"So that's how it is."
Gu Qingfeng withdrew his hand, showing no intention of continuing the fight.
So Lin Xiao had already discovered him?
But it made sense. With him carrying the Cold Jade everywhere, Gu Nianci must have been driven mad with worry.
It wasn't impossible that she had contacted Lin Xiao.
"You've already notified him, haven't you?" Gu Qingfeng pointed at Mingyi's earpiece.
"Yes."
"Alright, then find a place and wait for the Dragon King to arrive." Gu Qingfeng said, looking around. He spotted a late-night snack stall across the street and said, "Let's go there."
With a wave of his hand, Mingyi was pulled along involuntarily!
Was this the strength of someone ranked thirty-fifth on the Earthly Ranking?
"Young man, have you also cultivated the 'Overbearing True Qi'?" As they sat down, Gu Qingfeng kept scrutinizing Mingyi, who was almost the same age as Lin Xiao.
Someone of this cultivation at this age...
Could already be considered a gifted prodigy.
Lin Xiao, on the other hand, was a monster.
"No..."
He shook his head quickly.
He had heard of the 'Overbearing True Qi'. It was something Brother Xiao cultivated, but he wasn't fortunate enough to practice it.
"You haven't?"
This made Gu Qingfeng even more curious. At this age, to possess such cultivation without practicing the 'Overbearing True Qi'?
It was truly remarkable.
Such a person was undoubtedly a heaven's favorite. If nurtured properly, he would be an Earthly Ranking expert within two years!
He never expected someone like this to be a member of the Dragon King Army under Lin Xiao.
It was indeed the Dragon King Army. Only people like him could stand guard on the frontier with Lin Xiao and be invincible.
It took Lin Xiao less than thirty seconds to reach the location.
Upon arrival, he saw Mingyi and Gu Qingfeng chatting and felt relieved. With a slight movement of his foot, he sat down beside them.
"Brother Xiao!"
"Mr. Lin."
As Lin Xiao sat down, a flicker of surprise crossed Gu Qingfeng's eyes. In that brief moment, he hadn't even perceived the movement, and Lin Xiao's appearance was as ethereal as a ghost.
Mingyi instinctively prepared to stand up and leave.
"Sit down and have a late-night snack." Lin Xiao held Mingyi back and looked at Gu Qingfeng. "Mr. Gu, the old lady from the Gu family has come to see me. I notified her on my way here, and she should arrive soon."
"As it should be."
Gu Qingfeng nodded, not surprised. "Mr. Lin, might we be able to make a trade?"
"What kind of trade?"
"An exchange."
Gu Qingfeng pushed the brocade box towards Lin Xiao. "I'll trade the Gu family's inherited Cold Jade for your Overbearing True Qi."
"Why?" Lin Xiao didn't refuse immediately, instead, his interest was piqued. Was this the trade?
Had Gu Qingfeng sensed something from within?
"Back then, your grandfather and Mr. Lin's great-grandfather were the last two Divine Realm experts of Longguo. They left behind their legacies. Don't you want to study them carefully and find a way to enter the Divine Realm?" Gu Qingfeng asked, showing no intention of taking the brocade box back.
Now, Lin Xiao was here, and Gu Nianci was on her way. It was clear that Lin Xiao had reached an agreement with Gu Nianci.
Therefore, he couldn't leave, nor would he be allowed to leave.
He couldn't keep this Cold Jade either, so he might as well try to make a deal with Lin Xiao.
"I have had the thought, but I don't think I need to make this trade with you."
