Just Being Talkative

Who would not want a secret art, even if it were cruel? Would any of the lords present not want it?

He continued walking. He did not want to stay in the same place as Qian Jiyun and Fu Ming anymore.

Their conversation was clearly intended to divert attention away from the search for Lord Bai Ze. The only explanation was that they wanted to monopolize the secret art.

Did they think he could not tell?

"Yes, my Lord," the guardian replied and followed him.

"Lord Shang really looks like he's determined to get it." The lords smiled when they saw Shang Ningyi leave in a hurry with his subordinate. They could tell he was going to send someone to look for Lord Bai Ze.

Although they also wanted to find Lord Bai Ze and obtain the secret art, they were far from reaching a point where obtaining it was an absolute necessity.
