"What are you doing? Can't you see I am entertaining distinguished guests? Have you no sense of propriety?"
Seeing Zhao Fei burst in rashly, Zhao Haoxuan frowned.
This Zhao Fei was from the same clan as him.
Back then, it was he who exercised his authority to make Zhao Fei a True Disciple of the Four Symbols Heavenly Sect.
He could also be considered his follower.
"My apologies..."
Zhao Fei's gaze fell upon Princess Huo Linger and Jun Xiaoyao, and his voice faltered.
"I have let you both see something ridiculous," Zhao Haoxuan said with a calm smile.
"It is no matter."
Jun Xiaoyao picked up his teacup and took a light sip.
Only then did Zhao Haoxuan look at Zhao Fei.
"What is it?"
"Reporting to the Young Sect Master, it concerns that Taiyuan Stone Workshop."
"Your subordinate just wanted to buy a few raw stones, but who would have thought..."
Zhao Fei briefly recounted the incident.
Naturally, he added some embellishments.
"Hmph, I didn't expect that young man to be unafraid of even the Four Symbols Heavenly Sect's reputation."
Zhao Fei's face was filled with indignation.
"I thought it was something important. To disturb me for such a trivial matter—what use are you?" Zhao Haoxuan snorted coldly.
Zhao Fei shrank back.
Beside them, upon hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of Jun Xiaoyao's lips.
He had guessed correctly.
That young man should be Lu Yuan.
He had followed the Karma to this place.
Jun Xiaoyao thought for a moment, then spoke to Zhao Haoxuan: "I am somewhat curious about this so-called Taiyuan Holy Sect. Might Young Sect Master Zhao enlighten me?"
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao take the initiative to speak, Zhao Haoxuan felt a faint sense of being flattered.
In truth, in his view, Jun Xiaoyao's status was even more noble than Princess Huo Linger's.
Because he could see that Princess Huo Linger listened to Jun Xiaoyao.
Therefore, Zhao Haoxuan did not dare to be the slightest bit negligent regarding Jun Xiaoyao's question.
He told Jun Xiaoyao everything he knew.
After listening, Jun Xiaoyao was not the least bit surprised.
The Taiyuan Holy Sect, the mysteriously vanished Great Emperor Taiyuan, and Lu Yuan.
This Karma could not be simpler.
That Lu Yuan's past life must be Great Emperor Taiyuan.
However, this trope was so simple that even Jun Xiaoyao was surprised.
He had previously pondered whether Lu Yuan was related to the Successor of the Heavenly Emperor.
But now it seemed there was no major connection.
Although Great Emperor Taiyuan's strength was also very great, it was still in a completely different league from the World-Creating Heavenly Emperor.
The two could not be mentioned in the same breath.
"However..."
Jun Xiaoyao always felt that things did not seem that simple.
But regardless, he still had to probe the reality of the situation.
Thinking of this, Jun Xiaoyao smiled calmly and said: "It is normal for someone under your command to want to save face after being wronged. Why don't we go and take a look?"
"Oh?"
Zhao Haoxuan was also surprised; he had not expected Jun Xiaoyao to be interested in such a trivial matter.
But since Jun Xiaoyao had said so, he naturally would not object.
Soon, their group headed toward the Taiyuan Stone Workshop.
Meanwhile, at the Taiyuan Stone Workshop.
Lu Yuan had finished listening to the accounts Lan Qian told him regarding the Taiyuan Holy Sect.
"It seems my past life was indeed Great Emperor Taiyuan," Lu Yuan thought to himself.
According to Lan Qian's description.
That Great Emperor Taiyuan possessed a Quasi-Immortal Artifact of peerless power, the Taiyuan Pen.
It perfectly matched the pen that had appeared in his memories earlier.
As for that vast mansion, it should be the hidden legacy left behind by Great Emperor Taiyuan in his past life.
Lu Yuan pieced together the fragments of memory in his mind.
A location emerged.
The Forbidden Ground of Haigu!
"That mansion should be in the depths of the Forbidden Ground of Haigu, hidden and sealed by my past life using special means."
"Only I can find that location."
Lu Yuan had a realization.
As long as he obtained the Taiyuan Pen and the legacy of the mansion left by his past life.
He could use these resources to transform his own strength.
The humiliation of being suppressed by Jun Xiaoyao and the shame of being expelled by the Feng Clan could all be avenged.
"Young Master, are you really not planning to leave?"
Lan Qian was still worried.
"It is fine. Even that Young Sect Master of the Four Symbols Heavenly Sect, I do not fear," Lu Yuan said calmly.
In any case, he would soon head to the Forbidden Ground of Haigu to find the legacy left by his past life, Great Emperor Taiyuan, and then go into seclusion.
By then, no one would be able to find him.
As for Lan Qian and Mother Xihua.
Lu Yuan also planned to find a suitable time to reveal the truth to them later.
He could not trust them yet.
Meanwhile, Mother Xihua looked at Lu Yuan, a flash of contemplation crossing her cloudy, aged eyes.
Just then.
"Is that brat still there? Get out here!"
This was precisely Zhao Fei's voice from before.
"They are here."
A pale shade crossed Lan Qian's delicate cheeks.
"Hmph."
Lu Yuan snorted coldly.
In his past life, he was, after all, an existence that shook the Shanhai Star Realm and made even sub-ultimate forces wary.
"Let's go take a look."
Lu Yuan rose, and together with Lan Qian and Mother Xihua, walked out of the Taiyuan Stone Workshop.
However, when Lu Yuan took one look, he was stunned.
He was not surprised that Zhao Fei and the Young Sect Master of the Four Symbols Heavenly Sect, Zhao Haoxuan, had come.
But upon seeing Princess Huo Linger and Jun Xiaoyao, Lu Yuan's expression faltered.
Why are they here?
A look of surprise also appeared on Lan Qian's cheeks.
She knew that Zhao Fei might bring the Young Sect Master Zhao Haoxuan to save face.
However, at this moment, Zhao Haoxuan was actually standing behind that pair of man and woman, like a servant.
And that pair of man and woman looked like a perfect match.
Especially that man, he was a peerless, transcendent figure the likes of which Lan Qian had never seen in her life.
"Why are you here?"
Lu Yuan's originally calm expression could no longer remain composed.
The embarrassment of being scorched by Jun Xiaoyao's Chaos True Fire seemed to still be before his eyes.
"What, as a Princess of the Fire Clan, I can be wherever I want. Is that any of your business?" Princess Huo Linger pouted.
"What, the Fire Clan?"
Hearing this, the eyes of both Lan Qian and Mother Xihua were shocked.
The Fire Clan was a sub-ultimate force in the Shanhai Star Realm, an existence that no one dared to provoke.
No wonder Zhao Haoxuan was by their side like a servant.
"Lu Yuan, you were previously a live-in son-in-law for the Feng Clan and were kicked out. I didn't expect to run into you now."
Jun Xiaoyao glanced at Lu Yuan indifferently.
In the most placid tone, he tore open Lu Yuan's scars.
"You..."
Lu Yuan frowned.
Beside them, Mother Xihua's confusion deepened.
She had originally thought, could Lu Yuan have some connection to Great Emperor Taiyuan?
Because the methods Lu Yuan used when teaching Zhao Fei a lesson earlier made her feel somewhat familiar.
But with Jun Xiaoyao saying this, it made Mother Xihua suspicious again.
How could the dignified Great Emperor Taiyuan be a live-in son-in-law and be humiliatingly kicked out?
This did not fit the Heart-Nature of Great Emperor Taiyuan; even a Reincarnation should not be so pathetic.
It also did not fit the magnificent image of Great Emperor Taiyuan in her mind.
"Could I have misunderstood?" Mother Xihua thought to herself.
"What do you want?" Lu Yuan said coldly.
"Hmph, do you know to be afraid now?"
A cold sneer curled the corner of Zhao Fei's lips.
"This... this Young Master, we had no intention of provoking anyone, it is just that the Four Symbols Heavenly Sect is too overbearing..."
Lan Qian, not knowing where she found the courage, stepped forward and said to Jun Xiaoyao.
She could perceive that even that noble Princess of the Fire Clan was extremely compliant toward this young man who looked like an immortal.
In other words, as long as she could persuade Jun Xiaoyao, they could be safe today.
