Yan Shuntao then invited Zhao Xuanqi and his companion into the house, instructing the butler to brew some fine tea. Throughout this, Ning Dao'an stayed by Yan Shuntao's side, always maintaining a distance of five steps.
"Mr. Yan, I haven't introduced him yet. This is Zhao Xuanqi. He's from the south," Yang Zhongliang said to Yan Shuntao.
"Mr. Zhao, to be so young and yet possess such extraordinary strength... It is truly admirable," Yan Shuntao said, his gaze turning to Zhao Xuanqi with a note of admiration.
"You flatter me, Mr. Yan. I hope to be in your good graces while I'm in Jinmen," Zhao Xuanqi said to Yan Shuntao.
"Not at all, you're too kind. Having an expert like Mr. Zhao join us would be a great fortune for the Zhen Nan Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Zhao, I know Martial Arts Experts tend to be candid and straightforward, so I won't beat around the bush."
