"Oh?"
Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Zhou Haitang appeared somewhat astonished.
After all, he was a Grandmaster of the Tianren Sect, and to have his personal invitation refused was unexpected.
However, considering what his apprentice had just said, this youth's ability to approach the candle flame without disturbing it demonstrated a solid foundation in martial arts. Once he steps into the Fifteen Li Realm, his chances of advancing to the Heavenly Human Realm would be much greater than those so-called cultivation prodigies.
Such talent, if not a prodigy, must have been nurtured by a prestigious sect.
"Buying a painting? What painting?"
Zhou Haitang asked with a slight lift of his eyebrows.
Li Hao shook his head slightly and replied, "The painting is in Bai Chunhai's possession, I'll need your assistance to introduce me."
"You seek him out not to become an apprentice, but only to ask for a painting?"
"Yes."
