While everyone was still envious of the future prospects of the Fu family's grandfather and grandson, True Master Qideng was genuinely envious of Luo Chen.
In fact, he didn't even bother with the usual superficial courtesy and directly voiced his request!
"I wonder if Friend Luo can part with the Tianji Pill?"
On the mountain path, Luo Chen stopped walking.
So it was for this!
No wonder he had been puzzled as to why True Master Qideng would stand up for him against the pressure from so many clans. It turned out he had his eyes on that Tianji Pill.
And the timing was just right, neither early nor late.
It was as if he had been waiting for Luo Chen to appear, showing that Qideng had been planning for a long time.
True Master Qideng took two more steps, and upon noticing Luo Chen had stopped, he too halted.
