His last syllable rose with an invisible pressure, frightening the person into a hurried shake of the head, "No, no, I was just asking casually."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but smack his own lips, chiding himself for such foolish curiosity.
Seeing he had managed to deceive them, Li Yuanming inwardly sighed with relief. Thankfully, these people were easy to fool.
If it had been his troublesome disciples, they would have exposed him in no time. A bunch of rebellious pupils who knew nothing of respecting their master.
Hmph. Though his practical skills were lacking, his theoretical knowledge was impeccable.
Seizing this rare opportunity for formal learning, everyone listened with rapt attention.
