I remembered the first time I met Grandmaster.
Back then, I had told him about the Patriarch performing the Rite of Transmission for me in a dream, and I had also shown him the token the Patriarch had given me.
He had been very excited, as though he had spotted a treasure.
Later, the Patriarch told me that the jade pendant had been made from a Mohist School token.
And that token was actually the Mohist School's Juzi Token. In ancient times, when the Mohist Sect still existed, the Juzi Token served as a symbol of the Mohist School Juzi's authority, allowing its bearer to issue commands to Mohist School disciples throughout the country.
Only after I joined Grandmaster and the others did I learn what the Juzi Token meant, so I had never dared take out the jade pendant and show it to Zhang Rong and the others.
Perhaps in ancient times, the Juzi Token had been equivalent to the imperial jade seal, but now it was merely a token.
Because we could not represent the Mohist Sect.
Yet now, Grandmaster had actually spoken the Patriarch's name.
I was utterly shocked.
"How do you know the Patriarch's name?"
"He passed away when he was very young."
Grandmaster nodded and said calmly, "If I remember correctly, your Patriarch, Tang Zhui, passed away at twenty-three. I know because he was my father. My biological father."
I sprang off the sofa in shock, my eyes wide.
Grandmaster was actually... the Patriarch's son?
The Patriarch was his biological father?
"How is that possible!"
"Grandmaster, how can that be possible!"
I was getting a little too worked up.
Grandmaster sighed. "That's the truth. He was indeed my biological father, but I don't remember him very well. Strictly speaking, I don't remember him at all,
