Steward Sima's sudden appearance, coupled with the exposure of his malicious intent, was troubling.
Given his identity and cultivation realm, he undoubtedly posed a huge threat to the already difficult situation of Wang Chen.
Had it been any other cultivator, they would likely have been scared and would find the days ahead even more daunting.
But Wang Chen wasn't much affected emotionally; his will had long since been tempered to be as firm as a rock. Not to mention a mere director of the Purple Mansion, even if a Golden Core True Person personally arrived, they wouldn't be able to disturb his mind!
As long as the opponent didn't act directly, life would go on as usual.
It was merely a case of meeting force with force and repelling whatever came his way!
However, Wang Chen did become more alert as a result, tightening the nerves that had slightly relaxed before.
