"What question?"

Lin Xiao's eyes landed on the dragon mark. There were already a lot of people gathering in front of the mansion, so his gaze didn't attract anyone's attention. He looked no different than any others who were admiring the gate and wished to be able to come in just to be able to watch the performance.

'That dragon mark seems real. It makes me recall the time when I'm inside the inheritance ground.'

'Huh?'

Lin Hu was inside Lin Xiao's consciousness, so naturally he was able to sense whatever Lin Xiao was sensing. His eyes narrowed when he saw the dragon mark in front of Lin Xiao. As a primordial beast, he knew very sure that the power behind the mark that Lin Xiao saw was completely different than what Lin Xiao guessed at first.

'It's not real dragon.'

'Really?'

'Brat, you have already seen me when I come out. How come you're still bad at recognizing which one is real dragon and which one is not?'

Lin Xiao: "…" you only appear for a short period of time. Besides, I have never seen your marking.

Lin Hu snorted when he saw Lin Xiao's appearance. His eyes landed on the mark at the gate once more. 'It's not real dragon, but it's just protection marking.'

'Protection marking?'

'When you have become more powerful, naturally I'll also grow. At that time, you'll be able to infuse your will into objects including marking if you wished to protect someone. This is called protection marking and it'll contain some parts of your power.'

The explanation sounded very far etched. For the current Lin Xiao, the most important thing he had to do was to train harder and harder so that he could grow stronger. The use of Qi that he knew so far was only to enhance his body and also some basic use that Foundation Establishment Cultivators had shown to him not long ago.

He never thought that Qi could be used this way. It must be really good.

'That says, a dragon protects this gate?'

'Used to protect this place will be more suitable. The marking is hundreds years' old and the power had diminished greatly. This kind of protection marking will use the power inside to protect the place whenever there's danger and based on the power that's left, it has been used a few times.'

Lin Hu shifted his body position within Lin Xiao's consciousness. 'There's less than 0.1 percent of the original power inside this marking. However, the power inside will be more than enough to eliminate Body Training Cultivator like you.'

Lin Xiao: "…" #$%^&*(!

He really wished to curse out loudly. Even if it was only 0.1 percent power, it was still more powerful than a cultivator like him? Just how powerful the person who created this marking before?

While Lin Xiao was pondering about this marking, the crowd suddenly let out slight scream and began to move to the side. His eyebrows arched as he glanced to the side. The sight of the people from the Street Performance told him that the ones they were waiting for had already arrived.

'Aren't they drunk just now?'

Looking at the energetic people from Street Performance Group, Lin Xiao was speechless. He was absolutely sure that they were drunk just a few minutes before. Did they have some kind of skill to erase their drunkenness?

He wanted to have that kind of skill too!

That way, he would be able to sneak and drink some wine or beer when the others were not looking. He was already beaten up when he tried to sneak drink some beer when he was young just because he was curious.

Sui Wenyan had changed her dress. She was now wearing light red brocade dress with her hair tied into two buns. Her countenance was also highlighted with makeup, making her already astounding beautiful face to become even more exquisite.

There were other women there, but Sui Wenyan was clearly the most beautiful one.

"So pretty…" Wenren Yu murmured.

Lin Yun glanced at the man beside him and shook his head. He was 100 percent sure that Wenren Yu would be defeated in one round if he tried to fight Sui Wenyan. Just from seeing her countenance, he had already turned absent minded. If he were to fight Sui Wenyan for real, who knew if he would suddenly be entranced in the middle of the fight?

What a hopeless case.

"Focus."

"Ah…"

Wenren Yu scratched the back of his head and lowered his gaze. Tinge of red could be seen at the edge of his ear.

Little did he know that Sui Wenyan was secretly watching his reaction. Seeing him blush, a smile was formed at the corner of her lips. This devastating look instantly killed the heart of so many men who were watching.

"Street Performance Group had come."

The door was opened and a young man stood there. He had the air of a young master and also polite smile on his face. However, the lust within his eyes when he looked at the female performer in the group couldn't be hidden completely.

"Welcome. My father has been waiting for you in the garden."

"Thank you for your hospitality," the leader of the group said in polite tone.

The young man nodded and then looked at the crowd. He furrowed his brows but he knew that his father always allowed these beggars to take a look. "You all may head to the backyard if you wish to watch."

Swish!

Without the need to wait for the young master to repeat his words, they all already run to the other side of the residence.

"Backyard?" Lin Xiao asked and looked at the other two.

Wenren Yu pointed to the residence. "Some rich people have special pavilion used to watch performance. It's located not far at the back and sometimes, they will open the gate in that place to allow others to watch just to flaunt their power."

Lin Xiao was speechless.
