"How could it be him?"
"Dugu Qiubai!"
"It's actually the legendary Dugu Qiubai! He's a hermit who's been hidden for many years, an old monster!"
"Yes. Back in the day, the old master Dugu was a figure on the verge of becoming the Eastern King. He disappeared many years ago. Everyone thought he was dead."
"..."
The appearance of the old man caused quite a stir in the desolate forest, but his cloudy eyes showed no joy or sorrow. Instead, he smiled and stared at Nangong Bing.
Ordinarily, this matter had nothing to do with such an old survivor; it had no relevance. By logic, he shouldn't have stepped in.
A hidden master suddenly jumped into the fray. If he said he had no ulterior motives, Nangong Bing wouldn't believe it even if she died.
Not to mention Nangong Bing's high level of cultivation. Just the Demon Essence Seed inside her was enough to make people covet her.
If one were to obtain Nangong Bing's Demon Essence Seed, it would certainly be a treasure of great value.
