Chapter 1834: Chapter 1834: The Elder Misjudged
He settled down in front of a teahouse and ordered a pot of good tea.
The two disciples from dical Valley also ca over, and one of them asked with a smile, “Excuse , young master, may my junior brother and I sit here?”
“Of course.”
Xie Qi nodded; this was exactly what he had hoped for.
He ordered so lon seeds and pastries as well, sharing them with the two disciples from dical Valley.
“Young masters, may I know how to address you?”
“My surna is Zheng. Just call Zheng Qi, and this is my junior brother Zhong Yue. How should we address you?” Zheng Qi answered, then inquired in return.
“My surna is Xie, with a single na of Qi.”
Xie Qi replied. Although he wasn’t too keen on revealing his own na, it seed that they would travel together with the disciples from dical Valley for a while, and he didn’t want to use a false na, which would be inconvenient.
Indeed, after he gave his surna, Zheng Qi and Zhong Yue exchanged a look, a hint of peculiarity in their eyes.
The surna Xie was very rare in the Xilin Plane (apologies for the previous naming mistake, corrected here!), almost non-existent.
But the surna Xie was also well-known since those with the surna Xie in the Xilin Plane were not good people, utterly vicious yet very powerful, beings that few dared to provoke.
And those few with the surna Xie, they nearly knew all of them, but they had never seen this person before them.
Moreover, this person was a follower of those two individuals.
“Surna Xie, huh, hehe.”
Zhong Yue chuckled uneasily, seemingly at a loss for words.
“Hmm-hmm.”
Xie Qi humd softly, muttering to himself that as long as he wasn’t the one feeling awkward, it was others who should feel that way.
Even so, he still offered an explanation, not wanting the two to be on guard against him.
“I followed my lord here from Wulong Mountain,” he said.
Having traveled through nurous planes, he had concluded that bearers of the surna Xie were never decent folks. He himself had been hounded and chased in other planes.
If it hadn’t been for his own abilities… no, if his lord and lady were not so capable, he doubted whether he would have t his end in other planes, his bones left unburied.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Qi and Zhong Yue exchanged glances.
Coming from Wulong Mountain, there was no need to be overly suspicious. The people of Wulong Mountain were of mixed character, with various surnas, and not distinguished by good or bad.
However, this was clearly different from what the Seventh Elder had said. Hadn’t the Seventh Elder suggested that they were very likely from Huayan Peak? And from the Elder’s tone, it seed almost certain that the three of them had co from Huayan Peak.
So why were they now saying they had co from Wulong Mountain?
Could the Elder have been mistaken? Or was this Young Master Xie not telling the truth?
But if they were from Huayan Peak, they would surely be people of their own plane, and those who had recently ventured to Huayan Peak, surnad Yi, would definitely be recognized by them.
Wulong Mountain was the only possibility left.
“It turns out you are a distinguished individual from Wulong Mountain. Forgive our ignorance for not realizing it earlier.” Zheng Qi poured a cup of tea for Xie Qi with a smile and also filled cups for himself and his junior brother.
“I am truly at fault. Allow to take a drink of tea as punishnt in lieu of wine.”
“No worries, no worries.”
Xie Qi smiled without saying anything else.
He was thinking about how to follow these people to dical Valley. It was definitely impossible to directly ask for the whereabouts of the Silence Stone here.
