Exiting Xiao Chen's place, Nangong Yanran and Shen Taiyang headed back to Pill Tower, she remained deeply uneasy throughout the journey.
"Second Elder, who… exactly is he?"
If it were anyone else, claiming that the Five Decays of Heaven and Man were not a very serious issue, she would not have believed them.
However, with Xiao Chen, she found herself unable to question him.
It wasn't just because Xiao Chen had obtained full marks, but also because of his mysterious background and incomparable expertise in Alchemy Dao.
She believed that Xiao Chen was definitely not a nobody.
"Yanran, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but his identity is truly unspeakable, unspeakable!"
Shen Taiyang kept shaking his head as if he was discussing something taboo.
Hearing this, Nangong Yanran felt helpless but grew even more curious about Xiao Chen's identity.
