"Hero, wait!"
The owner of the voice that broke the silence was the leader of the Mount Song Sect, who had been staring at Zhang Xuan.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Xuan stopped in his tracks and looked at the imposing man. He smiled and said, "Why? Do you like my little leopard too?"
"Hero, you've misunderstood. I'm the Sect Master of Mount Song Sect, Yun Zhongtian. May I know your name?"
The man who was worried that Zhang Xuan would misunderstand immediately introduced himself and expressed his intention to befriend Zhang Xuan.
He was the Sect Master of Mount Song Sect?
Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows. He had noticed that the man was extraordinary, but he did not expect him to be the Sect Master of Mount Song Sect.
"So it's Sect Master Yun. I've heard a lot about you."
Zhang Xuan laughed. His attitude towards Yun Zhongtian was still very friendly.
After all, the first Connate Realm expert that Zhang Xuan had heard of in this world was the Sect Master of the Mount Song Sect. It was just that he had no chance to meet him.
He did not expect to meet Yun Zhongtian in such a way. This made Zhang Xuan want to laugh.
After all, the Mount Song Sect was one of the largest pugilistic world sects in the Great Zhou Empire. As the sect master of the Mount Song Sect and a Connate Realm expert, Yun Zhongtian should have been presiding over the Mount Song Sect.
Zhang Xuan did not expect that he would be able to maintain such a low profile while bringing the disciples of the Mount Song Sect out.
"May I ask if you're heading to Anyang City?"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had no intention of revealing his name, he did not continue asking. Instead, he changed the topic.
"That's right. I'm about to go to Anyang City."
Zhang Xuan nodded and said with a smile.
Yun Zhongtian's eyes lit up when he heard this. He immediately invited Zhang Xuan,m
"If you don't mind, we can go together."
Yun Zhongtian did not put on airs in front of Zhang Xuan. His attitude was very amiable.
After all, in the entire Great Zhou Empire, there were not many Connate realm experts. Furthermore, they were all famous sect masters.
However, he had no impression of Zhang Xuan and had never even heard of him before. Since he had the chance to meet him, he would try his best to befriend him.
Zhang Xuan was a little surprised by Zhong Yuntian's invitation, but he didn't reject it.
Although the encounter just now was not a threat to him, it was very annoying. If he traveled with the disciples of the Mount Song Sect, it would save him a lot of trouble.
"Sect Master Yun, you're too polite. It's good to have companions on the way. I'll accept it."
Zhang Xuan nodded with a smile and agreed.
Since Yun Zhongtian did not put on airs and took the initiative to befriend him, Zhang Xuan would not insult him.
The two of them traveled together, so Zhang Xuan did not feel bored on the way. He made small talk with Yun Zhongtian.
Of course, most of the time, Yun Zhongtian was the one talking, mainly to find out Zhang Xuan's identity.
Although Zhang Xuan, who had always wanted to keep a low profile, had a good impression of Yun Zhongtian, he would not tell him everything just because he had a good impression of him.
The pugilistic world was dangerous. No matter who he met, he had to keep his words to himself so that no one would know his trump card.
After chatting with Zhang Xuan for a while, Yun Zhongtian couldn't help but ask, "May I know which sect you are from?"
During the conversation with Zhang Xuan, Yun Zhongtian could tell that the other party was still very wary of him, so he could only ask directly.
"I don't belong to any sect. I'm just a nobody."
Zhang Xuan replied nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Yun Zhongtian's eyes lit up, and his heart instantly became lively.
A Connate realm expert without a sect was definitely something that could only be chanced upon by luck.
If they could invite him to the Mount Song Sect, it would definitely improve the overall strength of the Mount Song Sect.
However, although Yun Zhongtian wanted to rope in Zhang Xuan, he did not say it out loud.
After all, they had just met and were not familiar with each other. Furthermore, Zhang Xuan was obviously wary of him. This matter could not be rushed.
As the sect master of Mount Song Sect, Yun Zhongtian had seen too many people and naturally understood Zhang Xuan's thoughts.
Next, Yun Zhongtian did not probe Zhang Xuan's identity. Instead, he chatted with him about the Great Zhou Empire's pugilistic world.
With Yun Zhongtian's status, he still had quite a bit of influence in the Great Zhou Empire's martial arts world. He was rather familiar with the situation of the various sects and factions.
When it came to the topic of sects in the pugilistic world, Zhang Xuan was clearly in high spirits and would ask a few questions from time to time.
He had traveled extensively in the escort agency. Although he had some understanding of the major sects, he was clearly not as well-informed compared to Yun Zhongtian.
The two of them chatted quite well. After half a day of traveling, the group arrived at Anyang City.
"Brother, farewell. If you need help, come to Mount Song Sect to look for me at any time."
Yun Zhongtian greeted Zhang Xuan politely with cupped fists.
"Sect Master Yun is very considerate."
Zhang Xuan nodded with a smile, and his impression of Yun Zhongtian improved.
Although he knew that Yun Zhongtian was so warm and polite to him because of his Connate Realm cultivation, it was still very difficult to make the sect master personally lower his pride.
After all, anyone who could become a sect master was powerful and proud.
Who would be willing to lower themselves to befriend a stranger?
After bidding farewell to Yun Zhongtian and the others, Zhang Xuan drove the carriage into Anyang City.
"Things have changed!"
Looking at the familiar city, familiar scenes flashed past Zhang Xuan's eyes.
It was also because of the item he had delivered to the Mount Song Sect that he had unintentionally obtained the top secret manual of the Mount Song Sect, "Connate Technique", allowing him to break through to the Connate realm.
Zhang Xuan sighed in his heart and quickly suppressed all kinds of thoughts. He stayed in a guest room in the city.
Zhang Xuan was here for one of the medicinal ingredients in the Immortal Ascension Pill formula, so he did not waste any time. After putting his luggage in the guest room, he brought the little leopard into the mountains outside Anyang City.
They searched the mountain for several hours but they did not find the herbs needed for the Immortal Ascension Pill like last time in Fengming City.
On the way back, he found a medicinal herb that was similar to the one in the pill formula. However, after studying it for a while, it was not the same.
However, Zhang Xuan was not too disappointed. After all, the medicinal herbs needed for the Immortal Ascension Pill were very rare and could only be chanced upon by luck.
Moreover, what Zhang Xuan did not lack the most was time. With his endless lifespan, he was not in a hurry at all. He could take his time to search.
Of course, Zhang Xuan still hoped to gather all the ingredients for the Immortal Ascension Pill as soon as possible. Then, he could personally refine the Immortal Ascension Pill.
Zhang Xuan had just returned from the mountains when he received an invitation.
"An invitation from the Mount Song Sect?"
Zhang Xuan raised his eyebrows as surprise flashed across his eyes.
When he came with Yun Zhongtian previously, he didn't hear him mention it. He actually sent someone to send an invitation when he arrived in Anyang City. What was the meaning of this?
