The unexpected newcomer turned out to be none other than Zhao Lusi's younger brother, Zhao Zhiwei. Despite his status as the youngest of the three siblings in the prestigious Zhao line, his internal cultivation base was entirely on par with that of his elder sister, sitting firmly at the peak of the primary Origin Realm. This stark parity in their development indicated to any observant cultivator that the heavy-set young man either possessed a far greater reservoir of natural talent than his older sister, or he had regular access to some highly precious, restricted cultivation resources that Zhao Lusi could not utilize for some unknown reason. After carefully analyzing the intricate internal dynamics of the high-born clan, Kai Syaoran decided that the latter reasoning was highly far-fetched; a family of their immense status would rarely display such blatant bias between siblings of the direct line without a severe political cause.
