Xu Tiance could not have been more satisfied with this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest-not only had he established a connection akin to fusion with the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, but he had also drawn the attention of the Seven Elemental Gods in the Divine Realm. All seven had bestowed divine trials upon him, and he had even managed to bring two people back with him along the way.
Although Xiao Hongchen was privately wary of Zhang Lexuan and Wu Ming, believing that they might very well become spies and stab the Sun Moon Empire in the back someday... Xu Tiance had never intended to let Zhang Lexuan access any important information in the first place.
In Xu Tiance's mind, Zhang Lexuan and Ju Zi were entirely different.
Ju Zi had just suffered the destruction of her family when he brought her to the Sun Moon Empire and enrolled her in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. She was also a native of the Sun Moon Empire, so he had no need to worry that she would do anything detrimental. Later, he would gradually let Ju Zi become involved in some high-level affairs, but he would never use her as his glove the way Xu Tianran had in the original story.
As for Zhang Lexuan... he had brought her back purely because of her silver moon martial soul.
The Sun Moon Empire was named Sun Moon because of the two martial souls passed down through its imperial family: the sun and the silver moon. Now, imperial descendants with the silver moon martial soul were scarce, and no new bearer of it had appeared in many years. Bringing Zhang Lexuan back was solely for the sake of passing on the silver moon martial soul.
