Hou Zi narrowed his eyes. A sharp cold glint suddenly appeared in the depth of his eyes. When he released his force of presence, the atmosphere in the entire room became tense. "Really? Why do I feel that you seemed to recognize me just now? I might be thinking too much then."
"You're thinking too much. I'm just a student. I don't have much interaction with the outside world so it's impossible for me to know you. As for Xia Jinyuan, he never mentioned you in front of me."
His force of presence not only caused the atmosphere to become tense, but there was also a chill in it. The Hou Zi now wasn't the person who came in at the start and spoke lazily and casually. He was the Third Master Hou of the underground world now.
In front of Third Master Hou, Ye Jian continued answering in a composed manner. There wasn't any tinge of fear in her expression or her gaze.
