Zhong Yu, who had been sitting calmly beside Nan Zhuoran, narrowed his eyes as his thoughts raced.
'Chen Qing's talent is already astonishing, and he's a True Disciple. If he also receives Luo Zhixian's full tutelage and obtains the true inheritance of his Spear Path, wouldn't he be like a tiger that has grown wings?'
This was definitely not good news for the Nine Heavens Lineage.
'He and Chen Qing had already had a falling-out over the distribution of the Nourishing God and Nourishing Soul Pills. If I let him grow stronger…'
Facing the focused gazes of the crowd, Chen Qing grew wary.
'Nan Zhuoran suddenly brought this up in public. His intention is definitely not as simple as a show of goodwill or an attempt to win me over.'
'Is he trying to add a "Nine Heavens" connection to my True Martial Lineage identity to ease the tension?'
'Or is he deliberately putting me in the spotlight, trying to attract more attention and even jealousy?'
'Or is there some deeper purpose?'
