder in the later stage of Condensation Realm and by extension, Wang Family's authority. Thus, everyone was waiting for something amusing to happen to Xiao Yu.
Li Shiqing also stood up, intending to come over here. He knew how powerful someone at the later stage of Condensation Realm was, practically a patriarch in the world of Qimen Dao cultivation. Who would dare defy them Hence, after hearing Xiao Yu's refusal, Li Shiqing quickly got up and thought that even if he didn't know Xiao Yu’s background, Xiao Yu had been brought here by him so he couldn’t just ignore what was happening.
"Haha, Haichuan, you guys can go eat over there! I'll stay to keep company with Daoist Brother Xiao. Does Daoist Brother Xiao mind" Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, the elder didn't even glance at those people and instead gave a hearty laugh before turning to Wang Haichuan, saying this. Then he turned back to Xiao Yu.
The moment the elder spoke, not only did Wang Haichuan get stunned but also everyone waiting for some entertainment was left dumbfounded, with Li Zongyuan’s group even standing there with their mouths open in shock.
Li Shiqing and Jiao Yufeng who had just stood up and were about to walk over here froze instantly. However, they quickly understood that the elder must have known Xiao Yu's cultivation level which was why he acted this way.
The two of them relaxed their minds at this moment, with Li Shiqing even returning to his own seat.
