"Young Master Gong, do not be rude!" Zilan's Second Uncle spoke up. The boy across from him, despite his mismatched attire, did not carry himself like a mere child from the mountains. According to his niece, this boy had saved her, which meant he had a debt of gratitude to Zilan. Moreover, he appeared to be only at the Qi Binding Realm, yet he had managed to survive in this forest for so long—something even the talented members of the Zi Family struggled to do. The younger generation they brought along had lower realms than Zilan, and when they returned from the Cloud Mist Swamp, they were in a pitiful state. Not to mention that they were near the Yan Luo River, where the Demon Beasts and Chimeras were far more powerful than those faced by the Zi Family's young members during their training. If what Zilan said was true, this boy could easily kill Demon Beasts and Chimeras comparable to those at the Ning Shen Realm; that was truly remarkable. After some analysis, he concluded that this boy was extraordinary.
"Little brother He, Lan'er has already explained the situation in this forest to me. Since you also intend to leave this forest, we happen to be heading out as well. If you don't mind, why not travel together? It would be good to have someone to look out for each other on the road. What do you think?" Zilan's Second Uncle had sharp eyes and wanted to take this opportunity to recruit Mo Wen. If he could bring him into the family and nurture him a bit, his future achievements would surely surpass those of the Zi Family's talents in this group.
Zilan's Second Uncle, Zi Tianyang, was quite a figure within the entire Zi Family. He left home at a young age to venture into the world, befriending many Jianghu Heroes along the way. His travels spanned various continents before he returned home to assist his father in managing family affairs. In the family, he was known for his kindness and lack of pretension, earning him much praise. However, what truly made him famous were his piercing eyes; every junior he scrutinized turned out exceptional. He was responsible for recruiting talent for the family, and his selection process was unconventional—most of those he chose had average qualifications but later achieved great success. Thus, Zi Tianyang earned the nickname "Poison Eye Zi Tianyang" in Jianghu circles. Some even claimed that during his travels he received a legacy from an ancient power that granted him eyes capable of seeing through a person's life; whether this was true or not remained unanswered by him. At this moment, he had set his sights on Mo Wen; the oddly dressed boy before him was inscrutable.
"I appreciate your kindness, but my Family Master instructed me to rely solely on my own abilities to leave. Receiving help from Lan'er is already against his orders; if I were to accept further assistance from you, I would surely face punishment from my Family Master," Mo Wen replied. He did not know Zilan's Second Uncle's name and was unaware of Zi Tianyang's thoughts; he merely assumed others were being polite.
"Oh! May I ask where your master is from?" The Second Master of the Zi Family became interested upon hearing that Mo Wen had a master.
"..." Mo Wen looked troubled.
"If it is inconvenient for you to share, then never mind," Zi Tianyang said upon noticing Mo Wen's discomfort.
"It's not that; it's just that I don't know my master's full name—only that his surname is Lu," Mo Wen thought for a moment and decided to use Old Lu's surname as a shield. However, he couldn't reveal Old Lu's name since he had overheard it and suspected that someone who could spy on his disciple bathing might have done many unscrupulous things as well. If the Zi Family happened to be enemies with Old Lu, revealing his name would be like walking into a trap. Just as Zi Tianyang pondered who this Master Lu could be, Gong Junyan spoke up.
