Chen Yu, who did not know the background of the opponent, stopped for the moment.
With a puzzled look in his eyes, he looked at the elder that was rushing towards him.
The old man seemed to be walking slowly, but in reality, everyone only saw a blur before their eyes. In the next moment, the old man with a cane in his hand stood in front of Chen Yu.
Let alone the others, even Chen Yu did not understand why the old man had arrived in front of him so quickly.
This speed was as though it passed through space.
Resisting the shock in his heart, Chen Yu subconsciously let go of the hand that was holding Zhai Hongwen's neck, and cupped his hands in greeting towards the old man.
"May I know how to address you, senior?!"
After walking through the gates of hell, Zhai Hongwen finally broke free from Chen Yu's grasp, panting heavily.
If it weren't for the sudden appearance of this old man, Zhai Hongwen would've turned into an ice-cold corpse by now.
"Name?!"
Both of the old man's hands rested on his cane as he rolled his eyes. It seemed as if he was lost in memories of the past.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, respectfully maintained the gesture of cupping his hands while holding his luggage.
The old man just stood there for a long time, reminiscing about the past.
After an unknown period of time, his lips quivered and he spat out a word.
"I forgot …"
Other than Chen Yu, everyone present rolled their eyes.
The big fellow sat there in a daze for a long time, but in the end, it couldn't find out what the old man's name was.
However, the old man quickly said:
"As for how I should call you, I am the manager of this Frigid Pavilion. If you don't mind, little girl, you can just call me Old Man Han."
"Greetings, Elder Han."
Without moving, Chen Yu, who had been maintaining his cupped fist posture, introduced himself politely after hearing the elder address himself as Elder Han.
"Eh?!"
When the old man heard about the Royal Sky Sect from Chen Yu's words, he looked at Chen Yu as if he had discovered something new.
His cloudy eyes instantly became clear for a moment, and he tried hard to think of a name in his mind.
However, the old man could even forget his own name, so it was obvious that he could not remember the other person's name. In the end, he helplessly shook his head and gave up.
"I wonder what did this person do to make this little child want to kill him so completely?!"
The old man who came out to argue didn't dawdle over this matter. Instead, he took the initiative to ask Chen Yu for the reason why he wanted to kill Zhai Hongwen.
Without waiting for Chen Yu to explain to the old man, Ke Yao Cen, who had been sitting in his seat the entire time, took the initiative to stand up. He turned around, bowed to the old man, and said gently.
"My daughter Ke Yao Cen greets Elder Han. This matter was caused by my daughter in the end. This senior brother of the Royal Sky Sect also acted to obstruct her, otherwise, my daughter's fate tonight …" "No idea …"
From the cold and beautiful woman's words, the old man who had experienced countless years of baptism was able to deduce a general idea in an instant.
He first looked at Ke Yao Cen, then looked at Chen Yu who was standing shoulder to shoulder.
Taking the chance when the beautiful lady was not paying attention, she gave Chen Yu a flirtatious look that only men would understand.
Chen Yu, who thought he was hallucinating, shook his head and looked at the old man.
He noticed that the old man still had a meaningful smile on his face.
This inevitably caused Chen Yu to be a little astonished.
After all, the flirtatious gaze the old man shot at him could not be linked to the image of the old man in front of everyone.
As if he had seen wrongly, Chen Yu retracted both his hands and slowly put them beside him as he looked at the old man with a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
The old man's thumb moved back and forth on his walking stick, he muttered to himself for a moment, then raised his head and asked Chen Yu who was slightly taller than him:
"Must we kill?"
Chen Yu, who was determined to kill Zhai Hongwen, suddenly changed his mind. He bowed and cupped his fists to the old man again.
"Listen to Old Han's orders!"
After asking Chen Yu about his intentions, the elder turned his gaze to the cold and beautiful lady beside him.
Noticing the gaze of the old man, the cold and beautiful woman quickly said:
"As Elder Han wishes."
The two of them resonated, as if they were singing together.
The old man, who was holding onto the cane with both hands, nodded.
Ye Zichen looked at Zhai Hongwen, who was pretending to be dead, then shook his head, then directly poked Zhai Hongwen's lower rib cage with the cane in his hand.
"Scram, in the future, you are not allowed to take even half a step closer to the Frigid Pavilion."
Upon hearing the old man's words, Zhai Hongwen, who had been standing there motionlessly, jumped up from the ground.
He didn't even bother to thank the old man before disappearing from the inn.
Those who witnessed the change all stared blankly at the spot where Zhai Hongwen had disappeared.
Earlier, the one who was arrogant and despotic was you, and later on begged for mercy as if he didn't care about his own life.
The one who is still on the ground dying is you, and in a blink of an eye, it's still you who's running away!
Which one was the real Zhai Hongwen?
Just as everyone was deeply impressed by Zhai Hongwen's acting skills, Chen Yu suddenly heard the old man's voice sound out in his mind.
"Ai, this person will not be able to see these things as soon as he reaches an age. Don't blame this old man for taking the initiative to make a decision. However, you don't have to worry about a little kid. Previously, I also used some methods to make sure that the brat that ran away will have his cultivation level lower and lower until he becomes an ordinary person. To him, this was probably worse than killing him. it will definitely not pose the slightest threat to you in the future. "
Hearing the old man's words, Chen Yu suddenly raised his head.
Although he was not sure if the old man's so-called method was real, just listening to the old man's introduction caused Chen Yu to shudder, such a ruthless method was many times more ruthless than his own little thoughts.
It would be better for him to break Zhai Hongwen's spine than turn him into an ordinary person.
At this time, Chen Yu started to feel sympathy for Zhai Hongwen, and secretly glanced at the cold and beautiful woman beside him.
He realized that the old man did not seem to have heard what he had just told him.1
It was likely that the old man had used some sort of sound transmission method to only tell him.
Therefore, Chen Yu nodded towards the old man without leaving a trace.
After taking care of everything, the old man did not seem to want to stay any longer either. He waved his hand at Chen Yu and turned to leave.
Everyone present heard the old man's words before he left.
"The preliminary battle will begin three days from now. At that time, there will be someone to lead you all there."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, his figure had already disappeared from the inn.
Such a formless and untraceable action caused everyone to be suspicious of whether it was an illusion or not.
It was only when they saw the bloodstain that Di Hongwen had left not far away from Chen Yu's feet that they finally realised what had happened.
The old man's words before he left were most likely true.
Everyone looked up in anticipation as the preliminaries of the Sacred Assembly were finally about to begin.
