Qin Mu regarded Haotian calmly, his expression unruffled.
Others might not know, but he knew very well.
In the future, Hongjun would appoint Haotian as ruler of the Three Realms.
"With a temperament like his..."
"Why would the Dao Ancestor choose him?"
Qin Mu pondered to himself.
But after a moment's thought, he returned to his usual composure.
He understood that Hongjun might not have appointed Haotian to rule the Three Realms because he thought highly of him.
It was just like East King Duke, whom Hongjun had previously appointed as Head of Male Immortals.
On the surface, he had the title of someone personally chosen by the Dao Ancestor.
But in reality, he might merely have been a catalyst to advance the tribulation.
Putting those thoughts aside, Qin Mu spoke coolly:
"Go on."
"What did the Dao Ancestor send you here to find me for?"
Qin Mu said this in an utterly calm tone, but to Haotian, his words rang out like thunder from the ninth heaven.
On top of that, the faint, almost imperceptible aura emanating from Qin Mu made Haotian tremble uncontrollably.
To Haotian, it felt as though he were standing before a Saint.
After a brief moment of stunned silence, Haotian quickly recovered and said respectfully:
"Senior Brother, the Dao Ancestor sent me to ask you to visit Zixiao Palace. He said he has important matters to discuss with you!"
Qin Mu frowned slightly at this.
"He wants me to go to Zixiao Palace to discuss something important?"
Qin Mu hesitated to himself.
He had already had a vague idea when he sensed Haotian's arrival.
Hongjun might already know that he had attained the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm.
After a brief moment's thought, Qin Mu nodded.
"Very well. I understand."
"Go back for now.
