Chapter 98 - 98: 98 Mysterious Elder

Jiang Xiaobai immediately realized that this old man must be the guard of the scripture archive.

Obviously, this old man had been staying here for a very long time, and judging from his manner, he must know a lot of things.

The only thing that made Jiang Xiaobai curious was, why would this old man plan to tell him about Ao Cangtian?

In the entire Dragon Valley, the name ‘Ao Cangtian’ was a taboo and could not be mentioned.

He was puzzled, but Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t resist such temptation.

“Elderly sir, what are you curious about me?” Jiang Xiaobai asked, sitting down.

“You are nothing more than a mortal, yet within a few days, you are able to draw Qi into your body. Such talent is beyond the imagination of common people. Even a reincarnated deity wouldn’t be so exaggerated.”

The old man looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a smile, and poured him a cup of tea: “Go ahead, what is the purpose of your coming to Dragon Valley?” Jiang Xiaobai was momentarily thrown for a loop.

Goodness, so his intention of calling him over was to ask this question!

What purpose could he have?

Could Jiang Xiaobai tell him that he had traversed from another world?

Absolutely not!

“Elderly sir, please do not joke. Even I don’t know what’s going on.” Jiang Xiaobai said with a bitter smile.

Indeed, to be honest, he really had no idea how he ended up in this world.

And when the old man heard this, his smile became even more intense.

If someone who didn’t know the situation saw it, they might think that the old man had some special interest in Jiang Xiaobai!

“Are you sure you have no other purposes?”

“Really, I don’t. Elderly sir, weren’t you going to tell me about Ao Cangtian?

How come…”

Before Jiang Xiaobai could finish his sentence, the old man advanced and grabbed his wrist, funneling a powerful spiritual force directly into his meridians.

Fortunately, Jiang Xiaobai always had his system for cover.

The system intervened, making it impossible for the old man to see through with his skills. For a moment, the old man’s face began to show a subtle

change.

“Sss…can it be that, you are indeed a mortal?”

The old man frowned, his expression changing continually. Meanwhile, the spiritual force probing in Jiang Xiaobai’s body was also moving ceaselessly.

In the end, after an all-round inspection, the old man did not find any abnormalities in Jiang Xiaobai.

“Elderly sir, as I have mentioned before, when I was captured by Princess Ao Yan, I was totally perplexed.” Jiang Xiaobai said helplessly.

“In that case, your talent in cultivation is indeed extraordinary, unprecedented and unsurpassed!”

A glint flashed in the old man’s eyes.

He had already examined Jiang Xiaobai and found no clue.

With his skills, the old man believed that Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t have hidden anything from him, so he dismissed all suspicions.

“You want to know about Ao Cangtian, right? I will tell you. But there is a condition.”

The old man’s astonished and puzzled expression disappeared, replaced by a more and more elusive smile.

Looking at such a smile, Jiang Xiaobai felt a chill to his scalp.

He suddenly felt that it had been a mistake to follow the old man into the courtyard.

“Ahem, Elderly sir, I suddenly remembered that Ao Cheng wants to drink with me. Why don’t we talk about this some other time?”

Jiang Xiaobai quickly coughed and tried to stand up to leave.

However, at this moment, an overwhelming aura descended. Jiang Xiaobai found himself sitting down uncontrollably.

At the same time, he realized that he couldn’t move at all. At this moment, he understood that even if he desired to break free using all his power, he couldn’t do it without revealing his cards.

Helplessly, all he could do was stare at the old man with wide open eyes.

“That brat Ao Cheng always calls me ‘grandpa’ when he sees me. Can’t you even show a bit of manners?” The old man said, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with a smile.

“Um… Grandpa, where did I do wrong, I will change

“No, you did very well!”

The old man said with a laugh, “My condition is also very simple. From now on you don’t need to go to Ao Minghai for cultivation, just follow me, I will make you a future that won’t lose to Ao Yan.

“What do you think about this advantage, aren’t you tempted?”

The old man in front of him put on a caring face, but no matter how Jiang Xiaobai looked at him, he just felt that this was a sly old man.

The kind that exploits others to the bone and always gets one over on people. “Can…l reject it?” Jiang Xiaobai asked tentatively.

The old man snorted disdainfully and shook his head: “No.”

“Then why the hell did you ask, isn’t this messing with me!”

Jiang Xiaobai immediately deflated, knowing he was trapped. He could only sit dejectedly in the chair.

Seeing this, the old man laughed heartily and stood up abruptly.

“Kid, don’t be ungrateful. There are many people in the Dragon Valley who want to become my disciple, but I don’t even spare them a glance.”

“Before you, the only person I wanted to accept as my disciple was Ao Yan.

However, I merely entertained the idea.”

“But as for you, I don’t have so much time to talk nonsense.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded helplessly: “Then, can we start discussing Ao Cangtian now?”

“Of course.

The old man said, revealing a cold smile on his face,” This matter is taboo and cannot be mentioned in the eyes of others in Dragon Valley, but it is nothing to me.”

“It’s just that little fellow Ao Yuanwu who doesn’t know the importance of this, that’s why such a thing happened!”

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned.

Who is Ao Yuanwu? Ao Yuanwu is the most powerful existence in Dragon Valley, yet such a powerful figure was referred to as a little fellow by this old man?

For a moment, he became deeply interested in the identity of the old man sitting across him.

“I’m not afraid to scare you. Ao Yuanwu was taught by me, hand in hand. As for

Ao Cangtian, he’s my most proud disciple in this life.”

As the old man spoke, his expression became somber.

The hunched old body and the aged face revealed an indescribable feeling of desolation.

“But then, such a thing happened, and I… was powerless…” The old man murmured softly.

Jiang Xiaobai swallowed, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

The little courtyard then fell into silence.

After a while, the old man looked at Jiang Xiaobai: “Before I tell you the events of back then, answer me, why do you want to know all this!”

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the old man. The curiosity in his heart and his current situation made him grit his teeth.

“Elderly sir, I don’t want to hide it from you, I want to use Ao Cangtian!”

“I believe Ao Cangtian has been wronged, so I want to investigate clearly. If possible, I will free him.”

“The purpose is only to deal with the Ancient Clan. In front of them, I have no power to fight back.”

“I just want to survive.”

After finishing all this in one breath, the old man slowly nodded his head.

“Your mind is good, but unfortunately, your heart is big but your vision is too small..”
