As Uncle White's robe flew in the cold wind, he sent a chill through others with an indifferent look on his face.
He ignored the people who were shouting in shock beside him and fixed his eyes straightly on the two persons who stood on the top of the building. When he glanced at Ming Qingyu, the look in his eyes turned even colder, which made the people close to him shudder.
Most of the cultivators were staring at Uncle White in astonishment while guessing who this old man was.
Ming Qingyu and Nangong Li obviously recognized Uncle White because the moment they saw the latter, the look on their faces changed right away. Then they both walked down the building.
"Welcome, Uncle White. What brings you here?" Nangong Li bowed to Uncle White slightly with a reverent look. Although he asked that question, he was almost sure that Uncle White must have come for that boy. Even so, Nangong Li still managed to keep his countenance.
"I'm here to draw lots for my young master. Mr. Nangong, you can spare the formalities." Uncle White spoke in a cold and clear voice and his eyes with seemingly blurred vision actually showed a hint of sophistication from time to time. Now he took a look at the few staffers of the Green Nether Union down there.
Uncle White's words confirmed Nangong Li's assumption.
Thinking of what happened a few days ago, Nangong Li couldn't help but shiver with fear, thinking, 'Luckily the mistake those staffers have made isn't that big, otherwise even I couldn't defend them."
"That's fine. I'd like to know that young master's name. Then I'll send someone to have a check."
Nangong Li didn't feel awkward about Uncle White's indifferent tone. It seemed that he had known well the old man's character. Therefore Nangong Li still smiled politely and answered that.
"The last name of my young master is Feng, and his first name is Xi."
Hearing those words, the staffer beside the fifth table on the left suddenly got dazed because he felt that he had seen that name before.
As he thought of that, he started to leaf through the application forms in his hands. At last, he found Feng Xi's name on the last column of the last form. Under Feng Xi's name was the introduction to him, which stated that this nineteen-year-old boy was in the fifth grade of the Heaven King realm. Seeing the introduction, the staffer was surprised to find that Feng Xi was actually an exceptional cultivator just like his leader, Ming Qingyu.
The staffer did have suspected whether the information was true, but now as he witnessed how respectful Nangong Li was toward the old man, he suddenly got nervous. Moreover, the people around him all had the same feeling as him with the looks in their eyes getting dazed. They even thought that they must have delusions right now because no one could believe the great president would show so much reverence for an old servant of that boy, not to mention how polite he sounded. They felt that they actually knew too little about the president of the Union.
A few days ago when lots of the people there witnessed that boy make a stir in the Green Nether Union, they had assumed that the boy's identity might be special. However, it never occurred to them that Nangong Li would behave so gingerly right now because he was afraid that any words he said or anything he did would offend the old man, who claimed to be the boy's servant.
While everyone else was still in doubt, Ming Qingyu whose face had been sullen all the time did something which confirmed those people's assumption– The identity of the boy and this old man must be rather special!
"It's an honor to meet you, Uncle White!" Ming Qingyu repressed his inner feelings and stepped forward while bowing to Uncle White.
Hearing a proud man like Ming Qingyu speaking to the old man in reverence, the others got even more curious about Uncle White's identity.
