Tang Jian's heart jolted. "Old Ma, what do you mean?"
Ma Yi Shangren didn't turn around. He merely said in a calm voice:
"I watched the battle today. That Qing Xuan Brat suddenly broke through to the Golden Immortal Realm, but he couldn't have done it on his own."
Hearing this, Tang Jian was even more confused. "What do you mean, he didn't break through on his own?"
Ma Yi Shangren didn't answer right away. Instead, he asked in a grave voice, "Do you know why I came to this realm?"
Tang Jian hurriedly nodded. "To investigate why Yang severed the plane."
"Correct."
Ma Yi Shangren nodded. "The so-called Golden Immortals who appeared in your plane have only one foot across the threshold. Qing Xuan Brat, however, truly stepped into the Golden Immortal Realm. His cultivation is simply unstable, and he hasn't truly mastered the power of that realm yet."
Tang Jian looked surprised. "Old Ma, are you saying Pill Emperor Qing Xuan found an Immortal Method Inheritance?"
"Maybe. Maybe not," Ma Yi Shangren replied.
"What do you mean?" Tang Jian was completely baffled.
"Don't ask. Knowing won't do you any good."
Ma Yi Shangren turned to look at Tang Jian. "Just remember one thing: you'll be fine as long as you don't get greedy and reach for the last piece of meat."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Yi Shangren suddenly vanished.
After Ma Yi Shangren left, Tang Jian's expression turned uncertain. He swallowed hard.
Don't get greedy and reach for the last piece of meat, and you'll be fine.
He understood. The being coveting Qin Guan's Chaos Origin had to be terrifying.
He was only scheming to make money off the Immeasurable Pill Sect, while that person was scheming against everyone.
"Could it be—!"
Tang Jian seemed
