The young girl looked at Ye Xiao and said, "My name is Song Yourong. I'm the daughter of the Song Family's patriarch. We don't have time, let's go and I'll explain to you in the way there what to do.
In the following conversation, Ye Xiao found out the cause and effect of the incident.
Song Yourong was the only daughter of the Song Family Patriarch. She was now only one step away from becoming the Immortal Formation Grandmaster.
Ever since she was young, Song Yourong had displayed an astonishing talent in formation. Because of this, at a young age, she was brought to the Formation Guild of the Golden Kingdom.
The Guild Leader of the Formation Guild took her in as his disciple. In addition to her, there was another young man called Xu Dingfeng who was also the disciple of her master.
Song Yourong's senior brother Xu Dingfeng had similarly outstanding talent. Although he was older than Song Yourong by a few years, he was also only a single step away from becoming the Immortal Formation Grandmaster.
Originally, for the Formation Guild to have these two shockingly extraordinary genius formation masters was definitely a blessing.
But who would have thought that two years ago, a mysterious man took away her senior brother? When her senior brother came back, he completely changed. Now, he wanted to take away the only Top Grade Immortal Rank Treasure of the Formation Guild.
With Xu Dingfeng's strength alone, it would be difficult for him to take away that treasure, however, who would have thought that even the Second and Third Elder of the Formation Guild was supporting Xu Dingfeng, backing him.
Fortunately, the Vice Leader of the Formation Guild stood on the leader's side. Vice Sect Leader didn't try every means possible to stop Xu Dingfeng from taking away the treasure.
Finding it difficult to take away the treasure, Xu Dingfeng challenged all the younger generation of the Formation Guild with the condition that if he won, he'll take definitely take the treasure.
The Leader of the Formation Guild accepted Xu Dingfeng's challenge. In the younger generation of the Formation Guild, Song Yourong was the most talented and strongest person, so he gave the responsibility to defeat Xu Dingfeng to Song Yourong.
The task was simple. Guild Leader set up two exactly the same formations and Song Yourong as well as Xu Dingfeng has to break that formation. The time limit was three days and today was the third day.
Seeing that no one was able to break the formation, Guild Leader told the two of them to find a helper.
"So that's how it is!" Ye Xiao nodded his head in understanding.
"I don't need to beat Xu Dingfeng, as long as we don't let him win, it'll be ok!" Song Yourong said.
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You just don't have confidence in me."
Song Yourong did not deny that, in her opinion, there was a high chance that the companion that Xu Dingfeng was looking for was on the same level as Ye Xiao, maybe even stronger.
Song Yourong again said, "Of course, I don't like owing favours to others. After this is over, I'll give you whatever you want from me."
Ye Xiao said, "I just want a stalk of Snow Fluorescent Grass and Dark Star Iron."
Song Yourong nodded her head and said, "If you can really help me break that formation, I promise, I'll give you the two things you want."
About half an hour later, under Song Yourong's lead, Ye Xiao arrived at Formation Guild.
This was a huge building and on top of the building were written two words that were giving off a majestic aura. These two words were "Formation Guild". Of course, this Formation Guild was only a small branch that was established in the Imperial City of the Golden Kingdom.
A stone lion over three meters tall was squatting on each side of the gate. The guards at the door were quite sharp. This kind of aura was enough to let people not dare to cause any trouble here.
"Miss Song!" The guard at the door bowed respectfully when he saw Song Yourong coming.
Song Yourong lightly waved her hand and immediately brought Ye Xiao and entered the building.
Seeing that Song Yourong had brought back an unfamiliar man, everyone in the Formation Guild cast strange looks at her. Many of the young generations of the families were shocked and confused.
"Who is that person?"
"I don't know. I've never seen this person before."
"Could he be the helper that the Miss Song invited back? that person looks so young, it seems like she will win against Xu Dingfeng."
Ye Xiao's face was too unfamiliar to the people of the Formation Guild. Furthermore, Ye Xiao was really too young.
Song Yourong did not seem to hear the whispers of the people around her. She arranged for Ye Xiao to stay in the guest room for some time and said, "I'll have to trouble you to stay here for a while. When everything will be ready, I'll come and look for you."
Looking at the bright bedroom, Ye Xiao smiled and nodded his head.
.....
_One hour later, On A Huge Platform_
This was the location where two large formations were laid down by the Formation Guild's Leader.
Each stone bricks that the platform was made of were dark red coloured and if one touched them with their hands, they would be able to feel a scorching heat.
At this moment, the surrounding area of the platform was already completely surrounded by a dense crowd.
The surrounding audience was in an uproar. There were some people of the Second and Third Elder of the Formation Guild in this crowd and they supported Xu Dingfeng while others were the supporter of Song Yourong.
At the same time, under Song Yourong's lead, Ye Xiao had already arrived at this place.
The appearance of these two people immediately attracted the attention of countless people present. Everyone's attention was on Ye Xiao.
"Who is this person?"
"I don't know either. I've never seen him before."
"Senior Sister Yourong shouldn't just be finding someone to come back and help, right?"
Ye Xiao was very calm when faced with the looks of suspicion from the surroundings.
He stood on the Platform with Song Yourong and was looking straight ahead as if he was trying to figure something out.
Immediately after, a commotion sounded from the other side of the platform.
"Senior brother Dingfeng is here."
"What Senior Brother? He is a traitor and came here to rob us of our only Top Grade Immortal Rank Treasure."
"That's true... Look, who's his partner?"
Hearing the commotion, Ye Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction everyone was looking.
Under the crowd of young men and women, Xu Dingfeng walked closer towards them.
Xu Dingfeng had a handsome appearance but there was a hint of unpleasantness and ruthlessness between his brows.
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes and shifted his attention to a middle-aged in white clothes beside Xu Dingfeng.
"Wow, it can't be. Is that Ning Feiming of the Ning Family?"
"Who else could it be other than him?"
"I never thought that Xu Dingfeng would actually invite Ning Feiming over. Senior Sister Yourong is going to lose. This Ning Feiming is already an Immortal Formation Grandmaster for over ten years."
When Song Yourong saw that the person Xu Dingfeng had brought was Ning Feiming, her complexion immediately paled. Her two hands could not help but tightly clench into a fist, and her delicate eyebrows revealed a strong sense of seriousness.
Although she has already fought against Ye Xiao and knew that Ye Xiao was also an Immortal Formation Grandmaster, she knew Ning Feiming better.
Ning Feiming was famous and was renowned formation grandmaster of the Golden Kingdom. He is someone even the Formation Guild invited to become an elder but was rejected by the other party.
She started doubting if Ye Xiao can win against this Ning Feiming or not
Ning Feiming's Ning Family was one of the big families in the Imperial City of the Golden Kingdom. Ning Feiming was the most talented formation master in the history of the Ning Family and even the Golden Kingdom.
Ning Feiming's appearance was like a heavy hammer fiercely smashing into Song Yourong's heart. Her beautiful face was a little pale and her hands were clenched into fists. Her nails pierced into her flesh, causing her to feel faint pain.
Under the different gazes of everyone present, Xu Dingfeng and Ning Feiming walked in front of Song Yourong. Xu Dingfeng's eyes slanted as he looked at Ye Xiao who was beside Song Yourong with interest and said, "Yourong, is this the partner you found?"
His tone was laced with disdain.
Song Yourong creased her delicate eyebrows and coldly replied, "The word 'Yourong' is not something you should call me. Please call me Miss Song."
Ever since the day Xu Dingfeng wanted to snatch the treasure of the Formation Guild, Song Yourong no longer considered him as her Senior Brother.
