Chapter 2085: Nine Stars City Truly Hides Dragons and Tigers

Helian Jing saw Tang Yichen step back, yet she didn’t care. Instead, the smile on her lips became deeper and more gentle, "May I know your name, sir?"

Tang Yichen had heard what Hua Yan said to Mo Weiran earlier, so he didn’t look directly into Helian Jing’s eyes. With a polite yet distant smile, he responded to her, "Tang Yichen."

Helian Jing nodded, "Mr. Tang, is it?"

Muttering softly while approaching Tang Yichen’s side, she circled him once, examining him from head to toe.

Seeing this, Tang Yichen felt somewhat uneasy, yet he simply stood still, letting Helian Jing scrutinize him.

After circling once, Helian Jing stopped, smiling at Tang Yichen, "Mr. Tang, why won’t you look at me?"

Tang Yichen smiled but said nothing.

Standing nearby, Hua Yan rolled her eyes and then spoke up, "Helian Jing, are you out of your mind? So many people in Nine Stars City, and you don’t mess with them. That’s my master’s friend. Dare to mess with him, and see what happens?"

As soon as Hua Yan spoke, Helian Jing’s movements paused.

A few seconds later, she withdrew from Tang Yichen’s side, uninterestedly, "You’re quite the buzzkill, woman."

Hua Yan ignored her, glanced at Gu Zhiqi lying on the bed, and finally turned her head to Aunt Meng, "Aunt Meng, may I go check on the Lord God’s condition?"

Upon Hua Yan’s words, Helian Jing also chimed in, "I’ll go too."

Aunt Meng nodded to the two of them, then took Hua Yan and Helian Jing to see Yan Qian.

Mo Weiran and Tang Yichen did not leave, just stood in the room where Gu Zhiqi was resting.

As Aunt Meng and the other two left, the two of them found a place to sit.

Mo Weiran leaned towards Tang Yichen, speaking softly, "Fourth Master, what’s wrong with the young lady?"

Now Mo Weiran is a Ninth Order expert.

Being called Fourth Master by Mo Weiran, Tang Yichen felt somewhat flattered, so he cleared his throat lightly, "You are a friend of Gu Xiaoxi, she calls me Brother Chen, if you’re willing, you can also call me Brother Chen."

Having a Ninth-order ancient martial artist call him Fourth Master was quite pressuring.

Hearing this, Mo Weiran also felt somewhat flattered.

However, Tang Yichen has always been his idol, to be specific, he admired anyone from the Ever Winning Army.

Thus, as soon as Tang Yichen spoke, Mo Weiran immediately followed suit, calling Tang Yichen, "Brother Chen."

Only after this did Tang Yichen answer Mo Weiran’s question, explaining the situation where Gu Zhiqi had performed divination and suffered a backlash.

"Suffer a backlash? Who’s the opponent? Are they strong?"

Tang Yichen shook his head, Gu Zhiqi did not introduce the opponent, and he didn’t know much about their identity.

However, it seemed he heard her call the opponent Yan Qianan, and Aunt Meng and Hua Yan referred to him as the Lord God.

Could it be, that the girl is the legendary Tenth Order expert?

Seeing Tang Yichen shake his head, Mo Weiran assumed Tang Yichen did not know either and didn’t ask further. Instead, he inquired about another issue, "Who is this Lord God they mentioned?"

Tang Yichen: "The name should be Yan Qianan, also the one who caused Gu Xiaoxi to suffer backlash. Other than that..."

At this point, Tang Yichen shrugged, indicating he didn’t know.

Mo Weiran’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, "To be able to cause Gu Xiaoxi to suffer backlash, the opponent must be formidable."

Tang Yichen nodded, "It should be, most likely."

After hearing this, Mo Weiran sat there, expressing his amazement, "This Nine Stars City... truly full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers."

Tang Yichen did not speak further.

Inwardly, he pondered: those who can appear beside Gu Xiaoxi, aren’t they indeed dragons and tigers themselves?
