"Right now, I can't kill you. At least, I can't kill you while you still have that mysterious power in your body."1
Without waiting for Ye Xuan to reply, the old man continued, "Tsk tsk, you really surprised me. In half a year's time, I've been promoted to rank 3. Although there are also people like this in the world, but there aren't many. And in the future, this kind of people will definitely become something big, even standing at the peak."
So, for a person like you, I do not wish to offend you, but instead, I want to befriend you more. However, with the relationship between you and the Imperial City, I believe that you will not want to befriend me. Even if you do not want to befriend me, I also do not wish to befriend you.
The old man's intention was very simple. The first reason was because there was a mysterious power in Ye Xuan's body, so the old man couldn't kill him, so he wouldn't attack him. The second reason was because he was optimistic about Ye Xuan's future, and even more so, he didn't want to attack him.
Regardless of whether it was because of the first point or the second point, the final conclusion was that the old man really had no ill intentions towards Ye Xuan and told him not to be nervous.
It had to be said that the old man's words were very straightforward. However, it was also because of this that Ye Xuan's aura gradually faded away. However, he still looked at the old man warily. After all, the old man was still a dangerous existence in his eyes.
Seeing that Ye Xuan was still on alert, the old man didn't mind and shook his head: "To be honest, I'm feeling rather regretful right now."
"What are you regretting?" Hearing this, Ye Xuan paused for a while before he asked doubtfully.
"Back then when you were fighting against the Qingfeng Square, I also knew that it was only a small fight and it wasn't worth it for me to step in. At least, before I threaten the safety of the Imperial City, I still wouldn't do anything for such a small matter."
"Therefore, I am now regretting. I am regretful that I did not come forward to stop you in the first place. Or should I say, directly killed you …" I have to say, I made a mistake. I really made a mistake. "
The old man's words were as straightforward as ever. Even the thoughts in Ye Xuan's heart were very uneuphemistically. However, it was precisely because of this that Ye Xuan felt more at ease.
And what the old man said now was indeed the truest thought in his heart. He truly regretted it. No matter what he had done at that time, he would not have left behind such an endless potential for future troubles.
However, he could not kill him. At least, as he said just now, while the mysterious power in Ye Xuan's body still existed, he could not kill him.
The matter of Ye Xuan causing a ruckus in the Broken Sword Sect did not spread as far as anyone was concerned. However, Zhao Yan was personally present, so when he returned, the first thing he did was to report Ye Xuan's situation to him. Thus, he was very clear on the mysterious power that existed within Ye Xuan's body.
"Do you know who I am?" After sighing for a while, the old man suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Xuan. He saw Ye Xuan shook his head and continued: "Perhaps, you should have heard of my name before. I am Zhao Zhenlong!"
Zhao Zhenlong? Also surnamed Zhao? It seemed that not only was this old man the guardian of the imperial city, he also had a great relationship with the imperial family! Ye Xuan thought in his heart, but he still shook his head and said honestly, "I've never heard of it."
