Eventually

After glancing at the group, Hao'er turned to the City Lord. "City Lord, I need to speak with them privately."

"Very well. I'll have tea brought to you." The City Lord replied, excusing himself.

"Young Master's surname is Xuanyuan?"

Following introductions, the Sect Master looked at Hao'er, then at the twins, his mind filled with wonder.

How could such young children be accompanied by a guard of such unremarkable strength?

The silver wolf, however, was clearly a formidable presence. What kind of family would send these children to the Lower Realm?

"Indeed," Hao'er replied, adding, "We are from the Upper Realm."

The sect members exchanged glances, unsurprised, as they had already suspected as much. However, it was clear that Hao'er had anticipated their arrival.

"Since you are from the Upper Realm, how did you arrive here? And what do you wish to discuss?" the Sect Master asked.
