'Everything is going as I planned. Novan, you are doing great.'
The one way for Leo to get touch in with the Sect Leader was by creating a commotion as big as letting his disciple get enlightenment.
Enlightenment was not something that every cultivator could gain in their lifetime and those who got enlightenment would achieve great things in their life considering the fact that they wouldn't be killed before they were fully grown.
Even though Novan was already a cultivation genius for becoming a Foundation Establishment Cultivator before the age of 20, he was still not worthy enough to become the Sect Leader's personal disciple.
However, after the news about Novan going through the Enlightenment reaches the ears of the Sect Leader, he would definitely be interested to come out of his cultivation chambers to check on Novan.
