Hearing Dong Tianshu's words, Liang simply smiled. "Brother Tianshu, you said I could be considered part of the family, but your eyes don't seem to agree."
Dong Tianshu's gaze sharpened, narrowing as he stared at Liang for a long while. "How confident is Brother Liang in facing an early-stage Void Return Realm expert?"
Liang wasn't fazed. He shrugged casually. "One hundred percent. At the very least, we'd be equals."
Dong Tianshu inhaled deeply, his expression unreadable. He had expected confidence from Liang, but hearing it directly from him still left him impressed.
After a brief pause, he nodded slowly. "Very well... I assume Brother Liang is aware of the opening of the Heavenly Will Palace?"
Liang nodded nonshelantly."I'm well aware, indeed."
He felt a sense of relief that Dong Tianshu had openly brought up the topic. If he hadn't, he could have easily asked Dong Rui to inquire with her father.
