Within Yao Chenzi's courtyard.
After listening to him, Qin Ming felt that it sounded rather like a massive pitfall.
Of course, he was not saying that Yao Chenzi harbored any ill intent; his original intentions were good as well.
Yet judging from his past experiences, those great sects that ruled over entire regions would never be so kind as to freely offer resources for breaking through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage in exchange to itinerant cultivators.
