Disciples from the legitimate lineage of Dragon Tiger Mountain mostly start their cultivation at the Refining Realm, some even as blank slates, knowing nothing of cultivation.
For someone like Zhou Dao to enter at the True Realm and demonstrate an invincible stance from the start would naturally raise suspicions.
"What? When someone from your Tao Vein exhibits talent, it's because they're blessed by ancestors, but when it's someone from another house, their background is questionable?" Wan Faxiang said with a cold laugh.
With a wave of his hand, he blocked Xu Lingkong's probing gaze and shielded Zhou Dao behind him, like a mother hen protecting her chick.
"To tell you the truth, this lad is a successor secretly cultivated by my Spiritual Vein... His natural talents are rare throughout history..."
At this point, a smug expression crept onto Wan Faxiang's rough face.
"To cultivate this kid, I've exhaustively poured my heart and soul into it, neglecting sleep and food..."
"Hmm!?"
