C3191 Misunderstanding
The night was dark, and Yan Ruxin had finally arrived at midnight.
"Fellow Taoist Yang, I'm really sorry. It's all my fault today. I couldn't stop Yan Ruying!"
The moment they entered, Yan Ruxin apologized once again.
Yang Bo picked up his tea cup and didn't say anything.
After a long while, Yang Bo raised his head and asked: "Fellow Taoist Yan, I have always thought that our relationship is not bad. What's the meaning of you doing this?"
Yan Ruxin was shocked. He looked at Yang Bo and hurriedly explained, "Does Fellow Taoist Yang intend to keep a low profile?"
"Fellow Taoist Yang, since you're already here, is there any point in keeping a low profile?"
Yang Bo frowned. What Yan Ruyu said made a lot of sense. If he wanted to find Yan Ruyu and gain the Yan Clan's recognition, it would be impossible for him to keep a low profile.
However, Yang Bo hesitated for a moment. Then, he thought of the rumors and asked, "There was a rumor today saying that I was the illegitimate child of the Yan family's leader?"
"Does Fellow Taoist Yan know what's going on?"
Yan Ruxin looked at Yang Bo with a strange smile on his face. "Could it be that Fellow Taoist Yang has been brooding over this matter?"
"Fellow Taoist Yang, this is just a small matter. Since you've come to Binhai City, there will definitely be people who will find out!"
"Now that this matter has been spread out, it's only to add fuel to the fire!"
Yang Bo looked at the other party, "In other words, this is your doing?"
"Yan Fellow Taoist, I'm afraid you aren't clear about this, I am not your Patriarch's illegitimate son. This is impossible!"
Yan Ruxin felt embarrassed that Yang Bo had been exposed, so he quickly said, "Okay, okay, that's impossible!"
"Since Fellow Taoist Yang said it's impossible, then I'll help you clarify this matter tomorrow!"
Yang Bo was unfamiliar with this place, so he could only rely on Yan Ruxin to handle this matter. He nodded and said, "Next up, I'll have to trouble Fellow Taoist Yan!"
Yan Ruxin waved her hand. "This is just a small matter. Just a small matter!"
"Fellow Taoist Yang, be at ease and stay here for a few days. Next, someone will definitely pick you up and bring you to the island!"
"I still hope that Fellow Taoist Yang can help with this time's survival training!"
Yang Bo waved his hand, "I've already said it before, I'm not from the Yan family, how could I participate in the exam?"
Yan Ru Xin asked, "Since Fellow Taoist Yang isn't participating in the exam, how did you know about this?"
Yang Bo frowned and pointed outside, "Doesn't everyone in the city know about this?"
"This isn't a secret, is it?"
Yan Ru asked, "How is it not a secret?"
"I'm afraid Fellow Taoist Yang isn't sure. In this exam, all of the Yan Clan's young elites will participate!"
"The Yan Clan will definitely keep the location and content of the trial a secret. We cannot let any other power find out!"
Yang Bo nodded and immediately understood this point, because this was to guard against the enemy taking the opportunity to attack the Yan Clan's younger generation, so it was necessary to keep this a secret!
It was just that the job of keeping the secret was not done well, so why did all the people on the streets and alleyways know about it?
Yan Ruxin patted Yang Bo's shoulder and stood up. "Fellow Taoist Yang, I'll go back and make the arrangements. Calm down!"
When Yan Ruyu left, Yang Bo felt that the explanation for the misunderstanding was unclear. The other party would probably not be able to help him explain this matter.
Yang Bo wanted to explain the situation, but he couldn't personally run into the street and shout out, "I'm not an illegitimate child."

Gold Snake Island, Yan Residence's meeting hall.
The six Elders sat on either side of him, with no one at the front.
The elder sitting on the left side was the first to speak: "Recently, the Patriarch has been in seclusion. He said that he would come out before the exam, but the time for the exam is approaching, if the Patriarch does not come out, we will not wait!"
"Let's settle the various matters first. Everyone, get ready!"
"Although this trial is a regular trial, everyone should be well aware that the Yan Clan has a new generation of geniuses who have received great attention!"
"We must ensure everyone's safety. We cannot let them be harmed in this trial!"
The Head Elder gave a good lecture, emphasizing the importance of the safety of the trial, and arranged all sorts of tasks.
After a long while, the Head Elder looked at the crowd and asked, "Is there anything else that we need to replenish?"
No one said anything. They had all agreed upon this beforehand. Everyone already knew the contents of the proposal. They had already made their own suggestions long ago.
Seeing that no one said anything, the first elder was about to end.
The Sixth Elder, who was sitting at the very back, suddenly said, "Grand Elder, a new situation has occurred this time!"
The Great Elder was stunned for a moment before he extended his hand to signal, "Speak!"
The Sixth Elder took out a painting from the Universal Bag and placed it on the table, then said: "In Binhai City, a young man suddenly appeared, this is a portrait of a young man!"
"Everyone look, who do you think this young man looks like?"
The group gathered around and stared at the portrait for a long time.
Gasps could be heard in the hall as everyone stared at the portrait in shock.
"Sixth Brother, is this portrait real? "How is this possible? How can it be so similar?"
"I think so too. It's so similar, exactly the same as when he was young!"
"Young man? The Patriarch doesn't have children, right? "
After some discussion, everyone turned to look at the Sixth Elder.
The Sixth Elder nodded and said, "This young man is the Patriarch's illegitimate child!"
"Hiss —"
Gasps could be heard in the hall once again. Although everyone had their suspicions, they were still shocked by this answer.
Everyone knew that the Matriarch of the clan had a violent temper. She was like a lion roaring in the river. If this matter were to be known by the Matriarch, what would happen?
The Great Elder frowned. "Sixth Brother, what do you mean by bringing this portrait over?"
"This is the clan leader's personal matter, we won't participate!"
The Sixth Elder nodded. "I don't want to participate, but don't you think it's too much of a coincidence?"1
"The Yan Clan's trial is about to begin, and this child came looking for you. However, the clan head who should have come out of seclusion has yet to come out. What is the meaning of this?"
Everyone looked at each other. Almost everyone immediately thought that the chief was trying to avoid suspicion!
Why avoid suspicion?
The Patriarch wanted his illegitimate child to participate in the survival training, but he couldn't say it out loud. Thus, he had to let Yang Bo come over first.
With the absence of the Patriarch, the spots to participate were determined by the six Elders. This was equivalent to pushing a hot potato into the hands of the six of them!
"What should we do? Is the child allowed to attend? "
"We can't let him join, we can't just join as he pleases!"
"Third brother, you have to be responsible for your words. When the Patriarch comes out, he will get even with you!"
"Let me tell everyone a piece of news. This kid is very talented, and he recently acquired the Immortal Dao Flower Tomb!"
After a commotion, the Great Elder finally decided, "Let him participate!"
"Everyone, don't bring up this matter again. Just pretend it didn't happen!"
