Upon seeing this, Xu ZiYan smiled. He knew that him appearing here probably made the cooks a bit frightened, but this head chef was quite interesting. He clearly made his words seem as if he was letting out some anger, but in reality, he was just protecting his cooks.

Xu ZiYan waved his hand, gesturing for them to relax. "Don't worry, it's just that I am a bit hungry, so I wanted to make something to eat."

Hearing that, the beefy head chef felt happy. It was good as long as he didn't come looking for trouble. Also, if the Young Master liked the things they made, perhaps they could even get a reward.

"Do not hesitate to command us, Young Master. Whatever you want to eat, just open your mouth to tell us, and I guarantee that we will immediately make it." The beefy man patted his chest so loudly it sounded like thunder. It even made the top of Xu ZiYan's head tingle.

Good god, this guy's voice was really not ordinary. Xu ZiYan was already a cultivator at the sixth layer of Qi Condensation Stage. Although he didn't prepare any defenses against the other, the fact how just the person's speaking voice alone made his eyesight go blurry was enough to prove this beefy man's abilities.

Xu ZiYan quickly ran a lap in his brain, but he, unfortunately, didn't find this person's figure in that group of future powerful cultivators. However, if this person's distinct voice were paired with that type of roaring martial arts, the lethality would for sure be amazing.

When he thought of that, Xu ZiYan couldn't help but rub his chin as he started pondering.

Back then, after Xu ZiYan entered the Liu Guang Sect, he hadn't even finished learning everything when Xu ZiRong washed the whole Xu family with blood. Other than those treasures that were long hidden, not even a single strand of hair was left for him.

Afterwards, Xu ZiYan struggled alone and cut off from any others in his path of cultivation, with many cases of life and death situations dotting his journey. Indeed, just the memories Xu ZiYan had looked through would make one's head feel numb from fright. It could be said that Xu ZiYan becoming one of Xuan Yu region's Four Honored persons in the future was an event that is inseparable from his own efforts.

However, this also gave the current Xu ZiYan some ideas.

If they were to judge their individual combat abilities, it was true that out of the Four Honored people, Xu ZiYan possessed the strongest combat power. But when considering their backing, whether it was Lin XiaoTian's Tianyu Sect or Mo ZiYuan's Moyu Long Court, they were both the most powerful groups in Xuan Yu region. Xu family that had completely declined couldn't even be compared.

Back then, it was due to Bai Hua's insistence that allowed Lin XianTian and Mo ZiYuan to reluctantly recognize Xu ZiYan's position. However, the Xu ZiYan now don't plan on becoming part of their group. Thus he naturally wanted to prepare for his own future.

Even if Xu family won't be wiped out, it was still a long cry from Tianyu Sect or Moyu Long Court. So, it was impossible for Xu family to protect Xu ZiYan and Xu ZiRong if they were to be pressured by these two great forces.

In exaggerated terms, if that situation really happened, Xu ZiYan couldn't guarantee whether or not Xu Xiao would surrender the two of them for the family's benefit. After all, in Xu Xiao's perspective, the family's interests were much more important than his sons.

In truth, Xu ZiYan put a lot of significance on the contents of that novel. Although he looked down on that man called Bai Hua, he had to admit that Bai Hua's luck was truly quite extraordinary. Not only could he safely escape from various dangerous threats, but practically all the people who opposed him had died.
