C78 Amazing Identity

The group of people led the way into the manor. The old woman felt very uncomfortable, but since the other party was so polite and considerate, she could not say much. She could only follow the rugged man into the manor.

"I am An Xiong. I was lucky enough to get the attention of the country's lord. I hereby grant you the position of city lord of Yan City." Senior came here from the Ancient Desolate Land and has come from far away, but junior will do his best to help you. "

Hearing this, the old woman frowned slightly and turned her head to look at An Xiong who was half a body taller than her. She saw that his eyes were filled with respect and didn't have any other thoughts in his mind. Only then did her expression soften. The old woman herself did not like people asking about her background the most.

"How do you know that I came from the Ancient Desolation?" Even though she had asked this question in a seemingly casual manner, An Xiong was able to deduce it from the old woman's displeasure just now. If he couldn't give her a satisfactory answer, he would be doomed the next moment.

Carefully organizing his words, he spoke again, "Senior, with your dressing, you can instantly recognize that you don't have the appearance of someone who has lived here for a long time. "If this robe of yours is used in places like the Ancient Wastelands, this junior dares to speculate that the old senior should be from the Ancient Wastelands."

"Just because of this?" The old woman was obviously not satisfied with this answer.

"Also, the black magic stone that you took out from the city gate earlier. I believe that there aren't many people on this continent who would be able to possess a black magic stone and still appear in other empires."

An Xiong's voice wasn't loud, but the old woman beside him could clearly hear him. He looked at the hill-like giant again. The old woman already had a very high opinion of him. It seemed that this person's mind wasn't as rough as it seemed.

"Are you sure that rock is the Dark Illusion Stone?" The old woman threw out another question.

"Junior cannot. In this world, there are very few people who can truly see and recognize the legendary Black Illusion Stone. Naturally, junior would not be fortunate enough to personally see such a low status. However, this junior heard that you were able to eliminate the entire Cyan Cloud Sect within a few breaths' time. For a senior with such terrifying strength, it's only natural that he would not bother to bring a fake Black Illusion Stone with him. " An Xiong respectfully replied.

The old woman nodded slightly when she heard this. This seemingly rough man was indeed meticulous. Not only did he reveal the old man's identity without anyone noticing, he even flattered him without anyone noticing. Even with the old woman's high status, she was still very pleased with the flattery.

Seeing that the old woman didn't deny her speculations, An Xiong was even more shocked. She did not deny that he had already admitted to her speculations about her identity. This meant that this old man was indeed one of the powerhouses of the Ancient Desolate Empire.

Even though he had already guessed this outcome, he was prepared in his heart. However, when he confirmed the old man's identity, this huge psychological impact still made him feel a bit dizzy.

The most unique part of the Ancient Wasteland was the possession of countless secret regions, secret regions, ancient ruins and so on. At some point in time, the Ancient Desolation Congress would be open to the public in one of these areas, allowing members of the other empires to explore. All the items that he had obtained could be taken away by himself. Back then, Teng Xiao Yun came to a secret realm to explore the Ancient Wastelands, so he obtained that mysterious stone block. In the end, he attracted a lot of attention.

Although the Ancient Wastelands was often opened to the public, the people of the Ancient Wastelands rarely traveled to other empires. There weren't many who had actually seen the Ancient Wastelands before. Therefore, when the old woman entered the city, although the city guards felt that her attire was strange, they didn't know where she came from.

On the other hand, since An Xiong had been to the Ancient Desolate Empire for training in the outside world, he was able to know that the old woman in front of him was a member of the Ancient Desolate Empire. There were two rarely seen grand characters within the Ancient Desolate Empire. One of them was this old woman who looked like she was in her forties. Very few people had heard of her. However, when it comes to the Floating Life and Mirage in the Ancient Desolation, everyone knew her. Although her name could be said to be spread throughout the entire continent, there weren't many people who had actually seen her.

There were many rumors about her, but it was impossible to determine what was true and what was false. However, it was certain that her strength could be considered the pinnacle of the entire continent. Even the king of the Ye Lin Empire did not dare act rashly in front of her. After An Xiong had confirmed the old woman's identity, he was no longer able to control his excitement. It was understandable.

Legend has it that Floating Life and Illusionary Life had long ago disappeared. On the continent, it had been many years since someone mentioned them. There were even some who suspected that she had long passed away due to her old age, but now that he saw her in person, he felt that the world's rumours were false.

They quickly entered the hall. At this moment, An Xiong could see that this senior didn't like the liveliness, so he waved his hand and dismissed all the guards in the hall. Uncle Tian and him were left behind.

Not long after, a young girl dressed in gorgeous clothing entered the hall while carrying a cup of hot tea. The young girl served hot tea and stood by the side with her head bowed. Although her attitude was respectful, she still couldn't help but sneak a glance at the old woman.

"This is junior's daughter. She does not work all day, and only knows how to mess around." This time, knowing that the old senior is condescending to come, this junior dared to ask her to come forward and serve you tea, and also let this untalented girl have a look at the world. "

The old woman tilted her head and opened her turbid eyes to size up the little girl beside her.

"This girl is so beautiful, and at such a young age, she is already at the fifth level of the Bone Refining stage. She is already quite talented, if she diligently practices, her future achievements will definitely not be mediocre."

The old woman's words were not a compliment. She hated those hypocrites who were always pretending to be courteous the most. As a result, in Commander Zhang Yu's residence, although the other party could be considered to be well-mannered, she did not have the slightest bit of face to leave behind any kind words. Now, this evaluation of Anya was completely sincere.

Upon hearing the old woman's words, An Xiong's face was filled with a smile. He could already tell that the old woman's every word was from the bottom of her heart. After being delighted, he immediately said, "To be able to receive the praises of this senior is also my daughter's fortune. I just don't know …"

The old woman waved her hand impatiently, signalling for An Xiong to stop. She coldly said, "I've long since lost the will to accept a disciple. I've come here to trouble the city lord for something."

When the old woman saw that the mayor had asked her own daughter to serve tea, she had already guessed the gist of it. Now that the mayor had spoken, she understood even more clearly what the city lord was scheming.

Therefore, he did not wait for him to finish and waved his hand, interrupting him. What he said afterwards was to intentionally or unintentionally distance himself from the City Lord's Mansion, and also to prevent the City Lord from wanting to give his daughter to him as a disciple.

An Xiong's attempt was seen through and rejected. His expression was somewhat awkward, but he quickly recovered. He laughed dryly for a while before replying.

"Haha, since senior is interested, I'll bring you to see my training room."

An Xiong was indeed worthy of being Yan City's Lord. He was able to do as he pleased, but when he saw that he couldn't, he didn't mention anything else. He passionately invited this old man to his cultivation room.

Before this old woman had arrived, her presence in Yan City had already been reported to him. Naturally, he knew the purpose of her visit.

Not too long after, An Xiong, the old woman, Uncle Tian, and Anya arrived at a quiet room. A black clothed Shadow Guard was already standing by the side of the door. Just like before, the old woman only stood at the doorway for a moment before nodding her head in An Xiong's direction.

"Let's go to the next place." An Xiong didn't waste any time talking and brought the old woman to another secret chamber.

Before long, everyone had reached the last secret chamber. At this moment, the old woman was frowning as well. Due to several reasons, it was inconvenient for her to reveal what she was looking for. Naturally, An Xiong didn't dare to open his mouth to ask. However, after walking through the two rooms and finding nothing, the old woman could not help but become a little hesitant.

'Could it be that my guess was wrong? The person who caused the strange phenomenon has already left Yan City, but I feel that this idea is very funny. 'Or there might be people who know what it is that they're looking for and purposefully hid it away. However, if you think about it carefully, it's not likely.

The door to the last chamber slowly opened. This time, the old woman walked in almost as soon as it was opened. Her heart was definitely not as calm as she appeared on the surface. However, after entering the secret room, she was disappointed to find that it was as empty as the previous rooms. There was only a simple stone bed and a stone table inside.

The old man stood in the chamber with his brows tightly knitted together. No matter what, she couldn't figure out the reason behind this. He had rushed to the scene as soon as it happened, and his psychokinesis was very broad, so it was impossible for him to bring it out of Yan City in such a short period of time.

The room that the old woman was standing in was the one that An Xiong had prepared for his daughter, Anya. Zuo Tianlin had been among them before, but then Anxiong said there was a big man who might be coming to inspect the secret room. Anya saw that the red phenomenon on Zuo Tianshuang's body had already disappeared, but he was still unconscious. Thus, she moved him away and put him in her room.

Right now, Zuo Tianlang was no different from an ordinary person. Therefore, even if the old woman were to release her psychokinesis to envelop Yan City, she wouldn't be able to discover that an ordinary girl was the person she was looking for.

The old woman helplessly left the stone room. When she was about to exit the room, her body paused for a moment before she spoke to An Xiong beside her.

"I never thought that with the City Lord's cultivation, he would be able to expel the impurities in his body and purify his body, resulting in a clean and empty body. Congratulations."

With that, the old man leaped up without even looking back. With a few flashes, he disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving behind An Xiong, Uncle Tian, and the others with confused expressions on their faces.
