Zhang Yan had just exchanged a round of words with that Old Daoist; all those below had heard it clearly, and one and all revealed an unconsciously tense and grim look.
Zhang Boyant glanced in the direction where that Old Daoist had departed, and sneered, "Master Huang Yu? I have never heard of this name before. It must be some senior expert from within the Ten Sects. If the Pavilion Master later steps forward to seek his aid, he will unavoidably owe him a karmic favor. His abacus is indeed clattering loudly."
The Dragon Carp Siren had originally been lying concealed beneath the river water. At this moment it raised its head and poked out of the surface, speaking out, "Master, what is there to fear? Beneath this Chengyuan Gorge is the Cheng River, and these waters lead straight to the East Sea. Master also knows this little one's skill in working with water; I can escort Master safely all the way out."
