Xie Xuanyi stared at Xie Sheng, with a hint of mockery in his tone.
Xie Sheng's face was pale, his expression blank.
If seeing his father could bring him a bit of peace of mind,
the sight of this unfamiliar shadow
plunged him into complete disarray.
But for Xie Xuanyi, it was entirely the opposite.
The moment he saw the residual Divine Thought of Great True Master Chong Kan, he remembered the "details" he had overlooked during the great competition at the Sword Palace.
Daoist Zhu, the Incense Fire Pavilion Master, was a disciple of Great True Master Chong Kan...
Xie Xuanyi had always been curious.
Did Daoist Zhu expend such great effort solely to snatch Xie Sheng away from the Sword Palace?
The Taoist path values causality and fate.
There is a cause for every effect.
The Incense Fire House was sparsely populated; Daoist Zhu was isolated and without strong backing. His descent from the mountain to find Prince Jiangning was hardly in line with Taoist principles...
Unless.
