"Junior Brother Xu, you're back?" Sun Tao stood up with a smile.
Xu Yang hadn't returned for over a month, and Sun Tao had been worried he would hear news of Xu Yang's death in Cyan Yang City.
Xu Yang cupped his fists. "Greetings, Senior Brother Sun."
He then nodded to Jiang Fan and the others, acknowledging them.
"I heard you distinguished yourself at the Hundred Medicine Hall by killing Liu San, the head of the Iron Eagle Gang, and were rewarded by Steward Zhao. Congratulations are in order," Sun Tao said with a laugh.
Only then did Xu Yang realize that news of what had happened in Cyan Yang City had already reached the Purple Sun Sect.
Xu Yang shook his head. "It was just a stroke of luck. He thought I was only at the Qi Gathering Cultivation level and was caught off guard, allowing me to kill him with a surprise attack. Otherwise, I would have likely been the one left for dead at the Hundred Medicine Hall."
He did his best to conceal his true strength.
