Ever since the Golden Thunder Sect incident, he's become increasingly aware of Sikong Yan's terrifying cunning beneath his mad exterior.
Dealing with such an old fox requires utmost caution.
After all, through their previous conversation, traps were laid everywhere in his words.
The seemingly casual inquiry about the Golden Thunder Sect was actually laced with hidden dangers.
If he answered along those lines, it would mean exposing himself as being in the Eastern Domain and fully participating in the Golden Thunder Sect battle.
Although the Taiqing Sect's forbidden zone matter was a secret, only a handful of people had access, which would instantly narrow down the scope of their identities.
Luckily, he claimed ignorance, after all, the forbidden zone affair might have been witnessed by others, like the Second Uncle.
"Heh..."
Sikong Yan's laugh was tinged with amusement upon hearing Zhou Qing's response.
