Upon hearing this sentence, Qin Yuan let out a long breath, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted from his heart.
Because his greatest fear was that someone like Xue An would also be tainted by the current arrogance of humanity, thus blinding himself.
If that happened, and something went wrong, it could spell disaster for all mankind.
But now it seemed that Xue An was not at all arrogant; on the contrary, he was very clear-headed.
This was the best outcome for Qin Yuan.
"It’s just a small insight, but if it can help Mr. Xue, that would be great!"
Just then, Xue An suddenly lifted his head and looked towards the outside of the door, then smiled and said, "It’s really quite lively tonight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice full of respect was heard from outside.
"The 67th-generation heir of the Heavenly Master Mansion, the current Heavenly Master Zhang Chu, pays respects, my lord!"
Heavenly Master Mansion?
Many people looked bewildered.
Qin Yuan and Qin Yu, however, were taken aback.
Because the current Heavenly Master Mansion was considered a prominent Daoist sect in China.
Zhang Chu was even hailed as an Immortal of the present age.
Why did he come here too?
At this moment, Xue An chuckled lightly and said, "Come on in! The door isn’t locked!"
With that said, the door of the restaurant was gently pushed open, and a man in Daoist robes with an extraordinary demeanor walked in.
It was Zhang Chu.
And behind him followed several disciples, including Zhang Fengwu and Zhang Jingping, the senior brother and sister whom Xue An had encountered upon his return.
Zhang Chu’s aura was somewhat chaotic now because he had rushed here all the way.
From Jiangyou’s Heavenly Master Mansion to Beijiang, he used less than an incense stick’s worth of time, and bringing a few disciples added great pressure on him.
Yet he was still very excited.
Because just moments ago, he was meditating with his eyes closed in the Heavenly Master Mansion.
Although he hadn’t participated in the outer space interception battle, the weight on his shoulders was no light burden.
In today’s China, evil spirits were rampant, and monsters were on the loose.
As a Daoist sect, the Heavenly Master Mansion was duty-bound to undertake the heavy responsibility of subjugating demons and eliminating evil.
Wherever demons appeared, the disciples of the Heavenly Master Mansion would appear there, like emergency firefighters.
Today, Zhang Chu had just eliminated several powerful evil spirits, but his own energies were greatly depleted, so he took advantage of this rare leisure to recuperate.
Then Zhang Fengwu and Zhang Jingping returned.
As disciples dispatched outside, they naturally had to report back upon return, but this time Zhang Fengwu went directly to the back mountain and informed his master that he had something extremely important to discuss with the grandmaster.
Eventually, he met Zhang Chu smoothly and then took out the elixir that Xue An had granted him.
Upon seeing this object, Zhang Chu was struck as if by lightning, for although it was casually given by Xue An, to Zhang Chu, this elixir was unprecedented and incredibly valuable.
Immediately, Zhang Fengwu recounted in detail his encounter with Xue An, finally saying somewhat hesitantly.
"Grandmaster, he said that if you asked who he was, I should tell you, ’Is the Daoist Mansion’s real weapon still handy?’"
Hearing this, Zhang Chu stood up suddenly, his eyes shining brightly, murmuring in disbelief, "It’s him! It’s really him who has returned!"
As he spoke, he asked eagerly, "Did the lord mention where he went?"
"No!" Zhang Fengwu shook his head.
Zhang Chu seemed a bit dejected. He definitely guessed that the person who granted the elixir was Xue An, but since Xue An hadn’t revealed his whereabouts, he evidently didn’t plan to see him.
But just then, news came that Xue An might be in Beijiang.
