The yellow-robed cultivator lowered his voice. "You know of Li Jian?"
"I do. One of the three great water bandits of Thousand Island Lake."
"That massive fortune Li Jian made at Hundred Reefs Cliff last time? It was all thanks to the 'Water-Splitting Needle' he refined..."
HISS...
The man's eyes widened in realization as he drew a sharp breath.
"So that's the famous Artifact Refiner, Elder Wang Zezhou!"
But according to the rumors, hadn't Wang Zezhou's lifespan already run out? The gray-robed cultivator couldn't make sense of it.
"Are you stupid?"
The yellow-robed cultivator looked at him as if he were an idiot.
"Look at Elder Wang. His face is ruddy, and he's full of vigor."
"Does he look like someone whose life is about to end?"
'Isn't it obvious he's here to dispel the rumors!'
"Alas, I've been fooled by rumors!"
The gray-robed cultivator slapped his thigh.
He was sick with regret.
'If I had known, I would have pushed my way up there to make a good impression!'
