Seeing the arrival of the clan leader, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the young man.
It must be said that after the clan leader inherited the bloodline of the Blue Silver Emperor, his appearance was very outstanding, which added a lot of points to him. After a slight surprise, the other party smiled and raised his hand to signal the clan leader to sit down.
As the saying goes, you should not hit a smiling person. The clan leader is naturally very kind to kind people. He nodded immediately as a greeting, and the two of them stopped talking. After
a while, the clan leader became a little impatient.
Looking at the tea set, tea leaves, and the soul guide kettle on the wooden table, after a little thought.
The clan leader injected soul power into the soul guide kettle, and the clear water inside instantly boiled.
In his previous life on Blue Star, the clan leader worked in tea art.
Under a set of smooth operations. After a while, a pot of hot tea was brewed. The fragrance of tea filled the room.
Glancing at the young man who was checking official documents in front of him, the clan leader handed the teacup to him and poured him a cup of tea.
The clan leader smiled faintly and said, "Please."
The young man was stunned, and after a slight hesitation, he nodded, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Tea is a bit bitter, but it will be much better if you drink it the right way. Suck the tea into your mouth, don't swallow it, swirl it around with the tip of your tongue two or three times, circulate it, and savor the taste of the tea. You will find that it tastes sweet." The clan leader looked at the young man and smiled faintly.
As he spoke, the clan leader took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and demonstrated for him.
Seeing the clan leader's intoxicated look, the young man followed suit and took a sip. In an instant, an unprecedented sweetness stimulated his taste buds.
The young man's eyes lit up. "It's truly memorable."
The clan leader said, "Of course."
The young man was clearly interested in the clan leader
. With a faint smile, he said, "I didn't realize you, young as he is, knew tea art." "Not really, but I was an apprentice for a few years when I was struggling to make ends meet!" The clan leader waved his hand.
The young man, somewhat surprised, said, "I see spirit power fluctuations in you. What made you want to be an apprentice?"
The clan leader was stunned, and accidentally blurted out his true feelings, finally realizing his ever-present trickery.
"Alas! Not everyone comes from wealthy families. In Douluo Continent, there are countless people like me who come from poor backgrounds. They've had to start trying to make a living at the age of three or four.
I was just lucky enough to awaken my spirit power. If no one had awakened my martial spirit for me, I'd probably be working as a waiter in a teahouse right now."
The clan leader's words were half true, half false. It was true that he came from a poor family, but Old Tom took good care of him, never letting the young clansman do farm work, let alone work for others.
As for awakening his martial spirit, it was indeed a good thing. If he were born ten thousand years later, when no one could help him awaken his martial spirit for free, he would still be a poor boy.
A look of surprise flashed in the young man's eyes. Those who could enter Yuexuan were all descendants of nobles in the Tiandou Empire. It was indeed surprising that a clansman of commoner origin could enter here.
The young man smiled calmly and asked, "Do you know your name, little brother?"
Just as the clansman was about to answer, there was a knock on the door.
The young man said calmly, "Come in."
The maid who had led the clan leader in earlier was stunned upon seeing the young man, then bowed. "My apologies, Your Highness. This young man is a guest invited by the Madam. I was negligent and didn't realize Your Highness was here. Please forgive me."
The young man waved his hand, saying, "Get up! Ignorance is not a crime, and I also find this young man quite interesting."
Upon hearing this, the clan leader frowned slightly. It seemed that the person who had been chatting with him for so long was Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Qian Renxue, daughter of Qian Xunji, the former Pope of the Spirit Hall.
Although the clan leader had loved Qian Renxue in his previous life, he also didn't like being stared at by the two Titled Douluo behind her all day. It seemed that the best strategy was to flee.
After a moment's thought, the clan leader said respectfully, "I am the clan leader. I didn't realize that Your Highness was here. Please forgive me. Since this Xuan Master wanted to see me, I will take my leave."

After saying that! The clan leader was about to get up and leave.
Xue Qinghe's eyes flashed with suspicion when he noticed the change in the clan leader's attitude, and he said, "Qinghe is also going to pick up my sister Xue Ke, we can go together."
The clan leader said, "It would be disrespectful to refuse."
Just like that, the clan leader and Xue Qinghe left the reception room under the guidance of the maid.
Xue Qinghe said indifferently, "I wonder what brings you to Yuexuan?"
The clan leader shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I also came here after receiving the invitation from the owner of the pavilion, and I don't know what it is."
"Oh?" Xue Qinghe became even more interested. He stopped and turned to look at the clan leader with interest, "Qinghe is a few years older than you, clan brothers. Just call me Brother Xue!"
"He" knew that the owner of Yuexuan was not a simple person. The fact that the clan leader was invited by the other party was itself an intriguing thing.
The clan leader did not expect the other party to approach so suddenly. The two faced each other, and the clan leader subconsciously took a few steps back.
Although Xue Qinghe appeared male, the clan leader knew he was a girl. He sensed a distinct feminine aura, and despite some attempts to mask it, it still lingered within his senses. Compared to Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, he seemed less immature and more mature.
The clan leader smiled and said, "In that case, I'll call you Brother Xue."
Upon seeing Xue Ke, the clan leader merely glanced at her before losing interest. He politely exchanged a greeting and, led by a maid, entered the fifth level. He saw no need to engage with this little, nymphomaniac, a minor character in the original novel.
Watching the clan leader depart, Xue Ke's eyes gleamed brightly as she turned to Xue Qinghe. "Royal brother, who was that little brother just now? He's so handsome."
Xue Qinghe smiled faintly and said, "He's a very interesting person."
At the same time, he thought to himself, "Is this the man that woman has been secretly following? Reaching Soul Sect at the age of thirteen—truly a genius. But his name is a bit provocative. If I could win him over to my side, that woman's expression would surely be quite remarkable."
The top floor of Yuexuan, the fifth, was a vast hall, even more elegantly decorated than the second. All the furnishings were made of agarwood, filling the entire floor with a faint fragrance.
The maid escorted the clan leader to the fifth-floor staircase and stopped, motioning for him to ascend on his own.
Approaching the hall, he gazed at the four doors leading to unknown destinations, and a wave of emotion welled up in his heart. These wealthy people truly knew how to enjoy themselves, even toying with elegance.
A somewhat cold voice suddenly rang out, "The top floor is my private space. No one can come up here without my permission. Please sit down."
The clan leader was startled and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw a mature and beautiful woman. "Is that you?"
