Chapter 2132: This boy has such talent?
Inside the room, the woman in purple skirt walked gracefully to the middle-aged man, bent down, put her cherry lips close to the middle-aged man's ear, and whispered in a firm tone.
"Sir, the reason why the beastmen suddenly retreated this time was all because of a man named Xu Jie."
"Oh?"
The middle-aged man was stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself, would the beastman choose to retreat because of one person?
This was really unbelievable. His brows knitted slightly, as if he had a little doubt about what the purple-dressed woman said.
The woman in the purple dress didn't seem to notice the middle-aged man's doubts, and she continued.
"This man's name is Xu Jie. Since he is the third child in the family, everyone affectionately calls him Third Brother."
Having said this, the woman in the purple dress paused for a moment, and then continued in a slightly mysterious tone.
"According to rumors, when Xu Jie was born, a strange phenomenon occurred in the sky. Purple air came from the east, stretching for 30,000 miles, like a giant purple dragon across the sky. At the same time, lotus flowers bloomed all over the sky, as if cheering for his birth. What's even more surprising is that the ancient sages actually showed their shadows and stood in the sky, as if witnessing this historic moment. Between heaven and earth, sweet rain fell, nourishing all things, as if it was a gift from heaven to Xu Jie. Not only that, the origin of heaven seemed to be inspired, and sent down a mysterious power to cleanse Xu Jie's bones and marrow, giving him extraordinary talents and potential..."
The woman in the purple dress was speaking vividly, when suddenly the middle-aged man interrupted her abruptly with a very strange expression on his face. He stared at the woman in the purple dress with wide eyes and said.
"Wait, are you telling me a story? Or are you making it up? What about purple air coming from the east for 30,000 miles, lotus flowers blooming all over the sky, shadows of ancient sages, and the origin of heaven sending down sweet rain to cleanse his bones and marrow? Why don't you say he is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal or Buddha?"
Seeing the middle-aged man's face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it, the woman in the purple skirt felt nervous and trembled all over. She immediately knelt on the ground with a "thump" and kowtowed repeatedly to assure him: "My lord, please understand! How dare I talk nonsense? This is all the information I have obtained with great difficulty!"
Her voice was full of fear and flattery, as if she was afraid that the middle-aged man would take her life if he was unhappy.
"That Xu Jie is not ordinary."
The woman in the purple dress calmed herself down and continued.
"When he was born, a strange sight fell from the sky. This is a rare auspicious sign that only appears once in a hundred years. Moreover, it is said that he could kill a tiger when he was one month old, kill a dragon when he was three months old, and had already embarked on the path of cultivation when he was six months old. My lord, think about it, isn't this the appearance of a demon?"
The woman in purple skirt became more and more excited as she spoke, as if she had witnessed all of Xu Jie's feats with her own eyes.
"In my humble opinion, the beastmen must be aware of the child's extraordinary talent and how terrifying he will be when he grows up. That's why they are hesitant and choose to retreat on their own initiative, hoping to establish a good relationship with him."
The purple-dressed woman's words were so logical that people couldn't help but trust her a little.
Moreover, she looked so confident that she didn't seem to be lying.
After hearing what the woman in purple dress said, the middle-aged man's expression eased a little, but he still had some doubts in his heart.
After all, such a thing is really too unbelievable.
However, the next words from the woman in purple skirt completely shook the middle-aged man's heart.
"Sir, there is one more thing you must not forget. Xu Jie is the hope of the entire human race."
The woman in the purple dress said quickly.
"If there really is such a talented monster in Daoyi Immortal Sect, the entire human race will be excited. Although the beast race is powerful, they have to be wary of the entire human race."
The words of the woman in purple skirt made the middle-aged man fall into deep thought.
Indeed, if Xu Jie is really as powerful as she said, then it makes sense for the Beastmen to choose to retreat.
Moreover, this is undoubtedly a great thing for the Daoyi Immortal Sect and the entire human race.
It goes without saying that the value of a genius and evildoer is so great that it is reasonable for the strong among the human race to come forward to protect him.
The middle-aged man sat on a chair, his chin supported by his right hand, his left hand on the armrest, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was thinking about something important.
The woman in the purple skirt knelt on her knees, leaning forward slightly, with her hands on her knees and her head lowered, looking very respectful.
Time passed minute by minute, and the room was unusually quiet, with only the occasional sound of light breathing.
After a long while, the middle-aged man finally slowly opened his eyes and broke the silence.
"Okay." His voice was low and steady.
"I will report this matter truthfully. If what you said is true, you will certainly be rewarded."
Upon hearing this, the woman in purple skirt kowtowed and thanked him as if she had been pardoned.
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
There was a hint of joy in her voice that was hard to conceal, and it was obvious that a big stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.
After getting the middle-aged man's promise, the woman in purple dress did not stay any longer. She quickly stood up, saluted the middle-aged man, and then turned and left.
Her steps were light and quick, as if she was afraid that something might happen if she stayed a little longer.
However, neither the middle-aged man nor the woman in purple dress realized that Ye Changqing had heard their conversation clearly.
Ye Changqing hid in the dark and heard the conversation between the two people clearly.
Looking at the figure of the woman in purple skirt walking away, Ye Changqing's expression became a little strange, and he couldn't help muttering to himself.
"When did Xu Jie become a demon? Isn't this nonsense?"
Ye Changqing knew very well that Xu Jie's cultivation level in Daoyi Sect was not high, and could even be said to be one of the lowest.
The woman in the purple dress was obviously completely fooled, and was fooled to the point of being dizzy.
However, Ye Changqing did not take this matter to heart. He was more concerned about the identity of the woman in purple dress.
From her conversation with the middle-aged man, we can learn that she is actually from the City Lord's Mansion. Then, why do the people from the City Lord's Mansion want to investigate the Daoyi Immortal Sect?
Ye Changqing frowned slightly, and he decided to continue observing secretly to see what secrets were hidden in it.
...........................
An hour later, Li Hongyan's doubtful voice was heard in a secret room in the City Lord's Mansion.
"This boy has such talent? Where did the Daoyi Immortal Sect find such a seedling?"
