When I stopped licking, the lady panicked.

A moment later, Madam Tao came running back and said, "Young Master Xun, our host has arranged a private room to invite this young master for a drink. If you are not in a hurry to see Suxin, you may come along."

Xun Fu said, "Of course we should go together."

Lin Xuan stood up and followed Tao Mama upstairs with Xun Fu, arriving at the door of a private room.

"Please." Peach's mother bowed slightly, her posture completely changing as if she were a different person.

Moreover, Lin Xuan could clearly feel that there was very little noise on this floor. People walking on this floor walked very slowly and spoke very softly, not daring to make a loud noise at all. Compared with the situation downstairs, it was like night and day.

This atmosphere made Lin Xuan a little curious about Ouyang Chengdu.

What kind of person could make these wild bees and butterflies so obedient and docile?

"Okay." Xun Fu nodded and pushed open the door to enter.

Lin Xuan followed closely behind.

Inside the private room, all was quiet and peaceful. Outside, the lights were bright and the atmosphere was lively, while inside, the warm spring sun shone, and everything seemed to be coming back to life.

The private room was decorated in warm colors and had a faint woody scent. There was a screen facing the entrance, painted with landscapes, which seemed somewhat out of place with the atmosphere of this place for pleasure.

Through the screen, Lin Xuan saw a figure sitting at the table, sipping tea, seemingly watching Lin Xuan and his companion.

Lin Xuan frowned and tried to probe with his soul power, but found that the room was actually equipped with a soul-suppressing stone, so he could not use his soul power.

It seems that Ouyang Chengdu is a very knowledgeable person.

However, thinking about it, it makes sense. In a place that caters to all sorts of people, he comes into contact with thousands of people from all over the world, with different professions and schools of thought, so he naturally has a lot of experience.

"Please come and sit down, gentlemen," the person behind the screen said softly.

Lin Xuan and Xun Fu walked around the screen and met the owner of Wanxiang Tower.

He was very robust, but there was a hint of coquettishness in his eyes, and although his face was clean, it could not hide his age.

He is probably not a cultivator, therefore he ages faster than cultivators.

Lin Xuan estimated that he must be forty years old.

However, to be in this condition at over forty years old already surpasses most ordinary people.

But what shocked Lin Xuan the most was that someone like him, who had no cultivation, could actually run such a large Wanxiang Restaurant. If he didn't have some background or strength, he really couldn't do it.

Presumably, Ouyang Chengdu's methods are extraordinary.

After all, in the True Martial Continent, even if you have cultivation, you might not be able to afford such a large Wanxiang Tower, let alone someone without cultivation.

"You two must be Young Master Xun Fu and Young Master Lin Xuan, right?" Ouyang Chengdu said with a smile, his casual demeanor and the loose collar of his clothes making him look rather unappealing to Lin Xuan.

Moreover, when he smiles, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes are very obvious, but his extraordinary temperament completely makes up for the flaws in his skin.

What shocked Lin Xuan even more was that this was Lin Xuan's first time here, yet Ouyang Chengdu already knew Lin Xuan's identity.

"Master Ouyang, it's a pleasure to meet you," Lin Xuan said first.

Xun Fu came to his senses and said, "Yes, I am."

Presumably, Xun Fu was just intimidated by Ouyang Chengdu's aura.

Ouyang Chengdu's gaze swept over Lin Xuan, but he stared at Xun Fu for a long time.

"Have a seat," Ouyang Chengdu said.

Lin Xuan slowly sat down, while Xun Fu sat down somewhat flustered.

"Does Master Ouyang know me?" Lin Xuan asked.

Ouyang Chengdu smiled, personally poured tea for the two, and said, "The son of the Prince of Zhenbei, who in the world does not know you?"

Lin Xuan said, "That's too much. I, the son of the Prince of Zhenbei, am more like roasted meat, being roasted over a fire."

Ouyang Chengdu smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Lin is truly humorous; no wonder he was able to marry Miss Yun."

What seemed like praise was actually a way of telling Lin Xuan: I know all about you.

Ouyang Chengdu's information network is indeed extraordinary.

This further strengthened Lin Xuan's resolve to have Xun Fu capture him.

Lin Xuan looked at Xun Fu beside him and thought: Good brother, we really need you this time. This guy is really something.

"Lord Ouyang, let's get straight to the point. I've come to see you today because I want you to help me find out if anyone needs soul cultivation pills. I have plenty here," Lin Xuan said.

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Chengdu's expression paused slightly, and he said, "Young Master Lin just mentioned soul cultivation?"

"Yes." Lin Xuan nodded.

"Young Master Lin is truly knowledgeable. Even I, the owner of Wanxiang Pavilion, know very little about soul cultivation. It is truly admirable that Young Master Lin possesses soul cultivation pills," said Ouyang Chengdu.

Lin Xuan said, "It was just a lucky break."

Ouyang Chengdu smiled meaningfully and said, "Perhaps it has a bit of a fishy smell on it?"

Lin Xuan was startled: Could it be that he knows something?

He unconsciously clenched his fist.

Being told on their first meeting that the other party had leverage over him made it hard for Lin Xuan not to be wary.

Ouyang Chengdu took the initiative to show goodwill at this moment: "Young Master Lin, there is no need to panic. My Wanxianglou has always only done business and does not participate in disputes. We do not care how the goods were obtained, we only care about gold and silver."

Lin Xuan nodded, beginning to believe that Ouyang Chengdu definitely knew about Master Xiaoxiang.

But if he knows, does that mean that the people of the Minghun Sect also know?

"Um... I have to go see Suxin now. You two can continue your conversation." Xun Fu felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward, so he took his leave.

After Xun Fu left, Lin Xuan asked, "You know about Master Xiaoxiang, right?"

"We've been keeping an eye on him ever since he came to Qingzhou City," Ouyang Chengdu said.

Lin Xuan then asked, "So, you know what I did?"

"I know, but Young Master Lin need not panic. As I said, our Wanxianglou only does business and does not get involved in disputes," Ouyang Chengdu said.

That being said, it's really unpleasant to have someone hold a handle against you.

Unless, Lin Xuan's strength has become so great that he doesn't care about these things, even if the backer of Master Xiaoxiang came, he could kill him in one move.

"How much do you know about Master Xiaoxiang?" Lin Xuan asked.

"An elder of the Minghun Sect, and also a traitor to the Minghun Sect, so Young Master Lin has no need to panic about killing Master Xiaoxiang. After all, he deserved to die," Ouyang Chengdu said.

Lin Xuan was startled and said, "He's a defector from the Minghun Sect?"

"Yes." Ouyang Chengdu nodded.

Lin Xuan then asked, "Why did you defect?"

"have no idea."

"I don't know, or I can't say."

"Young Master Lin, it's better for both of us to stop here."

"That's true."

Lin Xuan wisely stopped asking questions.

However, according to Lin Xuan's speculation, since the Minghun Sect is also connected with the royal family, it means that Ouyang Chengdu's "I don't know" means "I can't say," and the reason he "can't say" is probably because of the people above him.
