Yuan Ping'an said to have Gao Xuan act as the contact person, but in reality, he just took Gao Xuan around for a turn, even bringing him to the Yao Family once.
The Yao Family is also a great family; it can't be wiped out just because of Yao Guang. That's not Yuan Ping'an's style.
The patriarch of the Yao Family, Yao Yuan, was terrified and anxious facing Yuan Ping'an, swearing he didn't know what Yao Guang did. He also cursed Yao Guang and praised Yuan Ping'an for slaying monsters and eliminating evils, claiming that it rid the Yao Family of a disaster.
Gao Xuan observed from the sidelines and saw clearly that this old man Yao Yuan was truly inscrutable and adept at handling things. Even though Yuan Ping'an killed his most valuable grandson, he was exceptionally respectful and affable towards Yuan Ping'an, always calling him master.
Yao Yuan is over three hundred years old this year, and in terms of age, he is over a hundred years older than Yuan Ping'an. More than ample to be Yuan Ping'an's grandfather. But in front of Yuan Ping'an, his attitude was as ek as a grandson.
This submissive posture was so natural that Gao Xuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This old man is hard to deal with!
No matter what Yuan Ping'an says to the outside world, the Yao Family will surely bla him.
The Yao Family, being such a great family, has deep roots. With Yao Yuan being so patient, they will surely seek revenge when they have the chance in the future.
However, in the short term, the Yao Family should not have the courage to touch him.
Upon leaving the Yao Family, Yuan Ping'an sighed to Gao Xuan, "This old man is very reserved and deep; he will surely trouble you in the future. Unfortunately, the Hall Master has instructed not to act recklessly."
Yuan Ping'an was resolute enough to uproot the Yao Family, but he is not of that kind of disposition.
Killing Yao Guang was half because Yao Guang was highly suspicious. The other half was to stand out for Gao Xuan.
Of course, Xu Jun was stirring things up, providing all sorts of ssy evidence.
Furthermore, Yuan Ping'an did not want to beco Xu Family's sword. But eventually, the consequences of this matter would end up on Gao Xuan.
Yuan Ping'an also felt a bit guilty towards Gao Xuan, after all, he didn't handle the matter smoothly, leaving a large hidden danger.
He said to Gao Xuan, "Though you're a bit old, your cultivation talent is excellent. I can make an exception to let you join the Holy Hall. As long as you pass the training assessnt, you can beco a formal Paladin."
As long as Gao Xuan becos a Paladin, all troubles would cease to be troubles.
Gao Xuan understood Yuan Ping'an ant well, but he uncovered the mystery of the Rune Seed and beca more cautious of the Holy Hall.
Ordinary Rune Seed is like this, the Rune Seed for cultivation in the Holy Hall must be even more formidable. Entering the Holy Hall is akin to being under Nuwa's eyesight.
Claiming the most dangerous place is the safest is nonsense!
Using blind spots in the other party's thinking for a clever trick can work. But staying in the most dangerous place long term, absolutely not. Because the margin of error is too low.
Gao Xuan paused for a mont and said, "Master, I'm sorry to disappoint your good intentions. I have developed well in the company, and with your support. Furthermore, I have a beautiful girlfriend; I still want to stay in the company."
Yuan Ping'an nodded understandingly, "Staying in the company is also good. Life and work are sowhat more relaxed. The Holy Hall has great power, but the responsibilities are also large."
He sighed, "I'm leaving tomorrow; how about this, co to my room at nine tonight, I have sothing to tell you."
At nine in the evening, Gao Xuan arrived at Yuan Ping'an's room on ti.
Yuan Ping'an was staying in the luxury suite on the top floor of the Zhongyuan Hotel, Yanzi and others were staying on the floor below.
Though Yuan Ping'an did not stay in the ultimate luxury room, because of his special status, the company still booked the entire floor to avoid anyone disturbing Yuan Ping'an.
Gao Xuan knocked on the door at Yuan Ping'an's entrance and saw the room number once again, suddenly recalling he had been to this suite before.
More than a thousand years ago, he killed the Soul-Seeking Hand Cao Xiong in this suite. As this mory floated up, various details erged.
When Yuan Ping'an opened the door to let Gao Xuan in, Gao Xuan discovered that the layout details in the room were exactly the sa as a thousand years ago. Simply identical.
This was very strange.
During a millennium, the place must have undergone countless renovations; how could the room setup be the sa?
Yuan Ping'an noticed Gao Xuan's gaze and smiled, "This room is very special, it has always maintained its appearance from a thousand years ago, unchanged."
He sowhat sighed, "It's said that the Divine Emperor once assassinated an enemy in this room. Of course, just a rumor. Even if it was, it's sufficient for the room to remain unchanged for a thousand years."
"I see."
Gao Xuan understood, this is a cultural landmark!
Yuan Ping'an said, "Actually, looking through the lifeti experience of the Divine Emperor, one realizes he wasn't a perfect person. In his youth, he acted rather radically. However, it was precisely this sharpness that allowed him to achieve unprecedented achievents…"
Yuan Ping'an was undoubtedly a die-hard fan of the Divine Emperor; saying the Divine Emperor wasn't perfect was also to avoid critiquing the Divine Emperor.
Gao Xuan found it quite interesting to hear others talking about his own legend. He even thought when he regained his original form, he could give Yuan Ping'an a signature.
Of course, Gao Xuan knew very well that Yuan Ping'an worshiped the Divine Emperor, not him, Gao Xuan.
To everyone, Gao Xuan was the Divine Emperor, and the Divine Emperor was Gao Xuan.
In fact, the Divine Emperor was an idol created by the Holy Hall, after countless layers of processing, resulting in the current image of the Divine Emperor.
The Divine Emperor is just an idol, a spiritual belief manifested into a tangible form, not Gao Xuan.
Yuan Ping'an obviously didn't understand this principle, or rather, he didn't dare to think about the distinction within.
To him, the Divine Emperor is the ultimate belief, the foundation of his Spiritual Power, and absolutely unshakable.
