9078. Chapter 9078 Huangquan 96
Leng Xuan was about to speak, but at this moment, he heard a cough coming from the other side of the house, "Is there anyone else here?"
"I said, this is none of your business." Xiao Yan stepped forward a few steps, staring coldly, and seemed to be ready to attack at any time.
"Yan'er, let him come over." The old voice came, Xiao Yan's face was startled, and she hurriedly said: "Master, he..."
"Master?" Leng Xuan immediately walked in the direction of the old man after hearing these two words. Soon, an old man appeared in his sight. The old man was very ordinary, and would not attract attention if thrown into the crowd. However, Leng Xuan noticed that the other party was actually a soul body, without a physical body, and even red soil was not used. Leng Xuan walked forward, bowed his hands, and greeted: "Senior."
"Your name is Leng Xuan?" The old man smiled faintly and was amiable. "I just heard Yan'er mention you. Since my master and I have lived here, no guests have come. You are the first one. Please come in!" Seeing that the old man was about to invite Leng Xuan into the house, Xiao Yan hurriedly said: "Master, his identity is unknown. We'd better be careful. Maybe he was sent by that person..."
Before she finished speaking, the old man made a gesture to stop her from talking, "Don't worry, he is not. I, your master, have lived for so many years. If I don't even have the ability to judge people, then my life would be in vain. Little friend Leng, Yan'er has never left the mountain. If there is anything rude, please bear with me."
Leng Xuan smiled slightly and said: "Senior, what are you talking about? I am sorry for disturbing you. I should be the one who is rude."
After entering the house, Leng Xuan glanced around and saw that the furnishings in the house were very simple and plain. There was not even a chair, only a bed. When the three of them sat down on the ground, Leng Xuan asked, "Senior, I'm wondering what your name is."
"Tong Yan," the old man said, "How did you find this place?"
At that moment, Leng Xuan told the two about the previous fight with someone. "I see." Tong Yan smiled, "What a coincidence."
"Senior." Leng Xuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you the city lord of Lingcheng?" This doubt has been bothering him. It's a rare opportunity to face the other party directly, so he naturally wants to ask clearly. "The city lord of Lingcheng?" A gleam of light flashed in Tong Yan's turbid eyes, but soon, the gleam of light disappeared without a trace, leaving only calmness, "That was a long time ago. I'm not the city lord of Lingcheng now, just an ordinary person. I guess you have noticed that my current cultivation is almost zero, and I can only barely maintain this soul."
"Sure enough!" Leng Xuan said inwardly, the old man in front of him was indeed the mysterious city lord of Lingcheng back then. "Why?" he asked puzzledly, "Although thousands of years have passed, others still regard you as the Lord of Lingcheng." Tong Yan smiled calmly, "Are you talking about those people in Lingcheng? They are just kept in the dark and don't know the truth." After a pause, he asked, "Didn't the three of them tell those people the truth?"
"Three?" Leng Xuan was startled, then reacted and said, "Are you talking about Feng Qingliu, Leng Yuehan, and Lin Hao?"
"Yes." Tong Yan nodded, "The three of them were my trusted subordinates back then. They knew very well that I left. I told them the reason."
