Cao Zhen looked at the demeanor of the Wen Family's Ancestral Elder and whispered, "You may speak freely about his situation. Since I have promised Immortal Lord Yan Hua to take him as my disciple, I will certainly do so."
The Wen Family's Ancestral Elder received Cao Zhen's assurance and then spoke, "Shuhua has been too rebellious; perhaps this is our fault. We have found many teachers for him to teach him the path of calligraphy and painting, but he says they are unworthy to be his teachers.
Furthermore, he likes to be alone, staying in his room to study the way of calligraphy and painting, seldom cultivating. He has yet to achieve inner core formation."
"Not achieving inner core formation is actually beneficial; this way, it will be easier when I teach him." Cao Zhen raised his hand and pointed outward, saying, "Let's go, take me to see him. Meanwhile, you can inform your family that I am an old friend of Yan Hua and have come to deliver resources at his request."
