Since a different person was to negotiate, there was no need to sit idly any longer. Ji Fu stood up, intending to move to the inner hall. But before entering, he seemed to remember something and stopped his steps. Turning back, he advised Tang Luo, "With such talent, you should focus more on the martial path. Such schemes and strategies will only exhaust your energy and cloud your Dao Heart. On the road to becoming a king, every second counts; don't fall behind."
In any case, these words were indeed heartfelt, but in Tang Luo's view, power without mental balance is just a weapon without its own will, and those in power who only valued schemes and were weak against the wind were too easily manipulated. Therefore, in his eyes, those who venerate either martial power or cunning alone are both flawed paths.
Ultimately, it was just a difference in philosophy, with no clear superiority. Tang Luo could still feel the good intentions behind Ji Fu's persuasion.
