Zhang Xiufeng’s sudden action left everyone dumbfounded.
Including Ivan and Yevgeny.
Ivan looked at Zhang Xiufeng, who was suddenly bowing deeply, with a twisted expression, then glanced at Chen Lusi in front of Zhang Xiufeng, his thoughts in chaos.
He suddenly felt.
This Chen Lusi might not be as simple as he thought...
And just as this thought ca up, his expression changed again, suddenly realizing.
It seed like he’d been given a cold shoulder...
With that thought.
He glanced back at Yevgeny, discovering his pupils were shaking violently, obviously in shock as well.
"..."
Seeing this, Ivan felt as if he had just swallowed sothing disgusting.
At the sa ti.
Xia Yue and Chen Lusi exchanged glances.
In the end, it was Lin Wan behind Chen Lusi who reacted first.
She quietly shifted towards her elder sister, tugging at her sleeve, and whispered, "Sis... this doesn’t seem like sothing we can leave quickly."
"..."
Lin Ying said nothing, just glanced at Ivan standing behind Chen Lusi, seemingly intending to put a hand on his shoulder, squinting her beautiful eyes, lost in thought.
At this mont.
Maybe because he heard Lin Wan’s voice.
Xia Yue finally snapped back to reality.
"Old Zhang, what are you doing? We have guests, even if you’re excited, you can’t act like this."
Xia Yue looked at the bewildered Chen Lusi, unable to suppress his laughter as he bent over to hold Zhang Xiufeng’s shoulder.
And the mont Xia Yue touched him.
Zhang Xiufeng jerked back to his senses from his state of complete shock, slowly raised his head to look at Chen Lusi.
Chen Lusi wasn’t wearing any Daoist robe.
And in front of him... there was no Ancestral Celestial Master.
Then.
He looked down at himself and quickly got up.
But after getting up, he still stared at Chen Lusi in a daze, lost in thought.
"What’s going on?"
Chen Lusi looked at Xia Yue, unable to resist asking.
He had anticipated many outcos, such as this Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain noticing him, or so anomaly with his Daoist lineage.
In any case, he had considered almost every possible scenario.
Except.
The idea that Celestial Master Zhang would just bow down to him.
And doing it so quickly.
He didn’t even have ti to dodge.
"Not sure, we’ll talk about it later, let’s go inside first, since we have guests."
Xia Yue shrugged, whether he didn’t care or didn’t think it was a big deal, he glossed over the matter lightly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Lusi looked at Zhang Xiufeng, who was rely staring at him with a complex expression, unwilling to speak, so he had to let it go for now and turned to the young man with a narrow and high nose, dium build, and short light brown hair behind him.
Seemingly, he wanted to say sothing just now?
"Is there sothing you need?"
Chen Lusi asked.
He had no particular affection for people from the Chamomile Alliance but also no strong aversion, so his tone was very calm.
However.
This calm tone, in Ivan’s ears, directly beca so kind of threat.
A person who could make the Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain kneel was looking down at him, calmly asking him what he needed.
The tone was without any emotion, as if facing an ant.
Tch.
This arrogance.
Such a person, he’d really like to punch him!
"No... nothing, sorry for disturbing you."
Ivan took a deep breath, then lowered his hand, shaking his head.
Chen Lusi slightly furrowed his brow in confusion.
"Xia Yue Celestial Strategy, long ti no see."
At this mont.
Yevgeny finally reacted from afar, fearing Ivan might say sothing wrong, he quickly stepped up behind Chen Lusi, giving him a deep look, then greeted Xia Yue.
Speaking in impeccable Mandarin.
"...Who are you?"
Xia Yue looked at Yevgeny, sowhat puzzled.
Yevgeny remained expressionless, explaining, "Yevgeny, High Priest of the Amur District, t you at the treaty site on the border."
"Oh, you’re from the Old Ritualist Sect, long ti no see."
Xia Yue smiled, greeting him.
Yevgeny could see that Xia Yue didn’t really rember him, but he didn’t say anything.
On the other side.
Ivan also looked at Xia Yue.
However, before he could introduce himself.
Yevgeny took the initiative to say, "This is Ivan Priest."
"Oh, nice to et you too."
Xia Yue nodded, but didn’t seem to take it to heart.
Clearly, he didn’t rember Ivan either.
"..."
Ivan felt once again like he’d swallowed sothing disgusting.
"Welco to your journey from afar, please co inside."
After the introductions from the Chamomile Alliance people were complete, Xia Yue hesitated for a mont, glanced at Zhang Xiufeng, and reminded them.
Zhang Xiufeng continued to stare at Chen Lusi, completely unresponsive.
"Forget it, why don’t you all go in first."
Xia Yue, seeing no other choice, turned back to Yevgeny.
"It’s alright."
Yevgeny hesitated for a mont, shook his head, then gathered his words, asking, "Xia Yue Celestial Strategy, is the person beside you the Celestial Master Zhang of Dragon Tiger Mountain?"
Xia Yue nodded, "Yes."
Yevgeny then set his gaze on Chen Lusi, "And this is Mr. Chen Lusi?"
"Mm."
Xia Yue nodded again.
Yevgeny probed further, "What’s the relationship between the two? Just now..."
"No relationship."
Xia Yue replied with a smile, "It’s their first eting too, what just happened was just an accident."
Yevgeny: "..."
Ivan: "..."
Who are you trying to fool!
No relationship, and they just t for the first ti but suddenly bow down?
And in such a full prostration?
The other guy is still in shock, staring at Chen Lusi!
Both felt that Xia Yue wasn’t being truthful.
