The guards did not bother to take action and retreated to both sides, quickly making way for a wide open space.
Huang Yan was also a little flustered, but when she thought that Zhang Qi was ordered to protect their Alchemist Guild on the orders of the so-called Deacon Cui, she became interested again.
"I don't know what class the so-called deacon belongs to in the mystery, and what is his status?"
"Very high!"
Ye Chen, who was next to him, responded casually: "As far as I know, the status of deacon is only below that of the Lord of Mysteries!"
"how do you know?"
Huang Yan was startled.
"Because I have some understanding of some things inside Xuanji!"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly.
"But……"
Huang Yan still wanted to ask more questions, but before he finished speaking, a figure had already descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone in an airy manner.
He is a young man with a dull appearance, but his eyes are as sharp as a sword, as if he can penetrate into the depths of everyone's soul, making people afraid to look at him.
"Oh my god, he is actually an emperor-level expert?"
"With such a level of cultivation, I guess my status in Xuanji must be very high!"
"With the presence of an emperor-level powerhouse, I'm afraid the remnants of the Southern Alliance won't be able to escape!"
Everyone in the Alchemist Guild was extremely shocked.
Huang Yan was so frightened that she broke into a cold sweat, but when she glanced at him secretly, the look of doubt on her face became even stronger.
She really didn't know this Cui Yong, she had never even seen him.
But Zhang Qi, the guard commander just now, kept saying that he was ordered by him to protect the safety of their Alchemist Guild.
"I heard that some remnants of the Southern Alliance just broke into the Alchemist Guild?"
As soon as he landed on the ground, Cui Yong asked coldly.
As a result, before Zhang Qi could answer, he saw Ye Chen next to the desolate smoke. His majestic expression froze, and was immediately replaced by endless admiration and fear.
"Mr. Ye, it turns out you are here too. You are so blind that I almost didn't recognize you. I hope you can forgive me!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly ran to Ye Chen and bowed deeply to him, his attitude as respectful as if he were meeting an emperor.
For a moment, everyone around was dumbfounded.
Who is this Ye Chen?
How could Xuanji, a dignified emperor-level expert, be so respectful to him?
The most shocking thing was the smoke.
She had just given various reminders and hints to tell Ye Chen not to interfere, so as not to offend Xuanji's people.
I never expected that Cui Yong, the deacon who was second only to the Master within Xuanji, would be so respectful to Ye Chen. This is simply unbelievable!
"Sir, what on earth is going on?"
Surprised, Huang Yan sent a message and asked.
"I know him!"
Ye Chen replied via voice transmission, and immediately helped Cui Yong up, "You came just in time, I encountered some headaches, and Zhengchou doesn't know how to solve them!"
"Young master, if you have anything to do, just give me your orders. As long as I can do it, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
Cui Yong patted his chest again and vowed.
Ye Chen pointed at Jin Lin, who was also stunned, and said, "She is my friend!"
Just saying this, without even mentioning his name and origin, Cui Yong immediately turned around and bowed his hand to Jin Lin, "Cui Yong, I have met the girl!"
This scene once again shocked everyone.
Especially the mysterious guards like Zhang Qi were only a few inches away from fainting.
You know, they almost took action against Ye Chen just now.
If Cui Yongdu needed to be so respectful to Ye Chen, if they had really taken action just now, wouldn't they have offended a big shot without even knowing it?
"Listen to what I have to say first!"
Ye Chen waved his hand and said impatiently: "What I want to say is that this girl named Jinlin was indeed an envoy of the Southern Territory Alliance before, and she did not take the initiative to surrender to you, but she wanted to remain anonymous from now on.
I don’t want to get involved in the disputes in the Southern Territory anymore. I wanted to protect her from leaving just now, but Commander Zhang insisted on keeping her!"
"Is there such a thing?"
Cui Yong instantly became furious and turned to look at Zhang Qi, "You are so brave, you even dare to make things difficult for Mr. Ye's friends?"
"thump!"
Zhang Qi was so frightened that he fell to his knees and begged: "Deacon Cui, it's not that the villain is deliberately making things difficult, it's that the villain really doesn't know the relationship between Mr. Ye and you!"
"fart!"
Cui Yong was furious, "How can I reach Mr. Ye?
He and the Lord are close friends of life and death, and you actually want to take action against the young master?"
"ah?
Are you a life-and-death close friend of the Lord?"
Zhang Qi just barely managed to faint from fright.
Who is their master?
That is the supreme master of mystery!
The origin of his identity is a mystery. Except for a limited number of high-level figures such as Cui Yong, no one has seen his true face.
So much so that in the eyes of ordinary warriors like them, it was a god-like existence.
Never would I have thought that this seemingly gentle young man in front of me would actually be close friends of life and death with their supreme master of mysteries.
If they really dared to take action just now, wouldn't it be impossible to atone for their sins by death?
"Zhang Qi, you are really blind. Do you know why I ordered you to come here to protect the Alchemist Guild and the safety of President Huang Yan?"
Cui Yong hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel and said: "It is precisely because President Huang Yan is Mr. Ye's friend!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar!
"What?
The reason why Xuanji announced to the outside world that he wanted to protect our Alchemist Guild was because of Mr. Ye?"
“I really don’t know if I don’t tell you, but I’ll be shocked when I tell you!”
"Young Master Ye is actually life-and-death close friends with the master of mystery?"
"Oh my god, I saw him getting tired of being with the president before, and I was planning to secretly find an opportunity to teach him a lesson!"
…
For a moment, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Ye Chen.
But Huang Yan, who was still confused at first, finally woke up from a dream.
"So it's because of your relationship that Xuanji treats the Alchemist Guild so specially?"
She reached out and pinched Ye Chen's arm, and said with shame and anger: "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"I originally wanted to say something, but I kept getting interrupted and I didn't have the chance to speak clearly!"
Ye Chen smiled bitterly.
At this time, Jin Lin, who was originally stunned, suddenly seemed to realize something and looked over warily, "So you are also a mysterious person?"
"Do not misunderstand!"
Ye Chen shook his head, "As Butler Cui said, I am just friends with the master of Xuanji, but I am not a person of Xuanji!"
"Since you are on good terms with Xuanji, why did you protect me from leaving just now?"
Jin Lin's face was full of surprise.
"It's just a whim decision, does it need a reason?"
Ye Chen asked back.
What he actually wanted to say was that he protected Jin Lin from leaving, not only because the other party did not pose any threat to the mysterious organization, but also because what he said to the other party in the hall just now touched his heartstrings.
And this was also the reason why he came forward to protect the other party from leaving.
It's just that he generally doesn't want to expose the true portrayal of his heart.
