The Most Powerful Bodyguard-Chapter 789: Everyone’s Here

As Zhou Hanyun brought Ao Tian into the lounge, Yang Yan followed in.

Their relationship was both as mentor and friend.

Though he spoke tough words, if Ao Tian needed Yang Yan's help with anything, even braving hell and high water, Yang Yan would do it without hesitation.

"I say, how did you end up here? And, the Power of Origin thing, I suppose you know about it?"

Yang Yan sat beside Ao Tian and lowered his voice to ask.

"Heh! Otherwise, why do you think I came out?"

Ao Tian rolled his eyes, then smiled and said:

"And it's not just me, those other guys are out too. But most of them aren't in the United States."

"Damn! You really are a jerk!"

Hearing this, Yang Yan couldn't help but curse:

"Such important matters, why didn't you tell me last time? If I hadn't accidentally met one, I would still be in the dark."

No wonder he reacted so strongly.

They say it's easy to change rivers and mountains, but hard to change one's nature.

This Ao Tian guy, sure enough, is still as unlikable as ever!

For such important news, he didn't even bother to inform me ahead of time.

What kind of person is this?

"Tch—how do you expect me to tell you something so absurd?"

Ao Tian squinted, replied with irritation:

"Should I have told you there's such a thing as the Power of Origin in this world?"

"And that they're connected with the legendary immortality?"

"I... you..."

Yang Yan opened his mouth but couldn't find words to say.

Ao Tian was right; if he had said this the last time they met, he'd probably think Ao Tian was talking nonsense.

Some things need to be seen to be believed.

Just like superpowers.

If you haven't seen it with your own eyes, would you believe such things exist?

Of course, you'd think it was a groundless rumor and dismiss it as a joke.

"So what are your plans from here on?"

Staring at Ao Tian intently, Yang Yan asked seriously:

"Are you going to look for those things or sit back and watch? And, how exactly are those things used?"

Ao Tian chuckled coldly:

"What else can we do? Of course, we'll just sit back and watch!"

"Besides, with just one of those things, they're of no use."

"Only when all of them appear will they be useful."

"Otherwise, these things are just slightly unusual collectibles."

Ao Tian spoke nonchalantly, while Yang Yan fell into contemplation.

According to his view, having just one was useless, and naturally, immortality wouldn't be a topic.

However, gathering them all would be a considerably difficult task.

Not to mention not knowing where they'll pop up, even if you got your hands on them, others might have their own schemes.

"So, how many of these things have appeared? And who holds them?"

After thinking for a while, Yang Yan lifted his head, looking at Ao Tian, and asked seriously.

"Not many have appeared so far."

Ao Tian explained:

"As far as I know, you only have half a piece."

"As for whether others have any, I don't know."

Yang Yan shook his head in resignation, dismissively said:

"That's useless! Let me change the question, is there any pattern to their appearance?"

Ao Tian chuckled softly, teased:

"Yan, you're regressing more and more!"

"If those things appeared regularly, would you think I'd have the leisure to sit and chat with you here?"

Upon hearing Ao Tian's words, Yang Yan realized he wouldn't get answers today.

The way this guy works is annoying, and his talking style is just as off-putting.

In summary, the longer he stayed, the more uncomfortable he felt.

One must say, the celebrity effect is powerful.

Currently, there was a huge crowd outside.

And once Hongmen's people arrived, Blitz somehow got the news and hurried over.

As the new clan leader of the Rothschild family, his appearance naturally stirred curiosity.

On his way out, top tabloid photographers were discreetly following him.

Upon reaching Zhou's Jewelry, he publicly presented a valuable gift with the disciple rite, instantly elevating Zhou's Jewelry to the peak.

Although, in the Hidden World, that guy was just an ordinary powerhouse.

However, in terms of influence among ordinary people, even someone like Ao Tian, one of the Four Emperors, pales in comparison.

"Heh, you all have excellent timing. Can't see you usually, and today everyone shows up."

Seeing people coming in outside, Yang Yan couldn't help but remark.

Among the arrivals were Kashu, Fenrir, and Jormangand.

The Dragon King and Human-Demon King were there too.

As for that Blitz guy, Yang Yan just outright ignored him.

"Hey, mentor, did you really pretend not to see me?"

"Last time, you called and asked me to get things done, I did it flawlessly."

"You wouldn't be so cold-hearted, using me then tossing me aside?"

Blitz came over, looking pitiful at Yang Yan, expressing his grievances. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Buzz off! Who said I was cold-hearted?"

Yang Yan raised his eyebrows, coldly said:

"Don't you have any idea about the things you did behind my back?"

Hearing this, Blitz was slightly taken aback, then sheepishly smiled.

He always took issue with Yang Yan not marrying his cousin.

So, out of selfishness, he's been working behind the scenes to persuade his cousin.

And that would have been enough.

But the most baffling part to Yang Yan was, after getting drunk once, this idiot even called him.

As luck would have it, Han Ruyu answered that call.

As for the rest, it's easy to imagine how miserable Yang Yan's life became.

"Alright, let's go! Head outside. Since we're all here, let's join the ribbon-cutting ceremony!"

Upon hearing the sudden quietness outside, Yang Yan knew the ribbon-cutting ceremony was starting.

"Oh, if you're asking me so much, let me go cut the ribbon for you!"

"How kind of me, always unable to turn down requests!"

"Oh... Yan! I have to say, you've got a massive presence! Even someone like me has come to cut the ribbon for you."

Ao Tian patted Yang Yan on the shoulder affectionately, said proudly.

"Buzz off! And you have the nerve to say that?"

Yang Yan raised his eyebrows, said impatiently:

"Look at what others have brought as gifts, then look at you?"

"Coming to such an event empty-handed, only someone as thick-skinned as you could do it."
