Chapter 303: Jia Lao’s Strength
“Not qualified?”
Some shock surfaced on Jia Lao’s gentle old face. He immediately turned a strange gaze toward Xiao Yan. With Hai Bo Dong’s Dou Huang class strength, he actually said that he was not qualified to be this little fellow’s teacher? Did he really have such great potential?
Under the night sky, Nalan Yanran and the others could only speechlessly watch the laughing Hai Bo Dong. After they were dumbstruck for a while, they treated these words of Hai Bo Dong as a joke. In this Jia Ma Empire, if a Dou Huang were to release news that he wanted to accept disciples, there would be an unknown number of people with outstanding talent swarming over quickly to fight for the spot. Being able to become the disciple of a Dou Huang basically represented that one possessed the capability to become a strong person.
“Haha, Old Hai is just joking. Jia Lao, please don’t mind him. It’s just that the little me already has a teacher and naturally cannot switch to someone else so carelessly.” Xiao Yan shook his head as he said with a smile.
By his side, Hai Bo Dong was silent. Back then, despite having recovered his Dou Huang strength, Xiao Yan still gave him an extremely dangerous feeling. Later on, the terrifying level of the ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’ that Xiao Yan had displayed when fighting with the two mysterious Dou Huangs caused Hai Bo Dong’s fear of him to grow even more.
Although Xiao Yan’s current strength had appeared to have greatly declined since he displayed the ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’s power, within Hai Bo Dong’s heart, Xiao Yan was almost a strong person that was of his equal or even one that surpassed him. Therefore, when he heard Jia Lao ask if Xiao Yan was his disciple, he could not help but laugh involuntarily and reply in this manner.
Hearing this, Jia Lao smiled slighty. His gaze swept across Hai Bo Dong’s face without leaving any trace. His heart become increasingly shocked. With his knowledge of Hai Bo Dong, he naturally knew that the latter’s character would seldom joke in such a manner.
“Don’t tell me that what he said is the truth?” Jia Lao muttered softly in his heart and could not help but asked, “Young friend Yan Xiao, may I know the name of your teacher? Perhaps the old me is acquainted with him.”
“Haha, I’m sorry, Jia Lao. Before I came out, teacher had told me not to reveal his name since he likes to keep a low profile and has been living deep in the mountains all his life. I think that Jia Lao may have never heard of him.” Xiao Yan said apologetically.
“Ke ke, it doesn’t matter. There are many strong people who have unique characters. I have also met some strong people that live in isolation and know of their indifferent character.” Jia Lao smiled and shook his head. His heart still had some doubt regarding Xiao Yan’s words. Being able to let Hai Bo Dong say those words was a treatment that even Jia Lao himself had never received. Therefore, Yan Xiao’s teacher should be someone who was stronger than Hai Bo Dong or even himself...
Although the Jia Ma Empire was vast enough where it was not surprising for countless of strong people to live in isolation deep within the mountains, as the guardian of the empire’s imperial family, Jia Lao was able to borrow the empire’s ability and vaguely learn about some of the strong people that lived in isolation within the Jia Ma Empire. However, he had really never heard of any place where there was someone living in isolation who corresponded to the legendary class strong person that he had imagined.
