After leaving Purple Cloud City, Xiao Yan and his teacher found an Inn in a nearby small town to stay in, preparing to participate in the upcoming Auction.
Giving control of his body back to Xiao Yan, Yao Chen spent the entire day thinking, but still couldn't figure out Chen Xiao's true purpose.
Perhaps, I really was just overthinking things.
Unable to find a reason, this matter could only be left unresolved.
"Little Yanzi."
"Teacher, have you thought it through?" Hearing Yao Chen's voice, Xiao Yan immediately responded.
"No, let's put that aside for now. Tell me about Chen Xiao's past, his experiences from childhood, his personality, background, and the people he usually interacts with. Just talk, say whatever comes to mind."
Yao Chen's voice was full of fatigue. Although he had always been with Xiao Yan, he wasn't aware of everything happening in the outside world.
Moreover, although he had awakened earlier than Xiao Yan expected, Chen Xiao was already in the Xiao Family when he woke up.
Yao Chen was clearly not himself today, so Xiao Yan didn't dare to ask too many questions. He immediately nodded and began to recount everything in detail.
"As for Chen Xiao, before the Oba Family was destroyed, I didn't have a very deep impression of him. He was quite a loner, and in the Xiao Family, he only got close to Cousin Xun Er. After all, Cousin Xun Er also came to the Xiao Family later, and she was often alone, which gave them some common ground."
"As for his background, it's even simpler. His mother died early, and his father was originally a Guard of the Xiao Family. He was quite honest and died in a conflict with the Oba Family, which is why he targeted the Oba Family. I only heard about these things from my father later."
"His personality isn't bad. He used to nod and greet me whenever he saw me, neither humble nor arrogant. The Xiao Family becoming the largest family in Wu Tan City is also because of him."
"Furthermore, before the Xiao Family had trouble, my father once told me privately that if the Xiao Family ever faced difficulty and had no other options, we could seek Chen Xiao's help. As long as it wasn't too excessive and within his capabilities, he would likely not refuse. This time, when the Xiao Family had trouble, the fact that so many direct descendants were saved seems to be because he warned my father, who then made preparations..."
Without any concealment, Xiao Yan told Yao Chen everything he knew.
He used to think he was a genius and quite intelligent, but today, listening to Yao Chen and Chen Xiao's conversation during the transaction, the subtle hints and every seemingly unintentional action were filled with Test. Only then did Xiao Yan realize how far he still had to go compared to these old foxes.
He was relatively fortunate to have Yao Chen helping him, who could devise the most suitable cultivation path for him and prevent him from being deceived by others.
Yao Chen nodded slightly in his heart, remaining silent for a long time. Finally, he completely let go of the urge to do something.
Because of Chen Xiao's intervention, he didn't personally witness Xun Er making a move as he did in the original timeline. But with his knowledge, he could still tell that Xun Er absolutely could not have come from a small family.
Her background was stronger, not weaker, than the Starfall Pavilion!
And Chen Xiao's close relationship with Xun Er was another point he had to consider.
"Little Yanzi, from now on, you need to work even harder. You can't place your hopes on others. Your father can only be saved by you. The favor he owed for growing up in the Xiao Family has long been repaid."
"You don't need to worry too much about the Burning Flame Art either. Since he was willing to trade information about the Heavenly Flame today, it means he and his friend are not that obsessed with Heavenly Flame. Moreover, he is well-informed. Let's settle things here at Jia Nan Academy first, then take a trip to the East Sea. If it's really as he said, perhaps we can trade a lot of useful information from him in the future."
Xiao Yan nodded heavily, "Teacher, I understand."
"That's good. While there's still time, refine more Elixirs to exchange for some Gold Coins. There should be many good things at the Purple Firmament Pavilion's Auction. My current state is too poor, I can't help you much. You'll have to rely on yourself."
Yao Chen's voice full of relief faded, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep, and there was no further movement.
Xiao Yan took a deep breath, immediately no longer hesitating. He locked the door and became busy day and night.
...
On the other side.
Chen Xiao was also not idle.
On him, Cai Lin rose and fell continuously, her movements agile and lithe, like a Fiery Steed.
After an unknown amount of time, the sudden downpour subsided. Cai Lin slowly leaned down, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Chen Xiao held her smooth, beautiful back. Unlike usual, he didn't immediately take the lead. During this halftime break, he spoke some intimate words.
Cai Lin responded vaguely, grabbing the large hand behind her and placing it in front, changing from leaning down to lying on her side.
Suddenly, she felt something extra on her hand.
Raising her hand, she immediately saw a Storage Ring on her slender ring finger.
Her consciousness seeped into it. Dou Ling Pill, Royal Extreme Pill, Qing Yuan Pill, and more – everything was there. The contents of this single Storage Ring were enough to hold several Auctions.
"When are you going to Central State?"
Knowing that Chen Xiao brought this back for the Snake-People Race, Cai Lin didn't feign modesty and refuse.
By now, they were intertwined, and politeness was no longer necessary.
"We'll leave after the Auction the day after tomorrow. The sooner Xian'er's matter is dealt with, the better. You rest and recuperate in Tagor. When I can truly establish a foothold in Central State, I'll come to pick you up."
Cai Lin was silent for a moment, her jade hand touching her Lower Abdomen, which was still smooth as before with no hint of a bulge. She nodded slightly.
She was very rational and knew what her most important task was at the moment.
"With Little Fairy Doctor accompanying you, I don't need to worry too much. Also, keep an eye on Zi Yan, don't let her cause trouble."
Chen Xiao nodded in agreement. He was currently at Peak Dou Huang, unable to advance further, and could enter seclusion at any time to attempt a breakthrough to Dou Zong.
However, breaking through to Dou Zong was not a small matter, and the time required would definitely not be finished in ten days or half a month, so he temporarily put this matter aside.
Although Zi Yan hadn't advanced again in the past year, her strength had also greatly improved. Within the Dou Huang realm, no one could threaten her.
Finally, there was Little Fairy Doctor. Once she successfully condensed the Poison Pill, Little Fairy Doctor's strength would experience a surge.
By then, even in the Central State, which was full of hidden talents, the trio's combination would not be bad. As long as they didn't court death, establishing themselves would not be a problem.
It was precisely because she knew this that Cai Lin wasn't overly worried.
Chen Xiao's palm gently stroked the beautiful face close to him. A light flashed between his fingers, and a round Elixir was taken out.
"Open your mouth."
"Dream on! I said there wouldn't be a second time!"
Chen Xiao chuckled, withdrawing his hand. The Elixir held between his fingers came into Cai Lin's view.
Realizing she had misunderstood Chen Xiao's meaning, Cai Lin's fair face immediately flushed with two rosy clouds, showing her charming embarrassment and adding a touch of allure.
"Mm..."
A soft murmur escaped her lips. Someone was being naughty during the halftime break.
Fortunately, this seemed to be just a warning, a small punishment.
Meeting Chen Xiao's gaze, Cai Lin's red lips parted slightly, allowing Chen Xiao to place the Elixir into her mouth. It melted into a warm current that flowed into her Lower Abdomen.
"What Elixir is this?"
Not feeling any effect from the Elixir, Cai Lin asked.
"Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill."
Hearing this, Cai Lin was slightly puzzled.
Chen Xiao had sent someone to Tagor to retrieve the formula for the Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill over a year ago. With her letter, even if the Four Great Elders were unwilling, they wouldn't dare say much.
However, after obtaining the Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill formula, although Chen Xiao had been collecting the corresponding medicinal ingredients, she hadn't seen him ask anyone to refine it.
Moreover, there were no Seventh Grade Alchemists in the Black-Corner Region.
Could it be that he secretly contacted the Cao Family again?
Cai Lin was very confused but didn't press for details.
"After taking this Elixir, do you feel anything?"
Chen Xiao released his Soul Power, carefully sensing the changes within Cai Lin's body.
But strangely, he didn't detect any change in Cai Lin caused by the Elixir.
Seeing Chen Xiao's surprised expression, Cai Lin's lips curved slightly, her eyes holding a hint of playful annoyance as she gave him a charming glare.
The Heaven Soul Blood Fusion Pill was specifically created to nourish the fetus in the womb and stimulate its potential. Its medicinal properties were like spring rain nourishing plants, gentle and mild, so the effect naturally wouldn't be immediate.
"It feels good. My spirits are even higher."
Cai Lin's lips curved into a meaningful shallow smile. With a flicker in her eyes, she silently began the second half.
Inside Little Fairy Doctor's pavilion.
Zi Yan's frequency of visiting here had been rising steadily, like a spring vine climbing a wall.
She used to be very clingy to Cai Lin and Chen Xiao, but over the past year, the time those two spent playing with her had become less and less.
Once, Zi Yan, as usual, ignored the Barrier surrounding the room and went straight through the wall, only to stumble upon a scene that children shouldn't see. That shocking image was imprinted in Zi Yan's mind like a brand. Since then, she never dared to barge in recklessly again.
"Sister Xian'er, Chen Xiao said he's taking me back to Jia Nan Academy tomorrow to say goodbye to Old Man Su. Do you want to come?"
"No, the Auction is set for the day after tomorrow. Cai Lin and I will stay to help arrange things. After all, once we go to Central State, Purple Firmament Pavilion can only be left to the Ice Emperor, and we can't continue selling information." Little Fairy Doctor replied gently.
She also knew Su Qian, but wasn't very familiar with him, so there was no need to make an extra trip.
Zi Yan nodded slightly, not insisting.
...
The next day, as the morning sun rose.
Chen Xiao took Zi Yan and headed straight for Jia Nan Academy.
Su Qian had received their message in advance and was waiting in his study early.
"Grand Elder."
"Old Man Su."
Hearing the familiar address, Su Qian looked up, his face full of smiles.
Since the destruction of Demon Flame Valley, the casualty rate of Jia Nan Academy students venturing out had plummeted.
Coupled with the school-enterprise cooperation with Purple Firmament Pavilion, many students who didn't know where to go after graduation also had a destination. This put Su Qian in a great mood.
Currently, the only thing he was relatively worried about in the Inner Academy was the ticking time bomb in the Sky Burning Qi Refining Tower.
"It looks like you're planning to leave the Northwest?"
"Yes, we'll leave after the Auction tomorrow. We specifically came to say goodbye to the Grand Elder. We won't be coming back to the academy then." Chen Xiao nodded.
Su Qian nodded slightly: "Go. The Northwest Continent is still too limiting for you. It's not a bad thing for young people to go out and explore more. In fact, your decision to leave now is much later than I expected. With you looking after Zi Yan, I'm also more at ease."
"Old Man Su, that's prejudice! I haven't caused any trouble in the past two years!"
Zi Yan pouted slightly, greatly dissatisfied with Su Qian's prejudice.
"Heh heh, you've been guarding the Purple Firmament Pavilion's treasury for the past two years, you have more than enough to eat, of course you wouldn't cause trouble. But once you get to Central State, when you advance to Dou Zong, the consumption of resources will go up a notch. At that time, with no one supervising you, do you think you can resist when you see good things?"
Su Qian chuckled, knowing Zi Yan's personality like the back of his hand.
Hearing this, Zi Yan couldn't refute.
Clearly, the Little Dragon Person had some self-awareness.
After chatting for half an hour, Chen Xiao finally brought up the main topic.
"Grand Elder, have you found that secret art to conceal bloodline?"
"What secret art?" Zi Yan looked over curiously.
"It's for you. Your true form is extraordinary, and your clan's strength is certainly not small. But the larger the clan, the more prone to chaos it is. There might be factions within it that are hostile to your branch. If those people discover you, it could be dangerous. So, just in case, the Grand Elder and I have been continuously searching for secret arts that can conceal your bloodline over the past year. While I've found some, I feel they aren't perfect."
Chen Xiao explained.
He was very clear about the situation of the Void Ancient Dragon race.
Although in the original timeline, it was Eastern Dragon Island that first sensed Zi Yan's bloodline and brought her back to Sky Island, now that they were going to Central State so much earlier, no one could guarantee that things would unfold as they did in the original timeline.
Therefore, it was better to be fully prepared in advance, just in case.
Once they reached Central State, they could then find a way for Zi Yan to get in touch with Eastern Dragon Island. This would be much safer.
After listening to Chen Xiao's explanation, Zi Yan grumbled, "I don't care about the clan at all."
Though she said that, she didn't object, and the corners of her mouth secretly curved upwards.
It was clear that Chen Xiao's thoughtful consideration made her very happy.
Su Qian nodded slightly and said, "I've found two here. See which one you think is better. According to the records, the first one has a good effect, but after using it, Zi Yan won't be able to use her strength for half a year..."
"The second one! The second one! I choose the second one!"
Before Su Qian finished speaking, Zi Yan had already made her choice.
Making her a little cripple for half a year would be more unbearable than killing her.
Chen Xiao couldn't help but laugh, "Listen to her."
Su Qian also nodded helplessly and continued, "The second type can be considered a kind of seal. It requires using Magical Beast blood as ink. The higher the level of the Magical Beast blood, the better the effect. After it's applied, Zi Yan's bloodline will be concealed. When others sense her, her aura will become that of the Magical Beast whose blood was used."
"This Blood Seal is relatively fragile. Once Zi Yan uses her strength, she can break it at any time, and it will need to be sealed again afterward."
Saying this, Su Qian took out a scroll and handed it to Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao opened it and read through it. It was indeed more perfect than the ones he had collected from the Black-Corner Region.
"Let's use this one. Although the Magical Beast Essence Blood collected by Purple Firmament Pavilion over the past two years has been used up, there's plenty of ordinary blood."
Zi Yan took the scroll and read it through. She was also quite satisfied.
The only thing that made her frown was that this Blood Seal required using that Magical Beast blood as ink to draw Rune Seals on her body. This made her feel a little resistant.
After all, having been with Chen Xiao for so long, she was now deeply influenced and had become very clean, unlike before when she would often chew on medicinal herbs and get saliva all over her hands.
"Look closely. After those bloods form Rune Seals, they will seep under your surface skin and won't affect anything."
Chen Xiao knew her too well. Seeing her reaction, he immediately knew what she was thinking and reminded her.
Only then did Zi Yan look closely again. Soon, her face was full of smiles.
"Hehe, then no problem!"
With a solution found for Zi Yan's issue, Chen Xiao temporarily set the matter aside.
"Grand Elder, how is the Fallen Heart Flame doing recently?"
"It's been unusually quiet these past two years, but the more it is like this, the more worried I am. That beast already has sentience. It's likely accumulating strength. If it doesn't erupt, fine, but once it does, it will definitely be harder to suppress than before."
Chen Xiao nodded gently. From his memory, the Fallen Heart Flame was indeed planning this.
However, he hadn't influenced the Fallen Heart Flame. Looking at the original timeline, there should still be some time before the Fallen Heart Flame erupts.
"If there are signs of it erupting, Grand Elder, send a message to the Tagor Snake-People Race in the Jia Ma Empire at any time. Cai Lin will come to help when she receives the news. Also, the Cao Family in Central State's Pill Domain. After we reach Central State, we will definitely visit the Cao Family. They can contact me, and we'll rush back to help as soon as possible."
Chen Xiao had no particular ideas about the Fallen Heart Flame, nor did he think of letting Cao Ying take it into her possession.
After all, the Fallen Heart Flame ranked higher and was different from the Sea Heart Flame and Green Lotus Core Flame. For a little weakling like Cao Ying to rashly covet the Fallen Heart Flame would be very dangerous.
He had finally managed to trick a useful Alchemist, and he didn't want her to perish here.
The reason he remembered this matter was purely to help Grand Elder Su Qian solve this major concern.
Su Qian had been very good to Chen Xiao over the years, and Chen Xiao naturally didn't want the academy that Su Qian had painstakingly built to be destroyed by the Fallen Heart Flame.
"Don't worry, when I need you, this old man won't be polite," Su Qian replied with a smile.
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and chatted with Su Qian for a while longer before leaving Zi Yan behind and heading alone to the Senior Student Dormitory Area.
A quarter of an hour later, Chen Xiao found two people he was familiar with.
Cao Hui and Fu Tong.
These were two of the top five from the year Chen Xiao entered the Inner Academy, and they had a good relationship.
What surprised Chen Xiao was that after more than a year apart, these two were actually together romantically. No wonder they had taken leave from the Inner Academy together back then.
"I'll be heading to Central State in a few days and will visit the Cao Family. Do you need me to take a letter or anything back for you?"
After a brief catch-up, Chen Xiao didn't gossip about their story and asked.
Cao Hui scratched his head and chuckled, "Then wait a moment, I'll go write a letter. You can take it back to the Cao Family for me, and they'll make sure it gets to my parents."
Chen Xiao nodded.
In less than five minutes, Cao Hui hurried back and handed Chen Xiao a letter.
"To be honest, my dad was always against me coming to the Northwest. If I hadn't shown a little skill when I entered the Inner Academy and contributed to the family a few times, he probably would have wanted to beat me to death."
Chen Xiao was speechless but didn't say much.
Everyone has their own destiny. Having strict parents to guide you is also a blessing.
They didn't stay for too long before Zi Yan came looking for him.
Immediately, Chen Xiao didn't linger either. He said goodbye to the two of them and returned to Purple Cloud City with Zi Yan.
...
At night.
After several attempts, Chen Xiao finally used his Soul Power as a guide and Sixth Tier Magical Beast blood as ink to draw the Blood Seal rune for Zi Yan.
The moment the Blood Seal was completed, Chen Xiao instantly felt Zi Yan's aura change.
If he didn't look with his eyes and only used his senses, he would only feel a little calf in front of him.
The reason for this was that the Magical Beast blood used earlier came from a Sixth Tier Magical Beast, the Black Flame Kui Niu.
This Black Flame Kui Niu was the king of the Heavenly Yin Mountain Range until a little over a year ago when Yin Gu Lao invited Yuan Yi and hunted it down together.
After taking the Magic Core, Yin Gu Lao sent its essence blood along with the Black Flame Kui Niu's corpse to the Purple Firmament Pavilion as a gesture of goodwill.
"Alright, hurry up and put your clothes on. You can only see your toes when you look down, what's there to see?"
Seeing the Little Dragon Person looking curiously at the Magical Beast blood on her body seeping under her skin, Chen Xiao urged her.
Zi Yan in her Little Dragon Person state didn't arouse any desire in him.
Hearing Chen Xiao's teasing, Zi Yan glared at him. A surge of purple light pulsed, and she looked down from above at Chen Xiao, who was sitting on the chair, not treating him like an outsider at all.
Look into my eyes and say that again!
The bigger Zi Yan was smug. She didn't say anything, yet it felt like she said everything.
Chen Xiao took a deep breath, feeling annoyed.
"The Blood Seal I just drew!!!"
"Who told you to look down on me? Besides, I also wanted to test if I can really break through the Blood Seal at any time."
Zi Yan snorted and didn't continue to provoke Chen Xiao. She reverted back to her Little Dragon Person form in a flash of purple light.
Helplessly, Chen Xiao had to spend another quarter of an hour to redraw the Blood Seal for her.
"Cai Lin taught you for so long, and you didn't listen at all."
"Hmph, I'm not stupid. I know everything Sister Cai Lin said. Anyway, I won't do this in front of outsiders."
Zi Yan didn't care at all. She quickly took out a dress and put it on.
"Oh right, let me ask you something. Besides Sister Cai Lin, Sister Xian'er, and Sister Cao Ying, do I have any other sisters?"
"What do you mean?"
"Don't play dumb! Be careful, I'll tell Sister Cai Lin about you helping me draw the Blood Seal just now."
"And Xun Er."
Chen Xiao rolled his eyes at her and spoke frankly.
In front of this Little Dragon Person, Chen Xiao had always been relaxed and casual. On the Dou Qi Continent, only Zi Yan would often play around with him. Their relationship was different from anyone else.
"Sister Xun Er? I haven't seen her, but I remember she came to the Inner Academy to find you before."
"Yes, you'll have a chance to see her when we get to Central State."
Zi Yan nodded and walked towards Cai Lin's room with an arrogant stride.
These last few days, she also wanted to spend more time with Cai Lin.
In her heart, Cai Lin's position was also unique.
...
A new day.
On this day, the Purple Firmament Pavilion was exceptionally lively.
Because the long-awaited Auction was about to begin.
Chen Xiao and the Little Fairy Doctor stood on the roof, watching the surging crowd. As expected, they spotted a familiar Black Robe figure in the crowd.
Xiao Yan and his Teacher had indeed not missed it.
And this Auction at the Purple Firmament Pavilion did not disappoint the Teacher and disciple.
There were several Earth Rank Dou Skills that appeared at this Auction.
Especially the appearance of the Six Directions Roaming Body Ruler made Xiao Yan's breathing quicken. In the end, he spent five and a half million Gold Coins plus a pill formula to win it.
Chen Xiao led the women through the luxurious private box, observing the entire auction. Watching item after item being sold at high prices under Hai Bo Dong's direction, they were all quite pleased.
Especially the Beast Taming Art, obtained from the Beast Taming Sect, which pushed the atmosphere in the venue to a peak.
This was the foundation upon which the Beast Taming Sect had stood in the past. Acquiring it meant having the opportunity to establish a formidable power in the Black-Corner Region, just like the former Beast Taming Sect.
Such a valuable item naturally couldn't be auctioned off for Gold Coins. Bartering was the only option.
In the end, Yin Gu Lao gritted his teeth and took out nearly half of the Heavenly Yin Sect's collection to secure it.
As for whether this Beast Taming Art would cause bloodshed, that was not something Chen Xiao needed to worry about.
For him, he had already fully grasped the Beast Taming Art. Today was purely about clearing inventory.
Starting from sunrise until the afternoon, the auction finally concluded perfectly.
After selecting all the useful items, Chen Xiao divided the remaining large sum of Gold Coins and various miscellaneous items into two portions and gave them all to Cai Lin and Hai Bo Dong.
"Old Hai, from now on, Purple Firmament Pavilion is in your hands. Don't worry about expenses; just focus on improving the overall strength as much as possible. If you encounter any difficult trouble, you can contact the Grand Elder of the Inner Academy."
"Haha, don't worry. The obstacles in the Black-Corner Region have all been cleared by us. I'm also an Eight Star Dou Huang now. As long as no Dou Zong appears, no one can do anything to me. In three to five years at most, I'll carve out a territory for you in the Northwest!"
Hai Bo Dong laughed heartily.
With the strength of an Eight Star Dou Huang, plus cultivating several Earth Rank Dou Skills over the past few years, it was no exaggeration to say that the current Ice Emperor was virtually unrivaled among those in the Dou Huang realm in the Northwest region.
Even if he encountered an ordinary Dou Zong, he would dare to fight.
Chen Xiao smiled and nodded, having complete faith in Hai Bo Dong's words.
When it came to accumulating wealth and development, the Mitre Family was professional.
After chatting casually with Hai Bo Dong for half an hour, night had already fallen outside.
Chen Xiao glanced at the sky and immediately stopped hesitating, getting up to leave.
"Old Hai, take care. Bring people to take over the Black Emperor Sect tomorrow morning."
"Be careful in the Central State!"
Hai Bo Dong sighed softly, his expression uncharacteristically serious.
From meeting Chen Xiao and traveling together until now, he had reached his limit.
He didn't have any immediate plans for the grand stage of the Central State.
Recalling his experiences over the years, Hai Bo Dong felt a wave of emotion.
Chen Xiao nodded slightly and led everyone out of the Purple Firmament Pavilion.
At the spacious entrance of the Purple Firmament Pavilion, Shop Owner Yao of the Thousand Medicine Shop and Old Yan were already waiting.
Before leaving the Northwest Continent, Chen Xiao had one last small matter: taking these two with him was fulfilling a past promise.
"Old Hai, let's part ways here. We'll meet again."
"Old Man Hai, goodbye."
"Ice Emperor, farewell."
"..."
Zi Yan, Cai Lin, and Little Fairy Doctor also spoke up.
Hai Bo Dong cupped his fists and stood in place, watching them ascend into the air.
"Farewell, Pavilion Master!"
At the same moment, shouts from within Purple Cloud City soared into the sky.
Except for Hai Bo Dong, everyone belonging to the Purple Firmament Pavilion knelt on one knee to see them off.
Countless people living in the city heard the commotion and opened their doors and windows, gazing at the several figures in the sky.
Chen Xiao looked back one last time. This force, which he hadn't paid much attention to, seemed to have become an existence that many forces in the Black-Corner Region looked up to without him realizing it.
"Rise."
"The Black-Corner Region is too small. Purple Firmament Pavilion should not be limited to this. Everyone, cultivate well. I will establish my achievements in the Central State. May this glory include a part for you in the future."
Without further words, Chen Xiao raised his hand and gestured, then, taking those beside him, wrapped in the hazy moonlight, they shot off like arrows towards the distance, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.
Hai Bo Dong gazed for a long time before retracting his gaze.
Others might have doubts about Chen Xiao's words.
But he, as always, believed!
"The Central State is truly captivating..."
