Red Cloud sat to one side, smiling as he transmitted to Wu Chu, "If you lure Duobao away, be careful that after Senior Brother Tongtian becomes a Sage, he'll come running over to beat you up..."
Zhen Yuanzi, beside them, sensed their transmission and joined in.
"That fellow Tongtian can be sent away with a single meal and some wine," Wu Chu said with a smile.
After a pause, he added, "Besides, I never intended to lure him away. When Tongtian teaches disciples, he only imparts cultivation methods; he does not teach them how to conduct themselves. Tongtian is willful, while Yuanshi follows rules. Once they become Sages, Tongtian will sooner or later grow unable to tolerate Yuanshi.

"It's not that I want to meddle. I simply don't want Tongtian to clash with the Heavenly Court in the future." Wu Chu sighed softly.

Zhen Yuanzi said with a smile, "For the sake of the Primordial Land, you truly worry yourself sick."
