Seeing that the man was still trying to negotiate with him at this point, Liu Xiaoyuan snorted and said, "At this point, you're still trying to negotiate with me? Do you think you have the right?"
The man said, "I know I'm not in a position to negotiate with you right now, but this information I have will definitely be very useful to you."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Then tell me about it."
Seeing the man speak with such certainty, Liu Xiaoyuan was very curious about what kind of information could be useful to him.
The man immediately said, "Senior, you must promise me that if I tell you, you will spare my life and let me leave."
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Alright, I promise you. As long as you tell me this news, I will definitely spare your life."
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the man immediately looked at Liu Xiaoyuan and asked, "Is what you said true, senior?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "I'm a man of my word, so don't worry, I won't lie to you."

Thinking this, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately asked, "Where did you overhear that?"
The man said, "Yesterday, the old man and his granddaughter were eating and resting here. I overheard their conversation and was planning to go back to the sect tonight to report it."
Liu Xiaoyuan continued, "Did they say where to look for the Evil-Slaying Sword?"
The man said, "The old man seemed very wary and immediately told his granddaughter not to talk about it anymore, so I don't know where to look for the Evil-Slaying Sword."
"Which direction did they go?" Liu Xiaoyuan then asked.
The man said, "They went southeast. I didn't follow them to their exact destination because I realized that their cultivation level was higher than mine. If I had followed them, I would definitely have been discovered."
This information was very useful to Liu Xiaoyuan, because the man's words told Liu Xiaoyuan that the old man in the Sword Pavilion knew the whereabouts of the Evil-Slaying Sword.
When Liu Xiaoyuan met this old man last time, he felt that the old man should know the whereabouts of the Evil-Slaying Sword, but the old man was unwilling to say.
