"So that's why everything was going too smoothly." Lai Mingjie only sighed before watching Qin Jingjing greet his father and their other relatives instead. He then turned away and leaned on the wall to think. "Rou is in the belly of the beast..."
His hands balled tightly as they were left at his sides. He knew exactly what Qin Jingjing meant by that: Xu Rouguang was inside Nuwa's core, and he would be subjected to the decimation of her full power. Chartreuse and the others might not know yet; he should at least tell her since she was good enough to come see him right after.
Then again, if he met with Chartreuse again, he would have to answer her questions by then. How would he be a Sacred Guardian? He never agreed to receive Nuwa's powers after he died by General Xu's hands so how did he become connected to her like that? Moreover, if he was a Sacred Guardian, then he should be able to circulate heaven and earth energy... which he could not.
