Chapitre 693: Three-Way Stand-Off

Noticing that Ye Xuan was not participating in the conversation, Yuelun walked over and asked, "Junior Brother Ye, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

"No," Ye Xuan replied with a wave of his hand, "Don't worry."

He simply was focused on something else. After the gathering, he had decided to enter secluded cultivation in order to reach the ancient realm. Following that, he would investigate the mysteries behind the strange power, while strengthening himself.

Although he had already become the strongest expert in the East continent, who knew if there were any experts stronger than him in the other continents?

There were many unknowns, and Ye Xuan would not delude himself into a false sense of self-confidence. 

Hearing his answer, Yuelun gave up on probing further. She just quietly stayed beside Ye Xuan and lowered her head in deep thought.
