Seeing Shi Shentong's smug smile, a jolt of delight shot through Du Youqian.
"Elder Shi, you've suspected all along that there's something wrong with Wandering Dragon? Then why didn't you permit an investigation?"
Shi Shentong lowered his head again, staring at the bobber drifting on the water's surface. "Haven't I told you this before? Do you not remember? Back at the Elder Council meeting. First, there must be irrefutable proof. Second, this is just a minor issue."
Du Youqian was utterly stunned. "This... A True Disciple possibly colluding with the Demon Race, who could potentially unleash a worldly calamity from the Desolate Abyss—this is a minor issue?"
"Of course it's a minor issue," Shi Shentong said adamantly.
Du Youqian couldn't help but feel a surge of anger. "Then what, in your eyes, constitutes a major issue?"
