The Second Elder frowned in doubt. "Is it possible? I admit that they are talented, but I don't think they can fool us as you said."
Peng Zheng smiled faintly. "Nothing is impossible. Have you ever thought there would be someone as talented as Yun Lintian?"
The Second Elder went silent immediately. That was right. He had never thought before someone could fight the opponent with two realms higher than him, and this Yun Lintian had proven him wrong.
Seeing the Second Elder was silent, Peng Zheng said further. "So, if this is true. I believe everyone should understand the consequence, right?"
Everyone in the hall glanced at each other, and their faces turned ashen. It was hard to believe the entire clan had been fooled by an Origin Profound ant for all this time.
"What should we do now?" One of the clan elders asked.
Peng Zheng pondered for a moment and said. "We should pay attention to their movement closely. I believe they should have other members hiding in the dark. As long as we can grab their tails, we can start to eradicate all of them in one fell swoop."
Peng Huang slapped the armrest and said loudly. "Arrange our best spies to stare at them. I want to know everything they did."
"Yes, Patriarch." Everyone shouted in unison and quickly left the hall, leaving Peng Zheng and Peng Huang behind.
"Are you confident, son?" After everyone left, Peng Huang turned to look at Peng Zheng.
Peng Zheng shook his head. "I'm not sure either. We have tried to investigate his background for a long time now, but we can't find any clue. Clearly, someone has covered him. I doubt Han Bingling could do this alone."
"You meanâŠ" Peng Huang frowned.
Peng Zheng nodded. A strange light flashed across his eyes as he said. "There should be another person behind this⊠I'm more curious now. What secret this Yun Lintian has to make these people spare no effort to cover him."
"You're correct. There's someone secretly protecting him, and this person is not something we can handle." Suddenly, a male voice rang out from the hall entrance, and a tall figure slowly walked in.
The expressions of Peng Huang and Peng Zheng abruptly changed. They had clearly put up a powerful isolation barrier, yet this person could bypass it without them knowing. Both of them immediately released their aura, filling the entire hall with immense pressure.
The newcomer was a young man with an extraordinary bearing. His face could be described as evilly handsome with narrowed eyes and sharp brows. Outwardly, he was cultured and refined, looking like a noble heir from an aristocrat clan.
He leisurely fanned a white jade fan in his hand as he walked in without even squinting his eyes under Peng Huang and Peng Zheng's aura.
"Who are you?" Peng Huang said coldly while observing this man. For some reason, he could not see through him at all.
The man didn't say anything and calmly found a chair nearby to sit on before looking at Peng Zheng with a smile. "You're not bad. However, your talent is not enough if you want to enter our core group."
Peng Zheng's brows raised slightly. "You've been sent here by the above?"
The man smiled gently. "My name is Yin Xu. I'm here to take care of the mess."
Peng Huang's complexion changed slightly, and he quickly retracted his aura. He cupped his fists and said. "Welcome, Young Master Yin, to visit my clan. Please forgive my rudeness earlier."
Yin Xu stopped fanning and replied. "It's fine. I'm not going to punish you or anything." He turned to look at Peng Zheng and asked. "Why don't you tell me more about this Yun Lintian. Honestly, before coming here, I don't believe such a talented individual exists in this world."
Peng Zheng nodded and slowly narrated everything about Yun Lintian from the first day he entered the divine city until the recent event.
Listening to Peng Zheng's narration, Yin Xu didn't even frown. Instead, he was becoming excited as if he had just discovered a peerless treasure.
"Interesting." Yin Xu said with a smile.
Peng Huang hesitated briefly and finally said. "This person has to die. With his talent, I'm afraid he will become the biggest stump to us in the near future."
Yin Xu chuckled. "Isn't it obvious? He could destroy the old lord Dragon Fallen is obvious proof of his capability. And his abnormal battle prowess isn't something people in this world can possess. I bet he is a descendant of a certain lord from the other worlds."
Peng Huang and Peng Zheng looked at each other in shock. It wasn't that they hadn't thought about it before, but rather it was difficult to believe, and they simply had no clue about how the other worlds looked like.
"Where's he now? I'll go check on him myself." Yin Xu suddenly asked.
"Young Master Yin, I'm afraid this is not a good idea." Peng Huang said with caution.
Yin Xu waved his hand. "I understand your worry, but he isn't capable enough to fight me." Following that, an overwhelmingly powerful aura slowly seeped out of his body, causing Peng Huang and Peng Zheng to suffocate.
Especially Peng Huang. At first, he thought Yin Xu was probably a high-level Monarch at most. But from the aura he had released, he believed Yin Xu was far stronger than him, who was already at the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm.
Peng Huang took a deep breath and hurriedly replied. "He's now staying in his restaurant. I'll give Young Master Yin a position now."
Yin Xu received a trace of a spiritual message from Peng Huang. He then stood up and said. "You don't have to send someone to watch him. All of you need to do right now is prevent Han Bingling from interfering with my matter. As for that old dog Tian, I'll take care of him myself."
"Understood, Young Master Yin." Peng Huang and Peng Zheng said in unison.
Yin Xu smiled and walked out of the hall while leisurely fanning the fan.
